Hi ammar and others, happy new year to you:)

I want to comeback to lower LCD value problem. On some apps, like clock, phone, calendar- screen view is adopted to 240 value, it doesn't convert apps front view to smaller LCD value, like I'm using, 210. Can this tiny problem be avoided?

Sent from my GT-I9003
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Ok tell me which app do you use to change these values?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
YOU can try free app LCD DENCITY for root. Default is value 240, I'm using 210. 200 is too small :)

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Ok, So I have started looking into things to update. Few bugs have been hopefully fixed(since I've not tested), including no title bar for Extended Power Menu and Carrier label getting cutoff if it's multiline. Further I wanted to include a Screenshot option in the power menu. But looking into the CM10 smali codes, I realize that their method of taking a screenshot is different than ours (not so surprising thing). I'll just have to find a way to trigger the screenshot action found under PhoneWindowManager.smali . Which can take some trial error.

Ok, moving on, there is common color bug for the lists containing radio buttons. I tore down the framework.jar and framework-res.apk to rectify this but to no avail. Sorry but those color bugs cant be fixed. But you never know... ;)

I'll include swipe to remove notifications. And also crt on off effect (But I havent found a comprehensive guide for it, If anyone knows then let me know).

I'll invert the Contacts and sms front activity,.i.e., I'll make it black.

Ok. So this will be all. I've started using ADW as the launcher. It's smooth and also mimics the Trebuchet launcher of JB. So no tweaking of Nemus Launcher.

This next update maybe the last update of JellyBread as Kernel 3 is soon gonna be released and I'll permanently move on to CM theming. But if any one faces a major issue here with the theme, I'll rectify it ASAP.

Happy New Year 2013. :good:

EDIT: Ofcourse curkeirkas,I'll look into that DPI value problem too.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
Don't stick to screenshot button, it's not needed really, because Samsung gave us buttons combination.

Thanks!

Morning guys. Yesterday I've found a very nice alarm clock, countdown and timer app in Google play. JBCLOCK+

Hey guys... Just need some feedback... Do y'all like this new lockscreen clock?... Was thinking of implementing it right now...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jim_moriarity:
I love this new lockscreen clock, this is just like CM 10.1. I think you should implement this in your theme.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] johnny88:
it is better then the stock one... but I prefer the jb like

cheers! (and thanks for you nice work!)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Ok... So to implement this, I'll need to remove missed call/new sms notification circle which appears on the lockscreen which allows us to directly goto the phone/sms app. Is this OK?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
The reason to remove that circle is to move the clock up... Samsung has used a VERY unusual method to make this lockscreen. Making it very difficult to mod....
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
do as you like, but jb locksreen looks better than gb's:)

thanks for yhinking of us:thumbsup:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] rupid:
This one is better i guess. Keep up your awesome work :good:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
It depends on the users. I sometimes use this feature but not so regulerly. So you can remove it :) Can we have a small setting button in notification panel like in cm10??

Just let me know when u will move to cm10. I have lots of requests for u related to mods ;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
I can give a settings button... But it will take up space... Which we don't have in that row...

As soon as dhiru releases kernel 3... I'll be on cm10...

Edit: Don't know why the attached image is scaled down.. Original was 1600x900 resolution.... :P

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
Ammar, how does missed notifications looks like on this lock screen?

Thanks for your efforts!

Sent from my GT-I9003
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
It doesn't appear at all... I removed it... It made the clock shift down... So I had to remove it..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] rupid:
So you mean we won't be able see if there is a missed call on the lock screen?

I think this is a serious issue which can cause people to give up using the theme continuously. I would suggest you to keep that feature.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jooode:
you can use third-party application, such as notify plus
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] imjustafq:
i dont think by removing the notificator will bother a lot. since im using pattern lockscreen.. lol.. its not a problem.. go on..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] johnny88:
nono my friend, let the lockscreen shows missed stuffs... we don't mind about clock position.

