That will be theme related, or someone has to make it for you (by changing the notification icon colors). I'm not into yellow so I won't do it, but perhaps someone else is willing to. Also if I do a search for "notification icons" there are plenty you can use.

I think those are located in the SystemUI.apk res\drawable-hdpi folder ...maybe some others. I might give it a crack (along with another theme I'm building), but currently my mouse has gone fuxxors. I've ordered replacement but steelseries have bad driver/software support for Windows 7 64bit, so I'm returning for another (not gonna receive for another 1-2weeks).

***google search found this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.firezenk.ssb&feature=search_result&hl=en

Might want to give it a try too

Question @rixsta,

Is the Black background Mod different from the "Black Holo Background" Mod in the "Unsupported Mods section of the Update Me app???
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] JLowe:
Can someone give me a hint how I can edit just the notification colour of the left icons (to white or yellow)? And changing the battery (percentage) text to white.

Tried already to decompress the systemui.apk of Slim Rom 4.2 with APK Multi-Tool 4.05 but the xml-files looks weird in notepad++

to change the colour like mentioned in this thread here

hi

has any one else had trouble installing the lock screen mod on slim 4.2? I get boot loop. I have wiped cache and delvik and it freezes on boot I think.... the icon on the bottom right stops moving lol.

Any one any ideas?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Rixsta:
I have no idea sorry. I just changed the PNG in framework to plain black.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cyberboob:
Did you load the framework first?... then decompile?

Load framework:

apktool if framework-res.apk

then decompile whatever apk you want to... if it's framework-res.apk it would be like this:

apktool d framework-res.apk framework1 (take note framework1 is just name of folder you creating to dump files in)

Then after you change the files you need... you need to recompile it before you can use the images:

apktool b framework1 framework-res-new.apk (note you are going to recompile everything in the framework1 folder to the new apk name).

Then you can take out the files you want to put into original apk or as I do... using Universal Flasher Tool or whatever.

For the clock time colors, etc... you need to decompile your systemui.apk.

After that go to res/values/ and edit styles.xml,search for TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock and change the value of android:textColor to 808080 (or whatever color you want) then save and compile your systemui.apk and there you go.

**ooops I was responding to another thread at same time and mixed up the clock and battery percentage colors. I never bothered with battery stuff, but I suppose it's similar. Just need to check xml files to see which hold battery bar values and change textcolor for them.

---------- Post added at 03:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ----------

Sorry, which lockscreen mod you referring to? Mine or the one _Garry_ put up?

*************

Good job on the black mms. Although mine already has blue icon (not green) for longest time.. I think it's normally like that... just when texting it is standard white theme (so this should make it look better).

Have you got Java (jdk) and android sdk setup & updated? You need those if you haven't.

In the pic you posted the xml hasn't been decompiled/properly.

@rixsta great to see you here good mods as always :cool:

I have a question if you don't mind, I remember you doing dpi mods a while back...

@182 dpi the notifications have a gap below each one, is there any way this can be removed so they're like they are at 240? I've had a look but not sure what to change if anything can be.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] JLowe:
I tried it now with wanams version and changed some colors in the systemui res/valuesas described in this thread here

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24089750&postcount=1

but without luck. If I exchange the systemui.apk you won't see the notification bar anymore.

My goal is to just change the nofication icon color from blue/gray to a brighter color that you can read it better if I got new mails/text,...

Perhaps someone more experienced can help me. Thank you for assistance!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] y0.o!:
The one that garry put up, the black and white one. I didn't realise you had done one, i'll try and find your's too :).

Hi guys

I'm trying to edit the MMS.apk file so i can stop the auto-convert at 3 texts using this guide here but i can't get it to work as it wants the dependency file and keeps telling me framework.apk and twframework.apk aren't the right depende files. does any one know which file it is?

I'm editing rixsta's black mms.apk file and not the one that comes with slim ics, i like the black hehe.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cyberboob:
In you attached thumbnail... some of them are image files that you need to edit yourself (and sometimes the smali too... this is a pain in the ass to do).

