State of affairs on Freehand CirclesMod. I pushed two major'ish updates to Google Play today.

I've got a home screen that looks like this now.

I'm doing a boatload of app customizations right now, but it's taking simply *ages* to hand draw everything :-)

Check it out at http://c0.dk/cmfreehand

I'm more or less done with the system stuff, so what's next? What apps are people using?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Remoteconcern:
Looking better daily.

I think some common apps might be:

Clock

Kindle

Dropbox

Root Explorer

Wikipedia

XDA

Oh, and whatsapp:-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flagellant:
What about an app drawer icon? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iammodo:
Apps I need.

Mini motor, draw something, gta, cut the rope, IMDB all google apps, xda, Facebook,root wiki and appndraw.

Also any chance of the line battery bar at top being drawn?

Looking so good already.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Remoteconcern:
What font is that? Looking really good.

Inspiring me to theme away too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iammodo:
Here is the zip for the font.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ragnarokx:
These would be awesome: Google Chrome, Google Currents, Root Explorer, Light Flow, Dropbox, Tapatalk, Clock (stock app), Calculator (stock app) :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ragnarokx:
Awesome font. Only thing I've found wrong with it is the dash and underscore symbols look almost the same :/

I have flashed the last CM9 nightly and it doesn't seem to be working. The last nightly I flashed before this was the 0516 and it used to be working flawlessly. I figured I should post this here. (I've downloaded them from your website, the file is CirclesMod_GNexus_CM9_Maguro_n20120503_b002.zip)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iammodo:
Any news?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] deenice:
Again does this work on MIUI.US 2.6.1

Anyone taken the plunge and tried this mod out on MUIU standard yet?

thx
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CMNein:
Way to fix the compilation and assets warnings with your latest update to CirclesMod Blue. Hopefully everyone else follows suit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jenkss:
Thanks heaps for this. Looks awesome.

Have bookmarked your site as suggested. Will be keeping up with this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hooolm:
Thanks :)

As of tonight All my CM9 themes are fixed, with added tablet support too :-)

Works great, at least on my Galaxy Tab 10.1

You should bookmark this too :-)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Hooolm

It's where most of my effort goes these days.

I don't support MIUI, so unless MIUI supports standard CyanogenMod 9 themes: No.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] opethrocks:
Any chance for a zipthemer package so we can theme the lockscreen ? Unlock circle, lock screen targets, maybe even the clock??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] imreezm:
Hey man, I installed the blue version form Play store but some of the box/text are dark...um, just refer to the screenshot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hooolm:
Can't reproduce that. Have tried both CM9 and AOKP messaging apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
I'm also running into the dark dialogs with the freehand-theme on AOKP B39. It's also not limited to the messaging app, I'm having the dialogs of my own app going dark even though they should be light. Can't attach screenshots, not enough posts :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hooolm:
Because I assume, without a doubt in my mind, that you've applied the theme and rebooted as instructed, I've chased those issues around quite a bit, and I simply cant reproduce them.

I have read and understood that it happens for you in other apps as well, but as illustrated by the Messaging screens below, all is well on both my devices.

^^ This is CM9 on the june 20 nightly on my SSG3 running Freehand CirclesMod.

Something else must be wrong here, because I use my own themes extensively and I would have noticed, believe me :) ... and last not least because I suspect that at a 1000+ active installs, I would be drowning in bug reports, if these issues were consistent.

But the fact remains, I can't troubleshoot an error that simply refuses to happen here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iammodo:
Does happen on my phone as well I just don't care lol

Also I don't get it from deleting a single text only full thread.

Can't post pic as lots of people's names would need blurring, maybe on lunch I can.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iammodo:
Here is a screen shot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] roboots21:
I notice this hasn't been updated in a while on the play store. I run the Freehand CircleMod Blue and was just wondering if you planned any updates soon for any of your circle mods??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hooolm:
Yeah, absolutely...is the sort answer, but this turns into a state of affairs type thing, so bear with me.

I've recently completed a fresh xml and image base, for red circlesmod and Dark Urges, allowing me to do more complete and comprehensive color mods. That took some time :)

Those will be worked into my green and good themes, to create a better experience.

I *am* planning a freehand update, probably the next major thing on my plate. I need to theme more of the framework for it to feel complete, checkboxes, slider handles and stuff like that. Just keep in mind that hand drawn stuff doesn't scale well at all, so there's definitely a limit to what I can achieve at this stage.

I also have to get a new computer soon. I'm doing all this on an old'ish Macbook Pro that is really struggling with Photoshop Cs6, and taking up to 20 minutes to compile something like Freehand or Dark Urges. That is sort of prohibitive when maintaining 10-15 themes. There's no lemme-just-try-something-real-quick going on here.