:) btw thx!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Ok so I'll add the missed call/SMS notifications. Anyways the clock shifts when the notifications are present.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Or better I'll try shuffling their places.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] johnny88:
yesss :) thx!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Mission 4.2 Lockscreen on 2.3.6 Accomplished.... :)

Note that when there are no notifications, the clock will come back to the center of the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] rupid:
Great work! I think we don't need to install any other apps just to see missed calls & sms. This is simply the best :)

And thanks ammar for listening our needs:good:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] johnny88:
zip, zip zip... share, share share!!! :D

thx! ;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
eagerly waiting for v3 :)

ammar, what updates on your mind left?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Swipe to remove. Trying to correct those black text color in some option list... I have listed the to do things in few posts above.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
what about jbstyle task manager (long click on home button and swipe to remove unneeded app)?

is this possible on your theme?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Sorry but that can't be possible, because it maybe using strictly ICS /JB apis.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Ok. So I think I may have solved the problem of the Black text in pop up dialogs. I just want to confirm it. So suggest me places where y'all face those text problems. I'll check it. :D

Also I have implemented CTR OFF effect.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bala242:
waiting for update friend.......
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Update will take a while coz I still have to update contacts and SMS.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jazone...:
I am using your rom. It is awesome! Thank you so much. Btw crt off? Flashed your v2 and it is not giving me any crt animation. :( can you point me on the right step to turn it on? (Tried some and also animation, no go) It makes my sl unique on my other friends phone. Thanks in adance! :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
First of all this is a theme... Not a ROM. And the CRT effect will be available in v3.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Jazone...:
Shoot i am so sorry ammar, i meant theme! Really sorry about that. Must be very tired (its 3 am here) but anyway thank you all the same. I appreciate you not forgetting sl community aand thanks for adding crt on the next update :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
How can I forget the SL community?

It's my only device.... :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
just went throughout the menu. mainly everything grand, except examples I gave you some time ago acording the sms , adding contacts. and third apps popups, but I guess thats not your problem..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
I want to know which third app pop ups and where. That's what I want to check.

Thanks a lot for such an awesome theme! :) ,Its amazing ! Awaiting update!:highfive:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Ok guys, I was thinking of reverting back to the original Contacts app. If there is any good Contacts app on the market which mimics the Stock JB contacts app, please comment here. Further, now the settings looks more like the JB settings. Actually the look of settings of each app will be changed. Checkboxes and radio buttons are changed. Now swipe to remove and sms is left.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jim_moriarity:
Hey I found a cool jb clock , ammar you might wanna have a look at it.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
I remember someone posting screenshots of this clock. I can't add these apps in the theme. I maybe violating some terms if I do so. I ask for these names, so that people may download them from the store and use them. :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
I have mentioned JBCLOCK few pages back.

about contacts. try to look at exdialer. It has a contacts management, which suits me best. using this app for a long time a default dialer ant contact manager. it has themes, so anyone can choose their favorite theme as well.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Hey guys. Swipe to remove Notifications has been implemented. Tell me, do y'all like the JB type pop up menu when the option softkey is pressed in an app?.. like no icons, only text?

And those black text popups have been rectified to some extent. I had some places where I used to get those. Now some of them are correct but here are still places where I get black text. :(

Ok, further screenshot option in Extended Power Menu will again make it long and will require scrolling of the menu, so not implementing it. Anyways, it wasn't a popular request. What else's left?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
thanks amar. will you include the setting button in notification bar?

with buttons everything is grant, way better than ics theme ;)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Hmmm ok ill try...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] johnny88:
have you had a look to it?

Question:

My answer:

...only releasing ;)

cheers! :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
Ammar, what about task manager buttons? Had you time for them?

Anyway that is best theme for sl, and you are polishing to perfection :thumbup:

About screenshot button in power menu. Now I'm thinking how often you guys using recovery and downloads buttons :rolleyes:

Once a month, half year? As in my opinion, those buttons can be deleted :)

And screenshot button is useful only couple times, maybe a little more often than recovery :)

So, ammar, if you don't mind, please include screenshot button next to flight mode. And recovery + download buttons lets stay at bottom, invisible :)

One more funny issue about xda app and text options. They are all white:)

Good luck, you rock :thumbup:

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Ok. About contacts black text, I'll reverting to original Contacts, so all those will be fixed.

Task Manager problem is not problem of this theme. I would suggest you to extract the task manager apk from any DDLF2 custom rom and use. All will be right.

Actually Reboot to recovery/download is useful sometimes. I usually prefer holding back button and pressing home for screenshots.

