Thanks. That sucks though, because I don't think I'll be able to modify that with XThemeEngine.

I got a couple of questions for y'all, if you'd be so kind as to help me out. First, would y'all happen to know where I could find the 2 xmls, or images, that control the things in the screenshots? I've been looking for a couple days and no luck. Secondly, how would I go about changing an image from a .9 to a regular png? The image in particular is the purple on/off indicator in the 3rd screenshot. I know which image controls it, I just don't recall right off the top of my head. I'd appreciate any and all help, thanks. I'll be hanging around this thread, maybe I'll be able to help sometime.

Edit: I'm on the sprint note 3 by the way.

I believe you could just replace the ninepatch PNG with a regular PNG, but if the size isn't correct it will stretch it to fit. Not being a .9.png it will stretch the whole image rather than portions of it.

Can anyone point me in the right direction..I know they are framework-res...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] steelers_exe:
Have you looked in drawable-hdpi? There's a bunch of dividers in there. I want to say for that particular one it's one of the tw_divider_ ninepatch files in there, but not 100 percent sure on it

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] steelers_exe:
I'm fairly certain it's one of those tw_divider_..... .9s towards the bottom. Probably something like tw_divider_horizontal or tw_divider_popup_horizontal

Does anyone know where the images are that are used in the slider in the attached screenshot?

I believe it is created by the com.sec.android.touchwiz.widget.TwSeekBarSplit item.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nyfl2004:
Not quite sure, but could be in SecSettings or framework-res. All Progressbar and scrubber png's. Maybe even double check in SecLauncher2?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] claytonjn:
I looked through framework-res, twframework-res, and SecSettings. Nothing I tried worked...I'll try SecLauncher2.

EDIT: Nope, didn't see anything there either...(SecLauncher3 for me)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nyfl2004:
Did you try all the drawable folders in Secsettings?

Edit: I'm on Sprint MK3 (JB 4.3) and I see "tw_progressbars" in framework-res. I think those should be it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] claytonjn:
Yeah, I just did a search for *.png so I went through every single apk.

I got the regular slider bar themed (the one used in the volume sliders, notification panel brightness slider, etc.) I was trying to find the images by looking for the vertical divider in the very middle of the slider. I found tw_seekbarsplit_verticalbar in twframework-res which looks exactly like it but when I tried including it in my theme it didn't change anything. I tried all resolutions and everything.

I did a search for tw_progressbar and tried tw_progressbar_bg_v but that wasn't it either...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nyfl2004:
I feel your pain. There are a couple of texts that I have been searching for quite some time also. I've been working on a GS4 White Theme for the Sprint GS3. Are you on ATT?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] claytonjn:
No I have a Developer Edition S4 (Verizon) and the theme I'm making is for that and my Galaxy Note 10.1 (2013)

It might seem silly that I'm making such a big deal out of something buried to deeply in the settings. I'm using the Xposed module Wanam Xposed to enable the detailed automatic bar in the notification panel rather than the regular brightness bar. So basically, the brightness bar in my notification panel is the same as the one in Settings. So I see it all the time.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nyfl2004:
I'm the same as you. No matter how deep it's buried, I like a complete theme. I hope you find it!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] EMSpilot:
It is all in framework-res

It is all in framework-res. I do not have exact png's. But you will find them. I am on a Verizon S4. They are in my framework-res\res\drawable-sw360dp-xxhdpi. Should be the same on Sprint.

What Text

What text are you looking for? Please post screenshot!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nyfl2004:
Hi [MENTION=4668174]EMSpilot[/MENTION]. Thanks for your help. Please see the screenshots. I found the one which controls the volumes (2nd from right) - it's in framework-res/values/colors/ and I believe it's called background_holo_dark. The only problem is that it controls other apps such as SMS Backup, Triangle Away, etc. Maybe there's a way to work around that? The other 4 are driving me crazy. I hope you can shed some light....

Edit:Solved

Found the 4th one in framework-res and the last one was in SecLauncher2

Found the 1st one in SecMms
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] claytonjn:
I know for sure I tried redirecting images in that folder. I'm pretty sure it caused FCs.

