If your still having a problem with the black text try putting the framework-res.apk in manually with root explorer!
I personally place the framework in the "overcom rom.zip" from my desktop
So maybe the cwm update is not working properly!
I dont have the text problem???
i really liked this theme on 1.4.x but the alpha level is little too low. the background distracts too much when i interact with the notification items. can it be increased a little bit? i mean make more opaque
the brightness bar is cool

I'm back again and tested your update.
First tru CWM and second tru Root explorer.
Everytime i wiped the Dalvik and still the same problem.
So i did a new rom flash currently Overcome 1.6.3.
Did the same thing over again to apply your theme.
As you can see there is still a difference between your screenshot and mine.
- i got text beneath the powerbuttons
- my display brightness shows text
- notification text is shown in black font
And i have found the reason but not the solution
If i change my "Local and text" to English language then your theme is as i should be.
If i change it back to my language (Dutch) your theme gets completely ...F-Word...
Only the notifications stay in black font even if i change the locale
So it has to be something with the locales, is there something you can do?

Try the new update! but not sure if it will work! i placed the strings.xml and arrays.xml in all the values folders (locales) so hopefully it will!
if not let me know! i will look into it when i get the chance!!

Did not work still the same issue.
The powerbutton and display brightness text.
But the notifications text has change into white font
well.. its not a bug but the problem im having is.. for example, when i pull down the notification bar, i can see the transparent layer which is fine but the transparency or alpha value for the transparent layer is too low for my liking. i sometimes cant distinguish between the items on notification and the items in the screen below the notification transpancy layer.

[Theme] willverduzco's PURE Blackbar for CM 6.1.1 *XML Color Import!* - Now with "4G"
[About]
My goal with this was to create a bar that is PURE BLACK, unlike the gradient bar in HTC Sense, while retaining much of Sense UI's style. As such, this MORPH is heavily based on the HTC Desire Notification Bar. To my eyes, the Sense UI gradient is simply too close to black to look intentional, yet not close enough to look good. It sort of reminds me of an LCD with a back-light leakage problem. Additionally, I created a new, more streamlined notification drawer pull-down image.
This theme has THREE versions: A version with white notifications (classic edition), a version with black notifications (zip file ending with _BN), and a "Faux G" version with black notifications (zip file ending with _BN-4G).
This MORPH is intended for CyanogenMod 6 and beyond. However, it should work with almost every other HDPI ROM, assuming that you have a way to change the status bar and notification text color to white.
[Screenshots - Click to Enlarge]
"Faux G" - Black Ongoing Notifications (_BN-4G version, which I currently use)
Black Ongoing Notifications (_BN version)
White Ongoing Notifications (classic)
[Installation Instructions]
1. Download and install the latest version of MetaMorph (by Stericson) from the Market.
2. Turn on USB Debugging under the Android Settings -> Applications -> Development Menu.
3. Open MetaMorph and select "Unzip/Extract New Theme."
4. Select the appropriate version of my theme, click "Apply All," and reboot when prompted.
5. Change your carrier, clock, date, and notifications colors. (See below for instructions.)
[Changing Text Color Automatically - BN and BN-4G only for now]
-CM6.1 and beyond: Unzip Notifications_XML-FOR_CM6.1.zip and put the CMTheme folder on the root of your SDCard. Import the colors through the following: Android Settings -> CyanogenMod Settings -> User Interface -> Tweaks Extra -> Select A Theme
-CM6: Unzip Notifications_XML-FOR_BN.zip and put cmparts_ui.xml on the root of your SDCard. Import the colors through the following: Android Settings -> CyanogenMod Settings -> User Interface -> Tweaks Extra -> Import Colors from XML
[Changing the Text Color Manually - All ROMs]
BLACK ongoing notifications bar version
1. Navigate to Android Settings -> CyanogenMod Settings -> User Interface -> Status Bar Customization.
2. Change the following fields to white (#ffffffff): Battery Percentage, Clock, Carrier PLMN Label, Carrier SPN Label, Notifications Ticker, Notifications Count, Items Title Color, Items Text Color, and Items Time Color.
3. Change the following to black (#ff000000): No Notifications Title, Clear Notification Label, Ongoing Notifications Title, Latest Notifications Title.
WHITE ongoing notifications bar version
1. Navigate to Android Settings -> CyanogenMod Settings -> User Interface -> Status Bar Customization.
2. Change the following fields to white (#ffffffff): Battery Percentage, Clock, Carrier PLMN Label, Carrier SPN Label, Notifications Ticker, Notifications Count, No Notifications Title, Ongoing Notifications Title, Latest Notifications Title.
3. Change the following to black (#ff000000): Clear Notification Label, Items Title Color, Items Text Color, and Items Time Color.
[Changelog]
Classic (White Notifications) Edition
-None
Black Notifications Edition
1.2 - Discovered when looking in low light that the PNG incorporated in v1.1 wasn't truly 100% black. I replaced the PNG with a new one with RGB values of 0,0,0.
1.1 - Incorporated Eddiemc's changes for dark Notification Panels.
[Known Issues]
Classic (White Notifications) Edition
-None
Black Notifications Edition
-A very small percentage of applications employ their own methods of coloring their ongoing notification text. This cannot be changed with something like Cyanogenmod settings. This is no longer a bit issue because CM6 RC3 and beyond include a version of MusicMod that uses the system-wide notification text color.
[Future]
Classic (White Notifications) Edition
-None. This seems complete unless someone wants different icons.
Black Notifications Edition
-Look for a way to force all notification text to be white, even for troublesome apps.
[Troubleshooting]
-Morph stuck at "Applying" indefinitely? Make sure USB Debugging is enabled.
-Morph only applied to part of the bar and looks bad? Make sure you have custom notification and pulldown bars disabled. (CyanogenMod Settings -> User Interface -> Notification Colors and disable Custom Notification and Pulldown bars.) Also, if you're on CM 6.1+, go to CyanogenMod Settings -> User Interface -> Tweaks Extras -> Select a Theme and pick Stock. Reboot then reapply the theme.
-The latest version of MetaMorph works again. If you have issues applying the theme, and you have already made sure USB debugging was enabled, try the version of MetaMorph that I have uploaded as an attachment.

