I used to use Quickboot, but it was debated as to wether it was safe to use with nojournal ROMs. So is this supposed to be safe to use now?
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Good question, I almost never have to reboot. That's the reason I find the reboot menu option of little or no use.

Going to do some testing tomorrow with QuickBoot and see what happens to a rom with nojoural after using it's reboot option.
[Epic 4G Themes] pjjohn73:
I remember when the No-journal started that people said not to use QuickBoot and tried to blame corruption on it. But some people, including me used it and did not have problems. To be on the safe side I quite using it though. I enjoyed it for going into CWM quickly. But then if my memory serves me and don't quote me on this... I believe it was Randy_T (Bonsai) said that it should be safe. This was awhile back that I recall reading that. So I guess it is just one of them things you have to try and see. LOL. But I have seen some post lately that seem as if people are using it again.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Thanks pjjohn for your feedback, in my opinion we should stop using no jouraling. The phone is fast already, why risk data corruption. I for one will go back to the ACS rom with jouraling turned on when/if released.
[Epic 4G Themes] pjjohn73:
I have been thinking about that too. Not sure if the extra writes to the phone with journal on is a big deal. Wont have my phone for only a few years anyhow. On the other hand I don't have data corruption issues with it off.

FYI, if you want to enable journaling, just backup in CWM, wipe, then restore your backup. That should turn it back on.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
While testing a theme I have had to pull the battery. And few times I got the data corruption and had to flash the rom again. I'm not always thinking about if I have a backup! LOL

New Blue Midnight theme uploading. Take a look at the pictures and see if you like the changes.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Update theme ready in 1st post.
[Epic 4G Themes] pjjohn73:
.

Cool, will check out as soon as possible.

Update, looks good. Like the dialer better.

Is the Blue Midnight label in the drop down new? I don't remember it being there.
[Epic 4G Themes] sandman512:
I really like this theme, my only dilemma is that the sizing seems to be smaller then stock(tougher to see). Any advice? THANKS!
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Is the label new, yes. I like it better than having Sprint! I changed the dialer because somei

one said they did not like it before.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
I don't think they are smaller. If they are it's only 2-3 pixels. I don't think I have been on stock for more than a few days back when the phone was 1st released. Hang in there help is on the way. Making new icons without the border background and they will fill the 38x38 space.
[Epic 4G Themes] sandman512:
Thanks for the support! BTW, what do you mean help is on the way? THANKS!
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Just being funny, that's all.:rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Themes] sandman512:
Gotcha:rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Themes] pjjohn73:
Yes, that was me. I said the blue streaks were distracting. Thanks for the update. Looks awesome!

Fast question, will the blue task bar addon be updated? I noticed, if used now it removes the new blue menu. (Changes it back to grey). I like the current task bar icons, but really liked the blue ones also.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Sorry, my mind didn't even go there. Didn't think about the other taskbar that I have posted. Will try to get them updated in the next few days. Thanks for give me the reminder.
[Epic 4G Themes] pjjohn73:
No problem. I like the default too.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Update Theme inverted menu icons and flyin animation.

Added Blue Launcher Pro 8.4.1.
[Epic 4G Themes] pjjohn73:
Thanks.. glad to see you back on
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Since I work weekends, not always easy for me to work on the themes. Got a break today and updated the themes to correct several small problems. Let me know what apps are not working with the dark menus.

I understand, life is busy
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Thanks, will check it out.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Fixed submenu's show white background with white letters. Also updated the other 2 framework-res.apk for the same reason. Sorry about the back to back updates. Never notice this until a member posted a comment in the Black Alien theme. Thanks for your support and understanding.

Edit: It was in this thread that the comment was made, sorry about that. Thanks to the member who noticed the submenu's and posted a comment.
[Epic 4G Themes] kenscivic:
one problem I have noticed is when the screen is sideways the keypad wont work for the phone
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
I don't see the problem as you can see in the picture. I just flashed back to the blue theme to check this out. If you mean that Swype doesn't work in landscape mode, that is correct. You have to use the Epic's physical kb.
[Epic 4G Themes] djg_1982:
Thank you. Your themes are awesome. Love the red one also.

The only thing I have noticed is the blue swype is missing the decimal when you change it to number symbols.

