How would I go about creating a completely new lockscreen, one that might even inspire sbrissen to make a 7 or 8 lockscreen mod? I already have graphic design expertise and software, but only have limited experience with animation (all of that being in PowerPoint) and no animation software. What I'm really seeking is to learn how to incorporate what I design into the Android framework. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated :)

Another Fascinating post by my XDA app...
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
Creating a COMPLETELY new lockscreen would require very high coding expertise, along with graphic design expertise. I advise you do something akin to what i did, which was make custom images for use with another lockscreen to make it *seem* new.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] skynet11:
Ahh... good idea... no need to reinvent the wheel, huh? Thanks :)

Another Fascinating post by my XDA app...
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Wolfkmann:
I know other members asked for it, but I am having trouble reading my call log screen because of the completely transparent background. Is there/can there be a way to shade it in some way, to make the text easier to read?

Thanks.

Also, I noticed the the little icon on my status bar for bluetooth doesn't change when I connect to a device. Is it supposed to?

HELP: CRYSIS REVOLUTION ROM THEME that I can use with Continuum 5.5?

Does anyone know if there is a CRYSIS REVOLUTION ROM THEME that I can use with Continuum 5.5?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] chronster:
can you make this for those of us who don't like community rom? :)
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
community rom=winning

other roms/stock=not winning
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
Yea there pretty much is no reason to be on a stock rom, and even less of a reason to be on EF, so sorry but no.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] chronster:
What else is there? Most people just assume it's always going to be better to not be on stock, but they're wrong, especially with community rom.

Debloated/deodexed stock ED01 > community rom.

Literally within a few seconds of loading community rom, apps like the camera's picture browser gave me force closes, and the thing just felt clunky.

You may as well have credited laziness to a lack of effort, not any sort of fault of the stock rom, which is better.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
Wow...so we we are all lazy because of occasional issues that pop up and generally get fixed?

What have you ever done or contributed? Not much id imagine

But if you like the stock unmodified rom so be it....can't please everyone

Having spent time on each stock rom we have had I disagree greatly
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] chronster:
No sorry, not in regards to the rom but the theme. Its a little annoying when I see an obvious attempt to funnel people into a broken rom by demonstrating an absolute lack of ANY attempt to address what others use.

You want to make someone feel like a dumb piece of **** for not wanting your rom? Well don't be surprised when they cop a tude in response.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
Well my most sincere apologies then...by all means the op should redo the theme entirely for you

And having read your posts in the rom thread you made no attempt to logcat and post your problems...and i can't replicate them...so w/e
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] chronster:
Yes, since clearly I'm the only person not using your rom, which is WINNING despite the genuine issues it has. Why would I ever think to ask? Thanks for reminding me how dumb I am for being on a rom for losers.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
like i said, you didnt logcat the issues.....thats the end of it imo

and every rom has issues...including the stock one

[NOOB QUESTION] where do I download the wallpaper files to? I have been dragging them the root of my sdcard but it turns out to be a big pain when trying to browse them from my phone. Should I extract the files before putting the .zip on my phone?

sorry about being a jerk I didn't get my medicine this morning. seriously. sorry

+1. I really like this theme but the transparency makes some things difficult to read.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
I know it does but the theme is meant to have a background similar to the 2 included in the OP, however i understand that not everyone likes that. I plan to update all of my themes when comm rom 2.0 hits, which should be fairly soon. Ill include a version with a 50% transparent background for all of the transparent apps in the next version.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] chronster:
Not an idiot, just suffering from chronic bipolar disorder. I cant explain why, but I took the initial responses as insults.

I guess a sincere apology counts for nothing anymore.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] adrynalyne:
Saying oops I forgot my meds is a copout many people use.

Forgive us of we are not easily swayed.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] chronster:
Except I apologized and didn't just make an excuse not to, and here you are trying to make another conflict. I really don't give a **** if YOU are swayed, since it wasn't you I conversed with.

To be honest, had the response to my initial request included the explanation that theme developers only theme for the rom they are on, my outlook would have been different. I thought the process was done on a computer independent of the rom. My request never intended for the dev to flash a new rom to his phone just for me, especially since I find the process to be such a pain in the ass.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] adrynalyne:
Let me guess, forgot your meds again?

