[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] rocketpaul:
Good stuff! this maybe the sgs2 first xda theme:)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] risq:
Good stuff,

Get some screenshots up of what you've managed so far, and I'll get to work on getting you the APK's ;)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
If you want screens, click on my sig, its basicly the theme from my rom, but without AOSP, Extended power and overscroll. Some things may turn out different, still making some stuff
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
Theme is up, ENJOY!!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AdamZA:
Please could you also share your wallpaper? :)

Is it possible to use the UOT Kitchen with the SGS II by removing the framework and systemUI apks from the system dump in the development section?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
You can use UOT, I used it for a couple of the mods on this, only reccomendation is to pull the apk's from your phone as the system dump is from an older pre-release software
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] DocRambone:
Nice work :)

One q: did u really have transparent statusbar on this rom?, i been trying to get this without luck.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
Alright DOC! I know its off topic, but please tell me you are bringing rom kitchen to SGS II I love it :P

EDIT: Just looked at the site

And as for transparent statusbar, my flawless technique for getting it working is UOT kitchen. it just works! I tried manually and failed, but it is transparent, well translucent if u wanna be picky :P
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] risq:
Would be good to have the old TV box effect on lock - i thought I saw it in an earlier version. Has it been removed from this one?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
Adding CRT Off anim now, sry bout that, totaly forgot
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] kersey:
Can i just copy your Framework-res.apk over the existing one on my phone using root explorer instead of using Adb??
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
should be able to yeh, just suggested adb as its a free method.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
CRT Off animation added for locking the screen...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] DocRambone:
Yes, sgs 2 will be in kitchen, most base work finished, need a cw recovery th.

Tried the UOT kitchen, but still no go for transparency...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
Ermm.. thats how I did it so i dunno.

try using this theme and editing the png's. I dont care if you use it ;P
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] extrememonkey:
How easy is it to go back to original from this theme???

Also whay do you do with the framework-res_0.zip - just rename it to framework-res.apk ????
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] lgkahn:
how does this work becuase the system apps have .odex files.. dont you have to remove this first.. adb push will not remove them?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
Don't know what happened there, the file I uploaded was framework-res.apk?? Il reupload

EDIT: Turns out mirror creator renames the file if there is already a file uploaded with the same name. You'll have to rename it, sorry
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
Nope, works with the old odex, just leave it there and replace the apk, still works fine for me
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] lgkahn:
thanks working good. for now left odex files till i know if i can delete them..

can i put in a request for a transparent status bar as well as the transparant notification thanks.

(ie the bar with the icons is not tranparant on mine or maybe it is just the version of touchwiz on the phone but the live wallpapers dont go up and the bar is still black)

i also noticed one other problem on popup windows asking for information

any but try vpn or bluetooth/device name etc.. the window is slightly too small and the buttons on the bottom are slightly cut off by the window.. this was not like this with stock framework etc.

thanks

did you also change the resolution or something e other screen stuff is also screwed up. ie beautifull weather is not laying out right and putting the date on top instead of under the town and now not centering the weather and the time is too small compared to what it was?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
Will impliment that tonight.

As for the boxes that's due to the glow. I have noticed it but it doesn't bother me too much. I can delete the glow and do a glow free version aswell if u like
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] lgkahn:
i like the glow but that is not all because stuff is not laying out right on th screens i replaced the framework with the stock one. but left other apps.. and the menu issue is gone as you summized but the layout of beautifull widget it now correct.. like it was and like my sgs.. any ideas?

thanks for your work and would be great to get the transparent status bar..

as for the menus i dont mind them being cut off slightly also wih the green glow.. but the other layout issues is more troubling?

i can try a version without the green glow to see if it fixes the other layout issues?

also what also may be nice is that i used to have a framework that had multiple colors on the levels.. ie only 1 bar color is red.. 2 bars they are yellow and 3-full bars they are green.

same for wifi..
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
Sorry, not quite sure what u meant there. Do some boxes without the green glow have cut off edges or things out of shape. If so tell me and I'll have a look
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] lgkahn:
no only boxes with the green glow were cut off. but other stuff try beatiful weather widget.. with your framework the clock is tiny and the date shows up in the wrong location... almost like the resolution is set differently..

