The download for all of the skins is the apk file, is it possible that your PC is treating it as a zip file and saving it as such?

I have seen that happen before.

If you download the file for the green skin it should be Uber_Green.apk

If your computer is saving it as Uber_Green.zip or Uber_Green.apk.zip just rename it to the correct name and try it.

Hope that helps.

Apk files

Ive never donwloaded apk files before. Ive always dealt with zip files being flashed. Is there another way to "download" these files? I know the file is on my sd card, now how do I go about setting it in my skin folder?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] gadget!:
Assuming you are using a Z based ROM...

Just browse to the file using Root Explorer, Asrto (or whatever you use for a file manager) and tap on the apk file to install it.

Then you will need to go to personalize - skin to apply it.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] tgearman:
Gadget! these skins are amazing work and are most appreciated. As stated earlier, your attention to detail are second to none. Please continue to apply your skills to this craft and grind out some more skins as time permits.

Best regards.

Yes im running warmz on my EVO.

Ill try the astro file mananger so once installed via astro it will appear with the rest of my skins?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] donnyespo:
ok so now ive gone into astro and dont see an "install" option thefile is there once i long press i see extract and tried that no luck....
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] rusty2663:
You should just tap it then it will give you 2 options one is browse file and the other one I can't remember...its the other one...it then takes you to the package installer
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] donnyespo:
IM using astro file manager and once I select "gears" file it give me like 4 other folders non are to install.

I'm running myns warm twopointtwo z on my Dinc. I had this happen to me tonight. The time on the clock was nowhere near the correct time in my notification bar. I was just wondering if anyone else has seen this.

Great work otherwise. Thanks for putting in the time on these.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] gadget!:
That has nothing to do with the skin, all the skin is is different images and colors. It has no controll over the time on the phone. I'm running the same ROM as you.

That is strange though, I've never seen that before.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Fr3sh2De4th:
Heres that white circle battery. I havn't the slightest clue where I downloaded it from But I'm 98% sure it used to work with one of Myn's old roms

I personalized my skin to slate but,I think I like what came with the ROM better.

hey sorry i borrowed you img but could you by chance make a flipclock with the dusk clock and the gears clock like the one i did above? if you want ill do ill the pngs and send them i just dont know how to do the rest -_-
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] thabroncs:
Thanks can't wait to try em
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] whojabacod:
GREAT!, however would it also be possible to incorporate the stock green colors instead of the nils, teal color and possible a curved lock screen slide to resemble more stock apperance
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] gadget!:
Not sure where you are getting the teal color from but more than likely it is from the ROM you are using framework files.

The skin doesn't replace any images and a lot of images from your ROM ate still used.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] aostl:
Any chance of getting a theme that looks like the incredible revolution theme with the black HTC Widgets? Would be cool
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] J Ellis:
nice work. really appreciate the work on them, loving the dusk ones
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] gadget!:
I could make a skin with the dusk clock but it wouldn't be a flip clock. No matter what skin you use, when you make the clock flip it uses the images from the HTC Clock.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] gadget!:
Skins are a lot different than themes, no Widgets are changed in a skin.

Also, there is already a revelition skin out there.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] gadget!:
Thank you.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] brandonkill02:
oh ok so that would be the reason why when i tried to repack the apk it would flip and show a part of the dusk clock in the background but the htc clock would stay on top yeah i wouldn't mind it not flipping if you would do that would be appreciate it

How do you go about deleting a skin?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] wdfowty:
Just delete the corresponding apk. You can find the file name from the download, and use astro or any other file explorer to remove it.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] gadget!:
I owe you an apology, I downloaded the skin and opened it up and you were right...

The number nine was wrong in the skin!

I have fixed it and re-uploaded it, if you still want to use it just download it again and it will work right now.

See above, and thanks for pointing it out.

The proper way to delete a skin is to make sure you have a different skin applied and then go into the skins menu like you are going to chang skins, slide to the one you want to delete and press [menu] [delete]

then just tap on the skin(s) you want to delete and it will put an X on them and then just hit the delete button.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] td1320:
Hey gadget, can you checkthat Uber Green apk again? It wont instal now. I uninstalled the old one and tried the new one but it errors out. I reinstalled the old one and it installed. Not sure whats wrong with it. Did you close it up?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] td1320:
Also if you try to install the APK you want to delete, it will take you to the Install page but instead of install it will say Uninstall since it's currently installed at the time. Not sure which way is the best but thats what I found.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] renzo.olivares:

Hi,

The other day, the question was posed to me on twitter if you can use Tinychat on the MT4G. So I tried it. You can use it but not with your phone cam. It doesn't recognize your phones front camera (or back) as a web cam, but you can use your Mic and type and see and hear everyone else. I was wondering if anyone else would like a tinychat app where you can use your front camera, and if there's any App devs reading this maybe you can look into making one (if it's at all possible). I for one would love a fully functioning tinychat app. What does anyone else think?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dg1424:

[HTC Vox] Gikoskos:
does this SPL has anything to do with it?
[HTC Vox] tobbbie:
The SPL (secondary Program loader) is the part of software in the boot process that loads the operating system or uploads a new one. If you follow the "soft SPL" or "Jump SPL" method of replacing the SPL temporarily you cannot kill the device.

