[Fascinate Themes and Apps] notta:
Thanks Hatespawn!

I did have quite a few colors done before just not complete. My pc was so slow and I'm impatient, in short it got rebuilt and I didn't properly backup things.

Awhile back I actually wanted to create a base package that was neutral. (Well, I wanted to do a lot of things awhile back.) Then create transformation packages that would suit the flavor of the user. I can manipulate any image without issues, it's the 9's that are time consuming and I just can't sit for that long... ;)

Any chance of a community theme project?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
Actually a few of us had discussed the possibility of a group theme a few weeks ago...but the idea got sidetracked/tabled for whatever reason...lol...we hadn't gotten beyond the "hey lets do it!" Phase
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] notta:
lol, I hear ya! It's so easy to get side tracked anymore. :D

Ok, I might of found an quick n painless solution for the pesky 9's. I don't know if this is honeycomb blue, but it's blue.. :)

Strictly a demo for those interested in seeing different colors. Meant only for those running the 6 lock just to be certain. It's not full and a lot of font colors still need changed.

Only includes:

framework-res.apk

twframework-res.apk

LockScreenSettings.apk

Settings.apk

Blue demo - http://bit.ly/g7ESP4

Again only flash this if you are running the neongt 6 lock to avoid possible problems. Well grape fizz 6 lock should work too...
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Hatespawn:
If you want it I do have the zip for your honeycomb blue neonGT that you had up before. Its got all your png and xml edits from before. Just no apps.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] notta:
It would be easier to start new with all sbrissen's new mods anyhow. I quit working on that one because there where a few people planning on releasing there version, so I just threw that zip out in case anyone wanted to sift through it.

I haven't looked around very well but aren't there a few honeycomb themes out already?

If anyone is interested in my previous post with the blue, I have a much more thorough theme together. All font changes done and so far all these apps.

ClockPackage.apk

Contacts.apk

DialerTabActivity.apk

DownloadProvider.apk

JobManager.apk

LockScreenSettings.apk

MediaProvider.apk

Mms.apk

Settings.apk

Interested let me know.. 6 lock, all the same images just reworked to blue.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] RyanBluebirds:
Yeah even though there are several honeycomb themes they are all a little different it seems. id be interested in a honeycomb based off of your neongt as well. the screens from before looked pretty sweet.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Hatespawn:
Mainly the font color scheme, pngs and reworked notification shade from your neonGT are what im a big fan of. The honeycomb blue looks real nice with it. The other themes are very nice but yours has a certain polish to it that attracts me.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] notta:
Well like I said, not sure if it has anything to do with honeycomb just changing some colors. ;)

Fair enough. Thanks for the words Hatespawn.

Sorry I didn't get that blue one posted yet. It's done just need to write up a thread or figure out where to post. (My least favourite part)
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] notta:
I just decided to add the blue version to the op! It's located under latest releases and screens are at the bottom for now.

Sorry about the delay..
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Hatespawn:
Very nice. Thanks.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] RyanBluebirds:
Just got around to flashing the blue. Looks great! I'm using the blue now instead of the green for a while. Is there anyway I could get a version of the mms patch with the blue as well? The only criticism I have is that the secondary text is a little harder to read, more so in the daylight, but that's kinda nitpicking. Nice work!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] exzacklyright:
is 03 - http://bit.ly/i0YiCu the latest va-green neongt merge? Any screenshots of it? Thanks.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] jh180:
Quick question gentlemen, would the green theme work on Super Clean 2.9.2?

I thank you in advance.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Hatespawn:
Yes
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Volones:
notta,

I absolutely love the Neon Blue Theme! The colors are vibrant, the battery charging animation is amazing, and it is by far the most complete and sophisticated theme I have used.

I do have some input, and a possible bug to report though.

First, could you please make the status bar icons a bit larger? I'm on the long side of 40, and am getting to the point that I need reading glasses to see if I'm on a 3G or 1X connection (I also had to use my glasses to figure out what the GPS icon was). Slightly larger icons would be a welcome improvement for me, and I'm assuming, other folks also.

Second, after flashing your theme, my alarm clock has no sound. I regularly use the countdown timer, and it functions correctly, but when it reaches zero, there is no sound as there was before. Also, the smart alarm works perfectly (sound and all), but the regular alarm is dead silent. I've tried to find a setting, but nothing I've found will get the normal alarm sounds to work. I use the alarm clock apk that came from Samsung, and your theme is perfect visually, just need the noise again.

