Ok well the images you can edit with a app like Photoshop Touch... You have to be careful though.. I would not suggest editing any .9pngs bc those take special consideration..

The txt you have to find it, then change the hex and/or color..for example:

</LinearLayout>
[COLOR="DarkOrange"]<ImageView[/COLOR] android:id="@[COLOR="Green"]id/city_weatehr_icon"[/COLOR] android:layout_width="40.0dip" android:layout_height="40.0dip" android:layout_marginTop="61.399994dip" android:scaleType="fitXY" android:layout_alignParentTop="true" android:layout_alignParentRight="true" />
<LinearLayout android:gravity="right" android:orientation="vertical" android:paddingTop="4.0dip" android:paddingBottom="29.599976dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginRight="6.399994dip" android:layout_toLeftOf="@id/temperature_layout" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true">
<LinearLayout android:gravity="center_vertical" android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content">
[COLOR="rgb(255, 140, 0)"]<ImageView[/COLOR] android:id="[COLOR="Green"]@id/city_icon"[/COLOR] android:layout_width="12.799988dip" android:layout_height="12.799988dip" android:layout_marginRight="1.5999756dip" android:src=" [COLOR="Cyan"]@drawable/weather_icon_location"[/COLOR] android:scaleType="fitXY" />
[COLOR="rgb(255, 140, 0)"]<TextView[/COLOR] android:textSize="12.0dip" [COLOR="Red"]android:textColor="#cc000000"[/COLOR] android:gravity="right|center" android:id="@id/city_text" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" [COLOR="Red"]android:shadowColor="#ffffffff" [/COLOR]android:shadowDy="3.2" android:shadowRadius="1.6" />
</LinearLayout>

This is AccuweatherPhone2013.apk.. this particular line is located in layout-sw359dp-xxhdpi/city_conditions.xml..

In ORANGE i highlighted importanat features of the xml.. They point to what the line consist of..

In GREEN i highlighted "android:id" these are important bc they identify what it actually is you are modifing..

In BLUE you have the "@drawable" this is the actual png or it can be another xml with more information..

In RED is "android:textColor" or "android:shadowColor" these are colors of "text" and then a "shadow" color of the text.. You would want to change these values to whatever you decide..

Really theming is all about trial and error.. It takes awhile to learn where things are and how things work.. Your BEST tool is this Forum, XDA, and the search tool..

If you have any other ?'s post them here and i will try to help you out..

You need to search inside the apk you just decompiled and find what you want to edit..

You also need to use the "search" option in this forum and do some research/reading.. We are here to get you kind of started but no one is going hold your hand and take you step by step..

Can anyone provide me a link and instruction for a ROM of GALAXY N9000 note 3 which is a REPLICA Phone..?? please!! help me if this work i will donate you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] FunnyCop:
I honesty don't know how to describe my problem so I guess I will just tell you whats happening and what I know about my phone.

My phone:

Unlocked Verizon Galaxy S3 running CM for recovery, and CyanogenMod 10 for the ROM (Updated with Odin from Jelly Bean).

The issue:

1) Whenever I press the power button the phone completely shuts off. It doesn't just go to the lock screen, it turns off.

2) The phone will not always turn back on.

3) 85% of the time when it doesn't turn on, it boots into the first splash screen and turns off.

4) When I try to put the phone into download or recovery mode the first screen will pop up for about two seconds and then the phone will turn off again. The phone will either shut down on the cancel/download screen for download mode or the first splash screen with the blue text at the top for recovery mode.

5) The other 15% of the time it will reach the CyanogenMod screen, freeze, then shut off.

6) When I put it on the charger, the stock charging icon pops up but then the phone stops charging and shuts off. (It will charge correctly some times)

These things don't just happen if I press the power button. I used a custom app to turn the phone off without the power button and the problems still occurred. :mad:

Things I've tried:

1) Replacing the battery.

2) Switching chargers.

3) Leaving the phone on the charger for a while.

4) Taking the battery out for extended amounts of time.

5) Just leaving the phone alone for a while.