Unless someone has a way of making Photoshop cs6 work on ubuntu, I need something like a 15" retina Macbook Pro with the big cpu and as much ram as I can get. Those are in the $4500 price range here in Denmark, so you know...*that* is prohibitive.

But anyway, yeah, I've got stuff going on :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] roboots21:
Wow! Thanks for the quick response .. I look forward to the updates you will be pushing out! Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slballer:
Does any of these work on a rooted stock GN or do I have to flash a rom. I like stock, has everything I need, just love the battery mod...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Wowww it looks even better in person than on the pics.. dude you need to get a f***ing medal for this or something...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bufodill:
did anybody else try it on romans kang rom? I tried the iml74k, as it is what it says in "about phone", but after flashing I only get a screen without menubar and statusbar... :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
Happens to me too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishfan16:
so I'm new to the whole modding thing, how do I combine this with the softkey mod?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Evostance:
No modifications to system files will work on the stock rom. You need a custom deodexed rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] itch808:
Wondering the same
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slballer:
What is the rom that is closest to stock that i can flash, that has everything working, fast and stable?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hooolm:
Mmmno, I don't think so. That's not the style. I break them up into at least 4 segments. Would never be the same.

Thanks. I think :)

If you have clockworkmod recovery, you can flash a zip. If I can get at the proper files (system/app/SystemUI.apk and /system/framework/framework-res.apk), I'm fairly sure I can build on it.

Eehhh...no...hard cash or sexual favors, please...

Any of you have a link to that ROM?

I have succesfully built plenty of Mods for odexed stock firmwares on the Galaxy SII and Galaxy Tab 10.1, so I don't see why not...

From personal experience, AndroidRevolution is good. So is PaulOBrien's from MoDaCo.com. He has a kitchen with UI customizations too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daffyno:
does it work with ir8 release too??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jeff5891:
Is there anyway to only add the circle battery mod. I want to keep everything else stock except for the battery.

That would be awesome if you can make that!! Love everything about my GN so I personally dont want to leave stock for anything less than perfect.

Yeah and meh. I'm not really that into maintaining multiple branches of one mod.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stashtrey:
I too would like to know if this will work with rootzboat
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hooolm:
I'm gonna get back to you if possible.

In the meantime, I'm trying out Android Open Kang Project, which seems ok (I'm gonna let the pink unicorn slide for now), but of course I've added my subtle twist ...

It's just the statusbar icons, but please note that I've shut up the low battery and camera/video sounds, solely for my own benefit. If you don't want this for whatever reason, and/or if it happens to be illegal in your region, simply remove the /system/media folder from my zip before flashing.

Installed and running on the MCR Ir8. Thanks a lot for this great mod!!

However, i can't make it work together with the search bar removal from Djmcnz (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1385425). I am a complete noob and never tried any sort of kitchen customization. Sooo, how could i do that and have both mods running at the same time?

EDIT: problem solved
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evilkal:
You should be able to edit the images directly if you know how. You can take whatever images you like (I borrowed the battery ones heh) and place them in your SystemUI.apk yourself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jprakes:
I would love these if they worked on Rooted stock 4.0.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] magn2o:
First off, thanks for this -- it's great!

I did have a question though.. I'm trying to manually implement this into my own SystemUI.apk and (for the most part) I have it working -- with the exception of some overlap of the WiFi circles (see below):

Obviously I missed something -- perhaps an xml edit? Any help would be appreciated! :D

---------- Post added at 07:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 PM ----------

Nevermind, I think I've found the culprit.. signal_cluster_view.xml. :)

I also ran a diff and noticed that status_bar.xml differs as well.. are the changes there necessary?

For those using AOKP build 13, here's a modified SystemUI.apk. :)

I can confirm this. Just flashed the modaco file on my ARHD 2.1.2 (ICL53F/Verizon) GNex and it looks great! On top of that, I got the search soft button and an extra menu button on the left side, which is exactly what I wanted, but luckily didnt have to go hunting for another mod for this.

Thanks Hooolm for all your work put into this.

CirclesMod_GNexus_RootzBoat_61_b001-signed.zip

Like this?

At some point yeah. But I specifically don't want to build for any and every KANG out there. My preferred solution for CyanogenMod is to make a theme apk that'll work across multiple versions and devices, as I've done previously. I'm sort of waiting to see what team CyanogenMod is going to do with a theming engine for ICS. If they include a cross-version theming engine, I'll do something with it. If not, I'll release for major official versions.

