hi,

i'm new with android and the galaxy S2. Your theme looks great but i'm running the original firmware/rom.

The devices is rootet, so can i use your theme or is a custom rom needed?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
which firmware?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] DarkEN_ANGEL:
Hi! installed this theme on LeoMar Rom Revolution 2.7.1 and found a bug.

Battery level was 96% when in status bar battery icon tells me about 47%(battery real level divided by 2 - 1). Is there a way to improove that? Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] gabryp:
the same problem with leomar 2.7.1! any ideas to resolve?

thanks!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] wslfung:
Try flashing revolution super theme first and then this one.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] marse.online:
I love this theme is a KI8 Version planning ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
it's not a bug. i only support VRom with KI3 as i've dropped support for a Universal back at KI4. there are absolutely no issues with VRom compatible theme if you're running VRom 3.0/2.5.

i've been a little too busy to start supporting KitchenROM but this will replace the Universal. it's just easier to get things working like their supposed to when you're working with a whole apk instead of pushing xml/img files to an apk. Universal is also missing a lot of stuff in comparison to the VRom compatible one.

currently there isn't a KI8 on samfirmwares and Pulser isn't supporting it but, as i've said above, i will be supporing KitchenROM and that is at KI8 iirc.

the next release will prob include Kahvitahra's TSM port, which means lockscreens! i've been heavily testing it and it's rather solid imo.

edit: starting on KitchenROM version today. should be up later...

edit: for my personal reference, or for those that wanted to know, the default hex color code for the clock is #bebebe

edit: okay, KitchenROM KI8 version is built, signed and ready to go. i'll upload this later today for you guys that are awaiting it :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
KitchenROM, compatible with KI8, has been added :)

edit: oh anyone wanting a CRT variant of KI8 please let me know.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] yager01:
Hello! Few minutes Ago I installed this beautiful theme to my SGS II. I have XXKI4 ROM with Siyah-v2.0 kernel. I installed this File from my CWM Install any Zip from SD. I downloaded this file from the site:

Universal deodexed TW ROM compatible (KI4)

grrr..I can't post outside links (screenshot) :mad:

I have a problem with my top zone where is the battery indicator and all small icon. This zone is full blurred I cant read nothing... I hope that you understand my problem...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
yes, there are many issues with the KI4 Universal. i've dropped support for it and it is being pulled. if you'd like to use the theme, please either try a KitchenROM or VillainROM. you won't have any issues with either.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] OrangePL:
Hi.

Would it be possible to update this theme to be compatible with CheckROM RevolutionHD V3.1.1 [XWKJ3]?

Excellent ROM, would be nice to use it with the nicest theme.

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
is that a TouchWiz ROM? i see that Samsung widgets/apps were removed... i could possibly create a base for it.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] OrangePL:
Not sure. Probably an option in the Kitchen app to choose it. But you won't catch me using anything than Go Launcher EX ;-)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
okay, i'll look into it but no promises ;)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] OrangePL:
Remember, you're just two clicks shy of 150 thanks... :P
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] TryAgain@xda:
Hi, I tried to flash the KI4 compatibily version, while I have on stock ROM with Siyah Kernel 2.1... The problem is that after flashing, the status bar doesn't appears more. What's my mistake or what's wrong?

Sorry for my english... it's just my first post here... :p

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
as noted in OP:

i'm no longer supporting the Universal theme. there are just too many issues with it. it doesn't work for everything like it should. i'm leaving the link up but

flash at your own risk
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
alright guys, gonna bring out a CheckROM variant and will also be trying to cook Kahvitahra's 11 lock mod in. this should all happen over thanksgiving holiday as i'll be on vacation for 5 days. why so much in such short time? i just ordered a Galaxy Nexus which means i won't be able to test new features, only continue to update for new firmwares.

thanks to everyone here for the continued support. cheers! :)

edit: i haven't abandoned this project yet guys. i've just been rather busy. i still plan on completing this before saying farewell to my SGS2.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] CamoGeko:
Still loving this theme mate, we definitely don't have enough ones like this for us VillainROMmers :p
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] budaletina:
Hi guys, can someone port this gorgeous theme to XW_KL1 stock rom or something custom but simple coz i can`t or dont know, get this work with any rom :mad: thx...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
it's easy to port. i'm a little too busy with other things plus i no longer carry an SGS2. if anyone wants to give it a shot, i'll be more than willing to help. i still have the old file changes, etc.

as my first major theme, i feel bad that i had to drop support for it.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
i'm pretty decent with photoshop. i haven't really had to use it except once so i think i'm okay there. i'm mainly still messing with bringing a few things over. still poking around in Mms.apk...

edit: there is one thing i could use some photoshop help with. i'll PM you the details. just two pngs, though
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] maxxxy:
OK I found the font. but I can only use this theme with the villain??
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] saifbechan:
I see that there are a few people working on this to have it running. I saw a few questions about the mms, but i'm not that experienced yet to answer unfortunately. I am just waiting patiently for this to roll out, there is no hurry. I hope it gets done good tho.