even more strange i reapplied the freamework res and rebooted and now the widget lays out correct.. maybe something was cached or something..?

i am using root explorer to copy the f/w

so unless i have other stranges things ignore those issues

only remaining issue is the buttons slightly cut off with boxes with green glow.. not a biggee..

thanks for the work and anxiously awaiting a transparent status bar if you can get that working.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
Ok, random error :s ermm... downloading potential transparent statusbar from UOT now, I do all transparent stuff with UOT

EDIT: Not working :(, I think this is what doc was on about before, I thought he meant notifications. I have tried 0% (fully transparent) and 10% just in case it couldnt deal with 0% but neither work. Gonna have to stay black for now guys. Till I figure out how to do it/
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] extrememonkey:
Is anyone else having a problem with the Settings screen???

When I apply all three files all I get in settings is a bunch of sliders, no text or anything else just a load of slider bars!!!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] UD`:
is it just me or is the CRT effect working on everything? Im seeing it whenever i open a app too..shouldnt it just be when the screen is turned off?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
I changed the animations to flip animations, thats what your seeing
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] UD`:
oh ok. Could you possibly upload a versions without the flip animations?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dh2311:
could do, easy solution is go to UOT kitchen, upload both files, go to animations section and select your prefered animation type
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sckc23:
Having exactly the same problem. gonna push the original settings.apk to see if it corrects back.

EDIT: converted back to original. wasn't too fond of the transition effect but thank you for your effort in creating the first ever SGSII theme=)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] BillSplate:
Looks really nice! I am looking forward to install this theme on my SGSII when I'll have it.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] UD`:
Well which animation is stock galaxy s 2 ? I dont think its in UOT
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] robot1000:
+1

Although it's a cool effect, it's giving me a headache
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Uvaavu:
Likewise. This theme minus the transition, but keeping the CRT effect, would be better.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] BlueScreenJunky:
Haha, the problem is everyone wants something different I think. As far as I'm concerned I'd like to have only the Greyscale Icons in the settings and power off menu and Gingerbread Statusbar Icons. But no transparency, no CRT off and keep the blue glow.

Does anyone know if/how I could do that ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] lgkahn:
any hope on getting a transparent status bar now that sgs ii sources have been released.. anyone look at the issue?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] FPRobber:
And I only want the CRT animations.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jeezus:
+1 Same here, only CRT, please.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] MrDeacon:
I'll chip in on the CRT too. To push our frameworks into UOT is an easy task, but I'll leave the rest to the pros. :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] nechmadi:
+2 on the crt ...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] risq:
any idea why my phone would be in a boot loop after applying this via root explorer? I tried via ADB but it was telling me it was read only, so went the root explorer root. Everything copied fine, rebooted and now it loads to homescreen, sits there for a bit then WHAM! Reboot - I backed up my original files, can anyone help me get it sorted?

Edit: Appears framework-res.apk sends my phone in a boot loop. I'm on KDF/KDJ/KDD

Gonna flash the generic UK firmware to see if this then works, as I presume this is what you're running.

If so, guess it means different mods for different versions and something has changed in framework-res which stops it from working, as i was running a newer release.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] risq:
Ok, it works fine on UK firmware....not the latest firmware release tho!! will force phone into a boot loop.

Great job with the theme, but as mentioned can we have a version without the flip effect.

I'm not sure if its conflicting with my ADW EX effect, but it doesnt flip on most windows, it kinda glitches to the side.

dropping this effect will be agreat improvement in my opinion, as right now it just looks broken.

Cheers,
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cmd512:
Weird, same issue with this theme as the "Ginger green" icon thread: Auto dimming loses it's ability to gradually dim and brighten. Instead, it instantly dims or brightens, kind of annoying...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] rafael000:
+3 on the CRT :D
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] MrDeacon:
With trans. effects on LPP things looked really weird.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jeezus:
For people wanting the only electron beam/CRT effect framework, just get apk manager and modify the file yourself, really easy, did it for KDF, no problems.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] cmd512:
Except once you do, it screws up your auto dim/bright. Instead of gradually dimming or brightening, it just goes dim to bright in 1 step, really annoying.

