I downloaded blood red from the market, but it's saying it's not compiled right, even after the restart
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
Do something with the miscompiled package... Now it cannot be fixed even by UOT kitchen (Steel Blue 2.5). Getting rather ridiculous, frankly. :mad:
[Android Themes] akellar:
Worked fine for me.
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
Not for me and not for lots of other people apparently, otherwise there would noy be a huge (not working) miscompiled theme workaround in the package description on the Market.

This is a general issue with ALL the themes produced by these guys and has been lasting way too long. Tired of fixing it manually, and even the manual fix seems impossible with the latest version. :mad:
[Android Themes] akellar:
Then don't use the theme. No one is making you? Do you think edint and crew are sitting back not trying to fix it? Stomping your feet and throwing a fit is unlikely to make it work.
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
Excuse me Sir, you realize I actually paid for it? :rolleyes:
[Android Themes] akellar:
LOL Hope that $2 didn't empty your bank account. Seriously, they have already said they are trying to fix the problem. Uninstall the theme, pick the stock theme, reboot, download/reinstall theme, pick steel blue (or whatever theme you're using) and reboot again. Has worked fine for me every update. Yes I got the compile error this time as well. Doing what I just described worked fine.
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
Thanks for repeating the howto; which - as I repeatedly said - does NOT work. I am not alone with this issue, kindly read the thread.
[Android Themes] akellar:
Not true. It does work. It apparently just doesn't work for you. Regardless I am not going to clutter this thread with anymore of this junk. Edint and crew - awesome theme. Keep up the great work!
[Android Themes] Sleeepy2:
I have this issue with an mdpi device. I was using the one from the thread and it worked fine (no issues). I then bought the paid version and it didn't work.

So I was downloading the update, copying to sd card, copy to pc, run through the UOT Kitchen, unzip, copy to sd card, then install. This was a pain but it was working.

Now the latest version no longer works using this method and I lost the version before this that did work.

So as of now I am SOL.

FYI the market doesn't say anything about HDPI only.
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
Yeah, just for me...

Look, this is an issue acknowledged by the devs of the theme. Sadly, no fix again, and worse yet - this is even more broken now so even the UOT kitchen cannot recompile the APK with the latest version.

Thanks you. Exactly what I said. :(
[Android Themes] Sk0ly:
Haven't had any issues here. Never even seen the improperly compiled error.

Is there any chance you could do an LDPI version. It would be greatly appreciated
[Android Themes] cuezaireekaa:
maybee a fixxee

i too have tried everything and what worked for me was i changed my lcd density to 140 from the default 160. im using a cdma hero with CM7 nightly. that was the only way i got 2.5 to run on my hero. i too paid for it.

also...i had to revert to an older market because there was no download button to click on the newest market version of steel blue, which makes me believe the market version is NOT mdpi compatible. Im on an MDPI device btw.

hope this helps
[Android Themes] edint3000:
Unfortunately guys that error is due theme not being made in linux environment.

We are not experts in linux environment.

For now there is no fix for it on windows, be sure we will fix all the themes once there is one.

For now use any trick that works for you to apply the theme, and later no one knows...
[Android Themes] neederishelp:
So what you are saying is if they don't work, your Sol?
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
Hmmm well... thanks for the response. What is the problem with installing say Ubuntu at least on a Virtual PC/VMWare/Virtualbox machine or something to do the job properly? You really do not need to be an expert to install Linux these days... it is easier than Windows with some distros. :p

Also, could you be much more specific on the Windows-specific issue so that someone may possibly find a solution?
[Android Themes] edint3000:
I know installing ubuntu is not an issue, have it myself in dual boot. You have to compile theme from CM7 sources. That means making github acc, transfering theme to github then when theme is ready compiling it...

And i dont have any clue how this is done. That is the problem.

If anyone is willing to give me linux instructions im more than willing to learn.

But i dont think it will be an easy task :D
[Android Themes] kevin2516:
http://code.google.com/p/android-theme/wiki/TMobileThemeEngine

There was another guide but I can't find it.