Credit: Thank you very much XebozZ for creating a wonderful base from which I created this Morph, Eddiemc for helping make the first _BN version, and obviously Cyanogen for pumping out CM6 RC!
Applied and it works great! Thanks man!
This is awesome, 5 stars. Thanks man. Pure black >>>> Desire grey IMO, and is great for showing off the great black levels of the AMOLED. I've been waiting for something like this for a long time. I've tried myself and failed.
It would also be cool if the pulldown notifiations are also black/dark with white font, I guess with the standard colors inverted. I think it's tricky it needs to be configured on an app level (I think, but am not sure). Anyways, if there's a toggle between standard/inverse color, that would also kick much ass.
Can you make an enomther version please?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Thanks. This is very nice indeed.
Thanks for the comments guys, and I'm really glad it works to your liking! And yeap, denimjunkie82. Precisely why I did it! Black looks so good on AMOLEDs!

I'll gladly see what I can do, but unfortunately I'm actually unfamiliar with Enomther's ROMs. Could you please tell me if his ROM has a settings panel inside his ROM, in which you can enter the aRGB values for notification colors (or does his ROM let you import SpareParts XML files like CyanogenMod does)? If so, this MORPH should work with minimal or no changes. If it doesn't have that option, I'm going to have to find out a way to change the text colors first.

Nope, as easy as walking, on cm6
Swap "status_bar_item_background_normal.9.png" in framework res to one that's black instead of white, and change text to white in CM settings.
Works on all app notifications, I'm using it myself. Black's nicer than white!
-e
edit... throw the png file into the framework res folder of the original morph, or just use the modified version attached (hope the op doesn't mind..)
Then change item notifications color in cm settings to white (#ffffffff)

Of course I don't mind. It saved me from figuring out the filename myself, which is much appreciated, so thank you very much for your contribution!
Appropriately, I have added your name in the _BN Morph, and in the original post.
I love it! I've always wanted to change that color. It works great thanks.
Can anyone verify the white text on black bars works on the Music app and Quick Settings? I've tried various morphs a few months ago and these apps leave black text in the Notifications panel no matter what, but that was before the Spare Parts method in Cyan 508-600RC.

First issue found... I've added it into the main post. Thanks for letting me know. Unfortunately, the spare parts method doesn't seem to change the music player text. A decent alternative would be to use the classic version with the black text and white ongoing notifications menu, as the text would appear as normal. I believe that these apps must be using some code on a per-app level that does this, as there simply isn't another field that I could see modified. This reason why they did this is likely because it has two slightly different colors (a black and a grey) in that notification.
Hopefully someone knows how to change the music player's text in the notification bar.
Here is a picture of the issue:
EDIT: Looks like it's true. It's probably part of the app itself.
In all honesty, though, this is a very minor issue, and if you don't know what song you're playing through the media player from your own music library, there may be another problem, haha. That said, I will see if anyone has come up with a real solution. I don't want to tell you to hold your phone a different way, haha. Oh wait, that's another company.
Awesome notification bar!
I'd like the gradient on the notification bar itself, with a gradient on the pull down notification. I somehow managed to mix this Metamorph, with another and got what I wanted (by mistake!).
If it's not too much trouble, could I get a .zip file (exactly like the you uploaded) but with a gradient (like the desired) notification bar?
looks good ima trying it out now what i been looking for

