i found way to edit settings background without editing go to SecSettings/res/values-xxhdpi/styles.xml

find

<style name="SettingsTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault.Light">

add under it

<item name="android:background">#ff000000</item>

header color in main menu still needs framework edit

this method should change all settings tabs

[MENTION=6064069]Breakcore_Rush[/MENTION] this should fix your problem with background :D

[MENTION=3509574]steha[/MENTION] finally better method :highfive:

Thanks [MENTION=5056266]lacoursiere18[/MENTION] he told me to look in other folders but i never did :D
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Breakcore_Rush:
Cheers!=) Thank you buddy!

UPD

I found more easiest way just romove light from Theme.DeviceDefault.Light

just stay Theme.DeviceDefault

on all lines

On frameworks change tw_background_holo_dark to color you need and thats all we have black settings with right color text without damage other apps
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Morningstar:
Changing anything in framework will change it system - wide that calls that resource from framework (ie. Starts with "@android:"). If you've found that changing something in frameworks gives you your desired result in a different app, then search that app for the name of the framework resource, and replace it with something in that app. Depending on what it is, you can usually either specify a color value or change it to an image in the drawable folders (one that's there already or one that you add).

Start by searching through styles, but if it doesn't seem to be there, look in layouts, look in the drawables; basically anywhere there's xml files.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] AL_IRAQI:
you change it from framework ?

this line ?

<style name="Theme.DeviceDefault.Light" parent="@style/Theme.Holo.Light">
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Breakcore_Rush:
no

on secsetting/values-xxhdpi/styles
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] AL_IRAQI:
You changed all lines ? ?

All problems fixed now I have only these problems

when i press menu options text color black

And battery settings completely messed up ?

Same thing in Data Usage

And last thing is switchr background

Did you have same problems ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Breakcore_Rush:
Yes when i add background there there were a lot of bugs

besides, it was still necessary to change the text color

So I decided to just delete the word light on settings styles =)
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] AL_IRAQI:
[MENTION=6064069]Breakcore_Rush[/MENTION]

Do you know from where i can battery settings text color ?

I already tried some lines but nothing changed

Check screenshot

Now i removed light from Styles in values-xxhdpi and all settings changed to Dark Blue ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Breakcore_Rush:
On frameworks change tw_background_holo_dark to color you need.

Color of text is ok

Maybe you change some color of text on frame work, try with stock framework its ok?
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] AL_IRAQI:
change it from this :D

SecSettings/res/layout/battery_history_chart.xml
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Breakcore_Rush:
stuck on this, you know where it is possible to change the text color in settings?

Its in location
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Goldie:
It may help if you show the screen in English so people know exactly what you mean because my location looks nothing like that
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Breakcore_Rush:
Oh sorry about that=)
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] lacoursiere18:
The text in settings is controlled by the parent of the main style. If you have changed and the text is conflicting the background then it is a hex in a layout
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] AL_IRAQI:
I'm stuck with this list

I don't know its name so i can't find it ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] lacoursiere18:
That's a scrollbar.. Usually in twframework res..
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] AL_IRAQI:

Vivek! You're supposed to make them work for it, not just give it to them! Sheesh!
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Raymond Ebertt:
You can do it a couple of ways. First you can get the public ID for that and search in your settings apk, or whatever apk you're dealing with. Look in smali.

Second, you can check the framework styles and see where that color is being used, a theme style, textcolor style, and so on. Cross reference that to the app and see if there is an obvious call for it. Change it there
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] AL_IRAQI:
i did it in different way this time

i changed Styles in Settings apk to Material and removed all Light from parents then i changed text color in some tabs and header color

and this is the result
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Breakcore_Rush:

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] carl1961:
Any one here, can you tell or explanation what this number in picture reference to. This change fixed a keyboard popup and input issue, but I just tryed and tested and it fixed issue. I would like to know why, or how to trac number to it's reference.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Kamy:
That's ID which should be correctly linked to public.xml. Search keyboard popup in framework, public.xml and you would find correct ID which has to be linked in that smali
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Morningstar:
I can't quite make the number out, but it's an ID, and it starts with 0x1, so it's something in your framework-res....

Edit: Not to be rude or anything, but if you didn't know that, how were you able to change it to fix your issues? That would be a ridiculously lucky guess....
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] carl1961:
If your not on a computer the picture is a blur, but download and photo gallery will show it correctly and very readable.

Well lucky is close, the issue was a text input (APN setting) the logcat gave InputMethod errors , I already new from months back that a framework fixed the issue, but that framework caused systemui.apk to fc. So i compared the framework2 with original rom it was ported from and that picture was the first diffrent code. So as you or someone here gave advice of just change one then then test.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Morningstar:
Lol right on man. Glad you got it fixed.

[emoji106]
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] carl1961:
yep but I still want to learn why, and learn how to trace that code, I see no reference to it at all in framework-res.apk or twframework-re.apk :confused:
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Goldie:
Look at the last 5 digits of that line....open public.xml in framework-res and find those digits. You will see what it refers to. If the smali and framework are from different firmware then the I'd in the smali may refer to the incorrect item in frame res and therefore needs correcting to the corresponding value from public.xml
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Morningstar:
Then you're in the right place lol...That number is an ID...Most IDs start with 0x7f, but when they start with 0x10, you know it's a reference to framework.

