Been meaning to reply to this for a while, I love this theme! It's a combination of Elegant Steel and red which just makes for awesomeness. Good job man, I'll be pressing the thanks button when I'm back on the comp.
[Epic 4G Themes] TexasLTE:
Looks pretty good ... nice job
[Epic 4G Themes] TexasLTE:
OK Overstew = you've had plenty of time to play with that SwissCheese , not get back to work on this theme ... LOL !
[Epic 4G Themes] 2girls1cup:
Yes indeed this theme looks good...I want to mix my swisscheese with this.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Hahaha. I've been playing around with it a lot, anyways it's back to business. As soon as I can get eclipse to stop thinking some of my images are malformed, I can get this baby updated! ;)
[Epic 4G Themes] Countryazhell:
Downloaded the transparent xda app and the mattedreds theme followed over making a perfect match! Cant post the link since I'm a noob but search xda and droid forums.

Thanks again! can't wait for update on pngs and ee03
[Epic 4G Themes] computerkid23:
good work Stew!! nice on first new theme good sir
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Aosp bars are themed. I had the links all messed up lol. They're fixed now. :)
[Epic 4G Themes] VAnative21:
Is there a way we can flash this with our current theme without changing our theme but addin the lockscreens?

Sent from DJ's Samsung Epic + XDA Premium!
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Only themes with the modified framework-res and android-policy.jar can do the lockscreen mod. To be honest, I prefer the tw lockscreen over them all. But lockscreen mod is for my fans. :p
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
v2.5.1 is coming along nicely. :p
[Epic 4G Themes] dmarden:
Looks nice, man. Your continued efforts are appreciated.
[Epic 4G Themes] xplus93:
I really like the metalic dialer buttons that are on it now, it would be nice if you had it as two separate add-ons. Anyway, I was originally making this post to se if you were planning on theming any of the samsung apps especially the clock since I use it all of the time. Again, great theme, made me give up my tasty gingerbread in a heartbeat.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
The dialer patch in the OP will revert back to Maddoggin's Dialer. It will have blue buttons instead of red (only when you press them).

EDIT: samsung clock? I'll need ascreenie to know what you mean. lol I personally have most Samsung software removed (except for the launcher). w/ Beautiful Widgets.

And thank you for the complements. :)
[Epic 4G Themes] xplus93:
I can't post screenshots, it will only let you do that from a pc, I don't have one to use right now. The clock app I'm talking about is the one with the timer and stopwatch that comes with the phone, I'm using srf 1.1.1 so it has both the google and samsung ones. If you want I can see if I can find the apk and email it to you.
[Epic 4G Themes] xplus93:
-edit- now that I think about it I could email the screenshot from my phone if you'd like

Will this reinstall swype 2 on my phone? I got swype 3 beta and i heard bad things will happen if swype 2 is with swype 3 beta
[Epic 4G Themes] dmarden:
Just pull the swype files out of the zip before flashing.
[Epic 4G Themes] latindor17:
thanks, and also one more question, whats the difference with AOSP and standard if both have the lockscreen mod?
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
I think the 3g data arrows don't work for me lol not showing that anything is going over 3g even tho I'm downloading something
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
I haven't have this problem at all. What rom are you using?
[Epic 4G Themes] mister2quick:
AWESOME work! Just flashed it and I am digging the setup! Especially the boot logo. Good job and keep up the good work!
[Epic 4G Themes] mister2quick:
I am actually having the same issue. I just popped up a streaming audio app and it didn't change the icon at all. However, when I exited out and hit ATK, the icon blipped, acted as if it was working correctly, blipped again, and is not doing anything again.

Using ACS 1.1.1
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Does 3G still work during this period of the icon disappearing?
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
AOSP version has AOSP signal bars/AOSP battmod.

Standard has Syndicate Battmod (red ofc)/Samsung Signal bars.
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
my icon is there. and the 3g works fine. just the arrows dont change when im using it. its no big deal to me just thought you should know...

im on bonsai 4.1.1 with the genocide 1.1 kernel..

i bet if i reflashed the theme it would work. but i havent tried it yet since it doesnt really bug me.

btw, i dont see the previews for the aosp bars vs. the sammy ones.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
I redid the 3g icons. I'll have to make sure I did the images correctly.

As for the aosp, I'll have a screenie shortly (unless another user would like to post one for me. :))

EDIT: I've now patched it. Will be included in the next version.

Animated Icons w/ Lockscreen

So could U do a modified framework of the regular TouchWiz and add the lockscreens to it? Overall what I'm tryin to accomplish is the animated icons on my notification bar with the lockscreen mod on my SFR 1.1.1...
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Flash Stock Mod for EC05 in this thread. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1089073
[Epic 4G Themes] Animas1020:
Great theme! Very polished and I expect it to get even better.
[Epic 4G Themes] VAnative21:
But that's the thing... I'm not a developer and I tried changing the notification icons with the stock one and got a boot loop... any suggestions?
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Which notification icons?
[Epic 4G Themes] Animas1020:
I think he may be referring to the signal bars (3G too) and such.

