Lol, I like the ICS theme but it does get boring. I need some Mixer flavor, I'm willing to do some testing though just let me know
[Android Themes] Echo113:
I love this theme. What's the deference between the 2nd and 3rd one on op? Is there anyway to turn off the battery percentage ?
[Android Themes] coupetastic-droid:
If you're using cm7 you can go into settings/cmsettings/interface/stat bar tweaks/and check batt percentage.
[Android Themes] coupetastic-droid:
Ah I see what you mean. I don't think you can take the actuall numbers out without modifying the framework.
[Android Themes] Echo113:
Yeah. I just went into it and seen that the numbers are attached to the gauge. So I'd have to edit each pic to remove them. Not that important. Lol

relayed from my CM7 powered Mytouch 4g!
[Android Themes] Clarkkent434:
I have been wonder my self the difference between the two. 3rd seems buggy on my Evo and the dialer is kind of messed up. But the 2nd works great for me.
[Android Themes] _ice_:
damn can can't wait! I love this shiznit! umm I have a question I am using launcher pro with sense mod, when I install the theme the background for the dock disappears and becomes transparent, and the app drawer {sense like} dock gets reverted back to stock launcher pro {home} icon. can you fix that? Also will the new version work with royal ginger 1.5 (mt4g) which is based on nb #31 (much better than cm 7 stable) atleast GPS locks on faster :\

I will buy a beer when I get a job :P or when you come to the bigtx android bbq :D

I'm not worried about it.

What does this mean from the CWM page?

"Description

After flashing this image your device will permanently use ClockworkMod recovery version 3 with kernel 2.6.32. If you didn't understand that sentence, close this browser window right now."

Can you flash back to RA or another CWM version? Will it work with the SZ 1.1.0 kernels?

BD
[Android Themes] kwonkimok:
this works w/ MT4G CM7 final version?\
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
It will work with any ROM that has the theme chooser. So yes it will..

That is actually by design because launcher pro is themed in the mod. You could probably open it up and change that though.
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
update: 4/12/11 v.04

Changed statusbar pulldown

I have left the older versions up for now but as always I suggest using the newest which is Mixer_04
[Android Themes] tsipa:
Good work as usual! Though I must say, I prefer "Mixer" in the pull down bar rather than "Notifications".
[Android Themes] Echo113:
Not me! I love the new look. Plus the blue at the top is sweet!

relayed from my CM7 powered Mytouch 4g! Go Steelers!!
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
At some point I may make 2 versions. However if you know how to open the apk I left the Mixer pulldown image in there it just had a 2 after the name..

Follow?
[Android Themes] tsipa:
I think I understand, I have never edited a theme before though. I assume it's in the drawable-hdpi folder? Anyway, I will have to try this when I get out of work, this is too frustrating to do with Root Explorer.

Wallpaper

:confused::confused::confused:

I don't know why but the wallpaper didn't apear...Could you post the image please!!!!..Or tell me why that happened to me..:(
[Android Themes] chazglenn3:
I also like the latest pulldown better...especially the blue at the top. Thanks MrDSL!
[Android Themes] Echo113:
Is there anyway to change to status bar to transparent? Or how can I? 7zip? Also when I dial a number, a weird box pops up around the + sign. Anybody else get that or how to fix it?

relayed from my CM7 powered Mytouch 4g! Go Steelers!!
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
Well there is a way but it looks like crap on any background other than black..Thats why it was done away with a long time ago..I actually use to have a semi transparent status bar but it had issues with left over imagines..

I love transparent as much as you probably do but sometimes it just doesnt always work the same..Although again these are very minor changes and maybe I can release a full transparent status bar and then the one I have now.

I know about the dial image you posted above and I still haven't got it to work right..At some point I'll get it I'm sure..
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
Have you used ZipThemer? Of course you're on cm9?

thanks
[Android Themes] mexicandroid:
Its been a while but I have used it, on CM7 I used theme chooser to apply themes and I would just add new lockscreen and reboot menu images to the apk's themselves before I flash a rom. Makes me feel like I'm doing something important lol
[Android Themes] Kfunk:
Sign me up-I will be glad to help out and test it for you!
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
I'll have a test version here in a few for zipthemer if you two are gonna be around this morning.
[Android Themes] Kfunk:
I will keep checking in today for the test.
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
I'm uploading right now..

The main zip will be for zipthemer...once you create your flashable zip with zipthemer then add the .apk's I have in seperate zip called Add to zip.zip

Follow?
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
Okay here is the zip to make with zipthemer

http://db.tt/ddkr1si4

once you have your flashable zip just add these apks to it before flashing.

http://db.tt/ynjCfPwm

let me know..thanks
[Android Themes] Kfunk:
Thanks - I will check this out today. So, just saw you are rocking the Galaxy Note now... how do you like it? I wish Sprint would get this phone or something like it!
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
Its the best phone I've ever used...won't be going back to anything smaller at this point..