No, the power button isn't stuck... I don't think it is :confused:

I am aware that the motherboard might need replaced. However, most of the cases I read about involved the phone not turning on/charging at all. If I could get the phone into recovery mode I would clear the cache and see if that worked, if not I would just factory reset the phone. If I could get into download mode, I would flash a stock firmware and be done with it.

This is my second android phone and I've never had this problem before. I did my experimenting with my old Motorola Droid so I could make sure I knew what was safe with my S3 but apparently there is something wrong.

I greatly appreciate any and all help and please do help me :(

[EDIT #1]

I began hitting the power button against a hard surface and 1 out of 7 times it works. Perhaps the button is stuck.

[EDIT #2]

I am now able to press the power button without the phone turning off. I will still make a back up and sync all of my important media and prepare to have to factory reset and flash a new ROM.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowswittness:
Can anyone help explain the lack of Rom development on the 10.1 ? Those who have had it would you recommend returning it for the note 8.0 ?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tquarter:
I'm wishing I had got the tab 2 10.1 instead of this. I thought there would be more intrest in development by now. My last tab was the dell streak 7, and I just can't believe I have bought another orphan. At least samsung says we are getting kitkat. It's just so disheartening to see all those choices of custom roms in the tab 2 10.1 forum.:(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jambon58:
So I've flashed DirtyUnicorn 4.2.2 from Macks ALLSTAR. Alls well except I can't access my previous internal memory through es file or drives. Both apps show memory taken by previous data but can't search for the files I know exist. If booting into recovery I can see the folders. How can I access these files?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rawrluiz:
I've never understood how the screen works while charging, while the phone is off. Is this some sort of system partition, or low powered mode? The reason why I ask, is whenever I try and charge it, the screen stays on, along with the LED Notification light. It never changes, and thus, I can never tell when it's 'fully' charged.

Any help? Is there a way to fix this by flashing something? I feel weird having my screen on all night trying to charge my phone.

Also, I forgot to mention, I can't turn it on, while it's off and charging. If I try to, it seems to freeze, and the only way to turn it on, is to disconnect, and hold the power button until it reboots. Have I messed up something crucial?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] medow70:
Hi, I've been browsing the forums for people's attempts to fix a problem. At first the phone just turned off and I was unable to turn it on because it was stuck in a boot loop. The rom I had running was an ICS stock rom from hk. During this time i was still able to get into download mode but unable to enter recovery. I have tried many times to get to recovery and then tried to flash with several stock roms too. Upon failing around 10 times I moved on to a custom rom.

This one here:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/help/guide-26-12-flash-stock-firmware-rom-t2365701

The Jelly bean one here.

Upon failing from this too and unable to do anything but reset the phone and try again. I managed to turn it off... but now unable to turn it on in any way or get into download mode or recovery.

Is there anything I can try to do to get the phone to be working? What can I do?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Try a jig but understand it's very unlikely to get you into download mode. Service centre or local mobile repair shop for diagnosis (I also doubt it will be JTAG'able).

Edit - Also, search for KingRat's 'jump start' method where you try & boot the phone with just the charger/without the battery.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marjune23:
Don't loose hope mate...

Try remove battery and insert charger (optional)...

Press voldown+home+power button then let someone (your mother, father, brother, sister, neighbor or friends) insert the battery for you while still pressing those 3 keys...

I hope it will enter to download mode again...and report back please...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
You know what the options are then. Ignore people making ridiculous suggestions which don't work. My aim is to be honest with people, tell them the truth, and have them either get their phones fixed or replaced as quickly as possible in this situation (let's face it, nobody likes to be without a phone), rather than fill them with false hope & waste their time.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] medow70:
I think I fried my mobo while trying to flash it cause it does head up the phone without showing anything. I am going to order parts on ebay. I got this confirmed by someone at a shop near where I live, however they won't replace the mobo for me even if i do find a working one.

=) luckily this isn't my phone but my dad's who works at home and doesn't mind using an OLD OLD flip phone just for calls for the time being.