Very nice work
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Will check it out, thanks.
[Epic 4G Themes] sandman512:
Can someone do me a favor? Can you compare the sizing(fonts) text etc. to the orginal size? When I say compare, if you recall what you original sizing was. For example, I really like this theme, but the first time I tried it, the sizes of things(text, fonts) seemed smaller. It made it difficult to see. Thanks much!
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
No changes made to font, same font that comes with whatever rom you use.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
New Blue Midnight boot animation now available courtesy of gunnermike & jaekar99. Check in OP for download and preview image.

jstine671,

Have the Blue Framework and the Blue/Silver Framework been updated for compatibly with Version 1.6? Just curious.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Yes they have, all have the same compiled date.

[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
Hmmmm.....Maybe I'll be flashing this next. Those boot animations gotta be killer:D Where are the animations for the "Red Alien Theme"? Just when I thought things could'nt get any better. Dude U have some of the coolest themes around. Should I stay with the Red Alien or flash this? Damn U Timberwolf;)

love this theme but only 1 prob the loading bar on the internet app the 2 blues r 2 close color 2 each other hard 2 c the loading status

also the stock email app force closes after boot but i use improved email would it be safe if i uninstall it
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
I will take a look at the blue theme internet blue loading bar when I flash back to this theme. Working on the Red Angry Alien.

And yes it is safe to remove the email.apk. I don't get any FC's the app, will check on it when I flash again. Thanks for posting!
[Epic 4G Themes] greenmuggy:
Everything else works great now no fc uninstalled email.apk maby bc I'm runnin dk28 I have no clue tho lol but once again love the theme awsome work

Are you really running DK28 or just kidding?:eek:
[Epic 4G Themes] greenmuggy:
Yes totally dk28 no joke its the only thing that works for me I'm a viper rom addict & the 4.0.4 is the only 1 I like that don't have probs I'm waitin on the synergy 5.0 for ec05 right now its only for eb13 I don't know many good roms for newer builds plus what I'm really waitin on is the 3.5 tv-out fix that's the breaker

Link to the ACS rom, the best there is. Take the fully loaded and then remove what you don't want using SdxAppRemoval.apk.

I'm having hard getting my head wrapped around that this theme works on DK28 without problem.:confused:
[Epic 4G Themes] greenmuggy:
Thanx man, but it did have the fc on the stock email.apk delete that & use improved email & no probs at all. hell this theme even made my phone faster :-)

Does the acs rom support custom start up & shut dowm animations & sounds?

Sent from the coldest Epic 4g in town
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Yes, I have a custom boot animation in OP for Blue Midnight, check it out.

Wish I could say the theme was making you phone faster, but what you are seeing is a placebo effect.
[Epic 4G Themes] greenmuggy:
ya cuz it sure scored less on benchmark but it was sooooo smoother & faster ani's is what i was noticing

& im on acs frozen now seems fantastic so far although it didnt wanna install the first time around i just re-wiped 3x & flashed the rom again & it went through perfectly

LOL:D Take everything.....I'll just keep my dog (mans best friend u know;))
[Epic 4G Themes] skyward01:
I really like the dialer in this theme,so I wanted to add it to my setup. I tried pulling the dialtapactivity.apk and phone.apk and pushing it into the system folder using root explorer, but when I do this it FC the phone. Am I doing this wrong, is there another way? Thanks!
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
"I'll just keep my dog (mans best friend u know"

Yes I know, just read the bottom of my post. I have 14 f my best friend, get a hero's welcome everytime I come home. Even if I just walked outside for 15 mins. And no, all 14 do not live inside!:eek:
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
1st question are you rooted, if not this will only work on rooted CMW3.

The better way is to delete the framework folder and all other apk's in the app folder except dialer, phone and contacts. Then flash with CMW3
[Epic 4G Themes] skyward01:
Rooted, currently on midnight 5.2. Lately I've been pushing my favorite themed apps into my system folder to customize my phone, but the method you described sounds much simpler especially since I'm using many of your apps. Thanks for the tip, and the great themes you make.

Edit: that worked perfectly, thanks again.
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
That answered one of my questions too, with reguards to mixing elements of different themes. Thanks bro!
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
Almost gave a new meaning to "3 dog nite" :D

(no, not the band from the 70's. See, I'm old school too!)

