i have to correct me,

the dividers you are looking for, are (in my case) in system.ui.

divider_horizontal_light_opaque.9.png

divider_horizontal_dark_opaque.9.png

if you need help to edit them, pm me. you don´t need to compile or something, to change these pngs.

Hey Mates,

I need this MIUI Photo-Widget but the Problem is, i am not on MIUI :(

Is there a chance to get it without MIUI?

Would be also a help if somebody could give me just the phrame picture as a .png data...

Hope you can help me! Thanks...
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
its "dark_header.9.png" , framework.res
[Android Themes] RavoxX:
I've done everything again but there was no change. Could it be that there is a XML-File that defines the opacity and set it to 0?
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
that is possible. try that: take your system and framework, send them to out kitchen and select colorful dividers. thats what i´ve done, to find out.

it´s also possible, that they are 1 pixel squares as a 9.png graphic.

if nothing helps, take a look at the xml.

thats all i know.
[Android Themes] RavoxX:
Okay, i've changed every divider with out kitchen but no one changed something in the notificationbar. In general at the first view only change of divider_horizontal_bright.9.png and _dark_opague were visible.
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
what kind of rom are you using? at cm7 are about 10 dividers in frame, 2 dividers in system. maybe at other roms that is differrent.

Can someone pleaseeeee tell me where to locate the image files for the green indicator buttons that i circled in the screenshot below (CM7)?? i have searched all through SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk and i cant find them for the life of me. they are hideously ugly and i would like to change them. thanks ahead.
[Android Themes] RavoxX:
This entry is missing in my XML. I've uploaded my SystemUI, framework-res and twframework-res, would be great if you could have a look at it. I looked again at every XML in SystemUI/res/layout but I could not detect anything with divider_horizontal.
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
i take a look a little later.
[Android Themes] Insomaniac10:
thanks for your quick response....do you think id be able to simply change the color using gimp without running into any problems, without decompiling?

i am terrible with .png9 files, and i know each one of them has different parameters....sometimes you can get away with certain edits, sometimes you cant
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
send me the files, tell me which color you want, NoProb.
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
check this out! but please extract the files. changelog included

[Android Themes] Insomaniac10:
you sir, are a great sport.

off = white

on = blue that matches rest of pulldown (not exact obviously,

just not too much of a dark blue)

thanks very much.
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
btw, did you change the color of the text at your notification dropdown or is that default?
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
here you go! i hope the color matches your DropD.

if not, modifi the files in the zip, how you like.

and post the results please!
[Android Themes] RavoxX:
No, it doesn't work =/ The border is still transparent.

[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
****! i forgot to rename framework again!

unzip the zip folder, rename "testframework" to framework and zip the files again.

du you make a backup before? restore that before flashing the theme.
[Android Themes] RavoxX:
I've tried it but now appears while flashing "E: Can't open /SD card/Theme.zip (bad)
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
ok, maybe the zip is corrupt. did you use 7Zip?

[Android Themes] Insomaniac10:
no dice on those new images...i tried to morph them into the Theme.apk, but it wasn't working out so i just morphed successfully SystemUI.apk then applied the default theme via theme chooser, and this was the result
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
WHAT?

use apk manager, extract your theme, then copy the files from folder "done" to your project folder, (\res\drawable-hdpi, maybe rename it), then zip apk, sign it.

deinstall original, instal mod, done!

i´ll try it on my phone, wait.
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
maybe that is what you wanted? coudn´t get the colors to work in my case. but it looks better i think.
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
Searched your files, but couldn't find the matching XML for statusbar, I'm really sorry

[Android Themes] RavoxX:
Okay, no problem. Thank you very much for trying without having the phone. Maybe another have an idea. Thanks for your efforts. =)
[Android Themes] Insomaniac10:
I don't think the apk is signed properly...it won't let me install

[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
it is signed, but that is a different signing to the original. you have to uninstall the org first.

Go Launcher with default ISC design?

I want to use Go launcher becose of the added functionality, go widgets and so on, but I don't want to alter the default ISC design. Is it possible?

Using an ICS theme is purley stupid when I'm using ICS 4.0.2, right? So must be some other way to keep the ICS design in Go Launcher?
[Android Themes] RavoxX:
No, there's no other way (or I do not know it) . You have to download the appropriate theme or change the icons and so on by your own.
[Android Themes] Rankiz:
But is the ICS theme for Go Launcher just as good as the default ICS stock?
[Android Themes] RavoxX:
Just try it =D I do not have a Galaxy Nexus or a ICS-Rom on my phone. If you do not like Go Launcher with ICS-Theme, just delete it and use the Stock-Launcher again.
[Android Themes] he_stheone64:
Just try Nova Launcher, which is based on ICS launcher and combine it with APW widgets.

i´m working on a little theme, and atm my only problem is the font color.

both of them are popups, but i don´t know, were i can change the color for powermenu on the left picture? every fontcolor is ok, only that one takes me ages.

thanks in advance
[Android Themes] RavoxX:
Did you looked at framework-res/res/layout/power_dialog.xml? In my is nothing with android:color but maybe in yours, as we already know there are differences between our ROMs. Or look at this thread, there is explained how to add the expanded power menu, maybe in one of the mentioned files is the entry for defining the color in the menu.
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
already looked thru that. i hoped, there is maybe a tweak, to set a special color for that. in that case, android isn´t flexible.

