guys this the theme changer app for quick replacement of your framework-res and twframework-res, created by me and here's the link:

v1.0

v1.1

v1.2 (Latest)

theme changer v1.2

change log:

-added preview facility

theme changer v1.1

change log:

-added system apps exchanger (to REPLACE your normal apps with themed apps)! + backup for replaced apps

-can be used to ADD new apps to system/app

-Display list of replaced apks in current session!

-improved ui experience! file manager remembers your last location of selection for that session, so next time you directly jump over there without navigating!

-support for android.policy.jar (if u select this then it will take some more time to reboot, so don't panic)!

-Added safety! won't allow u to reboot unless u select both frameworks file!

NOTE:

-do one by one! i.e first select all system apps! n then go to theme changer window n select framework n apply theme! that will be fast n easy! everything in one reboot!

- when u change system apps! go easy on it! give some time (a sec or two) before selecting next file!

theme changer v1.0

Salient features:

-Freedom from ADB n its command to change theme!

-Backup Facility

-inbuilt filemanager

-One Touch Operation!

-Auto Reboot!

PS: plz don't press back when navigating through file manager! use the "parent directory" option if u need to go one stage up! back key will exit file manager!

PPS: after changing theme copy your backed up theme files to some other folder! otherwise it will be over written every time u change theme!

PPPS: Please ensure that you have atleast about 9mb of free space in your system folder. Otherwise it may lead to soft brick!

PPPPS: ask for my permission before incorporating/distributing my app in your custom rom!

Awesome work!

worked smoothly!

Do i have permission to integrate this app in indroid and Apocalypse?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] insane_subro:
Awsome work man! some screen shots please!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
Yes you can integrate this app in indroid and apocalypse
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Vishnu N S:
Thanks for this Neel !! BTW, could you explain how you did this..??!!! :D This is our device specific apk right ?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
I haven't got a chance to test on other devices!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Rapier07:
This is insane ! Awesome job bro !
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] unrender:
Awesome work!

It would be great to add an option like 'add path to app' to import also themed applications...

Is it possible ?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
yes, i'll incorporate it in the next version!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] cdesai:
Works gr8 man

keep it up

and btw

can i use this app in galactic blue?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] unrender:
hum... just a question...

is it obliged to reboot for applying the new theme ?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
yes you can use it in galactic blue!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
yes, reboot is necessary to apply changes!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] unrender:
okay.

thanks for your answer and your rapidity ;)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] OrrPenn18:
Neel Bro!!! and ur friend...Hats-Off!!!!! :D ;)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] unrender:
If I can allow myself a suggestion.

You should keep in memory the path selected for framework-res and use it when you click on 'select file' for adding path to twframework-res.

Indeed, both files are generally in the same place....

Hi, strange fortune: I made a simple ThemeChanger myself and just posted it today: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1047433 :D

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] deadwood01:
Do I lose any space in /system....? Can I have a new theme eveyday....?:)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
well you don't actually loose space in system coz your previous framework files are just being replaced by new one!

and

yes you can have a new theme everyday! just make sure that the theme you use is ported for galaxy 3 and not for other device!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] i_rnb:
an awesome work..!! keep it up .. :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] cdesai:
Thanks man its really a great app

Btw can you also add androidpolicy.jar

Its usually on the same place as framework if the theme has it!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
ok suggestion taken! will be implemented in v1.1
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] fruitygaki:
It's just awesome for all guys like me whose hate stay with the same theme more than one week! thank you for this work!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] :
Perhaps make it open source so we can help you improving it. Also preview pics would be a great feature with a folder structure like this:

-> SD Card

-> ThemeChanger

-> Theme Red

framework-res.apk

twframework.apk

screenshot.png

-> Theme Blue

framework-res.apk

twframework.apk

so perhaps we could work together if you are interested :P
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
thanx brother! i appreciate it! but my friend and i will be working on it together!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] :
Ok np less work form me :P
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] rockingsa1991:
Awesome!

Woah dude! Your v1.1 is AWFSOME!! Loved it. And it worked so smoothly for all operations.

