Can I install it on wildfire ??

I install it on wildfire , but the problem in the settings = force close

Also there is a problem in the size of the screen

wildfire is small screen size but the size of a large themes for this screen

Can you solve this problem ??
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
No, that's only for Milestone CM7 RC10!

You should extract png files with winrar from this themed apks and put these png into the apks of your device ROM!

To reside/modify the .9.png you need to decompile them!

Use APK manager, compression=0, heap size=512 or higher, decompile the themed apk, resize the .9.png files, use draw9patch to correct the offsets, recompile the apk, extract with winrar the .9.png from this recompiled apk and put them into the apk of your ROM!

Hello my friend

i have to resize screen lock from framework-res.apk file

can you help me

i decompile framework-res.apk file Useing APK manager

What is the file to modify for resize screen ?? :(

resize png file from res folder ?

i trying
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
Try to replace only simple png file and not the .9.png!

You can find draw9patch in C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools\

(you need JDK and SDK for x86, even if you have a S.O. x64)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
Are you modifying the framework-res.apk of your ROM?

Or have you token it from my themed apks?

Have you resize the themed png files at the same size of your original png?

You have to verify manually the size of them!

This theme dont work on my Milestone.

I update latest CM bud i dont see change when i install this theme.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
Are you sure to have update at CyanoGenMod 7.1.0 RC12 (2.3.4) 14/07/11?

Have you follow the guide at the first post?

1) sdcard/OpenRecovery/theme/froyo/apps/xxxxx (xxxx are all the APP.APK themed)

2) sdcard/OpenRecovery/theme/froyo/bootanimation/bootanimation.zip

3) sdcard/OpenRecovery/theme/froyo/framework/framework-res.apk

4) sdcard/OpenRecovery/theme/froyo/fonts/yyyyy (all the fonts of the pack)

etc...

Then from recovery choose Froyo 2.2.1 Modding Menu - Menu Install and Restore Theme - Install Theme - Yes.

etc-...

If you don't see changes, it mean that you have not apply the theme! ;)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] zelenko:
Do i need new OR ? i have older version. I do same like your explanation bud dont work. :S

i erase all in folder froyo and put your file there.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
You need Androidiani Open Recovery 3.3 >here<

Try now with new OR and let me know! ;)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] zelenko:
Nope, dont work. I dont what i do wrong..
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
You can do this:

Open update-CM7-RC12.zip with winrar and go in /system/app

Now extract my archive and select all the apk themed of the apps folder and drag and drop them in system/app of the window's winrar!

(So you'll replace all the default apk with themed apk)

Do the same for framework-res.apk in system/framework, for bootanimation.zip in system/media!

So you have themed the update-CM7-RC12.zip

Put it into recovery/update and install it as a normal ROM CM7! ;)

Where can I download this theme for CM 6.1.2.012(milaq),because all links on original Kalagas post are death?Thanks.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
The last Xeno that I made for CM6 (28/01/2011 by nadlabak) was the >Xeno Cyanogen V10<!

But it has old png files!

You can use the new png files of the Xeno NSCollab in my signature and put them in the apks of your CM6 (checking to replace your png files with the correct new ones)

No need APK manager, decompilation etc! Just drug and drop with winrar...

If you want, I can explain you better! ;)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] zviki:
Thanks.There must be a lot of png files to replace,right?What about "theme porter" app?Can do this?And are the names of png files the same?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
mmm..yes :o But you should finish everything in a few hours (I don't know exactly because I spend all the day when I'm "theming" =P )

Yes, the most of png files has the same file! And not all need to be themed ;)

O.O! It's the first time that I see this app!

Maybe you have saved me from thousand hours of working to port my theme to updated version of the ROM! ;)

I'll try to use it, but in your case...

I think that you'll lose many png porting Xeno NSCollab for Nexus to CM6 for Milestone :(

I see you want to learn so I'll explain how to do it manually!! ;)

Exactly today I port Xeno for Nexus to Xmini Pro! =P

and it works fine, but here I had to resize all png from hdpi to mdpi X"(

Fortunately you not have to do this! ;-)

Here is what you have to port my theme to another!

Make a copy of the apks of the NSCollab , than rename these copies from .apk to .zip, extract all in folders with winrar, delete all .xml, empty folder etc, leave only NameOfTheApp/res/many-dwawableXXX/png files

Do the same for your CM6 where you have to port my theme,

then draw near the two windows with the apk extracted (with png files inside),

so check manually what you can transfer (or modify) to the CM6

Finally you have the folders of the copied/extracted apk of the CM6 with the new themed png!

Now open with winrar the original .apk(s) of the CM6, and drag and drop these new themed png!

This is only to port the png to another ROM! =P

If you will make the theme for the updated CM6, you have only to drag and drop only the "res folder"

(with only png files) inside the new apks of the updated CM6!

Or... maybe... in this last case e for the next... you can use Theme Porter app! =D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] zviki:
Thanks.And zip7 open apk files too,without rename. :)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
Winrar too! ;)

I rename all the apk to .zip because then I can "extract all the zip in separate folders" with winrar in 2 clicks! ;)

And to rename all apk I use a macro key (F2 - End - 3x backspace - write:zip - tab) to make this quickly!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] zviki:
Thanks for your help.Theme porter can port themes between different roms too,but I have never had success in this.I will try your way. :D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
Added>>Xeno CyanoGen V25 Test<<

Using Theme Porter I modified the Theme at the apk of the CM7 RC13 and at the >GAPPS 2.3.5< of >nadlabak here< (putting them in /new/),

and putting firstly in /old, the png of the Xeno Cyanogen V24 and the GAPPS Themed 13/06/2011 (putting them in /old/),

and then I made the Porting with the "ThemeP."!

Then I put the apk of the NSCollab V7 (that has updated/new png and that integrate the Gapps) in /old/, and I remade the Porting!

In this way I'm sure to put firstly the png of the V24 and update them at the png of the NSCollab for Nexus that I'm theming now! ;)

So this update Xeno Cyanogen V25 contains the themed framework-res.apk and the app.apk of the CM7 RC13 and the GAPSS 2.3.5!

So before install the theme, don't forget to have before on Milestone the CM7 RC13 and the GAPPS of nadlabak!!! (that has the cool and new Market :p)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] TaintedCross:
Soo just to let you know your installation instructions are really limited and don't explain enough on how to install.

This version makes my milestone bootloop back and forth on the ur bootimage of the phone loading up into the rom once it gets to the end it vibrates and restarts ur bootimage back into vibrating over and over again.

This version doesn't make much sense either considering themes are installed from openrecovery/mod/scripts Or it atleast thats where it tried to install a theme from that it already had.

I tried making the folders like your instructions say but where are we suppose to get the files to put in the folders? If from the update-XenoCyanogen-V25-signed.zip Theres the META-INF left that ur instructions don't cover? If not it still doesn't explain where the update-XenoCyanogen-V25-signed.zip is suppose to go. I've installed lots of roms and themes but I cannot seem to figure yours out. Maybe a more comprehensive guide would help. Thanks in advance. This is for V25 test btw.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
That's simple! You can install V25 as a normal update.zip because it has updater-script, instead V24 must be install in that way because it is a simple archive of apk!

So you have to extract these apk and put them in those folders!

However you can extract all the apk from the V25.zip and manage them as the apk of the V24!

With V25 I only added the possibility to install the theme as an update! That's all! =P

The V24 works well with that procedure (I've tested it on my old Milestone, and it is the same procedure used by Kalagas), but unfortunately I can't test V25 because I have not the Milestone anymore!

If it doesn't work... maybe there is a feature that I make for nexus that is incompatible with Milestone, so...

use ThemePorter, putting the apks of your ROM in "/new/" and the apk of my theme in "/old/" (new and old are the folders of TP)

In this way you will replace only the themed PNG files and not the xml!

The theme will have more possibility to work well! ;)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] TaintedCross:
Your still not making any sense to me bud, So your saying I should just be able to download the V25 Zip and dump in in OpenRecovery/Update and update it like that? If so I tried that and it makes my phone boot loop I tried it about 10 times last night before giving up. Also in your instructions you say to do it before installing CM and then Wipe before and after, well if you install before CM, CM's default theme just installs right over top of it so it disappears. I tried doing it the otherway and install CM and wipe then install your theme and then wipe again and it causes the bootloop.

As for the second way you just explained your speaking gibberish to me. It be much simpler if you just gave me a step by step instruction :]
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
Yes!

As I said... :D

Sorry, maybe I badly expressed the phrase! =P

I didn't want say "Install it before CM7", but for me "install before CM7" is like "install CM7 before" or better "Install firstly the CM7" xD

Sorry if maybe I write badly in english, but translating that in my language is almost the same! :p

You can*** install V25 as a normal update.zip, if you will have problems at boot, use Theme Porter to port my theme to your ROM!

(I think that the problem is in the framework-res.apk, so you can try only to use TP on it and keep the other apk, so drug and drop the new ThemedPorted framework into my update.zip and try install it, otherwise... if you still have problems, use TP on all the apk)

If you want install V24, you have to use the procedure of the folders in openrecovery/theme etc etc etc

***you can also install v25 with the procedure of the V24, but you have to extract (obviously) all the apk from the update-theme.zip, and manage them like the apk of the V24!

I hope that now my words don't sound like something of gibberish, because now I simply tell you the same less synthetically =P

[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
I don't know if this update.zip works well with your ROM, because this theme is based on the ROM that I mentioned at 1° post!

If it doesn't works, use Theme Porter, to port the png files of my ROM in yours!

Otherwise... you can take my last Xeno Theme for Nexus (that is recently updated) and use it as the base of the porting! ;)

my milestone is running on cyanogen 7.1 2.3.7..

would it be able to work...?

& where should i put the zip file buddy../..?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Themes and Apps] Travis90x:
V25 is for CyanoGenMod 7.1.0 RC13 (2.3.4) 06/08/11

and it is an update.zip and you should install it as a normal ROM.zip

V24 is for CyanoGenMod 7.1.0 RC12 (2.3.4) 14/07/11

and it should be installed followig the procedure at the first post,

under the title "Xeno CyanoGen Version 24 By Travis90"

If they doesn't work, you have to use Theme Porter, to port the png of my apk into the apk of your ROM!

Then you have to put your themed apk of your ROM and install it as the procedure of Xeno V24

Or put the apk into the update-your-ROM.zip

But.. if you will use Theme Porter, I suggest you to download my Last Xeno Theme for Nexus S (V10.1 for now)

and use its apks (extract them from the theme-update.zip) that contains my last png files,

to port into the apk of your ROM!

[Xperia Arc General] Final5k:
Hi,

I am considering the Arc to be my next phone but I would like to know about its video capabilities. In nearly all HTC phones, when recording in low light conditions/at night, the camera tries to compensate the lack of light and this tends to make the video lose frames and to be really choppy. Does the Arc perform better and does it skips frames in bad lighting conditions?

Thanks!!

[Xperia Arc General] Step666:
GSMArena has a comparison of the LG Optimus 2X, HTC Sensation and Samsung Galaxy S2 which also features various other handsets at different junctures.

When comparing still image and video capture, they also throw in the Arc for good measure.

If u own 1 HTC, then you own all off em because they all look the same. That's why I bought the ARC.
[Xperia Arc General] chongbh:
I agree, HTC phones are one class lower than SonyEricsson in terms of build quality, design and phone technology.

By just comparing the phone battery technology, all their phones are still using Lithium Ion Battery while SonyEricsson's phone are using Lithium Polymer and everyone should know that there are more benefits for Lithium Polymer over Lithium Ion Batteries.
[Xperia Arc General] Final5k:
Hey thanks for all your replies. I think I'll have to try one at the shop to get a better idea on the device itself before deciding. Still, the camera seems to be the only thing that appeals to me - the screen is a bit small (I've own 4.3 hd2/desire hd and now a 5 inch dell streak). Will definitely have to play with it - still the Arc seems to be a very sexy phone!

Thanks all!
[Xperia Arc General] pngface:
Some of these replies look quite fanboyish.. there's a reason HTC sells so many phones..more than SE atleast

Anyway, add me to the SE fanboy list :) Until I get bored of Timescape I will stick to SE
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
There are 2 simple reasons why htc have and still do sell more phones than SE....

1. They've been in the android business since the start..

2. Until now SE's android phones have been relatively poor, and therefore SE had a bad rep.

I have a last question : If the zoom function is used while recording a video, does the camera automatically auto-focuses the video to make it clearer/sharper, or is the video blurry when zoom is used like in every phone model? Thanks!!

When you're capturing videos, you can't zoom in ;)

I've currently got an Xperia Arc and a HTC Desire S. The camera on the Arc is superior to that on the HTC as is video recording. I've actually been a bit shocked by how poor the HTC Desire S camera is for pictures although a friend with the new Sensation says that it has a great camera, he does however qualify that by going on to say it is great "for a HTC camera" which to me, says it all.

Hi,

I have the HTC Desire Z and I would like to get a 2nd phone.

There are only 2 options for me: The Arc or the Desire S. I think both HTC and SE are top manufactures in terms of design and build quality, the rest are just iS**t clones :P

I like the Desire S because of the uni-body aluminum design, but I think The Arc is nicer. I am a little bit concerned about the quality of the plastic on the Arc's back, an also i don't like the size ( 3,7 seams ideal for me).

I don't care about the camera, but I'm sure SE's is much better.
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
no need for concern.. plastic on arc is top notch..
[Xperia Arc General] sennyqtek:
Plastic of the Arc's back is indeed of good quality.. I can't decide for you but I can say the Arc is a great phone. I would definitely recommend it to you. Of course it also depends on what you're looking for in a phone.
[Xperia Arc General] silverwind:
I have both Desire Z and Arc..

I would suggest you to consider Arc.. Because Desire S contains HTC Sense which you already have it in Desire Z

Try new experience with Arc ;)

Cheers
[Xperia Arc General] tibidt:
Thank you all for the advice.

This seams the logical thing to do. The Desire Z and S have many similarities, and I like Sense (although i would like it to be more customisable ) , but the best part of my Z is that is rooted and S-Off so I can install any rom I want any day, currently I'm running Virtuos Unity 1.25.0 which has an adapted Sense 3.0 from Sensation :)

Anyway, if I'm getting a new phone, I'll probably go for the Arc.

If you don't want your 2nd phone right now, you could have a look at Xperia Ray. A bit smaller than the Arc, otherwise same specs and a metal back.