Notifications on black:
Yea, I just noticed this just now. As op states above, music app doesn't work properly.
I'm using spotify, so I never checked the music app... (btw spotify get white text as it should)
Quick Settings actually has an embedded option to change the text color (normal: white, inverted: black) so so that's no problem
All other apps I've seen works well (gets white text).
On cm6 we are all using the modded music app by Eliot Stocker, so I reckon he should be able to add an option to invert text (like quicksettings) if some of us asks him.
-e
edit....
If someone (op *hint hint*) want to ask him about notification color invert: http://twitter.com/eliotstocker
edit2...
For the more hardcore ones, adb pull the music app, change the xml settings for notification color in Music.apk\res\layout\statusbar.xml (this is beyond me atm, but I might give it a stab) adb push the app back, and voila you'll have white text
edit3...
I pass.
Here are the files if someone can pull this off. As far as I know, due to the way android works, the xml file needs to be hex edited.. I just cannot work out where the changes needs to be
edit4...
Even though I don't use the music app, this issue really bugs me..
If we can get the xml file changed, it can even be included in the morph (or as a seperate morph) so nobody has to adb.
I just posted in eliots thread about the settings option, so perhaps that works out, if not I'll ask his permission to pm around a bit to find someone who can edit the xml.
Now I'll stop editing this post
Is it possible to have an update.zip version of the Black Ongoing Notifications (new _BN version) please.
Don't like to isntall metamorph to install theme.
Black is really beautiful
Thanks.

Wow, good job. I don't use CM myself but I know a lot of people will appreciate this.
Just a quick status update to let everyone know that the issue will be fixed soon.
Eliot Stocker, who wrote the music app in CM6 just got back to me saying that he would add the feature into the next release. Thanks for the twitter link Eddiemc, and thank you again for all of your help!

Glad you like it. Actually, if you want a bar with gradients, though, you should check out XebozZ's gradient bar. He did a great job with that. My goal with this one was to not have a gradient so that it shows off the wonderful AMOLED blacks that we have!

edit - spelling
Blue Theme designed from/for THE NEW GUY v4.
THE BLUE GUY!
THE BLUEGUY v2
I made The New Guy v4 my daily driver, so i decided to theme it to MY liking, and i LIKE BLUE!
I took the original theme format Credit to the original themers!(though i dont know who they are) moddified it and added some of my own tweeks.
Changes include:
Blue Icons on Rosie dock
Blue Circle battery
Blue Signal Bars
Blue accents to status icons (will be editing more icons soon)
BLUE frame when moving icons on homescreens!!
All framework highlights BLUE (removed all green)
Removed GPS location icon (the crosshairs)
Themed HTC CLOCK Widget
Themed HTC Calendar Widget
Themed HTC Settings Widgets (hotspot , wifi, bluetooth, etc)
Themed MARKET APP(Vending.apk)
Themed GMAIL.apk
Themed stock MMS.apk
Themed Settings.apk
(I attempted to remove/replace all Green from regularly seen/used Apps)
SEE SCREEN SHOTS BELOW...
Its come to my attention that the clockwidget theme may not apply.. please reboot, then reapply the individual item if that happens. Should fix it!
UPDATE!!!
V2 is up, Thanx to Hatman... Ive added several images to the theme, aswell as HTCCamera.apk. Ive also fixed a few items that i noticed. More to come...

i havent flashed it yet but i know that with these new evo based framework roms, any little modd could mess up the animation. wich is cool if you disable it anyway, but i think that's one of the cool featers of these "evo" roms.
the theme looks sick thow... you got down on this!!!!

I did not apply any themes prior to this... Im not sure if that will affect anything, other than there may be changes in those themes that are still there, if I didnt edit them myself.
As far as the clock widget... I had to reapply it after a reboot. Im not sure why it acts this way. After the second time it worked fine... let me know it its still fuct... ill see if i can figure out why its being stubborn

Blue Lock Screen
So I just themed the generic lock screens blue Hope you enjoy. It is the same color that you used for your themes Drukan. BTW you are the reason that I am using this ROM. I LOVE blue and do not like red. This Theme is great!!!! So is the ROM. I cannot wait until he releases the 5 wide app drawer.

