Changing Multiple Notification FONT color (not image)

[mattXdezzi]

Quick question for all the theming gurus... I am looking to change the font color for the multiple notification icon. See the following picture for reference:



I have already changed the stock red .9.png to a yellow one to match the rest of my Liberty ROM. However the white text doesn't show up well on a yellow background. Does anyone know how to change it to a different color?

Thanks,
Matt

decompile the framework-res.apk search the framework XML's for the image name and see if that dictates its color. either way, knowing the image name gives you a better chance. if you determine the color not to be set in xml, you will have to baksmali basically all of the framework jars (I'd start with services.jar) and search the smali files for the resource ID of that image (find it in public.xml of the framework-res.apk). Once you find that, you can search the surrounding code for the color value, or it could be another resource ID of a color set in colors.xml.... good luck

edit: if that is the case, and it is simply calling, say , foreground_dark (which I guess would be white, I havent themed in a very long time...) your only choice is to edit the smali code to use a direct color code rather than pull from a pre-set color from the framework. I'll try to help if you make it this far.

for anyone who finds this thread and is having the same problem. I figured it out. the color code is in status_bar_icon.xml in framework-res/res/layout: (line 5 i believe)

<TextView android:textSize="10.0sp" android:textStyle="bold" android:textColor="#ffffffff" android:gravity="center" android:layout_gravity="bottom|right|center" android:id="@id/number" android:background="@drawable/ic_notification_overlay" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginRight="1.0dip" android:layout_marginBottom="1.0dip" />

just change the android:textColor. It is in the format AARRGGBB

hope this helps.
