Hi, First of all i know i shouldn't post question here,anyways i checked out Q/A section and its like a noob trash.So if i write it there i don't think i can get an answer.
So let me tell you what i want to do..
Let's look that code snip
--------------------
<style name="TextAppearance.Holo.Widget.Switch" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.Holo.Small">
<item name="android:textColor">#00ffffff</item>
</style>
---------------
you know red text is like getting that style from framework-res.apk and blue one is overwriting to red one's specific parts.
So,you didn't lose main stuff from red part...
That's okay for framework-res styling...
but how about working on another app packages' styles
The code snip below is from original Settings app's styles.xml
-----------------
<style name="Theme.Settings" parent="@*android:style/Theme.Holo">
<item name="android:actionBarStyle">@*android:style/Widget.Holo.ActionBar.Solid</item>
<item name="apnPreferenceStyle">@style/ApnPreference</item>
<item name="ic_menu_add">@drawable/ic_menu_add_dark</item>
<item name="ic_menu_moreoverflow">@*android:drawable/finger_print_arrow_019</item>
<item name="ic_wps">@drawable/ic_wps_dark</item>
<item name="wifi_signal">@drawable/wifi_signal_dark</item>
</style>
------------
The code below is my code which i used on cm11 theme
-------------
<style name="Theme.Settings" parent="@*android:style/Theme.Holo">
<item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item>
</style>
------------
if i use that changed code it correctly changes things on Settings app..
But when i enter into Wifi settings app crashes because of these things
<item name="apnPreferenceStyle">@style/ApnPreference</item>
<item name="ic_menu_add">@drawable/ic_menu_add_dark</item>
<item name="ic_menu_moreoverflow">@*android:drawable/finger_print_arrow_019</item>
<item name="ic_wps">@drawable/ic_wps_dark</item>
<item name="wifi_signal">@drawable/wifi_signal_dark</item>
everything else in app works good.
So theme's wifi part will be broken if i use like above.
Let me tell you the another way,
hmm @*android:style/Theme.Holo comes from framework-res so i can easily create overlay for it but if i do that for Theme.Holo , it will change the Settings app correctly but it also will broke all other Theme.Holo used apps
I don't want both of these things.
How about overlaying settings's Theme.Settings
like that
So app won't crash and it will be themed only the settings app
-------------
<style name="Theme.Settings" parent="THEMES SETTINGS STYLE RESOURCE FROM SETTINGS APP">
<item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item>
</style>
------------
I couldn't find something like this.
What am i supposed to do??

I know it sounds tedious, but I just want the menus black. To be more specific, the menus that popup if you were to hit the menu button while looking at the homescreen. It was just improve my blackfroyo theme experience. Ha, if anyone knows how to, or how I could use one of the existing themes to apply only this mod, I'd appreciate it. Obviously I'd want the text altered too so it wasn't black on black.
I have that working, however I am having trouble loacting the file to change the text from black to white
The graphics part is easy. You can just copy over the appropriate files from gingerbread drawable-hdpi to your framework file.
The test and item separator references need to be changed in framework-res.apk, /res/values/styles.xml
At work right now and can't tell you exactly, but you have to change the text for both the popup and the extended menus.
If you find the locations in styles/xml that refer to the text style they say something like PrimaryTextColorInverse or similar. just remove the inverse. This needs to be done in two places for both the popup and the extended menus.
The separators need to be changed from divider_horizontal_dark and divider_vertical dark. these will be in the same places as the text.
Once recompiled the changes will be in the resources file. make sure all of your xml files and the resource file is compiled together.
Updated with more specifics:
when you decompile framework-res there is a folder /res/values that contains a bunch of xml files. You will need to edit styles.xml.
Below changes the menu item text color to light:
Code:
<style name="TextAppearance.Widget.IconMenu.Item" parent="@style/TextAppearance.Small">
<item name="textColor">?[COLOR="red"]textColorPrimary[/COLOR]</item>
Below changes the dividers to light:
Code:
<style name="Theme.IconMenu" parent="@style/Theme">
<item name="windowAnimationStyle">@style/Animation.OptionsPanel</item>
<item name="background">@null</item>
<item name="itemTextAppearance">@style/TextAppearance.Widget.IconMenu.Item</item>
<item name="horizontalDivider">@drawable/[COLOR="red"]divider_horizontal_dark[/COLOR]</item>
<item name="verticalDivider">@drawable/[COLOR="Red"]divider_vertical_dark[/COLOR]</item>
<item name="itemBackground">@drawable/menu_selector</item>
<item name="itemIconDisabledAlpha">?disabledAlpha</item>
<item name="moreIcon">@drawable/ic_menu_more</item>
Below Changes the expanded menu text appearance:
Code:
<style name="Theme.ExpandedMenu" parent="@style/Theme">
<item name="listViewStyle">@style/Widget.ListView.Menu</item>
<item name="windowAnimationStyle">@style/Animation.OptionsPanel</item>
<item name="background">@null</item>
<item name="itemTextAppearance">?[COLOR="red"]textAppearanceLarge[/COLOR]</item>

good job)
I can just edit the pngs and the .9.pngs and everything goes fine. I can install and everything works perfectly except the font is too dark on the widget so you cant see it. I am wanting to change the font on the venues widget to white not black. If you look at the styles.xml there are 3 instances that are there and they are as follows:
HTML:
<style name="TextViewStyleVenueActivityTodoHere">
<item name="android:textSize">14.0dip</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">bold</item>
<item name="android:textColor">@color/black_end</item>
</style>
<style name="TextViewStyleAddTipTodoActivityBold">
<item name="android:textSize">16.0dip</item>
<item name="android:textStyle">bold</item>
<item name="android:textColor">@color/black_end</item>
</style>
<style name="TextViewStyleAddTipTodoActivityNormal">
<item name="android:textSize">14.0dip</item>
<item name="android:textColor">@color/black_end</item>
</style>
I am changing black_end to white. that is all I am changing. Anyone offer any assistance with this? Attached in the zip is the original apk and the pngs (yes I ran the 9patch on the .9.pngs) that I have edited and the styles.xml file is in res/values
The app compiles, signs, and installs fine, but will FC as soon as I try to open it. I also attached the adb log from trying to open the app if anyone can decipher that. lol
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
No one has an idea?

You have to decompile the apk and then rewrite the code for it to match colors. You will not be able to more then a color change.
