I'm actually experiencing the same issue. I posted about it in the domination thread and someone suggested uninstalling play store updates to hangouts

Installed 9.3 aroma hangouts file, applied domination donation overlay. And see the same exact white bar, the loading screen with the big hangouts icon is white, etc.

Uninstalling play store updates works and gets the theme to work right, but then not on latest hangouts and always showing 1 update needed.

Just food for thought
[Android Apps and Games] davidwilson83:
See that's the thing, it is the latest Hangouts. Look in your Settings - Apps - Hangouts and look at the version code. It will be 7.0.113317058 which is the latest version. Check the available update in the Play Store app and it will say that it's that version, and the date should be February 2nd.
[Android Apps and Games] minieod:
wonder why it won't show as "updated" on play store though...shrug.
[Android Apps and Games] davidwilson83:
I don't have an update available in the Play Store on my Nexus 6P. I tried it on Pure Nexus Layers and Pure Nexus CMTE and I'm currently on Dirty Unicorns and not one of them had the update available after flashing Theme Ready Hangouts.

Just as a matter of interest, what dpi do you use? I always use 480dpi.
[Android Apps and Games] rignfool:
That does not work thru a reboot...
[Android Apps and Games] alwaysbelieve1:
There's something funky obviously going on here and it's not as exact as we hoped. Now when you say "Themed Ready Hangouts" where do we download these theme ready apps from because I can't seem to figure that out. If it is posted somewhere then the instructions are unclear as there are a few of us having the same concern. I appreciate your help!
[Android Apps and Games] davidwilson83:
Sir the zips are linked in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd posts of this thread. You need to download the one you want, reboot into recovery and flash it. Once you reboot, if the app is not correctly themed then open up your Play Store. Search for the app which isn't themed correctly (in this case Hangouts) and when you find it, click on it. When you are in the Hangouts page on Play Store, look for a button that says UNINSTALL. If you see it, then click on it. Once the app has finished uninstalling, do a full reboot. That is all you need to do.

[Android Apps and Games] greyhd:
I actually have an update for hangouts after flashing the themeable file, but I just ignore it.
[Android Apps and Games] minieod:
Same boat here

Not sure what dpi the app is. I know my system is stock dpi (560?) But hangouts is whatever dpi comes automatically with the store
[Android Apps and Games] onestoploser:
I flashed the latest on my Nexus 6 and do not see an update. I run stock dpi 560.
[Android Apps and Games] alwaysbelieve1:
Ok I will look into that. So essentially every time an update for the app comes out you will need to updated so that we can have it themed correct? That seems like its a lot of work for you and we won't be able to update from the Play Store if that's the case correct? Just getting used to theming as I've never done this prior.

Also what do I do about the lock screen notifications being unreadable? When I pull it down for picking it doesn't even allow me to read it because all the font is black. Whenever the lock screen immediately gets a notification and is all black the only thing that I can see is the icon of the person. None of the text is readable at all.
[Android Apps and Games] nathanchance:
Yes, that is correct. It is a lot of work, that is why we are privileged to have them doing what they do.

That seems like a theme issue rather than an app issue, what are you using?
[Android Apps and Games] alwaysbelieve1:
Agreed! The theme, app, and ROM developers are amazingly generous people who get my full and total respect!

I am using Domination.

[Android Apps and Games] nathanchance:
Make sure you applied the framework at the very bottom, that should fix the black on black I believe (can't test since I am not on a Layers ROM).

I did that on day one of applying the theme a few days ago. It is not working. I have rebooted several times over the last few days and it still is the same.
[Android Apps and Games] nathanchance:
You may try removing all Layers, rebooting, apply all of them together, then rebooting a few more times.
[Android Apps and Games] Suicidal Chicken:
Hi guys, I'm running into a bizarre issue.

I'm using RRO themes, specifically CommuteUI and Evolve by SpaStef - and no matter what I try, google play music's search is white text on a white background.

What's odd, is that other users have black text on a white background.

As far as I'm aware, there's no theme ready PlayMusic - however, there was a server-side update in January to being the search into line with other Google Apps.

Other themes don't have this issue, but surely if it was an issue with the theme - then others would have it, no?
[Android Apps and Games] Fastrite:
I use commute & evolve with black primary, black BG, tinted icons, indigo accent, no title settings and have white text on black BG in gmusic search.

You could try those settings to see where the problem lay...

#whiteuimustdie
[Android Apps and Games] Suicidal Chicken:
I've tried all combinations, and they all have the same outcome. I honestly don't know what's causing it, I've even decompiled and inspected the APK.

