Ah yeah.. im so horrible XD I normaly did that, but been 2 months since I actually update my swiftkey and modded it.. gonna give it a new update now. Hopefuly my own compile apktool beta 8 works for this aswell.

Edit: Meh to bad.. every compile, even without changing anything gives a 100k of error lines.
[Android Themes] Apocalypse~:
Either use adb pull command or use an app like airdroid.
[Android Themes] nerotix:
airdroid doesnt work and I'm pretty sure adb pull wont work either, since there isn't a real .apk file on you're phone, only an .asec.
[Android Themes] jimwick:
............ really like the new Themes, thks for posting the update news. How is the beta working? debating if I want to install it or not........
[Android Themes] George_Mn:
Luckily I had a backup of an earlier version and I made it. Thanks for those really cool themes :)
[Android Themes] DharQuin:
Using the fix sonnysekhon posted (post #707) I was able to decompile, compile, install and run the newest version of SwiftKey (without actually applying the themes), however I keep getting the 'Unfortunately, SwiftKey has stopped' whenever I set it up or try to bring up the keyboard on any application in which I can type. Anyone got the newest version properly working?
[Android Themes] priyank.g:
wow looks real sweet, too bad I missed the free offer.! SERIOUSLY! :(
[Android Themes] ANDR01DN00B:
Here's a log, I was trying to re-compile, and got this beast of a log.
[Android Themes] ghosttrax:
I'm also getting an error when trying to compile. Just skip to the end .. I tried this on the trial before purchasing.

The themes look fantastic! Looking forward to getting them working. Thanks for the hard work.

Using apk multi tool

I'm trying to mod 4.4.1 version of swiftkey and i got some errors, can you repost the instructions to mod with multi tool? (Sorry my bad english)
[Android Themes] PhilDX:
iTzGavin96 prepared and posted an excellent tutorial earlier in this thread, start by reviewing his video here:

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=M5oagVB0AdE

complete a simple experiment first to make sure you have the basics working: decompile the swiftkey APK file, modify the androidmanifest.xml file as described in the OP, recompile, install and test the keyboard to make sure everything is working.

make sure you can get this far before trying to make any other mods to the APK.
[Android Themes] Popoto_:
everything works, except by recompile part, i will try the video, thanks

edit: the errors are "error: Public symbol style/Widget.AppCompat.ActivityChooserView declared here is not defined.", i think it's because the new version
[Android Themes] PhilDX:
i don't think this is the problem, but delete this file and try to recompile again:

/res/values/public.xml

edit: after thinking about this some more, I think your problem is with the frameworks file, I am not familiar with how apkmultitool handles this (I use apktool), but you can read up on it and I'll try to do an experiment after work tonight

Coudl make the light theme working?
[Android Themes] PhilDX:
hey dude, so i've got good news and i've got bad news...

the good news is that you're not crazy. Swiftkey changed something in version 4.4.1.241 (current play store version) and i cannot recompile either, even after updating to 4.4.2 frameworks.

the bad news is i'm probably not smart enough to figure out how to fix it.

i will dig into it later in the week as i have time but we'll have to see. Swiftkey added a special holiday theme in this package, so it's possible that the next release will be compilable again (similar to their beta's), but i dunno.

in the mean time, if you have a backup of an earlier version (version 4.3.0.196 is the most recent version i've themed), you should be good to go.

Is there a way I can mod the graphics myself with photoshop? I want to mod the beta with emoji's but I'm not sure how I can get the image files.
[Android Themes] rastigo:
[MENTION=3065937]PhilDX[/MENTION], do you mind sharing your files. I think it is very good mod
[Android Themes] PhilDX:
what do you want? the XML file I changed? I can upload that for you but the mod is slightly different depending on Swiftkey version, what version do you have?

also, if you're really asking for the APK, I can't provide that since it's a paid app, but you can download the beta version that also includes a top number row directly from swiftkey.net.
[Android Themes] rastigo:
I am using SwiftKey keyboard 3.1.0.177 cus when cloud storage started the predictions went for a toss. However I have all versions. I request you for xml files with how to do, if not much trouble to you. Alternatively since its a paid app, instead of posting apk here, i could email the apk to u for modding. Let me know what you want. Thx a lot
[Android Themes] turulojko:
Is there a real Holo theme (like in AOSP rom) for Swiftkey?

