Push the globe when your TP is connected, then go to "Themes" tab. Searching Touchpad only has the two themes mentioned here though. After you choose to install, make sure to reboot Luna, either via device or Linux commandline option "reboot luna".
[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
I wish that was possible too... In those areas, the only way to change the appearance is to swap images. I'm not able to edit the code that controls it. :(
[TouchPad General] reggie cheeks:
Garrett I'm loving the new theme. Glass has been great and is still on the girlfriends but the blackness is my preferred. Thanks for the updates too. Can't wait for lockscreen:) 20cents in paypal so I'll owe you,)
[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that Metro Effect Suite was updated to v0.5.1. :)
[TouchPad General] martin0285:
You seem to be the only one working on themes for webOS!! Thanks and they look great!!

I think this should be a sticky, so that users can find it through all the garbage here in the general section... Or alternatively, Garrett could start a thread with all his themes?? Up to the mods I suppose....
[TouchPad General] Adonis K.:
I might make one too. Im still waiting for my touchpad to arrive so i cant work on it yet.
[TouchPad General] martin0285:
Man, I love the new metro theme Garrett! The justype app is awesome!!

You even themed the keyboard didn't you? Is there no way to theme just the keyboard? Like use metro for system theme? and independently theme the keyboard?

If you haven't tried it... check it out guys... metro is hoooooot!

[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
I suppose I'll make dedicated threads for my themes. Since there's no "apps and themes" forum for the Touchpad, I'll make the threads in this forum. :)

[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
Thanks! Yea, the keyboard is themed too in this theme. Unfortunately, you can only have one theme installed at a time. If I built the ipks manually, you could have multiple themes installed. That's a lot of work that I don't feel like doing right now though... lol
[TouchPad General] Nburnes:
I think the metro theme is great tbh. Only problem I have with it, is the blue icons on search. >.< Idk why, I just don't dig them.
[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
You can change the tile colors if you have the Tweaks app installed. :)
[TouchPad General] Nburnes:
Idk the color codessssssssssssssssss :(

Edit: In hex eh?

Edit2: Chyea, got them purple now thanks to this. http://www.webmonkey.com/2010/02/color_charts/
[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
:D

I could have made up a list of predefined colors, but I decided to let the user enter their own hex color codes. It's more complicated, but it allows for tons more color choices. :)
[TouchPad General] beardedspoooon:
Looks good dude. Keep it up. :D

Someone just needs to figure out how to change the system font.

My lockscreen:
[TouchPad General] viewliners:
I used webOSQuickinstall and found Metro Effects Suites.

After it installed, I unplugged the USB cable and did a device

restart.

However, there was no change to the launcher and lock screens.

Where can I find the setting menu to make changes?

Thanks! :)
[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
Thanks man. I've been making webOS themes for over two years now. I know my way around the system. lol. Changing the system font should be pretty easy actually. Just put your font in /usr/share/fonts/ then edit the global CSS files to use your new font. It won't work everywhere (like the device menu) since some elements specifically call for the default Prelude font...
[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
Right now, there aren't any changes to the lock screen. The launcher should be a solid black though...
[TouchPad General] Warpedflash:
Hmm trying to install the Metro Effect Suite from preware It fails and I get the following IPKG log.

[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
Looks like you already have a theme installed. Did you remove any themes before trying to install Metro Effect Suite?
[TouchPad General] Warpedflash:
I didnt have any installed as far as I know... tried to install it over the stock touchpad one.

How would I remove this theme? just delete the folder referenced in the log?
[TouchPad General] xterminater07:
So if I have the Glass Effect Suite theme, I have to uninstall that before installing a new one? Is there a app that let you select which theme you want? Kinda like Winterboard for the iphone?

[TouchPad General] beardedspoooon:
How do you package these things into an installable theme? I wouldn't mind sharing my lockscreen clock images. And do you have any idea where the text in the status bar can be manipulated? I want the text to be white to match the icons I want to use for wifi and what not.

Found where I can make some changes to some fonts in the menu, and I suppose I could brute force a font change in the system menu by replacing all of the Prelude fonts. :D

dropbox with clock numbers: http://www.dropbox.com/gallery/22683305/2/TouchPad/Clock?h=f8015e

check mark shows up when you tap the icon. :D
[TouchPad General] docnas:
That looks preety nice.
[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
@beardedspoon

The only option is to use Prethemer to build your theme package. It's pretty terrible though... We don't have any good ways to build and distribute themes.

Afaik, there is no way to alter the text in the statusbar since its built into a binary.

Yes, you need to uninstall your current theme if you want to install a new one.

even if your on the stocker? Had a similar issue (unable to load http://...) with no theme installed.

