I have done some google searching and haven't found anything. I love having a black notification panel, but am seriously considering making it white if I can't fix this. It happens with anything "ongoing" (music, downloads, uploads) does anyone know how to fix this?

Ps running Harmonia 2.08

Looks like a theme issue
Only themes can change the notification's text color and font.

just ya know...tapatalkin' from my OpV
 
some users here might show you how to edit your theme. or maybe you can try UOT. I havent tried the cm7 theme uploader / editor option but you can have a try. Try to go for a color that is both visible on black and white .. like the ICS cyan color
 
I had the same exact issue. I'm on BACKside but I ran the same theme on Harmonia too.
If you go and find the xda link where the theme came from, there's a fix for that on there. I'll look for it in a bit and edit it in here.

EDIT: Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1310925

But to apply the fix you have to edit the xml into the framework-res.apk of your ROM. I attempted to do it and screwed it over, lol.
anthonycr actually ended up doing it for me, and now everything works flawlessly.
Thanks again, dude!

Thank you guys. I'll give the link a try. I used uot to make the theme, and made notification text white, and it is for text messages and anything else thats just a "notification" but anything "ongoing" is blackblack