I seem to be getting a lot of FCs with certain things using XThemeEngine. Also, things like The XMLs that control the battery icon don't seem to redirect at all.

What are you guys using for theming? Are you just decompiling/recompiling the APKs themselves, using VRThemer, ZipThemer, Metamorph, or something else entirely? Right now I'm strictly using XThemeEngine and XBatteryThemer (because like I said for some reason redirecting The battery XMLs has no effect with XThemeEngine.) I'm thinking about using VRThemer for system apps because I don't think I'd have all these problems, and XThemeEngine for user apps so it doesn't mess with the signatures and prevent updates from the Play Store.

EDIT: VRThemer doesn't affect signatures, so I might just use that. Still curious how everyone else is tackling the theming.

EDIT 2: Is the only way to modify .smali files decompiling / recompiling?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] EMSpilot:
de-compile compile

I de-compile and compile everything I do. you will want to shut off any exposed framework while themeing. It will just throw you way off base.

---------- Post added at 06:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:46 PM ----------

Almost all apk's use framework-res in one way or another. There is no way around this unless you want to take the time to go into each apk and redirect all the text colors. Almost everything I see in your screenshots is in framework-res. You will have to search all folders for "textcolor" and change them all to what you want. You will also have to search each apk in the same manner.

In my opinion you theme all text colors or none. It is a lot of work bro.

Good Luck
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nyfl2004:
Thanks again man. I was afraid that's what you were going to say..Lol

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] steelers_exe:
It's probably a longshot, but have you tried this one?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] claytonjn:
Okay, so I'm trying to go that route, but even just decompiling and recompiling without making any changes isn't working. I tried APK Multi-Tool Experimental and WIP-2.0 branches which are working for other apps and I also tried in linux with apktool 1.5.2 and 2.0.0. Is there something I'm missing??

I actually found it was one in twframework-res. I guess XThemeEngine and HKThemeManager both aren't redirecting all images properly because when I replaced the image in the apk manually it worked.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dazednconfused:
Hey buddy. The text you are looking for is in ClockPackage.apk/res/drawable/style_txt_color2_light.xml you will see this:

<item android:state_enabled="true" android:color="#fff5f5f5" state_pressed="true" />
<item android:state_enabled="true" android:color="#fff5f5f5" state_selected="true" />
<item android:state_enabled="true" android:color="#fff5f5f5" state_focused="true" />
<item android:state_enabled="true" android:color="#fff5f5f5" />
<item android:state_enabled="false" android:color="#ff6b6b6b" />

Change the #fff5f5f5 to the hex code that you want to change that text.

The blue text below that is in drawable/style_txt_color3_light.xml if you want to change that as well. Look for the hex code #ff8d9ca3 for the light blue text.

Also if you look at the little checkbox that say repeat weekly, you can find that white hex in ClockPackage.apk/res/layout-sw359dp-xhdpi/alarm_detail.xml - line number #15 (see below)

<TextView android:textSize="15.0dip" android:textColor="#fff5f5f5"

Hope that helps a little man.

I jumped ship to AOSP but if I recall, those lines are actually gaps where you see the background of the notification panel. I think you can adjust the images and some values in dimens.xml to get rid of them.

Hello all, I am getting into themes and had a question for 4.4 KK if anyone has dove into it yet? Working on an ATT GS4 with vrtheme and trying to change the background for the settings menu, it seems they like to change how they theme the background from version to version. I've located tw_background_holo_dark.xml and it calls out for the hex color black, I found a tutorial where you change it from shape layout to linear and call out the image in drawables but received FC's when attempting to open settings. I think I need to add the resource.arsc to my flashable zip. Could this be my problem? Should i need to modify Styles.xml as well? There is another guide for an older android version where they change some of the lines to translucent and call out the drawable image in place of the color black. Is this needed in conjunction as well? I apologize in advance if this is confusing as it is driving me crazy myself trying to figure it out. Let me know if you need more or better info, thanks in advance. I know this is a GS3 thread but info seems to be scarce and wasn't sure if anyone had devices running KK as this seems to be a knowledgeable thread.
