Hello everyone, I am hoping some more developers will try to help out and keep this project alive. Hoping these issues might be figured out by someone.
Issues:
3G and 1X dormant icons are default HTC as well as USB
White clock text
Clear button is dark with black text
Some things worth noting. The stat_sys_data_usb.png icon and the stat_notify_sync_error.png icon are already in /system/framework/framework-res.apk but the weird problem is for some reason these icons are not showing up correctly, and instead they default to HTC. Other icons in framework-res and com.htc.resources are not doing this.
I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR ANY OF THE WORK THAT HAS BEEN DONE SO FAR.

There is a TON of info on editing task bars and other theme elements in the cdma hero section mater of fact a good deal of their stuff works with various eris roms. Some of the roms running over there are legend or eris based now we have ports based off the Sprint roms so theyre themes and various add ons working also (ive tried a few) as far as text and icons I believe it has to do with the .9pngs etc...give it a read and there are a ton of helpful heroc fellas. chubz, vince just to name a few.
Yeah I've been waiting for someone to come up with a fix for the clock font color, but it seems to be fairly difficult to find? Or perhaps other things are being worked on by the limited amount of devs we've got on the Eris.
you forgot me the guy who was trying to finish it, and posted it for all!:d

I'm a super noob at this, but I spent part of the day yesterday trying to fix my title bar with the icons I wanted in the Aloysis ROM. It seemed like the text color and icon image files were referenced by xml files? Have you tried looking there for fixes to your issues?
For the record there is a hero theme the Aloysis 4.1 ROM is based off of which may be configured close to what u want. I wanted to configure mine to look more like yours but I got frustrated and gave up.

Also, I've made quite the progress, this is where I am now. All I have left is the "Clear" button.

I'm very new to android dev/hacking and I hope this is acceptable conduct (taking someone else's theme and putting a different spin on it) but I really liked Frost Remix NexTheme but I wanted a different battery notification icon, updated charging icons and thanks to some prodding from ludeboy, I felt the default settings text should be changed so I made my own spin on a theme which I'm posting here for your using pleasure.
Change Log...
10/2/2010
Theme Frost Remix from 9/27/2010 (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788294)
Changed secondary text from baby blue to green
Replaced battery icons and updated charging icons from "D" variant of Fightspit's Super Circle Battery mod (Thanks for porting s44 - forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=791886&page=3)
As soon as a figure out how to turn this theme into a rom I will and I'll get that posted but for the time being, here I have attached the framework-res and twframework-res.
To install - copy both files to your system/framework folder and restart your phone.
****This has been tested on my phone and works fine but as always - use at your own risk but let me know if you run into any problems...and always back up your originals ******
Big Thanks to ludeboy for the request to identify what xmls to change for color mods (I'm fairly up to speed on how the theme engine works), frostman88 for the initial theme and s44 for porting over the battery mod!
Works great bud! Just installed it and love it. Any way you can make the battery indicator, wifi meter, vibrate phone "lines", and the icons from the pull down menu when selected the same green as the text? I have a green type theme going on and would love it all to match. If not its cool since I have my notification bar hidden on home screen anyways but figured I could ask. Thanks for your work.

I'll look into that - I like the green on black and do also currently like the green thing going on. I'm going to do some more tinkering but my creative is lacking from a graphical standpoint so if anyone has great ideas - If I like them I'll look at them and either roll another flavor or build it into what I have here.