I'm not a linux user, I just followed those guides and use linux to compile my themes, that's the only reason its there :L

Compiling on windows without preview img should allow it to work on phones.

[Android Themes] dr.notor:
That sounds a whole lot better than the current state as well...
[Android Themes] roobal:
This theme looks very nice, I will give it a try :)
[Android Themes] sarda74:
I'm using SunsetOrange and it's awesome, many thanks edint3000 for your work on this theme.

Has anyone been able to use transparent widgets with this theme (or any other theme posted in the OP)? The Pandora widget is driving me nuts, it loses its transparency when added to the screen, see the attachment. I am running LauncherPro Plus, if it helps with my issue. The widget becomes transparent if I switch to a default CM7 theme. Is there a workaround to make widgets stay transparent with this theme?
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
No issues with transparent widgets and Go Launcher Ex.
[Android Themes] sarda74:
I just tried Go Launcher Ex and the Pandora widget is not transparent. I re-installed Pandora, but this did not fix the issue.

Is Pandora somehow themed by this theme? If I switch to the OrangeOctane theme, then I get white text on the widget. With SunsetOrange the line below "PANDORA" and "internet radio" are orange.
[Android Themes] Riff76:
Been out of this thread for a couple of months. Got an EVO 3D, none of the themes there are as good as this one, I miss it
[Android Themes] dr.notor:

I kinda doubt what you have downloaded from Market is transparent at all. Why would anyone mod the widget otherwise?

This is themes fault, allready fixed it, will be in next release...
[Android Themes] Shadow-Nexus:
Hey man I can't install the lockscreen for steel blue in my htc g2
[Android Themes] Sleeepy2:
How are you "installing" it? You need to use MetaMorph from the market.
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
Better use ZipThemer. Makes a backup and does not crash-reboot your phone.
[Android Themes] Sleeepy2:
ZipThemer eh, to the Market..... I go
[Android Themes] Sk0ly:
Why would you need a backup, just reflash the rom without deleting user data to restore. I, personally, have never had any problems with metamorph either. You just have to make sure usb debugging is on

[Android Themes] Shadow-Nexus:
Oooohhhh I thought I just needed to flash through cwm thanks man!

Sent from my G2 via transperent XDA app running Cyanogenmod 7.1
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
Pardon me, but reflashing a whole ROM is a considerably bigger hassle than restoring a backup of framework-res.apk plus one font from a small ZIP. Also, the Metamorph thing basically causes half-crash of OS on patching the framework. I really prefer to do things in a safe and sane way.
[Android Themes] Shadow-Nexus:
Thanks man it worked flawlessly!

I tried using metamorph but the stupid app said that I needed more space in system

So I installed zip themer and it worked like a charm!

Sent from my G2 via transperent XDA app running Cyanogenmod 7.1
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
Well, at least it worked... :D All good then. Now that you mentioned that, yeah, that space was another annoying issue with Metamorph. ;)
[Android Themes] Shadow-Nexus:
Here are the apps that I would love to see themed

Root explorer

Absolute system root tools

Advanced task killer pro

Barcode scanner

Ebuddy

Google + and huddle

Google maps

Ringdroid

Setcpu

Sim tool kit

Zip themer since metamorph acts stupid

Titanium backup

I know they are a lot but it would really make this theme better than any other theme I have tried

[Android Themes] edint3000:

I would buy it but I don't have a credit or debit card

Sent from my G2 via transperent XDA app running Cyanogenmod 7.1
[Android Themes] Sk0ly:
Never been a problem for me, I guess that could also be because I am on nightlies and I'm used to it. Literally a ten minute process. Check the change log to see if it is worth updating, flash latest rom without wiping user data, apply metamorph, update google talk because it isn't bundled in the gapps package yet, sign in to google and done. Not really a hassle at all.

