Mod needed

Does anyone know how to change the color of the text of my task/title bar and soft key bar (top and bottom bars) I have UI tweaker but I don't see a setting in there, so I was wondering if there is a different program that will handle this? I'd like to change the color of the word start, the battery icon, etc as well as the soft key texts. I would love to change the color to match lilrico's(from ppcgeeks) full cactus green theme.
you can change the font color in the softkey bar with ui tweaker, I have not had any luck getting the taskbar font color changed with any software, probably a reg edit or hex code somewhere (didn't try too hard though). The icons are a totally different ballgame, all of the images are in .dll files that have to be changed manually using a resource editor
do you know how to do it?

[Q] How to change wifi/data signal and battery icon colors?

Is there a way to change the colors of the wifi/data, phone signal and battery icons in the status bar? I'm currently using weapon 2.4, so I'm rooted and was wondering if it might be a simple file edit to do so. If there is an app that lets you do that, I haven't found it yet but I would love to know how they work so I can potentially assign each icon a different custom color. Thanks in advance for any help.
--UPDATE--
ok so from what i've read so far it looks like i'm going to be editing some lines in the classes.dex which i extracted from the services.jar file in the framework folder. when I open up the classes.dex with baksmali i cannot find the \com\android\server\status\StatusBarIcon.smali file .. not just in that folder but anywhere within the expanded classes.dex archive. Is StatusBarIcon.smali where I'll be able to change the color of the icons in the notification bar or am I completely off track here?
You want to change the color of the icons? They are png files in the SystemUI.apk, so either pull them out and edit them in some photo software, find icons you like and add them, use a theme, or use UOT Kitchen.
do you have the "Theme Chooser" app on your phone?
If so, you might want to check out some themes and install one of those
or use Metamorph or a zip application to make your own
and remember, always backup your rom
Just use NinjaMorph, and edit SystemUI.apk... If you're looking to make them green, check my thread in the Themes section.

[Theming] Moding S4 KK SecContacts_OSup for dark background

I am modding SecContacts_OSup from stock SGS4 4.4.2 and cannot figure out where the xml setting is to change the color of the text that appears above the dialpad input display when a valid area code is entered. The text block, circled in red, displays the matched text to the entered number from arrays.xml in the array named "local_name_usa". If anyone can point me to the correct xml file and line that determines the color of this text block, it would greatly appreciated. The white background image is the stock, the dark theme is my mod in it's current state.
Thanks
Found the location in colors.xml in the res/values folder:
<color name="dialpad_cityid_text">#ff2fa6c9</color>
<!-- stock value is <color name="dialpad_cityid_text">#ff484848</color> -->

Thanks. I modded SecPhone, SecContacts_OSup, SystemUI, and framework-res to add colors back to the system notification bar and increased the icon sizes as well. I also made the notification bar black instead of transparent. I prefer color-coded icons since my vision isn't sharp enough to distinguish the shapes in the default monochome KK notification icons. I also modded the default dialer keypad buttons to use the easy mode buttons instead, which are larger font.

You have to mod 3 xmls. goto res/layout-sw360dp-xxhdpi. Then do
dialpad_fragment
dialpad_fragment_spr_easy
dialpad_fragment_spr
(Im assuming you are on Sprint. If not for the last 2 find your carrier.) You can also change the background in those too.
