There is something wrong cortland. I was unable to uninstall the theme or flash any other versions and had to do a nandroid backup.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
I'm not really sure why man... I've tried to replicate it on my phone a couple times and nothing. You wont lose anything if you install my Uninstall_3.zip, and then 2.1.3a.zip. All the uninstall does is put Lou's original apks and framework that I themed, back onto your phone.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
Anyone else? I know jbeezybaby had no problems with 2.1.3a.zip along with the two Incs I have at home.. I'm not sure where else to look. Unless I can replicate the bootloop... I'm welcome to suggestions.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bckrupps:
It's ok. I don't have anything that would interfere with the theme. After my backup installs I will try it again. Really weird cause uninstalling the theme caused a boot loop too. That's computers and phones for you lol. At least there wasn't a blue screen of death :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bckrupps:
It installed fine cortland after running a backup so who knows lol. If you are running individual mods through meta morph maybe one could be made for smooth calendar where it stays all black but highlights the number red. Thanks for all the hard work.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
Red number? Sounds good to me. I'd prefer all black as well. I'll look into that. I'm sure that's an xml file and I'll have to start digging.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bckrupps:
Sounds good. I would leave just the red border around the month like the last version and highlight the number red. That would nail it I think lol. Thanks again.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
Okay I will put that together.

On a side note something strange that keeps happening...

I use metamorph to inject the image files into the market "vending.apk". After reboot the market is themed. However, once you close it and come back to it, it's back to green again.... how the hell does this happen? The original green images are overwritten.. I'm confused as ever on what is taking place... anyone know why this would happen?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] :
oh nice, excited for that :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] :
what if instead of using metamorph to inject the images you just replaced the entire apk file. might get rid of this.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
If I do that, everyone will have to go back to using one generic theme. By using metamorph... Everyone can have my theme, with different versions of market, rosie, smooth calendar, etc... People can mix and match once I get a bunch of add-ons out there.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wylie1973:
I've applied the Black Market and for some reason it keeps going back to the original one. WTF? It has worked all week until about 15 minutes ago... I didn't change anything else. Anyone else having this problem?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
Try uninstalling what you have and then reflash the bm
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wylie1973:
Tried that, same result. I wonder if there was some kind of update. If I adb pull the Vendor.apk, it has the modded png's in it. Weird...
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
Where did you get the black market? And how was it installed?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] d_1000:
I downloaded slayer69's glass icon pack. I know I can place them on the homescreen using Desktop Visualizer.

Is there an app to actually change the icons in the system without doing adb push? I am a Mac user and I have not had any luck pushing.

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
Dude I spent 5 hours last night trying to figure this out. If you read a few posts back I had the same thing happen to me. Using root explorer it even shows my new red images. However, the phone keeps going back to green. I even deleted Vending.apk from recovery and installed with a zip.... same thing. It would go back to green images. I have no idea where they are coming from.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
I think it has to do with the phone and how it caches market place. Best be its just do a flashable zip for vending.apk

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
That's why I have that way on my thread. Stand alone black and blue market.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
Not that I know of
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
That's what is weird... I used Fernando's flashable black market, and it still goes back to green. I use my red one, goes back to green. I'll have to post a video for you guys.. it's driving me crazy. I go into the market... it's black, or red... okay cool. Once I exit, and go back into it, it's back to green.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wylie1973:
Same thing here. I used the flashable one and installed it using Rom Manager.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wylie1973:
Originally, I had it installed from one of the Viva Themes. Then I downloaded the black_market.zip and installed that one. Either way, it goes right back to the original green. I pulled the Vendor.apk and checked, it still has the Black market images. I cleared the market Cache and Data, ran fixed permissions in gscript. Nothing is working. I'm at a loss.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
Very weird. I've heard about that tho with the blue market a few months back
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
Maybe you have 2 markets installed. Look in system/app and in data/app and make sure there are not 2 on the phone

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] xray49er:
This happened to me in redemptive 2.1.1 . I went back just to 2.1 and the black market sticks. Maybe it has something to due with lou's udate patch that he eventually removed
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wylie1973:
Bingo! There is a com.android.vending-1.apk under /data/app/.

Should I remove that one?