Hope they fix this with the next implementation of the CRT screen off...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] lgkahn:
the framework doesnt work with xe1.. causes reboot .. any possibility of changes soon.. i really like the larger percent battery icon you had thanks
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] banttu:
Damn I'd love to have this battery mod on my SGS
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Dreadsteel:
Noob here,

Does this theme require root?

Also is there away to just get the crt off animation only and not the whole theme?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jonata:
opss ....

not working with new kernel KE2 .....

anyway to update modding ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Potatoman:
Slightly off topic but could you post a link to the wallpaper you're using? My jaw dropped when I saw the screenshots, I love it.

EDIT Nevermind i just saw someone already asked, and I got it. If anyone wants, here it is (click to view):

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Moskiitto:
Same happened to me :/

So please help me what can I do now?

Taskbar force closes and phone is in bootloop :(

I had newest firmware installed via Kies.

Flashing firmware again??

Download mode + Odin???

Firmware where??

Scandinavian version (Finland)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] lgkahn:

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] prepo1:
this is very nice theme :), I will try it :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] david_again:
Can you make this for KG1 please?

I really would like a transparent statusbar.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] vegetaleb:
Yeah I coudn't succeed in building a transparent statusbar using old methods with the KG1 Infusion rom
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] zenzip:
good stuff, thank you!

It's possible to have ONLY the transparent notification bar MOD?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaccobb:
:o ok, I'm feel'n a bit sheepish about having to ask this. However, I did spend about 3 hours looking for an answer first! (I know how everyone likes answering a question 23 times in the same post!)

so here goes...

I installed the vegan ginger to my gtab (frick'n awesome as hell btw!) but now when I attempt to download an mp4 or avi from school for classes it gives me the option to "complete action using" and lists a few of my media players...

It used to give me the option to "save as". I'd like to go back to the save as, because I usually am downloading my school stuff while in class, and don't want to have to make sure volume is down and all. I just want to save it, and view it when I'm ready to view it.

Any suggestions? plz? :cool: uh, my mom bakes good cookies?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaccobb:
Shameless

It's a shameless bump, I know... However, I really do need an answer. Does anyone know how to make it so when you click, or long click a link, to a video that you can save it, in lieu of having your gtab attempt to open it immediately in a program?

I need to save things for school and watch them later for classes... and it keeps try'n to play them right there and then.:confused:

IS it possible to have the SGS phone interface (GSM or 3G) Video Call for our Nexus S??

I'm not interested on Gtalk Video Call... I want 3G Video Call

OoVoo in the market. Its free. I just downloaded and used it. My friend only had a rear facing cam, so I only saw what was on that cam, but he said my pic was clear.

This isn't what we are asking on this thread.

Still no info... Hardware isn't the same? What do we need? Kernel Mod's for this?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aamir123:
Im coming from a Samsung Vibrant which was my first android phone and I loved it. Now this Nexus S has found my heart but for some reason whenever I try to push an app such as the touchwiz launcher to system/app it moves the app to that folder but for some reason it doesnt install even after reboot. I tried to even reset defaults in the launcher but that was a no go. What am I doing wrong? I am running NSCollab.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkVis:
try

adb install <path_to_apk>

if its on the same folder as your adb then just type the .apk
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
that will only install it to SD card, not SYSTEM partition

to install to SYSTEM you will need to include the APK to the ROM to be flashed
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bringonblink:
Cant you just manually place it there with some like root explorer and manually install it?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aamir123:
I'm just getting to add an apk to an existing rom, I'll try adb install a lil later. But to me its odd since on the vibrant all I had to do was push to system partition and restart
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubbamade:
yes...place it in the "system/app" folder

you will see all the other apk native to your ROM in that same folder

you may have to fix permissions (r,w/r/r)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aamir123:
I have fixed permissions and everything but still its a no go. I dont get it, when I try to install in that directory it doesnt install. I figure this is a nexus S thing? Can anyone confirm this working?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aamir123:
I am running CM7 btw and after flashing my vibrant with it I am no longer able to push to system/app in order to install apk. Is this a problem or feature of CM7?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkVis:
Reboot after changing permission. Btw, what app are you pushing?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aamir123:
I tried pushing a modded version of the touchwiz launcher from the vibrant, theres a thread here somewhere in which someone was able to push without problems.

