I need to look into this. I totally dislike percentage for battery status, simply wasn't aware of them being white. :)

sorry, MY stupidity.. i figured it out. sorry for the post. DELETE if you want. But otherwise a great mod to a sort of boring and generic touchwiz. thank you sir for all the efforts you put forth. we appreciate the hard work. keep up the work!!

(confirmed working on i337m)
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
:)

Never mind, although I was wondering a bit on which devices my theme seems to be running ... ;)

Thanks for your warm words anyway!

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] pdash79:
Totally awesome.

I am testing it right away and shall report back.

Thanks for turning around with the update so quickly.

Appreciate so much all your efforts.

Tested and worked :good:

It was awesome work and works fine on my i9500.

Thanks mate.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
Many thanks for the feedback. Good to hear that the theme runs on i9500 as well.

Enjoy

Does this work correctly on I337? I installed it and some things Showed up correctly, but I still have the fatory white dialer. I want the black and blue dialer.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
My theme is designed for i9505, I'm happy enough it also works for i9500. I simply don't know the difference between SGH-i337 and i9505 as i337 is not available in my country. To understand whether the theme would work I would need SecContacts.apk from your ROM.

Cheers

can u increase the size of the pics in recent calls? Great theme!
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
I can do a lot. :) But what are you talking about?

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] apocaliss:
The pictures of the contacts in recent calls!
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] joemagistro:
Toscha42 i would appreciate the biggest favor ever..

i know how to swap image files, and for the theme on my phone i wanna change the SENT MMS messages to purple (9900FF) instead of the blue.. when i change it to purple and replace the edited files back in the app, i open the app and the sent messages are now purple, however the purple bubbles dont extend the whole length of the message and the message runs off the bubbles. Do you know why this is happening??

I am sorry for going off topic here, but i would greatly appreciate if you can send me the image of the SENT bubble that is changed to purple (9900FF).. I can then swap it back into secmms... I am not redistributing your work. Just would like to do this for my own phone. Thank you and nice theme man!

I'm on a stock rooted Verizon SG4.

Tried flashing 1.0 followed by 1.03 without rebooting (didn't think I'd need to I'm trying that next), Contacts, Dialer, and Messaging all crashed when attempting to open.

I'll keep you posted on flashing 1.0 first, then rebooting and flashing 1.03.

EDIT:

Even flashing 1.0 and rebooting, without updating to 1.03, Contacts, Dialer, and Messaging all crashed. I'm also using CWM touch if that makes a difference. Not sure if Verizon is the issue or not.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] joemagistro:
probably because dialer and contacts crashes just when i swap the images over to tmobile contacts and dialer... its my assumption it wont work on our phones
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] maddog00:
So, no good is the bottom line.

Another dead end to get rid of all this green.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
I'm sorry to hear that. Seems that the Verizon (T-Mobile US?) phones are too different from the European / German versions ...

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
I'm sorry, problem is, in German phones there's nothing like 'recent calls'. We do have 'Favorites', second tab from right in contacts app, and 'Phone Log', second tab from left in dialer. So which one are you asking for?

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
Honestly, I dont what happens, the same happens here as well. It seems that's something is strange with .9.png files since Jelly Bean. But I can't figure out on short notice. I'm struggling with that since while, not only in MMS/SMS app. Sorry, no short term solution ...

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] apocaliss:
the second from left, so phone log :)
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] vassalle:
Hi if I'm coming from another theme.. Can I install this over it or do I need to restore my old backup that's unthemed and start from there? Rather reluctant to do that. Would be great if there's an easier way.

Many thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
Not an easy answer. As I don't know how the other theme is constructed (close to stock or totally different) I can't tell what would be the better way. But as you do have a backup anyhow why not installing over the current one and look whether it works? If it doesn't you still can restore the backup and then install 'Discreet Blue'.

