Root [Boost Mobile] I'm begging here...

So I am about to drop this rom. But I won't do it until I can get the black on black background ongoing download text color fixed to white. I know Bobo knows how to fix it, and I PM'd him, but who knows how long it may take to get a response (he may be busy). I have searched high and low for a solution, but none that I can find on here or xda fit the warp, I figured out quite a lot of crazy stuff, but this little $H!t is driving me batty.

I'm pretty good about looking for my own solutions, but I have hit a wall. If anybody knows how to fix this, I would be super ecstatic, and we would all have a pretty nice rom...

Here are some sneek peeks:

Thanks for anybody who can help in advance.

"Nice" is an understatement, I've got to try this rom out the minute its released! :D
 
Yeah.. merc said he has never made a Rom that had a black background and so he has never had to deal with the issue. I have tried switching the service jar and nothing. I'm missing something else. There is nothing pertinent in terms of xml that I can find either.
 
I'd like to help but i dont have the knowledge i'm an expert on "flashing roms" but thats as
far i can go.
 
Edit the xml in DownloadProvider.apk

Man I'm dense. This was the first place I looked too. I have looked through it pretty thoroughly at every xml in there (including styles- drawable- layout xmls and so on). I'll have another go and see if I missed something. I figured it would be in here too, but then looked at bobos noobed update of your rom and saw there was no new download provider apk, so I assumed it was elsewhere considering he had fixed it. thanks for the clue.
 
Thanks @Bloodawn. Got it fixed.

Next order of things: Get this thing wrapped up- a couple of ringtones, fix a small theme issue (changing the name of the rom so status needs to reflect this), stamp the buildprop package this rom up and drop it.

If anybody is good with boot animations please PM me. It doesn't have to be crazy, just a simple title with a moving glare. I have a font I bought for this purpose.
 
I2f can probably help he has his own for Warped Sandwich

Unfortunately, I can't really help too much with it because of my crazy work schedule. I just followed a bunch of tutorials online, particularly this one.

Feel free to take apart my boot screen zip to see how I did things. Random: I noticed while making my boot screen that a lot of boot screens on UOT kitchen were either coded wrong or the image were sort of corrupt*. O_O

I used gimp to photoshop the stuff.

I feel really bad that I can't do anything more than that. :(

*Sorry, I phrased that wrong.

Thats good to know about the UOT boot screens, I was about to install one from there :o and you shouldn't feel bad, you've done more than enough for the Warp community :D

Hehe. Thanks!

Oh, if a boot screen doesn't work, I THINK it'll just show a black screen for a long time. If you're trying to make your own boot screen and a flashing white screen appears in between the frames of your boot screen animation, chances are you have a corrupt image in your file. O_O*

Usually it slows down and just stops playing after a while, I tried installing an AOKP boot animation and it soft-bricked my phone. Had to go to an old nandroid. Never found out what went wrong :(

It sounds like that's an issue with the desc file. Hm. I never encountered that problem before.
