If I figure out how to do all the things that I wanted in 0.7 then it should be done by the end of today... :/... as I have said before... please put up with my ultra slow internet connection... :p
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
hey ted, would it be too much of a hassle to put the htc pull down lockscreen on this theme, i tried to do it myself but adb isnt working for me and i dont wanna mess up my phone
[Android Themes] Ted417:
hmm.... I dont know if I should take that "find a lady friend and have some fun" as an insult......... lmao... jk... I want to finish work on this theme as much as possible before I get back into school... which start August 24th... 2 more weeks... ah... finally... but I promise that I wont abandon you guys once I'm back :)... I learned so quickly about rooting and stuff during this summer... I started theming July 18th(the clocks), and started to work on this theme July 28th, and look at my progress!... lets see what else I'll be able to do in the next 2 weeks... :)
[Android Themes] Ted417:
how can I put that in? If you can give me a link please do! :)

[Android Themes] blacjac17:
Lets just say i really want this lockscreen, so if you make it a reality i wouldn't mind donating some money to the cause :)...like right now lol
[Android Themes] sha.goyjo:
Hate to break your heart man but I don't think that's possible on a CM build. His framework won't support the HTC pull down lockscreen.
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
got dammnit, i figured thats why adb wasnt working for me, all i can do now is see if ted can make it work then
[Android Themes] Ted417:
thats for skinning hero roms... BUT!!!... I'm slowly learning how to do hex edits... which will make me be able to do professional lock screens... :)... and it'll take a while... so be patient... :)
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
iite cool no prob
[Android Themes] sha.goyjo:
Yeah, that's not saying something can't be made to LOOK like the htc lockscreen. You just can't use the ACTUAL htc Lockscreen.
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
i just want a pull down lock screen lol Thats it, the rom is perfect, it just needs that lock screen to be perfecTION
[Android Themes] jackkerouac:
Hey - if you've already got a lady friend (or male friend - I don't judge!) then that's even better! Take her out to dinner and charm her with talk of coding Android themes for the masses!
[Android Themes] Ted417:
roflmao... actually... I have no girlfriend... I'm only looking for serious relationships... :D... I don't want to date a w-h-o-r-e... :/... only serious relationships... hear that ladies? I'm free!... lmao... :D
[Android Themes] NguyenHuu:
that pull down lock screen is built into the core of htc hero rom. it's not something you can just wip up haha. you cant just do that without a lot of complicated hard coding. stuff that looks simple to us, on the development end, often requires a lot of coding.
[Android Themes] sha.goyjo:
I feel the need to say that, as I type this, my fiancee is sitting across from me re-compiling the new code for PCmanFM with custom icon names....

Sometimes dinner just takes away from the moment.
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
so your saying its impossibe for this theme and rom
[Android Themes] Ted417:
its not impossible... but its impossible to port that lockscreen to CyanMod... the only way is for someone to make one similar to it
[Android Themes] sha.goyjo:
Could we simulate it by way of optical lllusion? Maybe using stericson's lockscreen hack? or something like it?
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
yea i mean the whole process of pulling the lockscreen down is mainly what i want, the notifications the hero lock screen gives you isnt that important to me, just the sliding down factor
[Android Themes] sha.goyjo:
I guess you miss the point. We can't actually do that....but we MIGHT be able to change the background of the notification panel AND set it as open by default when the screen is locked. Maybe. If we could, we would be able to kinda simulate the hero lockscreen. It's mostly an idle thought, but it could work.
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
lol my bad, im not a dev so i wouldn't know the things you could do and couldn't do :(, but having something similar or innovative is better then nothing at all so im with you, it would definitely set TED's theme apart from the rest (if it hasn't already lol)
[Android Themes] Ted417:
Ok... do you people want me to remove about 80% of the wallpapers to reduce the size of the launcher.apk?... might also increase speed...
[Android Themes] eessel:
yeah...i wouldn't mind. Speed is important to me, and just a few wallpapers gone to increase speed to me seems like a good trade. Thanks. And lookin' forward to flashin' .7 on 3.9.8! :)
[Android Themes] Anartic:
I like the wallpapers you have, but if you decide to take them out, do you think you can provide us a link to the images or something? Just so we can throw it on our SD cards, that would be nice :)
[Android Themes] Ted417:
Yeah... I'll do that :)
[Android Themes] NguyenHuu:
definitely do that! i use my own wallpapers anyways. but yeah include a link to download the wallpapers for others to pop on their sd cards.
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
.7 tonight ?? :)
[Android Themes] Ted417:
Yes... 0.7 tonight... but it might not have white text in the music widget... its alot harder than I suspected...
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
What the changelog for .7
[Android Themes] Ted417:
Manup is gonna help me out with the white font on the music widget so its possible... haha...

changelog

-white font in music widget

-white font on black background when you pull down status bar

-SPEED!!! its alot faster now with alot less wallpapers

-smallest update size so far... about 7 1/2 megs in size

-Radio buttons are fixed

-calendar looks different(not hero styled but still)

-popup looks are different...

