Theme Proposal

Just playing with some ideas for now. Mostly trying to get a cohesive color scheme together.

Would anyone here be interested in a version of this theme? If so are there any requests for changes or additions to this basic layout?

The transparency is faked by overlaying the background over the status bar image.

Obviously this theme is not for the contest, just something to keep me busy till the pros complete their masterpieces.

Any feedback would be appreciated.
[Android Themes] JackD3ath:
I like the color scheme. I have noticed the trend towards making a background and status bar incorporated, and it looks real nice, great in fact. I just change my wall too much.

But I really like the design, very fluid.
[Android Themes] JLine05:
That looks pretty damn good. I would like to see what you do with the clock.
[Android Themes] sstmcarr:
Thanks for the feedback thus far.

I may take the design off the status bar for those who wish to change the background.

As for the clock, so far it has the exact color scheme as the icon with the hands having a glow at the tip where it meets the hash marks of the face.

Working now on making the menu items have the same muted blue colors as well.

Thanks again.

Signing Applications on Vista 64 bit

Good day,

I am wanting to know if i am the only person this is happening to or if it is becuase of my new computer.. Before i started to create a theme and everything was going well and i was on Windows Vista 32 bit... I purchased a new computer and i downloaded the easy sign applications and now whenever i try and sign my .zip file it goes through just like no my 32 bit.. but when i try and update it on my system it gets stuck on my splash screen... Is this a known issue is there an update of the easy sign for Windows Vista 64 bit? Or is it just me doing something wrong?
[Android Themes] Stericson:
Yes, I have just figure this out. there is a problem with right click signing on vista, it doesnt work. Try resigning using the autosigner.bat.

Boot Screen Font

When you turn on the G1 it shows "T-Mobile G1" On its boot screen

what is the font of the "G1" in the boot screen?

Thats the G1 in boot screen not the t-mobile words

[Question] Time Font Color

I know its possible to change the notification color, but what about the time? I haven't been able to poke around in any of the xml's since they seem to be encrypted and I'm too lazy to even attempt to decrypt it.

Any insight on this would be nice. If your comment is gonna be something like, "lol n00b ur dum1!", go dig a hole and die in it.

[Android Themes] Meltus:
i highly doubt it will be an actual font, It will probably just be a logo HTC/Google came up with.

You may be able to find one that looks similar, but if you want an exact font you may have to make it :)

I have the asian dream and wondering about themes

Ok I want to install themes and I have the HTC Dream not T mobile G1

and our latest RC is RC8..

So will downloading the RC33 (which is needed for installing themes I believe) mess up my phone?
[Android Themes] mannyb:
RC33 themes probably won't work, no. You'll have to stick to RC8 themes (which are quite few) or install RC33 or ADP1.1h instead.

Hi,

I've got 99% of my theme done although I can't find where the bottom of the notification bar is and the white bit where the notifications would be.

I've done a little picture below to help me explain.

Bottom notification bar is the arrow.

The white bit where the notifications would be is the hatched.

Thanks for help in advance.

Also could someone tell me how to put icons in for well know apps from the market. At the moment I have put the full apk in the update and change the icon. But this increases the theme size. Thanks again!
[Android Themes] Manilus:
I must say, this is the absolute worst question I have ever seen asked. That is the kind of thing you keep to yourself. Seriously...
[Android Themes] doooshty:
What exactly are you looking for in an A&F theme? Black and white half naked models? Little icons that look like polo shirts? Maybe a task bar of a polo shirt that when you pull it the collar pops? A moose battery icon? Putting aside my feeling about A&F for a moment...There isn't much for a theme builder to work with even if someone wanted to. Your best bet is to download something like glossy minimalism, throw up a very tasteful and artistic abercrombie wallpaper and call it a day. If you want to be adventerous, you can flash an abercrombie-esque font to your phone and hope it doesnt look like crap...

I am trying to be less snarky these days=)

I might also add that things like this...that are sooo limited in scope of people who would want it, is a great reason to learn to create your own themes. Because this is something that will probably not be something created otherwise.

OR, you could put a bounty out for someone to create one. Money motivates, and also helps suppress the gag reflex when forced to work on something you don't like yourself.

Best of luck!
[Android Themes] tubaking182:
i gotta say i hate A&F, but dooshty makes a good point. with some money involved i, along with others i'm sure, would be able to hold back most animosity towards the company and even let you make all the decisions. i would be willing to do it but i am currently working on a theme for another member strictly because it is such a narrow spectrum of people that would use it. i can really only see you using an A&F theme and therefore no theme dev is gonna make it. most theme devs create things that they like and want to use and then decide to share it because they like it and it might be cool to someone else.

dialer skinning...is it possible?

