[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ritchea:
I'm a bit (more than a bit, really) OCD. I've owned over a dozen devices but never experienced this so I also assume a defect. I just needed to know if this is a possible defect that is known-especially when trying to get service.

EDIT: As this thread had had over 200 views, I'm throwing more info out there to see if anyone has any further insight.

I factory reset the tab --all stock except for relocking it. Darn if the spot didn;t seem to disappear. Then it returned. At that point, I decided to revisit the back. Hmmm. There is a little give in it--not spongy, but when I applied some pressure, I heard a sound in the middle of the tab like adhesive reattaching. (I've looked at the teardown and know that a lot of tape exists but not from the back cover to the rest of the tab.) I looked at the white screen, and again, the cloud was gone. In a few minutes, it reappeared. So, I firmly rubbed the mid-back and the cloud disappeared. I've now tried it over a dozen times (after restoring my nandroid), and applying firm pressure to the back always, but temporarily, removes the cloudy area. Can someone say what's most likely causing this? (I know it's faulty hardware, but I mean, what is happening to the screen when I apply pressure? Maybe a bubble in a layer somewhere?

Because of the camera, I don't want to get into taking the back off. I chatted with HTC to make sure my Amazon warehouse tablet was covered, and was told that it is even though (from the CSR) Amazon is not an official HTC retailer.

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Krustnesis:
Hi.

I'm writing this guide, because not everyone knows how this Theme Creator from SOONY (Lollipop will be soon) works.

Firstly, download jar file from:

https://developer.sony.com/develop/smartphones-and-tablets/theme-creator/

As we know, u have to have a Photoshop CS6 as minimal requirement.

BUT Adobe give us a 30 day test version (only for home use) for free.

Just register and download tool:

https://creative.adobe.com/products/download/photoshop

In Theme creator we can work with GIMP.

Download the latest version from official site for free.

When you will run theme creator and select new theme,

in destination folder you will have "templates".

-Open one by one with Photoshop CC:

View attachment 3199989

-ucheck layers named " hide me":

View attachment 3199990

-Select "File", " Save for web":

View attachment 3199991

-don't change anything and click Save:

View attachment 3199992

-select destination folder in your theme folder and export it:

View attachment 3199993

This is everything where we need Photoshop.

Now u can edit file by file in theme creator using gimp:

View attachment 3199994

-set gimp in advanced settings of image processing:

View attachment 3199980View attachment 3199988

BUT: If you have weak computer, i've already uploaded package with all files, so all you need is:

-download RESOURCES.rar package,

-unrar it to theme folder,

-no need for photoshop, u can start with editing files one by one in theme creator using GIMP.

\/ RESOURCES.rar \/

http://www26.zippyshare.com/v/4sk6T8tX/file.html

TUTORIAL FOR THOSE WHO USING MY RESOURCES:

1. Download my RESOURCES.rar from the link.

2. Unpack it to directory you want to.

3. Open Theme Creator Beta and Create New project, with complete resources:

View attachment 3203914

4. Open selected in creating new project destination folder and copy all folders from unpacked RESOURCES.rar to theme folder.:

View attachment 3203915

5. Select png with theme creator you want to edit. You can choose with different resolutions (Description: http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html):

View attachment 3203916

6. Click "Edit using external tool". For this time, it will be GIMP.

7. Edit your png as you want.

8. When You are done, press File >> Replace file_name.png.

View attachment 3203917

9. Now You can take a look at Theme Creator to see changes.

View attachment 3203918

ATTENTION:

-Never save image file from GIMP in theme folder in .xcf format.

-If you want to save your files with history of editing, select another folder far away from Theme folder. :P

ATTENTION 2:

-If you will see BIG RED CROSS, then take a look at picture size (px). must be same as original file.

-If you will see BIG RED CROSS and edited file was .9.png, check for absolutely black 1px borders (tutorial for 9.png can be found on xda.)

-If you will see BIG RED CROSS, take a look at theme folders and delete ALL .xcf files...

That's all.

For any question write in comments.

If u like it, click Thanks button.

Greets, Krustnesis.

Hello. Maybe you can tell why I can't change only navbar buttons but everything else can? Xperia E3...
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Krustnesis:
Just try my Dragon Age Inquisition theme for non rooted devices and reply if navbar buttons changed :)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] ivoda:
Unfortunately, still no change. Even colors in settings, msgs, buttons also... :(
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Krustnesis:
Which version of android do u have? (build)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] ivoda:
4.4.2; Version No 18.4.C.2.12 There are some themes from Google Play, like TriFlat, that changes everything. I can't do it with Theme Creator...
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] ~Unify~:
Update your phone to 4.4.4, then you able to change your nav bar icon. I also faced this prob when mine is 4.4.2. So update...N enjoy.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Krustnesis:
Resources

I've added exported images from templates, so u can download it, unpack to theme folder and start working without using Photoshop :)

Greets, Krustnesis
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] langeveld024:
In 4.4.2. Also possible. You just have to use superuser mod. Install xposed, install xperia xposed, enable superuser mod and reboot! Also for 4.4.4. Stock firmware.

[MENTION=5191783]Krustnesis[/MENTION] thank u for this quick guide bro! I was trying the day after the tool became available and had no luck. I will try soon again thanks to this guide! :D:thumbup:
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] ivoda:
Yeah, right... I can't root my phone cous bootloader unlocking status - no... :( And there's no 4.4.4 for D2203... But how could I make theme like TriFlat? So it is possible for 4.4.2 also.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] langeveld024:
Boot loader unlock is only needed for flashing custom kernel's. Rooting is possible with locked bootloader. Easiest way should be towelroot https://towelroot.com/
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Krustnesis:
Yes. But Theme Creator is developed by SOONY, and dedicated to non-rooted devices too.

