I've updated the framework to include animation, sorry about the lockscreen message, if you see it, it means custom lockscreen backgrounds are working!

Grab it here. It should be signed too!

Gas
[Android Themes] vido.ardes:
Thanks for the update. The battery charging, account sync and downloading animations work fine, although the lockscreen looks the same to me. The signing of the zip worked aswell
[Android Themes] ClassicalGas:
If you use a background that isn't black it should say "JAMT MDPI beta2

please report bugs @ classical-gas.blogspot.com" along the bottom. If you can see that it should mean custom backgrounds are a go.

Are they still a bit blurry?

Gas
[Android Themes] vido.ardes:
After changing the background I can see the text so that has worked fine. I thought it was a placebo but the icons did look sharper to me
[Android Themes] joltgen:
I'm a total noob. How do you install this? I've installed first the FLATBLACK_XXX file and then BlackConfigXMLs in recovery. Everything works great except for the text-color in status-bar is still black/dark.

I've tried both the file for Hero/G2 & G1 with same result.

Phone: HTC Magic 32A

ROM: CM 6.1-RC
[Android Themes] ClassicalGas:
You need to put the xmls in /sdcard/CMThemes/. Then in settings-cyanogenmod setting-user interface-tweaks extras-select the theme.

Gas
[Android Themes] joltgen:
Works great, thanks!

[Android Themes] ClassicalGas:
I didn't know there was a gradient...

Btw, you cash change the lockscreen background with ninjamorph. I think general instructions are in my sig.
[Android Themes] ravendeimos:
i flashed this last night. it was pretty much exactly what i was looking for! is the little message on the lock screen going to always be there? that isnt exactly my favorite, but i can deal with it just cause it makes the rest of my phone awesome.
[Android Themes] ClassicalGas:
The lockscreen message will be gone when I finish adding the lock screen mods. Sorry about it but I needed to see it if was all working.

[Android Themes] dean.d:
I have successfully port this theme to a rom on for the hero, complete with lock screen and also for our CM6.1 and nightlies. I made them flashable .zip for easy sake. I gave you full credit in my thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=837915

I can offer assistance if necessary to provide some flashable zips if you would like.
[Android Themes] ravendeimos:
no problem at all. i was just wondering about it. i love what you did with it all. what sort of stuff is coming for the lockscreen? and will it be optional? all i really want is for the green slide button to not be green anymore!
[Android Themes] ClassicalGas:
Thanks for your effort. The lockscreen is not quiet right though. You need to change the padding in \framework-res.apk\res\layout\keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml from 80.0 to 0.0.

Also thanks very much for crediting me!

Gas
[Android Themes] ClassicalGas:
I've added different lockscreens how too. Please test!
[Android Themes] dean.d:
Wipe cache and dalvik cache then just reflash the rom you are using. I had the same problem when pushing a phone.apk once.
[Android Themes] dean.d:
Thanks for the input. I'll try that today. Thanks for the great theme to work with.
[Android Themes] ClassicalGas:
Sounds like some 9 patch errors. Can you post a screenshot?

Gas
[Android Themes] ravendeimos:
^ that, please!
[Android Themes] vido.ardes:
thanks for the update! The lockscreens work, but two main graphical glitches I can see:

1. The unlock bar halves when you drag it out (see screenshot)

2. The text for the sound ('NRML' and 'SLNT') is very jaggy
[Android Themes] dean.d:
What rom and device do have? I ported this theme from the hdpi version to a version for the hero. The lock screen works perfect for me so perhaps I can port it for you.
[Android Themes] vido.ardes:
I have a Hero, I am running the CM6.1RC ROM
[Android Themes] dean.d:
I only have it in white for cm6.1 but I can port the black no problem.

EDIT: I just updated and now have white and black versions for CM6.1 w/ lockscreens.
[Android Themes] shawn1224:
Hey Dean can you package up just the black graphite lockbar in a flashable zip or metamorph theme? I already have a custom black matte theme I'm working with and would love to include just the lock screen with it.