Need help getting dropdown boxes to display correctly.

I am trying to create a theme for the Motorola Xprt/Droid Pro and I have ran into an issue I can't resolve. I have searched for answers and either I am searching for the wrong thing or there is not much info out there.

My problem has to do with the formating of the dropdown boxes. As you can see from the circled area in the attached photos, my boxes are not formating correctly on the screen.

If someone can tell me how to correct this or point me in the direction I need to look, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

[Android Themes] tcaudill01:
Thank you so very much. that was the problem. I had edited the .9 png and it was corrupting the layout.
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
and now it works? check out that tool! xUltimate-9Patch

it helps a lot. there you can "compile" 9.png graphics, and place it in compiled apkfiles(Unsigned)

this way i´m working on my theme.

have fun, let me see the results, would be interresting.

Hi ... I have ICS icons for the status bar, as UOT do not already have available I wanted to add myself, but my current framework (which is made in UOT) have almost twice of icons.

I can just delete all (Not all obviously, only the notification icons as the battery for example) the existing icons and add the ICS icons?.

The icons take them out of a theme for CM7 for MDPI. there is just a little bit diferens in the begining of icons name.

Thanks in advance.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/29501035/Sin título.png
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
You must have the right size of the icons and they must have the right names. Then there should be no problem to putting the ics files in your framework /system.Ui.

send with telepathy
[Android Themes] JOSEunit10:
Thanks for the reply... but in my framework there are many more icons, thats my doubt. And yes, the icons are from my resolution MDPI.

For example for change the battery icon, in my framework are like 240 icons(% + charge animation), and in the ICS are just 44 or something, so how can i replaced one by one?.

Can i delete all the batteries icons and just add all the ICS batteries icons in the folder? (with the right name).
[Android Themes] the1dynasty:
if you can edit the XML, you should be able to either add or take away the amount of animations for the battery, signal, etc...

if you're good with image editing, you can just add more ICS png's with with correct name... ie: stat_sys_battery_1.png, stat_sys_battery_2.png, stat_sys_battery_3.png, etc... just be sure the file names match the file names in the XML
[Android Themes] JOSEunit10:
Thanks the1dynasty.

I found the xml - EG: stat_sys_battery_charge and stat_sys_battery... now i understand better how this work :)

i guess i can replace the xml and icons from the cm7 ICS theme to my framework...

Hi fellow themers.

I have a question for everyone, I promise I have searched and most likely have not searched with the right parameters.

I know how to edit the images, and xml files and do this with apk multi tool.

I don't have error's but some of the apk's don't work after loading them. For example HTC_IME.apk.

So I know when i work with framework-res.apk, i decompile it with out dependencies. and don't sign it and it works. I do the same with com.htc.resources.apk and both seem to work.

Now if I edit Settings.apk do i decompile it with or woth out dependencies and do i need to sign it?

same for HTC_IME.apk, i think i remember decompiling with out dependencies and singing it, but it does not work.

So my question is this; is there a guide that shows what apk's need or don't need to be decompiled with or woth out dependencies. also what apk's need to be signed or not?

I know the rule of thumb is don't sign system apk's, but I would think HTC_IME.apk is a system apk and needs not be signed.

Thanks for any help, if you know of a guide that shows what apk's need to be signed and what apk's are decompiled with dependencies.

That would be awsome, I have searched and found no such guide.
[Android Themes] hulkhaugen:
I'm new to making themes, and i'm working on something, hehe. First, i started with modifying ElegantSteel, and tried to recompile it with apktool. It compiled, signed and installed as expected, but i got the message in Theme Chooser that something went wrong with the compiling. I realized that the mentioned theme was a bit sketchy put together, so i got myself another more professional theme, JAMT. I did the same her, replaced some .png's, modified some animations in the .xml's, and modified theme/author etc. but when i recompiled it, the output became jamt.apk, even though the folder i compiled was named WhiteHulk. Still, i compiled it, signed and installed. Everything went fine, but when i tried to apply it, i got the same problem as with ElegantSteel.

I think there might be something with my compiling procedure, but there might also be a slip regarding .png's/.xml's. This is how i do stuff

apktool if framework-res.apk (only did this once a while ago, don't get why it's relevant)
apktool d jamt.apk (now i mod .png's/.xml's etc, and leave everything else. Rename folder)
apktool b WhiteHulk (Which is the new folder name.)

I don't use Eclipse, only Notepad++ and Photoshop. Not sure which version of Eclipse to go with, or what the benefits of it is. I edit all the .xml's manually, dunno if there is a way to automate this? Eclipse?

