Omg it worked i used the original apk, then i edited also the theme list. Json adding the missing theme, then i added the theme and the resource folder related, then again i zipped the folder, renamed the extension to apk, and signed with zip signer from playstore and it installed fine. Thank you very much for the suggestion about using the original app, and for the effort. I need to experiment a little more, since the colors I changed aren't all in the place I planned to be plus after a while it force closes...but a step forward was accomplished somehow :o
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
I wanna see Bubba original themes pronto! Just kidding, good job you two!

Everyone:

I'm feeling better today so I'll work my themes and the update today. :angel:
[Android Themes] blestsol:
Not sure if this is frowned upon too much here but I have a request. I'm not expecting it to be done or anything or demanding. I saw the batman themes and other games and stuff and my request is could you guys make a Transistor one? The game Transistor. If it's a no, it's cool. Love the app regardless.
[Android Themes] [] AL []:
You could easily do this by yourself by editing one of the themes you've mentioned. Simply replace the exiting pictures (plurial because 4 dpi folders PLIS possibly portrait and lanscape ones) used as background. Try to match dimension and keep the file size as down as visually possible..

Although to my limited experience in that matter, all I can say is that I remember it to be tricky as a lot of cropping is going on. Jist look at the total screen area to keyboard area ratios between min and max kb sizes, with and without number row and arrow keys and portrait vs landscape... As I remember, SK fits the pic size horizontally then crops the bottom of it no matter what (even with different landscape + portrait bgs used). If it's still is the case, it's quite a limitation...
[Android Themes] bubbasqueeze:
Sorry to bother again, I have a major issue now. I cannot identify wich item's name is related to what I want to theme and viceversa, without experimenting randomly...but since i get every theme has a different structure is a bit of difficult...like what is on the keyboard: the keycandidate or keycandidate top, or what is the keyspecial or keyfunction or keyextended (I bet this is the number row)??? I would like to know also what is the name of the buttons of the suggested words top row :confused:

I have no idea also on what dpi I have to work on, since my phone is full hd 5.1 inches...it is xxhdpi but I only find less dpi ratios.

P.s. sorry for my poor english grammar :o

Small Change Log:

Added 4 new themes: Lakers, Barcelona FC, DeadPool and DeadPool 2

[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
What I did to learn what they do is make a color key so I know where the items are...Like I made some pink, green, blue, yellow etc to show what they were for...just to find out without installing it 30 times lol. I sometimes have to trace my steps that way still to keep me sane. Xhdpi will resize larger so that's the one for your device. Hope that helps!

Is possible that modifying an icon of an existing theme, like changing just the color and so the size of a png the theme just crash? I just painted a few a png (carbon theme) with Picsay adding a filter on them, keeping the name and the format, and then the app say "theme cannot be loaded". Has anyone experienced this? Thx in advance
[Android Themes] Dzepar:
If the pngs you edit are 9.png, yes it's possible. You need first to decompile (so it shows the 1 pixel border) edit, than recompile. Put them in theme your editing, resign and all should work. Use Search to find more about 9.png and how to edit them, search DJ post he mentioned earlier the tool for de/recompile 9.png in these thread. :)

Good Luck!

If you installed the apk it will never show updates...Only if you go searching for SwiftKey will it. If using the zip is can but looking at their release list only arm 64 devices have a v# one digit higher..arm is universal so works on all.

Well it failed to install :/ I know the download was good/valid, could it be bc I had the special MM/N version installed already?!
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
I think we covered this a page or so back. I've successfully updated on my phone right from AFH. Uninstall old then install new..abd I was on MM/N version too.

Nothing in this logs shows anything about SwiftKey. Make sure if you have a themed applied to remove them..reboot and try again. I was tracking a phantom bug from my theme a few updates ago.
[Android Themes] nathanchance:
Did you even read the log? They're identical. As DJ said, there is only one line that mentions Swiftkey and that isn't the problem, there is something else going on like a theme or another setting since it points to other processes, not just Swiftkey. Additionally, I'd recommend using a site like Pastebin for logcats or at the very least hide tags.

There are many programs like diffmerge that will let you compare with stock and show you we ONLY provide themes. Also XDA wouldn't let anyone provide such crap.

By all means do a compare so you can have no worries.

