Hello everybody,

I am looking for help, I have created an addon theme for dark themes, but the playstore icon in prism appdrawer and the pause button in lockscreen are missing, does somebody know where these icons sits?

pause btn does not sit in any xxhdpi folder of htc music app and the apks which are relateing to this and in no framework xxhdpi folder.

Regards Pete
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] 2WildFirE:
If I'm right you can found the playstore icon in playstore. Apk

[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Pete2506:
Ah, yes but I mean the icon top right not the app icon itself.

Regards Pete

Yep, I mean the same, you can found it in playstore.apk

Indeed it is. [MENTION=4380624]Raymond Ebertt[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3415477]Onepagebook[/MENTION] had a discussion about it earlier in the thread, and I'm sure I also remember them concluding that the top right Playstore icon came from the playstore apk ( com.android.vending-1.apk in data/app)

Alright found it and it is themed now, so only pause btn in lockscreen is missing.

Lockscreen I cannot find an pause btn, but yeah notify widget, will look into that! Thanks!

[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Raymond Ebertt:
Lockscreen music icons are a bit tricky as they are scattered throughout the ROM. Have you looked in the resources apk? To be honest, I know I had some trouble with a few music related issues. I don't have the music apks themed at the moment but I do recall covering that issue at one time or another.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Pete2506:
I think I have all themed now. And all work, but the sit system wide and you also have to theme the ones in htcvideowidget in framework otherwise some where missing when you play a video outside of another app e.g. Whatsapp.

I having problem with compiling phone

it tells me where is the problem in android manifest but I don't know how to fix it

for example line 386 is <activity android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog.Alert" android:name="CWRegisterFailDialog" android:excludeFromRecents="true" />
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] ineedone:
I have several contact pictures in my thread, you can use any of them as a template for size and place of the needed images
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Raymond Ebertt:
I'm not familiar with your method of compiling apks. Most themers here use VTS for theming work. If you're getting a compiling error with a reference to the manifest, it seems that the manifest is broken. Take a look at the mainfest and the apk activity name. It should be this.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:androidprv="http://schemas.android.com/apk/prv/res/android" android:sharedUserId="android.uid.phone" android:sharedUserLabel="@string/dialerIconLabel" coreApp="true" package="com.android.phone">
<original-package android:name="com.android.phone"/>

The activity name should be com.android.phone

Other than that, I would know what to look for without seeing the error log generated from something I am familiar with.

Help with Prism.apk

Hi all,

I am new to decompiling and compiling apks and am having some issues. Whenever I try to recompile the Prism.apk I get errors. It decompiles fine but I can't recompile it even if I don't make any changes. I have tried a number of things. I tried with the newest version of Virtuous Ten Studio and had issues. I then tried using apktool directly and have the same problem. I tried with both apktool v 1.5.2 and v2.0.0-RC2. I get the same error. I have successfully decompiled/compiled other HTC apks just to try and make sure my setup was working. Can anyone please help or point me in a direction of where to look. I've been searching for the past couple of nights and nothing I try is working.

I am doing this from Windows 7 (32-bit)

Here is the output I get from apktool.

http://pastebin.com/jLZ0VvKL
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Neo:
If you are using VTS and doing just basic theme stuff (non smali) use the basic theme feature for decompiling and not Jack of all trades or all the other more detailed features. Not only will it be much faster to decompile and recompile, but you will likely have better luck with less of a chance for issues. (Windows 7 64-bit using VTS with latest APKTool and smali/baksmali)

Additionally, there are certain RUU/Stock apks that require patching prior to recompiling as they have broken pngs. OP has a folder with the needed pngs to drag and drop into the apk prior to decompiling
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] jsaxon2:
I just tried this and it works to compile but it does not allow me to get to values/integers.xml or values/dimens.xml to make changes. Those are the 2 files that I need to make changes to.

So I have tried all the configs in VTS.

Basic theming: I can compile but can't edit the files I need to get to.

Basic code editing: I can compile but can't edit the files I need to get to.

Advanced editing: I can get to the files but can't compile.

Basic HTC theming: I can get to the files but can't compile.

