messaging app removed???

I'm not sure how it happened but I'll tell you what I did for the problem to occure.

I was playing with some themes... going from GlossSuite with lock screen Aero Black to Aero Blue to Aero Grey then back to GlossSuite w/lock screen and I noticed that I didn't have my messaging icon on there. I touched the icon (or the generic system icon) and it says that it wasn't installed. So I rebooted. Same thing. I rebooted in safe mode... same. Nothing. No messaging app. So I went to Pud's Vista and then I had it again. I then went back to GlossSuite w/lock and it's still there.

So somehow from going from the Aero themes to GlossSuite my app was removed or something.

Everything is working fine now and I always do backups before I do anything... but maybe it was just a freak occurance or perhaps some kind of glitch. Either way I figured I would pass on what happened.

Anyone else have anything like this happen before?

[Android Themes] Party_Grunt:
Does anyone know if it's possible to get / install those icons without open home full or better cut? (like they are in an update.zip).
[Android Themes] :
Here's how I did it:

1. Copy all of the .apk files for the market apps that I use to the computer

2. Unpack the .apk files and look in the res -> drawable folder to find the main app icon

3. Use that icon with the .psd file to make a new icon

4. Use Better Cut to apply the new icon to the app shortcut on the home screen

I don't think it's possible to do this without Better Cut or without modifying the theme itself.

I really appreciate Moon making the .psd file available, this means we can easily make new icons that blend with the theme.
[Android Themes] Party_Grunt:
Thanks for the info but unfortunatly I don't have better cut. I'll just use the normal ones unless a special version of theme comes out with them already in it.

On a related note, the theme is excelent, only problem for me is that the battery bar doesn't turn red when the batter is very low (<15%).
[Android Themes] chrisag92:
cant wait to see multi colors of this theme

personally a white version :cool:
[Android Themes] :
Making new icons for the GlossSuite theme

Ok, I have had some folks PM me about how I created the icons in my screenshot. So, I am posting this short tutorial along with the icon templates.

I use Linux so I use The GIMP for image editing but some folks use Photoshop so I have attached files and instructions for both:

1. Download the icon-template.zip file that appears in the attachment for this post

2. Unpack the icon-template.zip file and:

* open the icon_template.psd file in Photoshop, or

* open the icon_template.xcf file in The GIMP

3. Find an icon you want to use but keep in mind you will need to resize your desired icon to 40x40 so try to find one as close to those dimensions as possible. You can also import a .svg file into The GIMP but not sure about Photoshop

4. Open your desired icon in either Photoshop or The GIMP

5. Resize (if needed) the desired icon to 40x40 and copy it to the clipboard (GIMP has its own clipboard)

6. Go back to the icon-template and paste your desired icon (resized) into the "glyph" layer of the template

7. Make any final adjustments desired and "Save As" the newly created icon with a new name

I have found that you can also unpack any app .apk file, go into the res -> drawable folder and look for the app's default icon and use that instead of searching for a desired icon - this is how I did it for my screenshot (notice the Steel icon).

That should be it. You can now transfer your new icon to your g1 and use it with Better Cut or other method to give all home screen icons a consistent appearance.

am i the only one that doesnt have a wifi icon? ive flashed both versions a few times. all i have is a tiny dot.
[Android Themes] Mi|enko:
The tiny dot means that your wifi signal's low. It'll grow as the signal does.
[Android Themes] kp126:
i think this theme would be perfect if the applications tab on the bottom was a little more like the AERO theme in which the tab is a bit transparent
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
I would also like a 5.01G version.

That's the only downside of the rom... after having themes... I just can't bare to go back to normal. It's almost like my phone is nude without a theme! ;)
[Android Themes] question.com:
that dot has never moved. i could be standing right next to my wireless n router, and it stays the same. ohwell, ill deal with it. since this is my fav theme.

Extra Apps

I edited some apps to match the Gloss Suite theme. Must have WinRar to extract. These are the whole apk files, all free, no paid apps.

[Android Themes] AroundTheWorld:
Some problems...

1. Some of those apk's dont work and simiply won't install

2. Some apps like BetterCut, Screenshot, and Advanced Task Manager are paid apps... just wanted to give you a heads-up
[Android Themes] creid2352:
Question, before installing my modded version did you uninstall the previous version on your phone? Screenshot is the first version before it was paid. I will remove ATM and Bettercut. Thx

5.0.2Hr3 Apps to SD Gloss Suite

So after several requests and inquiries I got impatient and made my own.

It's the first custom that I have done so please forgive me if I missed something. I'm using it now and I think it's a good start. Let me know what you think. This is just the status bar and some tabs and such. I suggest you use openhome, dxtop, ahome or whatever to substitute for your theme needs.