PS- I said we are not easily swayed. Not I.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] chronster:

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] TheMuffStuff:
Very nice theme, Blows mine away thats for sure.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] eibbed0001:
I have this theme and like it. However, I also use Go Launcher, which has themes of its own and am finding that a theme for my phone is therefore not necessary since Go themes most of the same items.

I've had no problems with the ComRom and it works very smoothly on my phone. So if themes are what someone wants, Go Launcher might be a good alternative.

Crap! i just found something wrong with the upload! ill have it fixed in a few minutes sorry! :(
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] tmlhodge:

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
Okay, sorry for that. Everything is fixed now!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Wolfkmann:
Installed the new version (3.5) over Comm Rom 2.0

looks good, looks the same as 3.3 for Comm Rom 1.3

Any differences/updates?

What about the ability to adjust the transparency in the call log/contacts screen?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
Ah yea i forgot i meant to do that with this update. Tommorow ill upload a patch to flash to give 50% transparency.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Wolfkmann:
Awesome, can't wait.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Dread This Day:
Awesome work man, but...Maybe I'm just stupid, or did you not post the old music.apk in the "Extras"? :-P
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Dread This Day:
Oh I understand. Honestly, you should make yourself take a couple days off from it. Let your batteries recharge, again though, thanks for this theme, it's just so clean and sweet.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Wolfkmann:
Thank you so much for the transparency patch!!

It works perfectly on my call log and contacts screen!!

Any chance you could also make a patch for the messaging screen? That would be wonderful.

Thank you in advance.

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] dklemp:
+1 for patch for messaging screen
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] dclutter1:
I'd love to see this too.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Dread This Day:
Anyone willing to post a couple of screenshots of what the transparency patch looks like?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] dclutter1:
The completely transparent version makes it look a little too busy for me, and subsequently hard to read. The 50% blocks out enough of the background to make it just right, imo. I can't wait until he gets time to patch messaging.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
Sorry for the wait, 50% transparent Mms patch added to the op.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] dklemp:
Thanks for the MMS patch!.... but the 50% transparency is only on the screen that shows all the people youve texted, not the actual text screen where your typing to a person.

hope this explanation makes sense lol
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
yea i know, i didnt think the message screen needed it since the text bubbles already had a background.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Wolfkmann:
I wouldn't mind them getting a bit of help. I think they need something. Maybe 40% if you don't want to go all the way to 50%
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] biggiedine:
how do i get that first unlock screen in the first picture
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:

thank u for this sweet theme and thanks to tsm for com rom 2
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Dread This Day:
Hey Funkbot, have you considered just adding an animated pull-down menu? I am sure by now you have seen it. I think it would be amazing, like a Matrix effect in the same blue, or the Honeycomb animation in the same blue. Just a thought, maybe I am the only one.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
Lol yes, not only have i seen it, but im the one who got it to work for our phones. However, i dont think i really want to do that for this theme. You could do it though if you wanted, if u follow the instructions i made: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14553910&postcount=24
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Dread This Day:
yeah, DOING it is not so much the issue, I just do not have a suitable animation for your theme. :( Any ideas on that?

Great work...i really like this theme. The only issue im having is for some reason, since I flashed the comrom 2.1 updated version, I have the sgs2 wallpaper on every lock screen style I try. Anyone else experiencing this?...Thanks for any help.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Rick S:
Forgot to mention Ive already tried default wallpaper option in tsm parts.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Jazz848:
Same here, but didn't think it was an issue. I ended up just copying the theme wallpapers into the DCIM folder on my SD so I could select them via gallery. Still shows sgs2 wallpaper on OS load, but it refreshes once media scan finishes. I'm sure there's a more elegant method, but this worked for me...

Any chance of making the status bar completely transparent, PLEASE !!! :D it would realy stand out against the stock background, I'm loving the transparent things already done!!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
that lockscreen was the old miui lockscreen, but sbrissen got rid of it in comm rom2.1 and replaced it with the gingerbread miui lockscreen. I'll probably theme it similarly eventually but these last few days i have been really busy and havent had any chance to be on my computer.

