Can you copy/paste your xml files please?

---------- Post added at 11:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 AM ----------

This sounds more like an issue with the way you implement your modded app rather than the mod itself. What's the actual method you use to put your modded apk file back to your phone?

Nope.

That was easy! lol

There may be marginal differences in performance but not anything significant. Basically, bigger themes have more icons and so on inside them. You may find one theme has replaced, for instance, the battery icons and one has not. The first one's going to be bigger just because it'll have more files inside it.

Hi, I've been trying unsuccessfully for a while now to change the clock format on the lock screen and status bar, as well as the date format on the lockscreen. I'm running 4.0.4 stock-based TouchWiz. I'm fairly certain that as far as the status bar clock I need to edit Clock.smali in SystemUI, but I really don't know what to change - I just want to drop the leading zero. Same thing with the lockscreen clock, but I don't know how to edit the lockscreen clock or date formats. Would they be in android.policy.jar?

Anyway, any help would be much appreciated! :)

Kroz's Hue theme is based on CM10.1 so you can start with it and make your modifications but don't forget credits if you gonna post elsewhere.

Concerning SystemUI.apk the file is not present in Kroz's theme but there are some redirections in /res/xml folder.

Hey!

Hey Guys, I have a device which doesn't have a forum in XDA. So there aren't many Tweaks, Themes, etc. for my phone. I've tried to mod my phone but I always fail. Most of the guides are device-specific and the rest simply don't work... :(

Please take a look at my SystemUI.apk and Framework-res.apk if you can...(No other framework files are there)

What sort of mod are you trying to do?

..Have you tried Tickle My Android yet?
[Android Themes] JasonKZLY:
Thank you Sooo Much for replying. I've tried Centering the clock, moving the clock in the notification dropdown, Changing the position of the toggles to the bottom... and failed.

If I even touch an XML File, the apk simply doesn't work. If I mod an image, the modification isn't visible or it simply doesn't work.
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
This could be caused by the way the files are recompiled or perhaps the way they are put back on the phone.

I'll do a quick mod on this for you. If it works, then that's what we'll need to look at. :)

I'm wanting to test some theming on a playstore application (data/app) to see if I can get things going on something small. I was able to decompile and make edits (just not sure if I need to make more than one edit to get it to work) and recompile as well as sign and make a zip. But what I thought I made changes to, I did not see after flashing to me device. Is there a good example application I could test where someone knows the exact edits I need to make for me to see the changes? Hope I explained that correctly. Thanks.

Is there an app that will change the wallpaper on a screen every time you flip to and away from it?

Say you have three screens. The screen you're on now has a certain wallpaper on it. You flip to the left and see another wallpaper, then flip back to the right and immediately see a different wallpaper than the one you just left.

Is there anything out there that'll do that? And I don't mean something like a slideshow, it shouldn't change wallpapers while you're looking at it.

[Android Themes] :
If you just want the text removed - go to values ( or values-de or whatever language you run) open strings.XML. search for status_bar_clear_all_button and delete what is in the value field
[Android Themes] shockwaverider:
Thanks, yeah, that would be the obvious solution lol. I was just being stubborn and trying to figure out why, after I edited away the references to the strings from the xml, plus set the text color to transparent, is it still displaying the string in the first place? Anyway, I'll try it like you suggested when I get home, thanks again.
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Hmm..that would suggest to me that you were editing the wrong line. Or maybe the wrong file.

Can you share your xml please? I might be able to suggest something.

I'm not saying I definitely can, but it's worth a shot.

..Have you tried Tickle My Android yet?
[Android Themes] SXUsr:
Probably for the top background it will be in your status_bar_expanded, look for android:background="@drawable/ and see what's there, if it follows on with #ff000000 then replace it so it points at an image, this is mine...

android:background="@drawable/notification_panel_bg"

For your notification area see HERE for reference.

[Android Themes] shockwaverider:
Thanks for checking this out, I'll give it a shot when I have a bit of time later this week. It'll be more out of curiosity since I solved the problem by, as mentioned before, clearing the value of the string. It also wouldn't hurt to clean out the code a bit. This particular layout xml has received problably more abuse than any other as I've learned the ins and outs of theming, lol.

[Android Themes] Dr01nE:
usually the files. responsible for colors is "res/values/colors.XML"

Or, "res/color" if that part changes color when you tap/interact with them

but if its not there, "res/layout" might help. Or if its still not there, "res/values/styles.xml"

when all else fails, dig the smali

:/

I need some help finding what xml will edit a few last components. I've tried a lot of Googling, searching, and digging around to no avail. Is there any way to systematically find these things out (on Linux)?

First in the contacts apps, part of the header comes out green which is a color I've set for the system but not for the contact app, and I want it to stay blue.

Then in the dialer app I can't get the contact list on the far right to change to green, it stays blue.

While uninstalling something, the progress bar also stays blue.

Finally, I've gotten proof-of-concept that everything else can be done by trying out other themes, but I have not been able to get the reboot dialogue to change to green. I can't get a pic because the phone just reboots, but it's the one that occurs after going through the power menu, pressing reboot, and reboot again. I've never gotten another theme to change it, and I think it may have to do with the fact that I'm on Paranoid Android, specifically 3.5. If someone could confirm that they have a theme which changes it on Cyanogenmod or something that would really help.

Here's the actual APK if anyone wants to see what I'm doing wrong.

Hi everyone,

I have a question for go theme factory users. I need help really bad..

I have been themeing go launcher using go theme factory website version for some time, but I always have a problem with one part.

The homescreen Menu background.

I know that is .9png file and I have the program set up. I used it a few times for go locker and they worked fine. Now, for go Launcher, I used similar method by placing one pixel on the left side and top side of the 3x76 background I made. So its supposed to stretch when apply the theme on my phone. On the emulation on go theme factory website, the menu background is perfectly fine. BUT when I install the theme on my phone and test, the menu layout needs to be SCROLLED vertically to see the entire two row menu buttons..its definitely a problem with my theme but can't figure out what's wrong..how do you guys design the menu background for .9png?

I also tried putting the black pixels on the entire sides of left and right and one on top and bottom each but its still need to scroll..although not as bad..

I really really hope someone helps me!

Thanks a lot!

Where/How CM9 AOKP

I'm still new to rooting, but I do know enough on installing custom ROMs. I am currently using Tweaked 3.2 with CM9 (I believe, not sure ATM). I saw a theme (DeNite - Mesh Blue) that I'd like to try using, but I'm not familiar with the discussion of CM9 AOKP Theme Chooser. I'm guessing that this has something to do with a different ROM, as the theme does not appear in Tweaktools. If this question has been asked/answered in another thread, please direct me. If it hasn't, would somebody mind making me smarter about this?
[Android Themes] papstar:
Many AOSP ROMs support Theme Chooser. Settings -> Themes will allow you to change themes. If you do not have this option, Theme Chooser is unfortunately not included in your ROM.
