Hey Cerj

How is that, themeing for the theme store? A more difficult process or essentially the same?

Thanks for thinking of us Touchwiz guys, i know cm is taking over the world. Lol

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
It's actually a much easier process, but doesn't theme as deep . Once I've made one and post it, I guess we can all decide whether I should theme each apk like my old TW themes or roll with this new TW theme engine
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] drbveb88:
I already know my answer but its alot more work for you. [emoji12] Talk to you soon buddy!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
I agree, the right way to theme these is to do each apk.. And I an willing to do it.. But I'll get a theme up for the guys that want to use the TW theme engine , then I'll see about doing a complete theme. I'm actually a big fan of TW lollipop. Most CM Themers and users are not fans of TW.. So I will get us something very soon, it's already in the works

Anyone have any pull downs i can flash on this thing i havent seen any unless i missed it while scrolling trough posts ,thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
Besides the ones that come with.?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:
It comes with some ? I wasnt aware it does i flashed the theme and mine was black background
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] fly4awhtgye:
On some older KitKat rom I was able to use Xposed module called XBLAST to change pull down image. I also remember transparency not allowing me to make selections another time. Maybe try that.

I am actually waiting for this too.

I like using somewhat bright wallpapers but I've been limited to using dark colors lately because of the overlapping. I personally would like to see something like a 50% transparency option. I'm sure the man is probably already cooking something up for us. ;)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kaos420:
did you get it? i seen your original post. all i did was download and flash with philz. only recovery i use.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] LouRock:
Yeah there was actually nothing wrong with it. I was just under the impression that these background mods would also change the backgrounds of the dialer and sms messenger to match the system settings background. I find the current background transparencies of the sms messenger and dialer a little too transparent and was hoping this would unify all three backgrounds to a specific setting such as the 53% or the solid background.

[MENTION=4930664]cerj[/MENTION] Hey bro if its not too much work, you think you can (Please) hook up something like this? :o
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Goat1378:
Yeah T.W.R.P. is acting fussy! With the free rom update as well. I had to clean install my whole set up. But when trying to install fre3… T.W.R.P. Wouldn't install it. Thank god I keep both recoveries on my sd .Philz save me some un-needed self inflicted drama.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:
Im on fre3 4.4.4 rom flashed theme everything got themed except status bar icons i didnt wipe anything before or after flash would that cause it to be unthemed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Goat1378:
No your good… they are not themed well for me atleast some things are like volume mute, bluetooth are themed but my 4g and a few others are just stock white. Which at first I was lil like ???what??? but now I kinda like it with my current set up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:
And also 3minit wont flash says unable to open zip i thought it might be that i didnt have apk installed first or bad download so i i got to apk done and im dloading again to give it another go ill post back results amd thanks for the response btw

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
You can change the mms background and bubbles in mms settings.. I will try to get a mod for the phone..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
Stopped theming all the statusbar icons cuz i would get requests for the stock icons.. But it shouldn't take long to do amod.. What icons do you want themed.?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
Try downloading again from a diff browser.. Btw, the settings apk is in the zip as well, so you don't need to install it first.. [emoji4]
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
I've only used TWRP, if you are using 2810 try going back to 2800, or 2710.. PHILZ is good too.. I keep his on my sd, as well as a few diff TWRP version zips, and img. I use Flashify from Gplay to fish the img.... I flashed fre3, 4.4.4, my theme, and all the tests and mods with TWRP.. I think i used 2710,or 2800
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
Did you do a very clean very thorough wipe and install of the rom.. Dam, i wish i could remember which one of the TWRP versions i used. I know it wasn't the latest.. I heard it gave people on other carriers problems, so i never flashed it..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:
Yup very clean i took 4.4.4 via kies cause i lost my efs folder than i rooted with cf oneclick than i flashed latest twrp with odin made backup in twrp, did factory reset wiped all but storage rebooted recovery than flashed rom booted back up than flashed theme

