how to change panel/menu text color

I would like to change the text color of the popup panel or menu to white.

I have a nexus one, using CM6, and decompiled my framework-res.apk. I found in the Value folder that the styles.xml has the following that is relevant to changing the panel text color. The code:

<item name="panelBackground">@drawable/menu_background</item>

<item name="panelFullBackground">@drawable/menu_background_fill_parent_width</item>

<item name="panelColorForeground">?textColorPrimaryInverse</item>

<item name="panelColorBackground">#ffffffff</item>

<item name="panelTextAppearance">?textAppearanceInverse</item>

I did several things but the text is still black.

1)I removed "Inverse",

2)changed the "panelColorBackground" to #ff000000 and, left "panelColorForeground" "panelTextAppearance" alone.

3)removed "Inverse"

Nothing helps. Do you have any idea?

After I changed the styles.xml, I recompiled, copied original AndroidManifest.xml and META-INF folder to the modded framework-res.apk, then pushed. Is any of the following incorrect?

please help
[Android Themes] JAguirre1231:
In the styles.xml change:

<style name="TextAppearance.Widget.IconMenu.Item" parent="@style/TextAppearance.Small">

<item name="textColor">?textColorPrimaryInverse</item>

to

<style name="TextAppearance.Widget.IconMenu.Item" parent="@style/TextAppearance.Small">

<item name="textColor">@color/bright_foreground_dark</item>

Let's say I want to mod an app's widget so that its background is transparent. Are the steps as follows-

Extract the APK using apkinstaller

Find the relevant PNGs and edit them

Save them under the same name

Re-Zip the APK using apkinstaller

Or are there any other important steps I am missing?

I'm in the process of trying to port over a theme from another phone to mines. I got most of it down, but I'm missing the color/layout of the pop up that comes up when pressing the volume up/down on my phone (droid incredible).

anyone know where these are changed from? is it located somewhere else, or was it just a few images I missed in the framework-res.apk?
[Android Themes] JAguirre1231:
framework-res.apk/res/drawable/progress_horizontal.xml
[Android Themes] xDarKnighTx:
Thanks for the quick response, but that's only for the color of the bar. What about the layout of the entire pop up?
[Android Themes] JAguirre1231:
It's either panel_background.9.png or popup_full_dark.9.png

Hey there,

The image doesn't look like its in the apk itself. Does anyone have any idea where this image may be located? Or which xml file references this image, so I can modify it?

need some help here on a metamorph. I've gotten real good with the editing so far but I can't seem to find the pngs for list view background, in the second screenshot. And also in the first screenshot, the dialer tabs, I found them in the framework folder but when I change them and use metamorph the dialer fc's every time. The areas in question are in the light blue brackets.

[Android Themes] junkdruggler:
I haven't been able to change the tabs in the dialer yet... the image inside is no problem... But the actual tab is a different story.. Must be controlled by am xml bc I've changed the tabs and the background with no fix... If you do change the tabs please let me know how you did it..

The other set of brackets are around the list_selector_background_normal.9.png in the framework-res
[Android Themes] JAguirre1231:
I've changed it before, but I don't remember what I changed.

[Android Themes] a.n:
Haha Thanks guys, but I'm talking about the .9 PNG that's used for the menu itself.

I've been playing around with themes and framework-res for quite a while in the nexus one,and need to know a couple of things, first of all, how do we edit xml files, cause I want to change the loading colour, I know its in the progress_horizontal.xml, but how do I edit it and what do I edit in it. IN nexus one we have 4 bas for the signal, I want to know whether I can make it eight bars, if I had 8 png.'s and how would I do it. How would I decompile the framework, and make the changes, to add a moving sync icon or more wifi bars. etc...is it possible. I usually change as many icons as possible in the drawable-hdpi folder, however I also wanted to know is there any way of adding more transparency or addind transparency, like if you press 'menu'in the homescreen you get a popup, caould we theme that and could we add transparency to that. If we could how would we, sorry for all the questions, just trying to make my nexus one beautiful

Compatibility question.

I am wondering why say a theme built for lets say CM6 Nightly a month ago isn't compatible with CM6 Nightly last night? Or aosp for that matter. Reason I ask is that when I do my personal theme or my rom that I am currently porting I just open the file in 7zip and take my image and drag n drop it in, sign if necessary then push it with adb and reboot.

Thanks

[Android Themes] PMDColeslaw:
Lower DPI = higher resolution/smaller icons & widgets for more screen space. How low you can go depends on your device screen size and your eye sight. I have a Hero and use 118.

Also, to edit the DPI without the app just edit the build.prop file in */system/... There will be a line that says "...density = 160" Just change it to whatever you like.

Hello! :)

I really didn't know where to post this, but since the issue is caused by Lancher Pro / ADW Launcher, I'd thought of posting it here.. Sorry if any rules were broken!

Well, I'm curious to why I can't add the WiFi / Bluetooth / Mobile / GPS - Widgets from "Widgets -> Settings". In Launcher Pro and ADW Launcher there's no such thing in the Widget-options, and I would really like to have them back..

Of course, if there are substitutes, they will work just as fine! But the problem with the replacements that I've found (from Beautiful Widgets among others), is that it says that Mobile, for instance, just renames the APN (I've had some problems with that), and with GPS it says "Android does not allow applications to turn on/off the settings directly", and just makes the GSP-widget a link.. Bluetooth seems to work fine, though, along with WiFi! I've also seen a bar (that you can add from the original widgets), but that bar does not include the Mobile-button, but have added a "sun" for "brightness" and a button for flight mode, instead..

So, is there anyone who can help me with this problem!?

I've added a screenshot to show you which ones I mean..

Thanks a bunch in advance!! :)
[Android Themes] JAguirre1231:
It's because they're HTC widgets which HTC allows only on their launcher.
[Android Themes] AndroidBone:
Ah, thanks for clearing that up! Been trying too many times and ways to find and add these now.. :(

And another thing, if you don't mind; could you please point me in the right direction to how to skin/change icons/layout/etc for the docking icons for Launcher Pro!? I'd really like to change those thingys, but don't quite know what I'm looking for..!?

Thanks again! :)

i found one that works with alot of the nightlies the inexus theme port. you can find it here on xda>>>>incredible>>>>themes. the reason other themes wont work and correct me if im wrong please. is the framework is different on old nightlies. what you are doing is changing the image in the frameworkres.apk file? that will do the trick. alot of themes change your xml files for fant colors and such. (i love those little themeres and all the hard work they put into their work. thanks)

Thanks for all the help, finally got it to work after getting errors in the autosign.bat. Of course, it seems the font I chose, is not displaying quite properly! most of it looks good but there are some rectangles for characters O.o?! It's strange. So I will choose another, the font was Matura MT Script Capitals by the way.

Edit: Turns out it only displays those boxes on long application names. For example, StreamFurious would show up as Stream..(and here are the boxes!).

-Sophy
[Android Themes] Stericson:
Oh the joys......You need to edit the font packages you want to use and resize them so they fit correctly. Also when in there, del the boxes you see. I would actually suggest not using fonts, I have removed them from my phone because they cause problems on the phone when it comes to rendering them.

For instance, if you have custome fonts the multi touch zoom acts really really choppy.

Ever since I loaded the InfoDroid app I thought that would be a nice thing to have on the lock screen. The Google Android filled up to the amount of battery power left with the percentage underneath. Of course it would probably help to have the time, date, and "Press Menu to unlock" text.

But yes, that is the ugly duckling to the UI nowadays, isn't it?
