[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] DarkRyoushii:
I don't think that's what you're after since you don't seem to be looking for themeing instructions for your own app but rather for the OS. You should take a look at the Theme chooser in cyanogenmod and maybe a tutorial on how to do those themes. Otherwise you will find many aren't cross compatible between launchers so find the launcher you like the best and develop for that one specifically.

The first thing you're going to need to do is download the android SDK and apktool. You'll need an XML editor as well. Theming for android is a lot more complicated than it is for the iPhone

I'm in the same boat coming from 4 years of iPhone themeing.

I used MyHome launcher when i had a gs3 for 4 days and it was pretty easy to theme. Hoping to get MiUi rom for nexus 4 when my phone geTs delivered tomorrow.

Well if you want to mod some apps, you'll need: (not to make it from 0)

- APKtool (to "extract&build" apps) its on xda... :cowboy:

- Some basic knowledge, as:

· Be careful with those images with an extension like ".9.png" , you'll have to download sdk and its a lil more complex .... (sometime its ok, but others it looks weird :silly: , so you can try but always have a copy of original ) :victory:

· If you want just make icons start doin at 96x96 (xhdpi default) :highfive:

So what's the trick yo get the action name for apps to out in the XML? I found a web page that you an search and I added hulu plus icon to a theme (apktool to unpack, nodded files, repacked and then resigned with a script I found for Mac) but how do I get the right string to change the camera app that's built into cm10 ROM and none of the themes I've downloaded have changed.

Followind the d@amn 7,2,2 OTA, I re-rooted, renstalled ADW Launcher etc etc... In ADW was't impossible to install widgets and wallpapers: solved for static wallpaper downloading Wallpapers HD, live wallpapers still not working.

I found no way to get widgets working. Has someone suggestions? Thanks

SOLVED! thanks to cdictio see his post down the page
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krept:
Same issue, but with Go Launcher. I try to add a widget and it briefly says 'loading' but then nothing happens afterwards. Interestingly, the Go Launcher widgets can be added just fine, the list of them populates and they can be added, so the fundamental mechanism seems fine and because it happened on ADW it doesn't appear to be a launcher-specific issue.

Same problem with GO. Apex seems to widget okay
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lindybell:
I am having the same problem since the 7.2.2 update. My KFHD is unrooted (I do not have the expertise to do it and do not want to void my warranty), but learned here how to use the ADW launcher (Thanks!). Widgets already installed still work, but can't add new ones to the homescreens. I have had a couple of other issues since the update, and spent about 20 minutes on the phone with Amazon CS yesterday without resolution--she wanted me to deregister, and if that didn't work to do a factory reset. I am unwilling to do that at this point as I don't want to lose my widgets that are still working.

Other issues since update: Business Calendar app and KFHD calendar app will not sync with my Google calendar (they did before).

Notifications are muted, but sound anyway. For now, I will just use the Google calendar on a Chrome webpage, and turn off my Wifi at night so notification sounds won't wake me up, but am not pleased about having to use work-arounds!

1.Download the apk

2.copy it to system/app

3.change permissions to rw-r-r

4.add widgets
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nora_noob:
Tried and it works!

It solved my widget problem with ADW. I hope it will work for the other launchers too.

Thanks a lot!

EDIT:

it solved also the live wallpaper problem! The trik was to move the picker to system\apps, change permissions and NOT install : just leave it there: exacliy as for the widgets picker. Thanks again

Widget help for unrooted Kindle Fire HD

Is there an option for unrooted KFHD? I was thrilled to find your solution for recovering access to widgets after 7.2.2 upgrade. However after attempting several times I can not copy your apk to system/app... I have concluded that it is because my Kindle is unrooted?????

The widgets were working with 7.2.1 then immediately after the upgrade I could no longer access them to place on screen. Everything else with ADWlauncher EX v1.3.3.8 Is still working with no problems, including still being able to place shortcuts and folders on the homescreen.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vickles:
I would also like to know if you can get widgets to work without root, as I am not too keen on trying to obtain root access again after almost bricking it the day I got it....
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krept:
Voted up, thanks!

To those who are unrooted, did Amazon customer service provide any additional info regarding this problem? Hope you get it fixed!
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lindybell:
No, CS didn't provide any info, and I was kicked up a level from the first rep. Saw in another thread that there's already a 7.2.3 update, but mine hasn't updated yet. Hopefully that will help. I have noticed that since 7.2.2 my speakers haven't done the random loud pop.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] michelemdgb:
Widgets still not working on KFHD, ANY HELP PLEASE

After several attempts with Amazon getting NO HELP because app is sideloaded and not from their App Store. Someone in the Amazon forum said upgrade 7.2.3 apparently helped, but has made no difference for me.

Right my problem. So i've flashed my galaxy tab 2 GT-P3110 Wi-Fi (UK). I wish to know how to revert it back to the original settings (fresh out of the box)

You can wipe data/ factory reset after installing the stock firmware. Boot into Recovery Mode by holding down Power and Volume Up buttons together until the screen turns on. When the Samsung logo appears, let go of the Power button but keep holding down the Volume Up button until the device boots into recovery. In Recovery Mode, select Wipe data/Factory reset and select Yes on next screen. Select Reboot system now to reboot the tablet

I already saw there is a request for sense. No motoblur love yet?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
A touchwiz rom for a LG phone?

