does anyone know if advanced launcher works for 4.2.6

and if it does, can i just flash this and it works... or do i need to install advanced launcher first, then run this theme update... thanks in advance.

oh and i am on a merlot mt3g 32b
[Android Themes] awdlexusis:
wow really loving this theme...best ive had in a while, any plans on doing it in black and white?? or adding droid 2.0 lockscreen? thanks again
[Android Themes] icegad:
updated locksreen for 426 is out:D
[Android Themes] awdlexusis:
could you add color to google maps icon to match theme?
[Android Themes] Michaelr219:
pleeeease lol!!!
[Android Themes] brew1brew:
about the "New Google Maps Updated included", what if I already had the new Maps with Nav installed from the market? Would that be a "no change" for me?

by the way, GREAT THEME!! and thanks for the instructions on installing the clock weather widget.
[Android Themes] myronic:
Hey Mez, been using this theme exclusively for a while, and want to say it's the best one out there for sure. Just wanted to report that my SD card reports as corrupted, even though CM 4.2.6 was fine. Have tried all the usual fixes and all SD apps still seem to work fine.

Any ideas on what might be going on?
[Android Themes] opasha:
yeah they will work fine. however, you probably unplugged your USB without unmounting or something. that sometimes happens and corrupts the SD card because it doesn't prepare properly. everything will work but it will give you errors later for roms or themes for example "Failure at Line 81...etc etc." Your best fix is to copy your stuff to your computer from your sdcard and then repartition your sdcard again so it's fresh.
[Android Themes] NoNaym:
Dunno if it has been reported, but I've got 2.6 a1 blue and the dialer keypad looks a little funny... They look as if each key is supposed to be within its own border but the actual key image goes beyond each border. Anybody else notice this? Is it another intentional change? Just thought I'd mention it.
[Android Themes] Michaelr219:
yea, i have red... and it does this too... opasha gave me a copy of his red dialer and red keyboard to match the theme... and it still does the same thing. i think it might have something to do with the template used :/

very small thing to deal with, but def. noticable
[Android Themes] opasha:
yeah i just looked through the files and redid the dialer again using all the old images. i obviously had to use his contacts.apk in order to do the dialer edit so that it worked properly for the 426 theme. there's definitely something wrong in the xml file associated with the dialer numbers or some error similar to that. sir mez has better knowledge of the issue than i do. the dialer images that are showing up creating full squares are supposed to be transparent, but they are not for some reason and generally xml files deal with what is solid and what is transparent in color. hopefully he finds the issue for you guys :). otherwise we could just port the old phone and contacts apks, but i do not know how important those two are to the new 426 and if changes were made to them by cyan specifically.
[Android Themes] sir*mez:
wow i havent been on here for a while... Sorry guys, real life owns!!!

yea i see that ill check this out.

yea, i will be changing this in the next update.

yea, i will be changing this in the next update. ive changed the buttons because i didnt like them but i can bring it back if its really wanted back.

no i didnt. JSon file is updated and running. im seeing 2.6 on my phone.

sure, i can add color if wanted.

read full entire first post. you will find out why there is no wallpapers.

havent tried it yet but it should work.

im adding more color i just dont know when. work is getting the better of me right now. no 2.0 lockscreen tho. i tried it didnt like it. it felt fake.

thank you for the update.

sure, i can add color if wanted.

nope no change will happen. thank you for reading cause not a lot of people do that... lol.

hhhmmm, thats weird cause i dont have that problem. i do suggest to backup everything that you have on both partitions and start brand new because im use you dont want to lose everything. its a warning sign that something got corrupted.

i will be checking this out and fix for next update.

update: im sorry for the lack of updates guys/gals. it is very difficult at the moment to juggle an upcoming baby, work and android. i am trying to figure everything out and apply a schedule that will allow me to work with everything i have coming ahead. thank you for your patients and thanks for using my theme.

update #2: i will be trying to work on an update for the stericson lockscreen tomorrow. once again thank you for your patients and thanks for using my theme.
[Android Themes] oMszKikiIzWavyo:
AWWW!!!, Congratulations On The Upcoming Baby. You Have More Important Things To Do, So Take Your Time, We As The People Can Wait. Im Very Happy For You!!!

Continue Doing Your Responsibilities And Once Your Ready To Come Back On The Android Scene, I Know You'll Inform Us.