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
Glad you got it.. Sometimes the sd is the last thing we think of but they go bad.. I just bought a new one myself.. At best buy, they had the best pixar 64g they sell on sale for 34.99.. It was originally 199.00.. I couldn't believe they took that much off the price.. I just got it last week, they may still have some .. Thank you for posting every step, it may help someone else.. Thank you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
Yes, once you Use Odin to install recovery, a simple flash of SuperSU zip or a rooted rom will give you Root.. Some people don't realize its that simple and some just like the auto root.. Either way, we are rooted and ready to flash something good.. Lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:
Manny thanks to all here i finnaly have it all 3minit bat fast rom before i had to flash s4 verizon systemui just to get 3minit to stick wich in return cause my recents to fc on home hold button but not anymore:D

Would 4.4.2 themes work on 4.4.4 i miss my signal icons being themed i preffer not to use xposed as much as possible i like user themed look of status bar icons . I wish i knew how to do all this ,change the wifi icon, signal icon,4g lte icon,silent state icon i would make all those custom :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
They may, but I'll try to get us something this week..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:
Ok thanks , oh and one more thing if its no trouble how do i go with bootanimation .zip instead of qmg i got nice bootani from 4.4.2 that i would like to use i gotall the files just dont know how to make it work i troed standard cp way but that didnt work
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
I know at one time we could just add the boot ani zip and the disharmony would use it.. You would need to take the qmg out of course.. But I'm not sure with 4.4.4.. I'm sure there is a thread here at XDA that can help.. let us know when you find out..ty

Carrier problems? Do you remember where you saw that by any chance. I'd like to read up on that. Was that in the fre3 thread?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:
Ok i did some digging and im glad i didnt bite of more than i can chew i would have to convert .zip to qmg and loop.qmg and i found tut on how to and hit dead end at the very start . Suposedly you use samsung theme creator and you put imgs in there bla bla and max you can add is 255 i got 300 to add to convert it lol . If anyone else got some free time and knows how to do this kinds of stuff i will pay you im not sure what the going rate is for bootanimations lol i think 10$ sounds good start:D

---------- Post added at 02:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:38 AM ----------

I dont understand why they keep switching stuff around , one firmware would have zip ,next qmg i mean c'mon really?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Goat1378:
For the Fre3 4.4.4 changing boot animation… Go into System/media and move bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg also the files that have sprboot mini something I can't remember but basicly all the boot files at the bottom and replace them with the new boot files so it look like the 1st screenshot below. The shutdown.qmg is for shut down animation Just have a backup on hand just incase

Also if you wish to change the boot sound follow the directary in the 2nd shot and replace the sound in that file
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:
Thats the thing my bootanimation is zip file and it has its own bin file too you would have to convert part1 and part0 all the imgs from those folders to qmg and loop.qmg and than rename it to match the existing ones wich i dont know how to do thats why i wanted to make it rain if someone can do it for me lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Goat1378:
Im not sure on how to do that but The guy in the link below has alot and is into making boot animations so if anyone could answer that question im sure he can. Good luck. I hope it works out for you. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2677522

Could you, like, make more themed apps and stuff?

The new Tapatalk is great, but where are all of the other apps that you've not yet themed?

Get off of your idle hindquarters and whip something up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
What exactly is your issues?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Goat1378:
Boot up sound or screen on/off sound?

Screen on/off sound files can be found in root file manager under system/media/audio/ui (lock.ogg/unlock.ogg)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:
I get 2 sounds on bootup one during boot and one when in lockscreen right after the boot and the sound that plays after the boot is not even in any of the audio folders

---------- Post added at 05:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:00 PM ----------

I tried soft reset method i saw on forum somewhere take out battery hold power button down for 20 sec that didnt fix it

---------- Post added at 05:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:01 PM ----------

