For the now, here is what I have:

Look for apks in directory,

Extrack apk,

Read manifest to get package name and icon drawable for declared applications,

Drawable look up (for each density screen),

Icon transformation (scaling + deus ex background of your psd file),

Generation of resource redirections and themed icon transformation (with drawable prefixed by application package).

For exemple, for Solid Explorer, it generates in theme/xml a «pl_solidexplorer.xml » file with :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><resource-redirections>
<item name="drawable/app">@drawable/pl_solidexplorer_app</item>
</resource-redirections>

and the following images in « res/drawable-..pi/pl_solidexplorer_app.png » :

What I want to do for the next :

Update your theme (extract, add generated resource, rebuild and sign),

Support resource redirection updates (in case of xml file already exists in the theme),

Grab user apks for adb shell ?

The goal is the user run the software and generate the theme for its applications.

User could also upload you the generated files to increase your theme coverage.

What did you think of this ?
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
It would be good just to make iconpack or something. If you want it this way, then it should make flashable zip so I don't overzize my apk.

Sweet, thank you. If you ever find that image you used to have on the op with the guy sitting on the chair I would love it. Or if you just found it on Google I could just look it up. Not sure if that image was a custom edited image you made.

[Android Themes] Ramazor:
Set battery mod to icon in system settings.

EDIT:

Download that same version but without _frost extension.
[Android Themes] anticitizen:
I would buy it from the market. Especially in order to be able to receive updates.
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
It will be available somewhere around Christmas. I also have new idea for new theme that will be developed simultaneously.
[Android Themes] Svardskampe:
Please finish this one first, it works so beautifully together with ingress. Maybe you can get some ideas from that apk.

You can adjust the colors to be more Deus Ex-y.
[Android Themes] badwolf94:
Hey, is it possible for a variation of the theme too not have any icons for apps.

The reason i say this is because i created a small theme using the go factory, i only used an app background and stripped it of everything else. Then i use nova launcher to import the theme and i get background for all icons.

This should work on nova and possibly apex but i've never used it.

however the icons that you have already themed are echoed in the theme so it doesn't look as good.

And BTW this is probably the best theme on xda right now :P

P.S i'm too much of a noob to remove them myself and too much of a noob to create an icon pack from scratch. lol

(If you are wondering about all the permissions the app uses, its because they are the ones the Go factory give it)
[Android Themes] RomelStyle:
can you post the latest theme as a beta version ? since many users really love your theme including me :D
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
Wish I could. It's my first theme ever and idk how to make apk for it. I'm trying it all alone in Android SDK. If someone with required knowledge wants to help, please do it hahaha!
[Android Themes] Nordpolcamper:
Is this theme a mere concept or did you actually manage to theme that part already? Because I am looking for the texture on the right settings column for weeks now, so if you have made any progress, would you plz tell me what file that is?
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
It's just a concept. I own .PSD files so it would be easy to slice the parts (transparent backgroundi guess). I'm missing someone who could teach me how to make apk and all those things. So lets say I will need a partner. (I have no experience in theme making, but I'm a fast learner)
[Android Themes] Nordpolcamper:
ah okay that sadly is what I thougt. Because some things arent possible which you have in your concept^^

You wont be able to simply slice all parts and replace images. That will work with some, but others are 9.pngs which you need to handle completely different, but good luck with this theme ;)
[Android Themes] SirM2X:
Wow! Just Wow!

I'm a big fan of Adam Jansen and this theme would be a huge plus for me and a friend of mine!

Thank you so much for creating this... Looking forward to try it on my phone!
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
Well, could you give me some links to tutorials how to handle them? I don't know the difference actually since, as I already said, this is my first ever. I would be very thankful =)

Found out a bit about it, stretching would be problem =/
[Android Themes] Nordpolcamper:
Sry, I have no links, since I am quite new aswell and I learned by asking people^^

But first you will need your rom zip on your pc and I would recommend winrar aswell.

Then download the Android SDK and google xUltimate-d9pc since you will need that for the 9.pngs aswell.

Also you will need a flashable zip. I would recommend you simply download a theme and check the meta-inf folder. Read a little in the updater.script file which you can open with notepad and see if it simply replaces /system/ files, which normally themes do.

Then go to /system/ in the zip and delete everything inside this folder so you can have a fresh start.

With this you have a flashable zip, which you can use for your theming work.

Now open your rom zip file with winrar and extract the apks you want to theme, for example phone.apk, systemui.apk or framework-res.apk which you can find by browsing to /system/app or /system/framework in your rom zip. Simply drag and drop them to your desktop or any other folder and close the rom zip.

Now you can either use the sdk, or simply open the apk with winrar. You should see a res folder which you should open. Inside there are folders like drawable-hdpi or drawable-nodpi and many more. The ones you need to take a look at when you are on paranoid android, like I am, then the important folders are drawable-hdpi ( for me its xhdpi, but the s2 is a hpdi device), drawable-nodpi and drawable-sw600-hdpi.

Inside these folders are a lot of image, that you can manipulate.

If its a simple png, then you can easily replace them with images, that have the same name and the same dimensions.