Love this phone!

[Android Themes] vinal:
Just got this loaded. Looks good!

One issue so far: I was displaying battery percentage in status bar. This theme also showed percentage in its icon, but since changing to icon only, I just get a filled in blue circle now. Tried all settings and reboot with no change. Will try re-installing theme soon.

Great improvement though. Thanks.

Edit: When connected to computer usb, I can get percentage in theme icon and system's percentage. When usb disconnected or connected to charger, the theme icon changes to filled blue circle.

Title in dialogs seem to be transparent and extends past borders.
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
Odd thats not on mine..My guess is your phone is HDPI correct?

The images are sized for XHDPI so thats probably the issue.
[Android Themes] vinal:
Yes. It is hdpi.
[Android Themes] DaXmax:
Through his records, his phone is HDPI... So when we will see a HDPI version soon?
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
it should work with HDPI right now even with the larger images except for maybe a few things here or there. my hope if the cm9 theme engine handles pretty much the same way the cm7 one did..they didnt need to be resized(some did but not all) and the engine just downsized them.

i still have to get permission from some awesome themers to use images..learn the code changes from GB to ICS..

i want to do pretty much the same with cm9 as i did with cm7 theme engine. put a Mix of the best elements of everything..well at least in my eyes..help other themers port their themes to the new engine.

Just flashed the theme and it is sweet, love it, I'm actually on a AOKP modified version called Slim on my Tmobile Samsung Vibrant and it I just love it, especially.the dark mms.apk

Also is there any way you could give people/contacts.apk a black background. I know you do this for your taste but its just a suggestion and thanks got sharing
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
Yeah im trying to get the contacts black but no success so far..
[Android Themes] mexicandroid:
I was getting ready to go back to CM7 because I got bored of the stock ICS theme until I tried your theme. Thanks
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
Okay try v4 http://db.tt/OWIAoQEF

Should give black contacts..I hope

[Android Themes] mslatter:
MrDSL,

Work forced me to drop my N1 and go to the Sensation. I rooted right away, and upgraded 2.3.? to Virtuous ICS ROM for the Sensation. Was thrilled when I saw you were playing with themes for ICS, so downloaded your V4 you posted a few posts back, but it failed. Aborted right after it said it was installing, and nothing changed on my phone's gui. Not knowing much about the install process, I'm not sure what else to tell you. You know I was a huge fan of the Mixer Circle when I had the N1. I deleted other apps (due to space restrictions) just to keep your Theme on it!....best out there =) Anyway - good luck with it all and I'll keep monitoring just in case anything more comes of it.

Cheers,

Mark.
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
That zip is for zipthemer. You can't flash it directly..get zipthemer from the market and set edify then point it to v4 and it will build you a flashable zip

Badass
[Android Themes] vinal:
Yes. Maybe this weekend I'll one of the other cm9 ROMS for the fascinate.
[Android Themes] vinal:
Is that image part of the theme?

I also don't get the battery digits in my battery status.
[Android Themes] mslatter:
Thanks for the advice! I installed zipthemer, updated edify by pointing it to the zipped ROM I have installed (Virtuous Inquisition v4.0.1) and all looked good. Chose your v4 zip and selected "Build It". All looked good except a note that:

"Some items will be skipped due to missing system files...

/system/app/Contacts.apk

/system/app/DeskClock.apk

/system/app/LatinIME.apk

/system/app/Mms.apk

/system/app/Phone.apk

/system/app/ROMControl.apk

/system/app/Settings.apk

/system/app/SystemUI.apk

/system/app/Talk.apk

/system/app/YouTube.apk

....but I pressed on since it did create a Mixer.zip. Booted into recovery and flashed Mixer.zip, with no errors....although it was very quick... rebooted and nothing has changed at all. So I'm guessing nothing was really created.

Not sure if it's even worth your time, but I've been longing for the ability to change up ICS...I find it very boring....but love being on the bleeding edge (or close to it). I'm happy to troubleshoot if you'd like. If we get it working, I'll post on the virtuous thread...again, if you'd like =) If not, no biggie. It was certainly worth a shot!

Cheers,

Mark.