[Android Themes] Thebear j koss:
Because batman would never do that, would he? Further proof that it contains nothing nefarious or detrimental would be to go back to the op and see how long this thread has been going, from the beginning when sir Sonny was maintaining to this last post where Dj now maintains it, and just take a wild guess of how many users have come and gone, how many have installed it, look at the maintainer's XDA profile and see his exemplary work and what his background is. Then if you still have qualms or uneasinessness, read every post and see if anywhere it has been shutdown or reported as being a threat. Just like anything else, gonna have to take that leap of faith, whether it be into installing a ROM, a 3rd party app, believing that girl truly loves you, or Jesus will rise from the dead to eat our brains this easter, all a giant leap...
[Android Themes] IronTechmonkey:
Howl! Perhaps faith in Batman has been compromised because he is fighting Superman, but then maybe Superman is a metaphor for Google or Microsoft which makes Batman even more of a hero.

To be fair i am not a fan of comics or super heroes in general. The last super hero movie i watched and enjoyed was Flash Gordon circa 1982-83. Never got into the dc and marvel stuff. I liked spiderman when i was about 4 or 5, but i quickly lost touch once i saw evel kneivel.

The movie actually followed the comics extremely well. I suggest you read "The Dark Knight Returns" and "The Death of Superman". The movie will then make 100% sense.
[Android Themes] Thebear j koss:
Yeah, yeah i know. I'm just not a comic book fan or a fan of super heroes in general. I prefer my adam west batman from the 60s and 70s. Plus 99% of movie goers aren't reading comic books and just want to kill 2 hours of their boring lives...

Ok, there you go!!

As mentioned a couple times already, here's a zip containing my last two SSK creations AS IS. Three themes if DJ deems the AL Blue v2 worthy of replacing the original [and we might as well replace since the new ones call on the v2 resources and the color of those don't match AL Blue...]

No upper characters on those 2 (never thought I'd get used to that, but it's now growing on me...) and sorry for the unique blue accent, but I first did this for myself... So dig in and adapt to your taste..

Sorry (especially to DJ), AS IS once again also means that for now, those are partial themes and are only for xhdpi density and up.

Past 2AM here and it's enough SSK late love for me -especially after just having to swipe clean my system with fastboot and all...

I found out another thing is that, the theme (carbon light) that is used on the startup could not be deleted. It crashed when I deleted it. Is there anyway that I can delete that theme and use other for the startup theme?
[Android Themes] syverman:
You only need to put at the start up of your theme.json file, the name of theme you want to be the first theme that the app display. ?

Example ;

{

"version": 3,

"themes": [

}

"id": "petroleum",

"name": "Petroleum",

"formatVersion": 3,

"minorVersion": 3

},

petroleum is the first theme that SwiftKey is displaying.

Remember to keep the corresponding resources folders for the themes you want to keep and use, and always double check the theme.json files for the corresponding " comas" and your style.json equally.

Enviado desde Tapatalk
[Android Themes] [] AL []:
What you found was in fact already explained in both links you're quoting... Look inside Carbon Light's style.json file and check its dependencies...

As for your question, I don't really see the point of it, but you could try replacing that theme with another while keeping the carbon_light and its dependencies (material_resources) folder names and references intact...

edit: but syverman ninja'd me with a better answer...
[Android Themes] bubbasqueeze:
...i found out that it's crashing not only on my phone after setting the button volume in the app , maybe there is something wrong either in the text editor I'm using or in the signer (mixplorer or zipsigner). Am kinda discouraged for this tecnical issue
[Android Themes] Thebear j koss:
Post a log so someone can see if it is something you are doing or if it is your rom or device. DJ uses MiXplorer to update,and signs it with MiXplorer to test i believe, and he has no issues...

Thebe?r'$ NeXu$
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
There's no issues for other users. Stock has no issues? I need some help to help you otherwise I can't! Did you install apk or the zip...are you on stock Android or rooted custom Rom? More info the better but it's not the themes we added for sure!

I have a few times but mostly on the pc.
[Android Themes] Thebear j koss:
Yeah, i remembered you told me when i was having signing issue on MiX. Obviously transplanting 140+ themes and editing those json files would be such a headache to do every 2 or 3 days. Lol

Thebe?r'$ NeXu$
[Android Themes] bubbasqueeze:
Thx for the reply, my s5 is not rooted :o . I installed the apk normally as an apk, and i get the fc only setting the sound feedback from the swiftkey setting window. The issue occur only on the apk modified by myself. This happen also when changing a single hex color in the style text...the point is that if i use the keýboard without sound feedback it works fine. At this point I think the mix editor messes with the json/xml structure somehow, since I tried signing with 2 different apps. I am going next with a different android text editor or at least on the pc...
[Android Themes] syverman:
Unless you modify the apk itself, ie; decompile and change the sound files or any other files, creating or modifying a kustom theme can't affect the sound feedback.

As for the xml, double check the file and compare it with another or the original and see if you can find wheres the error, must be a "coma" or a # or something else, thats why you can applie that specific theme.

Uninstall the app, and install the unmodified SSK and see if that give you any issues with sound feedback.

