Congratulations :-)

Did you get it for your work for Android or did you participate in a contest?
[Android Themes] XDA mark:
Excuse my comment, I was getting pissed about whatsapp giving me the "there is a newer version" when opening and hoped that your new version would solve that. Anyway, I just pressed update and it I thought my theme would be gone, but weird as it is your Dark theme is still on my phone and I dont get the message anymore.

I fully understand your point of view and I agree people like you should be thanked (at least, donations via your XL versions are even better). I just mis interpreded your message when you said that about the 13000 thanks, I got the idea you are holding back new versions until you get more thanks. All the thanks will come to you mate by time! :)

Anyway, since I dont get that anoying whatsapp message anymore all is good.

Again, I thank your for the work you have done! ;)
[Android Themes] Yorzua:
"there is a newer version"

I got over 66 000 visits for my google website Androidbyyorzua.com :D

My versions are newer than the market one so the reason why so many people get this annoying message "there is a newer version"means basically that the whatsapp apk you have first installed in your phone is OLDER than the market one.

Since you "desinstall" whatsapp, you still get my whatsapp apk which dont ask anymore for an update as it is newer than the current apk. :)

Already explained but here it is a simple tip for those who cant manage to play with apk's ....

==> you can use TitaniumBackup to unlink whatsapp from the market updates in settings ( works the same for all the apps ) and then it will stop to ask you for an update available :D

You can revert the process when you want :p

I knew you would like that Thanks Button Image, I thought about you whenever I was editing it for a banner ;)

I have it with a Black background with white text and with a Red button also.
[Android Themes] Tyrol:
Yeah, thanks doesn't take anything from the user.

Wow, that's really kind of you, thank you. I don't mean to pressure you or anything, I just thought it looked pretty sweet in your mockups :)

Congratulations on the voucher too!

Thanks !!

Looks awesome!!
[Android Themes] Tyrol:
Thank you very much for this! Looking really sweet. If I may, I'd like to make a few suggestions, but it's up to you if you want to implement them. :)

- Font of previews of current chats are grey, kind of hard to read. White or black may be more discernible.

- I love the green and blue chatboxes in the chatroom, but the colours are a little too 'solid' for the main interface. Just my opinion, maybe I if the png were 'flatter' and had a bit of transparency & not solid & kind of curved like it is right now.

- A bit of transparency in the chatboxes perhaps would be the icing on the cake. Not so much like in your Dark/ICS theme but a biiiit of transparency might look nice. I'm no expert but it's just what I'm imagining.

Of course, it's just my personal opinion so I'm not complaining. Very appreciative of your work, wish I only knew how to theme too. Thank you once again! :)

Yorzua does all this Amazing work for FREE, he is not asking for Donations to download his Themed Applications all he is asking for is a SIMPLE THANKS. Its not "BEGGING" its called common courtesy, its not that hard to do or doesn't cost anything to do it. JUST CLICK THE BUTTON, that's not asking much at all. Whenever someone does something for you the polite thing to is say THANKS to them for doing it. He spends his personal time doing this so others here can enjoy it, he doesn't do this so people can come on here and knock him. Its like Yorzua stated in his post "His App is already updated ahead of the Market Version" so stop BEGGING for updates, he can release his updates whenever he thinks it's time to release it. If people like you would quit "BEGGING" him for updates and start "THANKING" him for what he's doing then he would probably have his updates posted. He does this for FREE so enjoy what you got (WHICH IS ALREADY BETTER THEN THE MARKET VERSION) and THANK the man for his work and if that's to much to ask the stick to using the MARKET VERSION and post your "BEGGING FOR UPDATES COMMENTS" in the Market.

@YORZUA you do a Great Job on these Themes & keeping them updated, sorry for such a long post but people posting things like that really get under my skin and I had to say something. I hope you will continue to do your Great Work so we can enjoy it, while CRXed continues to be left behind use the terrible looking Market Version, I will be using the Amazing Looking YORZUA Version that always is steps ahead of the rest.

The message doesn't come from the market, but from WhatsApp itself and leads to their homepage. It appears everytime you open the app.
[Android Themes] Kurupt1:
Thanks for the sig and apps yorzua!

