That would be awesome
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] willsnews:
Also I was told transparent swype was not possible Is that true
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Not sure who told you that. While I haven't looked at it yet, it is on my list and I highly doubt it's impossible. It may, however, be very difficult and take me a long time ;) Also, it may be app dependent (as in use the background of the app it's opened in.)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bartek25:
if the pulldown had only bubbles wihout grayish background i mean if pulldown was transparent just those bubbles were there it would be .kick ass!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Ya, I was thinking about replacing that backdrop too. My only concernt is making sure everything's still read-able.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bartek25:
if those bubbles had something like light like light bulb behind them maybe ? u know kind of lit up behind text but just so it makes it readable
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Ok, here's the old dropdown metamorph I promised. It has a little of the new one as well, however. I can revert the rest as well, but wanted to see what you guys thought of this first.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] willsnews:
I like the .6 drop this theme is amazing dude really
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Thanks, I appreciate that :)

Looking at Swype btw. There's definately a "deep" background to it just like Mms and Settings. So far, though, haven't found what I need to change it. Looking like it may be app specific.

Edit: Ok good news followed by bad news x2 :D

Good news:

I can remove the background from swype.

Bad news #1:

It will be transparent on transparent apps, but other apps you will see the background and possibly other things that man was never meant to see (the horror). Seriously though, you might see other buttons or bars, etc. that the programer meant to have the keyboard cover up.

Bad news#2:

For some reason, the maker of Swype covers up the blue highlight from pressing a key with the background......so basically you end up with blue halos around everything after you type for a bit. This can be fixed in one of two ways:

1. Keep the keys solid(without any transparency at all) and have only the background transparent. It will just look like the key glowing instead of having the full halo effect around it.

2. Remove the glowing effect altogether.

I may someday down the road be able to come up with a 3rd option that involves actually fixing the problem, but for now I don't want to promise anything.

This sound like something you guys would want to use knowing the drawbacks?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] willsnews:
I would check it out for sure what if it looks awesome theres no harm in trying your doin great
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Ok, I'll make a "quick and dirty" version for now using the blackfroyo swype I made awhile back for people to play with as well as a revert flashable if it sucks horribly :D

Even "quick and dirty" won't be tonight though lol
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] drewdude007:
So i tried to flash the old dropdown and it hangs at installing update.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] hazard99:
I could roll with that I think it was just the rest of the drop down that I didnt like.

Would it be possible to make it optional through metamorph? Just trying to throw out options so its not to complicated.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
C'mon hazard.... :D

@drewdude007 If you're new to metamorph, just download the free app from the market and navigate to the .zip from inside the app then click "apply all".
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mainevent3405:
Is there a way to just get the clear drop down without changing anything else including the status bar up top?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jrod33084:
+1 . I am running tonics new androdena theme and love it but I would like to grab specifics out of this theme such as the transparent mms and settings, etc. Is there a way to apply certain transparencys without changing the overall theme??
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] hazard99:
Your the best dude!!!!I love this theme
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Unfortunately the bulk of the transparency adjustments are not simply contained in the individual apks. Honestly this project should almost be called a Mod rather than a theme as I spend 90% of my time delving through xmls rather than changing out pngs. Once I'm pretty happy that this theme/mod is complete, I will definately look at incorporating it into some of the more popular themes.

As I've said before, I lack much artistic capability so I chose a project that was more problem-solving in nature.

I have a few more apks to go before I will feel comfortable calling this project a "success", however, so please bare with me ;)

P.S. I really like the look of androdena theme as well.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] jrod33084:
Do ur thing man don't let us beggers hold you back lol
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Well.....Swype is a no go for now. Basically it seems they chose to continuously layer keyboards, swypes, keypresses, etc. every time you do anything. You never seen any of this ordinarily because as soon as you're done with the action, it brings the current keyboard to the top of the layer list, hiding everything else. Unfortunately, if that keyboard has no background, you pretty quickly end up seeing a mess of blue glows, blue lines, and a mix of keyboards.