For underneath the toggles... you need to edit the btn_off.png and btn_on.png. The btn_off is easy... however the btn_on requires you to edit a smali code (after you decompiled everything from framework and systemui apks). The solution for the btn_on is on page 20: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1663359&page=20 (as you can see I had some trouble before until someone else helped out).

The other image you want to edit are scrubber_control_focused_holo.png, scrubber_control_normal_holo.png, scrubber_control_pressed_holo.png and probably scrubber_primary_holo.9.png (the circle/dot and bar). Only works when decompiled and recompiled back properly. They are located in framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi.

As you can see... the process is kind of long and not so easy. Big pain in the ass... but you seem to be having some problems with decompiling and recompiling properly. I had a few issues before... until I found a good working combo of apktool. But I'm on Windows 7 64bit. So let us know your OS and maybe one of us can help you up set things up properly.

If you're also on Windows 7 64bit then I can put together a full package to download for you to use. If not, state your OS and someone else can hopefully provide you a working solution.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] JLowe:
Hi Cyberboob,

thank you for your guidance!

yes, I am using windows 7 64 bit too.

There was a nice tool from Rob43 for CM9 changing the colors of the notification bar called Reloaded, but this isn't anymore compatible for latest releases.

My first challenge will be just changing the color of the notification icons.

This should be possible without editing the png.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cyberboob:
Ok well this is the only apktool I was able to get working for my setup... so hopefully it works for you.

Download this: http://www.mediafire.com/?5bnaj681jw2auls

and install both jdk and jre java files first (I already checked for viruses but go ahead and scan everything to be sure I'm giving you clean files),

then install the "apktool-miui-ics-think this only works for 4.0.4". Easiest way is just make an apktool folder on your c drive (because easy to get to through cmd prompt),

then you can try the "Sign+_v1.2.2" for when you need to sign things, but I haven't tested that one yet (but recommended by others I know). I usually just type my own code in cmd.

Then you should be good to go for decompiling and recompiling stuff, etc on windows 7 64. Good luck!

PS

Most notification icons are png files too... so I think you'll have to edit the image files (not code), though for clock, etc it is code.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] JLowe:
Dear Cyberboob,

thank you for the files. I recompiled and signed the systemui.apk and then copied with root explorer to system/app

But again, the notification bar disappears :(

Won't give up!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] m1keyb:
Don't sign it, system apps shouldn't normally be signed. If it still doesn't work after not signing, try dropping the modified files from the build folder into the same location/s in a copy of the original systemui.apk with 7zip.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] SilencerOfLambs:

Inverted Style

Hey,

i hope, somebody can help me.

I use a galaxy I9100 with I9100XXLPQ and flashed slimics v4.2. Now i want to get the inverted style of the mms.apk and contacts.apk so i installed the Inverted_Slim_4.2.zip

all ok so far, but now there's no keyboard anymore.

Can somebody help me or tell me how to geht the inverted style in slimicsv4.2

@o_tiger

Hi, can you make a mod for the notifications window without the grey texture for the toggles and notifications? I think all pure black would look awesome.

Thank you!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cyberboob:
Well people... I can see on the main Slim rom thread that some people looking for some updated mods or something.

Personally I think some people on other roms do too many mods, etc. It's something quite tedious to do and if you're always making something custom for each individual - it's even more tedious when sometimes you have to do them over and over again for each build release. Luckily, with Slim, most things don't need to be updated - they will work.

But if people want other things done, you can request them here and see if someone willing to do them for you. I have a lot of other design work (as it's one of my business) but when I see something that can be cool, I don't mind pitching in here.

I believe in high-standards and quality. A lot of things (I mean A LOT) of mods I see on other roms would never even make it to a sketch on paper -- but that's just my personal opinion.

So if people want something - request it as I see some have asked already (and if you like a certain modder in particular, you can specify as alexovy did above).

**so that's why you don't see so many mods just pushed out here (for those wondering). "Slim" rom <--- so going for the "slim sleek and stylish" experience :P

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cyberboob:
The status bar toggles is not the same as the Alternate toggles style? (just scrolling toggles).