Thank you so much for your hard work!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Hatespawn:
That's very good feedback. Notta was planning on passing the blue theme off to me to make life a bit easier so I'm not sure if he will beat me to it or not. I am currently working on a couple of items with the blue theme(neonBT). I am incorporating Sbrissen's latest 6 lock for starters and I can probably increase the icon size without much trouble. As soon as I have free time after completing my move I will post a new thread for the separate theme.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Volones:
Right on, thanks for the quick reply.

I did try again with the alarm sound, and when I go to choose an alarm tone, I get a choice of where to look (either sounds, or my files). I don't remember this before. Could it be part of the problem? Even when I choose 'sounds' and pick a tone, it still doesn't play anything though. I don't know if I'm helping or just muddying the waters at this point, so I'll be quiet. :)
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Hatespawn:
I don't know that anything in the theme should be affecting that function directly but i will look at that also. What ROM and kernel combination are you running?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Volones:
I'm running SC 2.9, EC10 stock kernel.

Thanks for your help.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Hatespawn:
In your sound settings is volume up for everything including system? I'll be reflashing in a few here to test also.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Volones:
I did check that, and all the volume settings are up.

I'm going to flash to SC 2.9.2, and re-apply the theme on a clean install to see if that helps. I'm not convinced that it isn't something I did wrong as it doesn't seem like anyone else is having this problem. So, I'm going to try to figure it out from my end.

Looking forward to the next update. :)
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Hatespawn:
I can't seem to replicate the issue you're having with SC 2.9.2 voodoo and this theme. Please let me know your result.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Volones:
I got it straightened out. After flashing 2.9.2 voodoo, I was having the same problem (I didn't erase user data, just cleared the cache and dalvic cache). So I took the TW Clock, and reflashed that and it works perfectly. It even uses most of the colors from the theme, I'm just swapping out a few png's to get things to match better. I have no idea what the difference is, nor do I have the ability to "open the hood" and figure it out, but I did get it working so I'm happy with that.

Thanks for all your help, and I'll leave you alone to do important things again.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Hatespawn:
Yeah....important things. Like distracting my daughter enough to get working on neonBT?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] kriddle04:
Trying to use the gestures on lock screen and it never saves them. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Very nice theme though so far. Favorite yet.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
gestures dont work..sbrissen said so when he originally posted the lock mod
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] kriddle04:
Oh ok thank you I just installed and didn't read! My bad.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] kriddle04:
Nitsuj17 plan on updating your gingerbread theme soon?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
yup, massive update tomorrow (hopefully)
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] kriddle04:
Look forward to trying it out!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] notta:
I worked with Hatespawn for a few changes you've addressed. I apologise again as I must of pulled the wrong source for Mms.apk again. That was corrected as well.

Not off hand, but that contained more of a standard check box and a different battery gauge. I cant remember if I did the charge sequence.

I can always re-do the blue theme battery images for the green theme?

Thanks Volones, Sorry about your problems. I was unable to replicate this as well. It looks like Hatespawn is adapting some of those changes, so one way or another we'll get ya sorted.. :)

In reply to GrainOSand's thread. Warm weather equals no more hibernation..

Plus I am a man of many projects, and I always work on what puts the mind at ease.

Thanks for all your work and contributions here nitsuj17! :D

Hatespawn, Again many thanks bud!
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] nitsuj17:
glad to see you still around and active notta :)
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] drblack2013:
I'm running FR008, and I can't find any red status bar icons to flash. I can't get MetaMorph to work, plus flashing is so quick and easy anyway. Anyone know where to get some?
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] zervic:
You can try UOT kitchen...I don't think they have any...if you're looking for stock icons, but red. just pull framework-res.apk or email it to yourself (/system/framework/framework-res.apk) (<- i think, could be a little off because i'm going off memory) unzip it with WinRAR, open up each image with your image manipulation program of your choice, change the color. Easy way for this in photoshop, is to just change the hue/saturation whic, i believe is access through ctrl + u or alt + u. Metamorph won't work because of S-OFF.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] drblack2013:
Thanks! I didn't even think about changing them in the actual zip file.
[HTC Aria Themes and Apps] Noz85:
Post the file if you get it done.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] HAKA:
Hey! I just updated my phone to latest build by SE.

