Wondering if anyone can make a black google search widget
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
I have a Metamorph that makes the Google Search widget a dark smoked (semi-transparent) color. If you're running a stock-based ROM, it ought to work just fine as long as you're rooted.
However, I'm currently using the Virtuous ROM, which had the Google Search widget APK in data/app under a different name. If you run into any problems with the attached Metamorph, you may have to move it to system/app like I did. Let me know if that's the case.
All the image assets are from stiCk.E's CM7 theme designed for the Nexus One. Ah the good old days.
EDIT: WTF my attachment didn't save? Sorry-- fixed

I want to change the default music widget that comes with 2.1 transparent but i can't figure out where in the system the image is located. Any one know where the apk or image is?

I believe we are looking for the same thing.
In other words, where does HTC hide "music.apk" on the EVO? I can't find it but I know it's there somewhere. I know this because I'm running LauncherPro and can add the Music widget to my home screen. But I have no idea where it's coming from!
In any event, I want to apply the transparent morph to the stock widget, but can't do it until I can locate the .apk
In froyo the htc widget is in /system/app

System/app/music.apk is where you find the android one.
Any easy way to do this? Don't like the big white bar in the middle of my screen. I am limited in my abilities so if you can help thanks in advance.

hmmmm... is that from the genesis theme by shlayer? http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/slayher/2376-genesis-v1-1-a.html I dl'ed that an replaced the search widget from launcher pro with the one from that theme....

It's more a brushed metal look.
Can you post the dl link for the current theme you're using? I can drop that widget in there if you'd prefer that.
What I'm doing is pulling the search widget pngs from the theme and dropping them into launcher pro then resigning the apk. It's easy if you have the sdk setup, autosign and 7zip... but familiarity with image names and locations helps too.
I'm non rooted and was hoping to change the google search bar to something that matches a honeycomb theme? Can anyone help with this? Please pm me!
I see lots of people wanting to change the google bar colour ,I want the standard white google bar.
Is it possible to put the older style google search bar on ics software.I have downloaded some coloured ones from the play store which are the right style but the browser opens the same colour as the widget,hard on the eyes.
Changing the color should be as easy as changing the color of the graphics in the framework apk of whatever Rom you're on.

free app on the market for the widget
There is an app on the google play that helped me to get the transparent google widget, it is called custom ICS search widget and it works for android 4.4 kitKat.
Note: I am not associated with the app, just found it as a solution
Why is it so Damn!!! Difficult to alter the color of the google search widget using a theme. I've been trying for weeks to figure out how to do it to no avail. Can someone please explain how to do it. I'm looking at pictures of themes with blue google search widgets and can't get it to work for me. HELP!!!

I've decided that I wanna take the jump from the stock messaging app to Google Voice.
The thing is that the theming for the stock version is drab and unexciting.
Is there anyone who could make a few themed ones for us Google Voice adopters? I've seen one for the widget and one that works only on CM7, but one that everyone can use would be wonderful.
Preferably something black with green text...or something.
Thanks!
There's a inverted and a transparent Google voice in the epic themes section.

I'll take a look there, but it would be nice if our awesome themers gave us some options. Right now, for stock messaging, we have white and black but with the Google Voice app, there's a lot more options.
We should totally have some more choices
Been using GC for a few days and I like it a lot more than the stock Calendar app, especially the widget. The only thing I dont like about the widget are the colors used for the border. Wondering if someone can theme the widget with a dark theme, would love transparent black.
Or if someone could link me to a guide on how to theme it myself i'll try to do it on my own then share it if it works.

Check out the transparent widgets thread in Android Themes. I think they provide info and resources on how to edit the apk and would be a good place to start.
Also, i think it would save time and be helpful to post the apk in you OP. If someone was going to do it for you then they wouldn't want to have to find the apk and install it etc.
Good Luck! Sorry I couldn't be more of assistance :\
I am working on inverting it...

Shouldn't be an issue linking to a free app? I see people do it all the time...