[Android Themes] avi1333:
look so great.i try it in this afternoon.
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
That is nice, sadly I again cannot use it. Maybe if you could answer my previous questions about what exactly is wrong with compiling it on Windows as opposed to Linux, we could move somewhere. :(
[Android Themes] akellar:
Edint - from my reading it appears that if you leave out the preview pic (the one in theme chooser) it could fix the issue some are having with the theme not working. I am in no way knowledgable of this just happened to read it somewhere. Can't hurt to try, right?
[Android Themes] Sleeepy2:
I so hope I can find time to play with this tomorrow to get it to work for me. I need the notification bar changes as not being able to read the notifications is the only thing that bugs me about this awesome theme.
[Android Themes] droidfan77:
I love this theme, but now when I go and try and update it in the market I get this message:

This app is incompatible with your T-Mobile Samsung SGH-T959.

T-Mobile Samsung SGH-T959

This item is not compatible with your device.

The previous versions have worked on my phone. Is there a way I can fix this?
[Android Themes] cuezaireekaa:
yea, i paid for it too and now it's not compatible with my device either.. :eek:

EDIT: go to settings - applications - Market - uninstall updates then go to update it through the older market (warning this reverts to the older market) // my market eventually updates on its own and then install the new market 3.1.3 h t t p ://www.multiupload.com/29R5839RPC

Yep, Steel Blue is one of my favorites. Thanks dev!

[Android Themes] edint3000:
We allready know about that fix, but we had much more complaints of people not being able to find the theme when preview is disabled... before you would see just black image as a theme preview and that could be used... now you cannot see anything as the theme preview is for example one pixel wide... its hard to point to it this way...
[Android Themes] edint3000:
One more thing, maybe we could upload to market no preview version. But it would have to be sold at the same price as this one... so it would be fair to users that allready bought it. This version would work on all phones, including mdpi, ldpi but it wouldn't have preview... would that be ok, wanna see your oppinions. If anybody thinks this wouldn't be fair, speak now and the theme wont be published...
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
Wondering what you have changed between 2.4 and 2.5 which broke it totally. Before it could be fixed in UOT Kitchen, now nothing works at all, tried apktool and removing the preview references, resulted in APK that could not even be installed.
[Android Themes] edint3000:
I think no preview version would fix all those problems... but have to hear your oppinions first.
[Android Themes] dr.notor:
All game for it if you gave up on finding the real issue here, cannot really help much since beyond posting that it is a bug caused by compiling on Windows I cannot get any useful info at all. Impossible to debug like this. :p
[Android Themes] Sleeepy2:
I think that would be a good idea however there are two issues I see with this.

1. It needs to be tested to see if that would actually correct the issue first.

2. What about the people that already bought the first 1? I would have to buy the second one and then have two paid for apps, 1 that works (potentially) and 1 that doesn't :(

FYI I have no idea/skills to make themes so I do appreciate your work (That is why I bought it in the first place).
[Android Themes] edint3000:
You are completely right, then the only solution is to make an universal fix on old themes, woul be great if cm7 would show just black image as it did before... I would gladly trade preview image for no compiling error...
[Android Themes] bjohv052:
It may be on your agenda already, and is perhaps not planned before release of cm 7.1, but I wanted to show the custom app starter that needs to be metamorphed.

Thanks for a super theme.

I cannot apply the Theme with CM 7 official version.

In Theme Chooser, while moving slowly i can see "Steelblue" but can't choose it for applying, cause it will automatically switch to the next theme which has a preview so while i lift my finger to tap "Apply", the switch has already moved to the next one.

You really need to fix that preview :s

[Android Themes] dr.notor:
Yeah, but we need to start moving somewhere with this... can you produce some barebones "theme" testcase that produces this bug (i.e., one APK which works and the other with the preview which does not?) and upload the sources somewhere so that some java folks can look at it?

Glenn edint must have forgotten to put them in the op. As for the glitch, I would try a disable, reboot, enable, reboot to see if it solves it. I haven't had that issue. It could also be a glitch that is only in the orange version, I can't say because i'm using blue.

How did you apply the metamorph?
[Android Themes] denstratiotes:
I used Metamorph 1.9.8.14 app.

USB debug active -> Unzip on /mnt/sdcard/Androidthemes -> "pick existing theme" on xml file -> and "apply all".

Metamorph change font and framework-res.apk (after confirmation) and reboot the device.