>>Was feelin' a little "blue" today.......;)

I'm never alone when I'm in the dog house with the wife.:rolleyes: I have 3 great German Shepherd dogs that would defend me with their life. I have one female that would take your arm off and then come lick my face.

Feeling blue, then switch to Red Alien and get fired up.
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
LOL! No, when I said "I'm feelin' a little blue today" that meant it was time for a change of pace. I was on "Red Alien" for the past couple of days. Been running some benchmarks with Rodderik's kernel and the damn phone froze in the "tunnel" on Smartbench @ 1.4ghz......some things got corrupted, so I have to reflash. Wanted to check out ur blue theme since I have to redo everything anyways:D Seems like there are more "goodies" kickin' around this site that look better with a blue theme. Nice to have sooooooo many options! Everything that U conjure up looks great. Thanks again;)

[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Got that one also, let me peek inside and see what I can find. One of them is on the way soon.
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
A word of warning though.......I've read some people are having a hard time getting these modified keyboards to work, unless they're baked into the rom. I don't know if it's rom related DK28, EB13 or EC05. Or if it's just the problem of flashing in recovery. Some people are still unaware of edify scripts, EXT4 and cwm 3.0.0.6. :confused:
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Thanks for the warning, if cannot flash just the KB then will place in the theme.

BTW: I gave you a thanks for keeping my themes on the front. People will look at the 1st couple of pages and continue to download until it hits the 4 pages. But bring it back to the front and the downloads start rise again. I can see on the report from my server.
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
You bet man....ur more than welcome. I've always liked ur touch of class ever since windows mobile;)
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
If anyone is interested, here is a link for some different colored "WiFi Tether" apps that work very well with any of Timberwolf's themes.

Good warning, I tried to install after copy apk and lib to CWM3 script and install.

No good will not install, though maybe the file was not signed. And it was not so I sign the file and still will not install. I will continue to research the problem and see what I can find.

EditL Found the way to get it work, Now just need to add a theme.
[Epic 4G Themes] skyward01:
I just went back to this theme, i tried flashing the clock in clockwork but install failed? Is this a flashable zip, or is there another install method? Thx!
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
The clock you see in the pictures is for Beautiful Widgets. You can find it in the Market for < $2.00. Worth the price. Once you have BW install, open the zip and copy the folder to your SDcard \data\beautifulwidget\skins. Then you can select the clock in BW menu.
[Epic 4G Themes] skyward01:
Thanks, I have BW, will give it a try.
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
I can verify it works. Just switched to ur blue theme the other day, got all my apps reinstalled, oc'ed to 1.3ghz with Rodderick's kernel and everything looks sweeeeeeeeet:D I read a few post back that a fella did'nt care for the metal "grate" on the pull-down menu. Personally, I like it. It goes very well with your "Blue Ariel" clock skin! 2 thumbs up Timberwolf, fantastic job once again;)

P.S.>If ur still having problems with the GB keyboard, let me know and I'll extract the apk from my system files. I don't know what Rob did to it, if anything at all, to play nice with his rom. Once again, I'm on midNIGHT 5.2, EXT4 EC05 if that makes any difference.
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
Just had a thought, if the ACS rom your using is EB13, that could be the problem. I assume that EB13 and EC05 have slightly different structure. Don't know for sure......:confused:
[Epic 4G Themes] skyward01:
I put this file in the BW superclock skins folder, but when I try to select it I get an error message saying the file was corrupted and to redownload it. I've downloaded it on my phone and computer with no luck.

When I go in to BW to select different clock skins the Timberwolf clock shows up and looks normal just when I select it I get the error message??? Any ideas?

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
I think your problem is that ur putting it in the wrong folder. First of all, this isn't a Super Clock skin. Goto your "home settings", then scroll about 1/2 way down and select "clock skins". VIOLA!, if you put the skin in the right folder, you will see it listed;)

>>When you extract the zip file, just take the folder inside and place it on your storage card......data/beautifulwidgets/skins. Hope this helps;)

>>Make sure that you are using the folder and it's contents inside the zip file and not placing the zip file itself in the "skins" folder.
[Epic 4G Themes] skyward01:
This is what I did, I put the file that was inside the zip into the sdcard/data/beautifulwidgets/scskins folder. Inside the BW folder the subfolders are bskins, cache, skins, wskins, and scskins (I've tried putting the file in all the BW subfolders) . Then I goto BW / appearance/super clock skins / select Timberwolf clock and I get the error message?
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
Yes, but this isn't a superclock skin. The resoultion of supported skins is different. You have to go to "Beautiful Widgets" in your app drawer, then scroll down to "Home Settings", from there scroll down to "Clock Skins" and you should see it available. DO NOT USE SUPERCLOCK SETTINGS TO DO THIS, THEY ARE DIFFERENT!