FIX: ended up grabbing the .ipk from description link and ran the "add file" feature...got an error but it worked.
[TouchPad General] tazzpatriot:
stupid question,, been trying to uninstall a theme but cant seem to do it,, any ideas? sorry for the noob question :o
[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
No, not if you're on on the stock "theme". You only need to do that if you're using a 3rd party theme. :)

You can find your installed theme in Preware in the "Installed Packages" list. Tap on the theme then tap Uninstall. :)
[TouchPad General] ickna11:
How would I go about packaging a theme into a .ipk?

I can't figure it out for the life of me... :/
[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
You use Prethemer. Since it's so outdated, you need to manually define the image locations though. Everything you need is under the "Files" tab.

btw, I like your Grim Glass theme. :D
[TouchPad General] ickna11:
I added all the files, now what? :P
[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
Now in the Details tab, enter your theme details. Make sure "Show in Feeds" is checked and the theme is set to online. Then click save. Your theme should show up in the Prethemer feed shortly after. Sometimes it take up to 30 minutes tho...
[TouchPad General] ickna11:
I did that and it doesn't add any of my pics...
[TouchPad General] ickna11:
Does anyone know how to package a TouchPad theme into a .ipk?
[TouchPad General] Garrett92C:
Did you manually upload all your images? You can't use Jason's Theme Builder.
[TouchPad General] ickna11:
That is exactly what I did, I uploaded each one individually.
[TouchPad General] bisto321:
Hi all,

Been trying to get a green theme together for mine - couple of screens of progress so far below.

Having trouble getting all the fonts to 'go green' managed to crack a few of the menu ones but can't get a handle on the status bar ones for the clock and titles - can't find a css file that seems to touch them :(

Can somebody tell me how stupid I am and let me know where the status bar font colour is controlled?

Got lots of the menu list icons green (more done since images), new Wifi, new battery and made a nice green digital clock for the lock screen - these seem to be reasonably easy - just really want a green font now.

Any help would be much appreciated.

update: Just read through thread again and spotted comment (this time, doh!) about status bar font being 'hard coded' - is this really true?
[TouchPad General] Seanbest:
beardedspooon where did you get those icons?
[TouchPad General] eliot.nebos:
Theme/UI mod

I've been floating around for some time (along with a lot of others, I think) looking for options for "sweetening up" the interface for my Touchpad a bit. From what I read about the attempts of others, it wasn't something that existing tools could handle. So... I decided to grab the power tools and dig in.

Far from a finished project, but as I'm taking a few days break from the whole thing after many hours labored in the last couple weeks, I decided to post and maybe give those that had some desire to do something of this scope some hope that it can be done.

So, I bring you the first images of...

FlynnOS - aka TRONPAD

photobucket.com/flynnOS

(sorry, can't do the URL, 8 post thing has me denied - you'll have to copy/paste)

There are many weak points that I need adjust, namely the icons (have several different "builds" of them), and I'm trying to do some text replacements in the binaries for different hardcoded menus and such. And be somewhat forgiving, I'm not even noob level when it comes to Photoshop. And all but 2 of the images in this were done from scratch, with the exception of the base elements that I simply "glowed-up".
[TouchPad General] nunjabusiness:
Impressive start. Just watched Tron:Legacy the other night so I was remembering the stuff from the original one too. Loved it then, loved the new one too. Screw critics, I like what I like.

I still say you GOTTA change the "Just Type" prompt to "Greetings, Program!" to really capture the feel on the idle screen.

I can post links so ... here is the slideshow: http://s1195.photobucket.com/albums/aa389/csnomad/Flynn%20OS%20aka%20TRONPAD/?albumview=slideshow
[TouchPad General] beardedspoooon:
Deviantart I think. I can let you know for sure next time I'm on my pc.
[TouchPad General] eliot.nebos:
Thanks for the kind words nunja, and double thanks for the active link.

I actually was considering the "Greetings, Program!" for Just Type before, but as I'm was looking into a JT makeover as well, put it to the side since it's essentially a seperate element from the areas I was modifying. Also I had heard how anything but changing the string was a real you-know-what.

Having spent the greater part of a couple weeks pretty much living in Photoshop, I'm taking a bit of a breather, but I'll be back to it. Currently bouncing around a few ideas for icon makeovers - particularly something that can be script-applied to do quick updates on icons for new apps I pick up. Right now, I'm working on injecting a replacement for "HP webOS" on the top bar, with little luck yet. Damned hardcoded elements!

And beardedspooon, I humbly bow to your graphic artistry... you've got some insane icons there. Any hints how how you accomplished the outlines and neon'd them? Stroke, manual selection + deletion? Probably trade secrets, but have to ask anyways :D
[TouchPad General] beardedspoooon:
LOL, forgot. Icons are called Flurry. Either at Deviantart or that Android icon thread.

