Thank you for the info. I'll change what you said and see what happens. I know it can be done correctly somehow because I have a CM12 verison of this theme where the slider background shows up everywhere. I'd still like to know why it shows up under the wifi options and not everywhere else.

I just realized my divider bars are not showing up either. That one never caught my eye until I loaded up a CM12 based ROM on my phone and they were there. I've got to compare the two themes' xml files and see if I can figure out what's going on. I want those divider bars back as well.

Just pushed an update to github for the wrapper. If layers manager wasnt installed by the user it crashed, so ive now added an if statement to check for it and auto launch the PS to layers manager if its not. Its now root free, light and works well. So no more updates (i promise lol).

Use parcel from play store. It worked on lollipop before tibu was updated and I haven't looked back. Or you can delete it from system/app and reboot.

Taking a break from code today and I will finish part 2 of the tutorial. As for layouts, that's what I have been busy doing, I have been freeing up all the hard coded resources, once that is done I will push the code for the rom devs to merge or cherry pick making layers the most complete and easy way to theme your device. Keep in mind layers is not just for themes.

I was able to patch a bug in a rom with just a 15kb overlay

Just a reminder guys. Dont bother posting bug reports

Okay people I know you're all excited about layers and want to try it out and get everything working but remember this is still in BETA and so are the themes made for it.

There's no point in making posts saying this is not themed that is not themed. The themers are aware of things that are not themed and the main reason is cause your ROM probably doesn't have the Exposed resources commits since they were released some hours ago also the themers would have to update their themes accordingly so please give them some time I'm sure nobody is going to disappoint anyone.

Yeah, it gives you more flexibility and it also just overlays the original app...saves a TON of space compared to CM themes.
[Android Themes] 93fuelslut:
So it also themes apps like a cm theme or flashing a themed app version ?

I'm still on KK so I was wondering

sent from your moms phone
[Android Themes] jwhyte:
It themes like a theme changer so you can try then all with no hassle. Unlike cm12 themes each part of the theme has it's own apk so you can mix and match or use them all. Some themes have layers for play music messenger velvet play store keyboard and of course settings system ui dialer ect.
[Android Themes] jerbeck24:
You use an app called Layers on the PlayStore and you flash zip files created by themes (such as myself). It'll apply apk overlay files for themes you choose or you can choose the whole theme. It'll overlay a theme of your choice and it is as simple as applying them and rebooting. Then when you change your mind, you can delete them (and reboot) to go back to stock, or you can choose another theme to apply!

[Android Themes] flyinjoe13:
I'm confused again. I'm trying to do my first layer with all custom colors (my first practice attempt I just used the stock teal color and changed the background colors) and i've got a bit of a problem that I can't solve. On a few of the Settings options, I can't seem to get the correct button toggle color. It is still showing the old green toggle color instead of the blue. I attached two pictures so that it would make sense. The one is the Sounds\Notifications options and it has the correct button color (blue). The second is the Developer options and it is incorrect (still shows the light green button). There are other settings options that also have the same incorrect color so I know it's probably one simple change I need to make somewhere, but I can't find it. I'm not sure if that light green button color is an image or a color code in an .xml file somewhere. All I know is I can't find it.

Anyone know where I should be looking?

Thanks....

[Android Themes] AnkeshReborn:
I am on xenon HD ROM on my nexus 7 2913 flo,I am late to the layer theme engine party, so I am so boobish at thus point of time.

On Layers app I installed outer space first and then rebooted and then I selected PS Navigation buttons and rebooted but the Burton theme didn't worked,though outer space theme was working.

I think I have to extract outer space zip and then out the put the apk of PSNav buttons and rezip and apply,I am trying it now,will edit if it works.

And can I know how to set priorities?

I am on a limited 2G data plan,so I regret that I won't be able to watch videos,and by reading threads I find it so complicated and confusing.

Thanks for the humble reply :).

Hoping for an answer.

Will ask,

Looks like o am fine for just installing 1 theme,can we merge two theme layers?

Like playstore from other theme and rest from others and zip it and install?

Would work?
[Android Themes] danarama:
It won't make any difference. Installing 2 zips is exactly the same as installing 1 zip. The problem is the individual apk and most likely the priority of the Nav bar is too low versus outer space

Hi

I'm little bit confused, I tried to install Blackish, but I couldn't. There was an apk version 2.2. Installed the apk, open install the layer.

Reboot and nothing.

What I'm missing?

How to install layers with apk?

And google couldn't help me, maybe my question i s wrong
[Android Themes] danarama:
When you say you installed the apk, please describe that in more detail
[Android Themes] everlethal:
There is an apk file. 8.1 MB. Installed the apk file like normal apk. There was a new icon in my app drawer. Open this app, after that manager app was open also. And after that I did like it's zip theme.

So what is the process of installation or this apk is something different?
[Android Themes] danarama:
If you got the apk from play store, I'm not sure - that process is new to me.

If however you downloaded the apk from another source, the idea is you don't install the apk. You apply it via the layer manager app. Probably best to ask in the blackish thread or on g+
[Android Themes] jerbeck24:
You download the apk and it is the theme installer. Install the apk and it'll place a zip file on the /sdcard. It should open the layers manager app and then apply the zip that was placed on the /sdcard. Make sure you have the layers manager app installed...

How this helps...

Ok new app update is on PS no more confusion. Sorry about that guys
[Android Themes] kantjer:
I have made an app using Tasker to generate a backup and restore script for your layer.apk's so they will survive a dirty flash.

The app reads all apk's in vendor/overlay, generates the "backup & restore" script and copies it to system/addon.d and sets permissions.

The app is standalone so it can be used by non-Tasker users.

Remove any existing layer backup scripts from system/addon.d

After running the app you should have the "70-layers.sh script" with all your currently in use layer apk's in the system/addon.d folder.

Download

EDIT: v1.1 app now checks is any apk files are present in vendor/overlay, if not it will give a toast message and stops.

EDIT: v1.2 the app now terminates the "monitor service" at the end of the task
[Android Themes] danarama:
Fantastic, thank you.
[Android Themes] yaatzek:

[Android Themes] kantjer:
It will only prevent the phone from sleeping while the app is running. That should be only a few seconds.

You're not supposed to flash the layer zips you download in recovery. You pick the zip in the app, or do you mean something else?
