White notification bar for sense ROM? - Desire Themes and Apps

Is there a theme that is like the minamal black but in white? I use Leedroid ROM and I cant seem to locate one at all.
Anyone have any ideas?

I think the white bar would be the easy bit, changing the font colour for clock and notifications could be the hard be as .xml files in the framework would have to be edited. That is beyond the scope of what I could do. There might be someone here who knows where they are kept.

Unfortunately i too can't help you in this case, but i have something to think of for you if you have an AMOLED display...
AMOLED uses nearly no energy for black parts of the screen which is superior to LCD displays. But when showing white pixels, i heard AMOLED uses 3 x more energy compared to LCD.
So, as a sideeffect, the dark sense gui is perfect for energy saving too! ...i also use a dark background!

Thanks for that info
I do have an amold screen. I will revert back to black.

Inverse screen colours to save battery

I was wondering, on the mac if you press command+ option+ control+ F8 it inverses the screen colours.
Ie. If the screen back ground on browser is white, it will become black and the fonts become white. I use it all the time to read in the night and avoid screen glare.
But if someone could do something like this for our note, we might beable to reduce the battery consumption while browsing etc for example.
It would really use the oled properties too save battery.
Just a thought.
Ps. I use tapatalk with the black back ground, and it's easier on the eyes.
It's there such an app that can do this for any screen on our note?

I second that. At night it would be great to be able to invert the colors on the browser.

By the way, strange coincidence, I had been thinking about the same thing since morning...

There are some blackout themes for android. one in particular is black android 2.5. i used it on my gs2 and with nitr8's insanity mod i was getting 4 days batt life.
if you make sure and use as little of the display as described in the thread that neverthemore posted, your display will use very little power. thin fonts, black backgrounds where ever possible. i heard somewhere that red uses the least amount of power, but im sure that topic is very open for discussion.
either way, using a single solid color over white is a good idea since white needs all the pixels on, whereas red would only use red pixels. green uses green etc etc but since the samoled has the pen tile i believe that means 2 green sub pixels? right? somebody please correct me if i am wrong.
I'd really like something like this, also! Just a few hours ago I started a thread in the XDA forums main forum for forum related issues (can we say forum a few more times?) asking for a dark theme for us AMOLED users.
ChadTheWocko has a great work around for using opera mobile, but once you change it it's difficult to change back. I'd love a simple toggle widget for reversing colors.
Maybe chainfire 3d can do this if CF gives it some more of that love has

bLACK COLOUR bANDING ON LCKSCREEN

Did anyone else noticed this prob of banding only in black colour and only on lockscreen.
This issue is being covered extensively on different threads already. You might want to use the search function bro.

Bro people here have been taking about banding on whole UI. but i am getting it only on lockscreen and only in black colour. same wallpaper when applied to homescreen gives deep black.
and banding in terms the place where i have black colour is shows as grey and black colour lines.
i think it's stemming from the same issue even if it only manifests on your lockscreen.
Are u using Go locker?

Yes, I get this.
It depends which image browser I use to set the lock screen, I think. I am sure this is the same issue as reported elsewhere. It is to do with rendering a 24 bit image as 16 bit.
It also goes away when I use Screen Adjuster to set the contrast to -40.

Any way to get "true" blacks in 4.2?

I thought my N4 had horrible blacks until I realized that Android was using dark grays instead of blacks throughout the menu system. It makes the screen really hazy.
Not a fan.
Is there any way to correct this short of using a custom launcher?

Use a app that changes the colors. Of course this won't fix it either, it's just the way IPS screen is, AMOLED screens produce the best blacks.
Alternatively, you can download a inverted ROM that has a black background instead of dark gray / bluish.

Screen color calibration

Hey guys,
I just got the nexus 7 for Christmas and so far it's a super awesome device. The only thing I don't like is the screen. If I compare it to the LCD of my Sensation the colors seem plain and washed. Is there any way to recalibrate the display or something of that kind?
Thank you in advance.

I recommend u to use the app "Filter Your Screen". With changing alpha, blue and red, u can have better coloring.
Or if your device is rooted, to disable PRISM is easier and perfect way to improve coloring. pls refer to the folloing thread.

how i can get the white backround in Phone, Settings and Messaging app?

yes like the title says...i saw it on galaxy s 4 and in videos from note 3 reviews...but how to get this ?
You can go in to Settings -> Accessibility and invert the colors, but maybe thats not what your looking for
As for white background in SMS app, i saw that there is an option within the SMS program to change to various backgrounds(there are some bright ones) when reading an SMS, but it doesn't seem to work for the background on the main window.
I'm also interested in a white theme. Developer of the theme called "Domination" in "Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps" section said he might make a white theme. Might be something worth waiting for.
On most phones, the White theme is bound to the White phone.... Is that not the case anymore?
Though I can imagine Samsung left out the white theme because white pixels eat 200% more battery life than black ones on an AMOLED screen.

Yeah its still the case, I'm guessing he has a black note 3. I used to have the white theme on my white Note but I installed Domination Dark for that exact reason, battery life definitely improved