Once Again Congratulations And Keep Up The Tremendous Work
[Android Themes] opasha:
@sir*mez- you didn't mess anything up with the dialer. i just copied over the contacts and phone apks from cyan's rom directly and edited the png's. the same issue occurred. so i believe it's safe to say that cyan forgot something or his update somehow makes the drawable-finger files in those two apks screwy. i'm not too sure where the error lies, but like i said it looks like a transparency issue. i know how colorchange works now with those types of hex numbers, but direct xml files seem a bit confusing to me. hope you can figure it out, otherwise hit cyan up :).
[Android Themes] jakal323:
Re: incoming young one vs. work vs. hobbies.

Congratulations on the new incoming addition. Come back whenever you're ready. We'll be happy to have you back as active as you are, but I reckon most will be happier to hear that you've got a healthy child and work is good.
[Android Themes] opasha:
i found and fixed the three images that were causing the messed up dialer! sir*mez hit me up when you see this :)
[Android Themes] Michaelr219:
hey, can you pm me the fix? or post?

[Android Themes] techbeck:

[Android Themes] legend221:
Using the theme on my below specs. Working perfectly til now, I'm coming from a gC***** theme and I am very impressed.

Much respect to the MAN that created this theme, thank you and I am happy to see you update frequently so it wont fall with the rest of the themes on the forum.
[Android Themes] legend221:
Just an FYI, this will reinstall the older Google Maps in case you updated it to 3.2.1. with Nav

D/L latest Google Maps (link below), put on root of sd card and follow the directions from post below as well in case you have terminal window app (Cyanogen Builds)

green icons

i edited some icons for sir*mez's green theme (he already has some in his but i added similar ones with brighter saturation so they match that highlight menu color he has). feel free to use them with bettercut or replace them if you know how to sign themes. sir*mez, feel free to use these icons. i tried to match your color as best as i could. enjoy! :D

Seems like I forgot to put the new dialer in the stericson update. a2.1 will be up in a few minutes. Sorry about that, not in tip top shape.

[Android Themes] bolmedias:
Just wondering, the screenshots contain an icon with the label 'Twidroid'. I've never seen that icon before. Is it contained within the theme itself, or did you BetterCut it in afterwards or something like that?
[Android Themes] sir*mez:
I do not provide market apps. That is a bettercut icon. I knew I was gonna get asked about that icon, I should of just blurred it.
[Android Themes] bolmedias:
Sorry for asking then :P

It's just a cool icon, that's all.
[Android Themes] sir*mez:
The icon pack is called Picnic on the market. Sorry if I sounded harsh on my response, I didn't mean for it to come out that way.

[Android Themes] SickOfItAll:
Wanted to post about a couple of issues I've had after installing the latest update.

1) Home screen icons all disappear after closing an app. Seems to be random when it happens, but it's happening on a regular basis now.

2) When I run fix_permissions, it complains about not being able to locate the BeautifulWidgets app. This is odd because I've never purchased or installed that app. The fun part is that I decided to go ahead and try BeautifulWidgets out, but when it attempts to install from the Market it complains that the version is not compatible with this update. I know you use this widget on your phone, so is it possible that some setting from your phone got slipped into the theme that makes it think this app should already be installed?

And this last one isn't an issue, just some feedback or a request of sorts. The new Power widget has a gradient background on it, which is pretty cool, but it looks all blocky/pixelated on my phone (not a smooth gradient). The one thing that I find missing from your Power widget is any indication of the current selection (rolling the wheel across the power widget doesn't highlight any icons, and they don't get highlighted when you touch them). For me this makes it really difficult when I use the Wireless toggle to know if it registered the touch and is currently trying to connect to the wireless network. Having it highlight the button would at least confirm that the phone registered the touch and is doing something. Hope that makes sense ;)
[Android Themes] bunu:
Beautiful theme

BRAVO on the nice theme. I really like it. just one little suggestion. (BTW I'm using the red one on cyanogen 4.2.7.1) can you make the droid boot up a wee bit bigger. seems a little too small for me and when the red light is flashing by it is too fast for my taste. you don't have to fix it since the theme is BEAUTIFUL, but if you do that, the theme will be the best.:D
[Android Themes] dmm0816:
are there any mirrors for download these aren't working

EDIT: nevermind i got em, liking the new icons and dialer nice work
[Android Themes] goro285:
I downloaded the blue theme. and i was trying to upgrade to the Cyanogenmod new 4.2.7.1. all i get now is the T-mobile G1 screen.

