Thanks go to Interdpth, Shabbypenguin, hroark13, 96blkgsr and he_stheone64
 
So you edited all three of these xml files?

status_bar.xml ,
status_bar_expanded.xml ,
status_bar_latest_event_content.xml

I follow the guide but I only want to change the clock and it says it's going to change them all.

Any suggestions?

When you finish it theres gonna be a framework-new.zip, Open that up and take services.jar out. That is the file that has the clock color, The rest of the zip you can just delete.

I've tried yours & blue's work and I like them both ! Great work and a BIG Thank you ! :D

Ditto! Blood and Blue are both doing some impressive work. I used Blue's batch file instead of the Shabbymod batch and copied Bloods stuff into it. That way I did not mess with any ROM apps. I also skipped the Boot Animation as I like the one I have.

I do like the white on black look of the notification screen. Very easy to read.

The battery % is also a little easier for me to see

Good stuff!

Edit:

Not sure if this is related, probably not. something odd happened after trying out the two themes from Blood and Blue. I have not really done anything else to the phone that i blame it on.:

I somehow lost the sync with my gmail account and all my contacts. It was easy to fix. I added the gmail account back and it synced in my contacts. Maybe i deleted it by mistake, but it was weird.

I downloaded the updated version of ShabbyMod .09 and modified it . Worked perfect ! :D

trying to figure out where the boot animation is.... flashed it last night and it used the shabbymod boot animation

Open up the theme on your computer and copy bootanimation,zip from the media folder to your sdcard then use root explorer to move it to system/media, You can either overwrite the old boot animation or just rename it.