If its a 9.png you have to rename it to blabla.png (blabla=regular name) and edit it in photoshop. After that go to your sdk folder and open tools. Open the draw9patcher file and give it a second. Then drag your changed image into the openong window and draw the black lines on all sides as you want the file to be stretched.

Save the file and you will notice it now says blabla.9.png. After that you will need to place the image into the correct folder and then execute xUltimate-d9pc.exe, which will convert the 9.png and you are done.

Now you can open your apk with winrar and then navigate to the folder you took your image from and drag and drop the new one inside. Press ok and close winrar.

Open the flashable zip and navigate to /system/ and create a folder named app or framework ( depends on where you got your apk from [ framework-res.apk belongs into framework folder and systemUI and stuff like that belong into the app folder]) and then simply drag and drop the manipulated apk into winrar.

Close it again and place the zip onto you phone, boot into recovery and flash this zip, no wipe necessary. Wait for it to finish and then reboot and see if it has worked ;)
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
Thanks a bunch mate! I will use all of my brain cells to try figure out workaround ;D! Find out or die trying hehe
[Android Themes] D4rKn3sSyS:
I think he wants a theme engine APK. if it's so is not needed a flashable zip. Then you can just take some theme on that format, and as it seems like sources for it are not yet released or nobody gives a link for a correct compilation from scratch, then youll have to decompile APK, and give it a look inside. I recommend you to use this tiny package I've made with 2 simple batchs.

First of all you must get the theme you want to use as base, ask for permsisions first of course ;). Then rename to Theme.apk caps sensitive so be careful.

Then put it on the same folder as this file uncompressed, and run "decompile.bat". Give it a few seconds and you will have a folder called "Theme".

There you can start to edit "AndroidManifest.xml", for setting up your theme name and this kind of details. Then start to replace images for your new ones. When you're done, just run compile.bat, and search on /Theme/dist/Theme.apk, and push to your sd as any normal theme.

If you have any question please let me know. And if someone knows where can I get the sources from theme engine themes, please tell me, this decompilation thing is not the best way, but atleast will work.

New sdk is hard to work on (mac). I will try it on windows, but sgall i install custom rom to emulator while trying it out?

As the matter of eta for this theme, I hope it will be done within a month or two :)
[Android Themes] mikki-kun:
Hey there,

I have been following your idea and I like it. It looks nice and you are doing a great job thus far.

I am not really good with anything artistic, cannot usually find the golden mean, but I thought about sharing what I think might stir up some ideas maybe.

You could try to look into the game (I assume you have DE:HR) and maybe be inspired by the interfaces of the different environments available (I think it wouldn't look too bad as a dial pad for the phone to have the number pad which pops up when entering a keycode; maybe use the game's battery indicators) and of course the surroundings for possible backgrounds (something like the main menu as a wallpaper choice maybe?). I think that a darker keyboard, black with some alpha channel (to not have pure black) applied to it, could also be an idea for a variation of the theme you are currently working on.

Thinking about variations... That sure sounds a little more difficult and might need some research, but how about giving each "company" an own corporate theme, like for Belltower, or Sarif? If you have the spare time and the will to do it, why not go for it? :) Would allow us to switch between them every now and then, depending on what we feel would look nice in that moment.

I am not trying to convince to go include those ideas, just thought I'd share them here as I've been following this thread for some time and thought about stuff I think could fit into your theme.

I wish you the best of luck with the theme. Sadly I cannot contribute too much as I have the game on the PS3 and thus cannot provide image material. I would be happy to get the theme though as soon as it is available :)

Cheers,

mikki-kun
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
Thank you on your advice. I was surely attending to do it as close to the game UI as possible. I was up for making keypad just like in the game, but it might look too heavy with the theme (if you know what I mean). Well, I will try it out and see the look of it when I manage to get some time.

Thanks once again, I appreciate every advice since I'm trying to make it as much user friendly as I can!
[Android Themes] Arnadel:
Where is the theme Ramazor ? What are you doing ?
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
As the title says, it's just an concept. I still got school to worry about =(

I am going to start replacing system files next weekend. Since most of the people are unpatient, I will release betas.

Last da of school before Winter break! Updates shall come!

Primary:

- Fix notification icons

- Add buttons in settings

- Add CM10.1 support.

Secondary:

- Remove launcher icons from apk
[Android Themes] badwolf94:
I've decided to invest a bit of my time in creating the proper icon apk, including all the icons that are built into the theme (so it doesn't matter when you remove them).

So when the first revision is finished, their will be icons for:

Browser

Calculator

Calender

Camera

Contacts

Clock

Email

Gallery

MMS

Apollo

Downloads

Google Play

Settings

Movie Studio

These are just those that are included, i will also be adding an app background icon for the none themed apps, aswell as adding a DE:HR folder icon.
[Android Themes] DesignGrits:
The only thing I would ask that be changed so far would be to remove all of the icons from the theme and just make them a apk, because even if I set my launcher to a different icon pack the gapps stay in this theme and it just looks weird. But I am assuming this has already been asked since you mentioned some about the launcher icons already. :D
[Android Themes] charlie95113:
I swear ever sense I tried this theme on miui I've loved and I don't even like orange /gold color but still sick if you could possibibly just change the blue lines or like volume control or when checking something in settings etc...its sicccc and hzvent stopped using it..