You use Metamorph. Put the zip file in the AndroidTheme directory on your SDCard and then launch MM and select extract new theme. After it is extracted then select pick exsisting theme. It will only work on the OP. The ones that I posted with the exception of the clock will not work as I just posted the extra png files that I added.
FYI, im gonna get into a few more apks and make some more changes.
Ive noticed a few things here n there that could use a lil BLUE!
I take no credit for creating this theme this is a port of the Darkness HD theme by Black'Up. I just used the template provided by blackup and icons made by other users to port the theme. I have tried to make custom icons for most of the apps that I use.
Features:
custom icons (thanks to black'up and macthemes community)
custom widget box skin and folder skin (thanks to newone from purple kush theme)
bounce animation(thanks aamikam and magnus for posting)
carousel animation for switching between tasks(taken from Multitasking pro app by Royerd) - Works well with itchingthumb
custom wallpaper (taken from insetHD theme on the iphone but modified to have android instead of apple)-u might have to add the wallpaper urself
includes auto brightness fix (from MIUI thread)
this is my first theme and i just figured out how to make it a flashable zip. I know it flashed fine for me so it should work.
also if there are icons you would like to see customized for this let me know.
Note this is based on MIUI 10.29 so i dont know how it will work for previous versions

It looks really nice.
Pretty badass looking. Nice work!
AwesomeZ!!!
A few questions.
Did you theme highlight colors? IE not android orange anymore for? I think all green would look great.
Also does this theme put a black backround around newly installed apps? I thought I saw this feature in purple.
Anyways, thanks for this theme. I will be flashing later today!!

Thanks guys ill try to get the icons requested in the next update. And no this is a theme for MIUI
Is there a way I can get to the Icons themselves I'm using Handcents but i'd like it to have the SMS Icon not the stock one and if I can get a hold of the .png i could rename it and place it in the folder for the Handcents.
Thank you!!

Yes there is. Use 7zip to open and find pngs
This should be the right path

im getting bootloops to no end... wiped EVERYTHING and reflashed rom then theme nd no dice... any ideas?
Rebuilt my theme from the moment http://forum.sdx-developers.com/theme-files/suave-enamored-di18-di06-and-de03-versions-updated/ for the EVO.
Dont let the name fool u it will diffenetly have sense
This theme has a modded services.jar taken from the azreal rom. So if your runing a different rom that has a modded services.jar u will lose those changes. As always nand backup b4 u flash

note: do not flash more then one zip at a time. flash theme then reboot to system then flash clock
Red Htc clock: flash via recovery

Wallpaper: DO NOT FLASH, UNPACK AND PUT ON SD CARD
http://www.mediafire.com/?fz15sqohfjd318q
PLANNED FUTURE CHANGES:
power controls in the notification bar
themed htc widgets
This theme has only been tested running the newest azreal rom based on the 3.70 ota. But should work with any 3.70 rom.
I'm not responsible if u turn your lovely evo into a paper weight
Having a problem, i have been trying to make the notification pulldown transparent and i made the png transparent, but now it just shows a black background. So i'm assuming there is a second background controled by a xml file or another png. Does anyone know what i have to edit to get it fully transparent?
FIXED
Reserved for my use.

2.2 requires an .xml edit in the services.jar to allow transparency in the notification background.

Thank you, thats what i was thinking. So i guess i will go poke around in the service.jar. Themeing the evo/2.2 is way more involved then 2.1/other phones
Looks good, can't wait... Thanks
Looks pretty sweet. My chick would love this on her evo

it's not an xml edit... you just need to resize the png to fit. it uses a small png and tiles it. so just resize it to 480x800 and you're cool. i've been modding those far a long time.
Oh, nice clock, by the way... if you are going to use my clock, can you please use my download link instead, thanx.
you want power widgets with custom themed pulldown backgrounds and pulldown bars hit me up...

I love the theme . But quick question , how are you changing the colors of the signal bars in the status bar ? I have tried and tried but once i pull them out GIMP2 only lets me darken them not change the color . I already know I must be doing it wrong so any help would be nice .

What!!!!! your asking me to give away my trade secrets? Just Kidding!!!! In gimp right click png go to image=mode=switch to RGB mode. Now u should be set to change color.
Also quick note Not sure if u know but the signal bars are actually in the com.htc.resources.apk and are named cdma_sys_6signal_X
I did not know that's where they were. Thanks I am going to give that a try.

Thanks. Worked great. Now my next question is where is the location and location off png I have checked all pngs and can't find it ,, I could be overlooking it but does any one know the correct file to look in ?? Thanks
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I believe what u are looking for is the gps pngs and it is in the com.htc.resources.apk and the pngs are sym_gpsone_3_sprint for gps off and sym_gpsone_0_sprint for gps on
This theme includes:
*window animations
*fonts
*CRT screen off animation
*blue transparent drop down menu
*battery icon
*blue transparent pop-ups
*icons
*blue volume and download bars
Unzip and move fonts to /system/fonts, systemui to /system/app. framework to /system/framework. Reboot. Make backups of the original files in case something goes wrong. You could also take the framework file from my crt animation thread and use it in the uot kitchen to make your own themes. Enjoy!
