Hi demmo81

We are the ones to have the grateful honor of being accepted inside your device :D

If your S3 was AllBacksBlack S3.3 so you are viewing this project from start to end ;)

Thank you dude.

EDIT: [MENTION=4147269]demmo81[/MENTION] as our 1st ever (noticed) Bahrain customer, you've just got a completely free mention!!! :D (just did it)

Hi swagatsourav

Thanks for asking.

Unfortunately there is no direct 'apk' to be pushed.

This project, as so many others Theme projects, is delivered to the customers using the Wonderful VillainTheme System.

In short what vrTheme does is:

a) Copy itself along with the distributed theme files to a temporary directory inside yours device;

b) Makes a backup of each apk you have that matches the ones of the theme;

c) Unzip those backed up files;

d) Copy the theme files over the extracted ones replacing them;

e) Zip back all the those apk's;

f) Push them back to your \system folders.

That's it and why you will be away from most theming releases while not having a custom recovery.

Hope see you back soon :D

Nice regards.

Thanks Khizar,

Regarding the DPI I thought as much.

Here is what the popup looks like on mine.

Please forgive the crappy image.

Thanks for the feed back 954wrecker.

Hi rockadz9,

I'm glad you are enjoying the theme, could you tell me what ROM you are running at present?

Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback demmo81, it is greatly appreciated.

Hi swagatsourav,

I suggest since you are already rooted that you flash a custom recovery so that you can take advantage of all that having a 3rd party recovery has to offer, unless of course you acquired root a la Root De La Vega to keep Knox intact.

Cheers.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] :
hello,

what is exactly the link to download this theme and flash on my device (I'm on N900, K5, dr.Ketan ROM).

in OP I see only update link and some ROM specific files.

thank you in advance.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] coldmethod:
Hey Daster_x,

See here, sorry for the confusion, where you saw the "update" is where the files are.

Update text removed from OP to save confusion.

Let us know how you go after installation.

Thanks.

flashed - unfortunately the E-mail is crashing ("Unfortunately, Email has stopped")....

as this is device I use for work... it is an issue for me.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] coldmethod:
Hey Daster_x,

I am guessing that Dr Ketan ROM's have a modded SecEmail_J.apk, if you where to push a stock apk into system and reapply the theme I would almost guarantee it will work.

Cheers.

Man ur work is amazing really I always love the black and white work not blue....

Thanks for the mention m8 and yes I'm the first from bahrain :) and I'll keep this theme as long as I have my phone believe me :) what a beauty really specially the keyboard.... :)

I have a question of I may it will work with S5 menu settings ? I'm thinking to use the S5 icons and everything .. if not I'll not change... now I can't live without it this amazing theme
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] orei:
Does this theme work with different dpi? or is only for stock 480dpi? Thanks man!!!
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] LeftyGR:
As long as it's on a note3, it "should" work regardless of what dpi you have set. However, it is possible that some things might revert. Only way to know is to try it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] benjaminclaw:
Yeah there's no reason what it wouldn't work to the degree that stock works. There are some stock apps that need to be original dpi, but that issue is also on stock. I change my dpi and it works fine.

Omega v24

Anybody know if this works on Omega Rome v24?

I would test myself but just don't have the time right now.

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] 4aces:
As long as it's not lollipop the core files should work
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] skengman:
Thanks 4aces. ..shall try it out
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] 4aces:
If you run into any issues just dirty flash the ROM and you're back to normal. It'd be very nice if you try and share the result :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] skengman:
4aces I tried to to flash it, would not flash says it could not open the .zip package. Phone/rom still working tho. I'm a slight noob lol any ideas?

P.s I'm flashing the .zip from external sd
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] 4aces:
Is omega v24 kitkat based or lollipop? Usually you just flash in recovery...another thing could be a bad download.

I'd test but I upgraded to lollipop...
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] skengman:
It's 4.4, went into CWM Recovery, wiped dalvik etc. Download from the link in forum, will try again.

Not sure if moving the file to internal storage will make much difference. Will keep you updated

---------- Post added at 12:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:14 PM ----------

4aces no luck unfortunately, tired to flash from internal & external. Just aborts installation saying package is bad
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] 4aces:
Ok then I'm pretty sure it's the download. Try to download the core files again from PC. The file should open regardless of the ROM you are using. I also used internal as well as external so I'm sure that isn't the problem as well.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] skengman:
Will do, keep you post as it should work, don't see a reason why it won't. I did have Lollipop but downgraded as I missed xposed to much
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] 4aces:
I suppuse you downgraded with a clean flash? Also may I ask if you upgraded bootloader?
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] skengman:
I flashed CWM ages ago, had Omega V23 then flashed a lollipop rom before wiping and installing Omega v24.

Not sure if the bootloader was done with any of them packages tho...
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] 4aces:
Ok so only flashed zip files if I read it right...then your bootloader isn't lollipoped.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] skengman:
Yeah only flashed zip files from CWM Recovery. Obviously 1st time I used Odin. ..from then I have done it manually.

