A little halp plz?

Wanted to first say that is will end up being the only theme i use on my G1, as all the others ive tried cannot match the level of aesthetic.

Secondly, ive tried flashing the optional bootscreens a couple times and have had zero luck getting them to work. Once i flash them, the phone boots but just hangs on boot, sitting there taunting me like it will work, but never finishes loading.

Any thoughts or suggestions?
[Android Themes] takumi2k4:
What order do you flash it?

The proper way is

Flash ROM(SuperD,CM,Dwang) if you haven't -> Restart, set everything up-> Flash Theme -> Lockscreen -> Bootscreen -> Restart

If you don't flash the lockscreen, then scratch that step out. Just flash the bootscreen after you flash the theme itself.
[Android Themes] BeerMit:
Did it just in that order.

Rebooted after flashing theme. Checked out its sexiness and then decided to flash the bootscreen, cuz it looked lame in comparison to the rest of the theme.

But alas, no go when i reboot after flashing it. Just sits there.

So i yanked the battery and restored my last nandroid backup. [Which has been invaluable ;-) ]

Any ideas?
[Android Themes] takumi2k4:
Hmmm... do you use Stericson's lockscreen?

I did those steps for probably 10 times now, and it never screws up for mine.

So... I can think of two things:

1. if you're not using stericson's lock, then you're probably flashing the zip that was for the lockscreen, and I'm pretty sure it would corrupt it since stericson's lock is radically different from the standard Donut lock.

2. the zip file for the bootscreen is screwed up.

Btw, it'd be awesome to find out what rom you're using and if you are indeed using stericson's lock, it would pretty much enable the devs to look around and see if something is wrong on their part...

Other than that, I really can't think of anything else really
[Android Themes] BeerMit:
I'm running Cyanogen 4.2.14.1 on a G1

But unfortunately for the devs, i got it to work, haha. It must have been a corrupt zip. That possibility had crossed my mind so i decided to reDL the file. Applied it and SUCCESS!

I've been running Cyanogen for months now, just a couple weeks ago did i decide to flash a theme, the standard android theme had begun to bore me. Everything was fine up until i decided to flash the bootscreen for this theme.

But all is well now!

Thanks for the help tho. :)

[Android Themes] KingSkeme:
Would changing the mms.apk do anything?
[Android Themes] ppwz33unit:
Thanks! This is the best theme out :)
[Android Themes] dclaw_fantum:
I'm having the same problems. Settings, music, camera all force close and the clock's alarm function doesn't work properly. It puts a notification up and has the dialog pop up for snooze/dismiss, but doesn't make any noise or vibrate when the alarm is set to vibrate and use the BeepBeepBeepAlarm. I keep having to revert to v0.6.7.1 on Dwang. That's the last one that still had every included app functional.

I started from scratch twice to get 1.0 and 1.02 working, without success. Not wasting my time clearing out the phone like that for 1.05, it will not help. Seems like ever since support for SuperD showed up, Dwang has been a redheaded step child to this theme.
[Android Themes] boomer13:
Great theme! My only issue is that I can't seem to install the HTC_IME properly. I use AndExplorer to install it and it says the install completed, so I go into settings and check the Touch Input box. But when I go to use the touch screen keyboard it looks stock. Thanks again for the great theme!
[Android Themes] oneofone1:
Running SuperD 1.8 and DS 1.0.2 and having no problems with MMS. Not sure if it matters, but I'm also using SMS popup. Besides that, I don't believe I've done anything different.

Using the latest Super D rom and darkstar theme

It said in the change log that the new launcher.apk removed the app drawer handle but mine is still there. What am i doing if anything on my end at all
[Android Themes] :
I'm using v1.05.
[Android Themes] jdedeaux:
going to confirm this confirm.

Darkstar on Dwang. Settings force closes, it uninstalls half the the .apk Icons i have installed.

Removed the alarm clock.

I loveee this theme, best so far i just need it to be useable!
[Android Themes] cacheinjection:
Ill get the dwang port sorted asap, sorry guys, its really difficult keeping 3 different version of a theme up to date, and thoroughly testing, yall are a little bit beta testers in a way.

make sure you have unchecked android keyboard, and dont have any version of HTC_IME.apk in your /system/app/ folder.

do you have a home replacement app installed? or are you using advanced launcher? if so they will not utilise the new launcher tab.

yeah it replaces the old alarm clock fro the new one just called clock, going to fix the settings prob tonight, dont know about the .apk icons. are you using an icon set or something? if so it will change the icons for the stock ones, as they are stored in the apks we theme.

Problem with mms sorted for me.

Finally got someone at T-Mobile to admit the problem is with them and my mms is working again for now.