I have stumbled upon a post that looked interesting. Now as I sad I'm not that experienced, but maybe this could be added to the theme. It has something to do with the BLN mms.

Now I do not know where it belongs, if it should be added to the kernel, to the rom, or just completely seperate, but I have a feeling it belongs to the theme.

The link is here, check it out: [MOD] Services.jar mod to allow BLN on stock Mms.apk

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Jiia:
I'm sad that this theme will be for VR KG6 version because Pulser got tired of fixing the laggy browser manually each time, so the latest versions are all crappy. It looks very good though :) Did you change the notification menu background to something more simplistic or are you using the original one? Easily changeable though, just asking.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
this will not be included. it's something you guys can do if you wish. it's a simple modification, though. all you have to do is drag and drop services.jar. i'm only taking care of theme related things and stuff that requires knowledge of de-compiling, where xml is edited.

well, tbh, even when the Browser was working i still used Opera mobile. Samsung's included browser, imo, sucks quite frankly.

notification menu background is the one seen in the screen shot. if you wish to change, that is up to you. again, i'm pulling almost everything from the original, with some minor tweaks here and there. even after release i'm sure i'll hear suggestions to change other things. i'll be closely monitoring feedback. at the same time, i'll try to keep a step ahead of the changes that Antonda is making to his theme on the SGS i9000 side (yes, i've already fixed some things i've seen others mention in his thread).
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] runedrune:
He didn't get tired of fixing anything. The fixes that used to work just end up breaking hardware acceleration now.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Piccles:
Pulser is the man! don't fcuk with him (or his work!) :D
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Olingz:
I was wondering if this theme has changed the default folder design from Twlauncher? Because i really find the original folders in the app drawer ugly..

anyways, keep up the good work ;)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] kaynow:
any plans, when you will release the theme?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
dun mess with pulser. he is a man to be respected. he never tired fixing stuff, and he even answered to certain noobs questions.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
could you post a screen shot of what you're referring to exactly? thanks.

i can't give any specific ETA's at this time other than sometime this week. i'm trying my best to tweak everything visually and then go back and correct stuff that i know looks wrong. this is only stuff i can find through testing since i did not have the pleasure of running this theme previously. right now i'm smashing out work on a few different battery choices right now as well (MIUI, CM7, stock but blue).
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jmcoe86:
Patiently waiting for the release. I need a turbo button for F5.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] D108:
Hi mrvirginia,

Could you perhaps also include circlesmod blue by Hooolm for the battery or something similar, together with APM & CRT & OS. That will work on VillainROM 2.4.2

I do not know if you have the above mentioned in the theme as yet, but judging from the s/shots, you have not :)

Thanx
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
there are currently no plans for CRT or OS. i may incorporate CRT in a later release.

if you'd like me to consider a specific battery set, please leave a link. thanks.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
can we have the batterry as other options? i kinda like the original battery that comes with this theme already. its rare to find like this one.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
original battery that comes with the theme will be installed by default. other options will be in the extras section as a user preferred option.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
Aight cool. I thought u are going to change it.

Nuked from Samsung Galaxy S2 GT i9100 using XDA Premium app
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
i am, but i won't force my personal preference upon anyone. as i've said before, the only minor changes i'm making are where it makes sense to change something.

i've added screen shots for the battery variants under Extras. had to mod a lot of xml for the MIUI style one, as well as the images, so i hope someone likes it lol
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
nice. looks great. btw about EDT, do i install EDT first then this theme?

you did a lot of work, whats not to like, and whats there to complaint. and we would already be grateful even if you dont do extras. now cuz of you, we can happily change to any battery style we wanted. :p
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
it really doesn't matter which you install first. i'm not including the EDT app. i'm just making sure my SystemUI.apk is compatible with it so if a user wants to use it, they have that option.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
alright, for those spamming the F5 button :p

expect a beta release tomorrow...

edit: more screen shots to come tonight
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
yay! spamming f5 from now!! havent shut down my pc for about 10 days now spamming F5!!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ElDiablo77:
Wow this is the best theme I've yet seen 4 the SGS II. I know ur looking for input so the only things I could say are blue instead of green for the wifi, bluetooth etc icons in the blind & the CRT effect + blue OS 2 make it perfect...for me @ least lol. If there was a way 2 add them later using a different .zip like in ur add on section this would work for me.

