Yep. Go for it. Worst you can do is boot loop your phone and have to restore your nandroid :).
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] ellis125:
Haha very true! Thx for the help!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sammydadams:
i replaced all the icons i could that didn't have changing formats and it seems to have worked relatively nicely....the notification pulldown isnt as nice as i would like yet, but its a start...i'm gonna keep messing with it and try to convert some of the .png to .9.png and give it another shot...like you said, the worst that's gonna happen is a required nandroid...

Thanks again for this mod!

edit: Mind if i ask ellis what program are you using to see those attributes for the transparency in the .xml file? I'd like apply that as well if i could...

Does anyone have a step by step on how to flash this mod?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sammydadams:
iggy - put it on the root of your sdcard and reboot into recovery. Make a backup of your NAND then you can flash a zip file through your recovery

How to add toggle for WiFi hotspot?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] iggy:
Sorry to be a pain,

1. put to root of sdcard I understand (now what am I putting their exit extracted directories or the whole unextracted zip file).

2. what is a NAND and and how to back it up

3. how do I flash a zip file via recovery
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] CruzECO13:
1. the .zip as you downloaded it, do not extract.

2. in recovery, there is a option that says Nand Backup/restore. go there then chose backup. Let it run. when completed:

3.theres an option in recovery as well that says "flash from zip" chose and pick the zip file thats listed with the name of the file you want. Hit install, let it run, reboot. and thats it.

Thanks again blassilando, but I am unable to get into recovery mode: tried using recovery mode boot up via extended controls and hot reboot...did not work

also tried what was mentioned in a search on xda dev:

Turn the phone off

Power the phone back on

When it vibrates, press and hold the left menu button until it boots up and says SAFE MODE in the bottom left corner of the scr

shows safemode then reboots directly into normal mode....anyone have any further ideas or a better Application to boot into safemode
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Max_Pain:
Iggy, are you even rooted dude?

1) if you dont know if you're rooted, you're not.

2) if you are, do you have a recovery installed?

2a) if you dont know, you dont.

c) if you dont, search for amon-ra recovery here on the forums and install that. there should be instructions in the thread.

once you are ROOTED and have installed a RECOVERY then you can put this .zip in your sd card and flash it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] CruzECO13:
If you are even rooted as mentioned above and have a recovery such as amon-ra set up. If you do:

Turn the phone off. Hold the volume down button and dont let go. Keep it pressed while turning it on. Do not release the volume down button until the screen gets you to the boot menu. Look for the recovery option. Chose it, hit the power button, and that should take you to the recovery screen. Hope that helps.

Edit: Here's a link to a step by step for rooting and installing a recovery if you need it:

As already mentioned transparency support is built in, you just need to drop the correct file into your framework-res file. That's up to you.

I want to make the power off icons more clear so I changed the icons to what they were in the original zip but I still have these blurry icons. I know the clearer icons are in the framework–res.apk because I pulled it and checked so what am I missing that is making them blurry?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] load97:
I just changed the the widget bar to the widgets I wanted. But was thinking the same thing as you. The power off icons look so fuzzy and hard to see. Changing the icons is past my ability atm, but if someone can make the power off icons clearer that would be great!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
I know this is obvious, buy the default icons were optimized for a white background. You'll have to redo them if modding the widget bar to a darker color.

just asking, does anybody know all of the changes made to the framework-res.apk and others so i can port it to my theme? thanks. fabulous work by the way. on the edge of my seat for 4g toggle.

EDIT: i mainly just need to know the changes made to the framework-res.apk. the other files are easy. and js, if i do it, i will give you full credit and post a link to your thread. really great work on this mod.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Max_Pain:
this mod includes extensive changes to services.jar, framework-res.apk and framework.jar. your best bet is to start with these files and add your other mods into these files. that's what i had to do to preserve my mattedblues theme and it was much easier than doing it the other way around.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dkdude36:
hah my mod includes the smoothsense, which has somewhere like 300 file changes. too hard to sort them all out. if somebody could just tell me the changes to framework-res.apk only, i could sort out the rest. thanks. will give credit.

alright so i got all the stuff i wanted working. changed the background to translucent, changed the the battery and charging icons, changed the widget bar icons and this is what i got. Now i am having one problem and cant figure out what is causing it. when i open tapatalk or k9 mail or other things with a bar a the top, its all messed up and i get stuff like a huge loading spinner in the bar of k9. i had this problem earlier, reflashed everything back to original and didnt have the problem. then i added the images and changed the xml files zzz_stat_sys_battery_1 (for battery level), stat_sys_batter charge, and status_bar_expanded (only deleted color attribute). Heres what it looks like. any ideas?

