As much as I love LA2, I'm going to have to revert back to KL1 just for your theme dude, will await 1.9 and flash all fresh.

Looking forward to the email :-)

@Vertumus

just been scanning through the Hyperdroid thread and it would appear that there are themeing options available. This one appears to be universal to any rom

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=21059765

and this somehow incorporates JKay

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1382057

I know your extremely busy with V1.9 but thought these maybe of interest for the future releases.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AvRS:
The first is what I'll be following once Vert releases v1.9 and the second I wouldn't use because it's at the cost of features and doesn't mention if he's themed the lidroid parts which Noed has:

I started looking previously and found the framework changes but apparently Noed has left JKay's framework mods in touch while still getting it to work with XILA2. There's no point in me continuing until Vert releases 1.9 and if I get it working and he doesn't mind me sharing it I will but will be with my modifications as won't be doing multiple versions that I don't use (I'm helpful just not that helpful :p).
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] anaraxia:
I thought the first would be the better of the two options. I havent yet had the time to sit and look at the differences, had to fix my laptop and havent got to installing anything as yet.

Not sure if i will be capable of making all the changes needed to get Verts theme working but certainly going to take time to look and learn. If you are willing to share your work, providing Vert is ok with that, i may use that too as a base to learn what and where the differences are.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mynamesteve:
If anybody is using jkay on LA2 they are mixing old base framework files with LA2 base, this is a fact.

i saw no where that this was how it works in that thread. It so misleading.

This is not as well known as it should be, If its not realease by jkay we wont have jkay.

Everything works the same png wise pretty much (xml + stuffs different story) but you have an extra apk to theme system/framework/lidroid-res.apk. this controls most of the notification bar but he has renamed items so you cant just copy them in there from framework and systemUI.

Hope this clears things up a little if you didnt know ;)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Vertumus:
I am thinking I would only have to do framework and systemui for XILA. Other apps I do not have to change at all
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] :
you are correct my friend.:) those two are the main obstacles from your theme working;)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] aashgaur:
how to remove mods ? before installing new theme ?

HELP !! :(
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] veyka:
1) how the hell are we supposed to know what rom you are running or anything, more info or don't bother posting.

2) consult your rom thread about removing mods, this thread, the theme, not "how do I remove the mods and theme from winzip rom number 29393747"

3) try searching or maybe even thinking before you post.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] longtins:
if you are running checkrom, download the "theme restore package" from the kitchen app, but don't install right from the app.

reboot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache then flash the theme restore package and reboot. then Viola should have no problems flashing this awesome theme.

Hi, does anyone of you having trouble changing the font using font installer? It happened when I installed v1.8. After installing v1.8, the font installer no longer works. Any idea why?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Harsha Raj:
Why you use font installer? You can change the fonts by going to settings>display>screen display>font style.

Edit: guess that app is has many features including ability to download the fonts in app itself?

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AvRS:
What you will get is people say, when I looked it was at 99% and now it's not being released till Sunday so does that mean it's back to 0% lol

Either that or what's different in the 99% version :p

I got bored so I'm in the process of flashing HyperDroid v6 and going to test my modified 1.8 to see if I'm managed to theme lidroid properly as that was pretty easy it's just the rest lol
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ITRC:
Dooh... I was so happy when I saw the ICS boot logo on my device, but on homescreen there was 'error statusbar' and turned into boot again. Had to do backup ...

Now i read in previous post the XXKI4 need a deodexed rom such as Checkrom wich I had yesterday but with same results ... :confused:

The smoothness from checkrom with the look of ICS is SO NICE.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] fzc:
im a newbee..can this be installed on stock xxk14?? if not which rom is perfect for themeing and is close to stock?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ITRC:
hi, read my previous post... you need deodexed rom.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AvRS:
Are you on a really old CheckROM then to be on KI4? See notes below.

If you're going to flash a custom ROM you may as well flash one of the latest bases which in this case for full functionality of the theme would be KL1 and in specific HyperDroid works like a charm. The latest v6 won't work but v5 will so I'd recommend that one. Obviously you could also go with CheckROM as lots of people have had it working on v4 of that.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jermitano:
cant wait for the new release later...any teasers for the new release? sure hope we get surprised and the new one supports xila2 builds (well probably a little on the long shot as jkay still hasnt made a new version of his awesome deluxe sets)...hope some cwm mods get implemented on the universal zip...friends are drooling over my current set theme...convinced 5 buddies to void their warranty, root, custom and get this theme...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Harsha Raj:
Same here! One of my friend who vowed never to root his phone changed his mind to root just for this theme :D

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] fzc:
thank you for the quick reply.. i just wanted to ask if checkrom is a stable rom and cant it b flashed without wiping ma data like contacts and messages. if not, how do you backup your contacts and messages and then restore them back on your phone? which version is better 2.0 or 3.1.1??
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Fir3blade:
And 2.0 will be for Android 4.x.x, right :p ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AvRS:
Oh ok you said you were using XXKI4. Which theme version did you use 1.8 universal? Being on CheckROM you will have to flash the theme restore package as explained recently by someone else. Do that and then flash the theme and it should work. Actually may aswell wait for 1.9 to save flashing multiple times.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ITRC:
I'm back on stock with cf-root now ... base XXKI4.

I read maybe KL1 is better/newer...

And yes, i forgot, it was universal 1.8 ...

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] gr4ndm4st3r_bl4ck:
There is something that came to my attention earlier when I was messing with the .zip of your theme.

