I'm sure all you guys here know this...

But in case some of you guys have made a backup and have a blank file with 0kb in size,

how to get your backup to appear:

Download and open terminal emulator.

Grant it SU privelages by typing su

Press enter, grant.

Type:

restorecon -FR /data/media/0

Press enter

And it should say something about content loaded etc..

Exit app

Now your backup should be visible.

I'm sure most users know this it is just for the few that might need the info :)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] HTC Blackheart:
I dont know about backup.

what should i do sir? sorry. after you guys help me. promise i will help too
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
Have you ever booted into recovery and created a backup of your rom?

EDIT:

If yes, you should have the TWRP folder on your devices storage.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] HTC Blackheart:
there are too many choices to pick on :(

there are cache boot data and system.dont know what to do and what to pick
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
OK, so you're totally new to TWRP. So if this is your first backup, select all of them and confirm with a swipe.

TWRP will then create the "TWRP" folder on your devices storage.

Inside the TWRP folder will be another folder called "Backups" (that holds the backup you just created).

Make the "theme" folder, copy the ui.zip into the "theme" folder.

Again, the video in OP should help you installing the theme once you've ran the backup.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] HTC Blackheart:
Done Backing Up.

But i did search for the entire location, there are no TWRP folder.

Some location are saying Access Denied. And im using FX Explorer that doest prompt a SU User.

Regarding TWRP 2853

Ok, regarding TWRP 2853:

According to Dees_Troy, the 2853 recovery for hammerhead only contains a fix needed for encrypted devices.

So if you don't have your device encrypted, there's no need to use 2853, you're not missing out on anything.

As I'm currently on a tight schedule and thus would really like to avoid making an interim theme version, I'd suggest to roll back to 2852 and use the 285X_v1 theme until the 2860 release (which might need another week till release).

If you are relying on encryption and therefore need 2853, please use the stock ui until next weeks update.

The 5.0 preview doesn't seem to show the twrp folder...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] rpr69:
Looks fantastic on my N5! I am on the L preview, and for whatever reason (I assume due to selinux) in the OS I cannot see the TWRP folder under /sdcard. If I open a root terminal I can see that it exists, but I get a permission denied error if I try and do anything, even though I have root. I did the complete install inside TWRP, using shell commands. It worked perfectly, if a little awkward. Just an FYI for anyone else in my position.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] AA1973:
Nexus 5, Android L, SuperSU, Total Commander

Is it that directory which is not accessible?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
Regarding the L preview discussion: while I see the folders, the ui.zip inside the theme folder isn't shown. Let's hope things will work for everyone once L goes official.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Citizen_Snips:
There's a fix for internal storage in Vomers OP. Not sure if you guys tried it or how it worked.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] AA1973:
I can see the content of the /theme folder, too.

UI.zip and 2 other theme zips.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] varuntis1993:
Even I had the issue with multirom folder and twrp folder being 0bytes. Change the selinux mode to permissive instead of enforcing. use the app or the other kernel which is available. . I guess its an issue with chainfire kernel for lollipop and its implementation for now. And default multirom kernel might be based on that.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
First, glad you got it working.

Second, what the guys have done over in the M7 thread (creating a recovery with another splash screen) you can do yourself, on the device.

This video (yes, the one from the OP) explains very well how to do it, and were you can find splash screens (not the one you're referring to though).

If you prefer reading, then here's my step by step guide.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] HTC Blackheart:
I'm almost 80% on changing the Splash Screen TWRP

but got a problem on which Folder http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2

on the Video he got; openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-shamu.img

So I need to know if i use Shamu also or this openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.0-a11.img
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
Shamu is the codename for the Nexus 6 (as M7 is for your HTC One).

You need to repack the exact same recovery you installed on your device. Latest official from team win for your device is this:

All themes updated for 2860

All themes updated for 2860

Changelog:

corrected positioning and height of headerless lists (due to fixes in the theme engine)

corrected positioning of confirmation sliders (due to fixes in the theme engine)

added "disable size check" option to backup page

added support for monospace ttf in console

added support for entering a pattern to decrypt the data partition(only accessible if device is encrypted and the theme is integrated into the image)

added DST rules to time zones for USA and Europe

ownership of recovery images created during repacking is now set to media_rw:media_rw (should solve the problem of "undeletable" image files)

changed position of fab (sits closer to the navbar now)

Download from the 286X_v1 folder for your resolution.