However, if I install an older version of the play music app, then it's fine. I'm fairly sure it's due to the server side switch (which rolls out to a small percentage of people at a time,) from the update on the 6th of January IIRC.

Saying that, what version of Play Music are you on? What version of CommuteUI? Finally, what ROM are you using?

EDIT: Just tried your setup, and still no dice. The only theme which has worked is Magpie, but I can't get along with it lol...
[Android Apps and Games] Fastrite:
Music - 6.2.2317V.2583329 - 3 Feb

Commute - 7.0

Evolve - 4.2.2

On Pure Nexus & Cataclysm n6p & n5.

Does this line up with you?

#whiteuimustdie
[Android Apps and Games] Suicidal Chicken:
The only difference is my music is 6.3; I'm gonna downgrade and I'll report back.

EDIT: There's no version 6.2.2317V. 2583329, at least that I can see. Did you mean 6.3?
[Android Apps and Games] Fastrite:
Yeah. Sorry 6.3...

#whiteuimustdie
[Android Apps and Games] Suicidal Chicken:
Ahhh man, this is REALLY frustrating me - nobody is having this issue, and I've gone from Stock - Cataclysm - Pure Nexus and it remains.

SpaStef doesn't know the problem either - without sounding like a broken record, all I can think of is the server side updates as I do search for music a lot.
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
Music search uses white from framework hard coded so depending on the theme's fw value of white will depend on the colors.

Edit: Changed my white in fw to grey...see results
[Android Apps and Games] Fastrite:
Is it the only place you have this issue?

When did the issue start?

#whiteuimustdie
[Android Apps and Games] Suicidal Chicken:
That would make sense, how would I go about changing that without the theme creator? See my attachment.

EDIT: Just thinking, if that's the case - then surely those who are using CommuteUI would have the same issue...

This is the only app with the issue. It started in January, I believe around the update on the 6th.
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
Yep it's in the New update..something can be added to styles to make the text black. I have it grey somehow. I just added music myself so I'm leaning it still but I found the bg so thought I'd share that info.
[Android Apps and Games] Suicidal Chicken:
Top man. I'll try and investigate tomorrow, and I'll let SpaStef know, again. For now I'll just have to put up with it.

If you do find anything, would you be able to PM me with the findings?
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
I'll post here for all to see
[Android Apps and Games] Suicidal Chicken:
Forgot I can subscribe to a thread from the app, doh!

Anyway, thanks again for clarifying mate - good to know I'm not going mad.

Anyway, bedtime now - goodnight and take it easy.
[Android Apps and Games] Fastrite:
Think I'm missing something here...

Is there a new gmusic version that causes this?

This is what I have on 6.3...

#whiteuimustdie
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
Looks like someone used a shortcut to make the black bg and is breaking it in result.

#whiteuimustdie #themesmatter
[Android Apps and Games] Train88:
Just to clarify... Google music doesn't use framework white, it uses play_white. Either way, its hard coded in the app. I thought about making a Theme Ready Play Music, but with the way Google has the sig checks (and the kinda instructions needed to get my TBO version to work), it would be a waste of time

Edit: uses play_white for the search I mean
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
Oh Damn you're correct of course lol
[Android Apps and Games] Train88:
[emoji4] I've spent too much time in that and YouTube lol
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
BTW youtube updated again. lmao. what's it been 18 months of a solid bi weekly update to YT? they still hiding tabs and progress in a new smali for you on every update?

Hail ?
[Android Apps and Games] Train88:
Tabs are easier, and not in smali... Progress bar however still is. At least they moved it from random letters to a named file that makes sense lol
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
Well I got it looking usable without being blinding lol
[Android Apps and Games] Suicidal Chicken:
So, what would you suggest be done?
[Android Apps and Games] Train88:
I suggest using a neutral color for play_white BC it's used as text as well
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
the play store in the zips has the no update mod implemented to stop it from updating itself? I just wanted to make sure, thanks.

Hail ?
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
No I removed it because it was blocking notifications of app updates.
[Android Apps and Games] mikebeatrice:
That feature hasn't reliably worked in ages.... at least since ICS. It'll work for anywhere from a few hours to a day, but it always pops back in. Something with one of the Google play services updates caused this annoying problem.

If you do a few Google searches, I'm sure you could pin this down exactly, but you'll also find out that there's many TiBu users peeved about it.

About the only thing it's good for these days is when you have a ton of apps to update, go unbind whatever and then you can immediately return to the play store to hit the "update all" button without having to worry about the one(s) you don't want to update.
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
thanks. I wanted to make sure, in case I was testing something like black kat or something and the play store had updated I don't want to be giving bad feedback.

