Things to verify before flashing any theme

Things to verify (for anyone who wants) to flash any theme

NOT

specifically designed for this ROM:

1. Download the needed theme

2. Open in any archiver, say winrar

3. Go to /system/framework folder

4. Check what files are there.

Strong recommendation: Do

NOT

flash the theme if it contains any JARs (unless u are sure of what u r doing). There should be only these two files (either of them or both):

a. framework-res.apk

b. twframework-res.apk

Any JARs that are present in /system/framework folder can change/update the overall functions present in the ROM, that may include but not limited to:

a. lock screens

b. haptic feedback

c. 2g/3g switch

d. button lights fix

e. and the list goes on...

As usual, please take a nandroid backup in case the theme causes unseen FCs and bootloops.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
I have created a new version of settings app (v5.5), in lines of blue theme.

Anyone wanting to could try it out, and let me know the feedback so I can improve it further. I used the icons from this thread.

Installation procedure:

1. Download/Copy the file to ur phone

2. Use an app like Root Explorer to copy the file to /system/app folder

There is no need to reboot phone.

Edit: Please let me know if u want in other colors. I can update the same icons into the following colors:

1. Blue (in this post itself)

2. Cyan post #53 in this thread

3. Green (post #9 in this thread)

4. Purple post #37 in this thread

5. Red (post #12 in this thread)

6. Yellow

Here you go for the green one.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] rjblack11:
this developing thing blows me away. its like getting a new phone everyday for free(except donations).
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Yes. My captivate seems to be a new phone literally every other day with its cool looks that blow it away. And dilli's system in the background keeps things smooth.

is there a way to get a blue or white clock into the blue theme for 5.6? My clock stayed green when I installed the new blu5.6 theme. Thanks, the rom is great btw
[Captivate Themes and Apps] di11igaf:
There will be one up later hopefully

if not take services.jar from green 5.6 ( wipe or no wipe)- its white

Found in /system/framework
[Captivate Themes and Apps] crawt1:
Change theme back to original 5.6

Flashed stock 2.1 Captivate to 5.6 and it's great, like a whole new phone that not only is cosmetically pleasing but also functions 10 x better. Thx and a donation coming your way...

is this thread just for 5.4 or is it going to be for all the di11igaf roms?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
All roms by dilli

Yup...all of his roms...and all of the various themes that are made for it and those others we have found that work well with it...and anything else that is theme related I suppose...

[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Good to see u r starting ur experimenting :-) Nice theme elements u selected, compliment each other quite well.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
It won't work, unless they may have added support to this ROM too now. There are like 3-6 types of battery icons on this thread that u cud try re-using.

Also, search for any JPY compatible themes for any battery icons u may like. U cud try copying the battery icons from there to this framework file. Just ensure u have correct number of images. There should be 100 for charging, 100 for discharging, and a couple more for like full, empty, etc notifications making them ~204 in all.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ap1618:
Correct, it didnt work!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Lol

Here are names of some themes u could try looking for icons:

1. Cozmic76_v5

2. DDJP6__Androdena_Galassia_Proper_Optimised_AOSP_Extended_Circle

3. dena.tek.charge.mod.v4

4. Generation_X_v2.0B_JPUXY_JS3_NOBOOT

5. Jumba's_NeonGT_2.0_core

6. Sensation_v1.1_Andromeda

Search the forums for them.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ap1618:
still searching...

but hahaha, for #5 the only place its listed in all of forums is your post! :D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ap1618:
looks to me as it is, but is this theme compatible?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=912656
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
I am not sure. Download and check the framework-res file for number of battery images present. I would STRONGLY NOT recommend using any theme not for ours since it would mess up. U could try copying the images into our framework-res and using it.

