I'm not sure if someone has already complained,but the color of the keyboard is not very well chosen. On daylight I cannot see anything. At least letters should be darker or something.
[Android Themes] kevin2516:
I agree with the keyboard, also can the date and time colour on the status bar be changed back to white, or has it already been changed? i don't really like seeing purple xD
[Android Themes] Kameirus:
ok have a slight problem related to theme chooser

i tried to install the themechooser apk from the op but it acts like its going to install then says not installed and it deletes the themechooser that i have ...any ideas how to fix this

EDIT.... fixed it with a complete wipe since i had to update to a larger partition size
[Android Themes] moneymike55:
I updated the op last night (fell asleep writing this post actually ;) and put up the correct links for bkmos zipthemer file and the theme Chooser apk. I also put together a single zip file with bk's mods, jj's dock/widget icons, 5-10 honeycomb wallpapers, all stock hc app icons, the 3.0 music player, a bootanimation with a utility app for quickly switching animations, maxthon browser (similar to 3.0 browser), and even a battery calibration tool that is my best friend during daily rom installs because I never seem to time my flashes at 100% :D Might b a few more things but I just woke up and realized my phone was on my chest with this msg still half written from last night so I'm goin back to sleep lol.

We've barely started on the honeycomb keyboard and text color/font so don't worry guys. The 3.0 layout and buttons were actually one of the main things I wanted to add next, but with all the remaining issues on hdpi the KB will have to come later. To be completely honest I'm actually not a huge fan of purple myself, but that was one of zc's first attempts at changing the stock text color while working on 100 other more important issues, and in my opinion it looks a lot better than the original white or black. I think it would look a little bit more like the actual honeycomb clock and text though if it was a little larger and we were able to make it a silver color with a light blue/purple tint and the clocktopia font. But that all has to do with xml redirections which is zexcrazy's area of expertise, so until he has time or feels like changing it (or i get apktool working on windows) the text will have to remain purple until we have the framework complete and .9s/widgets fully patched for hdpi. This theme is still very early in development and we are gradually fixing things as we come across them. And I just realized one of the lockscreen widget toggles I added still has a white background (didn't really turn out the way I hoped either but I think I should've just used the bright white one from the actual lockscreen instead of trying to make one myself) and I don't like the purple in the uncharging battery icons from 10-15% so they'll be fixed or removed in the next update.

Good to see you around btw jjhiza! U should check out the latest update and bkmo's new zipthemer mods ;) How is the transfer going?

Edit: WOW just got a throttle text for using 5gb this month. I freaking love 56k data speeds. Looks like I'm not uploading anything until my billing cycle ends tomorrow night :/ This is the last straw tmobile.
[Android Themes] bkmo:
Can't please everybody I guess. :) I don't like the purple either. I like the grey color, or a greyish white.

I am compiling now with a slightly honeycomb tinted white. And trying to go up to 16 font from 14 :)

Yup......I like it. :) It is a tad bit blueish/purplish white on the phone. Screenshot looks lighter and whiter.

@Mike, @kevin2516, so what do you think?
[Android Themes] jtadak:
Great theme. Only question is, is there a way to port the foating slyle lockscreen tab like in the 3.0 rom? Its not a regular slider, you have to move the unlock button into an open circle to unlock the screen. Does that make sense? Anybody know what I'm talking about?
[Android Themes] partner22:
Great theme.

I only miss the soft buttons for the tablet tweaks. I read that you are going to include it. I don't know too much about theming, but if you need testers count on me.

[Android Themes] moneymike55:
Ok here's screenshots and a video preview for some of the honeycomb features I have in mind so u can get a better idea of what we're aiming for with the xml ports and mock Widgets. Don't know if the real thing will be possible to port but the freemoving honeycomb wave style lockscreen is the mod I want most too, and I'd like to get the rest of the UI as close as possible to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RKEHfOwnSI

We actually could really use another tester on hdpi if you're interested :)
[Android Themes] jtadak:
Dang! That would be sweet!
[Android Themes] zexcrazy:
Mike im going to try make that keyboard now. I dont like this one either.
[Android Themes] Futur Innovations:
I really like this theme. Only I wish it was more blue than purple. Lol. I would like to be a beta tester for moneymikes mod/version/theme
[Android Themes] moneymike55:
Man if you can figure out something similar to the keyboard button colors and layout from the youtube video it would look awesome zexcrazy (same keys from the screenshots, but in the port kb im pretty sure theres another row and looks sick ;), I like our current top bar for the suggestions but the keys would look way better as the ones from the 3.0 port I sent ya last week. I think those guys were talking about the purple pop-up letters tho, and I'm really not sure if it would be possible to make the clock as big or the same font/color as the actual honeycomb one, but a few of those screenshots came from the 3.0 port or other hc themes, and if we could even get close to the silver blue clocktopia font with the text it would improve the whole look of the theme. What do u think about the dual toned settings menu backgrounds?