I'll post up screenies of these things once I finish the update :)
[Android Themes] eessel:
Cant wait! :)
[Android Themes] Chosen_on184:
Hmmm i might be forced to update to 3.9.7 to get this great theme ... I love the stability of 3.6 but im getting left behind in all the updates or roms and releases and this i will not can not let happen.. So off to flash 3.9.7 and wait for you to drop that stimulus package * your theme * :D
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
Will we hav3 to wipe for .7 since its made for cyanogen 3.9.8
[Android Themes] Ted417:
NO DONT!... I'm almost done with the update for 3.9.8! :)

And if Cyan doesnt make an update tommorow(I was planning to port my theme to 3.6.8.1 today) I WILL port my theme to 3.6.8.1... tommorow...
[Android Themes] NguyenHuu:
CM just released 3.9.9 the last stable version before 4.0!!
[Android Themes] Ted417:
W

T

F

... oh well... I'm gonna release my theme for 3.9.8 right now(I already have it uploaded to 4shared -_-)... just give me a few minutes... and I'll start working on 3.9.9 immediatly right after I post up the theme
[Android Themes] NguyenHuu:
you are great! thanks. 3.9.9 fixed bugs that were in .8, so it's good to update.
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
i really appreciate what you put in ted but i think you should just wait for 4.0 instead of 3.9.9, dont stress yaself lol
[Android Themes] Ted417:
nah... I think that it'll take a while before Cyan releases 4.0... because I bet he wants it to be as STABLE as a horse's stable... if that makes any sence... lol

btw... udpated my theme to 3.9.8... will have my theme ready for 3.9.9 tonight... or tommorow morning :D
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
yea your prob right lol this theme is nice mannnnn!!!!! im lovin the pop-ups :)
[Android Themes] BigWorldJust:
Nice theme, looks great :D.
[Android Themes] Ted417:
the pop-ups arent mine (*whispering*they are from the smorg theme of JonnyBueno)... dont know why he doesnt want me to give him credit... so instead of giving him credit... I just say that I stole it... look at the top of the first post of this thread :)
[Android Themes] jackkerouac:
Just install 3.9.8 and .7 with the music replacement. Everything went perfectly and the new additions to the theme look great. I especially like what you did with the dialogue boxes. :)
[Android Themes] NguyenHuu:
there are bugs in 3.9.9!! cyanogen is gonna release a 3.9.9.1 later, so hold off on theming ted
[Android Themes] jackkerouac:
Apparently the camera doesn't work, audiohack doesn't work, etc., etc., so you may want to wait until 3.9.9.1 or even 4.0.

I think I am going to skip 3.9.9 this time around.
[Android Themes] Ted417:
whew... was barely gonna start downloading the theme template... lol......... I bet that Cyan will start releasing 3.9.9.2 then up until 3.9.9.9.9.9.9.9.9.9.9.9 and then he'll release 4.0 O_O......... lmao... its a possibility... :D
[Android Themes] blacjac17:
he just released 3.9.9.1 haha this guy cant be human!!! told ya ted, just betta wait for 4.0, he's had 3 versions in half an hour!!Insane lol
[Android Themes] NguyenHuu:
haha he just released 3.9.9.1, says all is well again. bugs before was from something with SD i duno. so you can risk it and start porting now or just wait a day or two to see if anymore bugs are found.
[Android Themes] Charrion:
Calendar Opacity

0.7 looks great Ted. Just one suggestion for 0.8, could you increase the opacity of the background for the calendar widget?