Advance HTC theming: I can get to the files but can't compile.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Neo:
Did you try patching the png issue beforehand as I'd mentioned near the end of my last post? Decompiling is easy without em but the compile part will get you. Other than that you got me. Monday I can always pull the stock prism and do a full decompile/compile and if it works, upload the decompiled bits for you.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] jsaxon2:
I went back to the OP and downloaded the Prism.zip. I opened the Prism.apk in 7Zip and copied the res files from the zip file into the apk file. I then opened the apk in VTS and decompiled but still have the same error when I recompile.

Did I do the correct steps? I apologize for being a noob but I do appreciate your help with this.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Neo:
To my knowledge yeah. Perhaps a real themer can help you further if they know what's up.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] jsaxon2:
Got it figured out. I feel stupid, but I didn't know.

What I had to do was delete the 1.apk file from the apktool\framework directory. Then copy the framework-res.apk to my apktool directory and run apktool if framework-res.apk

Compiles fine now.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Neo:
I assumed you were already compiling against your framework lol Glad you figured it out.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Basil3:
You have correct framework files installed, and are using the correct framework tag?

Haven't had problems with prism recently, so not sure what the issue is. Should be fine with RC2.

Edit: should read back properly [emoji14]
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] fisha21:
Glad you got the issue worked out, thanks for coming back and posting again.

If you're new to modding apks, there's some info about frameworks in post 2 of this thread. There's also a guide on installing frameworks in the VTS website which might be handy.

Did try to do a search but im not sure what to call it, but the overlay in the Settings when the toggles are on as seen in the picture. Anyone know how to remove those ?

Ps, it seems to be only Bluetooth, mobile data and Music Channel icons when they are on.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] ViNOK16Bit:
Yeah [MENTION=918378]Basil3[/MENTION] has pointed out how to fix that. You just need to replace the overlay color with something transparent.

settings.apk Data\smali\com\android\settings\framework\content\res\HtcResources.smali, search for

0x2010055 (category_color) , (line 652 in our case)

change to public id of something transparent

i changed to 0x7f0b0038
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] schmeggy929:
Ok thanks!
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] fisha21:

Help

Hi guys, so i updated my blinkfeed/launcher and started to theme it, made all the same edits i made in previous version of blinkfeed, it worked except that now im having a issue with the side panel background as seen in pic, trying to make it transparent, edited all backgrounds in color.xml, any thought or ideas thankshttps://www.dropbox.com/s/9focbazy215o2jk/Screenshot_2014-11-19-13-57-25.png?dl=0
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Raymond Ebertt:
Well, that specific background is ap_background_ color, #ffffffff. As to why it's not working again could be a number of things. I know blinkfeed changed a bit with the last update. Try doing a search in res folders for that color. There might be a new xml
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] kelvin216:
Ok thanks for info
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Basil3:
After wasting too much time with [MENTION=4380624]Raymond Ebertt[/MENTION] solving this, I can see two solutions:

Either edit common_catalog_group_item.xml in layout of prism/blinkfeed and change

com.htc.launcher.sidepanel.CatalogListGroupItem

to

com.htc.lib1.cc.widget.HtcListItem

at the start and end of the xml. This reverts this xml back to how it used to be before the latest update.

Alternatively, you could edit \smali\com\htc\launcher\sidepanel\CatalogListGroupItem.smali line 192:

const/4 v1, -0x1

change the -0x1 to whatever colour you want. Bear in mind you'll probably have to change const/4 v1 to const v1 also.

The smali edit hasn't been tested, but from what I can see it should be right.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] andybones:
you guys are awesome, thank you so much for everything and also for sharing and helping everyone out. I love this thread!
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] kelvin216:
Thank you

hey guys i just read the desire eye review on gsmarena and i saw some new themes there and i didn't know where to put it exactly so im gonna just share it here !

i wanna know if they could be ported to ONE M8 too! specially the blue theme cause its so cool!

thanks

edit: pics attached !
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Raymond Ebertt:
They don't need porting. Those are just color references in the styles of each independent apk and resources. All you would need to do is change the theme color in each specific apk. Most custom ROM's like Viper and Renovate have multiple themes now with a rainbow of colors to choose from. As a themer, just take one specific theme and change it to your liking.