I've looked around at trying to change the way it calls the images, but haven't found anything yet. I'm not entirely giving up on it, but putting it on the back burner for now.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] drewdude007:
Got it thanks!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] j0hnZ:
Damn that sounds like a lot of work re-designing/re-coding how it calls the keyboards. Making sure you don't slow down the keyboard calls.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Wow.....Gmail has ripped me a new one. I lost track of the hours spent on it. I have had to edit images, xmls, and a whole lot of java files in order to produce what is nearly a complete color inversion coupled (of course) with at least some transparency. Unfortunately it will probably be a little weak on the transparency side for two reasons:

1. Emails can be hard enough to read without the background being transparent

2. I haven't figured out how to make anything but the list of emails transparent yet :D

Anyway, my head was spinning so I thought I'd take a break and post to help my own sanity ;)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Alright, new version up with the evil Gmail.apk as well as a new dropdown background and flying transition animations.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Even though it kinda feels like I'm just talking to myself here, anyone who's actually reads this may like to know that theming market turned out to be a little easier than I expected, so there will be another update soon.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Tonicacid:
good lord man....you keep making this theme look better and better. I might have to run this on my phone instead of my own themes lol. Nice work on this.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
lmao....don't you dare! I love the looks of Androdena. I was actually thinking about talking you into letting me mix a little Androdena-Glass type theme ;)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Tonicacid:
lol that would be pretty sweet combine the two and....Take Over The World.

Yeah man let me know if you want to throw something together.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
I think I'm running out of things to make invisible, so I'm bound to get bored soon :D
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Tonicacid:
just make the birds in angry birds invisible. Then lets see how hard it is to kill those little pigs.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
lol, that actually sounds hilarious. It sounds almost as challenging as when I turned basically everything but my status dropdown invisible by accident.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Ok, v0.8 is up with the new themed Market.....and I'm going to bed.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] drcrappants:
this looks great! how is it on the battery though? and i didnt see an uninstall feature other than revert to stock?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Lol...it's a theme, so it shouldn't change battery life, but if it doesn somehow let me know ;) The revert is an "uninstall" in relation to bionix-v. Perhaps "stock" was a poor choice of words. I will take you back to stock bionix-v not stock android.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] willsnews:
.8 you sir are a bad ass the market looks awesome this theme gets better every time I look at it thank you and I can't wait to see what's next
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] PowSniffer0110:
Awesome! Thanks man. Looks sweet. Is there anyway you could make versions to not change boot and shutdown? I like the boots and shutdowns of the bionix stuff. Thanks!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] drcrappants:
cool thanks! does it induce any lag--i tried a theme earlier and it made my phone super laggy!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Fair enough, here's the Bionix-V 1.2 boot and shutdown animations ready to flash
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] drcrappants:
i tried metamorphing this, but after it was done extracting it sent me to my home and nothing changed.

flashable only?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] MWBehr:
Yes, my theme is flashable only. It would be basically impossible to make it into a metamorph.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] drcrappants:
ok thanks, what feature makes it impossible? just curious as to how metamorph works since i haven't been able to apply something to it yet :)

Ok a few days ago I flashed my first Rom (Cognition) all went well and before I did it I backed up my oringinal stock 2.1 rom with rom manager, My question is can I restore/recover that 2.1 original rom through rom manager then flash phoenix 2.5 rom or will I have to use odin to restore then Flash my new Rom. Thanks any help appreciated

I Have A HTC Hero But I'm Pretty Sure It's The Same....

I'm Not Sure I'm Understanding Your Question, But I Think You Want To Get Back To Your Stock ROM & Flash A New ROM Correct?

If That's It?

You Can, But You Don't Have To Convert Back In Order To Flash Another Rom.... Just "Wipe"

System/Cache/Dalvik Cache,

& Install The New Rom!

