Hi,
I'm trying to figure out, if there is a way to determinate the standard notification color for a device. Since there are different options to theme the system, including the notification, it's not always the API-specific background color. So if anyone know a method, with which I could get the real color, that would be awesome
Thanks in advance!

I installed a ROM yesterday and now my notification bar, once it's expanded/pulled down, has a certain amount of transparency... a lot more transparent than I'd like.
Are there any simple mods I can do to change the alpha values to make it more opaque or have I just got to put up with it? Or is it possible to install a different notification (expanded) screen?
Thanks.
The notificatiin bar can be modified from theme, so you have to find a good one for your rom.

I see, so I can't just modify that current screen? I have to overwrite the whole current theme? Was kind of hoping to keep it how it is and just get the background colour to solid black of the expanded notifications bar.
Thanks anyway, was beginning to think this could be a possible scenario.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Of course you can just change the background.
Thats how a theme is done, taking all the files and modifying them.
You would have to find the files responsible for the notification bar and change them to suit your needs.
How to do that i don't know, but i'm sure the forum search and google will help you out, when you search for something like "android theme tutorial" or something like that.
is it normal not being able to change the number and the colour of the dock buttons (i mean the fixed ones at the bottom of the screen), background image and also the colour of the fancy lights moving around the background of the screen by changing the theme with theme chooser?i am wondering because even if i change the theme that has a different background image etc. the ones i mentioned dont change at all.
by the way, i have searched the web but couldnt find an answer.
thanks..
Hi, does anybody know if they changed the black background from the email, contacts and messages for the white one, or if at least they give us the choice to change it?
I saw in some videos the white background but just want to confirm if it is for real.
Thanks in advance
Somebody may use root to change the color or an launcher.
Hi, I like everyone in the android community is anxiously waiting for kit Kat to arrive and like many are also hoping for a lighter UI (holo light). I want my system to match the rest of the Google Apps and am asking if anyone knows of any good UI or framework themes that are Google UI themed (holo light). I have been looking for awhile and come across a couple decent ones which include holo light theme for aokp / cm and cm holoWhite theme. If anyone knows of any others please post or if are looking for the same thing and I've helped you press the thanks button.

Sadly, there aren't. Partly because Google designed Android in such a way that apps use either system colors, or a mix of system colors and app colors. If you change the system colors, then apps that use both suddenly end up with invisible text and such. While this is gotten around in many cases with the Theme Engine, the status bar and notification shade are two of the worst offenders. Thus, even cm9/cm10 themes don't change the background color on the status to white or other very light colors. To do so would render a LOT of notification text and status bar icons invisible.
About the only way to fix this would be to make it such that any text displayed outside an app's own UI (ie, in the status bar or notification shade) would be forced to comply to system colors. That is not currently done.
MIUI achieves this, but only through very heavy modification of the system framework - and a few apps are still balky and require a "compatibility mode".

Randomly my notification font color changing to white which makes it difficult to read. At times its like version - 1 black font. which is correct.
Its very random that's why im bit confused. any idea how to resolve this?
Thanks
Just FYI under lockscreen notification setting i've already disabled "Auto-revert text color" option
anyone? not sure if its something common or something to do with my sw