Edit: Now that I'm looking through file manager, my apks are "com.android.mms.apk"..... am guessing that's the problem, but I'd think Edify would have noted that when I pointed it's update to the ROM zip installer?
[Android Themes] mexicandroid:
The superman Android is not part of the theme just a wallpaper. that picture us the lockscreen with pattern unlock selected

not sure why the digits in the battery don't show for you. In on Skin ICS which is a modified version AOKP. Also in the battery display settings in rom control I have battery with centered text selected
[Android Themes] gwbard:
hell yeah this has made my day! :D

my CM7 devices were ALWAYS sporting the latest Mixer theme, and I was really missing it with CM9

@MrDSL: the popup title misalignment is still there with V4...

if it helps you, I'm running AOKP on the Galaxy Tab 7" (600x1024, 160dpi)
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
Are these located I'm system/apps/ ? Yeah a link to the rom always helps.

Sent from my GT-N7000
[Android Themes] mslatter:
Yeah, they're located in that directory, just with a different name. Can I just edit the links in the Mixer_ICS.xml file, and put it back in the zip file for zipthemer to build?

Cheers,

Mark.
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
That will work yes..if they're in system it would be better to just name the apks correctly but that could be my ocd.

Sent from my GT-N7000
[Android Themes] mslatter:
Thanks MrDSL,

Looks like that fixed it. Just some subtle changes, nothing dramatic. The lockscreen is different, and the USB is all I notice so far...but very nice =) I couldn't find the LatinIME.apk, ROMControl.apk and YouTube.apk. Don't "think" those are that important....I like my keyboard anyway since I'm using Swift-X. Then on the build, it said nothing was updated other than the framework-res.apk, which had 2564 entries updated. So just one apk was updated, the rest just had "updated 0 entries". In case you want to see it, or tell me what I did something wrong (if anything), here are links to 2 screen shots, and the xml I used.

add these apks to your flash zip and tell me if it works

Never mind on your post the link isn't on blue but on my post it works

Edit: ok the background is now black in the people.apk thanks
[Android Themes] mslatter:
Hey MrDsl,

Should the apk's be in the root of the flash file, or in the folders with similar names? Contacts in the contacts directory for example....? Or just in the root?

Cheers,

Mark.
[Android Themes] vinal:
With v5, I also have black backgrounds now, but since I added the Contacts apk I can't launch the dialer anymore. Says app not installed. Anyone else see this?
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
You have phone.apk in system folder?

Sent from my GT-N7000
[Android Themes] mexicandroid:
They should be in the system/app folder with the rest in the zip file
[Android Themes] vinal:
Yes. The phone icon I have that launches the dialer seems to be part of Contacts.apk.
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
its possible that contacts.apk isnt compadible with your rom..flash your old one and see if it works again
[Android Themes] vinal:
Right. It does work when I flash the theme 'undo'.
[Android Themes] mexicandroid:
After v5 with the add to zip file apk's my messaging.apk background is now white
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
yeah that contacts.apk is based off 4.0.4 and it should work but if it doesnt then the ROM you're using must not be on that base.
[Android Themes] vinal:
My rom is 4.0.4 based off cm9, but kanger may have modified that file.
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
correct...the new Mms.apk that was built yesterday has some new features..mainly emojii support so the only thing im replacing is the images..

it takes XML edits to get that black and im still working on that..if you dont mind skiping the new options using the older Mms.apk will work fine.

I believe cm9 will add black background in the options like in cm7 at some point.
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
he must have because thats stock contacts.apk
[Android Themes] mslatter:
Hey MrDSL,

Got it...sorry, misunderstood. I thought we added them to the zip file before creating the update file with zipthemer. Looks nice! I've included a few pics...

[Android Themes] MrDSL:
looking at your pics it doesnt look like SystemUI.apk was themed...can you check that?
[Android Themes] vinal:
Loaded another ICS and force installed the phone.apk and dialer works now.

Still not seeing percentage in battery icon, but no biggee.

Looking better with each version!
[Android Themes] vinal:
New ROM has option to put battery pct in icon. Duh.
[Android Themes] mslatter:
So you're saying this can look even better?? LOL Sorry, not sure how to confirm that? Looking at the zipthemer log, it does say "Package system/app/com.android.systemui.apk, updated 0 entries, signed with key: testkey" . I edited the xml because I couldn't find "SystemUI.apk" in ICS system/app...but found the one I mention above and "assumed" it was the correct one? Looks like the only apk that got updated was framework-res.apk that sits in system/framework.

If you're referencing my icons on the bottom for SMS, Contacts e.t.c., those are custom icons. After pushing phone and contact.apks over to the phone, I lost both of those particular icons and your two cool icons popped in there....so I edited the links with the graphics to match the browser and SMS.

SMS is still white - not sure if it's supposed to be or not? Email is blacked out, and love the blacked out contacts....great job!