You Can Always Restore Back To Your Stock Backup!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
No you can not revert bacj to your stock 2.1 from 2.2 using clockwork with a captivate
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rob1216:
Can you explain how to wipe system /cache/dalvix cache or post link i googled it but found nothing with step by step instructions. I would like to try this before odin. Also why does it let you create a back up of 2.1 rom if you cant revert back there from 2.2 then whats the point of backing up 2.1 in the first place. Just thought you could do that instead of odin after reading a post which I was going to post the link to here but wont let me cause Im too new.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Do you have rom manager?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rob1216:
Yes Free version
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
I do not recommend flashing phoenix over cognition without a flash to stock, but if you want to try, you can.

Cognition uses voodoo. First thing you should do is disable it.

Find voodoo file in your internal sd. Create a folder in side voodoo folder named disable-lagfix. Reboot phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rob1216:
Ok its disabled, but If Odin is the best way to go maybe I should try it but just been reading about higher risk of bricking phone using odin. Just really want to try different rom because cognition it smooth as butter but battery life is killing me compared to stock and yes I tried the charging battery to 100 then unplugging shutting down charging to 100, reboot, shut down then to 100 again no help. Anyways if I use Odin does voodoo have to be disabled also.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Pull your battery. Obviously power off first. Under battery is a build number, mine is 1008. Tell me yours
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rob1216:
mine is 1010
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Odin may be difficult to use. You may want to research your build more. Anything over 1008 is where odin is an issue

What is your base

Settings, about phone, bottom
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rob1216:
Damn i didnt want to hear that,Says baseband version I897UCJI6 is that it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
Yes that is it.

Being on build 1010 I an not comfortable with telling you how to proceed. You need advise from someone who flashes with that build. It behaves differently with odin. I am sorry. Search build 1010
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rob1216:
Ok thanks for your help, Ill look around
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GGXtreme:
If you've never flashed with Odin one-click before, try this instead to avoid any risk of bricking (very likely on some build 1008-1010 phones that don't run JF6 stock):

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Madtowndave:
I guess I'm confused...is odin really necessary at all for him? If he disables voodoo lagfix, and clears dalvik cache, he should be able to flash over the top...correct?

I flashed cognition 3.02 direct to andromeda 2.0 via cwr and did not clear dalvik or disable lagfix (since cog and andromeda both enable voodoo)...no problems for me.

Maybe it's different/more complicated flashing over the top to the ROM he wants to go to though...

i897 running Andromeda 2.0
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Madtowndave:
Also (my understanding) the backups done via cwr require the same ROM and kernel. So if you wanted to go back to where you were with stock 2.1, you could Odin, then restore nandroid and your phone would be 'back' to where it was previous to first flash.

i897 running Andromeda 2.0
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
Almost. In order to restore your cwm backup, you need a matching kernel and modem, not necessarily a matching rom.

Weatherbug takes forever to load and loop radar. Radar now works really good but on the streak its really small. So I'm looking for something like radar now that is full screen.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] carhigh:
Here we go again in the north east with another big snow storm. Sure would be nice to check radar updates while out there plowing the highways with a better radar app. I found redsky weather but its very limited and loads a little slow. Still looking for something like radar now but big enough that I can actually see detail in full screen
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] otakonxxx:
If your s ay ing that the app appears too small on your streak(the top left coner and doesn't extend the full length) it's because the applicagion was made for a different dpi. Changing your dpi will correct thos. Or you can messagw the developer to correct this as alot of apps don't utilize the fukl screen of our streak.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] carhigh:
Thats exactly what im saying. I have emailed the developer but there has got to be some others like it out there. Its the best working radar app i have found, pertaining to load time and details it displays, its just the size needs to be fixed
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] p51d007:
I have the same issue with "Radar Now". It won't scale to the screen size.

Perhaps if everyone emailed the developer, he could update it.

I'm sure he has a small screen, and sized it accordingly.

I installed drivers, multiple versions of Kies...and still nothing. Untill I found the answer, and its going to sound stupid but it worked for both our computers...

Ready?

All we had to do was use the USB ports on the back of the computer. The front ones were not recognizing our phones, switched to the back and BAM, working perfect. Just a tip to try but it worked for both my wife and I and our captivates/PC's.

I have no clue as to the reason behind this, as the ports on the front of the PC's recognize everything else. I learned this from another forum when I was having issues. Something to try for sure for others having issues.