I know some must not be interested. But for all those who want it....it's here!

The firmware is xRecovery enabled, so if you dont like it, you can always go back to your previous Backed-Up ROM!

Sorry for being so late! I have a school life too! :p

UPDATE:

Some new people in here might face some problems on how to update the device.

The simplest solution is here!

1. Root your phone. If you haven't, here's how to.

2. Install xRecovery.

3. Download the Firmware and extract it. Place the folder in /sdcard/xrecovery/backup.

(If you haven't created it, then create it! Don't be a noob! ;) )

IMPORTANT: Put the 4 files in a folder(name it as you wish), it should not be put in any subfolders, and then the folder must be kept at /sdcard/xrecovery/backup

4. Go to Backup and Restore in xRecovery Menu.

5. Go to Restore.

6. You will see the folder name in there.

7. Just select it and enjoy restoring!

DOWNLOAD LINKS UPDATED!(MULTIUPLOAD)

Here it is! Go ahead! Download!

:)

If you face any problems, feel free to ask me!

Here are some visible changes:

Update:

There are 3 more certified firmwares! Maybe a new Kernel in this one? (Check the Attachments!)

Please press "Thanks" button if you like!

Cheers!!

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] -ReaL-:
After all manipulations with firmaware, my phone at all doesn't want to be flashed through SEUS which always writes that is installed last software without possibility of its reinstallation. I dont know what to do...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] muzik_demon:
Thanks

but i think i will wait for my generic update since theres nothing new(except ANT+!!!! and officesuite)

Kernel number remained same in all the updates but there might be subtle changes(like ant+ support) to the drivers
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] ojojoj:
Make backup, then delete everything and clean copy upload for us:) ;)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Sectoras:
What orange means? I changed my SI but i still get no new updates.

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] -ReaL-:
I don't know what changes in this new firmware. I yet haven't seen visible changes. As soon as something new I will see at once I will write.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] stoyandim:

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] karun11:
Thanks for the quadrant test. Can someone list what are the changes? Is the phone faster?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] XperianPro:
Is this good or bad
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] mhyke13ph:
480 and above Quadrant score is already equivalent to JiT performance available un 2.2 right?

my X8 is JiT enabled and Launcher pro is my Homescreen usually i got scores from 480~530

so we have a speedier X8 with this update :eek:
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Boshe:
The download speed is around 20 kbp/s :o
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] 275139568:
had you enabled jit?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] hugerth:
You have answer in backup name:

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] velnens123:
Stupid SE!

That update is SH**! They didnt include dual touch. So no worth downloading.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Boshe:

[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Alihosny:
Does it have arabic language?

It's firing here in egypt.we are getting freedom.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Redpik:
Who uses SE default music player? There are way better options in the market.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] karun11:
I know..but who doesnt like options?:-D
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] karun11:
yea, I know, but who wouldn't like one more option?:-)

I installed Market 2.2.7 and it was working fine,until yesterday. When I start Maket it was just minimizing,I can't open it. I can see in processess but cant work with it. After that I uninstalled updates and again the same.

What's the problem?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] mzmz83:
I tried the the backup.

But when I start, theres an error.

"Checking MD5 sums...

MD5 mismatch!"

It's Done, I copied wrong Folder.:o
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] artoseven:
I think you've changed the name forlder in xrecovery / backup /

so that md5 can no longer legible in the system ....

I also have experienced it time to change the folder name (the name of the backup ROM made by the date and time) and the results were md5 mismatch

I suggest to change again the name of the folder as the original ....

thanks ...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Boshe:
I have one question. I think that my phone is a bit slower with this update. In Quadrant I got scored between 420 and 440. Anyone have score like me?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] kiz1983:
i noticed it too, feels a bit slower.. also, it consumes more space than previous firmware..
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] karun11:
Did you do a backup of apps and then restore it to the new firmware? That's the reason its feeling slower. It should be okay after a few days.

Most people have reported that their devices feel more refined and faster.

@All

Can anyone elaborate on what all is new?

I know we have an office suite now, and a new support app with some battery management tools etc. What else is new?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Vladovski:
hey,

I did everything required (busybox+xrecovery+the folders thing...) after successfully applying the restore i reboot to a looping sony ericsson screen.. its not going any further..

so what's to do??
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] laureus:
Yes, i thought this, too. Quadrant score ist 472 with Jit enabled.