[Android Themes] bubbasqueeze:
Even if I extract and zip back (normal or best compression method) the app and then sign (testkey) with whatsoever app, without editing anything, the issue still pops up :eek:
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
So this is your modded version? Sounded like you are having issues with the one we provided. I've done many things to break SwiftKey but never anything outside themes..sounds and vibration has nothing to do with themes. Signing it wouldn't either...you have a bug in the main res so nothing we deal with. I suggest staying over with a fresh version and use your pc to edit it using note++ and just sign it on your device.

Edit. DO NOT EXTRACT IT..I just noticed this...use 7zip free not WinZip. Open the apk using it and drag and drop from the apk. Extraction then compressing might be affecting the sound files in res.

DJ
[Android Themes] Thebear j koss:
That is it exactly. The sound files in the raw folder will break when extracted. Just copy and paste the assets folder onto sd card then back in when done making edits. This is why we use logcats to figure out what is wrong which i asked for a page or so back...

Thebe?r'$ NeXu$
[Android Themes] bubbasqueeze:
I did all the process on the phone, extracted the apk with both es file manager and with mixplorer, and edited with the same mixplorer or droidedit but gave the same issue. Next thing I'll do for sure is I'm gonna elaborate the whole thing on pc (win rar and notepad++) and see what happens. Sorry again for the annoyance :silly:
[Android Themes] Thebear j koss:
Don't extract. Either open the apk as an archive, archive add on in MiXplorer settings. Once opened, longpress the assets folder, choose copy function. Then paste the assets folder wherever you want on your sdcard. Extracting the app is breaking the compression of the files in the Raw folder i believe. Post a log using catlog or matlog after f/c to see the whole issue. Logs don't lie...

[Android Themes] bubbasqueeze:
Hi, i am no expert (sry) , but the mod u asking would be easy to do, if I get it right (u asking just to change the flow color right?)... I will try to help (I can only talk about Windows)... open the app with a zip manager, then navigate in the folders asset>themes>xperia_something>any folder. Then, open the style.json with notepad++, go to the string "flow", and replace the two hexes (color codes starting with #), with one of you choice (an orange should be #ffa500), in the parenthesis under the "color" string of the "flow" string. Save the json, and when your zip manager says if you want to apply the changes, confirm yes. Copy that json file in all the resolution folders (xhdpi, hopi, etc), always confirming the mods of your zip manager (for example winrar). Then take your app, pass it on the phone, Sign it with zipSigner from play store, and install it (it should overwrite it, otherwise just Uninstall the the previous apk erasing it's data).

It is harder to explain than Makin it, but all this process should apply for most color changing stuff.

Sry in advance for my bad English :o
[Android Themes] C_Karhu:

I will try it when I get home!
[Android Themes] C_Karhu:

[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
I use Swype myself so that would have been my first choice because I don't use SwiftKey. But I can't touch Swype, I used to make like 30 versions but almost got sued so I can't touch it without a theme system. Also the last time I tried just for myself and family, it fc like crazy just building with one edit. So I'm content on using my themes to have my Swype themes.

BlakKat CM13 theme with 10 modified Swype themes best I can do.

[Android Themes] TEKtheMAESTRO:
I want to start making themes but I'm having trouble. I tried to follow the instructions above on how to edit and save the apk. i wanted to change one of the existing themes accent colors. So heres what ive done so far:

Took the superswiftkey.apk file and placed on desktop

opened with winrar

went into the themes folder

selected the theme and changed style.json using notepad++

saved the new style.json in the 4 folders as instructed

went back to phone

deleted original superswiftkey.apk

replaced with the new .apk

when i tried to install the new updated apk it said app not installed

so then i download zipsigner

created a key as instructed

selected the apk as in the in and out

signed

the new signed apk is only 1.64kb in size. WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

and if you click on the new signed apk, you get "there is a problem parsing the package"

ive tried this 30 times but it never works. when i hit sign, it essentially skips all the work and instantly says operation successful. i tried it on another apk i have download just to see what would happen, but when using that apk it goes through the motions and creates the new index etc etc and it works. so why is zipsigner working with other apks but not the one i saved? did i do something wrong?
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
Use 7 zip not win zip. Drag and drop the theme you want to edit to your pc then edit them...make a copy is the original apk then drag and drop your folders back to the new copy apk. Sign it and install...fixed!
[Android Themes] TEKtheMAESTRO:
the sign and install part is whats not working. to my understanding, when you sign, its supposed to create a copy of the apk with the surname "-signed" and its doing that. The issue is, the copy is 1.64Kb in size. thats like what, a paragraph in notepad size? It shouldve been over 100Mb. so the copy its producing is incorrect.