THANKS A TON DUDE! You and your friend rock! :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] unrender:
Some ideas of modifications for the v1.2 :)

- Download of the themes since a server. The themes would be put on this server with the agreement of the person which created them

- Nothing to do with the themes, but possibility of adding a function to change the bootanimation? If it is possible, it would be good to make as for the previous idea: download from a server

- I take back the idea of the_one_ concerning pictures to see what that gives, it would be cool.

In any case, very beautiful job!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
thank u!! :)

well for the next verson

-support for bootanimation

-theme preview

regarding that server thing! i have to think about it!!

eta: will take quite a long time!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] unrender:
I think so.

It's not a problem, you make a good job. We can wait:)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] unrender:
for system apps exchanger, it would be great to select just a path and exchange all the apps in this path instead of exchanging apps one by one :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] askashish:
@neeljinwala

can i use your app in my rom :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
yes.. you can use it your sumee rom..!! :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] only4omkar:
**** ! I soft bricked my phone . I applied this gingy theme via theme changer .apk .

I did not have 9 mb free space in system . Now the phone is not booting wat do i do ??

Reflash ??
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
well you can try pushing back your previous firmware files using adb or qadb to recover. search on google or xda forum on how to do that. if can't then reflash.. next time take care that you have enough memory in system! :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] rockingsa1991:
Naicee! I just tried it out on Galaxy Fit. And it works perfectly. I like portable software :) :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] arunmcops:
Great app dude... Flawless... Just add one more feature to check system space before changing theme. If a minimum of 9mb not found it should stop the process. It will be good for new users.. :)

InDroid 4.0 (Build 6)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Panos_dm:
I have kyrillo's v.3 and the app doesn't work. Everytime I choose the correct files, hit apply, then it reboots but the theme remains unchanged...

So root it and try using this app

Nice work, can I integrate it in Psychotik ?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] kaman237:
Thank you. I will test it today.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] p_san_p:
Nice app but it worked only once on kyrilos 5.0.. now if m trying to do change theme using this app it simply reboots without any change.. plz help :(
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] kaman237:
I don't know what happened. For me it's working great.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
simply reboot may be due to lack of space in system folder hence copy operation may not be performed properly. try free-ing up some space. hope it may help!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] geo88pafos:
Thnx mate excellent application
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] luckyankit:
I guess you guys now release a global version of this application and it may not remain exclusive to Indroid only....!! Will you??
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] rudolf895:
well the theme changer is global..

We'll see what can be done in near future about the other apps...
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] pflorin:
so your app is backing up the orginal framewrk automatically before changing it and then reboot??
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] rudolf895:
sorry for answering neels' question but yeah that is what it does..

it takes a back up of old framework in a folder.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] MaArCiN074:
Good app.

Works really nice. Thanks :)
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] V!KR@M:
The options in 1.1 has been removed in 1.2.

1) There is no option in 1.2 to add android.policy.jar wich was there in 1.1

2) There is no system app changer option in 1.2 which was there in 1.1
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
Firstly, This app was made proprietary for InDroid Rom only but i am releasing because of number of user requests..

1. so android.policy.jar has been removed since the rom itself has the new one...

2. system apps changer was posing some problem...

If you people WANT system app ex-changer i can work on it may be a separate app... or else i'll drop that functionality.

upto u!..
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] V!KR@M:
Ok no problm. 1.2 is fine
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] alen1901:
not working

well.. i tried theme changer on my galaxy 3 aaand it didn't work. it simply "apply" theme and reboot without changes.. i have 31mb free of internal mobile memory, so that shouldn't be a problem at all. any suggestions, solutions??

i have official froyo 2.2, XXJPQ.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
may be because u r using the theme whose framework is based on jpm and u are trying to apply it on JPQ!!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] V!KR@M:
so cant we apply any of the jpm themes on jpq using theme changer or manually??:eek::eek:

im on kyrillos v6 which is based on jpq....
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] longlong240:
Help!!