Hail ?
[Android Apps and Games] Jayrod76:
Since I don't run a black action bar, I can invert play_white. Only thing I've seen affected besides search is the hamburger menu. :)

Hi Mate,

let you know that not work in touchwiz 5.0 and 5.11 pushing apk manually in app and priv-app.

Apk will not appear in app drawer....parsing error.... may i know what you have done to be themeable? your behaviours as stock dl from play...as soon as i touch it(recompiled using original manifest and signed) will not be valid

Any idea?

Thanks and cheers to [MENTION=4603975]daveyannihilation[/MENTION] ;);)
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
Um which app? And layers is on TouchWiz? I had no idea.
[Android Apps and Games] g2uzer:
Before I flashed these theme ready apps I was able to go to my settings, apps, Google app and I had the option to manage storage, that option is gone. Is this due to these apps or did Google removed it completely?

On another note thanks so much for the hard work
[Android Apps and Games] onestoploser:
As far as I know they don't mess with the functionality of the apps. They are just edited to be themable. It must be a Google thing.
[Android Apps and Games] g2uzer:
It don't prevent for the app to show a update correct? Thanks for the info, it's my first time using these apps.
[Android Apps and Games] onestoploser:
Updates will still show in the Play Store. It's better to wait for the theme ready updates because Play Store updates can break themability.
[Android Apps and Games] flamus:
O.o... Not the thread for that.

Can I flash the aroma installer zip after I already flashed the other one ? Nexus 6 running PureNexus
[Android Apps and Games] nathanchance:
What other one? The Hangouts zip? Or the other GApps zip? I have in the past and it was fine; just make sure you follow the instructions.
[Android Apps and Games] g2uzer:
I flash that other theme package that had G+, playstore, hangouts, Google app and a couple other ones. It's the one right above the aroma one

The only thing is that it won't give me the option to uninstall on the playstore
[Android Apps and Games] SPAstef:
Are that screenshot CM themes or full apps?
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
CM theme, I can't edit gmail or Google plus apk's values folder without them crashing anymore. Google certified their values folders so if we even edit one color it's jacked.
[Android Apps and Games] Ckao:
Download isn't working can someone please attach zip?
[Android Apps and Games] SPAstef:
I installed this zip but nothing changed... I edited the custom lines of code but nothing happens...
[Android Apps and Games] davidwilson83:
That's because you have it as a data app. Open Play Store and uninstall Hangouts and I think you'll find it will theme correctly.

[Android Apps and Games] ogeretla:
My hangouts is a system app - and there is no way to make it a normal app.. I have tried to uninstall the updates back to stock without signing into it, flashed the zip and applied the theme and nothing... Any other suggestions?
[Android Apps and Games] kantjer:
are you sure the theme you're using is adapted for the themeable Hangouts?

If not you won't see any difference.
[Android Apps and Games] ogeretla:
its the theme that redirected to this site to download this .zip. it's by the same person, so I wouuld assume so. i thought that was the point of coming here for that theme from the play store. The Inversion theme...
[Android Apps and Games] davidwilson83:
Inversion theme isn't made by me. TRDS is made by me. This Themeable Hangouts won't work unless the dev adds all the necessary resources into their theme. Maybe check with them to make sure they have, because it's working fine for me on multiple devices and also for a lot of other people on multiple devices.

And if Hangouts is a system app then that's perfect, you just need to flash this zip and apply a theme that has the correct resources added.
[Android Apps and Games] ogeretla:
Thank you for your help.

Updated Themeable Hangouts to v3.3.94322993

Hello all,

I have now updated Themeable Hangouts to v3.3.94322993 and the one zip is suitable for 5.0 and 5.1 ROMs so check the op for the link to download it.

THEMERS

With the guidance of [MENTION=2126467]djdarkknight96[/MENTION] I have changed the way that a lot of the hard coded text is edited and the resources that each item calls. In the first version of this zip I added a number of new items to colors.xml, but in this version I have made most items that couldn't be changed before call on a number of different items in colors.xml. There are 3 main colours in colors.xml that the new edits call on - namely the items below:

<color name="primary_text_default_material_light">#de000000</color>
<color name="secondary_text_default_material_light">#8a000000</color>
<color name="default_bg">#ffffffff</color>

You can see where everything has been redirected in my Github here: https://github.com/daveyannihilation/Themeable-Hangouts

As always, any dramas/questions just reply in the thread and I will do my best to help you out.

