[Q] changing list menue background colour [solved] - Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody,
I try to change the background colour of the list menu:
My reserach in the internet point to framework-res.apk
color.xml
/res/values/style.xml
and so on.
These files are not available on the G3, so I really have no clue which xml is responsible for the background colour of the menue list.
Does anybody have a hint?
Cheers

i believe you can find them @ twframework-res.apk

If you are using the ADW launcher, i think you may have to mod the actual launcher apk. Not sure since i have never themed myself

its not an XML, but
menu_background_fill_parent_width.9.png
is responsible

[Q] Question about Mediascape theming

Hey guys,
first of all, I hope the thread is right here, but I'm not sure whether it belongs in here or to Question and Answers, sorry
Now to my question:
I want to theme Mediascape to make it fit my theme, I changed all the background icons in the "res" folder of the .apk file, but in the screen where the music plays I still have the original, blue background, what file do I have to change to change that screen?
Also I changed the ms_stat_playing_music_icn.png icon in the res folder to make it fit my statusbar, which is black, but the icon has still the blue background, so again, what file do I have to change to change that icon?
I hope you can help me.
Regards,
Flo

i think you are asking for modifying the music.apk.....
Thanks, but I think that's for the old version of Mediascape, because I have changed the first page of Mediascape successfully.
Since the 2.1.A.0.435 there are some little changes in the app.
I think the things you are after changing are in the SemcMediaPlayer.apk
I hope this helps.

[Q] Transparent background of system app and notification

I'd like to change the background of system app and notification area with Transparency...
For system app like phone, contacts, setting...
We can change the background as we change semc_bg.png and semc_general_bg.png in framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk.
But NO Transparency~~!!!!
For notification area, I tried to change shade_bg.png in SystemUI.apk But Nothing changed.
Could you somebody helpl me what xml and attribute I should modify for this two transparency~~??
All the files are in framework-res.apk/res only edit framework apk for appearance.
Its usually named notification some thing something.png so look around the res files.
By the way what rom are you using? If its miui its simple =)

Change background gradient without editing framework-res?

A quick question for any advanced themers out there...
I am working on a custom theme for the AOSP Messaging application. I have successfully edited everything in the app EXCEPT for the holo background, which I would like to change. Specifically I want to make the Holo gradient disappear and instead have a solid color that I define. Is it possible to set the background of the APK without having to change the framework-res.apk? If so, how can I do it?
Thanks!

I was only able to change the background by changing the png in framework-res. That's the place I think it gets it from. It took me a while to theme the Mms.apk the way I wanted to. That was before the developers for CM made it more themer friendly in recent builds. I changed a lot of stuff around in layouts that's now located all in colors.xml.

[Q] Transparent Lockscreen Xperia Stock Lockscreen

I have tried to make the stock lockscreen on the Z1 transparent. I thought it may be as easy as changing the default wallpaper in the XperiaLockScreen.apk to a transparent .png however it seems that the app will only let you choose a .jpg (Which we know does not support transparency)
So I decompiled the app to see the xml files but I cant find anywhere where it forces the background to be a .jpg.
I tried editing a few hex colour choices to make the first 2 digits from 00 to FF to force 100% transparency but nothing changed.
Can anyone point me in the right directions please.
Attached is the .apk and the framework-res
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/24614808/XperiaLockScreen.apk
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/24614808/framework-res.apk
Did you manage to do that? I have tried mods from older Xperia phones (whose APK name is UxpNxtLockScreen.apk) and it didn't work.