Avoid the "hard SPL" if you come across this. You must be well aware of what you do and if not then you could really kill the device.
[HTC Vox] Gikoskos:
thanks tobbie!! really helpful
[HTC Vox] Addicted2xda:
AFAIK you don't need to jump / HSPL for WM Standard devices. It is required for WM Pro devices (correct me if I am wrong).

A piece of warning, make sure that your phone is not network locked (i.e. it is not SIM locked), because then you need to Unlock your phone first before you flash the ROM. Otherwise your phone will become unusable.

SIM unlocking is done in this forum by some people, but it is not free :p

Also be aware that flashing a custom ROM technically voids your warranty.
[HTC Vox] tobbbie:
The SPL has to allow the flashing of a non CID matching or a non signed ROM. This is done by either Super-CID (on older devices), Gold Card (still needing a valid signed ROM) or bypassing the onboard SPL with a patched SPL. The latter can be done either "soft" - i.e. temporary in RAM (aka "jump" SPL) or permanently (aka "hard" SPL) by flashing the patched SPL to the device.

For Vox you need at least jump SPL (I would prefer this as it does not kill anything) as the CID unlocking is not possible for free.

Commercial Services offer a complete unlock (CID and SIM) for about 10 GBP

I'm not sure when this started or if it started right after I did something. If I try to download anything such as an e-mail attachment I get a force close and the dowload gets hung up at the start.

I have tried Miren, xScope, DolphinHD, and the stock browser. Opera won't even launch. I tried this all again after doing the "full reinitialization" and got the same failures.

Anyone seen this?

Clutching at straws here... Maybe your SD card is faulty. Maybe try to a full reinitialization with the SD card removed.

Or better yet, download the newest firmware (2.1.4) and install it through the recovery menu (vol+ while device is booting up).

Hi All,

I tried searching for a possible answer to this issue and couldn't find a solution, so here I am asking for your help:

I can make and receive calls fine, but the other person on the other end of the phone don't seem to hear me clearly most of the times and it is very annoying!

I am running CM6 Stable at the moment.

This issue started when i upgraded to CM7 nightly and also updated HBOOT to 0.35.

But then I rolled back to CM6 but still on hboot o.35 and I am still getting the same issue.

Any help/suggestions/direction would be appreciated.

I bought my phone cash, thinking that if I did I wouldn't have to get the 25 dollar per month internet, but the guy who I was dealing with on the phone trying to get the basic internet working was talking smack about "Why would someone NOT want 3g on their smartphone?!"

So I ask you guys, do you leave 3g on constantly, why or why not, and if you do what kind of battery life do you get? The 10 dollar internet never worked for me, and I rarely use 3g because of battery drain, just for tethering or big files, though I seem to have wifi around half the time anyways. EDIT: Also, what are you using, stock 2.1, 2.2, or a custom rom, and if a rom which one?

Personally I think the edge service is fast enough that I haven't really cared too much, I just wouldn't mind drawing on some other opinions and thoughts. Maybe I am one of the few smartphone owners who doesn't constantly play with my phone, but if I did I would want the battery to last long enough to play with it..

Edit:

Oh, and in advance, I rarely post here so I don't know if questions like this provoke flame wars or end up through the butterfly effect making small children in india cry themselves to sleep at night.. either way, no flaming please, just curious, thought it may be interesting, and thought it would be a fun thread

Hmm, interesting replies and statistics so far, when I was in Daytona I think that I had significant drain because the 3g coverage was spotty at best, but I haven't tried keeping it on since I moved to jacksonville, where the coverage should be much better.

Question I wish I had asked in the original post, are you stock, if so 2.1 or 2.2, or do you use a rom, and if so which one? The guys claiming over 24 hours versus people getting 17.. quite a discrepancy, and I will bet this has something to do with it(besides just amount of use).

I am using 2.2 bionix V rom, and I get 18+ hours of use out of it on my heavier use days, though I think some corrupt files on my phone have gotten my mediaserver system process using tons of processor, killing my battery quicker. I am going to go ahead and keep it on 3g for a few days, and see what kind of difference it makes. Thanks for the feedback.
