[Help] How do I change the top bar and bottom bar colors?

I have a ATT Tilt w/ default rom.
The WAD2 theme I am using is black, however, the top bar and bottom bar are still the default blue. So when I go into file explorer or click on the start button, the default blue bars ruin my theme.
Any way to change those to black?
I searched and came across some threads, but those went beyond what I was looking for and confused me (not a programmer).
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
I am even welling to install WA3 to get it black.

Hope this helps

I was also looking for some bluetooth and wifi buttons that might match this theme. Any help/suggestion? Thanks

You should search for BlackBerry Redux theme.
Someone else did it and it is an amazing theme. I have changed a couple items to match my needs and WAD2 is great for that. Easy to learn also.

[Theme] Red Raider v0.1

This is a theme for Sky Raider 3.3 final that I just got started with. Only a few things are themed for now.
The icons are black (not all are themed right now) and the framework is mostly red (again, not all is finished).
Download: The file is 115.03 MB. Sorry there are TONS of icons! It is named v0Test, but don't worry, it is the right version.
Red Raider v0.1
Mirror
Flash it like any other theme.
MANY Updates are coming.

Sweet...gonna take this one for a spin when I get home.
Love the red/black gradients. Not so big on the font, but I can easily remedy that.
So I'm assuming this will automagically replace all the icons? What if I decide I don't like 'em? Any way to do this without replacing the icons?
Thanks, HTC!

Just open up the .zip file, go into system, and delete the 'app' folder. That will remove the themed icons.

What program did you use to take those screen shots?

Drocap2. It is pretty nice.

Yea it is, im using screen shots and it is terrible

Drocap is very nice. I also use PicMe, which is pretty dang cool if you're at your computer. Acts like a server on your phone, so you actually pull up your phone's screen on your laptop/'puter, capture it, and easily post it to your fav photo repository site. Between that and the Drocap/Photobucket app combo, capturing and posting screencaps is actually a pretty simple affair.

I am currently working on a v0.2 release.

Just wondering when v2 will be out. I really like this so far.

I just need permissions from a mod for one thing.
Then I will post it.

Are you waiting for permission for the red swype? If they say no, I also have a red shapewriter!

Are you going to mod the color on the market, phone, etc? Looking forward to seeing v0.2 and the screenies when you get it finished.
Thanks for the work and appreciate it.

System Colors?

hi @all
i'm using the latest energy rom from here. I was trying to change the colors of outlook and the rest of the original windows mobile stuff from white background to black background and white text with sktools.
So far, so godd but i have the problem, that now the contact list is white background/white text just the highlighted one is ok. in SMS view via outlook it works great and even some menus are good some others not working that way but i think these are sense menus which would be ok for me. For example the file manager is also as i like it. what to do to solve this problem is there a solution? or maybe an easier way to change just this white background into black and the main text into white?

you probably will not able to do, wm background color value is used for others screens, I mean: when you set a black BG ,the same value is used for something else (can't remember which element.. text or highlight).
then every black background has this side effect.
the best you can reach is this dark grey combination (from Artemis rom thread and a WP7 variation) that let you read the text in all situations

you can also play with the attached UITweaker , not every option work on wm6.5 but the most of them do, and make all your tests.
for more infos check out the windows mobile forum and look for skinning WM6.5 threads

thanks alot! i got an compromise now which is working well so far. with sktools i swapped the color values and somehow now it works great even the highlighted stuff is ok so i found nothing which is incorrect so far even the settings menu or so it's fine don't know why it wasn't working the first time i did that. i would go over to android but i need the garmin app which is not working under it.

[Theme][ICS]Email widget dark skin

Hey guys,
Because I have a long commute to work and back (1 hour total!!!), today I worked on a new skin for the ICS email widget. I did it because all the white it uses by default did not fit with any of the other widgets I have, and I used to hate it!!!
Here is a screenshot of the result:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Sadly, I can't edit the header text color while working only on my tab in a subway (lol!), so this will have to do. There is no real info in the header text anyway, so for me it's ok.
I have also created a ZIP (and tested it) that you can flash using CWM for convenience. The zip is attached to this post. Please say thanks if you like it and I hope you enjoy it.
Note that you may need to define your email accounts again. This is normal behavior (added security by Android in case someone tries to tamper with your accounts). Also note that the app is untouched (I like it overall, same as the calendar but the latter has a dark widget :-D), only the widget was skinned.
PS: also feel free to report any issues with the APK or the ZIP in this thread.
Peace,
C.

Thanks! will try now...wanted to ask, how did you make your layout like ICS?

I have to admit that I don't really understand the question.
I am running ICS on my Tab, so I don't have to make the layout, it just is :-D

for me the cwm package works perfectly out of the box.
i love the new widget look, maybe you can make it so the text cannot be seen at all?
spamming thanks buttons (also for work on ICS)!!

Thanks. Looks good. I wish there was a way to make ICS use more screen real estate. The square is driving me a little crazy.

ICS 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 have same email ver 4.1

Indeed, the CWM zip is compatible with all current versions of ICS, including CM9 and AOKP.
Let me know if you encounter issues while using it.

4g icon (blue ATT ICS)

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS AS A RESULT OF USING THE FILES POSTED HERE!
Edit: thread looks horrible on xda phone app, will fix this when I have some time.
I want to thank ENDLESS2232, for working the 4g icon set I requested.
I wanted to, create a icon set myself, so I could use until I had the one he created(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1643176), and since I have the att ones I thought it would be nice to share them.
I pulled these out of the HTC One X, and converted them to blue to match my black and blue theme on tweaked 2.0.
I dont know how to create a flash-able file so I copied the systemui.apk from my phone, and that is what is posted here. Therefore only use it if you are currently on black and blue theme from tweaked 2.0. (REMEMBER I HAVE NO IDEA IF IT IS SAFE TO DO THIS)
What I did was replace the file on my phone using "Root Explorer"
That is what it looks like:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Here is the systemui.apk if you want to try:
View attachment SystemUI.apk
Here is the icon set if someone wants to make a flashable file, or use ninjamorph:
View attachment 4g_icon.zip
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is it on my phone:
I have never done anything like this before, so I have no Idea if there is a better placement for these files on systemui.apk .... Any comments, are appreciated!

Thanks, I just copy and posted the systemui rebooted and now have a custom 4g symbol. The blue is a little fall, but still looks great.

Do you have a 3g icon like this. Also it could stand to be a lighter blue. It looks ok unless my phone is set to minimum brightness though. Thanks for this.

I went back to the original because this is too dark and the only way I can see it is to have my phone set to full brightness.