It's a shame, but afaik vega is MDPI

Anyway to make a pink theme exactly like this? My girl saw this running on my phone and asked if there was a complete theme like this but pink.
[Android Themes] moneymike55:
I've actually been thinking about replacing all of the blue icons with their original colors soon after the general framework is complete for the apk, and then release a couple more of the colored versions like red or green with the current theme being the future blue version. Actually now that I think about it, if you've been following my progress from a few months ago on Yoshi's thread this theme was originally all different colors and I've only been coloring things to blue after finally posting this thread and ppl started saying some of the icons didn't match or make sense :/ So I could probably cook up a pink version while im at it, Ive gotten pretty quick at recoloring them but its kinda been making life hard on myself and the rest of the team by selecting each icon individually from random places and then recoloring the ones i like to blue rather than just finding an icon pack or aosp and swapping them in. The colors produced by the program I use are hard to replicate on other image editors, and after i started coloring a few the colors for some of the others didnt match up so i had to do at least 500 icons so far (and most of them 2-3 times because I started doing them cyan before going to dark blue and eventually blue with a purple-silver glow like they are now lol) but im sure there's still plenty ppl who dont like all the blue just like others arent very fond of the purple, so I think a full colored version would make the theme less of my own personal preference and then ppl can decide between the regular version or one with all blue/purple/red/etc icons.. I think things would probably look more uniform for hdpi if I just added the same old icons from gingerbread or uot and recolored them to one shade of blue, but I hate stock rom icons and theres way too many themes currently using them or the packs from uot, so overall I think the theme is a lot more unique with individually selected icons, but the coloring narrows down the number of ppl who will use it. And it also makes a few of the icons appear a little distorted on higher resolution screens, like the sound settings icon someone mentioned a few pages ago (which I spent 3 hours recoloring each pixel from orange to blue, but that was one of the first ones I did by hand which is why it took so long and still didn't turn out right lol). Do you guys like the blue menu and status/notification icons it do u think it would be worth my time to change them back to their original colors?
[Android Themes] Maltz:
I want it, but i have a hdpi phone
[Android Themes] EJerVJerO:
Sounds good just nothing as complete like this for females. She was even impressed when she saw it.
[Android Themes] everest.deth:
MT4G is hdpi aswell and it looks great on my end. Hoping the icons on settings get better but from there on its great. http://db.tt/gOtNV07
[Android Themes] moneymike55:
Hey Everest thanks for the hdpi feedback sir! And im glad u guys like it EjerVjerO, ill see what I can do with that pink version soon ;)

Do all the settings icons look kinda fuzzy on hdpi or just a few? I think the issue is because we had enlarged them from 32x32 to 48x48 in v1 before going back to 32 in v2, and every single icon I've tried adding so far that needed to be enlarged to fit didn't turn out good so I couldn't use any of them. Its just a lot harder to tell on mdpi because the resolution and screen size suck already. A lot of the issues ppl have brought to my attention for hdpi (except needing to scroll to see the text for some of the popups) look the exact same on mdpi but its not as easy to tell which ones are still low-res. You guys and your damn high density screens :D They'll all be fixed soon, just be specific about which ones look distorted and ill replace as many that are reported as possible for each release. I need to set up a bug tracker page soon :/ AND that changelog I've been promising... just been busy setting up the important stuff with zexcrazy and bkmo (like the xml, patches, compiling with preview pic, and hdpi files) while adding as many new things to each release as possible, but once the basic theme is fully set up all that will be left is the fun stuff (redirections and addons for the hc mods and Widgets). And thats actually not too far off thanks to all of the compiling and patches zc and bk have been knocking out all week :D
[Android Themes] fashoughing:
I've noticed that my charging icon changes back n fourth to the bolt then next time I charge, possibly after a reboot maybe it goes to a plug n icon. Is it supposed to only stay one charging icon? I noticed on few versions it does it each time. Is there gunna be a fix for that or does it supposed to do that?
[Android Themes] moneymike55:
I actually added the old battery icons from 0-15% and the new hc ones for the rest. Thought that would add a nice effect for when the battery was low, I really like those ones so now I almost look forward to my battery dying LOL. But they're from uot, so they'll become theme whores soon just like the hc battery ;) Which charging icon do u like better, and do u guys think it should be the same from 0-100% or do u like how it switches at 15?
[Android Themes] fashoughing:
I personally like the plug icon when it charges. But the rings that change when it gets low is pretty cool, I like that part to lol
[Android Themes] bkmo:
I wonder what would happen if we upsize the settings icons to HDPI size and put them in a drawable-hdpi folder. Will try that when I get a chance.
[Android Themes] moneymike55:
I was thinking that too BK, the weird part was when we enlarged them to 48, it looked kinda big on mdpi but ppl on hdpi were saying they looked kinda big on hdpi too so me an zc have been thinking maybe 38-40 would look better on both devices. 32 seems a little bit too small even on the older phones so I bet on hdpi they really look too small now. I didn't even think about that :/