Also interested to see what the dialer, along with the contacts tab's look like as this is something I really hate about the samsung version.

I know I'm greedy asking for these things but I don't think I'd use another theme after this 1 with those things if I could add them. :)

Ur gonna make a lot of people happy by porting this so thanx for all ur time & effort....I'm gonna look into theming myself now as I feel like a whiny ***** asking for small changes.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
you brought up a couple of good things here.

may do blue toggle icons as an extra add-on in the near future. same for CRT effect. i'll never add an OS, though.

dialer itself looks just like original. will post a screen shot of that later tonight. in regards to the tabs (specifically Clock and Contacts/Phone), they're not perfect but good enough for now. the color of the tab png when selected has a white drop shadow color making the image itself not stand out like it should. i have successfully modified the text at least so you'll be able to see what it says. i'll work on new tab icons for non-beta release.

edit: scratch that, Contacts/Phone tabs will be fixed and most of the Clock will as well. will just have to find a new desk clock tab icon...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ElDiablo77:
Thanx a lot m8 I understand if ur porting a theme then u don't wanna take 2 many liberty's with it. Blue toggles and CRT would b fine as add-on. As for OS I did add it from some1 else on the 2.3 version of Pulser ROM so I will maybe try that. Failing that I'm sure I could seek psychiatric help & maybe eventually I'd get over it lol.

:)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
alright, so EDT is working like a charm (see screen shot with my missing signal bars :p)

gotta run to the store and grab a few things. separate batteries are packaged up and ready to go. just need to pack the theme itself. beta release within the next few hours.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ElDiablo77:
Nice 1 bud.....If I'm up I'll check back in a few hours

:)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
damn. just when i'm about to go to sleep. i hope its there when i woke up. :D

btw, the H+ icon is themed too right? cuz my place always got H+ signal rather than 3G and H.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ElDiablo77:
Hi again...sorry I'm a pest I know but I think the dialer in this thread looks very clean

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=768848

Could something like this be done only using the background from the notification blind?

Maybe as an add-on if it looks good. I just looked @ some theming threads & it's gonna take a while 2 learn if I'm gonna learn 2 myself.

Also found this & wondered if u could fit it into your theme somehow

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1182610

Whoever themed it did not do a very nice job.

Even without these ur (ported) theme's gonna rock
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
to the first link, that's an AOSP dialer. keeping the original most definitely. this isn't my theme. i'm merely porting from what i saw from original creator.

to the second link, i'm sorry i can't help you there either buddy. i would ask the dev to update for KG6. i'd be more likely to consider it then.

btw, beta available for download. all feedback is welcome. please keep in mind that i've never ran this theme on any device previously than the SGSII. there are probably some things still wrong.

there was definitely one color i still saw off (if you have betterybatterystats and open it, you'll see what i'm referring to). i'll fix this over the weekend, as well as any other things you guys catch.

Mms.apk was released pretty much how i had it. if anyone would like to lend a hand there regarding the background being changed to black, please feel free to.

oh, and the ClockPackage.apk changes were just for the tab. there is no desk clock tab icon currently. i'll look into it further. i'm also aware that the other colors within the clock aren't blue... that's because the stock ROM of the SGS1 had blue. may theme this later anyway...

edit: i'll get to any responses early tomorrow morning EST
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ElDiablo77:
No problem I think I need 2 learn a bit more myself anyway.

I know it's a different dialer but I have seen people have used a transparent PNG instead of buttons with an image for the background so just the numbers/letters show & it looks quite cool. I thought because u could port this theme u might b able 2 do it but not 2 worry.

I'm hoping that some1 will sort out that full screen dialer mod as the small pic we are used to could b so much better...like u I would not even know where 2 start tho.

Gonna give this theme a crack soon anyway bud but it may not b until 2moro sometime. Well done & thanx 4 ur hard work.

I can only think the CRT effect is missing & it's difficult to find it in the theme forum without a battery mod of some kind so hope u can do it as an add-on.