I'm using a MT3G 1.2 running CM6.1 RC1
[Android Themes] LordXeth:
I can help, but in addition custom I their Phone.apk & framework res.apk!

mfg LordSeth
[Android Themes] shawn1224:
I tried screwing around with the framework-res files once before and it looked okay at first, but I couldn't get the images right when you drag them across the screen.
[Android Themes] dean.d:
Sure. But I need you to post up the Phone.apk and the framework-res.apk for your rom. I'll re-package them and put them in a flashable update folder for you. Happy to help. If you need help getting the .apks, Let me know and I'll help you through it.
[Android Themes] shawn1224:
Here you go

... and Thanks a lot
[Android Themes] ClassicalGas:
Thanks for porting this theme people. Sorry I'm kind of busy right now so haven't been able to fix the issues but looks like you guys have it under control. In a few days I'll have a bit of time to look at this, so if you need any source files let me know and I'll happily provide them.
[Android Themes] dean.d:
Sorry I just got to this but it shouldn't take long to get you the zip.

EDIT: Here you go.:DView attachment lockscreen_for_you.zip

No problem:D. I'm finishing up for the semester as well so i know how you feel.
[Android Themes] shawn1224:
Thanks guys, I'll try both of them out.

edit - unfortunately both are not working. On the 1st one I get an acore FC and it reboots to the splash screen. The 2nd one flashed ok but it didn't alter anything.
[Droid Incredible General] nitzua:
hi all,

in a few days (waiting for wirefly shipping), i'll be an incredible owner. i've done quite a bit of research on the phone up to this point, including coming across this forum and seeing that it was among the most active and informative on the net.

i have an extensive windows skinning/modding background, having been active in the scene for almost 10 years now. i am a moderator at the now mostly defunct customize.org and also at the newer, more active pixelfuckers.org, a site that was started by some of the elite desktop modders in the world as a playground and showcase for our work. my windows screenshots and skins have been very well received by the community and have even won a few contests. i've even had a couple of shots featured on lifehacker.com. i also have a good deal of graphic design and photography/post processing experience.

what i'm getting at here is that i will most certainly be looking to mod the living hell out of my incredible when it finally arrives and i'm looking for the best way to do so. i know of apps like launcher pro and adw launcher and will certainly be utilizing them. i'm also familiar with some of the roms that are available, like cyanogen, and roughly what extra capabilities they give the user as far as customization goes. lastly, i've browsed the incredible screenshot thread and have seen

my questions are as follows :

can i do a fair amount of visual customization without rooting?

what are some free apps that are skinnable and help in visual customization?

thanks in advance everyone.

as a final thought for now, i intend to start making android-sized versions of my popular desktop wallpaper series, 'photowalls', so keep a look out for those in the near future. if you'd like links to any of my work (being a new user, i can't put them in this post), don't hesitate to ask.
[Droid Incredible General] Zoon0n:
You might want to check out this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=761517

Definitely use Launcher Pro, you can choose what icons to use for applications you place on your homescreens, as well as hide apps in the app drawer.

You can also use BetterCut or Folder Organizer to change the icons on folders, all without root.

I'm not sure if you can get access to /system/app without rooting (I'm pretty sure you can't), but if it turns out you can, you can use ADB to replace the apk's with modified ones posted on this forum.

As far as skinnable widgets, I know Beautiful Widgets has a lot of skins available for it, but beyond that I haven't really looked. Hope this helps.
[Droid Incredible General] linuxmotion:
Welcome to the forums. Can't wait to see your work. Rooting is easy. Lots of roms. Great community. Glad to see you here.

[Droid Incredible General] nitzua:
thanks for the tips zoon, i'll check that thread out some time.

as far as the wallpapers go, i know the formula for resolution is 1x height and 2x width, making the dinc one 960x800. is there another resolution that's overly common that i should include in the packs? i'll probably throw an iphone-sized one in there too, just to maximize the number of downloads.
[Droid Incredible General] nitzua:
also, if anyone out there is looking to collab on a theme/widget design (you do the coding, i do the graphics), i'd definitely be up for it.
[Droid Incredible General] linuxmotion:
I will take you up on that sometime in the future if you don't mind. Im still getting the video cam and bluetooth working. But after that i was going to start themeing/modding.