I can't install ThemeChanger.apk on my Galaxy 3 Android 2.1, It said some problems with the package, please help :)

I can't post a link....
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] alen1901:
well, it might be that. i didn't knew. but i installed some other program, and i could apply theme, and i think it's based on jpm. but that shouldn't be a problem because these are only xml files and pictures that are replaced. all is the same in jpm and jpq. framework-res.apk. as i found out.

EDIT: sorry, i mixed up something, i was modifying jpq firmware-res, and theme changer didn't work.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] longlong240:
Help again ;P

do this work with Kyrillos' ROM?:confused:
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] rudolf895:
they work with all froyo roms.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] neeljinwala:
it will run on 2.2+ devices.. not sure of 2.3 bt should on 2.2!
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] Drollo85:
Im' running Destiny 1.3 and themechanger doesn't work.
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] hadi_xman:

[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] longlong240:
You mean i can use all the theme in "Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps"?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] cfrek:
not working for me it asks me to choose a file and the screen shows a paint pallet and the phone just restarts without any effect

Can i use this app in my upcoming rom name--jetrox

plz reply fast
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] cfrek:
Awesome app but the app replacement is not working for me
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] cfrek:
I rE installed the app everything is working fine.now
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] DaBigFreak:
Nice app, can you just write down in your first post, what folder-system is needed?

/sdcard/themechanger/

/Theme1/ apk , apk

/Theme2/ apk , apk

or

/theme1.zip

or

/theme1/theme1.zip

And what about the other apps that are sometimes ported and edited? Are they installed too? Some themes must be installed via CWM, can this app handle this too?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] cdesai:
The folder structure is

/sdcard/tgemechanger/theme name

framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk and preview.png are supported

Preview.png is the preview image you want to display
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] DaBigFreak:
And what about the other apps?

Most there is:

/system/app/Dialer, mms, settings

/system/framework/twframew, framew

Cause if in a theme, there is the first line existing, it would be copied by your app to /system/framework not to /system/app, right?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] cdesai:
Dont get confused!

v1.2 will only use files i told and will just copy framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk

Apps can't be added/replaced for now

Place like i said and it'll go fine

Download InDroid theme pack for example - and loads of themes :D

And yea this app isnt made by me but by neeljinwala!

Nice Job! Thanks!

Theme Chooser

What is the difference between this and the Sprint Theme Chooser?

You would still need to be on a rom other then stock, right?
[Galaxy 3 Themes and Apps] twinky444:
The difference between this is the fact that this app is for the Samsung Galaxy 3 GT-I5800, but the themechooser you mentioned is used in your Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300. Got it? Stop posting in wrong forums, S3 users!

Thanks for understanding.

I flashed Cotinuum 5 with new bootloader.

I have 3 question, please answer for me.

1. When i want back to stock, i can use Odin One Click Downloader v1.0? It's OK?

2. Odin One Click Downloader v1.0 will replace with old bootloader or bootloader have no change?

3. Odin One Click Downloader v1.0 have included 3buttonfix?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
what did the continuum instructions say? read them again.

it answers all 3 questions in RED
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majinzen:
I would stop using the one click odin now. If you're on Continuum 5, you have the full version of odin. Use that with a jh7.tar in the pda slot to go back to stock 2.1. That way you won't have to worry. The one floating around here doesn't have bootloaders. Don't mess with bootloaders unless you have to.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
corrected...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
As I said on other threads this issue is going to be a brickathon
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majinzen:
Umm... Dude... calm down. I don't give advice without testing first.

1. You can use the i9000 gingerbread bootloaders in froyo. I tried Continuum and a few i9000 gingerbread roms last night. Now I'm back on 2.2 kb1 rom because I was just testing. STILL USING THE SAME BOOTLOADERS!!! I know because there is that annoying i9000 slash screen before the Att screen. Plus, I did not go back to stock. I just re-flashed my old rom.