The text is a little difficult to read against dark wallpapers and nearly invisible with your blue wallpaper (my favorite, btw).
[Android Themes] Ted417:
SCREW YOU CYAN!... messing with us themers >:(... lol... jk cyan... you know we love you......... in a not gay way :p
[Android Themes] Ted417:
sure will do! :)...
[Android Themes] BigWorldJust:
This is definitely one of the best Hero themes now :D.
[Android Themes] Charrion:
Thanks man, I'll be sending a donation your way :D
[Android Themes] Ted417:
yesssss.... :D:D:D

BTW... I'm gonna update my theme tomorrow to see what else that rascal Cyan will come up with ;)

EDIT: added another screenshot... :)
[Android Themes] jonnybueno:
Ted!!!! Looking good!
[Android Themes] momentarylapseofreason:
Grrrrr..... I updated before your theme was ready
[Android Themes] s15274n:
Ted, blown away by your theme. I currently have open home/dark skin and you embarrass it. I am new to root, just loaded cyanogens stable build 3.6.8.1, can I d/load your theme on this build? I saw your post about porting to it.. not sure what that means. Beautiful work, hope to donate.
[Android Themes] Ted417:
not yet... wait until I release one for 3.6.8.1... as long as SOMEBODY!!! doesnt keep on updating his build!!!... lol

muchas gracias :)

Ha Ha! lol jk... roflmao @ the smiley... or should I say pissed-offey... not funny I know -_-... lol, Gnight people! I'll be waking up in about 8-9 hours :)
[Android Themes] B-man007:
4.0 is around the corner, just wait for it. if it has no major bugs, 3.9.9.1 will be the 4.0 stable release according to his twitter

btw the theme looks exactly how i wanted it when i pm'ed you for help :P

great job man
[Android Themes] Deadbolt:
Is there any way to get a screenshot of the calendar? Im eager to see what it looks like.

Here's something else you may be able to add to your theme that can just clean it up a bit. It's not something many people pay attention to i dont think, but it looks good, is the slide down tab. Here's a screen shot of what im talking about at the bottom.

I'm totally looking forward to flashing your theme this weekend. Real nice job so far!
[Android Themes] Anartic:
Hey, just wanted to let you know that when you install the HTC music app it changes the small little icon in the corner of your phone when music is playing.

It's not a huge huge problem, but just wondering if you would know how to change it so it's the same as the one that comes with your theme.

Also the text for the music player is pretty dark when you pull it down.

I'm not sure if that part is because of the app or your theme, but just letting you know.

Here's a pic to show you the problems I found
[Android Themes] devsk:
Can we add some white/silver goodness with some transparency to the launcher like in the screenshot below?
[Android Themes] Ted417:
The text is actually a problem that still hasnt been figured out for HTC Music... look at Smorg's, and Dark Hero... and you'll see that they have the same problem... and I'll change the icon in the 3.9.9.whatever release... :p

lol... thats not hero styled... look at the title of this thread "Teds Hero Theme" as in Hero-ish theme... :D

awesome :)

Haha... actually... the screenshot is there... BUT!... the calendar is so transparent that its nearly invisible O_O... I'm serious... haha... look carefully at the screenshot that has a dialer shortcut and those quick dials to my dad, mom, and my dad's G1... look at it carefully... I'm gonna make it less transparent in my 0.8 release :)

OK!... another poll... Cyan removed the Advanced launcher in his 3.9.9.whatever release... should I still keep the advanced launcher?... or should I just use the regular launcher that Cyan provided in his Theme template?... that is the question :D
[Android Themes] Fingerlickin:
I vote for sticking with whatever Cyan chooses.
[Android Themes] Ted417:
I second on that :)
[Android Themes] s15274n:
I would do whatever CYAN does... but I know NOTHING about this. I'm just under the impression if he does it, everyone should, haha.
[Android Themes] Fingerlickin:
wow sounds like I'm not the only one that prays to the almighty Cyan at the foot of my bed at night.... "Cyan, please bless my G1 with the wisdom and power to...."
[Android Themes] Charrion:
I'll add another vote for the old launcher, at least until they stabilize the advanced launcher. But then, I never used the submenus and stuck with the five page layout. Besides, Cyan has provided the advanced launcher as a separate download in his thread for people who really want it.
[Android Themes] sha.goyjo:
The problem is that you'd have to reskin the advanced launcher manually. Beyond most people.
[Android Themes] Charrion:
Yeah, just realized that after I pushed the old launcher back onto my phone. :(

Hey Ted, depending on which launcher you decide to go with, could you make available a skinned version of the alternate? That way people can choose whichever launcher they prefer.
[Android Themes] Ted417:
sure! nice idea... :)
[Android Themes] Fingerlickin:
Hey Ted,

