I've been customizing my status bar with the g4 tweaks app and Xposed,
I'm looking for a method or an app which would allow me change white color of the notification cards to grey or black.
Is this possible, Iv done a search and not much came back regarding the actual notification cards..
Thanks in advance
for any help
@Awology I'm looking for the same!!!! Any luck so far?

I really like the color menus found in Aloysius but I just want the menus, not all the changed icons etc.
What would be the best way to get color menus only? Can I remove what I don't want from the zip or has anyone else made a color menu for the EVO yet?
Thank you!
Im just curious as to how to get the coloured icons in the notification area....only the standard ones like wifi signal, phone signal and data etc....as i have flashed many gingerbread roms and was hoping they would change but they still stay stock white/grey (except battery which changed to new gingerbread one
google search uot kitchen
thanks for reply.....but am i being stupid because i cant find where it will replace wifi icon and phone signal....just giving me options for battery , status bar colour and boot splash etc....is there not a more straight forward way of changing wifi signal icon to green like gingerbread...thanks
Check app and theme section. There are many different themes you can apply that will give you the look you need.
Just read carefully as most are ROM specific.

the second page after you change the battery, it asks you what kind of status bar icons you want ..... you get a choice of icons for a black status bar, or ones for a white status bar

Hey Everyone,
I successfully used UOT Kitchen to change battery icon, status bar text color, change the default font on my phone, change pop-up colors, make my drop down notification black and semi-transparent.
However, the one thing that doesn't work is the text on the notification pull down bar is black which is of course unreadable on a black semi-transparent background.
I changed it in UOT Kitchen to Blue. Then I tried doing it over again and changed it to Orange. The end result is still black.
Any help would be appreciated.
Running Stock+ which is Gingerbread based Rom from here on XDA.

Next time please post this questions in the Q/A area:
But from what you are saying the test for "ongoing" notifications are staying black right? like music and things of that nature??? that is because the texts is stored in there own apk. so if you want to change the color of the text you will need to take apart the apk for each app that uses the "ongoing" notification area.
I think I got it
First off, sorry for posting in wrong forum. Thanks for answering and not kicking me out! It won't happen again.
So basically, since the HTC Inc is supposed to have a white pull down notification, most apps make their text black and it would have to be changed in each app (text messaging, google voice texts, etc).
I did run the app Cache Cleaner which posts its results in the notification and they surprisingly showed up in the color (blue) that I had chosen in UOT. But nothing else has, so I guess I just need to change my background color to white or something that works with black text.
Thanks,

No worries on the kick. i dont flame.
The notifications are broken down into 2 groups. "ongoing" and "notification". If its a notification that is controlled by the framework-res.apk it will be themed from the UOT most market apk and gapps use the ongoing section so they are held within there respected apk. the only way around it is to do what you said. have a white bg or if you go and change each apk. sorry. :/
guys i used the UOT kitchen, could i replace the mod'd framework-res.apk by jus using the root explorer?? i mean paste it in the system folder den set permissions n then move it to the system/framework/ folder??
Had this issue to. Tried everything to change the text color with no luck. I finally gave up and settled for a transparent white pulldown. It dosent look to bad but is a bit of a contrast from my mostly black transparent theme.

I had this same issue for a while. For me I found a way around it, maybe it will work for you. I ended up making the nav bar an image and the different colored icons part of the nav bar image. Then I made the actual icons transparent. As long as the icon order is the same as the order of the icons in the nav bar image, you would be good to go. You can see some examples here http://www.galaxynexusmods.com/nav-status-bars
Hope that helped. Let me know if you have any questions

I'm currently running Radiance RC1.2.1 The notification and quick settings pull down screen is white and semi transparent. I want to change it to completely transparent with no color at all. I've gone through the tweaks, no luck. I've gone through the UOT kitchen and can't get it to work. I'd really appreciate any help.
