[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
thanks.. so what features will i lose if i flash 2.7?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
Well, you gain features with 2.7, but you'll have to wait about 30 seconds every time you turn the screen on. I would personally recommend 2.6.x or 2.5 as of now. I'm sure between Andy and loserskater we'll see all of the extra goodies in a more stable release pretty soon. I personally went back to 2.5. I can live without the status bar mods (clock color and status bar color) and like using the aosp circle battery. If you use TW or aosp lock screen and like the stock battery, check out 2.6.3...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
ok. thanks for the heads up! :highfive: i am currently on 2.0, but i was hoping i could flash this just for the center clock fix, as i find 2.0 to be stable.. just with the exception of the center clock overlap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jloaiza:
I don't know if this might hep but i have the brightness toggle available to me at all times and you can change what you want it to do. For example i have mine to go from Auto / 25% /100% every time i touch the toggle. you can change in AdvanceS app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
For those using rom control I'll get new versions out with just left clock mod, and two versions will be uploaded, 1 for those using left/right clock, and the other will have the invisible fix for center clock
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wyvern49:
That's an good idea. I don't use that toggle so don't have it displayed and forgot it has multiple settings. That may just do what I need. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
am i missing something? i was previously on version 2.0... was curious about 2.7, so i dirty flashed it.. encountered the screen on/status bar disappearing issue that prenedo warned me of just before.. and also some freezing.. so i then dirty flashed version 2.6 over it...

now i don't see rom control.. but the main thing i wanted when i was on 2.0... the center clock overlap fix.. well 2.6 seems to have done just that, when i thought this fix was just introduced on 2.7?. no issues there anymore! :good:

but what happened to rom control and the other options?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Only odd numbered .zips have ROM control.. V2.5, v2.7. Even numbers , v2.2, v2.6 do not have ROM control.. That's why I offer both. ROM control for now use v2.5 until I fix the clockmod3.0 issues.

You have to read the op my bro. Eg. v2.6 has everything v2.4 had plus etc. (No rom control) and v2.7 has everything v2.5 had plus new etc. Basically odd numbered releases have rom control and even numbers do not...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
ok thanks.. sorry i didn't expand the "Depreciated Downloads" for that info.

but what about the center clock overlap issue being fixed in version 2.6? was that supposed to happen?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
..yes of course , please read the op there are two fixes..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
sorry.. i should've clarified that it's version 2.6.0 which was linked a bit ago before the fixes.. no matter.. it's working :highfive:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ufjay5:
Is there anyway to get the dark icon for the inverted aosp mms? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
open the .apk using 7zip or whatever u use, and find the folders in res/mipmap those hold the icon ur looking for, replace it with stock or w.e one u want, usually mipmap-xhdpi is the one that u want.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sob372:
You are the greatest andy. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Thank you, Sir.

I tried updating the OP a bit for easier selection of which version works best for everyone.

links are uploading now :)

EDIT: All Links are just about done, the OP should be a little bit more clear on which of the 4 .zips would work best for you. whether you want ROM Control or not, and whether u use middle or the left/right clocks.

this should solve just about all problems I've encountered so far, there's still small things I'm sure
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ufjay5:
Does this fix the temporary disappearing status bar?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
All Links are Hot :)

yes it does, just make sure to pick the correct .zip (2.6, even number have no ROM Control, 2.7 odd numbers do)

and if you use left/right clock

or the middle clock

and all should be well.

the problem was from the option to change the color of the status bar clock, and the stauts bar on the fly, yuo have option in Aroma for blue.. I know not much but hey, it's something :)

but all issues should be fixed granted you choose the correct .zip

please let me know of any issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
Working great on my end (2.7.4)..... Thanks for the quick fix Andy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
2.7.4 working perfectly here. thanks andy! :highfive:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ufjay5:
Andy rocks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wyvern49:
2.7.4 is working fine, no issues. The color wheel was nice but not a big deal. If its not too much work though, you might think about adding a choice of red along with the blue in Aroma. As always this theme rocks more with each release.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DiGi91:
I have a request; can we get the unthemed AOSP MMS as am option. Love using the AOSP MMS but honestly not feeling the bubble theme.

