UWTE v5.1 Update released.

Share your experience with us.
[Xposed Framework Modules] whoeva:
When is theming for emoji icons coming back?
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Never ask for an ETA. That's a basic xda rule. We will keep the thread updated with development of the module and you will know if and when a feature will be added.
[Xposed Framework Modules] whoeva:
Ah ok.. :eek:

Didn't know and I think asking is not that rude when a mod was already there in a paid app.

Will wait.. ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
I never said it was rude. I said it's against the rules.

Paid or not I am sure you won't want a mod that will cause your device to get into boot loop or even worse situation. My S4's Software got completely corrupted due to that and I had to reflash stock twice while trying to figure out the cause.

We developers will never remove a mod which we worked hard to make available on the first hand. But, we can't put our user's devices in jeopardy.

And to answer your 1st post it won't be coming in January. We have a list of updates already planned. Once that list is completed we will look into the Emoji Icons.
[Xposed Framework Modules] whoeva:
Ok, now I understand!

No, I don't want my phone to end in bootloop.

Thank you for explaining :good:

Good luck
[Xposed Framework Modules] McFlypants:
For me link colours don't work... I change it, but it stays Blue. Bad thing is, i have a blue bubble Background. ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Share device details and Xposed Logcat.

Also which version of UWTE do you use?
[Xposed Framework Modules] McFlypants:
I use Version 5.1 Pro (re-installed it today, but wasn't working on previous Version too) on cyanogenmod 13 for Nexus 5. Xposed is up to date. Whatsapp Version is 2.12.396.

Logcat coming soon......
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
WhatsApp may have changed names in 2.12.396.

Revert to 2.12.391 until we release an update to support latest version.
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
I updated to v2.12.398 from website and everything works as expected. Both Incoming and Outgoing links get themed.

Please recheck your settings and/or provide Xposed LOG.
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Guys how about a Floating Action Button to start a new Conversation? Or a custom App Icon for WhatsApp or a Custom Font for Text Messages?

Have any other feature in mind? Feel free to bring it to our notice. Post, Share, Mail. Whichever way you like. Just let us know your requests and we assure you we will try our best to bring that to UWTE.
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Hello dear users,

UWTE v5.1.1 will be released within next hour or so for Android Marshmallow Users. Users with Android Lollipop and below need not install the update as it will not change anything for them.

The update will allow UWTE to ask users[having an Android device with Marshmallow 6.0 or 6.0.1] to grant Storage and Contacts permission for the Theme Store to work.

We came to know about the issue just today when one of our users faced the issue of Theme store not working on his Nexus 6P.

Keep an eye on your Notification panel for the update Notification to Pop Up.

[Xposed Framework Modules] mdxdave:
Is it possible to change this text color?
[Xposed Framework Modules] mdxdave:
And how? ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Do you mean the ActionBar Text colour? If yes than no it can't be changed yet.
[Xposed Framework Modules] mdxdave:
No. I want to change the white text color, because white on light background is really difficult to read.
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
That's what I am asking which Text?

The one on the ActionBar : Mit Stern markierte

or the list text which you edited to make it non-visible?

If you are talking about the 1st one than no it's not possible.

2nd one is possible.
[Xposed Framework Modules] mdxdave:
Sorry for confusing, i talking about the white text color in the listview. Is it the same color as the incoming/outgoing text color in conversation screen?
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
List Title, description and divider all are changeable.

Open UWTE than Own creativity > Central App Mods > List UI Colours > Change colours here...
[Xposed Framework Modules] mdxdave:
I have already set the colors, but they have no effect on the text color in the "marked with star"-activity.
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Ok I will try to add support for that activity in next update.
[Xposed Framework Modules] M4-NOOB:
Missing colooptions

I have installed the paid version and I am in love with the app. However, it's seems that I am not able to change the text color in the settings, is this correct? An other coloroption I am not able to find, is the one for the "Emoji tabs" (when you press the button to choose an emoji you have the different tabs, I mean the color of the icons). I have a dark background theme and I can barely read the Settings texts or see the emoji tab icons. Are you planning on adding these features?
[Xposed Framework Modules] marcel112:
i cant seem to get it working. Running 5.1.1 TW with exposed and 2.12.367 official whatsapp from play store
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Yes its not yet possible to change text color of settings items.

You should really read recent change logs before posting. We removed the option for changing emoji panel icons color in v5.0 due to a severe issue. And before you ask if it will be added back or not, all I can say for now is that it won't be added in any update that will release in January.

I can't help you much with this little info. At least provide a xposed logcat and a basic step by step explanation what you tried to make it work before posting so that we can help you.
[Xposed Framework Modules] marcel112:
After installation I tried to change bubbles type , colour off the bubbles and activate extra mods, like activate shortcut in whatsapp. But none off them changed. I tried closing and open again off whatsapp. I don't know what info you're looking. I am willing to provide. Sorry for bad english
[Xposed Framework Modules] vishal11in:
Open xposed installer app and go to logs. Send us the file
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
As Vishal quoted send us the logcat file.