Side question, even if i replace the mobo and I get it booted but I still get stuck in the boot screen loop and unable to flash to any stock roms what can I do?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
If you replace the motherboard you should fix it without further problems. New motherboard = new NAND, no more bootloop - unless you flash again & the flash is bad; you can't mitigate the risk of a bad flash, you can only do all the sensible things like making sure you're using a PC with reliable USB ports, that you're flashing the correct firmware for your device, that you're using an original Samsung USB cable. Basically, if you're careful, the risk with any given flash is very low.

So, fix the hardware problem, flash stock for your country/carrier once you've done that, and go from there.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
I suppose it's all down to what you've used the app to do. All I've done is set up some LED colours for certain apps. I've not used the sound preferences, I've not changed how often it flashes or the speed of the flashes so I'm using the app in a very basic setup. The more you have the app doing, the more it'll use battery
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
No.

In contrast to above I use it to control nearly all my notifications, LED colours and flash frequencies. No drain.

There is a lightflow discussion thread here which the developer checks.

Set up the app as per developer's website. If you (still) have actual drain, try to get a logcat plus BBS showing wakelocks. He is pretty responsive to these things

I flashed this file; Galaxy-S-fre3-MB1FirmwareModemAIO.zip, specifically. Is there any way to revive my device without having to JIG it or is it just done for? I was also on a KitKat rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] joeyhdownsouth:
Sounds like its toast without a jig or JTAG. You could have switched to PHILZ ADVANCED CWM recovery. This recovery works better than TWRP or regular CWM. I had many of different issues with these 2. This zip is not a ROM, but a modem zip.

If you have a Virgin Mobile SPH-L710, you can use the de-brick image below, otherwise you need to search around Google for one. You would search for "debrick image for <model numeber>".

I got this problem solved with the help of zachf714, invisiblek and a special thanks to xstefen for providing a working debrick image. Here is the link to the working debrick image that xstefen provided: http ://download.xstefen.net /getdownload.php?file=./xstefen/mmcblk0_backup.bin.zip. (Remove spaces) all you need to do, is write this image to a micro SD card using linux's

dd

command or Win32 Disk Imager. Then put the sd card in your phone, boot into download mode and flash a stock ROM using Odin.

Wish anyone else who have this problem luck.

[General Questions and Answers] Fantassy123:
I don't really know what you mean but yeah let's make the most out of it.

You can Thether your Wi-fi on your Android phone and then connect it using 2 USB cables or you can turn on 1 Android wi-fi hotspot and connect the 2 Computers to it.

You can also turn on 2 Android wi-fi hotspots because connecting 2 pc on 1 Hotspot will slow down your Internet connection.
[General Questions and Answers] Suraido:
Well it depends on what you want to do exactly, cause android phones dont really support this. You can tether your mobile data connection to one PC via USB and use it to have internet, but the only way you can actually really have 2 pcs see each other through an android phone is through the WiFi hotspot, so if your computers don't have a WiFi card, this wont work. And plugging one phone to a PC and the other to the other PC will only give you internet on both computers and that's it. If you truly want to have both PC comunicate with each other without WiFi, the only option that's viable and won't cost too much is buying a crossover ethernet cable (cable with the transmit and receive wires inverted on one end) and plugging it in both LAN cards. That way both PCs will see each other and you will be able to share files on them, and you can even plug one android phone on one of the PCs to give it internet and share the internet connection with the second PC though the LAN card and crossover cable. Other than that you can also buy either a switch or a router and plug both computers on it with normal ethernet cables, but that'll cost you a bit more than juste a crossover cable. Also, note than you can connect ur android phone on the router if it has WiFi built in, but you wont be able to share the internet connection via the router. You will also need to plug it with USB and share internet via the computer which has the phone plugged in. Hope this helps even if it wasn't quite what you're asking, but it's the only way to do what you want without having to go all out trying to create custom scripts and all and risk bricking your android phones just to connect 2 computers together when you can just take a normal ethernet cable u have lying around and hack it up to convert it to a crossover without spending a single dollar if you don't want to actually buy a new crossover cable which might cost like 5$.

I've had this frequently on ROMS I've flashed despite the phone actually charging.

It's a small price to pay for all the benefits that come from a custom ROM.