I tried adding other Rom's but nothing works. I used to change Rom's all the time, dont know why its not working anymore.

Any ideas as to how I can fix this?
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
If you don't have a nandroid of the setup beforehand, you have to:

1. Wipe (sorry gotta do it!)

2. Flash Htc recovery update.zip

3. Flash 4.2.7.1 (go log in and reboot twice)

4. Nandroid !!!!!!!!!

5. Enjoy!
[Android Themes] opasha:
1) this has nothing to do with sir*mez's theme. this is something that occurs and has occurred on cyanogen's roms since 4.2.5, but apparently he hasnt fixed it. a good way to avoid this from keep on happening is to wipe ur fone and start fresh.

3) he probably forgot to add the buttons, not a hard fix. just a drag and drop and sign thing for him to do.

yeah, you need wipe everything and start over buddy. also make sure you have the right spl.
[Android Themes] sir*mez:
Answers

Stericson lockscreen is there.

Cyanogen problem. It also happens on base rom.

1) Cyanogen problem.

2) The power wigdet has the red and green below to indicate if its on or off. Ill see what I can do, maybe.

I like it stock size. I didn't want to change much. If you notice the theme looks stock from notification bar but then wows you when you see the icons and inside the apps. That's what I was going for.

Also Thanks you guys for helping me answer these questions.
[Android Themes] sir*mez:
going to try and release an optimized update today with new google update!!
[Android Themes] SickOfItAll:
Mez-

I fixed the issue described above by removing a reference to BeautifulWidgets from my packages.xml file. It then allowed me to download and install from the market. Is your theme updating the packages.xml file?
[Android Themes] sir*mez:
Update

M_Blendv2.7.b1 & b2 Red, Blue & Green

***Fully Optimized happy smooth sliding!!!

**New Google Maps

*New GTalk Icon

*Icon Pack is up.
[Android Themes] sir*mez:
where is this packages.xml located?? i only touch .xml's that deal with color.
[Android Themes] SickOfItAll:
/data/system/packages.xml
[Android Themes] sir*mez:
i wouldnt be able to touch this. everything i touch is in /system not /data.
[Android Themes] SickOfItAll:
Ok, trying to track down how it got in there. Have a backup of the file from when I was trying to get navigation working a while back and the BeautifulWidgets entry isn't in it. Will see if it was maybe added by the CM 4.2.7.1 update.

[Android Themes] mr_roboto:
I don't know if its just me but ever since applying the newest b1 update, My phone will reboot to the Driod animation screen while listening to music. It is completely random: twice 10 secs after hitting play and another 2 times while doing something else on the phone while music is playing.

Your theme has been rock stable ever since your first release, so I think it might have something to do with your newest release. Can anyone else reproduce this problem?

Edit: It happened again but this time without music playing inside my gmail =/
[Android Themes] softwaretech:
Luv'n it

Absolutely loving this theme so far. The color schemes and the dial pad are great. Thanks!
[Android Themes] glv791297:
Yeah my phone has been rebooting since the B2 update. Also, when I go back to the home screen, all of my icons disappear; this has happened twice already in the past 3 hours.
[Android Themes] Chedderknight:
the icons disappearing is a rom issue, not the theme, its widely documented in the cyanogen threads.
[Android Themes] glv791297:
i figured that sherlock. but how do you explain the rebooting?
[Android Themes] hnsez:
voicesearch force closes tried fixp and inst latest cm over green lock theme

Still does it looks like I gotta wipe
[Android Themes] sir*mez:
What are you using?? b1 or b2. I'm using b1 and I don't have any reboots.

I'm going to check if this is a stericson lockscreen problem.

Ill fix the voice search. It is force closing on me also.
[Android Themes] eessel:
wow! i like how you took the whole op as your quote in that. But hey..Do what you do! lol. Show your love for this piece of awesomeness. :)
[Android Themes] sir*mez:

[Android Themes] glv791297:
Your theme is definitely the best around sir mez.. and a huge fan of your work. That's why i was surprised to see the rebooting errors. Im sure you'll fix it soon.