Me too. I'd also love to drink 32 year old Oban scotch out of Aida Yespica's belly button, but hey - if dreams were pennies I'd drive a Jaguar ;)

Necessary no. If I recall correctly, I just nudged the battery icon a little closer to the clock or something like that...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] roboots21:
I had the same exact issue, and I did the same edit you say to signal_cluster_view.xml. Changed the spacing from -6.0 or something to the 4.0 in circlesMod. Thank you Beyond Compare for helping me find the difference haha!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hooolm:
Yeah those negative paddings and margins are sucha fun addition :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] badman0099:
it's different from before, fantastic
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aergern:
This MOD rocks. It makes it so much easier on my old eyes to read the 3G/4G/Wifi icon and it looks awesome on the phone.

I was curious as to if it was possible to get the softkeys at the bottom changed to cyan. Another mod here does this and changes the battery to have a # and small transmit and receive arrows. I don't much care about the arrows but having the cyan softkeys would rock ... problem is that it's one flashable zip or the other which is a bummer since those softkeys with the reflections would LOOK so badass together.

Anyway. Cheers!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hooolm:
Made a few tweaks and updates.

As omniphil on RootzWiki pointed out, bluetooth is an all or nothing kind of thing, and in the name of consistency I've changed it, so the ring is either fully off or fully on.

I've added a modded alarm icon too. As opposed to my gingerbread version, I'm rather happy with it. I never liked my old one, I just couldn't think of anything better that would function at that display density. Now I've got 30% more (just go with it) pixels to work with, and I've built something else around the same style as the ICS clock/alarm app icon. I think it works.

I've also done the sync icon...but see no way of testing it - does anyone know how I can trigger the sync icon on my phone?

I've added new builds that include the changes.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Krijs:
You mean like I have in the attached pic?

All I did for that is download method 4 from [SOFTKEYS] Softkey Collection [GSM/LTE] [Update 04-01] thread, then copy out the SystemUI.apk in the CirclesMod flashable zip into a directory called "SOFTKEY_BACKUP" (this should be in the same directory as the softkey modder, if it doesn't exist, create it). I then deleted the part of the batch file that pulls the SystemUI.apk from your phone and ran it. Obviously put your chosen softkey images in the "PUT_IMAGES_HERE" directory before running this.

After that, I got the modified SystemUI.apk located in FLASH_THIS/gn_softkey_mod.zip and pasted it into the CirclesMod flashable zip. Pushed it to my phone and flashed it. All done :)

edit: If you have CirclesMod on your phone already, you should just be able to run the softkey modder without any changes to the batch file. Just drop your new softkey images in the respective directory, hook your phone up to PC via USB and hit the batch file then flash the gn_softkey_mod.zip file it creates.

Oh and thanks for the mod Hooolm, looks great!

I'm not a noob ont he topic of flashing and such, but i've only had my nexus for a few weeks and this will be the first mod (except for root of course) on this phone. My old SGS1 has no stock recognisable features :D

BUT

How do i flash this theme on this phone when I don't know which version to download from the first post. I'm running 4.0.2 build ICL53F. Please don't laugh... too hard

As soon as I flash that circle mod for aokp 14 I loose my navi and status bar
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hooolm:
Generally regarding the requested fully stock 4.0.x builds. I need framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from those versions. If it's a custom ROM, I just download the ROM and extract the needed files, but I can't do that with OTAs. Furthermore I have no idea if, say, stock 4.0.2 for maguro and toro are identical, so I'd probably need files for each 4.0.x for both the toro and maguro hardware. I don't think there's one true answer there, and whatever the case may be I can only build on what I've got, and I haven't had stock anything since ten minutes after I unpacked my device :)

I usually don't go back to re-mod older versions, unless it's a huge and less frequently updated ROM. I have a fairly efficient build setup but it still takes time, and I do prioritize the Android stuff after my wife, son, extended family, work, friends - alongside my other hobbies. I don't even code or design for a living :)

I may also do new versions but forget to post them here, so keep http://holm.st/android/?vl=gnexus bookmarked ;)

I had that as well at first. There is a subtle change in one of the /res/layout/ files...I forget which one ... :)

In case of technical issues I'm (de/)compiling using the latest nightlies of Apk Multi Tools. In the latest versions you might need to place an updated aapt in a %PATH% folder.

If you've only rooted and nothing else, you'd be on stock non deodexed ICL53F. I don't have a version for that. See 1st paragraph in this post ;)

Yep, it flashes between a lightning bolt and the percentage to signify that it's charging, and how far it's gotten :)

It's been suggested before. I'll do it when I get the time :)

Depends what version you've flashed and when. I committed stat_sys_alarm.png on Jan 5 at 16:32 GMT+1. Anything built after that time includes the modded icon.

First things first, my version works without issues. It changes the /system/app/SystemUI.apk file in whatever ROM I modify. If you're on another mod that also features a modified SystemUI.apk, you lose those changes when flashing mine, and vice versa.

As the softkey buttons are also in SystemUI.apk (res/drawable-xhdpi/ic_sysbar_back.png etc), That's probably what's happening to you. No solution for that other than merging the mods.
