The Avatar Team is proud to present the first beta release of weebo app. It is a Tasker like application which can automate tasks for your phone.

The application comes with pre-defined set of 20 common rules but you can add your own rules in sdcard (/mnt/sdcard/weebo) and it will be automatically picked up by the application. To activate a rule, click on the corresponding rule (rule will get highlighted)

The rules are simple XML files and you can find more info here.

Download link - Here (Push the apk as system app)

Example:

<rules>

<rule name=”Office enter settings” desc=”When you enter office, Switch on my WiFi”>

<conditions>

<wifi state=”off”/>

<location state=”enter” name=”work” />

</conditions>

<actions>

<wifi state=”on”/>

</actions>

</rule>

There is lot of work going on to make the app better and your feedback will help us a lot.

[HTC One S] bippi79:
Avatar Theme Creator Tool

Avatar Team is proud to present the first beta release of Theme creator tool. It is a QT based desktop application to edit themes.

Themes created using this tool are compatible with Avatar ROM and Cyanogen ROM. Similarly you can edit both Avatar Themes and Cyanogen themes.

Download the theme apk and open it using the theme creator tool. You will see a screen to edit the resources. After editing the resources, save the apk and install on the device.

What you can do with this tool ?

1. There are 1000's of resources that can be themed in Android. We change only a small set of them and if you want to theme more resources you can use this tool.

2. We make some mistakes when creating a theme. Eg: SMS time stamp color was not proper in some of our themes. You can now use this tool to fix it.

3. We cannot satify all the users with a theme. Eg: If you want to have a darker orange shade in denim theme you can now do it using this tool.

4. You can import an existing theme, change some of the resources we modified and you have a brand new theme.

Upcoming features:

1. Ability to create a new theme from scratch.

2. Import MiUi mtz theme file and convert it to theme apk which is compatible with AvatarROM and CyanogenROM.

3. Upload your new themes to our server so it can be used by other AvatarROM users.

4. Html5 based new theme creator tool which is more elegant and user friendly.

Download links

Windows - Link

Linux - Link

Mac - Link

As always we love to hear your feedbacks and comments. You might feel little lost with all the resources that are in Android world and we are on standby to help.

If you create a new theme and want to upload to our server, send us a PM and we will give access for you to upload the theme.

Do I need to flash the boot image to install this ROM??
[HTC One S] ryanshew:
Unless you are s-off or on hboot 1.09 or 1.06, then you have to fastboot the boot.img for every ROM. There, now you never have to ask that question again.:)

04/19/2013 - AvatarROM 2.7b Release

Merged with CM 10.1 M3 build( 14th April )

Changed Error Reporter to send requests to server instead of a google document

New Theme Chooser fixes

Weebo fixes

Support for layout theming

Existing AvatarROM users can update via OTA. Go to Settings-> About Phone-> Avatar updates and hit the refresh button.
[HTC One S] bippi79:
Avatar Team is proud to present the first beta release of Layout Themeing.

We all have seen how themes change images, icons, drawables, colors etc. But this is the first time you will see how a theme can change the position of UI elements (buttons, labels, etc). Never before an attempt like this was made in the history of Android.

Eg: "Close all apps" button in the recent apps list is on the top-right corner. If you are a left handed user, reaching the top-right corner on a 5 inch phone is not easy. With layout theming, you can move the position from top-right to left-bottom.

Demo:

Lets take up a simple example. We have seen different version of dialer in different operating system. By applying a theme, we can now have the exact same dialer in Android. Not only the buttons look the same, it is also positioned at the exact location.

System UI (System app) - Link

Iphone style (Theme) - Link

Circular dialer (Theme) - Link

Blackberry dialer (Theme) - Link

Recent apps (Theme)- Link

Install Instructions:

1. Push the systemUI.apk to /system/app (Eg: "adb push systemUI.apk /system/app")

2. Install the themes as any normal android application (Eg: "adb install -r iphone.apk")

3. Go to theme chooser and apply your preferred theme

4. Open the dialer and check out how look and feel changes which each theme.

Some Surprises

1. Check out the clock position on the status bar. Yes it is centered. We can move anything to anywhere.

2. In the recent apps theme, we have moved "Close all apps " in the recent apps list from top-right to bottom-left

Layout themeing will be part of AvatarROM soon and we are working on some cool concepts. We would love to hear what you want to see in layout theming. Post your ideas in our feature request page.

Launcher?

Do I have to use the included launcher? Can I use something else like Nova Launcher? I paid for that...

WarmSpring Theme

Releasing one more new theme in our Avatar theme stores, check below screenshots. The same is available in our new theme chooser.
[HTC One S] Bowmanspeer:
I find that actually like this just because it gives me options to have more colors added into the icons. Most other themes for other ROMS don't give me that. The only thing I really don't like is that silly rabbit shooting fireworks (or whatever it is) for a boot animation. I delete it from the media folder and put something I like in there and it won't work (but usually does). So how can I put my boot animation in there to work?

Sent.
[HTC One S] bippi79:
We support theming on boot animation as well. Change to a theme like Simpsons and the boot animation will be changed. Not all themes support it.
[HTC One S] Bowmanspeer:
I don't want to use the boot animation included with the theme. I have one I like and want to use it. With every other ROM I've used it was possible to change boot animation. How can I change that and keep the theme?

Sent.
[HTC One S] ryanshew:
You should be able to change the boot animation as normal. I think what he is saying is that just some themes include boot animations and some don't.

HTC_One_S | S-OFF | DeviantXone_2.0 | Twisted_III
[HTC One S] Bowmanspeer:
I understand that. What I did was go to the media folder and delete the existing bootanimation.zip. I then copied the one I want (which I have done and used on several other ROMS) to that folder. It doesn't do a thing.

I just want to say first and foremost that this ROM is solid but I have a question about the text under the icons on the home screen. I've tried switching different themes but I can never get the text to show under the icons... Any suggestions on how to fix this?
[HTC One S] bippi79:
You may need to try some other launcher for this. It is not supported as of now.
[HTC One S] Jerenes:
Call me a happy user! Installed it and loving it from the bat. Only had that with MIUI but they stopped the rom devel on the Ville...

There is however one pesky little thing though... The clocks all are in good 24hr format for me except the one on the lockscreen. I checked everything but still only in 12hr format that clock. Is there a way to change it? I use the iphone theme as I like it's minimalism...
