Don't quote me on this, but I believe there's just a numerical value to change in the XML file. I haven't looked myself, but it shouldn't be too hard to find. Open it up in Notepad and take a look around.



...or I could be very wrong if so, sorry

this is the contents of progress_horizontal.xml

If you try to open the xml file from the rom it may not come up.
Grab the one from source and it will display something like this:

Once you have made your adjustments then rebuild the rom from source and it should work just fine.

You can use this online tool (amongst the dozens of others) to find your appropriate color.