Just wanted to mention that I was able to get the Sprint banner changed with the buttonized version without it changing to the black/white icons.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sammydadams:
I went ahead and converted the .png shat i needed to .9.png files and now they have a transparent border around them...do i need to edit the .9.png beyond the conversion to get rid of this or what? it looks pretty nice and i'm gonna mess with the button image but here it is so far. You can see the tiny line of transparent below the buttons
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dkdude36:
use the draw9png tool in the sdk to draw a black line all the way around them and there will be no more line. it is in the sdk tools folder. just click and draw ALL THE WAY around. simple enough, but i think it should be something the computer should be able to do on its own.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sammydadams:
thanks DK...i'm gonna give that a try...i dont know why it adds that transparent ring...i'm also gonna make the buttons more transparent and i'll upload it if anyone is interested...its based on the transparent titlebar mod in Myn's rom
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
Not to take this thread off on a tangent, but be careful on how you edit .9 pngs.

Drawing a black line all the way around is not how it should be done, at least not correctly. The lines have explicit meaning, and if drawn incorrectly, could end up messing up the appearance of the applicable images.

The bottom and right lines represent the area within the image where text is allowed to be written, so if it is a button, and you don't want the text to display all the way to the edges, the black lines on the bottom and right represent how far left/right up/down the text may extend.

The left and top lines represent what portion of the image may be stretched by the OS to have the image fill the space specified. This allows you to have a single image that can be used across multiple buttons, screen sizes, etc.

Just a little FYI. If you are doing things that you plan on distributing to fellow XDA members, you want to make sure you do them the right way, so that it looks as it should.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Max_Pain:
so, if i'm replacing a .9.png image that doesn't contain text but another .png on top of it (playback buttons in Mixzing), can i just make the entire image transparent and not give it a black line since there is no text i need to tell it where to locate? and since it's all transparent I also dont care how it stretches?

or will a transparent .9.png also require a black border?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
If it's entirely transparent, I suppose it may be a moot point. .9 pngs, if keeping as .9 must have the indicators on them to compile correctly.

The minimum / basic application that you should be safe with, when in doubt, is a full line from edge to edge of the image itself (not the entire canvas), on the bottom and right, and a single black dot (1px), in the middle of the icon on both the left and top margins (around the 1x1 transparent border).

It is easiest, though, if using something like apktool, to decompile and open the .png in the res folder in Photoshop where you are able to view the current borders set, edit, and allow apktool to recompile into the build folder correctly, or, manually redo them in draw9patch directly. When using draw9patch though, you still need to compile the .9 pngs. I drop them into a dummy application in eclipse, compile and extract. That's old school though. Apktool makes it much easier if desired.

I don't want to clutter this thread any more than it already has, so any other questions related to this, let's take offline.

Thanks!

4G toggle

Major breakthrough this evening on 4G toggle. Those following the thread know last week that I got functional 4G toggle working w/o too much of a problem. However, I could NOT get the darn button/icon to display its state correctly, due to the lag it takes to enable / disable 4G (similar to wifi & bluetooth).

I'm pleased to announce that I've pretty much got it to a respectable point. I'm also embarrassed to admit that the number of hours I have into such a seemingly small thing (icon state) are significant. It took major surgery to the java code to hack this in, and unfortunately, it is a brute force hack to make it work.

I'm going to test it out for a bit, and I have a ton of cleanup work to do on the code prior to release. Currently, I've borrowed an existing set of toggle methods to hack this in and get it working, so now I have to try and create all new methods for 4G separately.

