status bar text color? - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to change the text color of whats in the status bar such as clock, date, when "media scanner" pops up and all that stuff. Does anyone know where I could find that .xml?
Edit: so I found out how to get all the writing that shows on the left side but where would I find the clock color's .xml?

If you use AOKP you don't need to edit anything and change the colors easily through settings.
Unless your planning to do this on TW or making a theme?

Yup its a TW theme. And I found the color of everything on the left side in systemui/res/layout/statusbar.xml but I can't find the clocks color.

Do you know smali... pretty sure there is a line in the clock smali where you can change the color... it was discussed a little in the last 2 pages of the updated ics tw theme by nashdogg

The ics theme is a great example of the clock color. And I even tried mixing some xmls and stuff from that one into my themes and sometimes it worked but I never figured out what it was exactly.
Ill check it out and see, thanks.

To change the clock color you need to decompile the classes.dex file in system UI. There is one line in the clock.smali that needs to be changed. I don't remember what line number it was though.

[Q] Font Color on Status Bar

Im working on a theme, and i've successfully themed the status bar, but i need to know how to change the color of the font on the status bar and in the drop down menu to black. I can't seem to find what lines to edit in the status_bar.xml using my hex editor. Any help would be greatfully appreciated. Thanks.
Go check out the vibrant themes section.. I have a sticky for metamorph.. There is a tutorial how to manually change xmls for font color...
I'm going to tell you u couldn't get the clock to change in the vibrant.. i could change the date but not the clock.. We have actually changed everything but the time...
Tmo did something with our framework so it may just be the vibrant but idk...
God luck..any questions pm me

I think your referring to rosie for the lower bar
Rosie is found in two different .apk's Rosie.apk and htc-resources.apk>drawable-port-hdpi
Taskbar/Statusbar is found inside the same resources apk, except the folder is drawable-hdpi (statusbar_background.png)
Thank you so much!

Fcuk hit send button..
In the systemUI folder that pops up in apktool folder there was only smali folder. No manifest no res nothing just smali.. I deleted and retried like 12 times with different rom bases. I even tried yours to just see where edits where made maybe thinking I could make zip but nothing worked. The closest I got was with apk manager. Im dumb though and just literally installed notepad++ now. Wish I had yesterday. My desktop looks like my kids room. Lol

What tint are you talking about? I don't notice it.
There is a tint of your notifications that come in the top left of the screen. I believe it takes away a lot of the good looks of touchwiz roms. When the tint is removed I believe it looks so much better
The correct way to do it is decompile the SystemUI.apk, then in the values folder open the dimens.xml.
Edit line 25 and 26 and change the % to 100.0% on both lines and recompile.

Hey bp. Thanks for the response. Any possible way you can make a zipp that can be flashed on touchwiz roms to eliminate the tint? It would be much appreciated!