Where the He77 did the 2nd one come from all of a sudden?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
Bad file structure for a flashable zip. It happens sometimes. Hopefully it fixes your problem

Sent from my slutty assistant. (HTC Incredible)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
I actually found that last night and removed it. After doing that, I flashed the Vending.apk and it still wouldn't work. If you look in root explorer it'll show vending installed. However, it won't show in the app list after removing com.android.vending-1.apk.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
No it happens even when its installed as a system app via theme. If it was a bad flash there would be a lot more problems
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
in your system apps it should read vending.apk. nothing else. that could be the problem
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
Oh nvm

Sent from my slutty assistant. (HTC Incredible)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wylie1973:
Ok, I think I got it fixed.

I renamed the /system/app/Vending.apk to .bak.

Moved the com.android.vending-1.apk from /data/app to /system/app.

Renamed it to Vending.apk and changed the permissions.

Rebooted (market is working although green).

Reflashed the Black Market using an update.zip

Seems to be sticking now. I wonder if there was an update to the market?

We'll see if it sticks now.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wylie1973:
Scratch that, getting market force closes left and right. Restoring Nandroid now.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
very weird. i am always flashing the blue or black market to test them. they always are in my system apps labeled vending.apk so unless your phone is somehow renaming the file ( which it isnt) then there are probably two conflicting apps on your phone.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wylie1973:
Ok, after restoring from a nandroid, I figured out the problem. There was a market update. When I restored, my original market was version 1.82 (settings>applications>running). I ran it (it was still black) and it suddenly closed. When I opened it again it was the original green. I check the version again and it is now 2.12.

Not sure what to do now...
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] crazyg0od33:
hey nic, is that wifi signal meter completed to your liking? Not rushing, just curious since you finished that 3G one really quick. If it is done, would you mind if cortland metamorphed it so I could get it on my phone?

Thanks man, keep up the good work
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
Update on the Market app being themed... as if anyone cares of my troubles.. haha

I did a fresh install of Lou's 2.1... Then tried to install the black market, blue market, and my yet to be released red market... and nothing. I am still getting the green market.

I read in a forum yesterday that the market was being updated... I wonder if this is part of the reason.

REDemptive_Theme_2.1.4

New update! This actually has some things you'll notice.. New matching notification icon for the Mail app. Theme entire Mail.apk. Cool looking mail sync icon when sycning emails. New badge icon for text messages and emails, and anything else that displays a number count. Themed text input boxes to red. Smooth Calendar icon back to 2.1.1's image. not as much red, but still some. Re-themed a bunch of framework-res pngs.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] d_1000:
Thanks....slayer69 was able to point me in the right direction. Using Folder Organizer you can replace them on the homescreen, but not in the system. I like Folder Organizer a little better than the other app I was using.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
Yes he is the glass icon king and very helpful
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
You data wiped and did a rom install? And you still have the problem?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
Yeah.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
that blows
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Nic2112:
As soon as Fernando prepares and releases version 1.9 of Viva!, Cortland will be able to take the graphics and change them to red. I'm not going to release the graphics before because they are my "donation" to Fernando for making the theme that I use. Instead of cash I gave him a few graphics, so it makes sense if his theme is the first one released with the meters I did.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Nic2112:
I should be able to provide Fernando with the last few graphics that we need tonight. It's up to him if he wants to release a new version of his theme though. I don't know how to make a theme or how to create a MetaMorph file that would only patch what I make so I'll leave it up to Fernando and Cortland to cook up the themes :)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
I can,make a mm theme to swap out the png so he don't need to make a whole new zip. Up to him though.

REDemptive_Theme_2.1.5 Released

Sorry for another update... There were a few icons that were bugging me and I had to fix them. Also, finally found a smooth calendar icon that I actually like.. haha as if I didn't change it enough.

Speaking of blinding icons in earlier posts... I changed the volume bar icon to a red that'll make you squint your eyes when you turn the volume up and down.

REDemptive_Theme_2.1.5.zip
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Nic2112:
Would you mind telling me how? I'm assuming that there's simply information on where to copy the files to and where the source files are, but I just never took the time to look at a MM file and figure it out. Sounds like it would be the way to go.

Could you make me a MM with the standard images so that I learn how to make a MM at the same time? I can then replace the images with mine. At the same time I can learn how MM files are built. I really appreciate your offer, just that if I can do it myself I won't have to rely on you every time.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
This tells you everything you need to know in making MM zip files.