It can refer to a wide range of things; anything from text strings, to layouts, to drawable images, etc; basically any other file....If you want to see what it is, decompile framework-res, go to res/values/public.xml, and search for it. Note that in the public file, there will be an extra 0 added after 0x, before 10...and so on...On the line that contains the ID, it will have 2 more fields, type and name. Type tells you what type of reference it is, and name is, well, the name of the reference lol.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] carl1961:
Thanks [MENTION=293887]Morningstar[/MENTION]

only reference I found was within the framework2 file it's self and the moded framework2 was for a Chinese rom, so maybe the 0 they put turned input off and they must used a Chinese alternative keyboard, anyway of of those things where you'll never know why they changed the original code to that.

Like you said before, I was redicuouly lucky , because I know nothing about java code I'm just a copy cat LOL
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Morningstar:
Hey, that's one of the best ways to learn. I learned C++ years and years ago, but had zero experience with Java until I started poking through Android. I certainly wouldn't say I'm good with it, by any means, but I've gotten to where I'm at least somewhat competent at some basic stuff.

If you go that route, though, just always be sure you have a good backup and a general idea of how to fix things, because you will break things.

.wbp is equivalent to a .png file or .9.png?
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Morningstar:
Well, it's its' own format, but it would be closest to a regular PNG. It's used for icons, not textures or backgrounds. And to the people earlier, .webp and .wbp should be more or less interchangeable. Sort of like .jpeg and .jpg....

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] FdeKlerk:
I have gotten a few sarcastic comments about question in the past on this thread...

Yes I did. I looked everywhere, I am themming settings and to change the background of about phone/status or application manager i found out that by editing colors/tw_background_material_light does the trick.

BUT then it changes more then what i need it to.:crying:

So i am looking and asking and trying ways of doing this without messing up the framework cuase framework is linked to more then just settings.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Morningstar:
So since you found the item in framework that changes what you want to change in settings....go back into settings and search for the name of the item you found in framework, then all you have to do is redirect it to something other than the framework item....You're almost there!

And who was it that was being sarcastic before? How dare they? I'll take care of them....

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] FdeKlerk:
I have searched far and wide, and for someone that has no clue on how android string, bools and so on works. I have no idea where that text links up.

So any further hints to what .xml is may be would be very much appreciated!:good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Morningstar:
What exactly was it that you changed in framework to get the desired result? Was it one of the text colors in colors.xml?

I'm guessing so, and if that's the case it'll be inherited from styles....
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] FdeKlerk:
tw_primary_text_material_dark.xml

Changing the color of that xml does change the color of the text color on font selection popup.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Morningstar:
OK, I figured as much...You're going to have to add this:

<item name="android:textColor">your color's hex value</item>

to one of the styles in styles.xml in your settings...I have no clue which one, though, off the top of my head, and I'm not currently on TW to check....

Edit: It might be entry_layout or info_layout. Those are just guesses though.

Alternatively, you can find the layout in settings, which I believe, going from memory, is going to be layout/display.xml, and just add android:textColor="#yourcolor" to the appropriate TextView there, but again, I'm not sure of the specifics..
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] FdeKlerk:
Sweet!:D.

Now i have searched through /valus/styles.xml and/values-xxhdpi/styles.xml and figures that I HAVE NO IDEA what means what in there:silly:

So thank you for that piece of advice, now to find out where it links to:good:

EDIT: I believe I found where it links to - dialog_select_font_style.xml

So I added the code you gave me but nothing happened...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<ListView android:scrollbarStyle="outsideOverlay" android:id="@id/mode_list" android:paddingLeft="25.0dip" android:paddingRight="25.0dip" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:choiceMode="singleChoice" />
[COLOR="Red"]<item name="android:textColor">#ff263238</item>[/COLOR]
</LinearLayout>
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Morningstar:
You're on the right track, but that's not it. The line will almost certainly start with <TextView>. Don't just go trying random ones, though, as there are literally thousands of them.

And if you think you do find it, just add android:text color="#ff364248" to it, before the closing tag ( /> ) at the end. The only place you would use that other format is in styles.xml.

You're getting there, though.. Try searching through all the xmls in the layout folder for the word 'font'. That'll probably help you narrow it down to just one or two...Or wait a few hours until someone who's on TW can take a look at it lol.

Edit: now that I look at the code you posted again, that may be real close....is there any more to that xml, or is that all?
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Goldie:
From a quick look on phone looks like you added the text color in the wrong place....you want to change the list view so it needs to be inside the list view code
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Morningstar:
Is there any more to that xml file? It's been a while since I've worked with ListViews, but I thought they had to contain android:entries....
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] FdeKlerk:
That's all there is. but will give it a try and see.:good:
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Morningstar:
Try it the way Goldie showed... I don't remember ListViews that well, so that could actually be it....
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Goldie:

Copy the new apk and place it in the folder named unsigned. back out and find the "sign"bat and click it .. it will sign the apk for you.

[MENTION=5056266]lacoursiere18[/MENTION] (doing a great job helpin' out Bubba :good: )posted a video explaining .9pngs that got moved to the 1st page. I haven't viewed it yet but just to throw out a comment in case it wasn't hit on...the left and top 1px borders should should stop short of any curved or design/shaded portion of the png. Stretching curves or designs don't look good as finished .9pngs. Also, the left and top borders don't necessarily need to be one unbroken line. I've attached some pics of a KK Keyboard showing where I had to "stretch" my png in two places in order to get the desired effect (spacing) that I wanted. It just wasn't looking right to me doing it the regular way. A lot of "theming" is trial and error.