Those of you using the Android Image Kitchen to repack recovery images with custom splash screens, also might want to upgrade to the latest AIK version: mobile AIK 1.8

I'm unable to change the accent colors on my Nexus 5 (LMY47I) . I'm also unable to change the splash screen.

TWRP 2.8.6.1 LIGHT
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
I'm in the same boat, but was waiting for more users to confirm. So currently there's only the two of us having trouble.

Would be nice if more users could comment on this.

Also, there are reports in the TWRP thread about 2860 not working correctly, and that a fix is in the making.

I built the recovery from source last night, and it's working no problem (color changing, repacking, all the basic functions like backup, wipe, restore, flashing roms and gapps and stuff).

But I'm uncertain if I should share my build, as it's not tested with encrypted devices.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] adomol:
Snap... I just repacked a TON of twrp.img files too! :eek:

Hopefully this isn't across all Nexus devices...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] rpr69:
From what I read, the build (in at least one case) was missing the busybox binary, which would be a big deal...now I could be wrong, don't quote me on that, just what I read.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] osm0sis:
That's definitely due to busybox missing in official 2.8.6.0, since all that stuff relies heavily on scripts that use busybox functions.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
OK then, so until the official update comes along, here's my 2860 build with busybox included:

Working great! Any idea why it's 2mb smaller than the official?

[MENTION=4878287]_that[/MENTION] DST appears broken in Atlantic timezone. It was working in 2.8.5.2. Regression from your new rules? :confused:
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
Not the slightest. It's build from omni 5.1 source and device tree, dunno what the official one uses. But as long as everything's working...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] _that:
I didn't touch Atlantic at all - only the 4 main U.S time zones and 3 in Europe: https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/c/12827/2/gui/devices/portrait/res/portrait.xml - if it is wrong now, it should have been wrong before. Or z31s1g did something different in his theme.

I'm aware that this is only a "90% fix" - it should be more correct than before for *most* users, but will be wrong for a few others. Not all time zones with the same UTC offset also have the same DST rules, and to properly support them all we need more selections in the list box and a proper time zone database.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] osm0sis:
Haha I think Atlantic always was broken and I just hadn't looked at it since we went back to DST here.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] synesthete:
First off, I would like to thank you for this project. My recovery has never looked so pretty.

Second, I seem to be experiencing a bug. Everything worked fine on TWRP 2.8.5, but since installing the latest 2.8.6 and your updated 286X_v1_1080_dark.zip theme file, I have not been able to change colors. The theme stays light blue after selecting a different color and refreshing /rebooting.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] VictorLapin:
Not confirmed here, I have successfully changed color to my favourite blue-grey :)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
That's a bug with twrp itself. Use this if you want the color change to work again. But be aware that this build is also flawed: using compression for backups makes backing up very slow.

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

Edit: That worked.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] nfin1te:
Same problem here.

Deleted old theme, updated from 2.8.5.1. to 2.8.6.0 and installed new theme afterwards. So the solution doesn't apply here. I just think it's a bug. Dark theme here.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
No idea what else to look for, its working fine here. In multirom, on standard twrp and on my personal builds.

And the only reason for this "shifted slider issue" is a mismatch between twrp and theme version, it appears across all devices (due to a change in the theme engine), and it always goes away after updating both (recovery and theme) to the latest versions.

So if that's what you did, I could only ask you to double check again.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] fsi09:
Same problem with the play theme. Now I use 2.5.X theme with 2.6.0 TWRP Recovery and I can swipe to install :D
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] nfin1te:
I dont know what to do either, it clearly states 2.8.6.0 when i boot up recovery and as soon i install the theme im facing the broken slider issue :/

D802 btw if that matters
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
It might matter. Is your recovery an official version or provided by an xda user?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] nfin1te:
its blastagators recovery from here: http://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/development/twrp-twrp-2-8-0-0-kernel-f2fs-tools-t2898705

works great otherwise.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] fsi09:
I also have D802 with this recovery: http://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/development/twrp-twrp-2-8-0-0-kernel-f2fs-tools-t2898705

