Change the default orange highlight color

Android seems to prefer orange color. It's used in highlight focused edit control. Also, in Gingerbread it's used to indicate you scroll to top/bottom.
How do I change the color, I really don't like it and want something bluish.
Thanks!
I have been wondering this for a while too! Anyone know?
Would interrest me too...
No one knows???
List selector resource ... but it is in the os applications which you cannot access without rout access
I have root but don't completely understand what u mean. Could you add a little detail please
Thanks in advance
From what I know resource are located in /system/framework/framework-res.apk.
Now you have to Disassemble this apk , modify the png's you are interested in , reassemble the apk an copy back to phone.
Now .. disassemble/assemble you can use apk-tool.
You should search for list_selector_background_focus.9.png and other list_selector....png modify those .
I don't know how to copy the reassembled apk back to the phone as I don't have a rooted phone and can't guarantee it will work, but if there are no other replies from more experienced users ... you can give it a try
Youll find the images in framework-res.apk/res/drawable-mdpi.
If your new to Modding and the like I'd advise apk-manager.It uses apk-tool but is more user friendly and will allow you to push(copy) the edited framework. There's a link for it in my sig.
Hope this helps.
Find a ROM, metamorph or Theme you like and apply it. Quickest and easiest solution!

[Q] Removing Multiwindow.jar

Hello all,
Pardon my noob-ness..
I dont really use multiwindow feature in my note, I'm happily chroot with framebuffer and vnc.. and multiwindow feature always annoyed me whenever I work in vnc.. I know i could just change rom but I love the stability of stock 4.1.2. I've managed to stripped down everything including the minimode all that left is the multiwindow.jar and odex
I'm looking for a way to simply kill this feature, just the way I kill minimode..
Is it safe to remove this multiwindow.jar and will it remove the multiwindow feat?
Any respons are greatly appreciated.. Thank you!
'stupid' solution
Never mind guys, I just create new icon 1x1 px of transparent png and problem solved.. well not exactly.. multiwindow process is still there running in background.. but I wont take bootloop risk for just saving a few MB ram for now.. :laugh:

Help for theming ;)

Hi everyone! I need some help to make some theming on my Taoshan and if it's done i will share it to you
So, like in the pictures i'd like to change these buttons and backgrounds. I decompile these png's and I know where to put it but don't know where and how to change the colors and size. I search the threads over and over again, but no luck. (Like: [TUT][JB] How to theme SystemUI.apk for totally newbie, and [Guide] Want to learn how to theme?, and some others) The really big problem is that I canT find those values that I have to edit, even I decompile the SystemUI.apk fine (I have all the folders and xml's).
What I really wanna do is that achieve a stock android ui with those fine simple icons (the buttons sequence dosn't matter, but it will be great, and if I be able to add some more... :fingers-crossed, 'cause I really like it (with holo blue or grey), like in the Slim rom that I used on my Xperia Neo.
So anyone can help me pls respond :angel:
I know something about photoshop and designing so maybe it will be a greater project

How to delete Quick Settings Icons/Shortcuts?

Hi there! I'm currently using a custom ROM on my J7 2015. (DNAZero to be precise). However, I'm looking for a way to modify the Quick Settings Panel, given there are two functions that don't work, (see screenshot). These two functions are Always on Display and Blue Light Filter. What I want to do is remove them completely, or at least disable them from appearing in the QS Panel.
I've already decompiled System UI using Apktool, but I don't know which files to modify. I know it has to be in the Resources Folder (res), but I don't know which subfolder I have to get into. Does anybody have an idea? Thanks for any response.