I think that They will be updating their tool for complete customization :)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] ivoda:
I tried towelroot months ago, and no, my phone isn't supported. So nothing.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Krustnesis:
That's info from:

http://support.sonymobile.com/global-en/xperiae3/software/

Have no idea what the matters. I will try to download e3 software and take a look at framework.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] ivoda:
I have that sw already, and it's 4.4.2. Thanks for your attention.

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Arju:
[MENTION=5191783]Krustnesis[/MENTION] I'm having a hard time figuring out how to change navbar icons. When I open them up in an external edit program, it opens up in Gimp 2.8. Which is fine, then I try to replace with another icon, and then I press export too, and save it over the original. What happens next is that I get a red box with a blue X inside the box on the icon I changed which is not correct. In this case I tried to change the back key to lollipop triangle back key.

My question is, how do I do it using Gimp? Am I saving the file wrong?

BTW: I used the resources you posted.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Krustnesis:
I will come back to home and will add screens how to save the entire types of files for themer.

When you open any image file, check if it's not .9.png file.

If yes, then remember to add 1px border with black and "empty" pixels (tutorials on xda about .9.png files)

When exporting files, remember to save in theme folder ONLY theme pngs/jpgs, never save in this folder images in gimp format, because theme creator will take it as normal png and will show red X.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Arju:
Thank you! A small screens tutorial would be nice. I appreciate everything you do for us!
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Krustnesis:
First post changed. You can find tutorial over there for saving edited files with attentions. :)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Arju:
I'm getting an error when I'm trying to press build -> export Test APK using your resources. The error says: an error occurred while exporting the theme. Please restart the application and try again.

I've tried to restart and start fresh several times. I've even tried to build a test apk without doing any changes to you resources but still get the error. I've also tried 2 different computers and still no luck. Am I missing something? Can't figure out what's going on.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Krustnesis:
I had this error when the image size was bad, will take a look at this. Sorry for that.

[MENTION=1339445]Arju007[/MENTION]

Check, if you don't miss anything from tutorial. I've just exported .apk from resources without any problems.

Do you have latest JRE installed?

Try run theme creator as administrator.

Check this informations: https://developer.sony.com/develop/smartphones-and-tablets/theme-creator/get-started/
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Arju:
I've tried and still error today. How do you run theme creator as administrator? I don't get that option. Could someone else also try the resources and report back? strange though.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Krustnesis:
Try to create new theme without my resources. Change any color and try to export test apk.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Arju:
That works. I guess I'll see if I'll be able to get my hands on ps6.

I only use part of the rescource that is posted by OP. Such as SystemUI - NavBar and Components(1of4)ActionBars,Footer. You could start with those folders and then add folders by folders after what needs you have, that way you'll find out wich folder is causing your error. I haven't gone so far that I needed all rescources. Now I'm currently trying to work with themeing lollipop. So I'm not currently using theme creator beta as It's not fully optimized for lollipop,

[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
Click this link and make sure you only use the files labelled for the SGH-I537 US (AT&T) Active

Stay away from the international threads, a lot of their custom development won't work on your phone. The only "custom recovery" that won't brick your phone is SafeStrap and there isn't a huge selection of roms; the best choices right now are GoldenEye, Goldfinger, or Hyperdrive (if you like the touchwiz experience) and Pure Nexus if you prefer the AOSP look and feel
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Monster809:
THANK YOU

I just wanted to say thank you for your help.. everything work out well for me !!! NOW any room that you would recomend?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
Hyperdrive if you like touchwiz - Samsung's version of Android, how stock Samsung phones look but with more theming and customization, or

Pure Nexus if you like AOSP, so-called "vanilla" android, closest to how google makes android actually look (closest to the cyanogenmod look and feel). This rom (in both theming and overall experience) is based off of the Google Play Edition Galaxy S4.

Other than that there aren't many options. I would argue at the very least those are the two with the most support or ongoing development, although someone please correct me if I'm forgetting any others. Which of the two roms you choose I think really comes down to a fundamental personal preference: do you prefer Touchwiz or AOSP? Although again, someone chime in if you disagree with my assessment.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Monster809:
Im looking forward to install the Nexus room. I actually like more AOSP better than TouchWiz . Do i have to install the Google applications seperate or is already included on the room and SuperSU app?

Sorry to ask you many questions but your the only one helping me out and i appreciated your help!!:thumbup:
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
Good questions. You do not have to install the Google applications, they're included in the rom. You WILL however have to install SuperSU while installing the rom. Simply download UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip and flash it immediately after flashing the rom zip file (i.e. before you first boot up).

If you prefer AOSP over TouchWiz, definitely go with the Nexus rom. Just some notes, the first boot up will take a fairly long time, this is normal and just be patient. Actually it takes a while (I'd say up to a day or two) for the rom to really "settle in." And one noticeable bug that's easy to deal with: turn off Wi-Fi right before you either power off or reboot. If you don't do that, Wi-Fi will not work properly. Should you forget to do that, Wi-Fi can still be fixed with a hot reboot. So not a crippling bug, just something to keep track of. Other than that I can't think of anything, just good luck and make sure to always make backups before doing anything. It's always my pleasure to help whenever I can
