Remove Home Screen Page Backgrounds? - Nexus One Themes and Apps

Would it be possible to remove the transparent background from each of the pages of the home screen when zoomed out in the Sense UI?
To see what I mean, look at the outline behind the icons/widgets of each screen in the following picture:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This guy hacked the notifications bar to be transparent for the Sense UI, so I was thinking something like this might be possible too?

Good idea. Seems to be possible, I like the idea anyway.

If it is anything like in Launcher2.apk then it is just an image that is used as the background and can be easily made transparent. The only image I saw in Rosie.apk that could be it was thumbnail_panel.png in drawable-normal-port-hdpi. I have included a Rosie.apk (actually Rosie.zip in the attachment but rename to .apk) with that image made transparent so that you can try it out. I haven't actually flashed any of the Sense UI ROMs for the nexus yet, and probably won't unless I get really bored, but I did dig around its images for theme-ing purposes and figured I would check to see if what you wanted was easily doable.
install with
Code:
adb remount
adb push Rosie.apk /system/app/Rosie.apk
You should first back up your current Rosie.apk so that if this doesn't work, then you can go back to normal.
Code:
adb pull /system/app/Rosie.apk . (period denotes your working directory)
Edit: Also, this isn't really development related, it would go better in the themes section.

Added this to my guide

I'm surprised that worked. The image was the only that looked like it could work, but it was huge and not a .9.png. Huge like 480x762.
It worked which is what counts

Wow, why would you want this o_0
People have weird personal preferences lol
*don't take this post offensively please, but this is a rather odd thing to want to remove.. or even care about at all actually*

Awesome.
This is awesome! Thanks!

I said don't take the post offensively cause it wasn't meant to be an offensive post, I was looking for you to simply explain why you want something as minor as this removed. I wasn't directly meaning calling you "weird", but it seems I'm a douchebag (lol) for asking a question. I don't exactly see why you got so bothered by this. Quite funny to me, actually.

Bump to see if you could modify it for the lastest rom? A17?

http://android-theme-minus.googlecode.com/files/Remove_home_screen_panels.zip
Here is a metamorph file to get transparent home screen panels. It should work with any version that has that image in that location.
Paul, you might want to add this to your OP so that people don't have to scroll to the second page to find it.

How do you install this? Is the Rosie.apk zipped inside?

New rosie buttons(2.1 sense ONLY)-no recovery required-in seconds!

omg, almost forgot, this is ONLY for 2.1 sense
you can view the Rosie.thm in notepad, all the commands seem to be there, i dont know if you can edit it and resave it as a .thm, so i dont know if you can make this work on 1.5. why not give it a try?
so i started messing around with metamorph, and i came out with this, and actually kinda like it.
its really easy to install
download the zip to anywhere on your sd card
download and install "metamorph" from the market
start meta, let it run its check (for root acess and the like)
then click on pick theme, navigate to the zip you downloaded, let it install (5s tops) and now you have a new espresso rosie! the blocks expand when you press them!!
future releases? any ideas? suggestions? requests?
this was built off of one someone posted a looong time ago, if you see this and wanna PM with your name and a link, ill gladly give credit!
this is my first mod ever, i know its lame, but im working on it, ok?
anyone have a strip down of the status bar? ill have fuuun with that one!!!!!!!
the best part of metamorph is, the fact that it only affects the files you tell it too. for example, most mods include an edit to the status bar AND rosie, because their both connected somehow. but with meta, theres no update signing or anything, its just putting in the right commands and images, and no need to boot recovery!!
i hope you enjoy!!

Tested and working. I see potential in this. Anyway you might share what you edited in the rosie.thm? Are there other modifications we could do?
Regardless thanks!

like i said, this is built off something someone else posted. i know you can view the .thm in notepad, i dont know if you can save, but i do see the commands, and a little research im sure i could get it down.
this is what the current thm says, i didnt touch it
Sense 2.1
any
Rosie.apk
/system/app/
i think its commands for meta, right?
telling it ot make sure we're running Sense, and 2.1
any version (the post i found this in mentioned you could do this in any 2.1 sense rom)
telling ot to push rosie to /system/app/
i think meta takes care of the rest. you just have to know what your running, what your pushing, and where your pushing it too...saves the hassle of signing and flashing an update, and COMPLETELY avoids the use of ADB
thank god,i never understood that

Not 100% worded correctly.
Rosie is the apk that will be edited, and it's located in /system/app
In the folder along with the scriptare folders that show the path inside the apk, and the files that will replace the existing ones. The script tells metamorph where to copy/replace the files in the folders to.

ahhhhhhh, so in theory....ifbwe ever found the correct xml file that sets the.params for the trackball, we could just meta it in....hint hint...

Unfortunately the xml files are coded/in binary
So even if you uncode them with that one XMLS blah blah .jar,
you shill wouldn't be able to make it work on the phone....
IDK i'm probably wrong though. Probably WAY more in depth than that.
really cool! is it me or is the right design slightly off center compared to the left design?

[Request] Clear lockscreen w/ rain drops on glass look.

Hey guys, i just wanted to see if anyone was up for the task of trying out somthing i would really love to see on my phone. I love the rain and rainy days and I would love to have a clear lockscreen that looks like it has a dew-ie like look to it. Anyone think that would be possible?
For clarification:
The look im going for is how your window looks like on a rainy day^^
This would be neat. I would have to learn how to make lockscreens. My new task.
this is what ive got so far, I need to adjust the colors a little but this is actually kind of tough because water is clear so I will work on it a little more when I get home tonight but feel free to try it out it's for 2.1 and flash it just like regular
this has to include the com.htc.resources so if you have any mods to your taskbar then this will change some of the icons.
I am not responsable if you mess up you mess up your phone.