I Doubt Anyone Can Help With A Vague Question. I See Manage Applications, Theme, And Inverted. Can You Give More Information About What Your Seeking?
[Motorola Droid X2] xkape:
I am using the Droid X2 running Eclipse 2.2. I have themed the settings.apk file. All is well except when I click on "Manage Applications" from inside settings. This tells me that Manage Applications is a separate app than settings. It just shows up in the settings menu. Much like Angry Birds would show up in the App Drawer even though its not part of appdrawer.apk.. or whatever its called.

I am trying to find the file in system/app that controls "Manage Applications".

That there is about as specific as I can get.
[Motorola Droid X2] jeremy46er:
Xkape, where did your inverted theme go? Since our recovery requires ac power I didnt want to chance an outage with Irene doing her thing.

I love dark themes and the inverted theme looked awesome. Hopefully you pulled it to tweak something, unless I am completely blind and I'm just missing it.
[Motorola Droid X2] xkape:
jeremy, i never posted it here. I did at Droidforums and at rootzwiki. But, now I am updating it to 0.4 since that came out today. Eclipse I mean.

Bump...anyone figure this out yet? Im trying to change text colors in manage applications on eclipse .2.2 because its white text on white BG
[Motorola Droid X2] xkape:
Yeah I got it figured out. I didn't see the code in the xmls so.. I just made my own. Works fine. you need to add android:textColor="#ff000000" if you want the text black. Stick any code you want in there though.
[Motorola Droid X2] Planters76:
What xml's did you use to change the text color for the app name? I have look over manage_applications and manage_applications_item and found nothing. In manage_applications you can change the text color from black to white but that is only for Application Storage and Internal Storage located at the bottom. In the running section everything turn out perfect but not in the downloaded, all and media area have black text.

Guys as the title tells, can someone experienced enough create a sticky thread for listing all the custom roms and kernels that are available for our galaxy s2?

And also regularly updating it when new roms are released. It will be much helpful.

As i dont have enough time regularly im not in a position to do that.
[Galaxy S II General] B3311:
It hasn't happened yet for a good reason - there's still a debate about what can be defined as a custom ROM and what can't.

I find it relatively easy to look at the headlines rom XXX v1.2 .

Any list is going to be meaningless unless it had a full and active update of the actual improvements on that version .

Some roms are not going to fit into any pattern particular Kitchen roms with multiple builds.

[HTC EVO 3D] Perfecteagle:
I just recently purchased both Sprinkle and Chainfire 3D Pro out of the market trying to get them both to work together. I realize that in Chainfire I need the Tegra patch, which I have, because I am able to play games like Galaxy On Fire 2.

The problem I am having is that in Sprinkle it will not get past the title splash screen. I've tried every combination of settings I can think of, but still no luck. So I turn to XDA for help.

So obviously I'm outside of the return policy for Sprinkle, but I can't imagine I'm the only person who wants to play this on their EVO 3D, so if anybody has any solutions to make this work please respond and let me know. Maybe a shader package or something? (I don't know how to even start trying to compile something like that...)

Currently, I have installed bang bang racing. waiting for a plugin, same with sprinkles. If anyone manages to find the solution helps placed here.

I do not understand it takes so long to update these problems to chainfire3D guess have to wait.:(
[HTC EVO 3D] dipje:
It's not really a problem with chainfire3d, more with the NVIDIA plugin which isn't made by chainfire. And it could very well be a limitation on the hardware side. Sprinkle for example is made to place certain code on different CPU cores. If you only have one core, it will probably crash. Also, the plugin just reports your device as being a Tegra, it doesn't make it one.

The tegra chips have certain OpenGL extensions other chips don't. If the game uses these, you're out of luck, even if your device is in theory faster.

The plugin would have to be extended to offer emulation for the tegra specific OpenGL extensions, and I doubt that will be done quickly. Even if someone makes it, it will probably crush performance.

I'm hoping sprinkle and bang bang will work eventually on my sensation. In the mean time I will have to use my eeePad.

Has anyone else extracted the apk itself?

I took a look at the AndroidManifest.xml file, and it seems that is where the 'not running' problem actually may lie... Here's a screenshot of it:

View attachment 710399

I'm guessing the line that requires the default hardware resources check that is set to "=true" may just need to be changed. Anyone else more experienced than me care to take a look and offer an opinion?

I haven't tried to adjust it correctly yet, as editing xml files is something I don't know how to do. (yet, lol).

Anyway, thanks for looking...

wow nice find. it may work after editing that file... I hope someone finds a fix for it soon.
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
Anyway, thanks for trying this. There may be more than one flags that cause it to crash, but, from the logcat, the most obvious one to me is that it's only detecting a single core running. Why, I don't know, but I'll flash a dual-core-by-default kernel in a little bit just to see if that doesn't solve it. (unless someone else has already tried this, and if so, please lmk..)