I also tried to simply recompile JAMT without modifying anything, and that did apply from my Theme Chooser. If relevant, i run CM7 Nightly 27 on a LG Optimus Black P-970...

EDIT: Now i tried to only replace a few .png's in the theme, statusbar icons, and still it won't apply. Tried twice, second time i also deleted public.xml and resources.arsc. I don't get it :(
[Android Themes] WhiteBoy997:
To my knowledge of working with apks you do need to sign the systemui.apk or else your phone with give you fc pop ups and your status bar will disappear.

As for the list of apks that need to be signed I don't if their is one, but I would sign all apks just to be on the safe side.
[Android Themes] dreamsforgotten:
Here is the rule of thumb. Never sign a system app, and always flash just a modded system app you can't put a modded system app in a stock ROM and flash the md5 sum won't match the modded size of the apk.
[Android Themes] HackitZ:
Thanks for the reply.

Ok might sound silly but how can one tell if it's a system app or not?

I just edited settings.apk and did not sign it, it works and so far it's ok.

If i remeber correctly the HTC_IME.apk had to be signed for it to work.

So if it's from htc, se, samsung. can I asume if htc is in the name, or se it's a system app?

I will probably start a thread and post what i already know, maybe this can help some ones else.
[Android Themes] RavoxX:
Every app that is in system/app is a system app and has to be - like you said - unsigned.
[Android Themes] the1dynasty:
not sure if it's somewhere in this thread but perhaps this could be added to the beginning somewhere so that others don't have to ask...

in the "values" folder... can someone please explain what each of these xml's do in relation to the other xml files in the given apk? i know that changing stuff in some of these directly affects other xml's and i don't want to mess something up in the wrong one! tyia!!

Was wondering if anyone could help with a tiny issue I have run into. I've been trying to change the font color from black to white in all popups/lists as shown in the pictures. This is also based on a Samsung ROM if that helps.
[Android Themes] HackitZ:
I'm not sure what line it would be in the colors.xml in the values folder in the framework.res, but you could do a quick cook in the uot kitchen and change the popup color to white and then compare both colors.xml's and see what values changed.

Hope this helps, best of luck.

Hi again, I have another issue.

This is with the rosie.apk for sense 3.5.

I'm using apk multi tool, latest version.

i'm decompiling with dependencies using com.htc.resource.apk.

(i'm not trying to edit any m10 or smali)

I'm changing colors.xml. and some png's.

all goes through without any errors.

I then use adb to push to my htc raider.

and no images have changed and the new high light color has not changed.

is this an issue editing rosie from sense 3.5?

as I have edited rosie before and had no issue's, but it was a rosie from sense 3.0

Thanks for any guidance.
[Android Themes] tysj:
Thanks for the tip. But for some reason UOT gave me errors I didn't want to look in to :p

Anywho, ended up getting it to work by editing bright_foreground_light in colors.xml to the color I wanted and line 7 in primary_text_light.xml to the color that originally was. I could've just changed the one line in colors.xml but was causing trouble with text entry with white backgrounds.

my best guess is it's in framework-res.apk but i'm not sure which xml and which string?!!
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
The blue line should be "settings header", must be a 9.PNG file. The font is difficult, cause when you change the color, it is system wide.

send with telepathy
[Android Themes] the1dynasty:
yes, i WANT a system wide change in color :)
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
take a look into values folder of decompiled framework.

there must be at color.xml some lines with "#ffffffff", change that.

also you can take a look into styles.xml, there is the fontcolor discription of list view (settings, popups, etc)

and at framework-res.apk\res\color are some xml. but start with color.xml, then work throug the others to find a matching color setting
[Android Themes] dreamsforgotten:
Also check in the drawlables folder the one with the xmls in it I'll look into it tomorrow
[Android Themes] the1dynasty:
thanks for your responses... i was going to reply earlier but ADD got the best of me lol... i was able to modify all the fonts except for the white text in the settings folder... i also can't seem to figure out any of the places to edit the dialer (want to change to match my theme)... and there's also a ICS blue line at the top of some pages that i can't figure out either... i'm sure if i explore some more, i could find it... i just ran out of time b/c i'm out of town right now and can't look into this until Sunday :/

From themed system files to theme chooser apk

Hello, i was wondering is it possible in some easy way to convert themed system files to .apk working in theme chooser app. Example:

I have a Cm7 rom and ive themed; framework-res.apk, mms.apk, settings,apk, contacts.apk etc. And i was wondering if i could do a single theme file, having those modifications in it. Because my current rom gets updated i have to manually add every icon etc to the system and it would be kick-ass if i just had the "theme".apk file to choose in Theme chooser.
[Android Themes] TUN_SD:
You can use an existing theme. Decompile or extract with apkmanager,and replace with the modded files. Take care of the 9.PNG, compile or zip, sign, when no errors shown, it should be ready.