Like what is done here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1038270
[Epic 4G Themes] VAnative21:
Exactly or something similar... I tried putting those notifications with the Stock 6-lockscreen but kept getting a boot loop...
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
You have to name them accordingly and edit an xml or two. :p
[Epic 4G Themes] CrfEpic4g:
will the newest version work on srf 1.1.1?
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Yes. And it will support SRF 1.2. ;)
[Epic 4G Themes] CrfEpic4g:
AYYYYYYY ok just asking cause i couldn't use the 6 lockscreens its cool that yall got them to work :D:D
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
I may fiddle around with the dialer and have it more fix for my likings. It's not top priority on my to-do list, though. :p
[Epic 4G Themes] mister2quick:
I can see that the arrows change every once in a while but it looks like the 3g icons go dimmer when the arrows are in use (still there too)
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
I've fixed the icon issues. Will be released in the next version.

As soon as I can get the mms font color fixed, I will release.
[Epic 4G Themes] Skidiver:
I cannot get the lockscreens to show in the screen...can somebody help me?
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
It's an app, not built into settings.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Version v2.5.1

- Added Themed Music Player Background (on status bar pulldown only).

- Fixed Dialer to be MattedReds (instead of Maddoggin's Dialer).

- Fixed buttons being dark when disabled.

- Fixed numerous other little bugs (trust me).

About to update OP.

May or May not port this to EF02+. Really liking EF02 but depends on my schedule to be honest.
[Epic 4G Themes] pjjohn73:
Awesome.

So you've played with EF02? Seem pretty solid?
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Yes! EF02 will go far my friend.
[Epic 4G Themes] pjjohn73:
Cool!
[Epic 4G Themes] diestarbucks:
You sir, are the man. New dialer looks great. I've enjoyed a lot of themes from our awesome devs here, but yours has easily become my favorite. Keep up the awesome work dude.
[Epic 4G Themes] XxLostSoulxX:
Hey Do You Think You Can Incorporate This lockscreen Pic In Attach.

This is From Honey Red
[Epic 4G Themes] Specialksg1:
Love the theme. Only issue i've noticed is the 3g up/download arrows are oh so slightly off center. Great work!
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
They're supposed to be slightly to the right under the 3g icon.

Coming soon? (btw this is for EF02)
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
It's doable, but I'd make it darker and probably optional addon, just because I kind of like the way it looks now. :p
[Epic 4G Themes] CyanCrayon:
O.O Yes! That looks EPIC. I can't wait for that blue theme! -drools-
[Epic 4G Themes] Specialksg1:
Oh ... in tbat case, it's perfect!

Question, I use 190 density and a couple of the lock screens don't scale, is that the theme or the lock screen mod?

sent from "The Other Woman"
[Epic 4G Themes] Esteway.619:
That looks good u should change the icons the the galaxy s2 qbking has a flashable add on but it be nice to just incorporated into the theme. Just a thought lol.
[Epic 4G Themes] || Acer ||:
+1. The GS2 icons look way more profesional in my opinion.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Most likely the Lockscreen mod.
[Epic 4G Themes] CyanCrayon:
No, the icons he has in the screenshot are perfect.

At least make a version with the same icons as in that screenshot.

Can hardly wait for MattedBlues! >.<"
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
http://www.mediafire.com/?x3s3tf9jojlx15w

StewsBlues v1 LITE will work on EE03 and EF02 roms, this is beta and also does NOT include lockscreen mod. An updated version of this may come out soon, but I'm not making promises.

P.S. Do NOT flash this over EC05 froyo!
[Epic 4G Themes] dmarden:
There you go... call the red one, "Tomato Stew" lol.

There may be one more update before I move onto the Evo 3D.

Nooooo! Bad Stew!

Hey Overstew, are you going to be trying to port this to the Evo 3D?
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Maybe.
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
How do I change (if you can update it) to show the date/time per message in white font color rather than blackout, because I'd like to see them.

Everything looks great. Just need a fix for above ^^^ and a fix for the blue color (in picture).

http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/8155/snap20110624163533.png

Trying to figure out how to remove the images for the contacts. Can't believe I'm forgetting these things easily.

http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/4504/snap20110624165721.png

Option to remove picture for contacts disappeared. No way to remove them. Right now its showing them all blue robot. Also, in screenshot, another font color glitch when pressing Menu > Display Options for Contacts.

Option to change the Lockscreen disappeared. I know where to find it, but its not there anymore.

The red circle battery indicator at the top was acting weird. I reversed to theme by SFR1.2, no problem there, now back on this theme, weird problem there. Phone is off waiting full charge for battery stats wipe to see if that help.

