[THEME] Black Juice for rubiX Focused 1.6 - Final

...this is a thread about a (really sweet, btw) theme.
I agree in full, but am wishing I could read the buttons without squinting; it makes it hard to wait patiently wait for the next release...

Juicemane: If I buy you a whole 6-pack o' beer then will you tell us where the button text color is in your ROM?? ;)

^ Ill fix it guys, No worries. I need to test this against the new build of Focused so while I'm doing that Ill get the text sorted. Ive been so busy at work its insane, we had to reimage 400 PC's with Win 7 pro. Its been a PITA lol.



^ It will be the same as the version for 1.6 except for the button text issue and maybe a few other tweaks. Everyone seems pretty happy with everything (except the button text) so Ill fix that and test asap and get it pushed out for you guys :)

WHOA! You never said there were beers on the line...

Pretty sure that the button text color is held in:
framework-res/res/layout/status_bar_latest_event_content.xml

Code:
<com.android.server.status.ExpandedView android:orientation="vertical" android:focusable="true" android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants"
  xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <LinearLayout android:orientation="horizontal" android:background="@drawable/status_bar_header_background" android:paddingTop="3.0dip" android:paddingRight="3.0dip" android:paddingBottom="5.0dip" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content">

        </LinearLayout>
        <TextView android:textSize="14.0sp" android:textColor="#ff000000" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:id="@id/clear_all_button" android:background="@drawable/btn_default_small" android:paddingLeft="15.0dip" android:paddingRight="15.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginTop="4.0dip" android:layout_marginBottom="1.0dip" android:text="@string/status_bar_clear_all_button" style="\?android:attr/buttonStyle" />

Looks like it, I like them this way but it seems alot of people dont, maybe the brightness on their phones is to low? Everyones eyes are different, I may just make the grey button lighter and leave the text black... hmm

Looking at your post I would say that is a good guess. But the RGB values have been compiled and I am not sure how to edit it or change it and recompile. Thanks for your help (again) Sephtin, but I guess I will just have to be patient (unless you have a link for compiling ;), I'm always up for learning).

Your offer of Beers has inspired me!

To compile the file, you would have to compile the whole framework.
Guide to do this here if this is how you want to try it:
[HOW TO] 10% battery in themed framework apks - Android Forums
Note: The guide is to change battery .xml's.. ignore that part of the guide, and just follow everything else.

BUT, you could just edit the text color via hex editor:
--First, make sure you have a nandroid backup.
--No really.. make a backup. If you do something wrong, you'll be .sbf'ing and restoring from your nandroid backup. Then-
--Unzip framework-res in 7zip (or winrar, or whatever you use)
--Open it in HxD (Windows - HxD - Freeware Hex Editor and Disk Editor | mh-nexus), or HexEditor (Mac), or.. whatever HexEditor you prefer.
--In the Hex Editor, open search -> Find.
--Change the Datatype to Hex-values and search for 0800001C (TextColor).
--Behind that should be the Hex code for the color of the button text. (Default is 000000FF, Juice's might be FFFFFFFF)
--DO NOT DELETE, but change the 000000FF to whatever hex color you like.
--Save it.
--Re-zip up the framework-res as .zip
--Verify that the .zip file does NOT contain the framework-res folder, only it's contents (this is the biggest mistake made, and will result in you .sbf'ing due to bootloops if you get it wrong.)
--Once you're confident the framework file is correct, push it to your phone via ADB, or Root Explorer (will need to remount RW to do it)
--Reboot
--Enjoy

What text color were you looking for?

--Also, Juice, I'm horribly sorry for letting this HiJack your thread. None of this has ANYTHING to do with your Theme, and probably should have simply been redirected to it's own thread.. or taken offline. :(

Its no biggie bro :icon_ banana:
 
I am currently using Sephtins black bar theme for rubix 1.6 would I simply put this theme zip on the root on my sd and just install through bootstrap recovery clockwork or would by old theme need to be removed?

My bar is basically only 2 files... and pretty much every theme out there replaces both of them when installing.. you'll be safe to just install the theme...

Right on, would installing this theme remove any of my data/apps?
 
Nope, it just changes the look of the phone and very badassedly I might add. I just put this on 1.8.6 and WOW it looks good (green) minus those damn buttons lol. Black text on dark grey plus having had PRK laser eye surgery=no lol. Once you update it then it will be awesome though. I really think it should just be the stock grey/white text on the buttons like it is when it says "rubix focused" in the pulldown menu. Looking forward to v2.
 
This theme took some time. Sorry for the delays. I won't be making all of the different color variations due to time and money constraints so you guys are stuck with this and green for now lol. This theme is based off my original Black Bar Theme as well as Nextheme from Manup, and some tweaks from Sephtin's BBM.

Credit to Manup, Sephtin, Drod, and everyone else in the mod community!

I present to you, Black Juice Blue v1 for rubiX Focused 1.6

attachment.php


As always, be sure to do a full backup before installing. If you encounter any errors clear cache. Install via Bootstrap Recovery, Choose Install zip from SD, browse for file named Black.Juice.Blue.rubiX.1.6.zip, Install. Reboot and enjoy! Also, I know the buttons are dark grey with black text, I like it this way, if you do not, feel free to mod my Theme but please give credit where its due! Also, this theme is not complete. I have plans to rework a lot of the icons/text, but with the high demand I've had to finish, this is what you get for now! Please check back for updates!


** Change Log from Black Juice for rubiX 1.0 **

- 10% Battery Increments
- Settings.apk fully themed
- Dialer text issue fixed
- Working Black Sliders
- Changed every Icon imaginable
- Full theme (mostly)

** UPDATED 11/9 - Fixed battery increment back to 10%, Dunno what happened sorry about that!

Download Link below, also attached the wallpaper and added my Icon Pack (Icons.zip) Instructions for Icon's HERE
