Change status bar color on the Skyrocket - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

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,
--mike

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

Verizon 6.5+Sense 2.1 Slider help

For those using Verizon's TP2 who have flashed 6.5 + Sense 2.1... you may have noticed that the slider spacing seems a little off. Only 4 and 1/2 icons are shown on the slider at any given time and they don't line up properly when compared to every other ROM out there which have 5 complete icons showing (as did 6.1/TF3D).
For some reason... this bugs the heck out of me. I'm very interested in figuring out how to realign these icons so that 5 are displayed evenly along the slider at any given time.
I've tried C07's Mode 9 fix, but that only made the icons larger for me and did not effect their positioning on screen. Also allowed for a transparent slider... but I had already figured that one out on my own.
Can someone PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE point me in the direction of a fix, or is there a registry edit that controls lateral positioning of the slider icons?
Any help would be appreciated.
Ive been looking for awhile. Haven't found a fix. I was spoiled when running mighty. But enjoy the snappiness of Verizon 6.5 I haven't been able to find a clear slider that works either. If i find a way ill remember this post.

Touch X Transparent Slider Issue

I have an problem with the touch x transparent slider cab. When I install it, the bottom sense bar is transparent but I cannot see the icon where the selection box is. I can see all the icons on the bottom fine but I cannot see the icon where the slider/selection box is. For an example, If you slide all the way to the left on to the home screen and release your finger, I cannot see the home icon in the little square slector box. It seems to cover up the icon that it is over. I hope you guys can understand what I'm talking about. Can anyone post a fix cab for this? Thank you for your help and patience!
can anyone help me with this please

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your problem, but I think what you are explaining is actually what the cab does. It makes the 'slider' (i.e. the little frame around the 'slider icons') transparent, so you cannot see it.
If you do not like this and are just asking how to get it back to the way it was before, you just need to remove the cab i.e. go into Settings, select 'Application', then 'Remove Programs', then highlight 'touch x transparent slider cab' in the list and finally, click on 'Remove'. You will probably also need to perform a 'soft reset' after that, to get rid of the change completely...
If this is not what you meant, then please consider posting a screenshot of the problem and adding it to the description on this thread.
im still not understanding your problem completely, can u clarify it for me?
His problem is that He don't see the icon on his slider selection because of the fact he don't used a transparent slider selector on a slider who have in his M9 mode the Icon you see on the slider turns off!!
But he used different combination's! so it is quit difficult to solved it!
I thin'k it will be more simpler that he make a choice on what he will and modified the m9 values of the manila file in function of his depends!
If not, it will not be easy fore anyone to make a fix cab! The last week I give him a solution, but it seem's he changed already to a other slider. the problem of the m9 file is that there are also other data of other stuff he used!
thank you for clarifying that Kurt. I guess I will just have to do with out the touch x transparent slider cab.

changing order of icons in notification area

Since we can remove icons, I figure there has to be a way to reorder them.
Specifically I'm looking to move the wifi/3G icon to be after the Cell signal (but before the battery). Also I'd like for the vibrate icon to be to the left of all the icons.
anyone know if this is possible?
has anyone even looked into this?
If you haven't figured it out yet, try searching the Incredibly Re-Engineered thread. I know it's in there somewhere.

[Resolved] So...i derped with metamorph...

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

[Q] [HELPNEEDED] Notification text...

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)