Sorry for doubting your wonderful work.
[Android Themes] boomer13:
Ah, I see now. That worked, thanks again!
[Android Themes] cacheinjection:
yey, so i dont have to make a super D fix?
[Android Themes] xaisomboun:
ahhh i think i know what i did wrong..

when i downloaded the contact.apk fix thing from cyanogen, i installed it with a file manager rather than pushing it to system/app/...

now i need to figure out how to do that push thing lolol.. xD
[Android Themes] IIIIkoolaidIIII:
Awesome, thanks for the update, just flashed and all working well.

Just out of curiosity what does the alternate bootscreen look like, could you post some screens?
[Android Themes] :
All works fine on the SuperD, very nice work love the answer key!

The font leaves long app names in my app draw with funny little rectangles.

Thanks for your work.

Edit: Stopped being blonde and changed it :)
[Android Themes] garz:
k, so I had mentioned my problem in the previous version of SUPER-D about the text in the notification menu missing... and well I just upgraded to the newest version x.9 and well... still no dice.:confused:

btw, the notification pic doesn't even do justice cause 5 minutes after taking it, all the writing disapeared completely...
[Android Themes] theXeffect:
darkstar advance launcher?

hi is there a way for me to get the advance launcher the allows u to add more tha 5 page in the home screen? I noe that the old darkstar use to have it....it would be great if i can get it....

thanks!!!
[Android Themes] cacheinjection:
@theXeffect Look on the OP again near the bottom where you will find the advanced launcher update

Can anyone else using super D replicate garz' problem?

cache

Edit: Stericson Lockscreen for super D is out, Get it from The OP.

also added the Alternate boot screen to the screen shots, so you can see it there.
[Android Themes] :
My notification bar is fine, although my t-mobile text is grey and not white. Wondering if garz has possibly increased text font size as that would recreate his problem as each box only has a set amount of space.

Flashing lockscreen now.

Edit: Everything is working beautifully, damn this theme is sexy fella! Lockscreen works like a charm, now just need the you know what to make it perfect ;) lol

Still trying to recreate garz's problem but unable to, have tried increasing font size in spare parts. Tried a few custom fonts to try and see if that messed things up but cannot recreate for the life of me or even get close! One thing that confuses me is that in the screenshot on the original post and garz both have white t mobile text where as mine is grey.
[Android Themes] poe11371:
I did search but came up with nothing so I have to ask ... anyone have any luck pulling the themed widgets from this theme and installing, or pusing via adb?, with other builds?

I want the power bar, music, and search for either ManUp or Jac 2.x most recent builds but not sure if they will work. Anyone? Thanks for the help.

Also the "launcher" from the first post, will that work in a 2.x rom? ManUp's only has the three screen launcher, got to have my 5, at least.

Heck, while we're at it ... any chance for get this ported to the xRom by JAC or ManUp's Eclair_2.1?
[Android Themes] cacheinjection:
Im confused do you want darkstar widgets with another theme of other widgets with darkstar anyways, the widgets are part of the programs,

Music widget is park of music.apk

Power widget is part of settings.apk

Search widget is part of launcher.apk

so unless you know how to theme apps, you cant have the widgets without the main app, now also you need to remember that settings.apk is different with and without stericsons lockscreen, and if you change launcher.apk you will also change the app draw tab.

also im prety sure that none of these apks are compatible with 2.0/.1 Roms, as there are some major under the hood changes.

That said if you still want to go about changing these whole aplications then you can do the following in terminal:

first copy the apk file you want to replace onto your sdcard. then:

su
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp -r /sdcard/Music.apk /system/app/
mount -o remount,rw /system
exit
exit

Just replace Music.apk with the filename of the apk you wish to install.

Also i dont believe that Our advanced launcher works with 2.0 roms, but i havnt tried it, so i could easily be wrong.

There will be a port for 2.1 roms, as soon as there is one stable enough to run full time, ie with all drivers including GPU etc.

For some reason the Dwang version doesn't skin the power control, search, or music widgets or the app drawer. Anybody else coming across this problem?
[Android Themes] dekeijzer:
Weird thing happened when I flashed this on Dwang.

My HTC_IME language switched back to english (it is kinda cumbersome to change it back to dutch, because it is not possible without a pc) and I am stuck here without a mini-usb cable. Guess I'll have to text in English for now..
[Android Themes] wakeupkeo:
Love this theme! Thank you thank you thank you! Also, that power widget skin is sweet!

PS. I use it with the Kazaa Advanced Launcher (I think thats the name) has the same elements and compliments it well!