Sorry in advance if I sound like a idiot, I promise I'm not a complete noob lol
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] 4aces:
No you don't. Sweating on using odin seems to be a common thing ;)

I just can't see any other problem then a bad download atm.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] skengman:
Yeah I think it's the download, tried 2x on phone says it's corrupt. Will try again on laptop after work and let you know how that goes..

Thanks for the help tho much appreciated ;)

Modified Theme Black

Hello I have always enjoyed your work and as a tribute to your art, I modified some of your files to create a dialer and a GUI slightly different from what you've implemented in your last job.

I made the changes, hoping not to hurt your feelings and that of other dev I was inspired.

I'm just a fan.

I hope not to offend the sensibilities of anyone.:o

I attach some screenshots to evaluate the work done.

Attached, you will find the links to my works

Some recommendations (I personal tested on ROM tkari4 v2.7-2.8 and jackaway GNH1.v3 but I think works in all ROM 4.4.2 KK)

Phone with root permission

It must begin with a GUI stock KK 4.4.2 N9005

BEFORE installing the .zip chosen erase memories dalwik and cache

Use TWRP 2.8.4.0 or other recovery updated.

Just choose one of two files:

VertigoneDark_v1.0_icon_gray_Blu_toggle (Mega)

(It has icons in setting, gray ad round)

VertigoneDark_v1.0_icon_Stock_Blu_toggle (Mega)

(has icons in setting, stock)

I apologize because my job takes me around Europe and do not have the time to answer PM email that I receive, and other future request posted on the forum.

All people flash at own risk

I am not responsible to damage yours phone

Hey Daster_x

Anyway, thanks for trying. As our Master ColdMethod already pointed out, we had this same issue and with the great help of [MENTION=5671007]ghalib87[/MENTION] it has been solved. Please advise if the same medicine took out this headache from your ;)

Hi demmo81

At the moment we do not have any report on this. We had focused our efforts over stock versions only.

Could you please provide a link to the mod you are intending to flash so I may take a look on it and advise accordingly.

But if you do try anyway, please advise the results. Now you are eligible to a wonderful and amazing 2sd mention :D

Nice regards and thanks for your support.

Hey Daster_x,

As I said earlier, if you push a stock SecEmail_J.apk into /system/app set permissions (rw-r-r) and owner to system restart then re-flash the theme you will be good to go.

As [MENTION=2147860]Kdio[/MENTION] pointed out (I forgot), this same issue was resolved using the above method.

If you have any problems drop me a line.

good morning everyone. just checking, i'm on sprint rooted stock. great work, loving the dark theme! the only quirk i noticed so far is that when i use the secmms (or whatever the touchwiz stock mms is called) the theme makes the letters black, with the background black. it's self explanatory, i hope, but i can include a picture if you'd like.

anyway, anyone else noticed this and if so, how you fix it? there's no way for me to change the font color in the options menu...

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Kdio:
Hi skoobz

You can see how SecMms.apk is intended to look like at the second row 5th column of the screenshots at OP.

I too can assure you that the theme did not changed the text colors but indeed the background. For me, seems that your device variant already has black texts and as flashing this work they become invisible.

To overcome this issue please:

1) With your favorite Zip Manager, open (do not extract) AllBacksBlack zip package.

2) Navigate to \source\system\priv-app and delete the folder called SecMms.apk.

3) Close the zip and flash your own personalized version of AllBacksBlack without messing with Mms ;)

Thank you and nice regards.

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] coldmethod:
And what a joy it is:silly:, it doesn't help that I am somewhat OCD and can't leave things alone.:p

You are not the only one Khizar, I don't particularly like the S5 UI either the more I look at this settings panel the less I like it. Plus the ports don't look that good the functionality isn't there and some of the masks and such are missing as they are probably part of the S5 Systemui.apk. Take a look at the below images anyway. In the second image you can see the pressed icon... it looks crap and I don"t think there is anything we can do about it. Plus I don't think you can just black it out as the .9.png is used universally within settings I believe. Also I changed the icons to square, as round just looked odd [MENTION=2147860]Kdio[/MENTION] do you have any ideas?

Hey androidslinger,

Do the toggles on your phone look exactly like image you attached? Have a look at the screens I put up above, you will see that the icons that I changed look similar to yours in respect to the background, yet on the phone at full brightness it looks perfect. Apart from the crap pressed icon.

Cheers.

If you are confident in your abilities by all means give it a go, be sure to backup the apk's you plan on modding and test it on one of the less critical apps first just to be sure, let us know how you go, and make sure to check your permissions.

Hey unholygid,

Have you tried pushing the unmodded apk's from your ROM back into their respective folders then re-flashing the theme. If not give it a go (should work).

Cheers.
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] unholygid:
Hi OP,

Thanks a lot for the suggestion. I will try it but what do you mean by pushing the apks into their respective folders?

Do you mean replacing the apks in the " vrtheme-backup" into the system folders, give rw access and then reflash theme?