Maybe it's just me either way thanks for all of your hard work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
try this-https://www.dropbox.com/s/ldzbgjk36v1h4b7/Mms.apk. it's the inverted aospmms. i changed the icon. let me know if it works or if you'd like a different icon. :good:

---------- Post added at 11:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:20 AM ----------

what is unthemed? it comes white or dark...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
noticed 3 minor issues for me (2.7.4)

1) status bar transparency doesn't change.. i've tried 75%, 50%, and 25%.. no change

2) i like to use the stock battery percentage only.. so i hide the battery icon under Rom Control... and when using the "Display battery percentage" under the Display settings.. it'll show on the status bar, but once the screen turns off and you turn it back on.. it disappears.. leaving you with just a blank space. not a big deal, but yea it's one of the things i noticed.

3) when using the Ubuntu font.. sometimes parts of letters get cut off on the bottom.. letters like "y" g""..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jloaiza:
Hey Koss,

I trust you the most for this as you're like almost on every thread helping out and pointing folks to correct places for goodies. Where should i get inverted apps from. I'm seeing like three different places i can get them from but afraid and don't want to waste too much time grabbing stuff that will cause issues.

BTW big thanks to Andy and everyone else whose helped Andy with this theme by far one of the best ones i keep going back to. I feel privileged as i asked for the left clock like a week ago and here we are you guys truly rock.

Thank you too Koss.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dmudd:
I'm on 2.5 and not 2.7.4, but there is an option under choose your battery icon in ROM Control that only shows the battery percentage. Not sure if you know about it or just prefer the stock over it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
I can confirm that none of the status bar transparency options stick (I tried all percentages, with a few different combinations of systemui elements like white vs. Blue toggles, etc...). Also it seems that the notification shade transparency only themes it to 25%, it won't go any more transparent than that. I'm on 2.7.4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
yea i just prefer the stock. thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
i try to help as much as i can. inverted apps i personally use are always from Gunthermic or Camblue. Camblue does great transparent apps, if i need something that they don't theme i use B-boy's inverted apps. google search for his website. he does amazing stuff.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I forgot to add in the trans status bar mod, sorry guys, it works for 2.6 but not 2.7 I'll get a patch out soon. There's option for stock 25% 50% 75% and 100% transparency. If u want more than 25% use 50 75 or full 100% :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
Maybe I can't tell the difference, but when I select 75% or 100% it looks the same. I personally don't mind, as I don't like it too transparent; it was just something I noticed when testing different combinations. Thanks again Andy! Another small donation sent your way :thumbup: ( 65F14061437267823 )
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
that's weird, I just did a test flash and if u do 100% for say status bar, u can see it's 100% trans, well for 2.6 anyway, Thank you very much for the donation, Sir!

I just added patches for 2.7.3 and 2.7.4, they cannot be flashed, u need to pull follow the directions in the OP,

"(Do NOT flash..) pull the SystemUI.apk outta the patch.zip (system/app) and replace it in the .zip in system/app replacing the old SystemUI.apk "
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
just applied the patch.. transparency works on the status bar now... but it doesn't matter what % you choose.. they all look like they're at 100% transparency :( no transparency on the lock screen also
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
status bar transparency only works on home screen IIRC..

also the up and down side to having the transparencies set to a .png image is that 1) I can't really set a value, so saying that it's 50% trans is me going by eye..

the plus side is that anyone can go into the .zip and edit the .png for anything they want say a color, more transparent, less transparent, just go into Aroma/statusbar/trans/ and then pick the one you'd like to edit, so say if 50% it too transparent, go into Aroma/statusbar/trans/50 and edit the statusbar.png to your liking :)

if we get a set of .pngs fort he 25%/50%75% I can set those as in the future.. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
Probably just my eyes. I just changed to 100% and it is definitely more transparent than 50%. I think it was throwing me off because the screen behind the shade dims as you pull it down. Patch for status bar seems to work as well. Thanks man...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jloaiza:
Koss, you are awesome, i may sound like a girl but "I feel complete now". All is working great i feel like there's nothing else for me to do. Thanks again to all of you.

Andy - Thanks for an awesome theme and your rapid fast turnover on listening to us and fulfilling our small wishes.

