[Q] Question about Purple Glass Cyanogen Mod Froyo 2.2 color settings - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I installed this on my wife's CDMA Hero because she really likes purple.
I have went into the Cyanogen settings menu, under User Interface and Notification colors and changed every setting I can find, and I still cannot get the notification texts to display white on purple.
I've changed:
Notification ticker color
Notification count color
No notification title color
Clear notifications label color
Ongoing notifications title color
Latest notifications title color
Items title color
Items text color
Items time color
None of these has changed the actual text inside the notification bar that you pull down.
What am I doing wrong here? I know the directions when loading the custom color ROM's stated you would have to change these colors for greater visibility, but, I think I have covered everything here.
I have even tried to download new items since making these changes and the new items are not showing up in the new color either.
Thanks.

Nevermind.
Found out that a reboot of the phone turned the text white.
Not sure which setting did the trick, so I'm not changing anything.
Thanks.

It wasn't a setting, you have to reboot to see your changes. Glad you got it though

Adjusting selection color in selection square and text in Start...

I found this information about changing the background for the Start menu-program-thing; which works fine, however, i can't figure out how to change the color of the selection square and the text.
I'd like to get a gray gradient going, but won't be able to read black text.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt
[edit]
to change the background for the lock screen, which is actually the Info Screen, adjust the settings in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:InformationBox
The selection square color is the color set in COLOR_HOMEHIGHLIGHT (which is defined in current homescreen or active scheme).
COLOR_HOMEHIGHLIGHTTEXT is fot highlighted/selected item text.
(Im not 100% sure now, I havent edited colors in homescreen for some time.)

Theming android: change text color of clock

I'm trying to create a theme for android, I'm currently working on SuperE 1.0.2
I've made the notification bar black, but the problem is that the clock in the corner is still in black so you can't read the time.
i know that other themes (like darkstar)with black title bars have been able to turn that text white.
any help here?
Im having the same issue I cant see my clock because it and my bar are black. How can we fix this? thanks
same problem here
On the homescreen, hit menu-> settings-> spare parts. Scroll down to notifications and change the text color lol. It's a feature in CM5 based roms.

questions about status bar colors in cyanogen 6

so i just rooted my phone and put on cyanogen 6 - the stable version. i noticed that i can now change the coloring of the status bar and the notifications. i've made everything to black however like say when a text comes in the text color is in black and i can not read that. is there a way to modify the colors?
Yes, under Cyanogen Settings > User Interface > Notifications Colors. You have to change several of them.
Here's a good tutorial --> http://www.absolutelyandroid.com/ui-tweaks-on-cm6-a-tutorial/

tile colors? Newb here

Is it possible to change the downloaded tile colors to the same color scheme you have the phone set to? such as i have my 620 set to green but the twitter and facebook app are blue. Is this possible? coming from android so kind of lost
App tiles are only set to your selected accent color if the app developer made the tile backgrounds transparent. For apps which have a "standard" color, such as Twitter's light blue, that will usually not be the case. It's purely up to the developer, though.
With interop-unlock, it should become possible to replace those icons with other ones... it's not going to be trivial, though.
afaik, this app should allow you to do so:

I have not tried, though as I like the occasional splash of color on the screen.

5.1 LP - change notifications panel text color?

Hey,
Im looking for an option to change one or several of the following options:
- change quick settings font color in notification panel
- change font color of app notifications
- set background color for app notifications only, not quick settings background
take a look at this screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/KnWq2s1.png
I want to keep the blurred style with 100% transparency for the quick settings background. But the black text from app notifications is hard to read sometimes, so I would like to change that to white. If that's not possible, make quick settings font black as well. If that's not possible, add a white background to app notifications only.
I can't find anything how to do that. Hope somebody can help me out.
edit: SOLVED
wow, after searching for hours with no result, I found something shortly after I made this thread. I used this to achieve this
so you used this to change the background of the notifications from white to match your selected notification background? I have been trying to figure out how to make the notification background not white...

Well, yeah, I changed the notification background color with LPThemer, but that's not what this post was about and I did it because of another reason. I was just looking for something that allows me to change text color of notifications, because the default black looks ****ty with transparency. It's default black because the default background is white. I used Blurred System UI to make the background transparent as well as add the blurred effect. Then I used LPThemer to change notification text color to white. Then I noticed notifications background was still white (not transparent) in Lock Screen, but the text color remained white. It's hard to read white on white so I used LPThemer to change the background to a half-transparent black. This background is only displayed in lock screen though.

Sweet I think I'm going to do almost the exact thing you did because I can't stand the white background on notifications blinding me at night... Plus it just looks bad. Good to know I can change the font to color to something legible. Good job
Help me