If ppl want I can try correcting the XDA app colors for this theme.

I want people to reply here. Many ppl download the theme, y'all can see that by going to the download link and see how many times the zip has been downloaded, but very few reply back here. Guys I need some feedback. :p
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] vishal24387:
Ya same request from my side. Because of it we can go to setting directly by clicking on that button from anywhere :) It will be very useful button/shortcut for me.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Ok. I will try that...
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Ok. Here is the problem with the XDA app.

It uses a custom theme for every thing. From lists to app backgrounds. Now the pop up on long pressing a text field has the background of xda(yellow) and the text color of the system(white). Now if I change the background color of xda, everything will be effected. The light theme of xda will become like dark with bad text colors everywhere. But that would solve the pop up text problem. And I cant change the text color of the system Popups. That would effect the whole system. So I would suggest leaving it as it is. Or if anyone has any other idea, please do let me know. :o
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sureshb_07:
Hi Ammar,

I am using your JellyBean theme and its really good.

I have a doubt. Whether applying themes will replace the default launcher?

Or is there a way to replace the launcher?

Sorry if this question sounds silly..:)

Thanks & Regards,

Sureshkumar.B
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
No it will not change the launcher. You can download any launcher from the market. I would suggest Nemus or Adw.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] sureshb_07:
Thank you for the information.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] johnny88:
or Holo Launcher: fast, slim and light :)

@Ammar: What is left to do dude?

cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Settings button is left. And I just saw that the double line carrier label still cuts off... Have to fix that... Then I'll release it.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] johnny88:
really goooood :) thx!

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Yes. We now have a settings button in the Notification Drawer.

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Tell me the System apps where you face these LCD value problem. I think this problem is occurring where the layout is based on dip values. I can rectify some... But may not be able to rectify all. So tell me exactly where you face them. Try filtering them in order of your daily usage. So I could prioritize fixing some first and the rest later(if possible).
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] cukierkas:
There are only few of them. Calendar, clockpackage, phone.apk

Only those ones.

As for dialer, I'm using Exdialer, it's more easier and nicer, t9 search works way better!

As for calendar - Acalendar is nicer and more comfortable.

as for clockpackage. Since it's look disordered and snoozes only 3 times max, as I mentioned earlier, founded alternative and for it:) Jbclock+ .

So, as you see now, I'd prefer stock ones, I hate installing additional stuff, but it seems that Sammy's software not perfect.

Thanks for reading my story. So, if you have time and want your theme look perfect,please look at it. By the way, have you tried smaller LCD value by yourself? Liked it? Or prefer stock one?

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
I know why you all are asking for this. I think it is because if we touched the status bar by mistake when the notification drawer is open, it disappears. It irritated me as well. So I disabled that. Yes. Now no irritating closure of the panel. Touch the status bar as much you want. The panel won't close by itself. The only bug which arises due to this mod is that, IF you set the brightness of the device by sliding your finger on the status bar some part of the panel is visible and remains there even if you pull your finger off the screen. To close it you'll have to press the back button. Now this would be irritating ONLY IF you set brightness using that method.

Other than that, you'll be happy with that mod. Do let me know your views about this MOD. Like it/Dislike it?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] johnny88:
I have no issues with notification drawer... so my opinion is leave it as it is :)

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Hmmm... What things do you want from the SystemUI.apk?

For 4.2 Clock. U'll need to change the clock drawables from framework-res.apk and do changes in CircleLockScreen smali in android.policy.jar. Compare using BeyondCompare.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] NerdiestGeek:
Dude dude dude... this is LEGENDARY. I would just like to say. I was pleased with v2... - and I requested some little things and guess how glad I feel when what I wanted came out in v3....

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] behnameb7:
All parts have been changed in systemui.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] AmmarGitham:
Ok... So then you'll need to look into all the layouts in the apk. Also a single layout in framework-res.apk named status_bar_latest_content.xml

Some Smali changes have been made in systemui.apk and framework.jar for swipe to remove. You can refer the guide to see the changes. Search for the guide on xda.

Extract the apk from the v2 zip file and replace in system/app/ with permissions as rw-r-r.

You can easily download any Contacts app from the market. If you want to make it a system app, move it to the system/app/ folder.