CM9 uses Trebuchet launcher - so maybe they have certain things that change how it looks/works but do you have a particular cm9 theme you're referring to? (but my understanding is cm9 just tries to look like stock, with more green to them)

Using your working nandroid, go into CWM, wipe dalvik and cache, flash and then fix permissions just in case there's something wrong on your set up then reboot and see. It's only you that has mentioned any issues so far.

Can someone can tell me where I can change the color of the battery % if set to text only?

should be a xml in Systemui.apk /res/?

btw: compiling/decompiling and flashing modified files, works now flawless for me ;)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cyberboob:
I think it's in status_bar.xml (either systemui or framework-res apk).

Sorry, it's been a while since I looked into that - little busy on other projects.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] m1keyb:
I've tried changing what seemed like the obvious things

In Styles

<style name="TextAppearance.StatusBar.BatteryTextOnly" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Icon">
<item name="android:textSize">16.0dip</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">normal</item>
<item name="android:textColor">@android:color/holo_blue_light</item>
</style>

Changed that to another color, no joy

In battery_cluster_view.xml

<TextView android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.BatteryTextOnly" android:id="@id/battery_text_only" android:visibility="gone" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/battery_test" android:singleLine="true" />

changed visibilty to visible, no joy

I think the only way to change it is line 291 in BatteryBar.smali (haven't tested)

const v5, [B][COLOR="RoyalBlue"]-0xcc4a1b[/COLOR][/B]

There's a small app here if you need it for calculating the smali color code and there are lots of guides on here if you'd like to try doing it the good old fashioned way...

When done you'll need to add classes.dex from the build folder into your flashable zip!

Hey guys, is there already a Mod that turns the dimmed greyed notification icons ob the left side of the Bar to shiny white ones? grey is Hardly visible :(
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cyberboob:
Well that's the default colors of ICS (so everyone deals with them), but there are some mods out there that work on Slim.

I haven't bothered to do one for them... but too busy now with other projects. Whenever am done with all else, if nobody else has made one you can use yet, then I'll do them.

If you're any good with photoshop or gimp (or any other image editing software), you can just change the images yourself (I think they are located in framework-res. Good luck.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cyberboob:
OK I just got on Slim Bean and noticed a few changes for Toggles (now called Power widget "Widget buttons")... so I'll try to do them this coming weekend (as only free time I'll have). Naming is different now too: "stat_wifi_on.png" - "stat_wifi_off.png" etc (instead of "toggle_wifi.png" - "toggle_wifi_off.png") --- for those interested to know and want to do on their own.

**

Probably gonna have to do some other day... too much other stuff to finish off first (and no sleep last night).

I've also noticed the toggles are smaller now (from 64x64 to 48x48).

Do people want them smaller or bigger? Everyone's different... maybe I do something in between lol

***

Testing stage now. Need to change some things as noticed there is spacing between each toggle in scroll (was hoping to make a box version but doesn't look good); found some missing toggles.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cyberboob:
Thanks AvRS.

One thing that seems to not work right on my end is the vibrate toggle. The file itself I have done correctly (stat_vibrate_on) but it does not show it blue when selecting... just the off state one (stat_vibrate_off)... wondering if anyone else have this same issue?

And if so... wondering if the code for toggles is the one with error calling for the wrong image?!?!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] m1keyb:
Yeah I noticed that. I only noticed after I'd changed color that both off and on are the same color on the default theme. I think it's got something to do with the way it's implemented in cm, 1 toggle for all the states rather than individual toggles.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cyberboob:
Well it is what it is... I will see if making the off image like the on one works lol. Also noticed some other buttons I didn't do since I just go onto 2.5 SB... so I'll do those tonight when I get home... and I think I'll change the color of the off state too (make it a little easier to see).

OK done new version (should have most corrected and look a bit better now).

*note I left vibrate off stage as is, but that is what will actually make it vibrate state (in the event future builds using stat names correctly).

But well, when there changes coming to the theme engine, i will stop the work for now and create an easy theme where i only add xml changes to find the problem. and this would be the easiest way, but wont explain me what went wrong. :s