PS let me know if you got my email, was not sure it went through.
[Android Themes] CRXed:
Obviously, you have never read my posts.:rolleyes:

I have never BEGGED for anything. I only mentioned some suggestions and the version-bug which he immediately fixed. I THANKED him for that. So you have not noticed that I have THANKED Yorzua MANY times.

I know he does everything for FREE, that is what XDA is all about. But I have not seen a developer holding back updates/threatening not to update because he isn't getting enough Thanks. That is NOT the spirit of XDA.

Sure, this app is ahead of the Market version, but it is very easy to download the recent version yourself from the Whatsaspp website.

@Yorzua, I have updated to the Whatsapp website version (not the Market version). Have you also noticed that annoying sound when sending messages?

It seems that Whatsapp is trying to mimic Apple with sending sounds, I hate it!

So I have rolled back to an older version to avoid this sound.
[Android Themes] californicated:
Don't you lose the theme?
[Android Themes] Yorzua:

You're welcome my friend ☼

You mean this message : "a tie between ICS and Dark" ?

Would be an awesome DARK-ICS version and i got plenty of ideas ..

I wish to have a team of devs like whatsapp have for that :p

For sure you lose my xml/smali tweaks + all drawables... back to the borring ! :cool:
[Android Themes] californicated:
Too bad :( But thanks for your answer :)

I have a small tipp for users getting annoyed by the update message. Just press "update", the installation will fail and you keep Yorzua's WhatsApp. The update message won't appear again :D
[Android Themes] akshaybz:
Looks nice...

Downloaded two different ones...none of them worked :(

I have a Micromax A70 running 2.2.1 froyo, i uninstalled stock app first and then installed yours...

There is no icon on the app and the name reads "com.whatsapp" and it just force closes when i open it.

Any solution?
[Android Themes] Tyrol:
I think it's an issue with Froyo. You should upgrade to Gingerbread if possible, and try again. A previous user reported this problem too and fixed it by upgrading to GB, if I recall correctly.

You're totally correct, not running Froyo since ages but all feedbacks are reporting ok on Gingerbread and ICS.

[Android Themes] Tyrol:
Thank you. :) I'm too infatuated with your work on W8 Whatsapp right now to switch, but I thought you definitely deserved at least that much! :D

Speaking of W8 Whatsapp, I'm not sure if it's my ROM's applied theme clashing with Whatsapp, but hyperlinks that I send are just a smidge lighter than the shade of blue used for chatboxes, which makes it pretty hard to see. Here's a screenshot of what I mean. It's that same shade of blue on green for hyperlinks in incoming chatboxes too, which is easier to make out than blue on blue, but another colour might work better.

Hyperlinks color is definetly related to your rom _ in fact in :

<style name="TextAppearance">

<item name="textSize">16.0sp</item>

<item name="textStyle">normal</item>

<item name="textColor">?textColorPrimary</item>

<item name="textColorHighlight">@color/text_selection_color</item>

<item name="textColorHint">?textColorHint</item>

<item name="textColorLink">#ff5c5cff</item>

<style name="TextAppearance.Inverse" parent="@style/TextAppearance">

<item name="textColor">?textColorPrimaryInverse</item>

<item name="textColorHint">?textColorHintInverse</item>

<item name="textColorLink">#ff0000ee</item>

Very easy to change and can save you from all themes colors similar to your current rom ;)

Hi there people,

I've started a petition in Change.org hopping that Microsoft listen to it.

Let me be clear about it:

I am not asking to neutralize Metro, as I understand it is the only way to have a proper Windows, fully funtional, into a Touch device, such tablets or laptops.

I am only asking to let us decide if we want Metro activated or not in Desktop PCs. Today's world is made of decisions. Let us decide on our own what we want.

We will all have the same Kernel, same core and same quality and performance, and being able to choose interface, will add the best experience for each one of us: the one we trully want.

Please sign the petition, and make it reach Microsoft.

Thank u very much.

http://www.change.org/petitions/microsoft-company-allow-to-disable-or-decide-whether-we-want-metro-interface-or-not

PS: I couldn' find Microsoft e-mail from Redmond or similar, if anyone has it, please PM me, and I'll add it to the petition.:rolleyes:
[Windows 8 General] Jacob_DK:
Thanks. I've tried the Consumer Preview and couldn't agree more. Signed.

