notification ui color change - ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods

Is there a way to change the color of the notification ui?
I open the "stock android" app today and it changed the color of my notification ui from Grey to blue without messing around with it.
Is there a way to change the color back to the original in the settings somewhere (I've been searching for some hours now, changed theme and all, uninstalled and reinstalled nova and changed nothing) without installing an app for the notification ui?
I have nova launcher installed FYI.

@EmbleerFrith
I think you mean the quick settings background. It changes according to the background you set on your launcher in theory. If you open MiFavor launcher without making it default, then change the background on it, THEN hit the home button to get to the stock Android launcher, it should fix itself. I did that before, and it seems to work
Honestly I'd love to change the whole quick settings UI altogether, but I have no idea how to mod systemUI

I have noticed that it only changes if I change the theme of the phone and only then

Yes There is
Yes there is a way. You have to decompile SystemUI_ZTE.apk and do some smali code color changes. I have mine set to one color all the time.

I think it changes according to the wallpaper color set in default launcher.

can you make a guide or something? Maybe theme the B09's (or B35's) systemUI and share it somewhere? This would be a nice addition to @raystef66's ROMs, as an add-on

Settings.apk/res/drawable-hdpi
you sir are awsome, thank you.
Something a little close to what the first post was talking about. In the settings.apk I have one that was themed and what to use a few of the pngs in other settings.apk sinse I reflashed with a new rom. I've already push a few back that I changed. The png i what to use is a 4G stat data connected, but the color needs be changed to cyanogen and a little transparent for CM6. What program besides PS4 can I use to do it
Thanks
I know you can use photoshop. Those are greyscale.go to image>mode>rgb, then you can make color. For transparent, use eraser too to delete the background. (Its how I did my stuff)

[Q] Change Font color in ROM?

Hello all,
I'm trying to build a ROM which has a dark theme but the problem is that you of course can't read black text on a dark grey background, in which files can you change the font colors, is it in the framework-res.apk XML's or somewhere else?
Thanks in advance.

While you can change the fonts (you will need to edit around 60 xmls in the framework, settings, systemui and any device framework file like com.HTC.resources.apk) you will still run into black on black with 3rd party apps and there is nothing you can do about it short of editing every apk.

Ok, thanks, then maybe it's better to put work in a light theme instead of the impossible font color changing job
sounds so hard

[Q] How to change icons in app drawer?

Seems this has been asked before and no one has answered. Yes icons on the home screen/dock can be changed easy. But the icons in the dock are not so easy. When I download a custom theme for cm7 like stygian black fade, it changes about half of the icons (like handcent), so I know it can be done. I'm using ADW EX and a cm7 kang. I cant find any good guilds on how to make a theme similar to stygians black fade. Editing the original program .apk is not an option as many don't allow it. Creating a folder is also not an option, its just avoiding the issue which can be fixed.

[Q] Q: Trying to use Black Icons to set on icons - but cant see.

Good Day
I have a set of Black icons that I would like to use to set on my Themer icons - but when I go to Edit an icon and try to pick one of the black icons - I can't see the icon because the background of the CHOOSE ICON window is black.
I haven't seen a place where I can change that background color - Is there a way to accomplish this?
Thanks

Hi!
Thanks for pointing this out! An idea would be to change your wallpaper to a much lighter image, then revert it back to the original (found in the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/Themer/prefs/ folder). I've let the developers know so hopefully something can be done soon.

Thanks for reply, i tried setting it to almost fully white...
it does help a little - but its still very difficult to make out.

Customizing quick settings color in Notification Panel

I recently installed Android N-ify from the xposed modules and got my notification panel to look decent by adjusting colors with G4 tweaksbox, however the idle quick settings are the same color as the background. Does anyone know of another way to edit quick setting icon colors? Is there a root file I can edit easily?

You can install the hybrid theme or the flyme theme - you can find them in the theme-section of this forum...

I'm on H830 and those themes aren't compatible yet - besides, i only want to change the quick settings icon colors (when not selected they are black and invisible, they are white when selected as of right now)
the point being i will be able to use the Android N style notification panel. I like the way the notifications span the whole screen.
