Quick question: Resource related. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Before I hurt my self trying to get something to work that possibly can't be done... lol.
If you have a cm12 theme applied ,is it all possible to override the android framework colors? I have had no trouble overriding a color that was themed with the theme chooser engine with normal apps like Youtube, but have had no such luck when it comes to the android framework colors. The only colors I am concerned about are the accent and ripple colors.
A couple of things I've noticed:
The colors are replaced in the advance reboot dialog menu that normally has not be able to be touched with the theme chooser engine in cm12 when a theme is applied.
Once I disable the theme, the other colors are replaced just fine.
Is there a workaround for this, or am I stuck with what I got? I spent all night trying to find a similar case, but had no luck :crying:

[Q] Holo Light UI

So i am currently theming my phone into a Light version of Holo. However I have no idea what to edit in the framework-res.apk considering that there are pre-made holo dark and light xml's and im afraid i would mess up with other apps using them. My question is what xml would i need to modify to set the system to use the Light theme? I have successfully set the Settings application to Holo Light by editing its manifest file. How can i apply light theme to popup menus, power options, volume, dialog boxes and etc? Thank you Im currently running ICS. :laugh:

Changing colors of certain parts of a Downloaded Theme

I have been using a Custom Rom for the Droid Razr called Avatar for some time now. Within the Rom they have included the application Theme Chooser. Theme Chooser allows the user to pick and download various themes to install within interchanging them by wallpaper, boot animation, resources, ringtones, etc.
I downloaded a theme because I really enjoyed how the icons looked. The problem is the transparent background of many icons and fonts are a Salmon looking Pink Color that I wish I could change. I could change this with the Theme Chooser App but it also changes to the Icons.
Is there a way I could just change the color?
Thanks for any help

[Q] Removing Translucent Black Shade on Locksreen Background

Hey I'm running CM10.1 on my HTC One x. I was wondering how to remove the black shade ontop of the lockscreen background and just have your background clear and not darkened. I've been looking around framework-res and trying to edit stuff but had no luck, I have no experience in coding, just flashing custom roms and decompiling apks.
In CM7 there is an option to set an image as background for the lockscreen, check in the CM Settings, maybe you can do it.
Putting a custom image for your lockscreen doesn't remove the translucent black shade unfortunately.
Excuse me for reposting but I'm still wondering if anyone can help me with this, it seems like a pretty simple mod.

EMUI 10 theme notification BG color doesn't change....

Hi everyone.. I'm at a loss and don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Let's start saying I'm a super noob with this so all I do is just by trial and error.
Anyway, I have a theme I made with some custom image from my phone. I really like it, but no matter what I try, the color behind the notifications (not the quick menu, that one is fine with the shade of blue I picked) always remains white and so does the main settings background. (the settings background in the dialer app instead, for instance, changes fine, with the same file...??)
I don't understand what or where this white is located cause I've pretty much tried to replace everything white that isn't font or button colors... Yet no luck. Maybe it's hidden somewhere I can't see it?
Basically in the latest theme manager, I go to Home screen, settings, and under background I put a .9.png file. But this image is never reflected in the theme when I apply it. I don't know if this is what affects the notification color either, but I have no other clue what could be since it's the only 2 things that remain white in the theme!
I know it's possible to definitely change notification BG color in emui 10 themes because I have downloaded some who have green or red/blue notifications and those changed fine.... So I copied them from phone to pc and selected import in the theme studio cause I wanted to check where the difference was... But when I import them they revert to default. Maybe they're protected (rightfully so!) or something?
If anyone who makes themes could kindly help or tell me where the exact setting for the notification colors is, it would be a great help, or if anyone knows why that image doesn't get applied to the theme!
Thanks!

Android 13 update turned dark mode to sepia in notifications/Gapps.

This morning I updated to Android 13. I've had no problem whatsoever besides that the dark notifications color palette turned from bluish to sepia.
This affects notifications, google apps and basically every dark mode app.
I have a custom theme, OXYGEN 11 from WSTEAMS in the google playstore. I changed the theme to the default and the color palette turned to blue again.
I know this is then a custom theme related issue, but there being so few themes available for LG. I wish to know if there's a simple way to tweak this setting in this custom theme. Instead of keeping to the default theme that I don't really like much.
Any ideas would be appreciated
EDIT: I've found the issue. Notifications take the color accent from the background, red stuff in the background gets sepia tones for dark mode.
