Did quite a bit of searching before i finally gave in.
Normally i almost religiously back up everything...this time i did not...obviously...or i would be reflashing and simply reinstalling
now i did not brick my Samsung vitality, I am not that stupid...however i did try out metamorph being bored...and its really a small issue but something i cant for the life of me get rid of...
on the swipe down notifications bar the stock battery color is green...well mine is blue...and currently the text in the notification area...is dark grey on black...so i have to tilt the phone to see anything.
anybody have any ideas on how i can fix this? or have just a basic stock rom for the samsung vitality.
there should be a notification bar color changer metamorph file for your phone
maybe even a text color changer
yeah its the text thats killing me, here sec lemme get a photo of it.
picture added its the black text on daaaark grey background, i just need to figure out how to change that text color to white
edit 2 picture is in edit box. wont let me post it otherwise.
fixed it, i think it was an issue with the framework not installing before a reset on metamorph, thanks for the assistance

I was wondering if anyone has had this happen before? I was just on my Captivate checking a few apps out and then all of a sudden the screen froze for a few seconds and all the icons disappeared and only the wallpaper was left displayed. During that time I was tapping the screen and whatnot wondering what happened and it stayed frozen like this for maybe 30 seconds before it finally came back to life, but I then noticed that whatever icons were displayed on the left side of the status bar turned grey and also when I pull down the menu from the bar it is also grey in color now.
Also I've noticed that the settings menu seems greyer as well. Does anyone have a way to fix this and bring the color back as the grey looks pretty crappy. I'm using Darky's 9.2 rom right now.
Edit: now that I'm looking at it more, it seems like ALL of the menus in all my apps now are greyed. Where before it use to be in color now everything is a dull grey?!
Can anyone help please??
Master Reset. Something (maybe a messed up app?) screwed up the graphics of your phone so if just restarting (... you DID try turning it off and back on, right?) doesn't work then just back up and master reset.
I'm guessing that you have tried rebooting, but if not try that. If that doesn't work flash to stock using Odin and if it still isn't fixed then try to get a replacement.
Hey, so the notification text colour in the 'drawer' is black, on a dark grey background which makes it almost impossible to read for mst things (downloads etc)
Is there any way to change this? I'd like to change the colour to white or somethng
Thanks in advance!
U can play with UOT kitchen, but several things seem not to work for our stock rom (window animation/lock screens/notification power buttons) It's easy and doesn't harm to try though.
go to uot.dakra.lt/
Thanks for the link, I tried out just changing the notification drawer, but although most of the edit worked, I lost the drawer transparency :/
More experimentation required! (I'll post back here if I have success)
Hey all,
I have modified my phone with a blue/tech-like appearance throughout most of the phone and applications. They very last thing missing that I can't seem to figure out is how to change the status bar text/icon color? I've done this on other phones in the past but can't seem to do it with this one.
Take a look at the attachment. That is my current homepage. I would like the top status bar to have a blue color as close to theme or clock color.
Any way to do this?
Thanks!
Anyone have some ideas on how to do this? I was able to change all the icons on status bar/task bar to blue with the exception of the time. I can't seem to change it.
Thanks,
Did you figure this out? I've been trying as well.
Yes, I was able to change absolutely everything except for the Time. I still can't figure out how to change the damn time. Also, obviously you likely won't be able to change the 4G icon because it is quite different in appearance and it doesn't seem to replace it.
If anyone knows how to change time color, please let me know.
Thanks,

Same here, I changed the color of date, notifications text in status bar and all icons. Here is a good tutorial, but didn't work either.

At first you might be like "huh?" if you've never used it but its a wonderful resource for things like that. Also a real time saver for battery mods n such
been a long time since I've been active here.
but could use some help. I have "red_burst" theme from the galaxy store that I bought. but there's still a lot off white left.
like in the nav bar.. above the keyboard for word suggestions and notifications bar.. among other places. I tried a few apks from the theme section but my phone started acting up and I had to do a factory reset.
could someone help me out... I'm overwhelmed with all these apks. back in the day we would just root and throw on a custom Rom. don't want to root so I'm trying it this way.
I'll PayPal someone $5 if they list all the apks I need to black out all this white space on this phone... and still make it usable of course. I don't even know where to start with the apk files.
bonus: blank out my nav bar and turn the nav keys red.. but keep the order (back, home, apps)
There's a couple of threads, Dark Notifications and Overlays. And there is Substratum for Samsung, the dark notifications only have grey type which some say is hard to read but to me is better than white.
Here a screen of the best you can do for now but the devs are working on it.
I have asked in the original thread how to fix this issue since December but no one has replied. Does anyone know how to fix this issue with the modified launcher? The white Halo appears after a reboot. It goes away once you update the launcher and uninstall. The yellow screen in the settings never goes away.
Never seen something like that sorry

I tried to make my screen look like yours and was not able to get it exactly the same...but I wonder if you have a certain combination of conflicting settings going on here? When you go to settings > system > Accessibility... there are two settings in here called Color correction, and Color inversion. Using these with a light, or dark theme and having night mode with a manual screen color calibration under the display settings could render your screen yellow. Is it only the settings screen that is that yellow or is there any other "white" screens that look yellow? Also, the highlight color can be changed to whatever you want which would make the lettering red as it is on your settings screen. So, my suggestion would be to go through all these various settings to see if somehow things got all screwed up. YMMV