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
OK, here you go. :)

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] apocaliss:
That's was what I wanted thanks to lot. Last request: can u insert a not-stock battery icon? At your imagination! :P
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
There're hundreds of battery mods available here in the forum. Would be much easier once you'd look into one of them ... ;)

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] apocaliss:
Yes I've tried one of them but it doesn't scale of 1% and I don't know why...
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
Sorry mate, but here I can't be of any help. I don't like at all the somehow misleading accuracy of battery capacity being displayed by 1 % steps. So I've never looked into it and most likely will not do in future as well.

is there a possibility to use splanner widget on others launchers?

I don't know for all but with Go Launcher the S-Planner widget runs fine.

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Chamillikawi:
Nice work you've done there but I got a question, why there's no contact image in the contact list or in sms app or even in the gallery?
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
Because I don't like them. :)

I simply regard the display of pictures of people I know very well as a waste of precious space on screen. But I could supply themed stock Secontacts.apk with original sizes if necessary.

Cheers

Any chance for a version to suit GT-i9500 S4?
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
S 4 in version i9500 is officially not available in my country, so I can't test by myself. But it's reported several times here in the thread (just search the thread for i9500) that the theme also works on this device.

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] kultus:
toscha: love your theme, but after MEA update sammy changed bacgroung for TW apks and settings to dark grey instead of earlier black. I have omega 5 with toscha 1.2 and the background is dark grey, is it possible to change it back to black? Or atleast make paralel versions for those who like black background and for those who like new dark black one? THX
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
Which apps would that be? I'm on stock MEA ROM and don't see any grey background here. May be you can provide screenshots?

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] kultus:
contacts, messages, settings,...just go to totaly dark room/bathroom without any light. run settings on tab e.g. accounts when more than half bottom screen is empty and focus on screen bottom and ofcourse wait for eye adjust for dark. Before you werent able to see difference between screen and the phone frame all was 100% black. Now its noticed because the background is very very dark grey but you can see clearly where the screen ends. This is solution from samsung to eliminate smearing efect, they made it dark dark grey to make pixels on/off faster and now there is almost no smearing efect but there is no longer 100% black background. On the other hand you can see 100% black in some apks like quickpic or kaloer clock with dimmed time. So its only on sammys apks like I said in the beggining. You have to see it on you own eyes...please try it and it has to be in very dark room ;)

edit: here is the proof screenshot from settings, just download it and watch it on true black background like Xnview or zoner photo studio or...to see the difference between true black and dark grey background which is even more noticable on S4 Amoled dislay...

1. omega 5.0

2. omega 5.0 + toscha 1.2
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
I'm sorry, but that has nothing to do with 'Discreet Blue'. In both of your screenshots if you analyse the value of background color it gives ff080808, a very dark shade of grey. Whereas if you download and analyse the background color from settings screenshot in OP you'll find the value ff000000, simple black.

I can't say whether it's coming from Omega ROM or something else. But I can definitely confirm it's not coming from Discreet Blue. Because I don't like grey background at all and there is no standard background defined in the theme at all apart from ff000000. ;)

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] kultus:
I dont know what you ment with screenshot in OP? What is OP in this context? Do you mean that stock MEA has true black? Because I read that more users found this "grey background problem"... and I never said that its the Discreet blue problem ;) I thought that in your theme you can influence this backgrond...so Ionly asked if its possible to make it true black...I will try the newest MF2 prerooted stock ROM or newest wanam 1.2 with MF2 too if its problem with omega only...
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
OP means 'original posting', i.e. start posting of the thread. ;)

Concerning standard background in I9505XXUBMEA the following is defined in stock ROM, /res/values/colors.xml:

<color name="background_dark">#ff000000</color>

This applies to all apps not defining their own background. And as far as I've looked into them none of TW stock apps does so. I simply don't know where 'ff080808' comes from.

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] kultus:
hmm thats weird...I will try some stock MEA+ ROM where is the problem...thx for good talk will report back ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
Themed S-Memo for 'Discreet Blue'. As I don't use the app too much by myself any hints for improvement would be appreciated.