[Android Themes] garz:
K, so I came up with the problem that was causing this. After using the font metamorph pack on x.8 version of super-d. It caused the problem and i just flashed over it with x.9 and I guess it kept the problem. I went back to a nandroid backup I had before I flashed the font pack and then upgraded to x.9 and all is well and as for my notification menu. The T-Mobile is white for me.
[Android Themes] dmm0816:
Thanks for the update cacheinjection...i have a question, is it possible for you to make the search widget like the music widget with the grey outline or something? my wallpaper is mostly black and it's hard to find the search widget sometimes
[Android Themes] freekyfrogy:
I'm planning on changing that later today when I get the time. I'll keep you guys updated :) I've got class right now, and some stuff going on later this afternoon, so it may be tonight before me and cache can get it out.

oh aight dats cool, thanks man
[Android Themes] IIIIkoolaidIIII:
Awesome news I was just about to ask the same thing as most wallpapers I use are dark.
[Android Themes] :
Glad you got it sorted fella, had a feeling it was fonts causing the problem, best thing is to do this to backup the original font before messing again ;)

Goto terminal and type su (enter)

Type - mkdir /sdcard/font (enter)

Type - cp /system/font/* /sdcard/font/ (enter)

Now your good to play nicely and can always revert back without having to do a nandroid.

:D

[Android Themes] dclaw_fantum:
I think you are doing great work! I just re-read that last post I made, sorry for coming of a bit rude. I love the look and feel of this theme. I understand that it takes a huge effort on your part to support more than one ROM. Especially when each ROM is different and being updated constantly. If there's anything I can do to help let me know. I have some experience with Linux and programming languages (including Java). I have plenty of processing power to offer. With a little direction, I could probably take some of the load off your shoulders. I have my wave account already: dclaw504.
[Android Themes] ppwz33unit:
Flashed the new 1.05 R2 for Dwang. Looks sweet!

Is there a fix for the alarm clock not ringing? When I set the tone in the Alarm Clock app, I can hear it, but when the actual alarm goes off, there is no sound or vibration.

Appreciate all your hardwork :)

hate what you've done with launcher and music widget, my opinion

Everything force closes. Gmail when I long press, TasKiller when I try to open it, Hancent when I long press, etc, etc. Using Super D 1.8.
[Android Themes] djosiah:
not sure why that is happening seeing as half those apps are not even modified by flashing the theme, have u tried running the fix uid mismatches in recovery?

thats a shame, but unfortunately we cant please everyone. you could always pull the launcher and music.apk from an older version and push them on your phone.

Indeed I did, to no avail. Dunno why it happened. I did a nand backup, restored, and everything was fine. Gonna try it one more time with a clean ROM, see if that makes a difference.

Wellll, after a reflash of the ROM and re-installing my apps, then flashing the theme, everything works in order. Dunno if it was because I had Stericson's lock screen or because of the 780mhz overclock, or a combination of the two, but it works now. Kinda wanted to get rid of Stericson's lock screen anyway... I don't really like it.

[Android Themes] takumi2k4:
Hmm, what's the advantage of using the advanced launcher(aside from your awesome edits)?

I remember using it back 4 months ago and all it did was constantly reload my home screen every time I got out of an app. The standard launcher actually worked better compared to it.

Anyway, a question about the desk clock if you don't mind...

I was watching ep 5 of the Nexus One videos Google has been releasing on YouTube and saw something really interesting. The desk clock is using the N1's live wallpapers as it's background while hooked up on the dock. And this got me thinking, what are the chances of us getting a custom wallpaper in our own desk clocks?

I checked around the apk, and I don't see anything that can lead me to editing the background. I did find some images in the res folder, but nothing that can seem to change it. Btw, why does the hdpi folder have the stock eclair images and the mdpi the DS edits?

I do know that live wallpapers are strictly a N1 thing and I really am not interested in that, what I'm interested in is replacing the black background. Just that.

And where's the link to tip jar? I'll definitely tip you guys once I get some cash, I'm a typical broke ass college student lol.
[Android Themes] :
Advance launcher has come along way in 4 months fella. Tis as smooth as a babies tushy! You can create folders in the app draw to tidy things up, extend the number of home screens, apps in tray launcher etc. I have 5 screens with 64 widgets/apps running and tis smooth as silk. Well worth the download in my book, always the first thing I get set up.
[Android Themes] cacheinjection:
thanks man, the tip jar link is in the first post in this thread just below the screenshots. i can easily add the ability to add a background to teh deskclock, the reason i didnt is that i didnt know what to add. it will involve a little bit of xml editing, but ill sort it out for the next release, and expalin how to change it.

the problem with porting to nexus is that we will have to upscale all the images, as we only have ones for the MDPI resolution atm, and the nexus is HDPI as far as i know. anyway, the answer is yes, we will do it eventual, but there are other things on the tick list before that.

But no, it's not really a problem for her either, she just thinks the boxes ruin the aesthetic of the whole theme lol.

Anyway, last I heard bbaucher finished 1.9 already and is just working on the black version of the rom or something like that, so can we expect a simultaneous release of SuperD 1.9 and DS?

@takumi2k4 the reson for this is that the font we use is english characters only, meaning the special characters that show up here arent in the font, when i get some time ill add all the misssing chars.
