Tiny update to fix text in Hangouts in the navigation drawer! Updated to 3.0.1!!!﻿
[Android Themes] tcat007:
Thanks. I think I am having an issue with what names to change in the manifest.xml. The one in the master is much larger than the one from the project I am changing. Here's my project manifest:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?>

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="DarkerRed_tcat-kantjer_adiutor_layer" platformBuildVersionCode="21" platformBuildVersionName="5.0.1-1624448">

<overlay android:priority="100" android:targetPackage="com.grarak.kerneladiutor"/>

<meta-data android:name="rom" android:value="Chroma"/>

<meta-data android:name="infoShort" android:value="KA"/>

<meta-data android:name="infoLong" android:value="This will apply overlay theme to Adiutor."/>

<meta-data android:name="author" android:value="USAN03"/>

</manifest>
[Android Themes] flyinjoe13:
That's one of the reasons I wanted to give these layers a try. There were always some compromises I had to make with CM themes trying to get the text colors right. I read somewhere that the layers method gives you better control over each app individually. I hope that is the case so I can fix some black on black and white on white problems I always had.

Now I just gotta teach myself all the stock app .xml files again. When I used to theme individual apps back in the day before theme engines, I used to kind of know what each .xml file referenced and how it affected the app itself. Now I can't even remember something as simple as what to edit to change the color of the overflow menu drop down box, but i'll find it eventually.

Updated my Black Electric Blue Theme to Version 3.0!

- Added a black electric blue google keyboard (dark and light)

- Added blue text to Inbox for notifications and in the mail list

- Added hamburger style navigation bar softkeys in all zip files (blue and stock)

- Fixed a few text issues in Hangouts

I made those changes, no luck. I just noticed there is no smali folder in my decompiled project, all the other layer apk's seem to have that. I started with the master at github: https://github.com/Grarak/KernelAdiutor, but ending up with no smali.

Also, where does the built apk go when you hit rebuild in Android Studio? I don't see anything, anywhere.

[Android Themes] danarama:
Sorry for the caps but STOP USING THE MASTER!

Please just do what I've suggests before. You only get smali when you decompile an apk. You do NOT need that in your project.

So again, stop using the master. Use layers project generator. Make it for any package then change the target package to the package you want to target in android manifest.

Then delete the res folder and take only the res folder from the app you will decompile and put it in the project..

It really shouldn't be as difficult as you're making it.

The apk goes in the "out" folder.

[Android Themes] flyinjoe13:
Two quick questions:

1.) When I am working on a layer and want to test the updated version, do I need to uninstall the old version first or can I install right on top of the old version since they have the same .apk name?

2.) Somewhere along the line, I made a change that screwed something up. Which app determines the colors for the status bar pulldown box when you get an incoming text? It's the one that says Read, Reply and something else. I used to have it a nice black box, white text combo. Now it is white on white. Unfortunately I made so many changes that i'm not sure which change impacted it. I really need to do things one at a time from now on.

EDIT: I think I may know the answer to the second one. I forgot to reinstall my SystemUI.apk layer so it's using the default white box. I'm guessing that's the one that caused the mistake.
[Android Themes] tcat007:
Yes, I'm just trying to change a couple colors in KAdiutor. I can do it as a whole app, but having issues making an overlay. Question for rootSU: I used LPG, and have a manifest line about an icon, but no mention of an icon in original manifest. I deleted the icon line and tried it. Installed layer and app icon (and app) disappeared. Uninstalled layer and app showed back up.
[Android Themes] danarama:
I'm not sure to be honest, hen I use LPG (Cool name by the way), I don't use the icon placeholder part.

Green Hex : #a8ff00

Dark BG = Background. Choose a dark shade of grey or a complementing shade of black. It's up to the themer to decide this as it should not hamper the basic viewing of text.
[Android Themes] flyinjoe13:
Does anyone know the color code that determines the color of the on/off toggle button slider background color in the settings menu options? Specifically, I need the one for when it is set to Off.

For example, under Sound and Notification, there's the 'Increasing ring volume' option with the on/off toggle button on the right and it has a slider bar behind it. When I have that turned on, my colors are correct and I can see the light button color and the darker slide bar background color I set. Problem is, when it is off, I can see the correct button color, but the slider bar background color must be set to my primary background color so it blends in and I an no longer see the slider bar. I need to change that color reference, but I can't figure out what determines that color.

Thanks for any help...

[Android Themes] randman2011:
Priorities

I'm very new to Layers so I'm assuming that there's something that I'm not understanding, but I started with jerbeck24's BlackNeonOrange theme and I'm changing some stuff around to better suit my liking. I messed with SystemUI yesterday and everything was great, but I modified his PitchBlack google keyboard to make it orange and when I added that it reverted the changes to SystemUI and combined it with Stefano Trevisani's Simplenavbar. I'm guessing it might have something to do with priority, since they were both set by default to 60 and I didn't change that, but I was under the assumption that there wouldn't be any conflicts using the same priority if there wasn't any overlap in what they theme.