@Everest hey were you talking about the setting ls menu resolution or size (or a little of both)? I know some if the icons need to be replaced but I have no idea how small the icons are for hdpi on 2.2.5 :( I hate to keep asking this but if someone on hdpi can take a screenshot of the settings menu it would help out a lot so we can get a better idea of how much they need to be resized
[Android Themes] kevin2516:
It should be fine if its 48x48 in drawable-hdpi and 32x32 in drawable-mdpi.

Also in 2.2.5, the status bar pulldown bar is still too big, the popup menus and toast frame are small still, have you guys fixed that yet?
[Android Themes] bkmo:
I did my usual up-size by 33% and wound up with 43. They don't look real crisp from the beginning though, so maybe that is why people say they look fuzzy. Ill up it in a few to have an HDPI user test. It will install seperately as Honeycomb 3D-1. Hey ZC if you see this can you send me any new 9 patch images you may have?
[Android Themes] bkmo:
Can you try the attached test theme to see how your settings icons look? It will install as a seperate theme.
[Android Themes] kevin2516:
Ok now i see why the status bars are too big, you haven't resized from 480w to 320w.
[Android Themes] elroy944:
ive got a desire z, if i can help with anything just let me know :)
[Android Themes] bkmo:
Yeah..they are 480, has anyone figured out resizing 9 patch images while keeping the 1pixel border intact? I can open an image in Gimp and mod everything inside the 1 pixel border, save it, and it will compile ok. But when resizing it it will not compile.
[Android Themes] kevin2516:
Open the decompiled .9 PNG in Photoshop, resize, delete all the black .9 patching and any weird shadows you get from the resizing, and redraw the patching in Photoshop and save.

Sent from your nearest toilet
[Android Themes] moneymike55:
thanks for the report kevin, those are actually the exact things we are currently working on :) Bk told me yesterday that zc had done the toast frame and more of the popup boxes but was still patching a few cuz I took too long with the pulldown bar and the image for the preview, so instead of 2.3, we put out bkmo's newly compiled apk with working preview pic for the ppl who were tired of dealing with the new theme Chooser, changed battery color (and icons from 0-15%), unpatched "preview" of pulldown bar, resized an enlarged icon in the dialer topbar for contact list, and to give us more time with all the other things are working on right now- settings menu icon sizes, pulldown bar, recolor like 10 battery images, font color, new keyboard buttons, add missing menu icons to zipthemer, and patching the remaining popups and menus 9.pngs which are the worst part about themeing. At least for me because my sdk environment must be set up incorrectly for apktool to work properly or I'm just doing something wrong when decompiling... and I'm sure zc is getting tired of me asking him to do one after another by now :/ Can i just use gimp or that .9patch tool from xda (forgot the name) to redraw the 1 pixel border or does apktool have to be used to metadata/compile? I should be able to get it working but for some reason it only decompiles like a quarter of the theme ...

Hopefully there arent too many issues for u guys with hdpi still but its definitely being worked and should be out in the next few weeks. Unless anyone who knows how to patch or code wants to jump on board to help us out with the files for hdpi...or pm me a detailed list of any remaining bugs on hdpi when v2.3 is ready ;)

Edit: Ay nice job with the fixed menu icons BK! Was just reading through the last page and realized you posted while I was typing this. What size did u go with? And has anybody tried it yet?? Hopefully that's one step closer to perfection but ill probably still need to replace them with original ones resized the same so any ones that turned out blurred from previously enlarging are fixed :)

