Strangely, timepicker.xml is from framework-res, and the ids contained in the layout xml are also contained in framework-res...

Since other applications invoke the timepicker popup dialog, it must pull these ids from whichever application invokes the dialog.

What I am trying to do is change the text color for the id "amPm." Unfortunately, it is specified directly in the layout xml.

Any ideas about how to change text colors - with theme chooser - when they are specified in this manner?

Anything obvious in values/colors? What you mean it's specified in layout? In the theme chooser? If so post the line that contains it.

I checked colors.xml first, no.

What i mean by specified in the layout xml is that the color used for the am/pm text is ONLY specified in timpicker.xml (which is in the layout folder within framework-res). timepicker.xml references a global color for the am/pm text, thus there are only two ways I know of to change the color used for am/pm text in the timepicker dialog:

1. edit the global color reference (this is undesirable because it will affect every other place this color is used).
2. edit the reference in timepicker.xml (this is preferred, but I can't figure out how to get this working with theme chooser themes).

Here is the line in timepicker.xml (note: I changed the color reference to "white" it used to be something like primary_lite_.....):

<Button android:textColor="@android:color/white" android:id="@id/amPm" android:paddingLeft="20.0dip" android:paddingRight="20.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginLeft="5.0dip" android:layout_marginTop="43.0dip" style="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />

Got it. Add a custom hex color (white is ffffffff) into theme chooser colors.xml. Then where it has the color reference replace it with "@color/custom" which localizes it into your apk

I've installed the AOSP ICS status bar on a Sense 3.6 ROM. It looks good, and almost completely works.

My issue is with the 4g icons. I took a look at the SystemUI.apk and the 4g icons are in there. My question is how do I get the SystemUI to make the correct call to display these icons?

I know the HTC SystemUI makes the correct calls to these images, so would taking a look at an HTC one help?

From what I can tell about ICS AOSP status bars, it doesn't display signal specifically for 4G, but rather it only has the blue (active) and grey (inactive) 4g icon where the 3g icon used to be.

I got that part. What I am having issues with is that when I include timepicker.xml in the theme, all apps that use the time picker force close when I attempt to set a time or date. I think the ids are not mapping correctly, but I'm not sure how to get it working.

New question:

Where can I find the color for the secondary text on the power menu (e.g. Sound is On, Airplane mode is Off, etc)?
I have searched and searched, but can't find the reference.

I need to make the dark gray text lighter:

could you post the FC log? as for the second thing I have no idea. But maybe you can find the strings end delete them? The second line is dumb anyway since the icons change when you change from the menu.
