As the title says, I'm just curious if doing the official update will decrease the amount of heat the phone produces. Has anyone noticed a difference? I'm worried the camera lenses might crack. I just picked up the m9 yesterday so I can jump ship within 2 weeks.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
Yes out of the box the phone Requires at least one update, for Camera fix and correct throttling to occur. Some may have the latest firmware out of the box, but if theirs an update available Take It !

FAQ

Q: How was all the light PNGs made?

A: Just inverted the PNGs with Pixlr Editor http://apps.pixlr.com/editor/.

Q: Can I use this as base for my own dark theme?

A: Yes, if you figure out how to set the edittext-color independent of PrimaryTextColor and create fully black-themed calendar.

Q: Will you make it for LP too?

A: Yes, as soon as I upgrade my Z1C to LP, and that happens when SONY fixes theme engine permissions.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Pandemic:
Wow i like this one and i hope the LP coming soon :)

Can you help me ? I got this bug when installed this theme

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] hakansonn:
I have same bug also, love the black ui so much but facing this bug in xperia home

Its works normal with google launcher

i have exiztenz rom installed fully deodexed and superuser mod enabled.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Emperor.dk:
LOL, sorry for that awsome looking clock.

Didn't theme the Xperia Home or clockwidgets, but i guess they both get some text formats from framework-res. I'll see if get the time to do some theming for the two apps just to bypass-back to original text formats.

Thanks for feedback
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] rizkydztar:
No sir i mean the "xperia home" in homescreen is the bug, i already try with default home still same, nothing problem in the clockwidget
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] lapuckire:
Thanks a lot, I'm glad there are still devs who care about KK :). Little bug I found: if you slide brightness control to very left or right, it lies partially under other elements.

If you could add other accent colors, it would be great but I understand it takes time.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] C.Eduardo:
Very nice theme. But have a bug it using keyboard after reboot device. Using xperia z1.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Emperor.dk:
Thanks for feed back

Can you explain the bug and/or take a screenshoot?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] C.Eduardo:
the images explain by itself. But I'll explain to stay clear. In fact you do not need to restart the device, just the keyboard app is closed and started again and give the keyboard application uses the entire screen space.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Emperor.dk:
saw this once too. Clear data (not user data) in cwm will fix it.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] DomusX10:
Hi, I've installed the theme v2 on my Xperia Z1C with rooted stock KK 4.4 but settings, phone, etc...still with white backgroud.

Why? I like black background...please help me...this is the first time I see a theme that is full black!!
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Emperor.dk:
We have same model and firmware.. so i really do not understand why.

I will try to make a workaround for the themed styres, that fixes firmware compatibility :fingers-crossed:

This should also fix the strange keyboard-bug and PDI-bugs.

When we get one for Lollipop ?

I like thos one :)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] C.Eduardo:
I installed the version 4 and found only problem in 3 places.

The first is in the phone/contacts applications, when you try to search for a contact the dialog box is white and the font color is also white.

The second is that I use the default browser application of sony and there at the top where is the website address is with black background and black font.

The third is on youtube settings that the font color is white on white background, but that you already know.

I put four pictures, two with the normal theme and two with your theme showing the difference.

In other applications the dialog box usually appears with a gray background with black font.

About browser, this is the topic that I caught him.

Bootet to CWM and then flashed RockZ1L Kernel and SuperSU

Next just need to activate Superuser mod

What a lovely day

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Emperor.dk:
SONY has crippled their LP firmware, it's impossible to theme anything but nav buttons and some colors.

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] charliebigpot:
Errrrr, I downloaded and applied the latest theme and now I only get bootloops..

What can I do?
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Emperor.dk:
Try reboot to CWM, wipe cache backup and wipe dalvik cache.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] charliebigpot:
It optimises the applications (all 325 of them) but then it reboots and reboots and reboots.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] C.Eduardo:
which device you have and what version of android ???

---------- Post added at 09:13 ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 ----------

This bug still happens to me, even in the v8 version.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] charliebigpot:
sony z3c, kitkat. The very first version of the theme worked very well!
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Emperor.dk:
did you install v8 while earlier version active theme?

I have had FC and bootloop my self when doing so. but it was always solved by clearing data.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] charliebigpot:
nope, no earlier version was active when I installed v7!