Short Answer -
framework-res.apk\res\color-hdpi\zzz_tw_secondary_text_sub.xml
framework-res.apk\res\color\zzz_tw_secondary_text_sub.xml
(I think the first file is the only file that actually had to be modified but the second file was a few steps of color different from the first so I just modified both of them)
Long Answer -
It took me a little time to get familiar with how the themeing (styles, layouts, etc) worked but I think I have a pretty good handle on this. To figure out what controlled the text color I dumped the settings.apk, identified the layouts and styles, traced the styles backwards until I worked my way back into the framework-res.apk and then located that it was pointing to the color file of zzz_tw_secondary_text_sub
I spent about 5 hours digging but now knowing the how the colors, layout and styles work I could most likely have done it in 15 minutes.
Ah right, you know I saw it pointed to a specific color, like color1, color2, color3, but I had been up for about 19 hours with 5 hours of sleep and really did not feel like trying to trace it back to whatever else apk.
So overall I had about 30 min to dig through the xmls.
Darn, I'm so peeved right now. In the time it took for you to post this up,
I went and Odin Restored my phone, re-clean deodex + aosp'ed it,
used the Black Mod theme in Metamorph,
and then applied the D Circle Battery,
and backed it up like 5 times. If i'd have seen this sooner, it would have saved me so much time
Thanks for this. I really like Frostman's theme, but I did want the circle battery indicator, and I also really like the green text.
Works good. I like the green and the battery. Thanks

I copied the battery mod into the System/framework folder, first, and it borked my wallpaper back to the underwater live wallpaper, and then I kept getting FCs when I tried to open Root Explorer again. After I restarted, I was able to get the other file in, using Root Explorer, and I was able to reset my wallpaper. Nothing big, but I thought you might like to know.

Thanks - I am guessing that could be something to do with root explorer possibly. I do not use root explorer and currently am doing all my pushes using adb. I'll look at root explorer and see if I can explain what happened (guessing maybe a dependency thing but who knows).

good day.
Hi all,
I've made my own "theme" (the word is a bit exaggerated) by using DHD-PowerControl-1.72.405.2_notxt and cook it with UOT.
The result is in blue in the screen below.
But, I'd like to swap it with the one made with the one made by he_stheone64 in PowerNotificationWidget2.2.1 (see the red rectangle in screen below).
The problem is that PowerNotificationWidget2.2.1 changes other things I wouldn't like to be scrashed (like icons above or non-transparent carbon-look background below).
Then I tried to do the same of what I did for the white one : cooking framework-res.apk. But I had the long error log you can also see below.
So, could someone help me to do that swap and perhaps if possible, make the little bars below each toggles a bit more green than blue.
Thanks for your help,
Lim.
I'm working on something similar as well - a notification bar power control, based on the latest 2.1.1 services.jar and the customisation app. The idea is that it's as close to stock framework as possible, so that it can be uploaded to UOT (or otherwise themed with metamorph etc.).
This is mainly just a learning exercise for me in decompiling and modifying files, but if it works I can share it. I find the toggles show up better on a black background than a white one, so hope to include black background as an option - though I think that might break compatibility with UOT kitchen, so there might have to be 2 versions. It's a work in progress, though, depending on my free time, so I can't promise when it'll be done. I'll post here if I get it working though!

Hi Preach,
So far, I managed to swap the toggles png's (taking png's from he_stheone64's file) but no way to find and put the black background.
I would also like to have the little bars below more green than current blue. For this I guess it's in an xml file, but can not find which one (and how to do).
Liamstears told me there's was a mistake he_stheone64 could fix, but it's seems not to the case. He also told me he could help me to fix that, but he certainly doesn't have time.
I don't know in which direction to go but if you have any idea, I would be happy to make tries with you.
Good luck
I made for myself something like this It is a little bit tricked but effect is like on screen. This mod has no transparency in notification but it looks as STOCK as possible cause i prefer stock one
To change colour of those indicators u use app (which is installed with PowerMOD) U got there color picker. With bacground it`s not so easy thats why i tricked it a little removed bacground of toggles (made it transaprent) and set up whole notifiacion with chosen background and effect U see is below:
Will post this mod in my thread tommorow if somebody will need this

Hi Krzysiec,
This is exactly what I'm looking for (and probably the same for Preacher65).
As I can see, your framework-res.apk is cookable in UOT (battery).
Below notification, you manage to keep carbon background instead of white background, is it made with the same tweak ?
Tell us when you post this mod
I`m afraid my mod isn`t compatibile with UOT ... only leamstear framework-res.apk is cookable in UOT. All thing I do is manually changed by me. It is the easiest way for me Guys cook in OUT icons U want and than manually mix them with for ex. my mod. Thats easiest way I make all my icons/mods/ manually automat will never generate icons I like Will post it as soon as possible. The trick is I set up ONE bacground for notification and Power mod ... this is only ONE SINGLE background ... PowerMod background is transparent so wee se background from notification (which is carbon one) So when U slide up notification area U see how background moves behind Toggles But in static position it looks like on the screen (for me PERFECT and AS STOCK AS POSSIBLE)