Little by Little, lets change it and improve Windows! thanks!:rolleyes:
[Windows 8 General] morpheuszg:
If you can't accept Metro then stay with Windows 7, simple as that. Support for Win7 has been extended till 2020 so there is no need to move on to Windows 8 if you don't like its interface.
[Windows 8 General] ne0cr0n:
I am not against Metro, I like it, but against HOW they implemented it for desktop PCs. For tablets and netbooks or smaller notebooks with touchscreen it's actually realy great.

The point is the missing harmony between the old styled windows desktop you are using the most time if you are at home or at work and the new Metro UI, espacily the switching between the two modes and the implemantation of elemental functions like the system settings.

It's like an interuption if you "click" start. I am not against a new type of "start menu/screen" but it should fit the design and "feeling". It should support the (desktop)user in his work. In the current way this is not possible. The Metro surface allows to pin this realy nice live tiles (I realy like them!)... but if I push the start button I want to start a new application to do some work.

Ok, I can pin my favourite applications on the screen like I did with Windows 7 by pinning my mostly used programs to the start screen. But some applications I am using are changing by time so i enjoy the feature of the dynamical menu entries of frequently used programs like in vista and 7. If I want the same quick program launch on Metro I have to pin a lot of tiles to the screen and the live tiles become obsolete because they are somewhere right out of the screen.

They could have done it so much better...

the best way (in my oppinion) for desktops would have been to

a) chose between metro on - metro off

or

b)go much further:

1. consistent design (colors, icons, fonts,...)

2. pin live tiles on the desktop (like on metro start screen, maybe with a smaller size) or the taskbar (only with the notification, no messages, like it's done on MacOS or the IE9)

3. run Metro styled apps in a new kind of window including the buttons from the charmbar (share, search, settings). so all this "swiping" (with a mouse!) is not necesary but you get some kind of consistence between the usability of tablets, deskopts, and phone but keep the simple task management from windows.

4. a start menu mix between the old one and the search dialog from Metro.

Hm... just noticed my english sucks to express my rage about win 8 xD

Maybe I should run Photoshop and make some concepts how it should look
[Windows 8 General] xatornet:
Is it so hard to add an option to get both interfaces ? Just to keep everybody happy and updated.

I don't think so.

I like the new kernel, about a 25% smaller, very fast and better working. I don't wanna miss that, but I am totally against buying a new Touch Monitor only for using Win 8.

That's too much for me. And if u take a look over some forums, we are many who think the same.
[Windows 8 General] psycho_somatic:
plus there are some nice new features in windows 8
[Windows 8 General] Enhanced:
Plus, I'd love to be able to sync between Win 8 without Metro on my desktop and Win 8 on my future tablet with Metro.

So yeah, staying on Windows 7 is a poor solution.
[Windows 8 General] the_scotsman:
lol...trust me, this won't make any difference. Half of the internet doesn't like Metro (myself included).

Microsoft know this...they are aware of what people are saying, but they won't change it.
[Windows 8 General] Alexander-HTC:
Well, I (and others) will vote with my wallet. Hopefully Microsoft will change it for win9. I don't see how win8 is better than win7. Anything new is metro related, which is useless for desktop.

P. S.

I switched to Kubuntu on one of my computers already. It has all I need.
[Windows 8 General] the_scotsman:
I find Windows 8 is boooting up and running faster than Windows 7.

There is a lot more than just Metro that's changed. The kernel has been improved for one thing.
[Windows 8 General] bobbiac:
Yeah.. Voting with my wallet sounds about right. Not digging the demo builds right now.

Microsoft has this knack for screwing the pooch on revolutionary software. Lets face it, 2002 was basically updated NT4 and XP took that and stuff that ACTUALLY work from WinME.. Not there was. Vista was the first "new" Windows in a while. And Win7 is still version 6 [dot something]. Any OS that has been successful also had decent hardware to back it up.

That being said... This is a preview build. MS have heavily inferred they are giving someyhing that is nothing like the RTM. Well for PCs at least.
[Windows 8 General] xatornet:
What I cannot understand is why Microsoft, in the past, launched about 10 or so versions of windows 7 ( Enterprise, Home Premium, Starter, Profesional, Ultimate, Enterprise N, Home Premium N, Profesional N, Ultimate N... etc ) and now, when they really need to add One more version with Normal Desktop added in kernel, they decide not to do it.