Also simply closing and opening WhatsApp won't work sometimes. Swipe out WhatsApp from recents apps for the changes to take effect.

Also may sound silly but have you activated module in xposed installer app and restarted your device once after installing and activating uwte in xposed inataller? If not than restart once else UWTE won't work.
[Xposed Framework Modules] marcel112:
Hello,

I did closed in recent, did activate in xposed module and rebooted to activate.

You need log cat from plain exposed or..?

sent from my G920F
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:

[Xposed Framework Modules] marcel112:
I did save the file but on my phone I can't sent a file, only gallery or link...

[Xposed Framework Modules] vishal11in:
As i said do a little search how to pull file. You need to go into data folder and rovo folder where it gets saved.
[Xposed Framework Modules] marcel112:
I used website version to post the log.

Hope this is what you're looking for
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
I don't see any issue. Please do a fresh installation and try again.
[Xposed Framework Modules] marcel112:
Ok

[Xposed Framework Modules] marcel112:
Still no go after delete and new install in combination with xposed

I can choose different options but no change in original app

[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Have you provided root permission? If no than grant it root permission and restart uwte. It will start working.
[Xposed Framework Modules] vishal11in:
What all modules work for you?
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
UWTE v5.2 is ready and will be released tomorrow. You can update from any one of the official sources.

Change log since v5.1/v5.1.1:

1. Set Own Avatar in Text Messages (Have to choose manually in UWTE)

2. Option to add New Conversation FAB(Floating Action Button) in Chats Tab. (See attachment).

3. App BG Image chooser updated to use built in gallery instead of a custom file manager.

4. Fixed contact avatar size. Now it should not look too big or too small.

5. Added Starred messages Activity in App BG supported activities.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Amokbunny:
Since back in the ol' days I loved WhatsApp+ and was really happy to stumble over this mod (don't know why it took so long, but well, I'm getting old :D ) and gave it a try.

But, guys, overlay ads in a trial version that lure me into opening spam websites? Seriously?

I maybe expect this from a scam-app, but not from a XDA trial version, especially if the XDA thread is explicitly promoting the paid version. That's fine, no problem here. Also no problem with a paid version, I bought a license for / donated to every app that I use on my phone for more than two weeks.

But here, you managed it for the first time that I instantly uninstalled an app I got from the XDA DevDB. This should be telling, to both developer and XDA. If I want to download these kind of apps I can go to androidpit or whatever crap site.

What makes it worse, that the opening post obfuscates this issue: There is NO word in the OP about ads. The opposite. It suggests a TRIAL in the best sense of the word. Or how am I supposed to interpret "Complete Free to use version with all features unlocked. 15 Days usage limit."?

At least one could be honest there, no?
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Friend if you go through the first post, the license key purchase say it will disable ads so it kind of makes it clear that ads are there. Also we have not loaded them heavily. This is not an app where user is required to open it frequently so if you set a theme you carry it for sometimes apart from few exceptions.

Also it's not totally on our hands what ads you see. Here in our mob we only see several ads from well known brands.

Yet we will contact with our providers and ask them to show ads only from well known brands.

And I would suggest you to give this module a try once again. You will surely love the possibilities it provides you.

[Xposed Framework Modules] zige:
[MENTION=2100355]marcel112[/MENTION] What Xposed framework version you are using? I had same problems when using UWTE & galaxy S6. We tried to find issue with [MENTION=4413589]vishal11in[/MENTION] but didnt solved problem. Other modules worked great except this one. Then Xposed framework for Samsung's updated and UWTE just suddenly started working. So what im telling you that i think its same kind of issue there again and i dont think that these guys cant do anything to fix it unfortunately. Are you on TW based rom or something else?
[Xposed Framework Modules] marcel112:
Yes. I am on TW. 5.1.1 .

I use xposed framework v79. Wanam version 20151217
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
As I quoted earlier please make sure that you have granted root permission to UWTE.

Open SuperSU > Apps

Check that Ultimate WhatsApp Theme Engine has Root Permission.
[Xposed Framework Modules] marcel112:
I did , twice. I do have permission.

I can't explain. No error message just nothing happens. Still only xposed module I installed and activated.
[Xposed Framework Modules] vishal11in:
As [MENTION=4656455]zige[/MENTION] wrote it could be xposed related issue . my advise would be to get in touch with him and ask him to send you his xposed installer apk to try. You never know it may help. We cannot help you until log shows error. We have already done basic check.

Now it's work. Have update again from xpose repro, boot device and now all is fine.... Thanks for this update

I9100 Tapatalk, RR 5.1.1 Lollipop

Have a other question..

On the right side I have now a white avatar icon... Is this my picture avatar?

Where I found the setting that I can make a picture from me for this avatar...?

In my normal whatzapp settings I have a profile picture activ the but no picture in the avatar on the right side from my messages...

Here a picture...

Next issue I found..

If I open a chat from any difficult friends, the first time the left avatar from my friend is not visible. I closed the chat and open again, now the avatar on left side is visible...