Download 'S-Memo for Discreet Blue'.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Chamillikawi:
Why there's no contact pictures in the contacts app???
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
Answered already on previous page. ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] echenze:
This looks really great. Will you be maiking the same theme available for the GT-I9500 or is this one compatible with the device?
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] ratcom:
This file doesn't seem to include SecCalendar_SPen.apk skin unless I've missed something?

Oh and previous poster, why did you have to quote toscha42 OP? :silly:
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] ApriliaM3:
Please don't quote the entire OP in future...

I've installed this on GT-i9500 and it works fine.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
Thanks for confirming on GT-I9500!

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
I just downloaded from my link for control reason and I can find SecCalendar-SPe.apk. Please keep in mind the theme is entirely based on vrtheme, so you don't find it in /system/app but in /vrtheme/system/app instead.

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] ApriliaM3:
S-Planner is not themed for me though... Apart from that it appears the same as the OP
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
Weird. I've got several confirmations that 1.2 is running fine incl. S-Planner in a German forum. Nevertheless, would you mind downloading again form my Dropbox?

If it still doesn't work, could you send me stock SecCalendar_SPen.apk from i9500 ROM? Although I can't imagine may be S-Planner is different from i9500 to i9505.

Cheers

Thomas
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] ApriliaM3:
Same with the version from the above link... S-Planner is still brown color.

SecCalendar_SPen.apk file is on my Dev-Host site HERE
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Chamillikawi:
Please, that would be great!

Thank you for your support, appreciate it.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] kultus:
OK so now I have Stock prerooted MF2 ROM untouched just rooted and guess what...its again grey!!! As you mentioned OP pictures, sure you made them on ROM older than MEA... ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] ratcom:
confirmed, same here on foxhound v0.4 seems not to be skinned :(

wonder if its down to the file structure?
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
That was my idea as well. But I corrected that in the link provided in #170. As I can't count out that the wrong files still have an impact, would someone with the issue restore a previous backup, which should override every vrtheme files, and install the theme from link in #170 onto a fresh ROM?

Definitely no impact comes from the SecCalendar_SPen.apk, the one provided from ApriliaM3 shows exactly the same structure as the one from XXUBMEA. So most likely it's from the accidentally included test files.

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
You're welcome. So find here SecContacts.apk with stock sizes for pictures. However, it will not influence the themed png files from Discreet Blue.

Yes, I'm quite sure Discreet Blue v1.2 is based on stock MEA. :) Otherwise it wouldn't run here (see screenshot). The only difference obvious to me is that you seem to use a pre-rooted version whereas I'm on stock. Is there a chance that in the pre-rooted version background has been set to ff0808080? May be to reduce that smearing effect you mentioned above?

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] ratcom:
I've just copied over a clean copy of the apk I pulled from foxhound (the rom I'm using) and reflashed the file from post #170. I'm still not themed :confused:

With reference to the calendar
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] echenze:
Thanks for the quick reply. Let me install it on my device. It is one of the very reasons why I actually flashed CWM recovery. I was thinking of flashing a custom ROM had you said it is not available for stock ROM but for now my work is even easier. Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] toscha42:
It may be that the wrong files still are on the phone. Can you have a look at sdcard/vrtheme to find out whether there still the wrong directory can be found? There shouldn't be any at all after flashing a theme.

Cheers

Toscha
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] ratcom:
ok I'm going to go with a complete wipe and reflash the rom then your theme. I Will report back asap ;)

update - I've wiped and reflashed the theme from post 170, still not themed :(

Do I need just the top screen and the digitizer? Does anyone know what the part no. on amazon would be. Thanks
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Da Kine:
Is the digitizer okay? Responds to touch and isn't damaged? If so, then all you'll need is the glass and a lot of patience.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MiG8GT:
If all you need is the screen, they run about $15 on eBay. I would suggest watching a few youtube videos of the replacement unless you've previously done so.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] scream4cheese:
And that ladies and gentlemen is why cases are available for purchase. Seriously though, you need some sort of protection for an expensive device like the S3 or the S4. Protect your investment and get a case next time to prevent damage from falls.