How would I go about changing the button background color for the ic_menu icons? I've redone all of the ic_menu icons to light green, now I just need to figure out how to change the background to black.
[Android Themes] Ted417:
I think that your talking about menu_background_fill_parent_width.9.png... dont edit that one as long as you know how to edit .9.png's
[Android Themes] Chosen_on184:
Hopefully cyan can take a beer break from long enough so ted can port this awesomeness he calls a theme ova to 3.6.8.1 before 4.0 drops .....Once 4.0 drops ima update cuz if its one thing i like and that's not having to deal with force closes. Waits for the news that its been ported later tonight when i check back *crosses fingers and toes*:D
[Android Themes] Fingerlickin:
That doesn't look like it and I need to read the guild on the .9.png files anyways. I think it might be blank_tile.png, at least it looks like it anyway.
[Android Themes] Ted417:
nope... that one is used in Google Maps when the surface of earth is loading... I'm 100% sure its menu_background_fill_parent_width.9.png... trust me... it is :)... lol...
[Android Themes] OFinch:
Hey ted, how is the theme coming along for the new update cyanogen did?
[Android Themes] Fingerlickin:
ah see, the "I think" part got me. Now the 100% part take away all doubt.
[Android Themes] Fingerlickin:
Yea I just looked at the .9.png guide. I think I'll leave the Themes to you. I don't have that much patience. Kudos for the work, at least now I understand that it isn't as easy as I thought.
[Android Themes] Ted417:
pretty good... It's gonna be 0.8... but its not gonna be much of a difference than 0.7... :)
[Android Themes] Ted417:
lol... at least a new person sees how hard it is to theme... now I just need several thousand more :P
[Android Themes] eessel:
is the new theme(0.8) gonna be done by today/end of or something? And I guess when cyanogen gets busy, you get busy as well. But you do a good job trying to cater to the needs of everyone and give 'em all what they want. Good job! Right now i'm gonna stick with 3.9.8 until you release the 0.8 update for cyanogen 3.9.9.1. Keep it up, Kid! :)
[Android Themes] big nu:
that wall

Hey ted where can i get that wall from?

:cool:
[Android Themes] Charrion:
That's the problem, you make it look easy with your mad skillz ;)
[Android Themes] Ted417:
hehe... you can get it from Manup... :)
[Android Themes] BigWorldJust:
Hey Ted you gonna be updating it for 3.9.9.1?
[Android Themes] devsk:
did you even bother looking at the screenshot before laughing out loud...that's a screenshot from a Hero theme. All I asked was if you could make the color of your launcher silvery white like in the screenshot. If you can't even change the color and/or transparency without writing new java code, then forget it.
[Android Themes] Ted417:
:/... I can change it... but if I made a change like that... lots of people wont want or like it... I have made a mistake before(lol... look at my v0.3 of my theme) and I dont want to make another again... :p... sorry...

yeah... I'm porting it right now :)
[Android Themes] BigWorldJust:
Awesome can't wait for the update.
[Android Themes] Ted417:
Yeah me too! Wonder when I'm gonna finish it... hope it'll be soon! ;) lol
[Android Themes] BigWorldJust:
LoL, me too :D.
[Android Themes] OFinch:
yea I am going to flash cyanogenMod 3.9.9.1 once you get that done. keep up the good work ted.
[Android Themes] Deadbolt:
Ooooh, haha, you tweaked the calendar widget. I was referring to the actual calendar with all of the dates in the month to look more like Hero with the black background and all of that good stuff. I can post up the picture if you want for reference. Any way that can be done?
[Android Themes] Ted417:
hmmm... it might just be possible... but not sure... if its possible... that will have to wait till v0.9 :D
[Android Themes] Deadbolt:
I dunno if it's as easy as it sounds but perhaps a simple skin could suffice for the calendar? Anyways, looking forward to the improvements you'll be making in the theme. Good luck dood!
[Android Themes] Ted417:
my update will be up by the end of tonight... just made some nice improvements to the calendar widget... :)... and some other stuff I forgot -_-... lol
[Android Themes] Anartic:
Awesome, now that I know that it'll be up within today I can go ahead and flash Cyan's new rom without having to go with the original skin for too long. :D

Edit: cyan just came out with a new update, its 3.9.10, so when can we expect the theme to be ported over to that? lol jk
[Android Themes] Fingerlickin:
IMO Ignore 3.9.10, release 3.9.9.1 and take your time on .10 cause it doesn't look that important.
[Android Themes] zgmf-x322a:
will u add HTC music into ur theme?
[Android Themes] Anartic:
He's got the download file for the HTC Music under his screen shots, he's not gonna include it in the actual theme itself since its slow, but it's there.
[Android Themes] Chosen_on184:
to install is it the same as a simple flash .. change the zip file to update and just flash ?
[Android Themes] Ted417:
Dammit Cyan... I'm gonna hunt you down... lol... I'll release it for 3.9.9.1 in a while... a looooong while but not too long... haha... still gotta flash and stuff to see if it works :)... gotta work on it pronto
[Android Themes] Anartic:
Yup, just don't have a music widget on your homescreen though.
[Android Themes] Fingerlickin:
Hey Ted,

