i've managed to change images and icons, but I can't work out what files relate to text on the status bar, can someone put me in the right direction.
Thanks,
Luke.

If using it as a theme for CM5, they can be changed in spare parts.
If making the theme from source you'll need to change the hex colors in
frameworks/base/core/res/res/layout/status_bar.xml (The ticker and notification text color in status bar)
frameworks/base/services/java/com/android/server/status/StatusBarIcon.java (Clock color)
If you plan on doing it through hex, here is a guide by enatefox: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4847758&postcount=2
You can also try using the colorchange.jar: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=535630

thanks mate, really helpful stuff. well on my way now

[Q] Hide the Clock in Gingerbread?

Hi
Does anyone know the location of the StatusBarPolicy.smali file within Gingerbread 2.3.2?
I'm trying to hide the Clock from the Status Bar, In Froyo this used to be done by editing the Services.jar file but that doesn't appear to be the case anymore.
If anyone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.
Thanks

messing with framework-res.apk question

so, im new to theming... and im working toward getting a black status bar... i have pulled 'framework-res.apk' from my phone and modified 'status_bar_background.png' to black and replaced it in the apk... is there anything else that i need to do, or can i safely push it back to my phone and test it? all i want to do change is the status bar color from that icky blue to black... not change the color of the clock/text, etc... just want to be positive i can go forward, thanks
i figured the general section would be best, since i dont have a working black status bar yet to share with everyone... my apologies if it should have been posted in themes instead
EDIT 1: for the record, i am running the stock deodexed 890 from rootzwiki... i tried it, and it booted fine, but the only black in the status bar is the notifications area in the drop down... going to continue on my quest to get a fully black status bar lol... will continue to post edits of my advancements as i make them

[Q] Deactivating status bar toggles

Does someone know of a way to remove the status bar toggles? Is there a file to modify in systemUI.apk or framework-res.apk?

yes there is a way unfortunate im not that skilled

I'm listening... I'd love to get rid of the mobile data toggle. The others are useful, that one isn't.

I hope there is someone out there knowing the answer as I like to use my own toggles app and having two of them doesn't look goog at all.
Also I saw this screenshot showing a blue clock in the expanded notification bar and would like to know what to modify to change the color of the clock and the date? (this came from a Mod which included the toggles, I would only need the file and passage to edit for changing the color)
Any help is appreciated.

Help needed with Status Bar

Hi
Would somebody (tell me how to/be kind enough to do it for me ) change a few things, I assume in SystemUI.apk. I have done some switching of icons to try and attain the GE/Holo Blue icon colours. I have done them all, at least the ones I need but I have 3 issues which go beyond my knowledge:
1) I want the status bar clock to match, it's currently white.
2) I want to hide my operator logo from the lockscreen and notification pulldown.
3) I would like my notification background to be a little transparent.
If somebody could help, with any of them, that would be great.
Thanks
