I don't know about the color part, but if you hit menu on the main screen of font installer then preferences, you can choose which fonts to overwrite/ replace. Hope that helps. Make a backup I guess in case you don't like the way something looks when you're done.

Well you will first need to decompile the framework apk's and edit the text color on those as many apps call to framework-res.apk/com.htc.resources.apk for text color then where you don't see changes you will need to decompile the particular apk associated with the place you like to change it. For example, statusbar related text is found in SystemUI.apk. Once you decompile it go to the color folder and you will see list_item_primary_text.xml, open it and you will see
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_enabled="false" android:color="[COLOR="red"]@color/primary_text_disable"[/COLOR] />
<item android:color="[COLOR="Red"]@android:color/primary_text_dark[/COLOR]" />
</selector>
notice the sections marked in red.
The first one @color/primary_text_disable tells you that the color code is coming from within the app so go to /res/values/colors.xml and open it. you will see the following code
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<color name="status_bar_recents_app_label_color">#ffffffff</color>
<color name="notification_list_shadow_top">#80000000</color>
<color name="white">#ffffffff</color>
<color name="black">#ff000000</color>
<color name="half_white">#7fffffff</color>
<color name="half_black">#7f000000</color>
[COLOR="red"]<color name="primary_text_disable">#ff4c4c4c</color>[/COLOR]
<color name="secondary_text_disable">#ff4c4c4c</color>
<color name="multiply_color">#ffbdff67</color>
</resources>
here is the color code its referring to. Now you can either change the color code here or you can just change android:color="@color/primary_text_disable" to android:color="colorcodehere" (example ff000000)
Now notice the <item android:color="@android:color/primary_text_dark" /> on the first code...this tells us that the code is being called upon from the framework.
You can also change "@android:color/primary_text_dark" to "colorcodehere" or to "@color/primary_text_disable" to make the color reference internal in the app.
There are many different ways to get the changes you want...some changes are a bit harder as they are coded through smali.
I suggest you start with a non-framework apk and make the color references internal.
Hope this helps

Will change color as the status bar? I would like to help me, I'm using CM9, thanks. Now color is black
Okay, I'm finally in a position to answer this properly. First, you need to decompile SystemUI.apk. The best tool I can recommend for this is Tickle My Android. Partially because I made it, but also because I know it works for our devices. I'm always messing around with my SystemUI.apk and I never have any issues. Next, edit res\layout\status_bar.xml This is the code that describes how your status bar is put together and in there will a line of code similar to: Code: <com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Clock android:id="@id/clock" android:paddingLeft="6.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:gravity="left|center" android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" android:singleLine="true" /> Exactly what you'll have, I don't know, but there'll be mention of the clock somewhere. Now you just need to add one extra parameter, 'android:textColor': Code: <com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Clock android:id="@id/clock" android:paddingLeft="6.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:gravity="left|center" android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.StatusBar.Clock" android:singleLine="true" android:textColor="#ff33b5e5"/> Here, the 'ff33b5e5' is an ARGB code for a particular colour and transparency. Work out what the code for the colour you want is and change the line to fit. Now, recompile the apk, get the compression and signing right and put it back on your phone. Simple. I have mentioned making a new style to do this. This is possible and will help if you're changing the colour of a lot of strings of text, but it's not needed just to this one thing. ---------- Post added at 09:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 AM ---------- whalesplaho said: tha above code wont work?? Click to expand... Click to collapse Oh, it will. But it will change the colour of everything that uses that style. Nothing wrong with that at all..if that's what you want to do. ---------- Post added at 09:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 AM ---------- cholopo said: Will change color as the status bar?

In which program you do it ? Because i have it:
streetu said: In which program you do it ? Because i have it: Click to expand... Click to collapse I just use Notepad. Sometimes Notepad++ if I'm working on xml that's very busy. Did you decompile the apk?
I do all but color is same like before :/
streetu said: I do all but color is same like before :/ Click to expand... Click to collapse Hmm..what colour did you try to change it to? Are you using a theme at all?
From cyan to violet
streetu said: From cyan to violet Click to expand... Click to collapse Simple enough, I did the same sort of thing to my tablet (although I got my colour code wrong and made it pink instead..lol) Can you share your status_bar.xml and I'll see what's gone wrong?
This is my status_bar.xml
streetu said: This is my status_bar.xml Click to expand... Click to collapse I think I know what the problem is. You've got your clock colour as a RGB code but it needs to be ARPG. If you're not too worried about having transparency, try putting 'ff' in front of the colour code.

CM10 lockscreen theming
I searched like crazy and couldn't find anything out. At one point I found someone who had the lockscreen clock, date, and owner info color modded. But i can't find the post again to ask about it. Anyway, I'm trying to get the lockscreen colors changed. Got everything but the date and owner info. I have the colors updated in the in framework-res\res\values\colors.xml: Code: <color name="keyguard_text_color_decline">#ff33b5e5</color> <color name="lockscreen_clock_background">#ff33b5e5</color> <color name="lockscreen_clock_foreground">#ff33b5e5</color> <color name="lockscreen_clock_am_pm">#ff33b5e5</color> <color name="lockscreen_owner_info">#ff33b5e5</color> <color name="facelock_spotlight_mask">#cc000000</color> But only the clock color has changed. I have not been able to find anything else related to this....yet. What am I missing/doing wrong/overlooking?
app colors preview
Howdy all. I'm modifying the new version of the Yahoo mail app to make it less purple. I've got almost all traces of Teletubby puke out of the apk, but I am having issue with the colors.xml. The color name strings don't exactly tell me what color goes to to which elements in the app. Such names are: <color name="action_bar_top_gradient">#ffffff</color> <color name="action_bar_bottom_gradient">#ebe8ed</color> <color name="action_bar_split_top_gradient">#f5f2f7</color> <color name="action_bar_split_bottom_gradient">#e3e1e5</color> <color name="action_bar_edge_divider_line">#5533528f</color> <color name="action_bar_extra_divider_line">#ffffff</color> Colors.xml uses like 50 shades of purple. Saint's ColorEdit makes it easy to edit the color, I just need to figure out which color name goes to which element. Is there a preview emulator which I can run the apk with so I can see my color changes without having to recompile the apk and installing it on my phone everytime?