You should PM Cyan and ask him for a list of apk's he changed from .9 to .10

It may only be a couple and make your job alot easier.
[Android Themes] Ted417:
I've PM'ed him before... never ever never never ever ever ever got a reply :/
[Android Themes] momentarylapseofreason:
wooooohooooooo

Hmmm.. perhaps you should port to...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=539744

GRRR... he's updating so much it's hard to keep up! lol
[Android Themes] Chosen_on184:
well updated to 3.9.9.1 .... read that it should be ported before 12 so since i gotta leave at 4:30 ill check back at 3:30 see if its up.... *hint hint* have a good night folks
[Android Themes] jonnybueno:
If you ever get a reply, please let me know as well.... ehhhh... sick of porting.
[Android Themes] zelrikriando:
Does it work on the ROGERS build of cyanogen (v3.9.9.1)?

thanks
[Android Themes] Noirlecroi:
Dude, dont want to be a fan boy, but this theme is HOT! Im p*ssed at myself for not finding it earlier....i can delete open home and freshface.......My G1 is blazing just like i had hoped it would when I started with all these mods.....I've read about how it is unlikely, but if someone could make a hero-like contact widget, and I'd be done.....Great work!!!!
[Android Themes] Ted417:
Will do! :)

I have no idea... and I dont think you should try it out... :/... who the hell knows what can happen... you can end up with a $180 brick O_O... lol... just dont try to do anything stupid like flashing this on your phone *wink wink* :D

heh... thanks!...

BTW people... my v0.8 is not gonna include lots of new things...

changelog

-new boot screen :)

-calendar widget looks more heroish(but not exactly like hero)

-fixed radio button that looked different(look at my screenshot)

-ported to 3.9.9.1(screw 3.9.10(I'm still gonna port it tommorow... lol) :D
[Android Themes] Charrion:
If you've followed the rooting instructions in haykuro's thread here you can use the regular CM roms and then feel free to use Ted's theme.
[Android Themes] Charrion:
Will it be a variation on CM's new boot screen (wink, wink)?
[Android Themes] Ted417:
sadly no... lol... I gust found this neato lil' png on the web and had to put it in :D

and thanks for clearing that up for me! :)
[Android Themes] Charrion:
OK, now I'm curious. :rolleyes:

No problem, I wasn't exactly sure what he meant since I don't recall seeing a CM rom made specifically for Rogers phones, especially experimental ones, so that was the safest answer I could come up with.
[Android Themes] momentarylapseofreason:
So I might have missed it but are you porting for 3.9.9.1 or 10? Either way, I will give up 10 if it means having this theme and they (your theme and 10) are incompatible.
[Android Themes] Ted417:
just posted up my update to 3.9.9.1 sorry guys... stupid G1 kept on staying on GPRS... I'm tethering off of my phone due to me not having wifi where I live... sucks living in the boonies -_-
[Android Themes] momentarylapseofreason:
Wish me luck! Applying to 3.9.9.10
[Android Themes] Ted417:
wait what? 3.9.9.10?... lol... thats not right... you mean 3.9.9.1? or 3.9.10?... lol
[Android Themes] momentarylapseofreason:
WHOOPS! 3.9.10.

Confirmed working flawlessly. Dig the bikes man!
[Android Themes] Ted417:
added link to HTC music :)
[Android Themes] Anartic:
Hey Ted, are the Hero ring tones and notifications always the same? I just want to know so I can just save it on my desktop instead of downloading them every time there's an update :P
[Android Themes] Ted417:
yes... they are the same... and will always be the same... lol :)... unless Cyan changes where the ringtones should be in his rom :/...

OH!... and btw(for all you awesome peoplez) who the hell keeps on downloading my v0.2 update of my theme? lol... kinda weird... cuz on my 4shared there was 111 downloads yesterday of that version... now theres 117 :confused:
[Android Themes] momentarylapseofreason:
For a 16 year old brat... you do damned nice work :)

Keep your grades up in HS bro.. You could be the next Mitnick (hopefully without the jail time)
[Android Themes] Ted417:
Brat?... I'm as mature as 75% of the 30 year olds that you know... lol

EDIT:

Ok... I'm already going to sleep people... tommorow I will:

-update my theme to cyans 3.9.10 template(or any other template if he comes up with something else)

-post up the skinned Modified Launcher(for you people that want more or less than 5 screens)

-post up a zip that has the hero wallpapers...

Gnight people!!! :)