Ok I downloaded your PowerNotificationMod by Krzysiec but it doesn't look like your screen above (see mine below, where there is the carrier and the DesireHD mark at the bottom).
And I have to find a way to include the icons (see other screen) I cooked from UOT which has more than battery icons..
LOL Wrong file Will fix it in a minute
About icons... just pull them off from framework-res U cooked in UOT and drag and drop into my framework For battery U must replace all needed files and three compiled xml if U got different animation than BASIC from UOT.

Ok, for this, I can search for all the considered icons by comparing with the one shown in UOT and I guess they will crush over the existing stock one.
Is that right ?

I'm not sure to understand what you mean.
My battery icons are the one you see in my previous screen called "Version B, White numbers". So I think this is the basic from UOT. Aren't they ?
If not what are these 3 compiled xml and from wher do I take them ?
EDIT : I saw that you updated your thread at 14:55 (CET) so I thought you updated the file. But it's still the same look... Perhaps you didn't update ?
Fixed version (i hope so) is UP try it out
About icons...
Unpack framework-res.apk and go to res/drawable-hdpi(-v4) folder. U got there every signle icon. Names of them are the same as mine (they must be the same to sytem recognize them via xml)
For battery:
U will see plenty of icons in res/drawable-hdpi(-v4) folder too... as many icons as percentage in Your battery U will see it when U unpack Your framework.
About XMLs U need to pull three xmls from Your cooked UOT framework from res/drawable:
-stat_sys_battery.xml
-stat_sys_battery_charge.xml
-zzz_stat_sys_battery_1.xml
Those files are responisble for whole battery indicator. Just replace them with Your cooked one.
EDIT: should be fine now :/ YEs it was updated than ... Hmmm strange ... Wait a sec.
It must work: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17626742/Programy/PNotificationMODKrzysiec.zip
Checked graphic and there`re no more graphic like on screen (they were there at start but not now).
If in some way U won`t get it to work... Install my PureBlack skin and use it ... This will DEFINITELLY change those graphic. But How i said there no way to still have those hraphic there. Will check again for sure.
THIS ONE MUST WORK!
There`s no ..... way to not work
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17626742/Programy/PNotificationMODKrzysiec.zip
LOL, I promise I took the link from your post above, put the file in my DHD, flash it in CWM, reboot and took this picture below
EDIT : I cleared my cache, DL again, and same file seems to have different amount of bytes. I try again.
Just fresh flash (16:07) on mine and it looks like this (default skin):
I don`t know what`s wrong than :/ Maybe U flash all the time the wrong file which have the same name?
See my EDIT above : same name of file => so kept in FF cache.
Cleared cache, last file a bit bigger. Flashing now.

Extract two framework-res.apk from my and UOT... Put them in different folders. Than pull via WinRAR /res/drawable-hdpi-v4 from both (in their folders) Than mix graphic U want from Yours into mine and but them back into framework-res.apk of mine ... U don`t have to sign anything. After mixing put "new" frameowrk-res.apk into my zip and viola!
Of course i`m talking about statusbar icons only because if U change whole folder U won`t get effect like on screen U must see te structure of drawable-hdpi
If U like my battery animation do not change xmls i mentioned earlier If U don`t like it change them from Your UOT framework

hi all... ICS Status bar theme For [GT-P6800]&[GT-P6810]
To begin:
download the ICS Status bar file and copy it to the System > app
Now simply reboot the device.
3G P6800 http://www.mediafire.com/?l12vz3wz92cg1to
Doesn't work.
Do I have to rename the file? like replace the original SystemUI.apk?
Are you sure
first make a backup copy of the original SystemUI.apk
Then rename the file
be careful guys and remember that you will loose back, home, menu buttons if this doesn't work.
BTW it didn't work with me
for those cant make it work, remember rename/remove the SystemUI.odex as well, otherwise wont work
You don't have to remove the .odex file, where is that code going to go then? When you de-odex it puts a classes.dex file in the apk so there is no need for the .odex file.
Do not remove the .odex file.
Rename it to SystemUI.apk as well. The lazy way is to go into your system/app and copy the stock systemui.apk to your SD card, then paste this file over it, and set permissions.
The smart way would be to copy it in a shell. But that might be to advanced for some people.
And besides all he did was edit the images. At least that's what it looks like. I haven't download it to check for a classes.dex file.