Let me know if I can help in any way?
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
the entire statusbar and pulldown should be themed..if it had zero entries in systemui.apk then it didnt theme it..

its really weird that your ROM isnt even using the correct names like

SystemUI.apk

Mms.apk

etc

the Mms.apk wont be blacked out this version because they added new stuff and I havent figured out how to black it out yet....you can use the older Mms.apk from the version before though.
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
Mine looks like this

Sent from my GT-N7000
[Android Themes] mslatter:
Looks great! I don't know why they're named differently in this Virtuous ROM.... I've renamed the xml files to select the files I think are being referenced. Maybe there's another systemui file in a different directory. I'll do some searching and see what I can figure out. If I do figure it out, I'll post it here for anyone else looking for the info.

Thanks for all your man - and appreciate your help. Thought after I got the sensation on ICS, Mixer was gone forever....not so!

Cheers,

Mark.
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
Whats the link to the ROM you're using? Let me look at it..

edit...looking at the ROM link its actually a Sense UI ICS rom that has sense removed and AOSP elements added..Thats probably the issue of why some images arent matching up.
[Android Themes] mslatter:
You're the man - I'm not even going to pretend I know what that means, but if you understand, I'm good with it =) Thanks again for your hard work! Here's an image of part of my /system/app directory:

[Android Themes] salomaoa:
@MrDSL

I am a donator since I bought your mixer theme and applied it to my "old" Cm7 ROM.

However, presently I'm using ICS (Aurora ICS v4.0.4) on my Huawey IDEOS X5 (U8800) and for a long time I was absent from this thread.

Today I was looking around just to find out if you were working on a ICS theme and I found you are!!!

I downloaded you Mixer ICS V5 and tried to flash it using clockworkmod, but didn't succeed. I got an error and install was aborted.

Is there anything wrong? Can this theme be applyed to my AURORA ICS ROM?

Thank you for your help.

[Android Themes] dustinb17:
You can't just flash the Mixer zip in Recovery, you have to download Zip Themer in the market and use it to create a Zip that you can flash in Recovery.
[Android Themes] mexicandroid:
Download .Zip Themer (free from the Play Store)

Open Zip Themer

2. Hit the Theme button

3. Select the downloaded zip file and let it finish

4. Hit menu soft button

5. Select Update and Edify

6. Use installation zip made just for the Vibrant. ( not like the Slim Zip installation files because it is used for different devices, use a zip file like CM9 or AOKP it's what I used)

7. Then touch the configure button and let do its thing.

8. The hit the Build It Button

9. Then install the zip file

If this doesn't work I won't know what else to tell you out can't get simpler than that good luck ;)

I posted this in another thread, same principle, or go to the official website
[Android Themes] salomaoa:
Hello

I've installed the theme according your instructions and it is running ok now.

By the way, what a superb theme!!!

I suggest you update the first post since it has no info at all about the ICS theme, just the cm7... Even better, you could create a new thread about this specific version.

Hey MrDsl and any Virtuous Inquisition user,

I edited the xml file to the correct names, and edited the folders in the zip file to match the correct names. YouTube, ROMControl and LatinIME were removed since I couldn't find them and they weren't really important to me. Then when I ran the Zip Themer on the new zip file, I got no errors and even all folders had updates succuessfully (verse just the framework-res) I've attached an image of the folder names, as well as the xml (saved as a text file for easier viewing) here:

Again, great job MrDSL! I hope this helps more people coming from different ROMS to use your awesome theme =)

[Android Themes] MrDSL:
I havent made another topic for this because Im trying to keep it on the down low..Mainly because this is suppose to be eventually for the cm9 theme engine that hasnt been implimented yet..

I imagine once its in cm9 then other AOSP ICS ones will add it.

I got tired of looking at ICS so I figured I would start now and share what I have to those who may also be running beta cm9 or the like.
[Android Themes] stevew84:
I see the changelog only goes to 1.6, but there is a 1.7 version in the download link. I hear talk about the ICS version of this theme, is that the 1.7? I'm running Team Nekkid's Kang buster RC1 CM7 at the moment and I installed the 1.7 apk but nothing happened.

I'm going back to the 1.6 HDPI apk and trying the same thing. Am I doing something wrong?
[Android Themes] stevew84:
Tried to apply 1.6 HDPI and got this...
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
Thats normal..apply anyway..

1.7 was a minor image update and nothing more..

Maybe later on you can also port the ICS theme to CM7,

have you ever made a theme for MIUI?
[Android Themes] MrDSL:
I already have a solid theme for cm7 though...Mixer 1.7 ;)

I made a MIUI theme long long ago but I don't use MIUI anymore so I doubt I'll ever theme for it and I'm not really fond of their new theme engine to be honest...Someone might port it to MIUI though.
