[Captivate Themes and Apps] 10tonhammr:
The lockscreens are not just governed by the framework-res.apk. Some of the images for the lockscreens are in there, but its the settings.apk, settingsprovider.apk, and the android.policy.jar file that primarily control them. Mixing and matching different theme components is what's messing you up.

-Start with stock M3D, and find the theme you want (preferably something built for Mosaic.)

-Add the SystemUI.apk from Montage to that theme.zip to get the notification layout

-Dig into the M3D framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi-v4 folder and extract all of the images that are named:

zzz_unlock_puzzle_XXXXXXXXX.png (there should be 14 of them. Yes, they're named puzzle, but they are the image files for the HC lockscreen)

-Add those to the same folder location in the framework-res.apk of the theme you want, flash it, and you'll have the Honeycomb lockscreen.

If the theme you selected has a themed settings.apk that is not from Mosaic, it may not say "Honeycomb Lock Screen" in the settings menu, but the images will be correct.

Hope this helps. :D

BTW- Dark Fire Blue 4.0 is almost ready. HUGE thanks to all my testers. You guys rock!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] adzidek:
Thanks very much. Couple questions:

1. Where do I put the images if the theme I'm flashing doesn't have a v4 at the end of that folder?

2. Should I copy the settings.apk, settingsprovider.apk, and the android.policy.jar file from M3D into the theme I'm flashing as well?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] 10tonhammr:
1. If there is no "v4" extension, they go into "drawable-hdpi".

2. Try it without copying those files. If it works, leave well enough alone, lol. Again, you wanna minimize the mixing and matching as much as possible. That's why you should only pull the HC lockscreen pngs instead of the whole framework-res.apk.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] adzidek:
Gotcha. Hey any chance I can help you test Dark Fire Blue?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] brianray14:
Okydokey, sounds good. That White Crome theme looks sick too.. Can't wait for that one :)..

Off topic but i'm pretty sure it has something to do with mosiac themes.. Anyone else experiencing "talk app" FCing? Was working just fine on mosiac diet before i added launcherpro plus and Erebos

Edit: Found out why. Swype.apk not playing nicely with talk.apk; however is working everywhere else. Switched to GB keyboard and no more FC's
[Captivate Themes and Apps] 10tonhammr:
I appreciate it, but testing is pretty much over :( :) I'm finalizing the the release build as we speak. Hoping to launch tonight. Thanks, though!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] JGGW:
MATTEDBlues and White Chroms will most likely drop this week. If I am really lucky with timeframes at work, I could have it released by tonight but more than likely Friday when I go on days off and I have some time to finish off some of the smaller things....sometime this week I guess is what I am saying. I did notice there is a Black Chrome also, I may bring that over after these two are done.

The link is working here? What browser are you using, not sure if the stock one allows for apk files, because it doesn't support zip...

I can download and install, but it isn't running. I enable Swype in the Text & Input settings but when I select a textbox, the keyboard never pops up. I've tried rebooting and reinstalling but still no luck.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] jde984:
I was installing this with no problems, working great, but whenever I rebooted it was FC city for swype. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling a couple times with the same issue.

So the latest time I rebooted my phone after installing but before enabling swype. When I booted back up I enabled swype and so far it has survived multiple reboots. Could be coincidence, but worth a shot for those with issues.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] trekie86:
Yes studa, I did that.

I'll give that an attempt.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] trekie86:
Thanks jde, that did the trick. Weird.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jde984:
That is weird, glad it worked for you though. Maybe studa can add that step to his post..
[Captivate Themes and Apps] goodolsen:
From what I have seen you need to do 1 of 2 things to get the new Swype to work correctly.

1) You have to select another keyboard under Locale and Text, then uninstall and reinstall Swype, and then reselect it, or

2) You have to uninstall, reboot, and then install the new Swype and select it under Locale and Text.

If you uninstall while it is still the default keyboard it won't remove everything until a reboot.

Just my 2 cents.

EDIT: I also just found this thread, which has red and a few other colors. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1124639
[Captivate Themes and Apps] studacris:
Hmm that is weird... All I had to do is the steps I posted although I did forget the enabling it in locale and text...

But I had already uninstalled the stock Swype and had the new beta installed and set as default when I did it...

I'll edit my post soon, but I gtg i'm on a bus and this is my stop lol

I've got a question about using apkmanager when building themes for Mosaic, and I've never found a solid answer:

When compiling the framework-res.apk or twframework-res.apk, what is the right answer to the "Is this a system app, y/n?" question?

[Captivate Themes and Apps] scottcwhite:
Bummer, guess I won't be trying SNova then , lol
[Captivate Themes and Apps] jmtheiss:
Odd thing happened to me as I was playing around with making CWM theme files.

I was having trouble getting my setup to flash in CWM, so I started rebuilding the zip file. I took a known good one, gutted it, and put in (one by one) SystemUI.apk, TwWallpaperChooser.apk, bootanimation.zip, sanim.zip, and twframework-res.zip of my customs, and those all worked. At the time, I had the M7 stock framework-res.apk in the zip file, and it flashed ok. When I tried to insert and flash the framework-res.apk I had built, it didn't work at first, so I recompiled it and made a copy of the current good zip, then inserted the recompiled one into a new zip. That flashed the full deal (finally).

I then thought it would be a good idea to test the revert and reapply, so I used my revert file to put everything back to the stock M7 setup, then tried to reflash the last zip file I made. It bootanimation looped, so I reverted back again, and flashed the last known good zip (with stock framework-res.apk). That flashed fine, so I decided to try the modded zip, but this time, it flashed properly.

I don't get what happened - apparently it wanted me to have everything else in place first before it would flash the modified framework-res.apk. Weird.

Sorry for rambling - this isn't really a question, just more of a war story.

It's not just you bro im having the same problems. I think chiki had the same issues as well. Right now my theme is on hold till there is a resolution or MVIII.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] jmtheiss:
Good to know. I wonder what changed in the framework so much that's causing all these problems.

Scene: Interior, Samsung Headquarters. A single software engineer is sitting at his desk, the soft light of the monitor the only light in the room. Over the sound of keystrokes and mouse clicks, we hear him mumbling to himself.

...Change the way it looks, will they? Make my beautiful layout into some trashy custom setup? I don't think so. Let's see how they like *click* *click* this.

Maybe I'll swap back to the stock current beta instead of Darky's dark blue and see if that cures it.
