[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Android Development] Gunthermic:
Finally tracked this one down, and just have to share this...

This Mod was found by [MENTION=4668174]EMSpilot[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3824019]Gunthermic[/MENTION].. emspilot found the routine, and from there we figured the rest.. Give him a big kudos..

This is a MOD for Dev's to incorperate, this is NOT an End User MOD.

I have broken this down to each part of the inversion for those that want complete control over the Full Screen KeyBoard Layout.

1. Text Color

2. Cusor Color

3. BackGround Color

4. HighLight Color

What:

Framework.jar

framework-res.apk

Decompile Framework.jar file

Add/Change

Subtract/Delete

Go to:

smali\android\inputmethodservice\InputMethodService.smali

Search for:

.method startExtractingText(Z)V

Look for this code:

1. Text Color:

iget-object v8, v2, Landroid/view/inputmethod/EditorInfo;->hintText:Ljava/lang/CharSequence;

invoke-virtual {v1, v8}, Landroid/inputmethodservice/ExtractEditText;->setHint(Ljava/lang/CharSequence;)V

Right under that is:

const/4 v8, 0x0

const/4 v9, 0x0

const/4 v10, 0x0

invoke-static {v8, v9, v10}, Landroid/graphics/Color;->rgb(III)I

move-result v8

invoke-static {v8}, Landroid/content/res/ColorStateList;->valueOf(I)Landroid/content/res/ColorStateList;

The above code controls the text coloring on the Text Box. You have two options:

You can change the v8, v9, v10 which is the RGB value (0x0) is Black in this case and change them to -0x1 for each one to make text color white.

The second option you can do if you want a special color without having to figure out RGB color coding is to add:

const v8, smali colorcode (for example -0xCC9934(DarkHorse Blue)) below move-result v8.. like so...

invoke-static {v8, v9, v10}, Landroid/graphics/Color;->rgb(III)I

move-result v8

[COLOR="Blue"]const v8, -0xCC9934[/COLOR]

invoke-static {v8}, Landroid/content/res/ColorStateList;->valueOf(I)Landroid/content/res/ColorStateList;

Okay the next three items are much easier:

Right under the code for Text Coloring is the rest of the Inversion and other Changes

invoke-virtual {v1, v8}, Landroid/inputmethodservice/ExtractEditText;->setTextColor(Landroid/content/res/ColorStateList;)V

const/high16 v8, -0x100 # Cusor Color

invoke-virtual {v1, v8}, Landroid/inputmethodservice/ExtractEditText;->setCursorColor(I)V

.line 3261
const/4 v8, -0x1 #Background Color

invoke-virtual {v1, v8}, Landroid/inputmethodservice/ExtractEditText;->setBackgroundColor(I)V

.line 3265
const v8, -0x86350e #HighLight Cusor Color

invoke-virtual {v1, v8}, Landroid/inputmethodservice/ExtractEditText;->setHighlightColor(I)V

Code Changes: An Example of my changes

invoke-virtual {v1, v8}, Landroid/inputmethodservice/ExtractEditText;->setTextColor(Landroid/content/res/ColorStateList;)V

[COLOR="Blue"]const v8, -0x100 [/COLOR]#Cusor Color(Yellow)

invoke-virtual {v1, v8}, Landroid/inputmethodservice/ExtractEditText;->setCursorColor(I)V

[COLOR="Blue"]const v8, -0x1000000 [/COLOR]#BackGround(Black)

invoke-virtual {v1, v8}, Landroid/inputmethodservice/ExtractEditText;->setBackgroundColor(I)V

[COLOR="Blue"]const v8, -0xCC9934[/COLOR] #HighLight Cusor Color.(DarkHorse Blue)

invoke-virtual {v1, v8}, Landroid/inputmethodservice/ExtractEditText;->setHighlightColor(I)V

Okay Save that. One more Item that needs to be done complete the Inversion!!!

framework/res/layout/input_method_extract_view.xml

Line 5 needs to be changed to complete the inversion(makes the black appear around the Send button)

<FrameLayout android:id="@id/inputExtractAccessories" [COLOR="Blue"]android:background="#ff000000"[/COLOR] android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:paddingStart="8.0dip" android:paddingEnd="8.0dip">
<android.inputmethodservice.ExtractButton android:layout_gravity="center" android:id="@id/inputExtractAction" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<android.inputmethodservice.ExtractButton android:layout_gravity="center" android:id="@id/inputExtractEditButton" android:visibility="invisible" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/extract_edit_menu_button" />
</FrameLayout>

Save and Compile framework.jar and framework-res.apk..

Score!!!!