I've seen some theme with square dial buttons in this forum. I love my current theme (as far as icons and stuffs) but my dialer still stock. Is there a way to customize the dialer by itself?
[Android Themes] manup456:
Yes there are two sets one is in contacts.apk and there's another in Phone.apk the ones in Phone.apk is for the dial pad while in a call like when checking your Voiemail and putting in your pass and the Contacts.apk is the main dial pad.
[Android Themes] prash:
Yeah I had the same problem with my theme too, I almost got frustrated because I was changing the phone.apk thinking it would change the dialer keypads and not seeing the results. Never figured to check during a call I guess. Then Saw the contact.apk had the same buttons, and changing that helped.
[Android Themes] RandumAccess:
i might have done it for him if there were more resources to AnF.

They have no line of watches... so no AnF clockface and the theme fell apart from there...lol

I actually searched for logos, or images or something i could use and Honestly only found 2 good images to make a AnF theme out of... the motivation to do this also fell from there.

besides the naked men, or the ones kissing women in odd places theres not much to Fitch is there?...lol
[Android Themes] doooshty:
Exactly what I was saying. even if someone wanted to, how would they? just but a A&F wallpaper on a neutral theme and call it a day

New to this forum.. I need help!! xD

Hello this is actually my first post here (woot!) and i am having some trouble trying to install themes on my phone. I have updated to RC33 1.41 (rooted version) and am running firmware 1.1 and babeband 62.33.20.08H_1.22.14.11. I have tried installing the themes that were supposed to work with 1.41 like the carbon glow, umbrella, and vintage not war and all end up just freezing on the G1 loading screen and that's it. I then have to reboot my phone back to the rooted rc33 version mentioned above. Can anyone please help? i'm not as tech savvy as most of you and i truly admire your knowledge but i am trying to become good at this. If someone can let me know what i can do to install at least one of those themes correctly or at least tell me how to change individual icons and so on. I would be eternally grateful and will do a happy dance xD I thank you so much for your time in advance i truly appreciate it. Take care and thanks again :)

animated bootscreen

I'm having a little issue with this. Is anyone else getting a black background on their "boot_robot" and "boot_robot_glow" images? I made this splash screen and lined up the "ANDROID" to where robot images would be right at the top of the "D" in "ANDROID". Then I changed the robot images to some glowing effects. This is what it's supposed to look like(while glowing animated).

...but behind the glow, is a black square background, about the size of the "boot_robot" image itself. The png background is clear also. I can't figure out why it's doing this...

Matrix theme

A Matrix theme would be amazing !!! Instead of the Android animated logo on the boot screen, maybe we could have the matrix letters scroll down spelling A.N.D.R.O.I.D. or something with a few of the Matrix symbols scrolling down with them so that it looks legit. I think that would be amazing !!!

That wrinkled paper theme is great. Someone should definitely create that.

You either don't have enough space or the theme you're trying to install doesn't support ADP.

It might be because you dont have enough space... it also might mean that the theme might not be supported by JFv1.42.

Mount the SD Card in the recovery console using adb, then overwrite the theme update.zip with the ADP update zip file.

True, very true... I would love to see a "The Doors", "The Beatles", or "Led Zeppelin" theme but most folks like rap music now days. Sadly, it seems rock is dead somewhat. I am 28 and haven't heard much good rock n roll since I was a teenager also. I understand about going back and listening to older music because there is rarely any good rock music that is new. I can name like 10 good bands around (that still record regularly) and the whole deal is quite sad. I understand completely, though I'm not a big Jimmy Buffet fan, I can respect a rock legend though.

Stuck at fastboot screen for custom boot img

Hi

This seems like a really easy step but i;m stuck sorry !

I have loaded phone in fastboot and updated drivers on PC but do not know how to get out of fastboot mode (i.e. screen with red green blue and white) and have run the cmd comand put it prompts..

the system cannot find the path specified.

Please help as really want a custom boot img

Thanks

......

Am following this guide:

[HOW TO] Install Custom Boot Images/Post images here

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is updated with the lastest tool. (Windows)

I included a zip with all files you may need at the bottom of the post.

1. Turn off your phone

2. Turn on the phone into bootloader (camera+power).

Make sure it say fastboot in the middle if not hit back and it should appear-

3. Make sure your device is found in device manger

If you don't see adb device up top in device manger find the yellow mark devices

Right Click, update driver, and point to the location of the USB Driver

(http://dl.google.com/android/android_usb_windows.zip)

4. Open and extract the below zip to your desktop

You should now have a custom and fastboot folder on your desktop

5. Open up a dos window (start>run>CMD)

6. Type cd desktop then cd fastboot

7. If you would not like to flash the sample images skip to step 9

8. copy and paste the command line by line

fastboot flash splash1 mysplash.rgb565

fastboot flash splash2 mysplash.rgb565

fastboot reboot

Part 2 Making your own images

9. Open up the "create" folder

10. Run CreateG1Splash.exe

11. Open up your image in the program and click convert

12. Goto the folder of your images and their you will find mysplash.rgb565

13. Place the mysplash.rgb565 into the fastboot folder

14. copy and paste the command line by line

fastboot flash splash1 mysplash.rgb565

fastboot flash splash2 mysplash.rgb565

fastboot reboot