Koss - Thanks for being a great source of support an helping out without even questioning.

Finally to all other who have had some sort connection to all this thank you I know there're many of you I've only dealt with directly but thank you all.

If ever need my help by all means hit me up. I only ask for patience, I'm not as fast as you guys are but I'm good at taking apart and making things work with lots of assistance from many of you.

BTW - Thanks to all MODS - you guys really need to hook ANDY up with DEV entitlement he deserves it just go back through this thread if you need to. There are many DEVS who are highly respected for the great work they do and ANDY should be among them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
i really appreciate that man. being a total noob at this, i'm trying to learn as much as i can and trying to help others as much as possible. a lot of people helped me and a lot of people were just @$$e$ about stuff like it was some secret knowledge that only a few possessed. later found out those usually new less than i did. lol i looked at that as i would never be like that and always try my best to help out anyway i could. and i couldn't agree with you more about giving andy dev status. not only has he helped me and pretty much did any mod i asked of him, he also pushes me to try and learn more. i may never be as great a dev as he is but at least i try to do things i had little to no knowledge of a couple of months ago. and it's always great to have a couple of good devs you can turn to for help or to do something for you. always thank the devs for their work and if possible try to make a donation for their work. it took me a while to realize how much they do to make us happy!!! check your PM...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
Thank you kindly, Sir.

This theme has been a lot of work, and has turned into much more than the theme and has helped me learn some really cool things, like Aroma just to name one. You guys have been amazing, couldn't ask for a better User base.

Screen shots like great BTW.

from the pictures I can tell you are using left clock with most likely the "invisible" option only leaving you with a few notifications before getting the arrow notification, (as invisible means just that, it's hiding the middle clock, so the status bar systemui thinks it's using the left + middle clock at the same time, that's why the notifications stop where the middle clock would be)

I suggest using either the "gone" fix or using the old code, I find the old code works the best for left/right clock and is currently what I'm using, it lets left clock work just like right clock 100%. for instance your last screen shot, it would allow notifications all the way to the clock before giving you the + arrow icon,same with right clock that works normally, but middle clock has overlapping issues but that's just another flash away to fix :) (or even using the "gone" fix I personally feel is more useful as it fills the entire notification bar and the arrow never shows for the left clock so this will leave it open to possibly overlap say the 4g/wifi icon if too many notifications are there, but for me that basically never happens, it's really all personal preference , it would be nice to have a full fix, but hey, it's still great work and cool features :))

it's a pain for sure to have to decide between two .zips, either the left/right or middle clock .zip, obviously invisible works best if u want to use left and or middle clock. but if you're like me and want to leave it at left, def use the old code :)

v2.6.5/v2.7.3 is what I would use :), just a suggestion

what version number are you currently using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
hey andy, did you get didact's crt animation mod added into these latest versions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jloaiza:
Downloading 2.7.3 I think I was so happy to see fix that I grabbed the wrong I wanted this one because I only use right or left clock. I prefer left clock it looks better and less clutter and I got used to the arrow popping up when too many notifications but I rather not have the arrow. I'll play with 2.7.3 and see what I get. ThAnks again I noticed not too many hits on the thread that's only a good sign that you've done a great job on the last release or else we would have seen a lot of action .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
No I didn't, totally slipped my mind, sorry about that, I'll work on getting a patch out
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
No worries man. Sounds good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
I am working on getting this ported from loserskater

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=40828910#

thanks to loserskater so far it's half way there, menu to kill works when selected, but back doesn't :/

hopefully can figure out why soon,

but in the meantime, here is a back to kill.zip

http://d-h.st/HQr

have only tested on v2.6 not v2.7 but *should* work on either

if can't get loserskaters mod to work, i'll make new .zips with back to kill added to aroma option along with stock and menu
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
hi andy. i was wondering if you could look into the issue of the stock battery percentage display disappearing every time the phone is rebooted. it's quite a nice look using the stock percentage with some of the battery icons (especially the sense one).. but it disappears everytime i reboot (using 2.7.4). no biggie if you don't have time for it. appreciate your hard work!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wyvern49:
This mod does work on v2.7.4. It replaces the Menu2Kill mod that I chose in the Aroma installer just as it should and works perfectly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HypostaticOnion:
So we should flash 2.7.4 for center clock, and 2.7.3 for left or right clock?

