Well maybe I should be searching and doing things on my own but that's what I did when I started to theme a little bit and it worked out well. But I started by seeing one of travis' tutorials and with the help of shane with a lot of things.

So basically I need some help that's all.

And I too see that CM7/9, AOKP and all those are the same. Especially the 2 versions of MIUI. So I would like to start my own thing kind of like sence and blur. Sence would be something I would be interested in doing since I loved my htc phones before this one, but since its already started I will try and work on something else.

Ill pm you xboxfanj and we'll see how I can start working on it. And thanks for your offer =).
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
I've done it before. It is hard to keep updated.
[Epic 4G General] shane6374:
:p

AOKP/CNA/Gummy is kinda like Sbrissen mod for touchwiz gingerbread roms on steroids. Like xbox said, the AOSP thing has been done to death on ICS. All we're getting at this point is some pointless fragmentation between the roms.

UBER/Biggorn/Big Goron or whatever name your using these days :p , I wish you luck with that endeavor. I tried to do my own for a couple months and realized that I was updating it every other day thanks to what was getting merged in on the other roms. Too much of a PITA for me so I went back to theming.
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
I got the time :D.
[Epic 4G General] orlzzt:
Marcus, how about ACS ICS and MarcusantRom? Those were TW; were they hard to keep up to date?
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
TW is very easy to keep up to date since we only got a few GB updates. Those other ROMs get updates and merges every few days.

Now this is something Id be interested in, might give me a reason to bust out one of the old linux boxes, unless of course these fancy things can be done from winblows now. My last project that involved source code was modding my OG xbox into a media center, and that was a long ass time ago, back when i was sleeping on a futon, in a basement, surrounded by fishtanks..... I miss my bachelor pad, 5 computers in one 7.5x10ft space, and I only needed 3!

Which version of Ubuntu should I be installing to build from source? I see 10.04 and 11.10 being used, is one better than the other?

I use 10.10. Linux Mint variant actually.
[Epic 4G General] shane6374:

everything is setup and im running my first build. question, where do i find the local manifest xml?
[Epic 4G General] Decad3nce:
Looking away from the absolutely terrible advice by everyone else.

To quote Cyanogen

"Stop. Write an app or two first, learn how the system works from a developer standpoint. Learn some Java. Read the developer documentation. Learn how to use Git. Then learn how to build AOSP from source. Read the porting guides, and learn how the build system works….. Now try to put your new found skills to work on enhancing the platform by writing code or making theme overlays. And share! And put that s**t on your resume. There is a *ton* of information out there but any kind of “step-by-step rom cooking guide” is going to be a complete fail- it’s too broad of a subject."

All the guides on these forums are nice references when you need just a little structure(?), but you should in no means depend or rely on them.

Actually, better yet, stay away from all of the "porting stock roms" all together. If you can't understand how to system works from a developers standpoint, you have no job putting software on other peoples devices.

and you have to create it.

Or just run lunch epicmtd
[Epic 4G General] lilajrestnom:
That's exactly what I'm looking for. I know that most the tutorials or whatever won't help me which is why I asked to see if there was one that actually would help me. And starting off by making an app seems like the right thing to do. Xboxfanj is helping me out. So once I am ready I'll find out what I have to do exactly.
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
I told you about it :P
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Learn Java before anything. I barely know Java and am currently learning more. Don't do anything aandroid related to start off. Just learn Java, make some PC apps, then make android apps, then learn to build aosp and go from there.

[Verizon Droid Charge] jco23:
That's probably the safest bet, but I like how it replaces TW. One less app to bog your memory down. Plus if folks want it, they can just redownload it from tweak tools. Otherwise, it won't be your true pics theme. Just my 2 cents. Keep up the great work!

tappin' that....
[Verizon Droid Charge] o0BlacknesS0o:
I think I'll just leave it as an add on and also see if dwitherell will add it to tweaktools when i release 4.0

[Verizon Droid Charge] danstar:
I say leave it included.
[Verizon Droid Charge] aaronDroid80:
I vote to keep holo included. Although, it might be nice to have a standalone cwm zip that will replace TW launcher. I can't stand the [limitations] of TW, and I've been using Go launcher for about a year, but it's been getting too bulky. Holo has been a welcome alternative.
[Verizon Droid Charge] blythefam5:
Leave it included
[Verizon Droid Charge] jager420:
I vote for leave with as halo as stock launcher..tweak tools is ur friend if u like touch wiz
[Verizon Droid Charge] Farabomb:
Like everyone seems to say, holo is great, I went from go to holo and I miss nothing from go.