If not, can someone tell me how and which images to replace with the new one.

Thanks.
[Android Themes] rastigo:
[MENTION=3065937]PhilDX[/MENTION], awaiting your response
[Android Themes] PhilDX:
ok dude, here is a link to the mod i posted above for Swiftkey v4.2.1.202. the link includes one xml file: keyboard_layout_standard_qwerty.xml.v4p2p1p202

http://www.mediafire.com/view/41pkrx333jhr9ki/keyboard_layout_standard_qwerty.xml.v4p2p1p202

download this file and rename it "keyboard_layout_standard_qwerty.xml".

follow the instruction in the OP to decompile Swiftkey v4.2.1.202

copy the downloaded file keyboard_layout_standard_qwerty.xml to /res/xml in the decompiled project folder

copy the themed contents of Swiftkey_ApkTool.zip in the OP to the corresponding folders in the decompiled project folder

recompile and sign

that's it.

note that the linked xml file is for Swiftkey v4.2.1.202. it may requiring editing for other versions of Swiftkey.
[Android Themes] rastigo:
[MENTION=3065937]PhilDX[/MENTION], I tried the method suggested by you but I am getting brut errors. The OP files are as per the latest versions i guess....since there is no drawablexxhdpi fordler in 4.2.1.202. If I decompile the latest versions also it is an error. I have purchased swiftkey so is there a way to have your apk. I can send you my apk by mail if you like. I await your kind response.
[Android Themes] fergdizzle9090:
Is there any kitkat (Google keyboard like, black/grey/white ) for swype?
[Android Themes] rastigo:
[MENTION=3065937]PhilDX[/MENTION], I need your help again. I posted the errors. Pl help
[Android Themes] PhilDX:
yeah, I wasn't thinking, the swiftkey apktool file in the OP includes xml mods were modified over time as the SwiftKey code evolved. so for an older version, you will not be able to simply copy all resources into the decompile project. the best you can do is copy only the drawable files that already exist in the decompile project. do not include the xml mods included in the OP, just include the one I linked for the same version.

latest version of SwiftKey cannot be decompile yet, so don't spend your time on that.

in any event, SwiftKey is a paid app so I cannot redistribute modified copies, sorry about that.
[Android Themes] Daniel 07:
I'm really getting crazy with this. I'm totally in love with the white theme for SwiftKey but there is no way on earth I can make a working apk nor using my paid application or using an older version.

Is someone able to pm me one after I give the proof I bought the official app?

Thanks,

Regards

hey [MENTION=5240311]rastigo[/MENTION], i had a copy of 3.1.0.377 in my backups and i just modified the keyboard layout to include a top number row. i made the key height a little smaller than the other rows. i'm guessing this file didn't change between v3.1.0.177 and 3.1.0.377, but i can't confirm. why don't you give it a whirl and see what happens?

decompile swiftkey

copy keyboard_layout_standard_qwerty.xml file from link below into /res/layout

recompile

sign (use autosign tool in OP)

keyboard_layout_standard_qwerty.xml for Swiftkey 3.1.0.377:

edit: i forgot to mention, the keyboard_layout_standard_qwerty.xml file i edited is for english language, if you use a different language, you will need to make similar edits to the keyboard_layout_standard_qwerty_[LANGUAGE].xml file in the /res/layout folder

Hey guys, a new swiftkey beta just dropped. Has anyone had luck compiling it with the theme? If so, feel free to drop a link for those of us who haven't been able to get it :)
[Android Themes] sonnysekhon:
Here's the new beta themed: https://www.dropbox.com/s/60t0dexa34rd1lt/SwiftKey_Public_Beta-4.5.0.22_II.apk

I couldn't compile it properly so had to theme it the old fashioned way.

Only the Holo and Pitch themes are working. I can't figure out why the rest aren't theming, even though I replaced all the images.

Edit: Seems like they're now using code to draw the assets for the rest of the themes instead of using images. Seems as if the Swiftkey developers are monitoring this thread and trying to figure out new ways to mess things up for us!
[Android Themes] PhilDX:
Hey Sonny - you've made it clear in the theming thread that SwiftKey cannot be themed via theme chooser, is that true for just the secondary character keyhints on the top of the keys too? I tried adding just that mod to a theme last night without success. I could almost live with the cobalt theme if the key hints were more visible. Just curious, thanks
[Android Themes] sonnysekhon:
Hey Phil, unfortunately, it's true. They use a proprietary aapt which renders it unrecognizable to the theme chooser. Let's hope the main release is more mod friendly.