Also, some random places do show blue text rather than theme's red.

Adding the email system still showing blue. I am using the email system with phone, no email app or anything else. Hooked up my AOL account to it. Since the default email system is within the phone, the theme should have converted it, too, but only did partial.

http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3543/snap20110624211601.png

No red line under Contacts tab and that tab don't look the same as other tabs.

http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/7301/snap20110624211458.png

Update - Lockscreen options moved to the Apps page (strange). Found it. :-)
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
I really like the feedback. :)

The contacts tab is in the contacts.apk. it's actually very easy to fix, but you can copy the tabs from framework-res.apk and paste them in the contacts tab images.

As for the color'd text, they're all xml files within framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk. I believe the file is zzz_secondary_text inside one of the framework files > res > color. I don't have a rooted epic anymore so chances are that I wont be able to properly test anymore builds, and I tend to always break something when dealing with xml files. LOL
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
OMG!!! I got no experience with this. :-( I really love the theme, though. This gonna make me cry. :-(
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
So, I try to adjust some files. Do I have to install them all together again or somehow replace a file one by one? If so, how would I go about doing that?

Do you have anyone to continue on this theme? No other themes come even close to this...
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
I really appreciate your comments. I will not leave this theme alone to dry out, I'll have somebody take over for me. I'll ask someone from ACS to see if they would like to continue off from where I left off. :)
[Epic 4G Themes] flimsy888:
How do i remove am/pm?
[Epic 4G Themes] flimsy888:
can i have the link to the backgrounds used in the screenshot?
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
I will try to do some fixes.

I hope the ACS team will continue it, because the Calculator and Calendar hasn't even been themed. lol
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
Okay, working on it...

system > framework > framework-res.apk

Unzipped, go into res > drawable-hdpi > tab_selected.9 and tab_unselected.9 are the two most closest tabs that I see (but they don't look exactly like the tabs in the Phone screen's top menu bar ... Why? These two tabs don't even have the double red/gray lines at the bottom).

system > app > Contacts.apk (unzip...)

I looked through all the folders within the Contacts.apk and see no tab graphics. None. Then I see the Phone, apk and continue to look there. Nothing there.

So, lets review the screenshot...

^^^ Up above, we see how the non-selected tabs have gray and red lines underneath. Its not doing that for the Contacts tab. And you can also see the non-selected tabs having gray background while the Contacts tab is totally black. Something gone wrong here.

^^^ Notice when pressing the Favorites tab, it turns red.

^^^ Notice when pressing the Contacts tab, it turns yellow (should be red).

- So, I am still trying to search for these graphics and XML files to see where to fix it. No luck

Anyone here capable of working on this and guide me through the locations, changes, etc?

As Overstew said, we need someone to continue this theme. I'd love to, but I just do not have enough knowledge for this. We need theme for the Calculator and Calendar. I'm sure there are others that I have not discover yet.

Overstew, why did you choose blue Android for Contacts list? lolol I had to set them all to red Android. :-P
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Changing any .9 images will make the .9 PNG corrupt, so you'll need to redraw the .9 VIA draw9patch. You've found the tab issue, we just need to make the tab exactly like the one in framework-res.apk. ;)

I'm on vacation for a week so I won't be on xda unless its raining outside (going to the beach). Btw the actual dialer app is dialeractivity.apk.

As for calc/calendar, Im not making any promises, but changing the buttons to solid black would look cool (then changing the hue of touchwiz blue to dark red would also work).

Honeyred might have some red apps themes, (with permission), you could contact jungle and see if he can help you out. As for now, I'm still determining who to contact about taking over for this.
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
Okay, then I dunno those stuff, so I'll have to wait.

Safe to edit the XML files? I will try to fix the sub text.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Decompile a stock twframework-res.apk (i think its twframework-res.apk) with apk manager, then go into res, and I think its in color or values. Maybe drawable or layout...but pretty sure its in values. After that, edit the zz_secondarytext and change the text color from the original touchwiz blue to firebrick red, ill find the code for u, just a sec.

"#FFC11B17"

Save the xml, then recompile twframework-res.apk, copy the xml file from the edited twframeworkres into the mattedreds one abd replace it.

That should be the text color.
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
7zip okay? It can extract, but dunno if it can zip. lol I'll be back later. Thx for the color code.
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
There is no values folder. :-P

I looked in drawable and layout folders, nothing there.

But the closest that I can find is tw_textappearance_listtwolinesecondary inside the color folder.

It appears that Notepad and Wordpad can't open these files. lolol I will have to search on Google for free XML editor.

^^^ All above is for the twframework-res.apk

I found the zzz_tw_secondary_text_sub inside the color folder within the framework-res.apk.
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
What XML compatible editor (free, please) are you using? The free editors I tried wouldn't even open this frickin file.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Notepad++ is what I use.