[Android Themes] Ramazor:
It's HDPI/XHDPI. I ain't sure if I'm going to add MDPI support.

EDIT:

If I delete luncher icons, I will also delete in app icons. (gallery, settings... for example).

You sure about this?
[Android Themes] badwolf94:
Yes, this attachment has all the icons and the icon background, it works for Nova Launcher and other launcher that support Go Launcher themes (though the only thing themed is the icons)

I have a bug with the clock icon not having the proper icon but it still has a icon back so its still blends in. But then again it may just be my rom
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
So this is iconpack for Nova?
[Android Themes] badwolf94:
It tries to be lol.
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
I'll test it :)
[Android Themes] Shakes27:

[Android Themes] Svardskampe:
Looks better and better. This desperately needs to be finished so I can pay for it in the play store :P. I don't know why, but you seem the only one to "get it" with themed builds. If you search for "deus ex theme", you only get crappy stuff with brands all over, but not the actual style! Or maybe a lazy iconpack. Would be wonderful if you'd also do a TF2 theme, a Fallout theme, or others.
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
Well, I'll finally admit that I have already started concept for Skyrim & Ubuntu themes! ;)

But first, I need finish this one and get it to Play Store (It should be avaliable on Play Store few days after Christmas).

Thanks on support :)
[Android Themes] xXxCannonGodxXx:
Still missing some elements, what am I doing wrong?

Hi first post here, feel free to flame me into oblivion :D. Here is what I've got: I tried installing the theme two different ways.

Verizon Galaxy Nexus (Toro)

First way:

- Installed CM for toro

- Copied Theme, UCCW Skin, Widgetlock Skin, Wallpaper to my /sdcard/Themes folder

- ran the Deus Ex Android and Deus Ex HR Icon Pack .apks

- rebooted

- set theme to deus ex

Result: everything worked except:

- The large digital clock still had the system skin

- The unlock screen had the system unlock slider and the yellow wallpaper

- The dialpad keys were very small and spread out.

Second way:

- Installed paranoidandroid

- All of the zips and .apks are still in the /sdcard/Themes folder

- ran the deus Ex Android and Deus Ex HR Icon Pack .apks

- rebooted

- set theme to deus ex

Result:

- All of the same problems plus

- Wallpaper is system wallpaper

- Status icons are blue unless I am in the apps screen, in which case the wifi and battery go gold. Clock stays blue.

- Going to ParanoidAndroid settings and reselecting Stock UI makes status icons gold, but they go blue again as soon as I leave ParanoidAndroid settings screen.

I'm very very new to all of this and I feel like I'm assembling a piece of IKEA furniture and I missed that one key step that makes the whole thing come out wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
[Android Themes] xXxCannonGodxXx:
Nevermind, I'm a dumbass

So yah I'm a dumbass. I was thinking that the zips were resources that the .apks used. Lo and behold UCCW and widgetlocker are apps. The CM version is working for me now.
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
I'm glad that you've made it. And you're not a dumbass, there are no such things as stupid questions. I'm here to provide the answers if I can :)

Hey Ramazor,

Love the apk theme! I only ran in to one issue, not sure if anyone else has mentioned it. But when I change my DPI settings to 213dpi for tablet mode all of the text in the status bar seems to be slightly down and to the left. Its kinda hard to read the battery life. Does this theme support multi-DPIs? Well..for tablet that is.
[Android Themes] ishken:
Ramazor

Dude, how can you concept on Skyrim and Ubuntu when the awesomeness of Halo 4 hasn't been done properly as an Android theme. Or Mass Effect. Ubuntu? Gah!

Sorry to hear about the Play Store shenanigans. You're an awesome themer and this theme's progress proves it over and over.
[Android Themes] Ramazor:

Should I name free version like this "CM10 Theme Deus Ex Android (F)"? It's 30 letters max (including spaces).

EDIT 2:

Free version is coming out in hour or two.
[Android Themes] anticitizen:
Problem: I purchased the play store version. when attempting to apply using theme manager on either of my devices (both running CM based roms), I get the message that the theme was improperly compiled and cannot be installed. I have the pre-play-store version running fine on one of my devices.
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
Thanks for purchase.

Try this:

Change dpi to 140, reboot, apply the theme, change dpi to 160, reboot (in case you use Paranoid Android or similar ROM)

OR

apply the System Theme, restart your device and try applying again.

EDIT:

If this doesn't solve the problem, I'll look into it. I'm in GMT +1, just so you could know when I'm usually online (Noon-Midnight)
[Android Themes] anticitizen:
That seems to have done the trick, thank you.
[Android Themes] biscuits101:
I'd recommend switching to system and uninstalling this theme before updating to the paid version otherwise you seem to get duplicate themes.

Glad I can finally give you some money for this, it's well deserved :D
[Android Themes] Ramazor:
I thought about writing that one. Since they are apps with different name, they will install separately. So yeah, be sure to unisntall free, and then install paid version.