I was always wondering why your theme is 30MB+ in size, and I was sure vrtheme zips shouldnt be that large.

I'm not sure if you know this Viktor, maybe you have your reasons to do it. Let's take the TouchWizLauncher30.apk for example.

I can see that you included all the pngs found in the drawables-hdpi folder from the original .apk into your vrtheme TWL30 folder.

The fact is , you don't need to have all .pngs included, you only need to insert those you actually modded or edited somehow, with a correct name ofcourse.

For example, if in the entire TouchWizLauncher30.apk you modded only the List View icon from the app drawer then you would only need to have

vrtheme/system/app/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/

and only

ic_menu_list_view.png inside it.

The way it is now, the vrtheme installer copies all those pngs over the existing ones, which are apsolutely the same.

The same goes for .xml files too, and any other files, you only need to insert those you actually changed.

That's why installing your theme from CWM Recovery takes so long , and that's why the first boot takes so long too.

I'm quite sure you have done the same with every other apk you modded, that's why your theme is so big in size and not optimized.

I'm quite surprised no one noticed this before.

I hope I made it clear what I am talking about, and I hope you take this into account, it would make everyone's life a bit easier :D

If you have any questions, please pm me.

Thank you, you're great! :D

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Napzter:
Hi Vert,

can I still have hope for a 1.9 version without the ICS menu icons? Many apps use their old big GB menu icons, so there's a mix in most apps. This doesn't look so good. :( It would be so nice if you also provide a version without ICS menu icons.

With the theme restore package from Checkrom's kitchen we can get back the original theme with the old big menu icons and after that perhaps flash your 1.9 without the ICS menu icons. Please.

Thank you very much. Can't wait for the new release. Great job, master.

You need to flash a deodexed Rom, custom or stock but without any other mods or theming..

Make sure the Rom you choose not an "LA2" based...

Hypedroidv5 & CheckRom v4 are both good choices to use with this theme.. ;)

@Vertumus

I've noticed there's a black download button when receiving an MMS.

If I'm correct it's named: btn_download_X.9.png (or something similar, there are three files).

It resides inside Mms.apk.

Thought I'd let you know before your next release.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AvRS:
You could always modify the package as and how you see fit, that's how I started learning after my first png based version to now. I sort by modified date and then I know what's actually been changed and what hasn't so only have to copy over the new bits and change any bits for my preference.

After a while it becomes habit and you can do it in little to no time. I've also been using the template put up by jrsoft and intronauta (I think that's their names) as gives some useful options like viewing an install log which highlights any failed theming. Most learning will come from trial and error so I'd suggest just go for it, you won't look back :D

download vrtheme template from hyperdroid thread in the first page. if that is the template AVRS is talkign about
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] shayne77:
The old method was to take the Stock APK and unpack it, modify the contents and then pack it again. You would then flash that modded APK over the top of your existing one, meaning it over-wrote any other mods you may have as well that relate to that same APK.

VRT, "patches" the files needed for the mod.. in other words, it unpacks the APK on your phone, (while flashing) adds the PNG and XMLs (or other content) located within the flash file and then repacks the APK again.. all on your phone.

The important bits are;

The PNG's

The related XML's. (If you add more PNG's and/or XML's to the APK, you must also modify the resource.arsc file to tell the APK that those extra content/resources are there... otherwise, it won't see them and/or will just not work, full stop)

The "update-script" file - this is where the flashing process takes place. You can add/remove commands and/or text that the user is displayed etc

You don't need to sign system files, only data files. (user type files)

The rest of them, you can pretty much leave alone for basic flashable files.

I use a different method called Universal Flashing Tool. (It is based on VRT but adds a couple of features)

Which version of the theme did you flash over what rom? Odexed or deodexed? If you did everything properly meaning the right version over the right rom you could wipe data from recovery. That should boot your phone.

Provided that you made a nandroid backup as advised, you could restore your data using titanium afterwards.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] AvRS:
I've done the same with png's and that shouldn't cause an error unless you get the names wrong or adding files that didn't exist in the first place. Only time I've had problems booting so far is when playing with getting the theme on HyperDroid v6 without JKay. Got stuck with phone and SystemUI so gave up for a little bit and might try again some other time. Next thing for me will be learning to edit xml's and associated parts.

It's the Universal Flashing Tool as said below which there's info on in the VRTheme thread (sorry haven't got a link but it's in D.O.C's sig if you find a post by him then go to the end and work back as its near the end somewhere.

EDIT: Here's a useful post with lots of info about it which includes a link to the forum they're on working on it. Glad I checked as the version I'm using is 2 variations old lol

thanks in advance:)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] :
hyperdroid already supports mdpi so no need for you to do anything. regarding changing the edge glow i am pretty sure its xml that you need to play with. how you do that though is beyond what i know. regarding the text again that is to do with xmls. look under systemui.apk i think and it should be in the folders there. sorry for not giving much info but as a first reply to your question hopefully someone can expand more on what i have gave you.:) good luck anyway

Flashing over CheckRom V4 shouldnt cause any issues, running that setup perfectly, but really be aware if your having any mods on in advance flashing this, will cause problems - remeber boot will take some time, let it work for 10ish min, people reported that before.

In checkrom you got alot of mods you could've flashed, make sure all are gone, easiest way is making an all new flash of the rom. If its just the theme, use the restore package from the kitchen app ;)

This theme doesnt work on stock rooted rom;)