I tried to replace the screen and I broke the digitizer. I got the replaced through insurance but is there any way to retrieve the data from the old phone with the digitizer being broken???

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alan sh:
The last few weeks, my N10 has really started slowing down. I've tried rebooting it, but it doesn't seem to help. I've got around 7Gb of free space.

I have a CPU monitor on it but that doesn't show anything odd - neither Core seems to be working hard.

The N10 is not rooted and it is running 4.2.2.

Anyone got any idea how I can check what may be causing this?

Thanks

Alan
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3DSammy:
Search these forums, as I am fairly sure that I read people mentioning significant I/O speed drops occuring when they came close to using all their internal storage (not the 2GB volitile memory). I/O speed issues can slow down your device. Although your 7GB of free space sounds like a lot of room to me.

As I can't clearly remember if those people reporting the issue found a fix please do the suggested thread searching. You may find that I am way off as it was a long while since I read those posts.

Good Luck.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CWalkop:
Are you sure that wasn't for the Nexus 7? The Nexus 10 has one of the fastest I/O speeds ever on Android, according to AndroBench (sorry for no link, no time).
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3DSammy:
I agree that the N10 I/O is blazing fast relative to other devices. What I am referring to is when internal storage is nearly filled up, for some unknown reason, the normal I/O speeds drop off significantly.

Here is the thread I was referring to. This thread mentions both the Nexus 7 and the 10. It also referrs to a fix "LagFix (fstrim)" but it may also just be a placebo. There is a free and paid version. I have never tried this app myself.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubene66:
Something like that happend to me but after flashing a few roms even with wipes my i/o was slow. I have to do a full factory reset with stock recovery then root again and twrp flash a rom or stock problem solve for me i have fast read and writes.

I've now unlocked and rooted my N10. It's all nice and fast again - but obviously, it's "starting again". I'll see what happens over the next few months. Maybe time for a new Rom.

Hi all I want to ask for your help on that and made ​​a mistake when installing the application GooManager.

I happen to install the application on my tablet GooManager back to my current rom, but the problem that I have is that my tablet really has the lock fastboot, and for that reason I have been looking for other alternatives in order to install custom roms without losing the current rom.

But now I'm in serious trouble because Goomanager urge upon the OpenRecovery-also install TWRP-2.5.0.0-hws7300u.img. using OPENRECOVERYSCRIPT.

This worked perfectly and manages to do the installation, but the problem is that not good for my huawei tablet and did not start properly.

I have now a recovery.img which is the stock of the tablet, but as I have the fastboot lock, I can not install it with adb and other methods I found surfing the web, so I ask for your help, if I can I can show you how to install the stock recovery in a safe and transparent, you do not need that this unlock fastboot.

Or if I can use the OpenRecoveryScript GooManager Scrip somehow to not install the OpenRecovery-TWRP-2.5.0.0-hws7300u.img and achieves install my recovery.img which is what I want to use.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] guap:
I have similar problem. Installed TWRP 2.5 but it's buggy, cannot complete data backup (hangs with reboot). I need to install a previous twrp version but can't use fastboot for practical reason and rom toolbox crash while starting to flash twrp 2.3 :|

any hint?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] guap:
Question: goomanager is able to flash a recovery with tablet on and not via adb fastboot, so can we flash a recovery (twrp or stock) via terminal emulator? How?

Any help.?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] TheMasterMindGT:
I have understood that it can be repaired but from linux, you have to press the button volume + and volume-for more than 30 seconds, this connected via USB and then get access to the 32 partitions mediapad there looking for the recovery.img and replace it by ready stock and fixed the problem.
