[Q] GingerBread menu - Android Themes

Hey guys i have a quick question about the black gingerbread menu, when you click the menu button. I was able to make it black but the writing is black to so u cannot see it, how would i go about changing the font colour of the menu to white?
Thanks !

also need to know this,
sneaky workaround, works mostly is to "swipe" or "slide" your finger across a button to highlight and you can see the text.

you need to edit the xml files within the the framework AFAIK. Lost.prophet and ximmox solved the issue for the GSM Hero.

The answer is in that thread somewhere.... or just ask one of them how they did it.

Phone Dialpad editing expertise needed please??

I have worked fairly extensively on creating my own custom dialers and I really like the look of them on my PPC6600 from Sprint. The one problem I am having is that the numberpad keys that I push seem to remain the light blue color of the original keypad. For instance I have a black button and I press 9 and it turns blue. I can't seem to find the file I need to change in order to change the look. Any help is greatly appreciated

Easy question about M2D

I recently installed a new ROM with M2D, and have a couple questions about it.
I was wondering if it was possible to disable the large finger-enabled menus. For instance under the messages tab, when you press "Menu" (in the bottom right) It pops up options in a fashion that it takes the entire screen up, allowing you to use your finger and forcing you to select an option before you can leave the menu.
Is there a way to get classic menus back with M2D?
Well firstly this is the wrong section to have posted this query, secondly i know about this and it doesnt force you to make an option, you just press menu again to get rid of it. have u actually tried that, nyways hope that helps
This is the bestest double post eva!

My fault as accidentally moved it here out of ROM Development "posted in wrong area" Mind you it's rather general
You can use advanced config to disable menu enhancements.

[?] CM6.1 Lock Screen/Animations

Let me start by saying I tried searching for a solution to this, asked a few people, no avail, so I am posting here hoping somebody has done something along the lines of what I am trying to do. I am having a little trouble with my jog tabs on my lock screen, the left one to be exact. Normally text pops up with "Unlock" or "Answer" when a call is coming in. Since changing my animation to the Bounce Animation found HERE the text has stopped showing. The jog bar does change to the correct color when sliding but no text. I looked through a whole Vanilla Rom of CM6.1 to look for a png that has the text but no luck. My guess it is controlled by XML, any idea on where the correct XML is that would need editing, and how?
Thanks in advance

[Q] No text in pop up selections

I just rooted my Nook Color, and I'm having a strange issue. When I long press on some menus, I will receive the pop up box but the text will be missing.
For example - I open File Manager and long press on a file. The icons appear, but the words are blank. Once I touch the item i want, THEN the text will appear briefly (ie. Copy, Paste)
It's not just on File Manger though - which I've uninstalled/reinstalled.
Any ideas?

This is a problem with the way that the B&N software is themed. The menus where this happens has text, it's just white on white making it in effect invisible. There's not a solution yet that I'm aware of, but in some apps you can hold your finger on the menu options which highlights them, making them legible.
Thanks
Thanks for the reply. I was about to start "unrooting" to see if i'd done something wrong. Other than that, this thing is great!

The phones no longer have a menu button, developers will need to update their apps to incorporate a menu into the UI. For apps that haven't done so, you may see a black bar across the bottom of the screen that will open the menu.
However with many of the replacement roms/kernels, alternative methods have been provided. In the case of the rom you linked, try tapping just above the HTC logo on the bottom of the screen. You want to be aligned horizontally with the logo, and just barely tapping on the screen itself.