It's a pity, but there's going to be a lot of people staying in Win 7 or migrating to Linux or Mac.
[Windows 8 General] andrew2163:
You know Metro isnt your only option right, you can go to desktop mode as well?
[Windows 8 General] krapplejaxx:
I haven't tried the consumer preview, but I used the developer preview extensively, and I remember that there was a registry key you could modify and get the win7 interface back...
[Windows 8 General] the_scotsman:
Doesn't work on the Consumer Preview. All the Windows 7 Start Menu bits have been removed from this build.
[Windows 8 General] xatornet:
That's a white lie. When you pick desktop mode you dont get same desktop as always. You get a reduced version without stat button.

And in new desktop you get instead 4 motion-reactive corners that, for instance in some FPS games just sucks and bothers all the time.

Thats the desktop you get: a reduced, corner-active,weird version of what real desktop was.

Lie to yourself not to us.
[Windows 8 General] dialupboy:
i dont get it,

the desktop is still there , right? so why this petition.

dont like metro, dont use metro apps!

---------- Post added at 06:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

, desktop is there, window app function like it always has , start menu is there, just lil a bit hidden and replace with metro theme. OMG you sound like whining for nothing.
[Windows 8 General] xatornet:
Start menu? No. Metro is not start menu. And the petition is to ADD a selection of kind of interface, not to erase Metro. Read it first, and then start spitting your thoughts.

I do not want to have a "bit hidden and replaced" start menu. I like it as it was before, because it defined Windows as Operative System. What we are having now is a weird mixture of Windows Phone and Xbox Dashboard, which is wonderfull for Tablets, but a complete sh*t for Desktops with keyboard and mouse.

If you like metro, allright, keep it, but why not having an option to get traditional start menu? Would it be so hard to get questioned at installation whether I want it or not?

I am asking to add something more to the OS, not to erase something from it.

And if my whining bothers you, feel free to get out of this thread and visit different ones. Thanks.
[Windows 8 General] valtonray:
have you tried using the hot key short cuts? or navigating metro by typing the app name you are looking for? I take it both are likely no. I'm telling you Metro isn't just for touch screens, a power user can navigate it quickly with no trouble, and it's a lot easier than searching through an endless list of programs in the start menu. If you want 8 and the start menu just add http://www.vistastartmenu.com/ MS shouldn't stop trying to revolutionize the way we use computers over people who want to hold on to the old way. Touch screens are becoming increasingly more common, smart phones and tablets are changing the way people learn to interact with software, and Microsoft is headed in the direction it should be.

Re Windows 8-

At last I have found someone else that sees sense in that making Windows 8 with only the Metro theme. And no option to disable it and get back the Windows 7 start menu and desktop just won't work for most Windows users.

Most people are not computer experts and neither am I. I love Windows, that is Windows XP,Windows Vista and Windows 7. But I hate Windows 8 Consumer Preview the way it is.

I was using Windows 8 Developers Preview and that was all right because you could disable the Metro theme and have the Windows 7 start menu.

But you cannot do this on Windows 8 Consumer Preview. And there is no way I will support Windows 8 if it is going to be like this.

I have been getting a lot of stick from the members of other Windows forums for saying in my posts how much I hate Windows 8. And calling it WINDOWS 8 NIGHTMARES PREVIEW. It is just a joke but they don't see the funny side of it.

Over on Neowin forums the members there are for the Metro theme. But I am not and they have even given me warnings telling me to keep my views to myselfe.

And over on the Windows 8 forums they don't like me for my posts either.

But so what if my being open and honest about what a terrible operating System Windows 8 Consumer Preview is. And I know so because I have tried it and not been able to use it.

And I have signed your online petition against the Metro theme. And I think your post is a positive move to being open an honest about how bad Windows 8 is. And how most ordinary computer users cannot use it.

If other Windows forums want to ban me just for saying how bad Windows 8 CP and the Metro theme is-let them. It will not bully me into accepting Windows 8 or the Metro theme or converting to it. I will never buy or use Windows 8 if it is going to be like this-no start menu and the Metro theme. NO WAY. Andrea Borman.