Seems like they're bringing 3rd party theme support in the future.
[Android Themes] PhilDX:
Thanks for the clarification, I appreciate it
[Android Themes] marionite:
Hi sir. I have a request. Can you please theme the Samsung Keyboard? There is only black and white. You can import the cobalt/holo theme and also the light theme. Would really appreciate it. I'm sure a lot of users will also love it. Thank you! And well done themes! :good::good::good:

[Android Themes] Audioboxer:
In the OP the Holo theme only has white icons, on this newest beta the blue is back. Intentional or limitation with the new beta? :highfive:
[Android Themes] sonnysekhon:
Intentional, because there was some text that was blue, so to make it look consistent, I colored the bottom row icons blue.
[Android Themes] sonnysekhon:
Added your MOD to the OP Phil, thanks a lot for your hard work.
[Android Themes] PhilDX:
so, i'm conflicted. after using this keyboard mod on a bunch of different devices, i'm starting to think this layout is more practical (at least on tablets). but man, the asymmetry just kills me, don't know if i can live with it :)

just playing. simple top number row mod with left and right arrow keys for Swiftkey v3.1.0.377 and v4.2.1.202.

[/URL][/IMG]

it's a simple mod actually:

decompile Swiftkey

download appropriate zip file and extract "keyboard_layout_standard_qwerty.xml" file

For Swiftkey v3.1.0.377, copy keyboard_layout_standard_qwerty.xml file to /res/layout

For Swiftkey v4.2.1.202, copy keyboard_layout_standard_qwerty.xml file to /res/xml

edit AndroidManifest.xml (change package name from "com.touchtype.swiftkey" to "com.touchtype")

recompile

sign

Swiftkey v3.1.0.377:

Swiftkey v4.2.1.202:

http://www.mediafire.com/download/fwpl5uaejyau9tk/TopRowWithArrows_Swiftkey_v4p2p1p202.zip

its really starting to annoy me that i can't figure out how to change the color of all the top row keys to match the function/arrow keys...

The problem is that if you don't resign it, it won't install, because the files have been modified, but changing the certificate conflicts with amazon's copy protection. There is no easy way around it.

On my Droid X, I uninstalled the original swiftkey, then sideloaded the new one. At first, there was an error that wouldn't let me actually get into the settings. I then went to enable the swiftkey keyboard and then it let me get into the settings. However, since I purchased through amazon, Amazon's appstore popped up saying I should update the app (since it doesn't recognize it anymore, probably the signatures?). I clicked ignored and then settings and everything worked. I was worried at first, but by just ignoring some of the error messages, I was able to get through...

PLEASE

5 times is still not the charm in my case, driving me insane
[Android Themes] JokerAce:
Did both of you replace the folder instead? Please do not replace the folder. Go into the themed folder, and select all the content, then go to the decompiled swiftkey and into the respective drawables folder and copy over the content. Click yes and replace all content.

I repeat, do not replace folders. Becuz, the themed folder does not contain xml files which the swiftkey requires for it to work. By replacing folder instead, you are removing xml files which results in failure to compile or unworkable theme. Try again, and post your results here.
[Android Themes] Shialie:
Thank you again for this great work!! But I have a question: What lines in style.xml or colors.xml are responsible for the color of the flow line?
[Android Themes] balente84:
It's all about decompile, change files, and rebuilding it. So if you follow instructions, it'll work all the time I guess. It works perfect on v4.3.2.235

EDIT : I just read some posts about that Swiftkey changed their way to theme. But, also OP's file and instructions have been updated, I didn't even notice and it worked just fine. Lucky me :D
[Android Themes] Shialie:
Nice thanks for the evidence that it works perfect with the v4.3.2.235. I tried it with lots of other versions but the Flow-line wasnt't white and some other viual appearances wasn't so fine like I wished for... And I was to lazy to edit style.xml manual because I couldn't replace it with the style.xml of sonnysekhon's .zip because the .xmls didn't accord.

But with v4.3.2.235 everything worked fine!
