Anyone got any idea whether the possibility exists to theme/skin the combined bar?
I am aware that EOS lets you change the colour, but my thought was along the lines of a background image or transparency for a theme/look I am working on.

Anyone know where this is located, also the froyo file that requires editing for the 'volume' level indicator/progress bar [orange in AOSP]
Doing my head in lol! gradient looks terrible on our phones! or mine anyway
Phone/drawable hdpi then incall Gradient its named.
Im noticing there is no simple way to use a custom background for the menu's etc like sony implimented
The progress_horizontal.xml which controls the progress bar colour is in framework-res/drawable folder.
yep thats what ive used, assumed it was diffrent in froyo, used the original one i changed on my 2.1 theme, still orange on this ;\ annoying
Hi guys.
I am trying to sort out a few issues with my AOKP, The notification bar at the top doest match my hearts requirement for a more green look. I want to change the colour of the carrier name, the date, the bar that seperates the date from the notifications. I also want to change the colour of the signal bars and the little H or what ever type of netowrk im connected too.
I would also like to change the text colour of all items in the settings menus. I know its probably alot of work and will require decompiling the framework_res.apk but im cool with that, I just dont know where I am looking to find the places I need to make my changes.
Let me know.
Maybe there is an app out there for doing this but I have not found it yet.
many thanks in advance.
Does anyone know how to change the notification bar colour from black to white?
Do you mean the regular emui notification bar? It adapts to the background image you set, so just set a brighter image or edit your current background to include a white bar at the top, though that would look a bit ugly.
If you mean the background when you pull the notification bar down, then you should have a look at custom emui themes, or even make your own somehow.
No i meant the actual expanded notification bar as the black doesn't work well with most apps and huawei uses black font as well when displaying notifs. I only think huawei themes work with stock launcher? And i use nova... Thanks anyway
I think the themes work everywhere, no matter what launcher (at least the notification bar part should). Not all themes include a modified notification bar though, so I think you could try one that definitely does change the notification bar and see it works for you in Nova launcher as well.
I'm attaching a theme I know for sure features a different notification bar for you to try. I also know it's terribly ugly but it's just for testing purposes, once you confirm that it does change the notification bar color for you, we could start disassembling the theme to only take out the interesting parts and adapt them to a different theme after changing the image from greenish to something more white-ish
PS. I had to change the extension to .zip for the board to accept the attachment, please change it to .hwt after you download it and move it into "/sdcard/HWThemes" so the theme manager can find it.

I have installed a white theme that i really like but now the text from status bar can't be seen as it is also white. Is there any way without root to change text colour or background? Changing the theme picture top could also be an option if i could find it and paint it dark but it's downloaded from theme store. Can it be found and be modified?
Did you find a way around this?
I once had an app called super status bar installed. It doesn't affect the original status bar (because AFAIK that's not possible without root) - but it replaces it completely and you can customize it then freely.
There are probably several other status bar replacement apps on the Play Store too, there should be something fitting for you.
I've tried 4 different exposed module's and haven't been able to successfully change the icons on my H810(10b). Has anyone found a module that did work to change the nab and status bar color? Other then running a theme engine is their any way to change the icons in the system directory? I'd really like to do some theming and color changes aswell.