[HD2 General] jolas:
I'm suffering from the freezing problem and even though I have tried several custom and official ROMS, the problem still persists.

After reading a lot of threads, I started experimenting myself with T-mobile HD2.

What I found is that when I soft reset my device although I have disabled HTC Sense the freeze that occurs in the splash screen never appears again (up to now I have tried over 15 times, without any freezes!!!!)

Something else I noticed, is that when the freeze occurs while I am in normal operation (HTC Sense is active and I'm running an application) some times I have and some I do not have the boot up freeze. Sometimes it refuses to start and I have to take out the battery several times before it starts up again. If together with the battery I take out the SIM card too, I have no boot up freeze (I didn't have the chance to check it many times).

Please, do your own tests too, and write down your observations.
[HD2 General] ashasaur:
Most of the time if you get a startup freeze it's because of something on your SD card, so I'm not quite sure why yours is intermittent like that...but, it IS WinMo afterall.
[HD2 General] jolas:
Before I figure out about Sense, I had freezes even without SD card.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Qudlaty:
Hi

I wanted to install the GOT 2.2 on my Milestone, but I've got a problem. I boot my phone in recovery, connect it to my PC, but my PC can't find the drivers. I've installed the driver package from the Motorola site, but still no luck. My phone comes up as "A853". My PC is running Windows Vista 32-bit.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

If I back up settings for a Captivate Rom with TiBu, is it safe to restore them when I switch to an I9000 Rom?

Thanks,

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tytdfn:
I don't think so. This is just a guess but i know that different roms use different settings.apk's. have you ever had a succesful restore of settings between two roms with (noticeable) different settings?

I did not try to restore my captivate settings when I switched to an I9000 rom. I just did everything manually to be on the safe side.

Hi ... I own a 20 day old galaxy S and i also managed to upgrade the firmware on kies to the JG4 version you had there, but suddenly from yesterday, for no reason, every time I connect the micro usb cable to sansung kies, the phone stops reading the external card and I am unable to connect to samsung kies... I have to restart the phone for the SD card to be available again...I thought is was a problem with the card itself, but the same problem arises when i use a friends perfectly operating SD Card.. also the phone screen says 'initialising Samsung Kies and suddenly keeps flashing to MTP application (home screen)... how can a NEW phone begin doing somthing like this .. please help with an answer asap. How do I connect to Kies without disabling my SD cards (internal and external)?

Hello folks,

i readed something about this but i didn't understand too much.. :confused:

Well, my problem is that i'm new about android so hope to find someone can explain me how to solve my problem or if it's possible!

A friend of mine gave me a Motorola Backflip ME600 bought in Malaysia. The firmware is 1.5 and the system version is this: Blur_Version.0.10.8.ME600.ChinaRetail.en.CN

I'm italian and i'd like to have this smartphone in italian language. I readed that the MB600 is the same smartphone but sold in USA/Europe and its firmware is also in italian. Mine for example has only English/Chinese as language.

The question is: can i hack and change the whole firmware with the MB600's one? Or better, how can i have the italian language (if it's possible)?

Sorry for my english and sorry if my thread is in wrong place or something, i'm newbie! :p

edit1:

Step1 completed by myself :cool:

The smartphone was ME600, now it's MB300 with original italian firwmare!

Now, is it possibile to update to Android 2.x?

A big thanks for anyone can help me with any informations :)

The lobbying for Sony to take care of its customers was great and patient (appart from some angry words), but maybe a real Facebook action might help Sony realize that the world changed and that they just cannot ignore their customers anymore,

so we created a facebook action page:

facebook.com/pages/Boycott-Sony-smartphones-Xperia-X10-Sony-refuses-to-update-them/103137106423555

I'm new here, so I can't past the link of the Facebook page

[XPERIA X10 General] stan.s:
A fwiw,

SE has a SE-USA page on Facebook. I posted a day ago there asking, if they could ESTIMATE the NAM Generic release date and estimate how long AT&T would take to customize/release it. They simply deleted the post.
[XPERIA X10 General] Quasicoto:
SE only wants to look good on their social networks. Anything that makes them look bad will get deleted. I asked them about the led, wether it was just really fash or just photo light in 2.1...guess what they did with it.
[XPERIA X10 General] stan.s:
I wasn't insulting. I just asked since the 2.1 update was starting to roll out on Sunday night, if they could ETA the NAM generic and estimate how long AT&T takes to pass on the version they use. They could have said, two or three weeks for each of those, and it would be an answer that would have been acceptable.