2.Don't just start accusing people of things. Have you tried gingerbread? Have you gone back to stock? You should probably get your facts straight before handing out false allegations.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
By what I am reading you are in fact wrong as well. If you flashed the gingerbread boot loader do not use one click. From thread:

!!!!!WARNING!!!!! DO NOT USE THIS METHOD IF YOU ALREADY UPDATED YOUR BOOTLOADERS TO i9000 GINGERBREAD ONES!!! Chances of bricking are 99% because this method flashes only secondary bootloader and the phone wont boot with primary i9000 bootloader and secondary i897 bootloader.

3. Reboot your phone in recovery
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
yes i did but i followed instructions

what he meant by

the "this method" is talking about the 3 button fix method.

AND YES DO NOT FLASH OVER GINGERBREAD - it only has 1 of 2 bootloaders! = brick

UNLESS YOU FLASH ONE CLICK FIRST - has BOTH bootloaders = no brick!

try quoting the

WHOLE QUOTE

it reads accurately, and ill add a couple words to make it read even better!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
nevermind.... read last post

Odin one click does not flash primary boot loader
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
screw it, i was trying to keep it simple and TO THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE NOOB with 1 post

i fu###ing give up!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majinzen:
I don't really care man. I can follow directions too, but I can also make decisions on my own. I know for a fact you do not need to change bootloaders to go back to stock. You just can't use the primary from 2.3 and the secondary from 2.1. That will brick your phone. But whatever, I have better things to do than argue with you.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
I respect what you were trying to do, but odin one click would be a.disaster if you already changed to the ginger bread boot loader
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majinzen:
Man... it's ok... There's too much angst on Xda these days.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
agreed......
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majinzen:
I'm just saying don't mess with bootloaders unless you have to. Our phones will boot with the i9000 bootloaders. For a noob, I think it would be better not to confuse him with "you can use this one-click, but not the other one-click because, it only contains the secondary bootloader". Thats why I suggested the jh7 with no bootloaders via the Odin that came with Continuum. Plus, later when the gingerbread roms get more polished, he can go back with minimal hassle.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
odin one click worked fine for me......:rolleyes:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majinzen:
Hey Pirateghost, did DG's one-click restore i897 bootloaders? I'm sick of the i9000 splash screen and want to get rid of it. But I'm too lazy to flash unless I know it works.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Ok well then I apologize

As asked, do you still have i9000 splash
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
Nope. ATT world phone screen, followed by ATT 3g animation followed by Samsung galaxy s boot animation. Just like stock

Sent from my HTC Vision
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
and to clearify majinzen

there is only one " Odin3 One Click Downloader"

the other odin is " Odin3 Flashing Utility " used with 3 button and rogers/other stocks

Odin3 flashing util is at version 1.82 with bootloader flashing options now.

you said above about its confusing to use this "one click" but not the "other one" click,

this should clear up your confusion, one of those is not "one click"
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majinzen:
I'd still go with the no bootloader versions. ;) Though, I really can't stand the splash screen so I may eventually use it. Everyone calls the other one one-click too so hence the confusion. I always use the full version of Odin. Seriously though, our phones do work with i9000 bootloaders, so why bother except for aesthetics.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
at least its not AT&T boot.... ew...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majinzen:
Unfortunately, we get both. i9000 first and then Att.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Ok so that I have it correct and do not continue to say stupid things, which is safe odin 3 because you are including the boot loader or i897ucjf6-final
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
well for "odin3 flasher" HEY THAT'S A GOOD EASY NAME!!

for the regular Odin that now has boot-loader option....

we dont have boot-loader files yet, im working on that for my Rogers Stock rom thread.

with help of pirateghost!! you are my savior today

so cant flash separately

yet...

so you can either stick with i9000 boot-loaders and not flash them back - "Odin flasher" - no 3 button fix! use other stock without bootloader

or you can flash back to original boot-loaders with "Odin one click"
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
"Odin flasher" is that a creepy middle aged norse god in a trench coat that exposes himself?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nccong85:
I readed through all answears.

I knows that Odin 1-Click can reverts to stock with no problems.

(for my case)

But now, i still wonder how what is primary bootloader and secondary bootloader.

Can explain for me ?