>>Make sure before you do this, you put the extracted folder into "skins" and not "scskins". That is for Superclock Skins, THEY ARE DIFFERENT!
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
Hey Skyward......did you finally get it to work? Let me know if you have any more problems;)
[Epic 4G Themes] skyward01:
Ok, I will try that. Thanks for helping me with all my noob questions.
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
You bet brother;) We all gotta start somewhere.......let us know how it goes:D
[Epic 4G Themes] skyward01:
Ok, I'm starting to feel like a dumb ass here, this shouldn't be as hard as I'm making it. When I open BW in the app drawer I see, general, clock, weather, appearance, and advanced on top. I can't find home settings anywhere in any of these menus?
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
Try scrolling down to "clock", tap on it, then see if there is a "clock skins". That's what you want.
[Epic 4G Themes] skyward01:
Nothing like that under clock, appearance is the only one that has anything to do with changing skins, and it has super clock skins, weather skins, and battery skins. Nowhere can you just change clock skins? Thanks for trying to help me, but i'm done messing with it.

Really like the theme, thanks for putting in all the hard work so the rest of us can enjoy it.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
There is an addon that you also need to download for animated weather. Do you have that installed. To updated the weather press the sun, moon and in the menu is the clock skins. If u don't see my clock check you SDcard folder \data\beautifulwidgets\skin\TW671_Blue_Arial_Clock and make sure there is not a folder with the folder called TW671_Blue_Arial_Clock. If it is there is then that is what your problem is. Some programs used will create a folder called the same as the zip file. And you end up with a folder within the the folder.
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
I do believe if you click on "weather skins", like you were referring to above, it will also show up.

>>Don't give up buddy, we'll get this straightened out;)
[Epic 4G Themes] skyward01:
For what it's worth I can get the weather part of the skin working by placing the file in the wskins folder, the clock only (not the background) will come up if I put the file in the scskins folder. If I put the file in skins folder only I have no way of selecting it. When I open the BW app I'm not seeing the menu you guys are talking about.
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
You have the animation package installed also, correct?
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
One more thought, if you're using a warez copy of "beautiful widgets", they put a block on using skins until you purchase the program.
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
Make sure that the FOLDER you extract from the .zip file says: "Timberwolf671_Ariel_Blue Clock". DO NOT MESS WITH ANY CONTENTS INSIDE THIS FOLDER. Take this FOLDER and place it in your sdcard/data/beautifulwidgets/skins. Once this is done, if you already have the widget installed on your home screen, go ahead and tap and hold on it and drag it to the trash can that pops up. This will allow you to start over fresh. Now, from your main screen, go ahead tap and hold until a menu pops up, select widgets then beautiful widgets, then "BEAUTIFUL HOME WEATHER". From there you will see a menu pop up that starts out with "Weather Service", scroll down about half way and you will see "Clock Skins" and "Weather Skins". SELECT "CLOCK SKINS" and you will see Timberwolf's skin after that.:D
[Epic 4G Themes] skyward01:
That was it! I now have the clock! Thanks for all your help! It only took an entire day for me to get it, you guys have lots of patients!
[Epic 4G Themes] Leeboy:
When you're 40 years old and you have a 26 year old girlfriend, you learn the hard way about patience;) Glad everything is working for ya. When you get tired of this theme, check out some of Timberwolf's other themes...they all kick ass:D

[Galaxy 3 General] sikolymester:
I flashed my Galaxy i5800 from the stock 2.1 firmware with Kyrillos' 3.3 Rom. Now Iam faced with the fact, that it does not contain the samsung stock pdf reader. Is there any way to install that somehow (as I liked its' text reflow capabilities a lot more, than any other free pdf reader I can find on the market) ?

Before flashing the new ROM I made a full Titanium backup of my system, but I cant find the pdf reader software in the backup list (maybe it has a name which does not contain the word pdf?).

Any Ideas?
