changing lock dots & fonts

-n order to change the lock code there are images (png) with something lock in their name they are located in framework -> res -> drawable just change the dots with custom imgs also make sure to change the border circles means the ones which turn red or green when pressed I had made those changes for hybrid theme so check my post there for custom lock code...

And the fonts stuff just change the fonts in the fonts folder but make sure the names remain same as in the fonts folder...

1.41 compatible themes

Ok to the guys who have made themes for 1.41, i have installed a lot of them so far to no avail. Blue star theme is the only one i haven't had problems with. I have tried umbrella, vintage war and both get stuck at custom boot screen or android boot screen. I have tried wiping, reinstalling, flashing 1.41 then flashing themes again. Nothing works, any ideas what could be causing this? Its weird cause blue star and vintage war are both done by manup i dont get why one works and other doesnt. There are no errors on themes. I have never gotten stuck on my custom boot screen before. Any ideas?
[Android Themes] dthadamaja:
I take it you're using rc30 version? If you are try this:

Wipe phone, install jf 1.41, sign in and let your phone sync, once that's done then apply the theme. Dont do a wipe. Do the wipe only before JF's 1.41. Also make sure the themes you d/led are the correct file size. They do get corrupt at times in the d/l process. g/l
[Android Themes] dthadamaja:
hope this helps, drawable folder in your framework. btn_code_lock_default and btn_code_lock_touched are the files you are looking for

Idea: Make apps pullout background opaque to increase scrolling performance

As all of us must know, scrolling through the all apps pullout tab isn't the most enjoyable experience, partly because the scrolling is relatively choppy compared to other parts of the Android OS. It's pretty clear this is because the background is a very slightly transparent black, and rendering such a large transparent surface is wasting cpu cycles as it scrolls. To test this, open a folder (also has a transparent BG) then pull out the tab; scrolling performance will be noticeably worse because it's now rendering two layers of transparency.

So I have a really simple theme idea: to make the pullout tab BG opaque black or dark gray, and change nothing else.

not a bad idea but requires editing one of the xml files. I believe stericson was able to change it

Lock Screen Help

I am working on a theme for HTC HeroC,its a mixture of a few themes merged together. Anyway I did some changes and in the lock screen (CM6.1) I lost the text in the jog bar that say "Unlock" and also in the phone, the same side of jog bar the "Answer" lags way behind. What is really weird after I answer a call I can lock the phone and then unlock and see "Unlock" in that jog bar on lock screen, but only once. After that it is gone again. Does anyone know where this file is located (the file/png that has text "Unlock"), I have looked all over the framework! I also changed my animations, could this be the issue, if so what do I need program wise to edit the XML's?

Thanks

Where is the text color controlled for the menu open at the bottom of this screenshot? I don't really know what that menu is specifically called, so it is hard to figure out.

Nevermind, found it in /res/values/styles.xml , under TextAppearance.Widget.IconMenu.Item . I changed ?textColorPrimaryInverse to ?textColorPrimary.

Don`t forget this here, since in some menus you have the "more" dialog:

<style name="Theme.ExpandedMenu" parent="@style/Theme">

<item name="listViewStyle">@style/Widget.ListView.Menu</item>

<item name="windowAnimationStyle">@style/Animation.OptionsPanel</item>

<item name="background">@null</item>

<item name="itemTextAppearance">?textAppearanceLargeInverse</item>

</style>

change it to:

<style name="Theme.ExpandedMenu" parent="@style/Theme">

<item name="listViewStyle">@style/Widget.ListView.Menu</item>

<item name="windowAnimationStyle">@style/Animation.OptionsPanel</item>

<item name="background">@null</item>

Are there any themes for 2.1 Sense (Rogers) roms? If I am not mistaken, the framework is different from vanilla roms.
[Android Themes] he_stheone64:
Yes - since you have the com.htc.resources.apk, that overwrites a lot of the Vanilla stuff. I really know Vanilla inside out, but after switching to DHD it now gets very frustrating. A lot of my "standard edits" suddenly don`t work and it takes a while to find the correct entries in com.htc.resources.apk (maybe only in new Desire HD - who knows...).

Examples:

1. Statusbar text colour edits in layout folder have NO effect in DHD Sense ROM, so obviously they are in htc framework

2. Text colour changes for menu (see posts above) don`t have any impact in DHD Sense, when on CM6 everything works fine.

3. htcphone style edits also do not show up, obviously they are hidden in smali code

and the frustration with htc themes continues... it would be great if an HTC Sense expert could give some hints.