Also... this is the FULL 5.0.2Hr3 Apps to SD by Haykuro (the man!) so it'll require a wipe.

Enjoy!

Link to GlossSuite 5.0.3Hr3
[Android Themes] Henchman:
If I already have H5.02R3 will I still need to do a wipe?
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
Hmmmm... I'm not sure. It'll probably wipe it but I don't know for sure because I went from RC33. I never wanted to go to a Haykuro build because the lack of themes. Give it a try and let us know.
[Android Themes] Henchman:
Yes it did wipe. But it works and looks great.

I did discover that if you already have apps on WE, you can run the appstosd script,or the appstosd app, then reboot your phone and all your apps are still there.

So you don't have to reload everything.
[Android Themes] redeyes717:
sad to say that some of us can't use the phone after flashing this mod :mad::confused:

I had the 5.0.2Hr3 appto SD before and no issues with the com.android.phone app.

now, wifi, bluetooth work fine.. but no calls can be sent or received.

everything else works fine!!

any suggestion?
[Android Themes] Henchman:
Yep, I too could not send or receive phone calls.

I've given up on the Haykuro thing now anyway.

I'll wait for the official update.

The browser was very slow.

I found the overall performance to be slower at this point.

And the wifi connection was abysmally bad.

Just too frustrating.

Haven't heard of this. Try wiping your phone and pushing fresh updates onto it.

I have been working on an OFFICIAL theme of GlossSuite for Dude's 1.5. It will have a few updates that the RC33 version doesn't have.

[Android Themes] MOONSSPOON:
I'm not sure if I will be able to do this, but I will definitely look into it!

Unfortunately I have not. This is the current downfall of my theme at the moment. I am researching my options and possibilities, whether it be changing the text color, or adjusting the status bar so that the black text is readable. Hopefully I will be able to change the text color.

Thank you! I have some ideas for the clock that should turn out great, I'll post it up once I get somewhere with it!

I will not be releasing until I am completely satisfied with my results.

I have been entertaining ideas of different styled shortcuts, but regardless, you will have the option of excluding them if you desire.

See above.

Feel free to PM me. The menu tab has a glow when selected/pressed.

I will try out different fonts (not cartoon fonts), but I will more than likely stick with the original font, since it will appeal to more people.

You will have the option to exclude the icons.

I will be trying out different styles for the status icons. I will keep you all updated on what I end up with.

Thanks for your questions/comments, keep them coming!

Moonsspoon,

Here's a link to a thread about changing the clock color. I don't think it's possible as of yet. You might have to change the bar color to something more grayish. Or maybe you could just work your gloss in such a way as to make the black clock more visible.

crazy thinking here...

...you should leave the clock black and unreadable...at least in one variant of your release, I have been kind of looking for an excuse to use the analog clock...but think it looks pretty silly with two clocks on the screen :)
[Android Themes] Sistum Id:
If you cant release it black because of the clock in the tool bar than I would say at least release a white version. This is like the Mercedes-Benz of themes and just like a Benz, black or white and they still look classy.

imo. the clock border should be thinner. makes it more elegant and bigger. the thick border makes it look cheap. it should also have a glass glow across it. or something to make it glossy.. my .02

I agree on the border, I'll see what I can do! Edit: Updated to your suggestions! Thanks!

In the screenshot the hands look a little clunky and cheap as well, but on the phone they look perfect. I'm going to keep them as they are, and you'll just have to trust me. =)

Isn't the notification hard to read the time? and so on?

Can't you change the time to white or red.....red is possible, instead leaving it black?
[Android Themes] dom2684:
i was under the impression that the font color cannot be changed:confused:
[Android Themes] MOONSSPOON:
It is hard to read, yes. It is massively disappointing for me, yes.

At the moment, I PERSONALLY am unable to change the time color. However, I am hoping that another developer will be able to assist me in this.

Red is currently possible.
[Android Themes] golferguy17:
Ok so I am by no means a developer or have any sense of what it would take to do this or if it is even possible, that being said: Could you make it so that instead of changing the font color, because that seems hard to do, make it so it has a white outline? I know it would be possible if the time didn't ever change and you could just add it to the notification tab haha but i'm not so sure if its possible to make the outline change when the time changes... Just a thought!

Theme looks awesome!!!!
[Android Themes] MOONSSPOON:
Unfortunately it is not possible to add an outline to the text itself. Adding a basic pseudo outline on the notifications bar is possible, but when the screen is open (and the phone switches to landscape mode), it would no longer look correct.

Stubborn XML's..... :mad:
