[app] Red themed Market

I have the same question. I think the answer is an XML file, but I can't seem to find the right one.
I pulled out the Vending.apk from an older gappps, dated 11/10 I believe. You can download it through ClockworkMod. I pushed the older Vending in and ran the app just a bit, maybe flipped through a couple screens.
Then reboot into recovery, wiped caches, and flashed my zip. I only had this happen to myself once (I'm sure it was self inflicted with all the stuff I work on) but others have had success with it as well.
No problem
The header is not a drawable. It's all part of their Velvet UI, which is all in smali. The colors are hex codes in colors.xml so you won't see them untill you decompile. But to get the complete story, you should go to com/android/vending/velvet. In ArcPaintingUtils.smali, ArcView.smali, SlimArcView.smali, and SlimArcViewWithTabs.smali. (I think that's most of them) will be where they call out the id's that they are using. You can take that id and find what color it is in public.xml Then you can reference the id's back to public.xml to find out what it's actual name is.
It would be really nice if someone could make an app like this ,red or even blue, for the evo. I really wanted the red one but it just wont install and work on my evo.
I think this Is more for builds ported to other phones. It should work fine if you have root access on your phone to copy the files over to your system/app folder. Just remember that changing system files can have harmful effects to your system.

Pendo Thanks for your blue market apk. It installed easily on my evo. All I had to do is put the apk on my sd card, reboot into recovery and install. easy as pie which tells me there is something WRONG with the red market. It should install as easy as Pendo's does.
please help
Does anyone know what theme was being used in the screen shot of the market in this post. I would love to have the status bar and icons and colors.

Here is a red themed Android Market 2.2.11. It removes the green colors on the icons and the app. Thanks to @santiemanuel for finding the files needed to change the green top header of the app.
Please do a nandroid backup before flashing this update.zip. Boot into clockwork recovery and select zip from sd card. Let run and reboot.
To increase the chances of this working, go into settings>applications>all and find the market. Select uninstall or uninstall updates. Due to a change in the apk when Google went to to the new Market, some permissions can become corrupted and cause FCs. If you uninstall updates or start from a fresh ROM it should work.
I am not responsible for any problems you might come across after installing this mod.Please only try this if you are comfortable with this type of hacking.
Download 2.2.11 HERE

Any chance we'll see a cyanogen blue theme for the market in the not so distant future?1Nice to see someone else get rid of that green, lol. I did for 2.2.6 several weeks ago and now have 2.2.7 in blue. It's strange though that it's hit or miss on the install. Only thing that I've had pretty much 100% success with is updating from an older Vending.apk, *prior* to the makeover. But everybody that's tried that method has gotten it to take.
Not exactly cyan, but it's blue:
