I think you have the wrong thread, this is the oj theme thread, the serendipity rom thread is here, but I'm glad you are happy (especially if you are running my theme). :)

The 9-lock mod now also includes the custom power menu, and settings -> applications -> manage applications doesn't force close. Please also download the revert in case something doesn't go right. Also please report if any apps you had trouble with before on 10-lock work now or not.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] pittsm:
yes mother.......:rolleyes:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] AnarchoXen:
Yeah I just noticed that. I was thanking you for the theme but typed ROM...works great.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mortem Tuam:
LOL ^^^^funny

I'm curious to know how many of you cats could be my kids :eek: figuratively not literally

LOL :D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] AnarchoXen:
Not me...got an old one here...1970

Even us old folks like messing around with the phones...my 15 nephew is always amazed at what I show him on this phone now...he is gonna like ORANGE!!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mortem Tuam:
you got 4 years on me old man! :cool:

but I know a few guys here who are young ones....one in particular who has conducted himself in the most adult manner I hadn't pegged him until I got his info LOL....he has my respect...and that's saying a lot coming from me.

some of the others are obviously younger and have the tendencies of youth in them that reveal that.

Don't get me wrong though, some smart young kids here....they could be doing far worse than rooting phones and messing with computers....glad to work side by side with them.

Keep up the good work young ones :cool:

And remember, old Mortem is here for your gfxs needs if need be. :cool::cool:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] pittsm:
i'm 27, so a little too old to be your kid, but you can dream. lol

edit: and yes, I was shocked to find out mikey's age. I had him pegged for a 40 year old for some reason.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Rodman101:
Damn and I always thought messing with phones was younger people stuff. I'm only 16 O.o

I'm feeling serendipitous...

looks like your the odd man out of this thread. lol
[Captivate Themes and Apps] t3chn0s1s:
Dec 24 1977 here for me. Not sure these days if 30's are considered young or old. I guess it depends on who you talk to. Old and young are matters of relativity and perception. You're only as old as you feel. Posting on this forum and interacting with everyone here brings me back to the old dial-up BBS (Bulletin Board Service) days of Prodigy, AOL and Compuserve. (Ok, I know I just dated myself there.... LOL)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
I beg to differ sir, still 15 for a couple of months here. It does seem like the average age of XDA (or at least the captivate forum) is somewhere in the mid to upper 20's, but there is definitely a wide range.

LOL, my first email account was actually gmail back when it was in beta (for five freaking years). We did have dial-up though until I was maybe 10, and that sucked.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] t3chn0s1s:
Yeah... I am a legacy GMAIL user as well. I joined GMAIL when it was still in beta and you could join (like Google+) by invite only. I don't even remember how long ago that was. Honestly I feel 'old' being on here since MOST of the developers on this site are 10+ years my junior. Nonetheless, I am quite grateful for the extremely intelligent, creative and highly motivated individuals that create the ROMs, themes, tweaks, mods, etc that I have come to love and rely upon SO much. There was no Google when I was a kid, let alone Android or smartphones - MUCH LESS cell phones that weren't the size of a VCR. LOL :D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mortem Tuam:
I too was in Gmail beta....though I have abandoned my old email addy.....

and BTW I wasn't saying everyone was a kid here, I was just trying to point out that I personally was surprised at how many young ones were here and how talented they are in messing with these phones.

and I got to say this out in the open, bryman has been one of the easiest and pleasant gents to work with on this forum.

I've got nothing but respect for you my man. And yes....you could be my kid :eek: figuratively nor literally!!

Keep those themes coming.....I got walls for 'em :cool:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] AnarchoXen:
Sure does...1200 baud modem and CompuServe...had to dial the number on the phone, wait for the beep and unplug from the phone and plug in to the modem...had to be quick about it too...dad was pissed I stole his CC card and signed up.

Miss my Commodore Vic 20....and boy that 64 bit was some upgrade...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Yeah I'm awesome :D. Mortem's pretty great too.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] t3chn0s1s:
Mortem, I couldn't agree more! Bryman and you have been two of the most PLEASANT folks I have ever encountered on XDA. I have nothing but nice things to say about this particular forum and those who have selflessly put forth many hours of work with no expectation of anything in return. It is quite refreshing to deal with people who command respect via leading by example. Thank you BOTH for all of your hard work and dedication to this community! It has NOT gone unnoticed.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mortem Tuam:
:mad: but I swear if any of you punks looks twice at my daughter......I will rip out your spleens and shove them up your cornhole! :mad:

[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
LOL yeah, I guess so, the whole I could care less thing is one of those that I just have to point out sometimes.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Joecascio2000:
Wow I missed a big conversation! I should stop waking up at 2pm. :rolleyes:

I just turned 20 in may. And it surprises me, how every generation is becoming more technological. There is a lot I could do with a computer, and I've never taking classes to learn any of it. It's all self taught but it took me a while to learn. However, Bryman I'm sure, knows how to do everything I can plus more.

I thank Google and our determination. Haha and I read an article that Google was making us stupid. :confused:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mortem Tuam:
I too am self taught on most everything...I earned my Bachelors of Science in Computer Networking but I repair computers both Mac and PC and I install software and maintain systems. Of course I am into rooting phones and jailbreaking and also very into GFXs (of course). But I only have taken classes for Networking.

I also play guitar and have played in many bands, some of which actually earned a few bucks for gigs! I started learning guitar at 11 all self taught.

I just enjoy learning....I have had thoughts of doing themes like bryman.....but I haven't had a good block of time to dedicate to it.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Joecascio2000:
Question: I'm trying to create/modify a battery mod. I want to make the block battery a complete square, instead of a bunch of squares in a square. BUT when I try and edit the .png files it comes out weird. I'll post them below:

Original:

Tried to Edit with Photoshop:

What I want to do: (This one I used Paint but of course lost the transparency.

Any Ideas??
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
I don't use Photoshop so I don't know. I just made this one real quick with Paint.NET, no problems here.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Joecascio2000:
Cool ill check it out later tonight. If/when I get them all done ill send you the images if you want to include them.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Sounds good.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mortem Tuam:
Sometimes remaking the pic from scratch is easier than editing the png file. Just use the same dimensions and create a new file in Photoshop. Leave that base layer empty and create a new layer for your box. I would zoom in about 400% to get to the small pixels. And draw your lines. Then create a new layer for the middle box. Save as a png.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Joecascio2000:
That would be much harder especially when you have to divide it depending on the percentage.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mortem Tuam:
harder for who?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Post it in here.

The light glow sounds like a good addition, no so much the overscroll but around the boxes and stuff.

......Zomg ...hahahah... lol @ me ..... After switching back and forth about 12 times yesterday, between Bluedipity and OJ, my phone finally got way pissed at me :( I still am not sure what triggered it, but had to factory reset twice. Not so bad, just short of a full flash and actually took the time to pick at some other small issues I've been having (unrelated).

This is a warning to knuckleheads like myself, Talon MAY cause issues, there is a workaround, but apparently IT WILL eventually get real mad at you and make your life chaos for about an hour :p

☺☻ If on Talon,The best and easiest thing to do is just as stated in OP. Switch kernels, flash OJ, switch your kernel back, good times. Seriously... unless you likes being a knucklehead . . . or you likes chaos. :D

And. . . Damn it, I am seriously torn, I actually feel bad using this, feel like I'm cheating on ol' Blue, I just cant help myself. :D The walls are excellent also, I use all black backgrounds due to having a lot of RSS feeds, but they are calling me and the stock OJ wall is perfect choice.

Thanks again for all the time spent.

Nice! I have loved orange themes since I first saw it in Adromeda.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] iRide113:
Pretty nice!

If you ever get bored and have nothing to do, I think a black and grey theme would look good. ;)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Yeah, when I was thinking about what color to do next after blue, my top three were orange, purple, and grey. I put up a poll and orange won, but if I remember correctly, grey was second. So, it's definitively a possibility for the future.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] iRide113:
A poll? I've been gone for way to long... hahaha. :cool:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Yeah, it was in the Bluedipity thread. I put it up on June 25th. I think it expired on the 29th, but I'm not sure.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] s1l3nt:
this looks awesome i voted for the grey but this turned out to be a great choice for a theme

here you go my friend....hope I do your trade justice :D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] t3chn0s1s:
I LOVE IT Mortem! Yes, you have done 'my trade' plenty of justice. I don't think I could have done it better myself! I really appreciate you taking the time to make this. Many thanks!!

no problem :)

I just hate that sigs have to be a certain file size....it really takes some of the detail out...but oh well. :cool:

[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mortem Tuam:

[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mortem Tuam:
one thing to also remember in Photoshop is the Mode of the file....the one you provided was in Indexed Mode and had to be changed to RGB to color the lines.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mortem Tuam:
why use Paint.Net when you have Photoshop....Paint.Net doesn't even compare

no offense to Paint.net users..:cool:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mortem Tuam:
well Joe is going to ignore me looks like....so I am off to bed

I see a little red bleeding over into your gray. Is that intentional? Now I'm going to bed.

Actually for this task, I feel Paint.NET is easier. Its got a big toolbar at the top.

I'm at 16 now! It's gonna look good when it's done.

Square Battery Mod Complete

Hey Bryman27,

I sent you a PM with the completed .pngs. I'm just writing it here cause:

A) XDA's messaging system sucks and sometimes doesn't even send them

or

B) Your like me and never actually check/see you PMs.

Either way just let me know if you get it. Also, I'll attach it here too.

Thanks
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
I always see my PMs, working on it right now.

nice work joe. i like the block.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Joecascio2000:
Thanks. It didn't take as long as I thought.

I wish XDA had some sort of conformation it got sent. When I hit send, it doesn't show it sent, It doesn't show it in the sent folder, and it doesn't show on XDA mobile under out box. No way of actually knowing it got sent!

But Thanks Bryman!

Hey guys I've been having with some problems with the edt 9 screen lock mod. It hasn't worked for me and I've followed the instructions to a "t"

I'm feeling serendipitous...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
You're going to need to be more specific than "some problems".
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Rodman101:
Oh lol I forgot to specify well it doesn't change the lock screen and I don't see options to change the power menu I was thinking maybe I have an old edt tweaks app

I'm feeling serendipitous...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Are you on Talon?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Rodman101:
No I'm on serendipity kernel 4 not 4.1

I'm feeling serendipitous...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Alright that gets that out of the way, would you mind redownloading and re-flashing? There are probably different things we could do, but I think that would be the simplest way to solve your problem. Also, just so we're clear, keep in mind that you can only change the power menu with the Theme Settings app, and can only change lockscreens with the Settings app and the EDT Tweaks app.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Rodman101:
Ok I redownloaded and flashed the mod again and the edt app doesn't change the lockscreen still

I'm feeling serendipitous...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Try manually pushing this to /system/app/ and removing /data/app/EDT.apk if there is one.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Rodman101:
The app didn't help either so I tried a fourth re download/ re flash and it finally worked idk why it took so many but at least it works

I'm feeling serendipitous...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
I'm glad you got it working, and I have no clue why it didn't work before, I'm certainly not the best at troubleshooting.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] MonoControl:
Quick question on the 9-lock custom power menu. How do I access that? -.-'
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
The power menu is what pops up when you hold the power button down. It can be customized with the Theme Settings app.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] MonoControl:
and wheres that? lol sorry for noob questions :p
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
It should be in your app drawer.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] MonoControl:
I dont think I have that D:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Joecascio2000:
Did you re-flash the 9 Lock mod? He changed it a week ago to include the power menu mod.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] MonoControl:
yeah that's what i thought had happen but wasn't sure, thankfully i downloaded it just in case =D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Joecascio2000:
Yeah I would just re-flash and if you don't see Theme setting this time you can always push it to the phone and see if it works.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Yeah, a general rule for me: If it sounds like you are missing something, re-download and flash.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Joecascio2000:
Bryman's Words of Wisdom!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] MonoControl:
So I re-flashed and got the app and now its telling me "JKay Deluxe Theme not found! Please install Deluxe Theme" -.- and I thought I had it lol
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Try reflashing and then redownloading and reflashing, make sure system and data are mounted in recovery first, just to be safe. Did you flash a battery mod?

The Theme Settings app looks for a particular string in framework-res, or it won't open. I'm thinking either the framework-res didn't flash properly or I messed up one of the battery mods.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] MonoControl:
Okay I'll try and it might be the battery mod I'll check right now =]

Edit: Now I'm sure it was the battery mob =[ its the honeycombish style batt with no transitions
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Alright my guess is you didn't also redownload the battery mod, the battery mod you are flashing hasn't been updated yet. You should be good to go if you redownload the battery mod and flash.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] MonoControl:
Everything worked re-flashed batt mod and I can access the themes app thanks for helping =]
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
No problem. Glad you got everything working.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Rodman101:
I'm not sure if maybe it's a bad flash but the honeycomb lock screen won't unlock and go to the text message if I have one it will hover over it and go back to center

I'm feeling serendipitous...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] MonoControl:
Are you using the circle to unlock or the message notifier to unlock it?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Yeah it's working for me. You should be dragging the message icon to the same place you would normally drag the regular circle.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] MonoControl:
That sounds a lot better then what I was trying to say lol
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Rodman101:
Ya I'm using the messaging icon I'll just try reverting and re flashing

I'm feeling serendipitous...

Kernel logo

I'm messing around with kernel stuff and in the process came up with this for a possible kernel logo/splash. There would also be an orange progress bar a la Talon in the black space above "Serendipity w/ OJ".
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Joecascio2000:
I like but I would get rid of the "Serendipity w/OJ" on the bottom. My preference is, the cleaner the splash screen the better. I'm using just the plain SVII one. I can create a few different ones later. Kinda bored again....haha
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Yeah, I added that on at the last minute. The idea behind it was that I wanted Serendipity to be represented in it more than just the covered up logo. I thought without that, it looked like I was just forgetting Serendipity, and it was all about OJ. Maybe I could make two versions.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Joecascio2000:
I would do some different versions. More is better.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bryman27:
Yes definitely, more is better. I could upload a Talon version right now, but first I want to get existz's permission. I'd make a Serendipity kernel version too, but either I can't find it, or ChanceM hasn't released the source. I might end up making a S7-like kernel with basically equal features and throw on the different logos, but that would take time.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Joecascio2000:
Check out the third post in the Svii thread it has a splash screen package that works no matter what kernel your on. All you have to do is make the correct picture (dimensions and file size) and rename it to logo.jpg and that's it. No need to change anything with kernels.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] pittsm:
I absolutely love that splash screen!
