Hex code for ICS blue?

Sak01

Does anyone know the Hex code for the shade of blue used all over ICS?

ie. that of the notification bar icons and for the dialpad numbers here:

If someone has Photoshop they can import the image into it and point on the blue with the colour sample icon tool. That should give you the Hex code.
 
it is 33B5E5

i decompiled the ics music app and read the hex code.
you were both getting different results because screen shot apps reduce the image quality causing slight pixelation and variation in color.
hope this helps!
...but be aware that some themes might not have it exactly right either; in this case using ps or something to find it should be just fine to match it up.

cheers!

Thanks for the speedy help all.

What about the hex code for the clock, battery and signal bars in the notification area and the second and third horizontal lines near the top? They look like a darker shade.
 
The problem I have "decoding" these colors is that when I zoom in I get about 10 different colors for one thing:

Now I may be doing this wrong... Lol

Nope - not wrong. I'm having the same issue. I was hoping sslayer would chime back in with the actual color code.
 
...chiming in! haha

i agree those look a little darker than the official apps(music etc...)
the problem with the signal bars and all that is they are just images. I changed the screen shot to a gif and kept reducing the colors from 256 down until it was solid zoomed in at 1000% and i got Hex={29,8E,B5} for the signal bars on the images above.

the horizontal line across the top, right under phone, contacts etc... should be the same as the slightly thicker indicator part. i see they are different in your ss, but they're the same on "official" apps. the indicator and the numbers on the dialer in your ss above are Hex={47,DD,FE}, and the horizontal bar is Hex={2A,6A,86}.

so...
official xml: 33B5E5
above ss signal & wifi: 298EB5
above ss indicator & dialer #s: 47DDFE
above ss horizontal bar: 2A6A86

cheers!

Nice forensic work!

Unfortunately, it's just a screenshot from the techradar review of the Nexus. There doesn't exist an ICS rom yet, afaik, or I could have just given you the rom file to nose through.