UPDATE c1 & c2

Change Log:

M_Blendv2.7.c1 & c2 Red, Blue & Green

**Updated Contacts.apk to most recent v1.1.2 (I love this update!!!)

*Fixed Voice Search Force Close

*Added Coconut font (It looks stock nothing crazy. you'll like it, if you dont let me know!!!)

*Redid some files that might of had a bad reaction to optimization.
[Android Themes] mr_roboto:
I was using b1 but I went from a2 to b1, don't know if that is a problem.

However I just updated to c1 and no reboots so far :D, but now my browser won't even start. It just force closes every time. I'm thinking of reinstalling the cyan and then going to c1. I'll report back
[Android Themes] sir*mez:
ok you have to reinstall cyans rom. if you went from a2 to a1 thats your problem. a2 has a different policies.jar than to a1. reinstall cyan 4.2.7.1 and then report back please.

Question:

How do you like the new font?? How do you like the new dialer and contacts??
[Android Themes] mr_roboto:
Reinstalled cyan and then c1 and all is well now, thanks sirmez for the great theme!

The new font is different so I'm still adjusting to it but it looks good
[Android Themes] sir*mez:
thank you sir i was worried. i hate force closes. i take care of what i create. im glad you like the new font. i like the new contacts/dialer its my favorite by far!!
[Android Themes] stonew5082:
contacts.apk

What is cool about the new contacts.apk? I just flashed and everything seems the same... The same awesome theme, that is! Just wondering. I keep hearing about android 2.0 having some kind of 'integrated' social contacts, but I guess this isn't that. Lovin it though.
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
Hey Mez, I have been using other themes to just mix things up and see what i like the most and this new update you have going has got me flashing your themes again. I'll let you know when i got it all flashed....gotta have Advanced Launcher!!!!
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
I see the call log is on the other side and is themed also, i like the speed, it loads faster, and the widgets to the music and power control look great!

The best you've put out so far...not one FC so far!!!!!!

Keep up the good work!

Edit: oh yeah and kudos on the font!!!!
[Android Themes] sino8r:
Sir Mez, I am happy to report that version c (green w/ lockscreen) works perfectly now. Its very nice and smooth. I DO REALLY like the new font and dialer matching the theme. I noticed the font now better matches the network icon and signal bars. Looks great! Glad you caught the voice search FC... I just updated to the latest navigation launcher and realized voice search was FCing. I tried reinstalling that app and google voice with no luck. Thank goodness you caught it! Everything is perfect now! I would have to call this version extremely stable and pretty cool too. Thanks for the hard work, man! This is one of my favorite themes for sure! Keep it up!
[Android Themes] iGoOsE76:

Can I flash Cyanogen Mod 4.2.7.1 if I flashed this theme and I dont want it cuz of probs or something ?without losing my settings/contacts etc. ?

[Android Themes] sir*mez:
Thank you guys I'm happy that your happy!! Thank you for the positive feedback.

Thank you guys/gals who took their time and also donated.

No you shouldn't lose any data if you flash back to cyan rom.
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
Ha Ha....Me Too..Green is Just as good!!!!!

Question Sir*Mez.....I know you just got this theme pretty much done, but any chance you will change the colors of the dots or connections on the actual Lock pattern screen to match the theme colors...I know i'm always Bit##en about something sorry....:rolleyes:
[Android Themes] SickOfItAll:
So I cleared dalvik-cache and the icons haven't disappeared since <knocks on wood>. Really don't want to have to wipe/reset, so I hope that fixed it for good.
[Android Themes] smithfb3:
Done?

Ok, everything working perfect on my phone. They phone is fast, fun and no FC's. SO I guess everything is done. No more updates needed. Tell Cyanogen to stop working on anymore updates. I'm done.

Wait where's Flash, I forgot flash. I heard lasty year that we'd have flash by now. Must be delayed, but it's coming, I know it's coming. Guess you'll have to keep working, in the future.

Thanks for all your hard work. Take a rest and bathe in the glory of a perfect theme....so far.
[Android Themes] aaron8301:
C1 Rules!

C1 is totally awesomer, faster and smoother than ever! Like the new dailer/contacts, too. I DON'T like the new font, however, but I think that's mainly due to my poor eyesight. The font looks good, but is just hard for me to see.

Regardless, KUDOS and keep up the good work!