You must have the apk decompiled to view the color folder.
[Epic 4G Themes] flimsy888:
How can i restore am/pm?
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
I did unzip everything. lol

I downloadec Notepad++ (free) and when I opened the file, it was all mumbo jumbo. :-(
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
I downloaded my am/pm restore from the SRF 1.2 thread.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Unzipping =\= decompiling. You need apk manager v4.9. Try a Google, don't have much time atm.
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
Interesting. There is a topic on how to create theme and the guy never mentioned apk manager v4.9 (he suggested 7zip). I will try that, Overstew. Trying hard to learn here, so that I can improve your theme, even offer in multiple colors, if that time comes.
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
I downloaded the APK Manager 4.6 and its not an .exe installer. All there is after unzipping...folders and Script run program. Opened it...pressed 9 to decompile...but its not giving me the option to point the apk file. After pressing 9, it says to select a project to work on, so I press 22 (but when pressing the first 2, it goes back to menu before pressing the second 2).

Overstew, is that you in your avi?
[Epic 4G Themes] greenmuggy:
Overstew, I have a req this theme is perfect except...... I want the transparent taskbar from blue glass 3.3 but with your red icons & a semi transparent pulldown bg is there any way you could whip me up a flashable zip for this? please & thank u
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Creating a transparent task bar is outside of my knowledge, it requires more than just adding transparency to to the status bar .9img.
[Epic 4G Themes] greenmuggy:
No need to create why not just pull those files out of the other theme & put em on your theme I would do it myself but for some reason I always mess up the re-compile of whatever I do
[Epic 4G Themes] Yellowfrizbee:
Really great theme!! Holy hell, just realized you are in Jacksonville, Florida! I live there too. In Southside really close to UNF/FSCJ. I go to school there :p!

Damn, come chill with me and maybe teach me some theming ;)! Im taking programming courses at the college and I still have yet to meet anyone that is into android developing. :(

Im taking some classes this fall at deerwood and south campus, then one online class. I actually forgot which ones i signed up for. Lol! i think ones SQL programming and other is computer management. Online classes is earth and space science. Lol!
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
You can change the lockscreen by using the lockscreen settings app in your app drawer. :)
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
I'd have to look at the .zip file. I believe its a smali file that edits the status bar clock. I wont have time to look into it until i get back from vacation.
[Epic 4G Themes] Schnadam:
Im trying that and when I click the sleep button on the top right... And come back.. No lock screen is on although I have the lockscreen settings on through the lockscreen app
[Epic 4G Themes] Schnadam:
What app do I put on the lockscreen app settings?
[Epic 4G Themes] flimsy888:
no problem take your time! :D
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
You gave credit to the wrong person. I asked him for a blue version and he claimed to not have made this. Okay, there are several colors available, but he said by user "Optimus2" but none is available on here. "Optimus" is a user on here, but last active in 2004. So... Who really made the boot animation? I'd like a blue version (and to save other colors for possible future use).
[Epic 4G Themes] JohnCorleone:
It was optmusprim2. Its called Helix boot animation
[Epic 4G Themes] ThunderOKC:
Kool. I will find that guy whenever I wake up. Thanks.

Here is the thread for the boot animations. There is a blue, red, green, and fuschia one posted with the matching shutdown animations. They are all flashable zips.

[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Alright guys, I'm building another version of this, but I've no test device. At the moment, I've got ACS members willing to test my theme, but do I have anymore takers?
[Epic 4G Themes] tps70:
I'd test it. Let me know if you want me to help out.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Is your current version compatible with SRF 1.2? no issues?
[Epic 4G Themes] tps70:
Works perfectly for me. SRF 1.2 with no hiccups I can think of. The only thing I may do differently than some is I always flash the stock fonts cuz the ones in the theme aren't easy for me to read for some reason.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
That's something I've done in v2.5+, removed all edited Fonts to stock.

I'm changing the Market, can you flash this over your current Mattedreds and tell me if it changes your market app at all? (It should change the icon to black).

http://www.mediafire.com/?rk00sa7cqjh802p

EDIT: Nandroid first, just to be safe. :)
[Epic 4G Themes] tps70:
Did the Nandroid & flashed the zip. First time I ran the market, I noticed the drawer icon was green/white, but it came up black (no transparency) with a black icon in the upper left corner. I was going to take a screenie to show you. Started Shootme & reopened the market... Looks almost stock now - white w/green.
[Epic 4G Themes] tps70:
I also tried rebooting twice to no avail - still white/green.
[Epic 4G Themes] Overstew:
Okay thanks. To revert back, either reflash the theme or restore your nandroid. :)

I'll see what the problem is.

As for testers, if i need anymore i'll shoot you a pm. ;)