But no seriously, touchwiz as well as HTC sense, lg ui, motoblur are all closed source and very difficult to port. On Galaxy Nexus, there was a skin pack of Touchwiz on top of stock Android.

For people bashing op, android is all about options. If a developer wants to devote his time into porting it then so be it. Nothing is stopping him. If android was one way if thinking then we wouldn't be any different than the you know community.

Realistically, getting a stable touchwiz rom isn't worth it and it won't happen most likely. If you like touchwiz then get a galaxy s3 or a note 2
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lwfb:
The launcher and some of the framework was ported to the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7 by a developer called madphone, he even made a ROM that was fully themed.

He's also ported LG launcher and framework to the Galaxy Nexus.

Evilisto has ported the LG lock screen to the Galaxy Nexus too.

Yes OP it's possible and you're not wrong for asking, it's your phone so run what you like on it and never mind everyone else.

Best bet to see TW5 on the Nexus 4 is to contact madphone and see if he's interested in porting it, maybe he can tell you if the mods he's got out will work right off the bat on the Nexus 4.

Do a search for him and you'll find his threads. Or Google TW5 for Galaxy Nexus, a few months back a few big Android sites wrote an article about his work.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vghf:
Hello Internet,

I'll go straight to the problem

I think I bricked my phone

It all started when I was trying to view those damn emoticons that iPhone users keep posting on twitter

a few google searches said that installing fonts to view these emoticons requires rooting

so I rooted my device using Odin

It worked fine

but then I tried installing the fonts

there were 4 of them

the first one installed ok

when I installed the second font

my phone rebooted and nothing appeared on the screen

it only shows the "Samsung Galaxy I9300" part and then nothing

I rooted it again thinking that it might help, and it didn't

now I am trying to unroot it or do anything to make it work

My country "Bahrain" isn't on the firmware download list on sammobile

so I chose Saudi Arabia which is right across the border and their carriers don't lock their phones

I am writing this while the firmware is downloading

but it is taking FOREVER

the old firmware ended in DLD as in XXDLD .. there are more letters obviously but I can't remember

There is another functional unrooted phone in my house from the same store I bought mine

ANY help I get would be welcomed

P.S. If this is in the wrong section, please move it

I would first try booting to recovery and wiping cache, then under advanced go to Wipe Dalvik, and if that doesn't work wipe data/factory reset.

If none of those work then reflashing via Odin should get you back up.

didn't do the davlik thingy though

once I do get it back I will try it your way if it is still not working

thanks for the replies guys
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delsus:
You should have just reflashed if a factory reset didn't work rather than take it to a shop, that's all it will have needed. The font you flashed probably messed a system file up, and a reflash is all it needed. Flashing a font as root can only cause software issues, and a reflash will solve any of them.

If you can get into download mode or recovery mode you can recover a phone yourself, these repair shops should only be used for known hardware issues or hard bricks.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MiG123:
Currently using both my s3 (daily driver for 6months prior) and nexus 4 while waiting for buyers to show up for the s3. Both running aokp with custom kernels and huge undervolts. My s3 as experienced for the past 6months can easily last through a full day's (12hrs) usage, running consistently more then 5 hours screen on time with 10+% batt to spare.

Given the massive hardware and software evolutions in the n4, was expecting it to outdo or at least match the batt life of the s3, of which it shares a similar battery capacity with. Much to my horror, it can barely last 75% of the s3's batt life, even after using faux's amazing kernel/app combo to uv by 150mv. I find myself scrambling for the charger outside home for the first time in ages, halfway through my work day when screen on time has barely even reached 3hrs.

I find this utterly unacceptable given how on paper everything about the nexus 4 points to a more battery friendly device:

28nm next gen snapdragon vs 32nm last gen exynos

IPS LCD is more power efficient then AMOLED esp with the common white backgrounds while surfing net

Latest qualcomm 3g/baseband chip built on power-sipping 28nm tech

android 4.2 pure google developed OS + open/documented cpu libraries vs closed source code relying on inefficient blobs

no microsd to power and constantly read from for n4 (might not be a pronounced effect though)

Kindly post your batt life experiences with the n4 and if you concur with my observations, else i'm afraid i just got bad set or a faulty battery.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jin486:
I am sorry to say this but your title is stupid like you know for sure that the battery in the N4 is bad. Then after your ranting you ask people what their battery life is to see if you have a bad battery. If you saw the other threads people's battery can last up to 1 day and few hours, just depends on how you use it. I usually get 20 hours with normal use which is more than enough battery life for me. It took a while until I got my battery life to be good. It did suck before hahaha
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spitefulcheerio:
Sounds to me like you didn't do your research.

A lot of people are having issues with undervolting on the Nexus 4. You should go back to stock on it and just let it be. It's perfectly fine all by itself. I get solid 18-24hr charge cycles with similar screen on time to what youre talking about.

The great thing about this phone is that we're able to change basically anything we want to.......but just because we can, it doesnt mean we should.