Also, please, repeat, please take a nandroid backup in case u wanted to revert.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
I think its time we updated the name of the thread to something like 'Themes for dilli's ROMs'
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ap1618:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=864112

this theme says its compatible with any XXJPY ROM. should I try it?!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Not just this, in general, compatible themes should work, but sometimes they tend to alter some functionalities like taking off 2g/3g switching capabilities etc. Make sure u do NOT flash any jars in the framework folder when applying them. I normally copy ONLY framework and twframework files.

Edit: Doc's ROMs do not have the 2G/3G toggle the last time I checked (I think I last checked in Jan/Dec).
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ap1618:
Yikes! there's SO MANY jar files in there I dont know what they do!

screen cap attached.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Take a nandroid backup. Then copy all EXCEPT THE JARs. It should work.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ap1618:
so just the two APKs?

what about the twframework.jar?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
The framework folder contains only two APKs if u take out the jars - framework-res and twframework. U would need both 'cos certain elements like toggles in pull down are present in the twframework. framework-res contains others like battery mods, etc.

U could copy the apks from the apps folder too, but I would recommend u check the apps u may want to overwrite and overwrite only those u want to.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] WillyWonka23:
Alright awesome question I should already know the answer to. What program should I use to grab system files from my phone? I got Android Commander but it is glitchy.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Root Explorer
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ap1618:
I tried the frameworks only. It worked. Thanks!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] WillyWonka23:
I was afraid you would say that. I'll think about it because it isn't free.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Isn't there a free version of root explorer?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
No, but there is an app called Super Manager that works for free. The UI sucks, imo, but it's free.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] WillyWonka23:
Ah, okay cool. Thanks guys I'll give it a try :)

Edit: I am able to copy files from the root of my phone but I can't copy them back to replace the application icons. How do I change the permissions of my root from read-only?

I am trying to change the Browser.apk and the Mms.apk file icons to blue or grey to match the Market.apk
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ap1618:
hey Diablo, why did you say dont copy jars?

if I dont they seem to take away "features" from the theme... what are the adverse effects?

thanks
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
jars contain data like extended power menu, 2g/3g switch etc. So I don't meddle with them.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] ProBoner:
puffin, that honeycomb theme looks really slick but there's a problem. The text on the items in "add to homescreen" is black on black... do you know how to fix that?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] bclark:
You sir are the ****! Thank you. The blank Android was the one I was working on too.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] dethtek:
Just flashed the black theme. One problem, though. There are only four options for lock screens, and all of those are wrong. selecting android unlock gets me rotary. Samsung = android. Epic = puzzle. Puzzle = samsung. Tried rebooting and no go. Reflashed theme and still no go. Everything else seems to be functioning properly.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
I'll check it out today when I get a chance. It was just quick ports last night and I didn't get to check everything.

haha. Didn't mean to steal your thunder.

Sorry about that. Didn't get to check everything. I'll check it out later when I get a chance.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] dverse:
Great work Puffin... let us know when that lock screen issue is fixed and I'll be trying out the black one
[Captivate Themes and Apps] dverse:
@Puffin

Any chance you could see about porting this one ?

MattedBlues
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
dl'ing now.

edit: i downloaded a few different ones on there. None of the ones I dl'ed had that specific theme. Same color, but different icons and such. Still trying to find the right one, but not as straightforward a port as SGS themes.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] francous:
that one is real nice.. i might have to flash that puppy as well!..

Goood find! :D

Megaupload is having issues...

Just an FYI - it seems that Megaupload is having issues. One of their post-download pop-ups attempted to install malware on my machine. The URL was to a cuvce.com, which claims to have a recommended update for my browser and had one of those annoying persistent pop-up windows that can't be killed unless you accept it.

You may want to consider an alternate site for your files until this clears up.

*sigh* In the meanwhile, I guess I really can't run without NoScript enabled.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Try this: Create a free MU account, and use their 'Mega Manager' tool. Its a move convinient way to download.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
Trigger theme port. Still got a couple things to do, but nearly complete.

NOT 100% COMPLETE!! Do not complain, rather let me know if something needs fixed...