I'm personally fearful that AT&T won't see it as a necessity to get new firmware out. The Captivate outsold X10's by 20:1 and they have many more angry Samsung customers than SE. Returned Captivate people go to HTC or iPhones, not X10. AT&T stores have very few if any X10's in stock. Best Buy keeps the majority of them at the warehouse and doesn't even bother shipping them to the stores. SonyStyle store staff for the most part, gave away or sold their X10's when they got them free. X10's are a minor phone on AT&T like most of the SE phones have been in the past. AT&T has never released a second firmware version of any SE phone to my knowledge, and I and my family have had a number of them.

I guess I'll have to unbrand it and wait. Except for the market access, the android phone isn't as dependent on AT&T's browser and stuff like the old java phones. I'm not going to lose Youtube. I will loose the AT&T TV stuff, but that's to be expected.

Folks,

In the topic "Post you homescreen", I saw this marvellous one.. ( I attached it )

To be honest it's like the best i've ever seen..

Without any doubt I send a pm to the user but i think he is quite busy and couldnt reply me.

I've been searching the internet for about 3 days and i did find nothing..

I couldnt even find how to make such a dock ( with texts ) ..

downloaded ADW - launcher pro - dxtop lite - ... nothing works.. no themes around at all similar to this.

Is there anyone who has a clue about how to build such a theme ? :confused:

cuz its definitely not a single file to install :D
[Android Themes] ljbaumer:
you think that is the best you've ever seen!!!

sorry it's just that i hate orange themes
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
From what I can see:

LauncherPro

The dock icons are posted on this forum actually. "TallMin" by Lekky

The theme itself (statusbar etc) I don't know. Run it through UOT. It's black with orange icons and Rounded Battery, no big deal.

Widgets:

Pure Messenger

Beautiful Widgets

BattStatt

SwitchPro

Transdroid

The music player can be any. They all have that certain feel to them.

The icons on the homescreens I don't know about. Probably something popular

Check DeviantART > Customization > Icons > Dock Icons > Most Popular Ever

It's extremly basic stuff here, it's probably all been mentioned a million times in "Post your Homescreens".

BTW: LauncherPro doesn't theme your statusbar.

You're gonna have to be rooted in order to change it.

And I'm sorry but: You've been searching the internet for three days? That's pure bull****! If you'd been

searching for three days you'd know all this three days ago.
[Android Themes] alexfomelton:
Well, the reason i said that is, i really like simple and pro looking themes..

I've been using I9000 for about 3 weeks, and just started to customizing it..

thats why im quite new about this stuff.

The majority of the themes i saw until now is containing too much stuff in a small screen which i really dont like .. thats why when i first saw this theme i thought this is it ! :)

but anyways i'll keep looking .. thanks for your comment ..
[Android Themes] alexfomelton:
I'll now try to run thorugh what you've written :) Hope i'll get something similar at the end..

I dont know much about being root .. i need to do a quick search about that..

Well , searching internet for three days.. yes but meanwhile i am doing my second year uni project and writing a few essays so thats not an actual three days time :D i am not a dumb :D

anyways i am gonna update the post ..

P.s i couldn't quote your post, it does not allow me to post external links ..

Update: I was really confused about everyting .. starting from what you've writtin i've done what i want , thank you :) [zHk3R]

Hi! guy... my current phone is x10 mini (E10i), I'm having a major problem on my phone every time my dial or want to call some one the phone INSTANTLY denies it and gives me 'call ended', nor I can text but surprisingly can use the 3g.

So what the SOLUTION and is it the SIM or the phone??

Thank you!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] SXUsr:
Ask in the Mini forum.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] djsikhbeatsz:
Try a soft reset. Turn the phone off, take out the battery for 5-10 seconds and put it back in and power up again. If this doesnt work try either a hard reset or try replacing your sim. Most likely this should solve your problem.