EDIT - can it have something to do with the fact that the rom wasn't deodexed? (While reflashing everything yday it came to me that I didn't do any modifications to the rom last time I flashed it)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Emperor.dk:
my own is totally stock rom too.

only root and superuser mod (patched services.jar)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] charliebigpot:
weird, then I don't know. To be on the safe side I also flashed the xposed disabler zip, but it didn't help.

It seems related to the theme, but don't worry, it was about time to wipe and flash something new ;)
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] slutman:
Hello,

I wanted to install your theme(V8) on my Z3 Compact KitKat version (23.0.1.A.5.77)

But i get bootloop. I tried to wipe cache and dalvik cache like you said a few post before, but doesn't change anything.

Do you have any idea what may coz it/solve it ?

Thank you in advance

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Emperor.dk:
For themes to work on unrooted, devices, we need the official sign keys from SONY (used til sign an APK). Without this, the theme will not work. Only wallpaper and lockscreen will be set.

We need to patch the file "services.jar", to get the theme-engine to accept our own themes. This patch is also called "superuser mod".

The file "services.jar" is placed in the system folder. And we need root to replace a file there.

hmm weird i remember you was on Lollipop but you downgrade it i read some pages ago, why that ? you was on LP :p

Maybe it's due that my rom is hardly debloated (or something missing) ? Even v7 doesn't work on my Xperia Z3 Compact :(

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] android404:

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Emperor.dk:
I think i have located the bootloop reason. I have done some theming of XMLs in drawables in framework-res.apk.

It seames that these are not built the same way in Z1 and Z3. I will do some more comparisons and find time to confirm it. I might have to remove theming of the XMLs and instead theme the PNGs. It's no big deal.

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] DorianX:
Sad news [emoji20] I downgraded my Z1 to KK cuz I don't like how LP runs on my device (to much overhearing, to much redraws on launcher, memory leaks, battery drain, etc.) can I easily fix your theme (for me) by decompiling the apk, change some values/png's and re-compiling? I have some experience on theming android but not for Xperia theme engine (and I don't do it since JB 4.1 but I think is almost the same).
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] DomusX10:
BEST THEME EVER :highfive:

Just install on my KK Stock with SuperUserMOD, works well. So great. Wonderful. This is what I looking for months...

The only bugs I notice are:

- that on email app, affect the new unread messages that are white on light grey (Unreadable, but after touch on it, read message are displayed correctyl white on black)

- On google chrome, favorites are displayed light grey on white and so, in some case, unreadable.

T H A N K S for all your time spent on this...and if you reach to do this on LP, will be even more great (For now I'm stay on KK because love my battery , but on future....)

Great Great job. :good::good::good::good::good:

yes, you are free to edit and improve and change any of my works, but I don't know it It's easy. I'll try and answer any questions.

but in any case, theme goes well..and I love my black Z1 Compact...if you reach these results with LP version....you're myth! :highfive:

Thanks for all your effort!!!

UPDATE: I have done screenshots of the visual bugs: these are (see attachment):

5,6) On email (unread email / new email)

2) On google chrome favorites

3,4) Dialer pad don't totally collpse when pressing down arrow

1) Some menu, like that on keyboard settings, don't show correctly (black o black)

This is a real good theme, much more of a simple "Xperia Themes"...this is a complete revision in black of UI on KK (I love it so so much!!! )

...so, I think that fix this bugs made it perfect.

Thanks in advance.

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] Emperor.dk:
The Mail app is not themed at all, just like YouTube and Chrome. But both apps uses android: primarytextcolor. And I have sat that text color to White.

Setting it to grey will fix it, but leaves the theme a Little strange in other matters. I will make a test-build and send link to you for testing soon (I can not test my self, as I'm now on Lollipop).

I know about the dailer not colapsing fully, I can't find the reason for that.

:good:
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] DomusX10:
Okay....about Email,Chrome and other with primaryTextColor problem...It could solve (as a suggestion) rather than change the color of the primary text, change the color of the text highlight? Such as making "blue"? That's the new mails have a light blue background with white text (as in the original white theme) ..:fingers-crossed:

About dialer, no problem...is just for signaling artifacts...to make it perfect (not so far be in my opinion)