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=JIJ99BUG

I will take another look and try to fix the Black Android and ValleMod ports tomorrow.themes
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Theme looks awesome! Cud u add some numbers to the battery indicator. Please.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] dethtek:
Just flashed the trigger theme and it looks great. The puzzle unlock is kicking rad.

A big thanks goes out to yall for porting these themes. Your work is appreciated.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] WillyWonka23:
Now this theme really compliments the black. I really like it. I will be poking around on this one to help out with it.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ProBoner:
I flashed back to the stock theme from the vallemod one, but that left a few nice details behind. My facebook on launcher pro looks awesome now :D

Some of the lock screens looked really good too, I'll probably flash it again to have a better look once the text issue is sorted. Thanks for taking some time on these puffinNugz! That trigger theme looks sweet too, I may have to make a hybrid of the two :D
[Captivate Themes and Apps] WillyWonka23:
I noticed that on the puzzle lock screen the lock icon where you drag to is lower than it should be. That image should be raised a little to match up with the lock screen release area. I really like being able to drag the messages from the lock screen :) Great job on it!

And as diablo mentioned earlier, if you can please put the battery level % on the icon. Please :)

Edit: Looking at the valeymod version it looks like your puzzle lock screen is warped a little, which explains what I was seeing. :)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
This generally happens when the image size is bigger or smaller than the ones we use in our ROM. I faced this issue once earlier and realized images were bigger. This is something we should look out for when porting roms.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
right on. would the #'s look better blue or black? Also, what about the dropdown menu. i'm so-so on the white background. Ideas?

i'll try to figure out what needs adjusted on the lockscreens.

Thanks for the input.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] dverse:
Why not make the dropdown like the stock on di11is...its ridiculous and works great
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Any color is fine, as long as they are contrasting to the color of the icon for better visibility.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
batt preview. you like? im about to go to lunch. should be done an hour or so later. Hopefully the text doesn't look to small...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
For here, they look good, but since the image gets smaller on phone, can't say if they'd be comfortable to read at a quick glance.

How abt increasing the text size a little so the 2 digit numbers use the amount of space used by 3 digits, and replace 100 by say 'F'.

Edit: If possible, cud u make it blinking (like dilli's 7.0 default theme has battery blinking once it gets to 5% and less) from 15%. I do not know how to do this though.

Attached image. Don't laugh at it; made best use of the only available editing tool on my work system - MS Paint.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
More choices. Keep in mind that as the battery goes down, so does the white. Probably be best at the lower part of the icon.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Awesome graphics designer u r becoming :)

I am attaching my picks. U cud take either based on how it looks from ur perspective.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
updated with a bigger bolder on the bottom...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Yes! This is perfect!!! Thanks Puffin.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
Right on. Give me a bit...
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
per request, version with accurate batt mod. Battery is the only difference, for now.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZKMNMO1R
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
The battery color is yellow. Looks like at some percentage the color is changing.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
That's how it was before. That little blue glow turns green then yellow, then red. I just followed the pattern...

The blue digits didn't look good when the little "glow" changed.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Oh. Its kinda 'invisible' in yellow. But should be ok. Atleast will stop me seeing at my battery till it actually turns red. Good work mate.

Edit: The blue border around text fields is lovely.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
Right on. I'm always up for suggestions, tho. You may or may not like 10%-15%. It looks kinda cool on the comp screen, but not sure yet on the phone. Let me know. Also, 0-15 has the red glow, 16-25 has orangish/red glow, 26-55 is yellow to gold, 56-60 is green, then the rest are blue.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
What do u think of this interval?

0-19 => red glow

20-49 => <any visible shade, say orange shade>

50-100 => blue
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
Yeah, I thought about changing it. The original interval is kind of crazy. Just wanted to see how it would turn out this way first.

I'll make some changes this weekend.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] xdahgary:
How about blue all the way down to 15 and red at 15 to 0?