I have an app called plugin sound wich plays the sound when connecting charger and disconnecting and it gives you option to pick each sound and that wirks as it should power on .ogg plays as it should and than there is the boring stock ringtone sound
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Goat1378:
Boot sound are in spr folder circled 2 pages back that I posted lastnight for boot animation sounds they also in system/media/audio/ui (poweron.ogg/poweroff.ogg) you can also change your menu, back and touch sounds if you like check this out if your interested. http://xdaforums.com/note-3-sprint/general/custom-screen-lock-unlock-sounds-t2845313
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:
All that is set right poweron.ogg and poweroff.ogg i habe no problem with those i got issue with 2 sounds on power on one during boot wich is normal and second one after boot while loclscreen showing .I unlock the screen and i have to tap volume up and down and up again to turn it off othervise it will keep looping till battery dies.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
Let's back track. You said you installed an app that can change the plug /unplug tones, will that app change other tones as well?. It could be changing something else that your not aware of.. I ask that because you shouldnt have the issue with a tone continuing and using up your battery.. Try clearing cache and data within that app you installed, then Un install it and reboot.. See if the problem is still there. Also did you change any system sounds.. A lot of ringtones just loop.. They will not stop playing until you answer the phone call.. Using one of these tones for mms or another sound will cause it to never stop.. Only use mms or tones meant for notifications other than ringtones.. Or you can dl a number of apps from gplay that allow you to set the tone duration in seconds of you want to use a ringtone for another apps notification.. Or you can make a ringtone work for other apps and system sounds by using an audio manipulation program.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bigbabo:
Update... Its fixed i downloaded silence.wav 2 sec long clip of silence and i renamed it to Hooray.ogg put it in notifications folder [MENTION=678353]SysteM[/MENTION]/media/audio used that app to select unplug sound to be that clip rebooted and voila.

Maybe the almighty themer cerj can assist me with some attempt at my own theming. How do I batch change a color on a bunch of images at once? It is taking me forever to edit the accuweather apk cause I'm doing one image at a time using gimp. There are a million images in there.

No problem.. Although I have both, I use Gimp more. It's what I started on and I can fly with it.. I realy need to spend more time with Photoshop.. Photo shop is the better program, but for what we do I get on just fine with gimp for almost everything..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] almony8:
So you would do one image at a time in gimp also? I'm in the accuweather apk file and there are a ton of images and some of them appear to be the same image with a different file name. Can I edit the colors of one image and then copy it and rename it to the other images name if they are the same image or will that mess things all up?

Sent from my SM-N900P using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
Yes.. Make sure to resize it if needed... I haven't edited anything that required me to change colors in numerous images in a while.. When I first started I did with battery images.. I used gimp, and did all 203 images one by one.. I don't suggest doing it, but it was good practice for a beginner.. Repetition burns it in deep.. But yes, I just did the Google weather app for my CM theme.. Its has two sets of the same 10 or 12 images.. I just resized the first ones I made for the second set..

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] almony8:
Edit: I think I figured it out, I just had to scale the image instead of resize it, is that correct?

Any chance you can guide me on how to properly resize the images with gimp? I tried to resize an image to 351x351 and it only resized the border of the image and then made the actual image really small. Any tips you have for me?

Yes, but I think I got it. I'm just going in and scaling the image to the appropriate size and then exporting it to the new file name. Does that sound right? I still need to play with the batch editing, haven't made it that far yet

Sent from my SM-N900P using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
Yes. . Scale the whole thing up or down and change the name.. When you in gimp choose the original image..Scale the whole thing, then tap "file" ( top left ). Click Export as, Make sure it will export to the same folder your working in, then copy the new name and paste it in the export image popup where is highlighted, then tap export. At bottom right

Do I have to do anything special when decompiling or recompiling if I'm editing png files? I finally have the accuweather edited but I can't get it to recompile now. I had no issues recompiling the SwiftKey apk?

Sent from my SM-N900P using Xparent Skyblue Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] cerj:
Do this.. rename your edited accu folder, then decompile the accu apk again.. you can just put MY in front before accu in the name. Then with the stock accu decompiled, try to compile out with no edits.. I do this on apks a bunch. . Sometimes stock won't compile.. That way you know of it's something you did or not.. if the stock compiles, then you need to look at your edited one for what's wrong.. It will tell you in the command prompt , after trying to compile it.. Mahe site you are using the correct apktool, aapt, and have the framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk installed to your apktool folder.

Edit.. Did you edit the 9pngs if so they could be the issue. . If so, replace them with the stock nines, see if it compiles
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] almony8:
I'll try again later, at work now. I don't think I edited any 9pngs cause I'm not really sure how lol.