If I've helped, please hit the thanks button.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
if you want the lock screen and battery on fly mods.

if not, then use 2.6.3 or 2.6.5

I personally use 2.6.5
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kujayhawks77:
Is there anyway to see what version we are using? I know I'm on 2.6.something, lol. Not really a big deal since everything is working perfect. I just wanted to know more out of curiosity.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
See what zip version you have downloaded on your phone? Unless you have multiple versions already downloaded.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
no...

only by what features i guess..

read the changelog and see if it has what is listed..

lockscreen + battery options, if not then it's going to be 2.6

if it does then v2.7...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
i've given the versions without rom control a try and they don't seem to have long press volume to change tracks working.. made sure i selected both volume track skip and menu to kill in the aroma install also.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
thank you,

go into settings, display, and make sure it's checked.. if it is checked, just uncheck and check it again then it should work. ive only tested with google play music as well. so any other player i am not sure about.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
yea i've tried checking and unckecking also. doesn't work with spotify and poweramp. just switched back to 2.7.4, and it works with all players with that version
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SpyroDazee:
Brightness slider on/off doesn't work again Sir Bones.

Also, would there be a way to truly get rid of them? like the slider, text, the dash under the buttons? because they're really just masked with black. The black space looks odd. No big deal though, just wondering.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
Can you verify that the phone and SMS shortcuts work on the aosp lock screen? After flashing hold back to kill mod, I can't access SMS/phone from lock screen, and I can't change my lock screen type (like I can't use HTC lock). I understand why only aosp lock works, but can't figure out why shortcuts aren't working. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wyvern49:
No those 2 shortcuts don't work on the aosp lock screen and I can't switch lockscreens either. I almost never use lock screen shortcuts and I haven't tried to switch locks screens until you asked. The Google Now and Camera shortcuts work and, of course, the unlock works. I also don't know why the SMS and phone shortcuts aren't working. I know Andy was still trying to get this whole mod straightened out so hopefully he will get at least a fix for this done soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Aosp lock screen shortcuts work just fine here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wyvern49:
Did you install the Back2Kill mod that was posted in this thread? My AOSP lock screen worked perfectly also before I flashed that mod.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
Yeah... Were referring to flashing the back to kill over rom control (which Andy stated there may be issues, as it's made for 2.6.x). No biggie, dev stated it 'may' work, but I'm sure he hasn't forgot about us rom control users. I just think its bad a$$ we finally have back to kill mod working again. Big thanks to didact, loser skater and Andy for making it happen... Now if we could make hold menu for Google now work everywhere (not just home screen), we'll be in business. Or better yet, user controlled custom actions assigned to hardware keys (wishful thinking :D )
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Oh yeah sorry guys. I don't have that mod flashed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
sorry guys, gunna have two new versions out,

same deal, one with rom control, one without.

this time, i will be including loserskaters mod for on flu menu/back to kill

No ETA as of now
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] david_hume:
Still appreciating the work man. Keep it up! :D

sent from my anthraxed GS3 with MOAR goodness
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
guys I'm sorry but I'm going to be putting any updates on hold as I am going to be spending my free time working on my ROM.

Most users here I *think* will like it.

it will be a lot like stock ROM, but with Aroma (same features that u see in this theme), along with debloat stuff,

and have some nice features baked in.

some things off the top of my head are:

lockscreen choices

battery on fly choices

hide keyboard icon

remove wifi nag

menu/back to kill on fly

vol mod 3.0

clockmod2.0 + left clock

lockscreen torch

a bunch more I cant think of
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tu3218:
Bring it on man!!!! I've been waiting to read that you're making a ROM. I need something new on my phone. I know it'll be top notch based on your work on this theme/mod.

Keep us posted :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thebear j koss:
you're the best bro!!! look forward to checking out your ROM. let me know if you need any help with anything. maybe throw a few theme choices up there for people. nothing crazy, maybe the aosp theme, a blue version and a red? let me know, good luck!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prenedo:
I've always viewed this theme as a 'ROM' anyway (I only run CR6 to use this theme). Looking forward to it Andy. Keep up the great work man.