Thanx again bud.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ajayjohn:
This is by far the most comprehensive and best looking theme I ever had on my phone! Really appreciate all the efforts you put in to make this theme and thanks a lot for sharing it! :-)

Just a suggestion, would it be possible for you to make the status bar icons change color (maybe blue) when connected to goggles servers? This was typically green in some other mods available.

Mhm...I'm on VR2.4.2 (odexed/deodexed) and after flashing this theme my battery-status isn't visible anymore in the status bar. Also after flashing CM7 battery mod...any suggestions?

Edit: So...with EDT it works now :) Flashed EDT...v Show battery symbol...reboot...WORKS :)

Thx!!

Edit: CRT is gone...mhm...and the pulldown bar isn't themed anymore...strange :D

Edit: So...wiped cache/dalvik cache again...flashed the theme over it again...flashed the battery mod again...now everything works :cool:

Edit: Except CRT :)

Very nice theme!!!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
yay! got my question in the first page(lolz). btw do you any chance have the wallpaper as shown in the homescreen(1st one).
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Kejserjorn:
Hi,

I changed to VillainRom just to get this theme - it looks great!

I just got one problem: The font didn't change when flashing the theme. I tried several times, and did wipe both cache and dalvik. Even tried with a full wipe, but no luck...

Do You know what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks for porting this great theme though. It looks good with standard font, but the one in Your screenshots look sooooo much better :-)

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
sony sketch font is not included in the theme.

Hey Mr. Virginia,

as I didn't like the orange arrows on the data connection I edited them and made them hard red.

Also the icons in the pulldown menu I coloured blue when they're active.

I sent u a pm with the download links and if u want u can add it to your thread.

Could you please include the mms.apk without the sent time instead of received time thing? Because most of the time if my friends have a time set that is earlier than mine, their messages will show up above mine even if i send my message first.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
there is no CRT...

i accidentally left some stuff out that i probably should've included with the first beta. i'm about to get to work on updating to a second beta. it will include everything that i should've included in the first place

i forgot to add the SonySketch font, as well as the other fonts. will be in second beta

i like the blue toggles. may try to include these somehow. it's very tricky making a seperate package for this as it's part of SystemUI.apk meaning if someone wants a specific battery, this gets over written. maybe i'll just make a zip of just the toggles and explain to others how they can manually change them...

i will look into this just for you :p

alright, about to get on a second beta. the second one will include the Sony Sketch font as well as other fonts i left out, and wallpaper.

edit: i may make a non EDT version if i see anyone request it. beta 2 coming shortly...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] runedrune:
Awesome. Thanks. :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Pet1981:
Mhm...noticed that with the CM7 battery mod I don't get the fully charged symbol on the left side of the status bar...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
means it's not fully charged :)

you may see the "full" indication on the right, or rather where battery is, but it's not done yet. leave it and report back in an hr or so please
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
Beta 2 is up. please see Change log (second post) for changes. also attached the wallpaper to OP.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
nice. thread is going fast after released.

btw does the battery extras need to be redownloaded too for every release? cuz i got the habit to download all stuff in one update and would like to know if i only need to download the new bate2 only or includes the 3 extra battery just incase i want to change them.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Pet1981:
No symbol else...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
good question.

no, you don't need to re-download any variations currently. you can flash those back over Beta2 (or any beta) unless i specify otherwise in the OP. i could've made a separate package just for the fonts, but i felt it was a better idea to just make a new beta for any newcomers.

i have added blue toggles as a zip file (do not flash!) for anyone that wants them. credit goes to Pet1981. they are perfect, too. to apply, simply copy the included png image files over to your SystemUI.apk in res\drawable-hdpi. then copy SystemUI.apk back to your system/apps folder. change permissions to rw-r-r and reboot.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
alright, will look into this now...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LuffyPSP:
i see. thank you.

blue toggles is nice, but i'll follow what full package you put in there. thanks for the work. and btw, the wall is great!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ajayjohn:
Could you please tell me if this would be possible to do?

Sent from my SGS2
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mrvirginia:
i could but it would be sorta tacky looking. what i mean by this is that the current fully connected images have some transparency pixels added to the edges (i could duplicate this) but the actual "white" parts are slight variations of a solid white. in other words, the current color that you see is not any one solid color. so making them a solid blue would look a little strange. if i have time today i'm going to poke around in some other themes for things like this. if i can't find what i'm looking for, there is someone here that's really good at using Gimp :)

in short, yes this can be done but i'm looking into tweaking an Mms.apk for Runedrune first.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ajayjohn:
Thanks a lot! Appreciate your prompt reply... :)