Given Thanksgiving is coming in a few days, I probably won't have a lot of time to package it up for release prior to the beginning of next week. Sorry for the additional tease. Just wanted to let everyone know that more progress has been made.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] JsChiSurf:
In anticipation of the 4G toggle release, any graphics guys out there want to help knock out 4G toggle on/off icons that match the rest of the stock icons in the OP? I've whipped some up for testing, and while they are adequate, I'm sure a graphics guy could do better.

Basically looking for the EXACT format, coloring, shadowing, etc, as the rest of the icons in the stock ported version (b&w), but for 4G.

This is what I have just for development purposes. As you can see, the 'on' isn't horrible, the 'off' sucks, both could be better:

4G in action

Figured I'd tease you guys a little more by recording a quick video showing the 4G toggle in action. As noted earlier, the widget icons are just placeholders. They'll look much nicer upon release. I've been spending my time on functionality versus appearance, and worry about "prettying things up" once it's working to my satisfaction (which it is).

Happy Thanksgiving!

What I released above is stock, intentionally, to be consistent with the original design from CM. This can be themed and "prettied up" as desired. For example, here's what I've done for my own phone to "buttonize" each widget and add a little more height / spacing between each (icons courtesy of djmcnz):

I've attempted several edits of build.prop as well as running the LCD Sceen Density Changer from the marketplace and either way I go into boot loops...

I've changed roms and kernals... if someone else wants to tell me I'm crazy and or stupid and they are able to make the change then I'll keep trying, if it is an issue with this mod then maybe we can help look for a fix?

As soon as I get a full charge I will reflash my rom w/out the mod and see if it works on my setup with that variable removed...

Just to clarify, going over your instruction in red, if I am on myn's rls 4 (freakin the best sense rom out, and especially now with the power widget collabo), am I safe to flash your mod to switch out some of the rom's default widgets and then flash maybe a flash one of Jlechner's power widget or transparent bar? Please excuse the redundancy if this question has been answered.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] akazabam:
Myn's RLS4 already comes with this mod. You don't need to flash anything to change the default widgets. Read the instructions in the OP to create a widget.txt file with whatever toggles you want. Same goes for jlechner's mods and the transparent notification bar. They have been created based on this mod already being applied to myn's RLS4. If you want those mods, just flash them. They won't mess anything up.

Hello, quick question, I am using the buttonized version with circle battery. Everything works as advertized except 4g, whether I use the HTC widget or settings/wireless/4g checkbox my 4g will not turn on or off after airplane mode has been toggled on then off. Once I do a reboot everything works fine, then once I toggle airplane mode again 4g won't turnbon. I have tried nand restoring and reapplying but still have same results. I have noticed also that if 4g was on before airplane mode it will be off after airplane mode but then back on after a reboot. If 4g was off before airplane mode it will be off after airplane mode then also off after a reboot. I'm a pilot so I use airplane mode a lot. I'm content waiting for the 4g toggle but this bugs me so I thought I'd ask if anybody else experienced this. If not ill delve into some more testing.

EDIT: Just to make sure thiwasn't being caused by Switchpro widget or something else on my ROM I did a full wipe and reflash of SteelH's ROM. All I installed was this power control mod and the circle battery mod. I then checked 4g toggle from the settings/wireless menu on the phone all worked well 4g toggled off then on again. Once I toggled the Airplane mode from on to off I experienced the same issue where I was not able to toggle 4g anymore without a reboot. Before anyone says again that the built in 4g toggle is coming I know that already. I just wanted to clarify that this could possible be a bug with the airplane mode with this mod. I'm not saying it is a bug just that it is happening to me.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Vancer:
I just gave it a test and experiencing the same behavior as you are :( ... maybe the OP has seen this and is part of the issues being worked on to add the 4G toggle (hopefully) ... I fly as well and use airplane mode same as you multiple times a day so this is a must work issue unfortunately ... I really like this but if not resolved I may have to go back to the stock individual toggles or buy one of the power control widgets :(
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Vegasden:
You and the poster just above might have missed this. The OP said next week sometime for 4G.