Edit: I tried rebooting but still not working. I also tried pushing a video player which others have successfully pushed and was unable to get that working either.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] crater:
Hello, I tried searching around but couldn't find any similar problem.

I've created my own bootanimation.zip which can be downloaded here http://www.megaupload.com/?d=576GF823 Its Red Wings Related, showing the Center Ice at Joe Louis Arena, then an awesome goal by zetterberg, then loops center ice again. That all works great.

The problem I've run into is that the first time it plays any of the animations they are slow. and when I'm only playing the goal once it goes in slow mo, if i loop it, the 2nd time it plays fast as it should. Is there anyway to fix this? I originally was just doing the goal, then the center ice on loop. I tried putting 1 center ice first, hoping it would take the lag and allow the goal to play full speed, but it doesn't.

Any help is appreciated.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] onelikeseabass:
The first playback is slow because it has to load every frame into memory while simultaneously performing the boot process. After all frames are cached, there's no more fighting other processes for access to the system partition.

I'm not 100% on this, but I don't think you can do anything to pause the boot sequence for that first load of the animation.

HTC Vision (G2) - CM7 B62 w/AUS radio
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] muriani:
Yeah, I just ran into this same issue making my own. :/

I wish there was a way to pre-cache the boot animation, if it ran full framerate then I'd actually get to see the whole clip when the phone boots.

Mine has no loop though, it's one continuous clip.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] krudsma:
Not sure what application you used to make you're bootanimation, but I made mine in After Effects and this is what I did to fix the issue. When rendering I made the dimensions half of the actual screen dimensions (this ended up being 960x600 for my tf700t), then I set the frame rate to 10fps. I then modified the desc.txt file accordingly:

1920 1200 18

p 1 0 part0

p 0 0 part1

(don't copy/paste that, can't remember if you need spaces or not).

Basically I used smaller, less demanding files (and by modifying the export framerate, fewer of them) and then had the tablet just blow them up to fit the screen. No discernible loss in quality. Hopefully this helps someone out there.
[General Topics] Bling_Diggity:
Time to up the ante, methinks.

I have tried my best and stretched my brain just about as far as it can go trying to unlock and root this damn thing. No dice.

So, in order to provide an incentive to speed up development, I am offering a GUARANTEED $50 reward to the first person who can

successfully

unlock the G-Slate bootloader (and by this I don't mean just typing "fastboot oem unlock" into adb, we already know that doesn't work) AND successfully root it.

In order for your method to be deemed "first", it must be the first method successfully reproduced on at least 2 other G-Slates (including mine). So, what this means is - if you post your method on the forum, and it doesn't work, and then someone else comes along and posts a method that does work - they get the money - unless you go back and edit your method before they can post theirs to begin with. If you edit your method to work after someone else has already posted a successful method, you get nada, even if you posted your original unedited method first.

Sound good? Ok. Get to work. This thread is also posted at my forum, by the way. LINK

Oh, and just in case you're wondering, the reason this thread is in the "General Discussion" forum is because we can't seem to get XDA to create the G-Slate it's own forum. :(

Is there a root exploit i can run from terminal like "Rageagainstthecage" or something that will allow me to root this tablet? Usb connection wont work so i am doing it via terminal, can load fields to it over wifi just need to know if you can think of anyway via terminal to root this device. All exploits i have found so far have been for the ARM processor and wont run on x86.

Perhaps this works ...

I would suggest, to follow the instructions, I discussed in [1] to establish a WiFi connection with your Android x86 device.

After I connected the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) I was able to run Android Dalvik Debug Monitor addm - maybe SuperOneClick will use the same trick (I have never tested it till yet).