-edit-

Removing the keyboard overlay brings the systemui layer back, so there's definitely a conflict. I'm assuming that means that I need to change the priority of one of them, but should I make the keyboard higher or lower than systemui. I'm thinking higher.
[Android Themes] acultr:
no.
[Android Themes] lovejoy777:
Where does it error. On dl or install?
[Android Themes] danarama:
Error 504 means you have something installed requesting the same permissions. Run logcat during the install and it will tell you which package conflicts.
[Android Themes] acultr:
I have uninstalled the old version.

I would like install the new one from the playstore.
[Android Themes] randman2011:
Alright. I'm lost. Neither higher nor lower priority allows me to have SystemUI and Google Keyboard layers at the same time, but using the unmodified Pitch Black keyboard at priority 60 works just fine. The only things I changed in the keyboard overlay are the author, package, and apk names (via the Project Generator) and the colors.xml. What am I doing wrong?
[Android Themes] danarama:
Read my post again and do what I suggested if you want to solve it.

---------- Post added at 08:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:38 PM ----------

You've definitely changed the package name in both to be different from each other and every other layer?
[Android Themes] randman2011:
I did that as you were typing that. I've just been using the default package name that I created for an Android class because I didn't know that they all needed to be different. I've made tons of overlays but prior to this point I've never had more than one installed at a time. That fixed the problem, so I'll go back through all of my overlays and change the package name to something more useful.
[Android Themes] danarama:
Yep, make each one unique.

Just wondering if anyone has ever messed with the letter_tile_colors and letter_tile_colors_dark lines in the arrays.xml file. I've always hated the random contact color icons in lollipop and was looking around the contacts app to see if I could figure out how they were generated. I saw these two array names and they seem to use the same color codes as the contact icons. I also saw these same set of lines in the arrays.xml file for the Mms app and the Dialer app, both of which have contact lists as well. I was thinking if I changed all of these to the same color or just a couple of colors that fit my overall theme color that my contact icons might not be random anymore.

Has anyone ever changed these? Is my thinking correct that they determine the contact icon colors? Or are the contact icon colors determined by something else?

EDIT: Turns out that is it. I just changed those lines and now all my contact icons are the same color. I know it sounds stupid, but that makes me so happy. I really did hate that random contact icon color scheme.

So I tried layer at its infant stage and wasn't impressed when compared to CM's engine. Now I know nothing of themes but have heard that Layers is the way to go and it looks likes my ROM of choice has made the switch to Layers. But before I wipe and make the switch I need to have a theme ready. Can anyone reccomend a theme that is dark and red or transparent and red that has Hangouts and Google Now fully themed? Could also be a purple and possibly a green. I just cannot stand any white with black text. Bleh! Thanks.

[MENTION=2872010]rootSU[/MENTION] I have an icon request for your magnificent Material Settings icons layer. I'm doing SlimLP builds with V4A in Settings -> Interface and it would be supercool to have the icon themed with the rest of settings icons with your layer. I realize it's just a personal build so no biggie if you don't have time/energy for it but just incase you do, here's my Settings.apk. There are actually 3 icons (3 different sizes) with the same name in res/drawable , res/drawable-mdpi-v4 and res/drawable-xhdpi-v4. All are called ic_liquid_equalizer.png but as mentioned are different sizes. I'm not exactly sure which icon the Settings entry uses...

I renamed each .png to reflect the size and attached them here for easier access so you don't need to dig in.
[Android Themes] danarama:
Thanks. I can have a look tonight. I don't mind doing requests.

However, please be aware that most roms use ic_settings_viper.png

Viper is already themed in my theme however, I think the icon is a bit crappy. Yours is much better.
[Android Themes] :
Thanks a lot. I'll change the name in my build to the one that other roms are also using i.e. ic_settings_viper.png - thanks for that. So please use ic_settings_viper.png instead of ic_liquid_equalizer.png if you get around to it :)

Oh and feel free to use the icons I made in any builds you are making (or are you even building atm?). It is the official V4A icon just smaller and with material teal color without the background so I don't take any credit. Unless resizing and recoloring in Gimp is considered creditworthy :D

Did you also tried to remove the settings divider? It's because the switch track tint is pointing to color foreground.

You can adjust it by adding this to settings styles but this will also reveal the settings divider.

<style name="Theme.SettingsBase" parent="@android:style/Theme.Material">
<item name="android:colorForeground">#ff303030</item>
</style>

Currently we cannot individually change the list divider material for the tint unless change the whole color foreground (@color/bright_foreground_material_dark).