Hey yall,

Perhaps Im exhausted... I'm looking to change menu softkey text color.

Heres what Ive done:

adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk c:\1
apktool d framework-res.apk
apktool if framework-res.apk

now I make appropriate changes to /res/values/styles.xml

then...

:confused:

apktool framework-res framework-res.apk
adb push framework-res.apk

now I use SignAPKtic to sign the file with testkey

reboot recovery mount system and sdcard

adb push /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework

It reboots into bootanimation loops.

Anyone know what I am screwing up?

Do i Need to yank "assets" folder and androidmanifest.xml from unedited, still compressed framework-res.apk and put copy to the decompiled source folder before i issue "apktool b"?

when I

adb b framework-res framework-res.apk

i get a

/build

/apk

/res

AndroidManifest.xml

resources.arsc

but no apk file.

the framework-res.apk is from the D1 MIUI 12.11 rom.

Im using apktool-1.3.1.tar.bz2 and apktool-install-windows-2.2_r01-3.tar.bz2

Im about to /facedesk, and appreciate any help.

I haven't checked the Gingerbread keyboard yet, but I'm assuming it's like the old one where they were hidden in values/colors.xml (From source or apktool'ing it). Pretty sure it's the candidate entries.

Mind getting me a framework-res from your device so I can look?
[Android Themes] kevin2516:
Same issue here, i successfully changed the font colour of that popup menu to white instead of black by editing the styles.xml, but when i try to go to the language and keyboard settings or cm - user interface settings etc, i get a force close, and possibly others i duno. One thing i do notice after changing the font colour of the popup menu (from the instructions given before) is that the Header bar under the status bar (e.g. where it says settings, changes from a grey bar to a black one with non bold font), i didn't change anything that would make it do that.

so did anybody have a look into the new gingerbread framework, theming the status bar looks like its going to be hard since some stuff is moved around
[Android Themes] knzo:
Ok here's a question.

I have an edited framework-res.apk and it works fine if I flash it as whatever.zip after a clean boot.

However, if I replace that same framework-res.apk for the original one before building a ROM and then flash it, it gives me force closes after it boots.

I've read somewhere that the first boot needs the original in order to build the dexs, only after that can a new framework-res.apk be flashed. Now if this is true, how come there are several ROMs with an edited framework without the need to flash later?

[Android Themes] mloc33:
There`s an app on the market called Desktop Visualiser, you can have what ever image/text for an icon shortcut to any app you have on your phone, just mess around with it, you`ll get the hang of it! :)

Depends on what launcher you have, most of them work pretty much the same, long press on the screen and add what you want.

For a "Blacked Out" theme, just find a dark wallpaper you like and use an app called Wallpaper Set and Save, this is better than using the phone it`s self to add to the home screen, it does`nt crop it.

Have a look through this thread, you should find what you want, enjoy!

I've been working on a theme that is basically making as much as possible transparent on Froyo. I've managed to get the status bar, dialer, and contacts transparent, but I've searched all through the xmls and pngs of Settings.apk and MMS.apk and for the life of me can't find anything that will change the background for either one.

I know MMS.apk has a preferences setting for white to black, but when trying to track this back to the .smali files, I can't find anything that I'm comfortable calling a color code (I've edited services.jar before, so it's not ENTIRELY foreign to me, but that's the extent of my experience).

If anyone has any insight on this, please help me out :)

Edit: I'd even be thrilled to death if someone could point me in the direction of a theme or mod that has one of these with a altered background.

How would I go about theming it? I found a mod for CM6 a while ago, but when you pressed one of the icons on the bar, it highlighted orange and took on the rounded froyo shape again.

On another note, does anyone have a hi-res gingerbread phone icon? like the one shown here

The one CM7 comes with is just a green and black square with a phone in it.

can you point me out some?

is it difficult to port higher resolution themes to a low res? is there any guide?

thank you
[Android Themes] Edubyah:
The way I got started was with an image converter like AVS I would resize whole folders from the metamorph themes remove the 9pngs and replace them with the closest I could find already the right size from a theme the right resolution. But I would use Ninjamorph most of the time. Is your phone LDPI?
[Android Themes] robyshot:
yes my phone is ldpi (qvga 240x320)

for what i understood metamorph is better for theming while ninjamorph is aimed at substituing any files inside archives (apk jar etc)

anyway that's not the problem

so you are saying that i could take any hdpi theme and then resize it to my resolution?what would happen if i apply a generic metamorph theme(let say a mdpi one)?just bigger images or brick like consequences?