@Courtland: I know your working on the red market, but I'm wondering if there's a red keyboard (or another one somewhere). I see there's a matching keyboard availible for Viva, but I'm a red kind of guy.....
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
Sure. Let me put one together tonight. Do you use the stock keyboard?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] dustinb17:
Hey Fernando, do you know if this market update coming from Google shortly will effect either of your market updates? (the blue and black markets)

Any idea if we'll run into problems or is the framework still original enough that it should be a seamless update. I know the modded Facebook app caused problems but hoped the Market changes were less extreme.

Sorry if it's a dumb question cause I have no clue what making these changes entails. Just didn't know if it was something you could give any insight on or if it is just something we'll just have to wait for and see?

I guess best case scenario would be if it was just an update to the back end and we would see no changes to the market app we use to access it.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bckrupps:
Update is great cortland. Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
actually thats a great question. if you had the black facebook in your system apps then it wouldnt update. i would say the same for the market except for the bizarre experiances people are having with the themed markets. if the update is like the facebook update with major changes then i dont know. to retheme that is a huge amount of work and ive yet to set up a virtual box with apktool. so we will have to wait and see.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
ok im going to release viva 1.9 tomorrow. ive decided against metamorph at this time as i already have 3 themes going with addons.

this update has a lot of taskbar icon changes. most done by our own nic2112. its always been my objective to get free of the blue themed icons that have been around for a while. i dont even know there original source. this is the direction im going to take the theme. if you dont like the changes i would hold on to 1.8.5, though that has a few of the changes in it. its just impossible to please everyone and i think ill better serve redemptive rom and viva by sticking to a plan. i would suggest people downloading 7zip and buying root explorer. with those two programs you can pretty much identify and change most images.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] cortland1998:
Cool thank you.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
this one is a little small. let me know i can ask him to do the larger icon
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Nic2112:
Here's a preview of Viva! 1.9 coming tomorrow!

New notification bar icons!

- New Upload/Download animated icons

- New super smooth animated Sync icon

- New 3G indicator

- New Signal Strength indicator

And also, something I put a lot of effort into... the new WiFi signal strength indicator

Fernando is going to do some testing tomorrow to make sure everything is nice and stable and I believe he will be making the 3 versions of the theme with the new icons. I hope you guys enjoy this!

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
ya know, i dont care if people jump themes. i used to jump themes and roms daily. but you have it backwards. seeing how many hours cortland and i have spent on our themes you should probably be asking our permission to post his link. something to think about.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
i havnt been following the redemptive rom thread but lou usually gives it to us first to theme. our themes would work on an update of his but the question is what would you lose etc. so when he lets us know we will break it down and add our goodies to it.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] spence341:
That is more than fair... Fernado and Cortland have been working in tandem and have more hours than you could imagine in this...
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Nic2112:
Lou is testing it at the moment so probably tonight. He mentioned on twitter that it'll be a full wipe ROM because of framework changes.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
Well I'm going to wait on 1. 9. Full wipe means I have to rework The theme
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] crazyg0od33:
Alright, lol. I use your themes so I know you put time into them. But when the thread name is: redemptive revolution themes, I'm just giving you guys ANOTHER theme that works on the rom. So my bad , bro, but I'm just trying to help. Get the post deleted if you're that pissed, I don't really care.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
yeah nic i just checked twitter. been fricking busy at work so ive just been watching this thread. sounds like he is getting close. i have a message into him. it doesnt make sense to release an update if he is putting one out the next day. so ill sit tight until i hear from him
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Nic2112:
Cool, that'll give me some time to test and see if my metamorph file works.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
when your done can i check it out? i just want to break it down and see whats inside. never used metamorph
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] spence341:
If I had to guess, I would think that it was based of the same framework that 2.1.1 was. Didn't you release a version for that one? No need to recreate if you have something to start with.

I flashed Cortland's latest over 2.1.1. That was a mistake. Boot loop!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Nic2112:
So far it doesn't work but you can download a random metamorph notification theme and look it up.

i believe those rosie mods are from the incredible theme section. i flashed one a while ago and it worked. it should just be launcher and app drawer but im not positive

Do you need help setting it up? It's real finicky.. The Zip file has to have the exact case sensitive name as the xml. There are other factors too that have to be perfect.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Nic2112:
I got it to work with Viva but it doesn't work with the distinction theme because he uses different filenames. I figured making a metamorph would make it universal but I guess I was wrong
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
If you have a mm theme you need to make sure the Rom files match drawable-hdpi

Vs

Drawable-hdpi-v4

As long as you take a look at the Rom frame work file structure and match it exactly.

Some Roms use hdpi and some use hdpi-v4