Sometimes the systems is even a bit laggy and reacts with some delay.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Boshe:
After 3 times,I got 440 score. Before that score was 470+
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] ojojoj:
My score is 467 without Jit
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] groovepeppy:
how to find that 2nd and 3rd screenshot in this new firmware?

i can't find it in my phone though i already use SEUS for the latest update?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Boshe:
It's in Support.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] groovepeppy:
too bad i already delete the support to save space :(
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Nikkopt:
Funny.. today i finally rooted my phone, installed JIT, xRecovery and apps2SD, i made backups with both xRecovery and PC companion (who at the time said that no updates were availabe).. I just connected it again to PC companion (3 hours later) and it installed me the 2.1.1.A.0.6 build..
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] groovepeppy:
what's so funny bout that?

if your region already have the updates then your phone will be upgraded whenever you try to update it...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Nikkopt:
"Funny" because i had major problems installing xRecovery and when everything was ok and running smoothly i had to do it all over again (with no problems this time) ;) .. I checked for updates before rooting to avoid this from happening. I find it funny that it did happen :D
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] ripsy:
do you have the update from vodafone PT?

or you change de SI number?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Nikkopt:
I got it from PC Companion, just clicked "update" and the program did the rest.

I don't know if other operators in Portugal got the update too, but i guess so..

edit: nevermind, vodafone is the only operator that sells the X8 in portugal
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] ripsy:
for me Pc companion or SEUS tells me the X8 is updated :confused:
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Nikkopt:
It has been released officially only in some countries, your's will get it as well ;)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] XperianPro:
There were changes in kernel for this update so will be good to update by changing SI not by xrecovery.

Im just saying.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] vince_junior:
if the only change is the battery management thingy (why, some are even reporting quadrant result of 400+ even if jit is enabled after the update), then it's not worth to download and update....
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] karun11:
I have updated and there's nothing new except the two apps and battery management thing. Not worth if u've already modded ur firmware with jit, app2sd etc.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] vince_junior:
was about to ask that. what if, inspite of those limited changes, i want to update, will the following procedure work?

1. backup phone with xrecovery

2. download and update phone

3. install xrecovery, jit and app2sd

4. restore backup from xrecovery

does that procedure work? or should i go through installing application one by one?
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] mewtwo68d:
Some says that this release is faster than the previous one 2.0.1.A.0.47, is it true?

What I see is this new firmware a bit laggy & drops my quadrant score which means the new firmware is slower.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] karun11:
Yes it should work. Just use titanium backup if you want.

@mewtwo

The firmware is not slower, but its not faster too.I get the same quadrant score.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] Boshe:
Just installed again software on my X8 via SEUS,and after installation completes first thing that I noticed is that there is Macedonian language.

About Phone:

Firmware ver : 2.1-update 1

Baseband M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015

Kernel 2.6.29

Build 2.1.1.A.0.6

And other thing that i noticed is that there are installed 2 more applications:

Application Installer and VIVAnews.

:)
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] FCW:
I would just like to add something that might help answer a few questions on here. This differences in performance varies because of a few reasons. One being the apps you install yourself. Every thing you install will have an impact no matter if its good or bad. Also you have to remember for the operators get they're hands on it and customise it just like how we do so that can also effect the final product. finally just remember that every mobile network runs differently, although similar one could only have 2g and another could only run 3g for example. Thats why operators have accredited versions and if you don't use them it will effect the performance of the device.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] FCW:
Another thing to add. SE came in to my work today, when I was playing around with the xperia play prototype the expert there had a look to see if he could fix the market and email issue im having with this rom. He advised that this doesn't have all the features this update should have and advised to do a full reinstall using the official update then root it if you want from there. Either the update is a beta or the operator it came from removed some features that are valuable if you have a fault with some of the stock apps including the market
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] aniket_:
Everything works fine.. but the market..

It works, but app downloads fail... :(

Any solution...
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] XperianPro:
Same for me.
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] ojojoj:
Remove market update
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] aniket_:
Exactly what do u mean ? I have no idea..

The market hasnt been updated to the new greenish one. Its still the old one..
[XPERIA X8 Android Development] ojojoj:
But why you dont use latest (2.3.2) market update?

tried factory reset?

I using this ROM and for me all apps works fine