Help modding

I started modding my message.apk and managed to modify multiple colors, but I didn't manage to modify the text color in the chat bubbles. I was wondering where these colors are. I know the colors changes with the theme but I dont manage to find those. I want the text in the bubbles to be green and no theme offers this possibility.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] ViNOK16Bit:
Are you sure? It must be in colors.xml of message.all when you change the color_bubble_me and color_bubble_other or something. Not sure how those lines are called of the top of my head..

I already did the drawable-xxhdpi folder.

drawable-400dpi?

drawable-xhdpi?

There is about 220 weather images, lol
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] ineedone:
Xxhdpi should normally do, tho 400dpi if ROM supports DPI settings
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] schmeggy929:
Yeah i did that folder going to try 400dpi folder, it only changes the clock and weather icons when a call comes in to white.

[One (M8) Themes and Apps] virago21788:
Just wondering if these popups were discussed anywhere. Thanks

Edit: Found the post.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] nashshafrulrezza:
If you looking for the fonts color.. It in color.xml.. for the clock number.. you need to edit the png in weather clock widget. You see a smaller png size than the other number pngs.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Pneuma1985:
Yeah try following like the 3 guides and tips we've laid out in this thread, the colors come out of resources but you don't really want that bc it'll change your whole Rom color lightprimary font. Plz use the guides.

My guide explains how to find the lightprimaryfont color id within the htcclockweather.apk please read the guide thoroughly and you will be able to do what your talking about.

You will create a new color in the app itself so it calls on that instead of resources.

Anyone know where I can find those white buttons? and this white bar?

Ok guys I got another one i just figured out...

Removing the ui notification drop-down bg fade in/fade out..

In SystemUI.apk you'll be looking in PhoneStatusBarView.smali

Search for this:
.method public panelExpansionChanged

Delete that entire method from lines 581-875 if you have smali debugging turned on which I always do when playing in smali enjoy.

Yup that one it basically blacks out the rest of the screen as you pull down the statusbar notifications.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Ty5982:
thank god for guides like this;)
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Pneuma1985:
Yeah man well for the most part we've had alot of practice lol. Fisha's notes from 5.5 were crazy extensive hopefully he posts all those for 6.0 would help out like crazy if the same stuff lines up... I imagine alot of the stuff in commonctrl is the same.

Hey anyone else notice there is no resources bug? I decompile/recompile resources and change a color in values now hypothetically that should break resources or at least it has in the last 8 builds or something since 4.0.2 so that was a while ago. My font enlarging tool still works! It used to break that if you decomped and recomped resources, anyone notice any other bugs with resources this time around?

Reason I ask is b/c up until now we've all been hexing resources.arsc out instead of changing any colors within the values/colors.xml. The fix was actually in the jars wondering if htc got around to fixing that.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] 2WildFirE:
Yep, not recources bug here, i'm happy now!
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Pneuma1985:
Yeah same here no bug in resources as far as i can tell! which is sweet: allows us to invert it easily.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] ViNOK16Bit:
Yeah it is great. Except I was faster hex editing resources.arsc whith every rom update then changing colors.xml. hex editing the new colors.xml from htc.resources is a whole new story now :D

Sent from my HTC One using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Pneuma1985:
Yeah I'm not as good at hex as I am at xml lol...I see your a hex pro so yeah I'd imagine so ;)

But inversion with hex was much easier lol i will say that only like 5 or 6 of those listviews and bang inverted.

I get it but yeah quite a task for me the whole everything is reverse throws me off. I'm not a big hex specialist. I got better with it last time around with some guidance from fisha.

Yeah it is omg figuring out which color is which is insane i checked out the hex this time around its nuts so many more colors!
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] maurydes:
yes confirm that the resources are correctly filled out, instead I have any problem with the prism though vts everything works fine I get fc in blinkfeed.others?
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] Pneuma1985:
Nope works good for me but i couldnt get it decompiled originally I got ken's prism folder and .proj and used his, it works good. Fisha told me to use the new smali 2.0.3 to decompile it but it still got errors. So yeah maybe thats your issue use the new smali/baksmali versions on it..
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] ineedone:
Have the same problem, so I hex edit with the color.xml beside it for reference. Also had some issues decompiling com.htc.videohub.ui due to some corrupt images. After replacing them, it decompiled correctly ?. Did not try if just removing the corrupt images also made it possible to decompile...