Thanks and happy flashing/themeing,

Dave

Might be out of luck...stay tuned...google killing themed apps one by one with places api. Messenger was first to be killed by this new api. :(
[Android Apps and Games] nathanchance:
Yeah it should be fine, some of the apps are the same version in both so it doesn't matter from which zip you install them. The Aroma one just allows you to choose exactly which ones you install.
[Android Apps and Games] Albhedal:
Great job my friend.
[Android Apps and Games] hackel:
Is there a reason these need to be installed in /system instead of /data? It would be nice for ROM upgrades if I didn't also have to reinstall this package. Just curious...
[Android Apps and Games] g2uzer:
I removed theme ready Google app using Titanium Backup, download Google app from the actual play store and now i have the option to manage storage from Google app. Thanks anyway for the help ;) not sure why it don't give me the option using Google app from the zip.
[Android Apps and Games] buggerritt:
Thanks for this. Any possibility of including google voice?

Edit: I just searched and found your answer. Can you tell me which part I should not theme so that Google voice doesn't get themed?

Edit: I contacted the developer of magpie theme about this. He came up with a theme for Google voice and he said he'll implement it in his next update. I installed it as a trial and it works great standalone and with the full theme.
[Android Apps and Games] kryzeK:
I've only Play Store, Google Dialer and Google Contacts in /system. I can install hangouts and others normally as a APK?
[Android Apps and Games] davidwilson83:
Awesome mate, and glad to see that you're still on xda. Good to move on from an S4 I can imagine? I will contact Jimmy about that, because I have some users who said that my theme does the same thing.

I wouldn't install as a normal apk, you should really be flashing the Theme Ready apps in recovery.
[Android Apps and Games] buggerritt:
Yeah, man! Good to see you're around too. Good think it's find some time to learn some theming and ROM building with the amount of time I spend here. LOL

Sir, the good Doctor (he has got to have a PhD in App Theming!) is on the case trying to get the newest version ready. Please be patient and he will have it for us as soon as possible. In the mean time, turn off the Automatic Updates in the Play Store and Uninstall any updates if you have taken it.
[Android Apps and Games] heavens dragon:
hey thanks for making the themeable apps, i make layers theme and im first time trying to use the themeable apps starting with hangouts so my problem i can't seems to find background of main home activity only the bg behind the conversation list is changing not the conversation list ..any idea where the bg color of conversation is? thx for themeable apps :)
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
Show a screenshot so we know what you mean. Conversation bg color or conversation list bg color in colors.xml should be it. The main bg in stock went to android white but I think Dave put it to default bg in theme ready.
[Android Apps and Games] heavens dragon:
this is the problem im facing...i have already changed the default_bg and it's not changing the front the bg of main home activity and yes it's [MENTION=5711379]ANDROID[/MENTION]:color/white ..changing the value of that in framework changes the bg of conversation bg ..thx for the help
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
Then you're not using theme ready, you might have stock on data/app.
[Android Apps and Games] heavens dragon:
im using theme ready and i have cleared data and unisntalled stock version b4 flashing the hangouts zip
[Android Apps and Games] djdarkknight96:
Well if changing framework white changed the bg then is using stock apk somewhere in your system. Otherwise default_bg should have worked.
[Android Apps and Games] davidwilson83:
Sir have a look in the drawable and drawable-v21 folders for a file with the name bg_item_selectable_conversation_list.xml and change each instance of [MENTION=5711379]ANDROID[/MENTION]:color/white to whatever colour you want the background to be. Let me know how you go and if you need a hand just ask.

I read the first few pages and last few pages. I don't want to brick, so I'm going to ask.

Model:ZTE ZMAX Z970 Draconis

Software: BrokenOS 5.1.1

Layer: Spectrum 3.4

I have a fresh install of BrokenOS and Gapps-NOT Themed. What do I need to install as far as Zip because I see a few on 1st page. Also, I need to uninstall which? The contacts and dialer too? There is alot of info on a few different things, so I'm lost in the mix. I am not a dev, theme creator, or anything. I'm just a regular theme user. Thanks for any help in advance.
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
make sure automatic updates are turned off in the play store 1st of all. if you have recently installed updates to any of the apps in the theme ready zip, uninstall updates back to system. shouldn't have to uninstall anything, I believe the contacts and dialer only are for android 6.0+ so with you being on LP, don't think they will work for you. I am not 100% sure maybe Davey knows but i believe broken uses aosp contacts and dialer anyway unless you installed them in your gapps package. You should be able to just flash the zip from dj Darkknight96 with no issue or you can use the aroma version by Davey and choose what to install.

Hail ?