I did a sum up of the topic :
1 - Go to system/app and rename SystemUI.apk and .odex both to .bkp
2 - At this time systemui keeps force close, just accept (again and again), copy now new SystemUI.apk to same place and set permissions as original SystemUI.apk
3 - Reboot and you're done!
Hope this helps

WARNING! All of that blue will burn your new AMOLED screen (blue is the first color to lose brightness). Use this if you want status icons permanently etched in to your screen.
I am not sure why people (even Samsung themselves) don't seem to realise that blue is the worst color for these static screens and constantly love to over use it.
Maybe we can get a status bar with the more OLED safe red, yellow, green or combination of those colors?

Blue is the least efficient so I would guess red or green.
It isn't about battery saving it is about screen saving. I doubt that little bit of graphics for the status bar uses much power no matter what. It will burn your screen though. I think blue has a half-life of 17,000-30,000 hours (red/green over 100,000) so blue will be half of it's original brightness then. Of course you will start to see the burn much before because half brightness is pretty severe. You will start to see permanent image retention (mostly noticeable by a yellowish "stain" in the area of the static image) probably at a couple thousand hours (maybe sooner) depending on how bright you have the screen, and how sensitive you are to noticing these things.
I wish software developers, including Samsung themselves, would keep this in mind when creating mandatory static images on their devices such as status bars etc. OLED is great but it is not LCD when it comes to longevity, and care should be taken accordingly.

Great but...
WARNING! All of that blue will burn your new AMOLED screen (blue is the first color to lose brightness). Use this if you want status icons permanently etched in to your screen.
I am not sure why people (even Samsung themselves) don't seem to realise that blue is the worst color for these static screens and constantly love to over use it.
Maybe we can get a status bar with the more OLED safe red, yellow, green or combination of those colors?

Factual Evidence to back this claim up?
Even so, @ 17,000 hours @ 24 houts a day is 708 Days. 90% of people do not keep devices more than a year. Personally I keep them MAYBE 6-8 months before I upgrade. So why sweat about the screen? I am going to put what ever color I want and that I like. End of story.

people with amoled+ screens have already reported burn in issues after only a couple weeks.
primary affected area is status bar. although only really noticeable under certain conditions
for 7.7 users these are valid concerns not so much for 7.0+ devices.

Thanks. Why nobody writes the responses and wishes that them to consider?
A few improvements
Hi Gloxksss,
I appreciate your work very much. I consider your ICS theme to be one of the best for LG Optimus Black. However I would have a few suggestions for improvements:
- Some nicer icons in a notification bar - BT icon looks fuzzy, alarm icon should be gray instead of blue because it is now distinctive too much. I would use the same icon set like in ICS port theme (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1463089).
- Transparent menu (triggered by Menu button) looks ugly in my opinion. I suggest to make it simply black like in a standard Android Gingerbread without modified icons.
- Conversation bubbles in Messages app are ugly too. Please either leave the original look or try to use a similar layout like this: http://fs02.androidpit.info/ass/x67/4620167-1325865472193.jpg
Thanks for your great work!

Due to your question concerning changes I would like put you attention for 3 issues.
Conversation bubbles in mms.apk supposed to be in two different colors I mean sender white and recipient let say gray or blue. You know what I mean?
That transparent menu should be solid black one for sure.
And the last one. What do you think to modified contacts.apk to get full screen caller 480/480 or ever better 480/800 with nice ICS theme?

Thanks for a response and for council, but it a subject also differs from that on which you specified, you can replace icons, me and that who made this subject arranges everything... certainly that that will change over time