Blue theme for Di11igaf's ROM v7 - version 1

For di11igaf's ROM v7

Took the elements from v5a created for ROM v6, and data transfer icons and pull-down toggle elements from "PuffinNugz" blue theme.

This version does not contain any apps. It has only the framework-res and twframework-res files.

Special thanks to PuffinNugz for:

1. data transfer icons

2. pull-down toggle elements

hey guys i know that there was a port of this theme http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=958788 to our phones but when i flashed the port i couldnt see any contect menus and my swipe would no longer would which is odd. so i reverted back to stock theme for v7. I was wondering if either someone fixed that and i just didnt see it or, if someone would mine making me a CWM flashable zip of the bar icons for the battery and the signal bars and signal type letters ( E,3G,H etc).
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
It says

Working on:

*Darkys 9.3 JS5 Rom (created on this!)

*Serendipity i9000 ROM

*Jimmy's ROM 6.3

*Doc's RomKitchen

*Tricky103 Essential Rom v1.6 XFJS3

*Paragon 6.0 JS3

*firefly 2.2 and 2.3

I would recommend having a look at this post before flashing any themes not designed for this rom. Link
[Captivate Themes and Apps] HaiKaiDo:
This theme was ported to our phones. Here in this post, in this thread.

one post later he acknowledged the menu problem. I searched but i didnt see anything about a fix.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] diablo009:
Well, they may have ported it from 9000 to Captivate, but, if u noticed some ROMs do not have some features our ROM has like 2g/3g switch, etc. So if u want to flash this theme:

1. Download the theme

2. Open the zip in winrar

3. Go to the folder /system/framework and delete all ".jar" files. Leave only the framework-res and twframework-res files in this folder.

4. Flash the theme
[Captivate Themes and Apps] WillyWonka23:
Wish I saw this post before I flashed a theme with a system folder full of .jars. haha

Hey diablo, do you know where I can edit the popup window when you long press on the screen on the Zeam launcher? I have black text on black and I would like to fix that. I'll keep looking and edit this post if I find it.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] charlier1977:
Not only that but can we get the themes catagorized in a list similar to the Captivated ROMS and Guides list was done? One post containg a list of the different themes and other mods specifically for this line of ROMS.

I have been so comfortable with pele's black theme I haven't even been checking the theme threads all that much, lol. Did you try out the two Puffin ported?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] PuffinNugz:
I was thinking about redoing some of my earlier ports (Mixed Nugz, Steel blue, etc) to make them work with 7.x. It's quicker and easier to do that then fix a couple things in my newer ports. However, I am still working on those little by little. Made a couple changes to the trigger theme. Also have a version that i'm using now. It has the trigger icons on top of the other elements from the stock dark and blue theme di11i originally put on 7.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] HaiKaiDo:
.

hey puffinNugz. There were 2 themes that you ported a while back. There was a blue one and a black one.

but its got some issues. like menus being all black and whatnot. Would you mind fixing this? and i also have a small request. is there anyway you could give me a cwm flashable zip for the current lockscreen on 7.1. I was thinking this way if i flash another theme and hate the lock screen, i can use the one from 7.1 which I LOVE.

Instructions to update battery icons

Instructions to update battery icons:

Software I used:

Archival software - winrar

1. Copy the framework-res.apk from phone to ur computer

2. Open it in winrar (screen 1)

3. Go the \res\drawable-hdpi-v4 folder in it (screen 2)

4. Open the folder containing the battery icons

5. Select all the icons in this folder, drag & drop them into winrar window (screen 3)

6. Close winrar. Data is auto saved.

7. Copy the file to ur phone.

8. Manually copy the framework-res.apk file to /system/framework folder on ur phone.

9. Don't do anything else here after copying it. And don't panic if any app forecloses. This is normal. Long press the power, and click on 'reboot'.

As usual, all disclaimers apply. And it is always a good idea to backup ur framework-res.apk first, in case u needed to revert back.