If you want TW, tweaktools brings back whatever you would like from the orginal ROM.
[Verizon Droid Charge] stebomurkn420:
Include Holo.... lol
[Verizon Droid Charge] JihadSquad:
Please don't include holo. I was using transparent ics with holo in /data and I switched to solid. My holo launcher got screwed up and I had to cwm restore and modify the zip for solid.

how do I run the stock launcher on this theme? And if I cant, how do I uninstall it and will my old setup be able to come back?

I think if you reflash, you should have an option to choose your launcher at start up.
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
You can go into Manage Apps, select your current default, and hit Clear Defaults and you'll get the choice next time you hit the home button.

Oh yea! That too.
[Verizon Droid Charge] cnoevl21:
hmm. i cleared it as default, but all it is showing me now as options are holo launcher and eclipse launcher, but no stock. I mean its not the biggest deal in the world, I just use the 'Feeds and Updates' widget a lot since u can use it to post on fb and twitter simaltaneously.
[Verizon Droid Charge] o0BlacknesS0o:
The stock Touchwiz launcher is replaced by Holo launcher...U can reinstall stock with tweaktools

Phone repeatedly reboots homesceen

I used to have to a D2g, just got a Droid Charge. I'm confident in how to return to stock, root and whatnot, but after installing Transparent Ics, I can't make phone calls, or do anything without the phone freezing and reloading everything after a minute or two lag.

It worked fine for about 30 minutes, but then would repeatedly freeze and reload all my homescreens. Any suggestions on how to fix?

I returned to stock using Odin, dl'ed the OTA, applied CWM, SU, and before rebooting, flashed Tweaked 2.1. Then using Terminal Emulator, installed Transparent Ics. I've done this twice, but can't figure out what the issue is. The only thing I can think of is media scan, but can't do anything to turn it off.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jlromero951:
What kernal are you using? Tonsit? Imnuts PBJ? On some Sammy's, including mine, that was the same issue which resulted into the same problems like yours... I flashed imnuts kernal and I was good to go. Give it a shot if you haven't done so already ..
[Verizon Droid Charge] madhatter9556:
Oh ok, so from Tweaked 2.1, flash Transparent Ics, then Imnuts kernal? I'll give it a shot and hope it works. Will update after work with the results.

Update: Flashed PBJ, so far so good. Lost root momentarily, did a google search and relfashed su after reading around. Problem solved.

Update 2: Even after flashing PBj kernel, the same issue occurs. It's alot more sporadic, but it does effect my abilities to use the rom. I may just odin back to stock, ota and stay at 2.1 build. 2.2 plus transparent ics just doesn't want to run smoothly for me.

Just did. And so far, so good. Not sure why I didn't do it earlier. I had both 2.1 and 2.2 on SD card, just never thought to flash it. Thanks man. I'll update after a few hours use.

Sent from my SCH-I510 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2
[Verizon Droid Charge] madhatter9556:
Yeah. I figured out what the issue was. While I was trying to install Transparent Ics, I had returned to stock using Odin, both PDA and PIT slots filled. Then on a few occasions (in my frustration) forgot to update to FP1 (did not flash, used OTA). And then on different occasions when I did update to FP1, I didn't update from Tweaked 2.1 to 2.2 then to Transparent ICS. So now I'm good to go, no errors now that everything has been taken care of in order.

[Verizon Droid Charge] o0BlacknesS0o:
I'm not planning on using any launcher with this theme now...I would just recommend using a file explorer with root access and going into system/app and renaming it to hololauncher.apk so it doesn't get overwritten if you decide to switch themes