juss looking through. you got the music right my friend

Rockin' RoyalGinger 2.0

"Oh you haven't flashed it yet? Laggin' bro!"
[Android Themes] moneymike55:
Ok... so my phone was running low on memory and stopped showing certain parts of the theme (I'm on an old test rom that does that after running 12+ hours so dont worry its not theme related lol. Luckily Yoshi has a new beta out for us, I just haven't had time to flash it yet :/ But back to the story...) ..so one of the things that wasn't showing was that pulldown bar and the whole notification tab looked 1000 times better with it gone. WAY more professional looking, I think the current one may be too cartoonish compared to the rest of the notification slider and the overall theme. I'm gonna work on a new transparent one using the bar for the "notification" title background I think. Still need to decide what to put in the middle of it tho. Im thinking maybe honeybee android like how cm6 had their logo in the middle of the stock pulldown bar. But it could also look kinda dumb by itself so let me know if u guys have any ideas! How about one of the honeycomb dock icons? Like the one on the far left in the screenshots but rotated to the right 90° ... with the honeybee in the middle.. hmmm actually rotated to the left 90 instead so the bee stinger fits in inside the triangle and the antennas go towards the top m shape... maybe not actually. Any suggestions??
[Android Themes] PUERTO_RUK:
Moneymike, is there anyway that you can port this over for NON CM7 devices? I've got the DX and will NEVER see CM until they unlock the bootloader or I get another phone. This theme is CRACK!!! I'll gladly donate for something like this!
[Android Themes] moneymike55:
Hey thanks man glad to hear u like it, but that really sucks about the locked bootloader :/ I actually could put most of this into a zipthemer/metamorph file like older themes, but it would take ages because I would have to change the name of every single icon (800+ pngs) so that it doesn't have the prefix "frameworks_Res" or "com_android" AND all if the xmls... I really want you to be able to run the theme on your phone but because of the way we had to name each icon for the theme Chooser I'm not sure if it would still work with the new prefixs and that would take some time :( actually come to think of it, I'm pretty sure gimp has a batch rename option... ill give it a try as soon as I'm done with these essays for school tonight, I have a lot of the files with their original names from when I was making update.zips for Ginger Yoshi, so if the renaming takes a while maybe I can send u a lite version while I'm working on the xml :)
[Android Themes] bkmo:
My resizing command:

for i in `ls | grep png`; do convert -resize 66% $i $i; done

my stripping of prefixes command:

for i in framework*.*; do mv "$i" "${i##frameworks_res_}"; done

now do that in windows. :) 2.3 with a few nice fixes coming up. I received some patched images from ZC, a couple didn't work so I repatched them. Looks better, but there is still a radio button off that is killing me. YOU GOT MAIL!
[Android Themes] moneymike55:
damn u windows

yoo sorry bk i just saw the msg- gonna dl right now and see what u were talking about for those patches. I have a better idea for the pulldown bar than the one I mentioned last night too so if i can get it right ill send it your way to see what ya think. As for those commands, you would laugh if u saw what i have to do on windows...

Renaming- I Put all of the icons i want in one folder and all the ones I'm replacing in another. Then with one folder open on my laptop screen and the other on my monitor, I copy the name of the original theme icon and paste it into the new icon name (unless I get lucky and the new ones already have the name same just without the prefix, in which case I write the first one in and just copy and paste it to each of the others). After that i just go through the new folder and make sure everything is the correct name and size.

For resizing- I open one image in microsoft office picture manager and then ctrl+right click each icon that needs to be changed, and then go to the resizing tab and if the image was already square it will take it down to an equal ratio like 32x32. If it was originally like 54x48 I have a problem tho, because it will go to either 38x32 or 32x26, so i use gimp to crop them or just create a new image. Gimp works good for transparency, color and renaming too but i usually use the msft picture manager to change the saturation, hue, midtone and brightness and then use a correcting tool to add back in the original whites or blacks. So its kindof a ***** but only because I suck at commands and dont have photoshop lol, and Ive been getting a lot quicker by now so its not too bad, really just a matter of creating the pngs and matching them with the theme at this point.
[Android Themes] zexcrazy:
Mike i'm using total comander for renaming. There is a option i file menu called multi rename tool. You need to select images you want to edit and go there and just add text you want.

Anyway, i have made some progress on new keyboard, but cant send it to you now coz i'm not at home
[Android Themes] bkmo:
2.3, mostly fixes

Here is a 2.3 that has some image sizing fixes, market looks good now, XDA and Dolphin Mini added. Statusbar pulldown close changed up a bit (for now). This is just to fix some issues while we work on HDPI, and making it look even Hotter! Let us know if there are any glitches to kill.

ZC....Pulling the template I made from decompiling into Hax's template makes it compile without a classes.dex issue...and much faster. Yippee
[Android Themes] everest.deth:
Looks great, the settings icons improved but still a little washed out/ blurry :)

Also, not sure if its only my vision of it but i think the icons ok the top of the dialer look a bit washed out aswell (for call log, faves etc)http://db.tt/M14HEtRhttp://db.tt/RXTn4ka

Thanks for putting so much time to this guys :D
[Android Themes] bkmo:

@the op and all who contributed to this theme. BIG THANKS. Running this on a Htc Sprint hero. Running Aosp's gb 4/29 build. And everything is working flawless and looks great. The mooded lock screen and animation are real smooth. Thanks for this. Looking forward to all the updates you put out.
