Good morning all

I'm not quite sure my question belongs here so have my excuses in advance if not cause I'm totally new here and trying to figure out this great but gigantic forum.

I have started experimenting in theming and trying to modifying things here and there and I need your help at this point.

Is it possible to visualize the strength of the signal that our mobile receives as a percent or any other way?

My task is to replace the status bar with a custom one but this one is an info that I can't live without.

I need to do this within UCCW though, not using an external app.

Thank you in advance

if that image is in the Theme.apk, yes you woudl drag correct image into the theme.apk...

Hey Im kind of new at this but hoping someone can help me find the location to edit the color of the dial box text. Ive attached an image.Thanks

Are you using the right compression method when you add the image and/or signing the apk after?

Guys, i need to remove battery icon entirely from statusbar, What to cut and where?

For user of PowerLine this icon is damn useless(i prefer 1px bar at top than this).
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Depends on your rom, really. Some versions of Android make this easier than others. Copy and paste your status_bar.xml please.

Have you Tickled Your Android lately?

(tinyurl.com/ticklemyandroid)
[Android Themes] Andre_Vitto:
Yes, after signing the apk all's hale and hearty.. I thought when you just replace the png you dont need to sign.. nonetheless.. thanks a lot..
[Android Themes] Gunthermic:
Depends on how you want to get rid of it. You can remove it out of the status_bar.xml or you can repalce battery image with a 1px image, thus removing it from status bar.
[Android Themes] Pneuma1985:
It has to be a 1x1 trans png btw otherwise it'll still show... eirher way the placeholder will remain. Actually removing it requires an [MENTION=283679]null[/MENTION] in the xml.. might not even work still depends on how the xml looks haven't removed bat since 4.0.3...
[Android Themes] pupakota:
Great info, guys, so i can make 1 px line as icons and rest of space gained that way WILL shrink automatically after appying 1px wide image?

I mean positins of elements like clock and signalbar will be spaced properly without xml edit?

I will post my statusbar xml later, as, anyway, i'd like to know what to cut just for love of knowledge.
[Android Themes] SXUsr:
If you're referring to .9png borders? then no as that isn't how they work.
[Android Themes] Pneuma1985:
No not at all were talking about a bandaid your talking about true editing... Like actual xml editing and there aren't that many .9s that are icons so your good there but each statusbar icon has it's own xml so removing them requires a bit of editing and actually removing them from the apk itself requires even more xml editing. Team anon has gotten quite good at changing apks so if you need to look at something take a look at our last Rom we removed battery from statusbar all together...Same method works as far as I know.
[Android Themes] ImmortalTekkers:
Are there any colours that drain battery more than others? Because I've heard that's dark colours save more battery.
[Android Themes] Pneuma1985:
You could never notice it I assure you... The amount of battery the screen uses for color brightness is very minimal. Though if you had a battery app that logs everything youd notice its like 5 minutes of use after two weeks so the ratio is very low... If you want battery performance try a kernel...
[Android Themes] sujaanj:
I used apktool to decompile Textra (the MMS app). Then I changed one of the values in /res/values/strings.xml alone with a few PNGs. Next, I recompiled with apktool and had the app signed. No further changes.

The app installs fine, but I'm having the following happens:

1. If I go to write a new text message, I can select a contact fine, but as soon as I click into the field to start typing the actual message, the app force closes.

2. Or if I type my message first, when I select a contact, I can type the name into the field fine but when I select the actual contact the app force closes.

3. The app doesn't show any of the text messages in my inbox.

Any tips on where to go with this?

Hi, I'm new to the forums and have been looking for a Black Metal related theme for my Galaxy SII. I've done a search but can't find anything, so I was wondering if anyone has created one? If so, could you possibly point me in the right direction?

Mr. Brandenk... I realize this post is a million years old. I really wasn't too sure about going all the way through 4000+ threads when you are already on the right track! LOL I hope this is ok? I don't want to offend anyone!!! I'm hoping you can help me with something? This concept you have here is exactly what I want do with the themes I want to change up. But I'm looking for a Go Contacts Theme in .zip format. I have looked everywhere! Especially on XDA. Even posted on thread where they were looking for the same thing! But It was really old too! LOL I don't know how to decompile APK'S or I already would have. Maybe you know where I can find a .ZIP file for it? If not I understand! Thank you for your time either way! :)
[Android Themes] SXUsr:
So old it's a bit irrelevant as we've come a long way since then.

Then you're in the right place to learn and there's been many guides written since 2009 that show you how. ;):)

Change it to whatever you want.

You can take elements from the first and add them to the second or vice versa.

Hi all..

I am kinda new in the theming community.. I wanted to change my text color of "owner info" in the lockscreen..

I change the value in "values\colors.xml" in framework-res.apk.. but nothing happens..

Additionally I also wanted to change the clock color in home screen (widgets are not possible due to exchaneg security)... and in colors.xml I see both the foreground colors and background clock colors as #ffffffff which is black.. whereas my clock text xolor is currently white..

I am using exchange work security so not sure if its the cause..

Pros here have any suggestions for me..

[Android Themes] robstillholdin:
lol.....ok, i was thankful and appologized for a lame question, i did two different searches with "ota rc33" as part of my strings, got mixed results and nothing with definite answers so i asked for a sure answer, i dunno how thats disrespectful? dont know how much more i could do nor do i care, this forum is great, but some of you are obviously taking things a bit too seriously bro's......
[Android Themes] JackD3ath:
You searched....but failed to see the sticky that said general theme questions here. In that thread, the very first things posted are requirements for installing themes. It just makes the forum sloppy when you post new thread for lame questions that can be answered with the tiniest amount of research.

I didnt mean to call you jerk, i apologize.

[Android Themes] BazmanFoo:
Hi'

I'm relatively new to themes and have a question. I am running CM10.2 on a Galaxy S4 i9505.

I use the Chromium theme (which I know there is no longer support/develpment for) because I prefer the light theme and all others appear to be dark, Since updating to CM10.2 the system app 'Phone' is no longer themed except for the font. As a result, I have dark text on a dark background which obviously renders the app useless.

Is there an inverted Phone app I can flash separately to resolve this? I really don't want to have to give up the light theme as it goes so well with the homescreen etc I have created for the phone.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks
[Android Themes] MJPollard:
The reason the dialer is no longer themed in CM10.2 is that it was moved from com.android.phone to com.android.dialer. Themes have to be updated to take this into account (which, apparently, the Chromium theme won't be, as you pointed out).
[Android Themes] BazmanFoo:
Thanks. Do you know any alternative white cm themes? I haven't been able to find any.

Or, is there a way to flash an inverted dialler?

Icons size on multiple device

Hi,

I actually making a icon theme. And I create them in 144x144px for xxhdip device.

My question is, for lower resolution devices 96x96, 72x72 ...do the icons will be resize automatically ? Or I have to make the icons in this size too ?

Thanks for your answer.
[Android Themes] Primokorn:
AFAIK only .9.png images are resized automatically so you have to create other icons for lower resolutions. That's why we have drawable-xxhpi / xhdpi/hdpi...
[Android Themes] MJPollard:
Also, from my experience, lower resolution icons will scale upward, but not the other way around. For example, if you're using an XHDPI device but only have an HDPI icon, the HDPI icon will be used. (At least as far as the launcher goes, anyway.) Best to have icons for all the target resolutions you'll be supporting, though (if you can).