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
i think its safe to say that its been over 6 months since an update that it wont be ported to cm7

im sure he intenteded to at one time, but common sense would indicate its not happening
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] st379:
there were several request to make these theme on cm7. (not only in this forum)

i believe that offering money to developer is the only way to see this theme on cm7, no one wants to do things for free.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
well if no one has started a port to cm7/tmo theme engine it prolly wont happen for awhile

most themers are waiting on w/e new theming gets added to aosp in the future for ics

This is by far one of the best themes i've seen, i used this when i was on froyo. I am now on stock 2.3.5 and just rooted :D I wish i could use this on my stock gingerbread......guess ill look around for some gingerbread themes

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
Okay so ive been working on this phone.apk all day and its pretty much been kicking my ass the whole time. This thing has probably taken just as much effort as the rest of the theme combined so far. However, i have a sneak peak. I've still got a lot to do on it, and if things go well tomorrow it will be out tomorrow night.

That would be really hard to do, i dont think im skilled enough with photoshop to do that and it still look good. However i intend to eventually make another version of the battery to match those better.

My gmail is working fine. are you on the ec01 or superclean version? Try going to Settings>Applications>Manage applications> and finding gmail and clearing data for it.

Updated the OP with a dialer and phone patch. In the dialer i removed the contact picture that pops up next to the number you are dialing.

Its highly likely that i will have another patch up later tonight to fix the black on black setting text in the browser. (in the mean time tell me what other apps have the same black on black problem.)
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] tnez:
browser, mms, contacts thats the only ones I came across. I assume that any app that has a "more" option after pressing the soft menu key will have a black on black issue. I think the framework and twframework brings all those texts as black
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] tnez:
kind of liked that feature...was it causing issues? just wondering but no biggie
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
What do you mean? your "old" dialer should look like the link i posted. The updated version doesnt have the pictures because i dont like how it sticks out like that.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] davey11:
Sorry, after a closer look, I see what you mean. I need to LOOK close next time.

OP updated with a framework patch to fix the secondary menu's. Also version 1.5 was added, which is the full theme with the dialer/phone patch and framework patch already included. If you are already on version 1.0 you do not need to flash v1.5, but only the patches.

Updated menu's:
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] DoobiHowserMD:
Tried to update with the patches, dialer patch worked great, but the framework patch didn't work, had to pull batt and go into recovery and reflash V.1 and now I have no lockscreen at all. Going to reflash Black Hole and see if it helps.

Relfashed BlackHole and still no lockscreens?? Idk what happened, but this is pretty weird. Everything elses seems to be working fine.

Edit: HOme button no longer works either.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
I think you must have just gotten a bad flash or bad download... i flashed this patch myself with no problems. Maybe its because you were on blackhole. Download the 1.5 version of the theme and flash it.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] DoobiHowserMD:
Tried that, no go. Homescreen went black again this time. Still no lockscreens. Going to try another theme and see if it helps.

Date with Odin right now, had my GF call my phone and it force closed after first ring, don't know what happened, but nothing would work. I'll flash 1.5 when phone is ready and hope it works.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Mujib@r:
This is one kick-butt theme!! Big thanks for porting it, funkbot! Major thanks especially to Crysis21 who made the theme to start with!!

One question. Is there a way to make the background for the "Contacts" tab in the dialer a little more opaque, like how you have the notification shade? It's kind of tough to read with a lighter wallpaper. Thanks for all your hard work!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] thefunkbot:
Dude actually, now i have had the time to look closer and i have found that an important part of the framework-res.apk is missing. I do not know how in hell my phone is not FCing when i flash it, but i am very sorry and i have uploaded a fixed version of the 1.5 theme. I also have removed all patches to get rid of any confusion. Anyone who wants the patch is going to have to flash the whole theme again with v1.5
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] DoobiHowserMD:
No worries, I'm responsible for my own phone. It def makes me feel better about flashing other themes again though. I had to odin back to stock and then use Gizmo's instructions for a fresh install. I am going to flash the new 1.5 now since I love this theme. Thanks again!

**Works great**
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] jmuscat2:
When I go to the dialer and select favorites - the names are black letters against against a black background. Any way to change the letters to a different color? The frequent list is blue against black it is just the favorites that is black on black. Great theme though thanks for the work.

Running EC01 with the version 1.5 theme installed.