TWRP 2.5.1 with 2.5.X theme works, TWRP 2.6.0 with 2.6 theme the slider is on the right sight so I cant install somethin, TWRP 2.6.0 with 2.5X them works
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
And the reason is that this custom build of twrp does not include all changes that make the official 2860. And while it makes sense that the sliders work with the 285x theme, it could be that some lists are horizontally misaligned.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] nfin1te:
Ok, so what does that mean for us? Should we just use the old version of the theme? Will you "fix" (since there isnt really a bug per se) the new themes? It has worked well with this recovery until 2.8.6.0.

Thanks for pointing out the issue. :)

The Answer to The Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything is: CLEAN FLASH.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
I guess you're using the recovery because it has f2fs support (and the official doesn't?). So using official twrp isn't an option.

But if the 285x theme is working alright, then there isn't really a problem.

I will not roll back a change in the theme that is in line with the twrp source.

From my point of view the blastagator recovery needs an update to reflect the latest changes in twrps theme engine.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] nfin1te:
Exactly. I see and understand your point of view, makes sense. I will tell blastagator about the problem, maybe he can do smth. about it. I will just use the old theme for now.

Thank you very much!

Hi z31s1g,

I have a question.. I tried these themes for my S3 by using 720 variants. Everything working great except one thing. If I deselect use Aroma file manager from theme settings, I am able to use Aroma file manager from home File Manager menu opton however if I select use Aroma File manager in themes setting and go to main home file manager menu option, I will get an option to swipe to use Aroma file manager. If I do that my phone hangs and I will have to reboot recovery..

Any solution or cause of this issue?

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
If aroma fm is not selected, you should be able to access the twrp file manager.

If aroma fm is selected, the file manager button will take you to a "swipe to start aroma fm" page.

So much for the intended behaviour.

I just tried it on my nexus 6 and can't get aroma fm to work either.

Doesn't matter if I try to start it through the file manager button or by using the "install zip" page.

Doesn't matter if I use the theme or not, aroma fm simply doesn't work for me on 2860.

After swiping, all I get is a black screen and I need to hold the power button to reboot the device.

I remember it was working on 2850. I don't have another solution than waiting for the next update (of twrp or aroma fm) to hopefully fix this issue.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] krija:
I'm on LG G2 and latest blastagator's recovery (2861) and aroma fm works like a charm.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] osm0sis:
Works here. You using the new AROMA FM betas?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
2.0something. Will try with a newer one.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] osm0sis:
I'm on 2.00b7 which I think is the latest. :good:
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
No dice. At least on the nexus 6 twrp crashes.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] nicesoni_ash:
Tried flashing 2850 back on my i9300 and aroma still doesn't work for me through these themes. If I remove these themes aroma v1.91 works by flashing the zip but v2.0 beta7 still doesn't work and screen keeps flashing and I have to exit it using normal method but at least it doesn't hangs but hangs while using these themes.

I have one more question about i9300. You used to have a thread for S3 for holofied themes but then later you closed that and now there is no specific thread for S3, any reason?

Thanks.

PS - aroma v1.91 works fine in Philz but 2.0 beta7 doesn't work in Philz too as status 0 showed.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] z31s1g:
The reason is that I didn't want to maintain so much device specific threads any longer.

Now there's the generic thread for all devices and resolutions, and only the devices I have at my disposal still have their dedicated threads.

Also, the S3 has never played well with my themes. A lot of users can't use them at all, because the recovery crashes/refuses to boot with the theme applied.

If some aroma fm versions work fine on your device without the theme applied, that might be another indication.

So an S3 thread would be a collection of "doesn't work" posts, where there wouldn't be anything for me to fix.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] nicesoni_ash:
It's ok, I will keep trying generic versions for my s3 as I love them. Will wait for next twrp update .

I'm aware you're on board since the early holofied days (I believe I borrowed your flashable zip once...).

As for the S3, there's still hope. I intend to put the material themes on a diet in the future (similar to the holofied minimal themes).

As there seems to be a correlation between theme size and s3 compatibility, chances are that the themes will work better again on this device.