Any idea?

Also the new + button is to big

I9100 Tapatalk, RR 5.1.1 Lollipop
[Xposed Framework Modules] vishal11in:
New update allows you to set the avatar of your choice from external source .

Go to conversation window in uwte and then bubbles and scroll down you will find all the answer to your queries. In own avatar you need to select the external image for your own avatar .

Also As soon as we get time we will do a tutorial of new update for more usablility of our module new addons
[Xposed Framework Modules] 089man:
Thanks, have found but now left and right avatar not visible.

Before the issue was, the left avatar from a friend are visible only If I open the chat thread 2 or 2 times... Now I set my picture manual for the right avatar and now I lost complete the left and right avatar icon

Edit

Now it's works... Right avatar we must take don't crop... Now my picture is visible, and also the left avatar from my friend

[Xposed Framework Modules] vishal11in:
Play little and let it settle for few minutes. These features as already mentioned are experimental so allow them to settle.
[Xposed Framework Modules] 089man:
Thanks, have edit my message before.

Don't crop was the solution

I9100 Tapatalk, RR 5.1.1 Lollipop
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Mate, These features are experimental, we have also added summary in UWTE settings regarding this. Avatar depends upon The contact icon beside the Contact name in ActionBar and if it takes time to load than Avatar fails to show up. For now all we can say is use it as is and if you are having trouble than disable these mods. We are trying our best to make them stable.

We have also stated in UWTE Preferences that New Message Button may come as too big or small. As we asked share a screenshot along with these details so that we can add a workaround for your device in the next update :

Android version

Android Rom Name/Type

Screen Size

Screen Resolution [720P/HD, 1080P/FHD/ QHD, qHD, 480P, etc..]

Screen Density[If possible]

Screen PPI[Pixels Per Inch - if possible]
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
After cropping you need to click on SAVE/OK.

Back Press won't auto save.

Also Both Mods are independent of each other and in no way cause issue to each other.

As mentioned these features are experimental. So issues will be there.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tylog:
Thanks for the new update. The avatar in chats is very nice. All is fine. Only one thing that looks horrible

The old one was fine but this one looks not good. Is it possible to change?
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Can you please explain what looks horrible? The Floating Action Button?

You can disable it if you don't want it.

Also I added this in v5.2 only. So what was fine in old?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tylog:
Yes, the style from the button.reminds me of a screw head , the old one looks decent. My personal meaning but np, i disable it.

All other Things are fine
[Xposed Framework Modules] zige:
Can i ask, why UWTE need permission to use contacts?

Also want give little suggest.. If you add new mod to app, can you put it that it's disable for default? Now when user will update module it will mess up whole settings and users need to start digging up whats causing that. It's normal on roms updates that new features are disabled by default.
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
I again don't understand what you mean to say by old one looks decent. What are you referring to?

We keep them default on so that users know that there's something new in the update. You won't believe but there are a really good amount of people who don't read the changelog.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tylog:
You're right, i go back to 5.1.1 and it's not available there. I think I had another Whatsapp mod in mind, i am getting old. I thought the floating Button was previously already available. Nevertheless, I like the not the optically as i say but no problem, i play with the colors otherwise, I disable it, it's no big deal :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
No problem. We all mix things up.

I will be adding an option to choose icon for FAB in v5.3.

You can choose from Stock whatsapp message icon, pencil icon, plus icon(as in current version) and few more if I can find.

Also set gradient effect. It looks better that way.
[Xposed Framework Modules] zige:
Nah, you are not getting old :) It was there for some while when Whatsapp entered Material Desing time... But i'm not sure when it was removed, but i'm 100% sure it was there.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tylog:
Sounds Great , thank you :) i played now with the colors and it's ok for now. After 36 hours working maybe i sleep next time before i test new stuff :D

Hehe, sometimes i Feel old but thanks :)

Issue

Hi.

I have whatsapp version: 2.12.390 and cant seem to get the latest version of UWTE with pro key installed to work.

I have done the following:

1. Cleared the data of UWTE and started from scratch - no go.

2. forced closed whatsapp and cleared data - no go.

3 rebooted the device and tried 1 & 2 again - no go.

Any assistance would be appreciated.
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Check in Xposed logcat if it shows file does not exists. If yes than reinstall UWTE and it will start working.

Also make sure you have granted root permission to UWTE else it won't work. Grant root permission and restart UWTE.

I have a weird problem after v5.x

When i open conversations it scrolls up the conversation a little bit and i can not see the last line or message i have to scroll down a little bit.

This is very annoying and i couldnt find any option for it. I appreciate if tell me where to fix it.

Reverting back to v4 solves my problem.
[Xposed Framework Modules] arnabJ:
Disable avatars to fix the issue. As stated they are still experimental so few issues are expected.

It Worked!! Thank you very much.

One question is it possible to hide the call button in chats?

I really hate that little bastard.

So many times that I hit it and call someone instead of open the attachment menu.