I dont understand, why would that mess with com.htc.resources.apk when lockscreen_topedge.png is in HtcLockScreen.apk? That should be the only file you're messing with.

Because to get a completely clear lock you have to modify lockscreen_archglass_top, lockscreen_archglass_bottom, and I think its called lockbar.png which are all located in the com.htc.resources.apk otherwise you still get the bar/arch (depending on if you use espresso or regular rose) across the lockscreen

Couldn't you just make this in photoshop with a transparent bg, stick it in your drawable folder in framework and push framework without editing anything else?

In 1.5 this was the case as all the images where stored in htclockscreen.apk>res>drawable 320x480 however in 21 they spread the png's for everything all over the place. That's why to get it completely clear you have to edit files in com.htc.resources.apk also because of the way 2.1 is set up it took like 2 weeks to figure out how to do it because the xml code had to be edited. If you think I'm wrong do it yourself the way you think. I was just trying to be helpful

Oh oh oh i just thought of it. how about the animation on a rainy day for the weather widget (not the actual animation, just the image it pops out). That look is perfect too, just without the windshield wiper.
Question, the lockscreen you made is just overlapping on a previous lockscreen picture i had before, how do i clear that one up?

if you where using a jpg or something like that then you need to go in and clear the lockscreen cache by doing this is adb
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /data/misc/lockscreen
rm *
cd /system/customize/resource
rm htc_wallpaper*
exit
then go in and flash the clear lockscreen

Rainy Day Wallpaper Rotary Lock
Here is a link to a MetaMorph for applying the "rainy day" wallpaper to the rotary lockscreen (textless version). I do NOT plan any making any other versions / iterations of this lockscreen, however, if you like this as is, please feel free to use / enjoy. This should be compatible with any 2.1 based Sprint ROM that has been deodexed.
XML Control File <--- Apply using the latest MetaMorph application
Your phone may freeze when applying, and when coming back up, the MetaMorph may not have fully applied. If this is the case, re-run MetaMorph, and select the 'framework-res' sub-theme, apply, and reboot.
Initial boot will take a while as your cache is rebuilt.

[THEME] Desire Notification Bar for CM-5.0.7-T3-N1

For the community because I couldn't find any around.
24/05 - An updated framework-res.apk ONLY for CM-5.0.7-T3 ONLY! Apply this asper instructions below and change the clock and notification text colour to your preference in the Spare Parts app. CM-5.0.7-T3 ONLY. The 3G icon fix by suffeks is included.
OLDER - An updated framework-res.apk and services.jar based on CM-5.0.7-T2-N1 with the black Desire status bar, Desire icons, semi-transparent pull-down menu (framework-res.apk) and white notification bar text (services.jar).
Edit: I don't intend to maintain this or turn it in to a theme or morph. I just threw it out there. Kang it.

Fair enough on the section... even though it's compiled rather than a theme... I could have put it elsewhere. The mods are pretty friendly round here though, so no harm no foul.
Didn't mean to step on your territory either... I couldn't find a morph for 5.0.7 that didn't break services.jar. Sorry if I didn't look hard enough. I take no creative credit, nor do I intend to maintain, I just thought it filled a gap. Perhaps I was wrong. If this is the case the mods can delete.

It's be awesome if pershoot would combine this + 15 apps + invisible lock screen + custom message.

can this be flashed via recovery?
or do i have to push the 2 files to the appropriate places via ADB?
thanks in advance
EDIT: had to push the 2 files using ADB; works great, using it on nightly from yesterday
Nice, been looking for just the bar.
Ok, stupid question time, I have adb set up on my laptop, but the power cord is fried, need to wait for the replacement to come in. Could I just use root explorer to copy the files over? I'm guessing I'd need to mount r/w first though.

You can use root explorer after mounting /system as rw yes (do this with root explorer). Copy the files as in post #1 and reboot.
Bug
This causes the market to FC every time it tries to install anything.
I've wiped and reflashed cyan 507 t2 and all is ok. as soon as i push servicer.jar and the framework-res.apk it causes market to FC when it tries to install...
Using Root Explorer kept putting me in a boot loop, the phone reboots as soon as I try to replace the framework-res file. I threw adb on my store's pc, got it working just fine that way, thanks for this.
@adam, go to settings -> applications -> Manage applications and go to Market. Uninstall updates, and everything should work fine.

Yes, colours, depth, size and transparency. In fact they're better optimised than the stock images. This was just a stop-gap until somebody releases a 5.0.7 morph or theme though.

Bio-Hazard Lock Screen (100% DONE)

I will be working on a fully loaded Bio-Hazard theme for the next few days but atm I have just been working on the lock screen. Note that this lock screen is not "as is" for when teh theme comes out, its subject to change. But for now enjoy the sneak peek of the lock screen.

And a couple others that escape me.
I didn't forget you! I just have a massive headache and I cant think straight. Ill put you on the list as your name comes up in my head, or PM me.
Can anyone help me. When I'm trying to change the "unlock" text it makes me either get rid of the unlock text or gets rid of my background, and makes the back ground transparent. I'm willing to sent the apk if anyone is willing to fix this for me. Thanks

I've never gotten the backgrounds to stick. That's why if u notice on both of my themes I post the wallpaper for people to download and use.
The lockscreen wallpaper is controlled by the keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml in the res folder. You have to change the background line to reference the jpg. Go grab the one that JsChisurf made up.

why did you have to rename it? And Thanks
alo is koni's awesome rom but he had an issue with the vanilla lockscreen so he put in the htc one. To enable the vanilla lock you had to unload the htc one.

cause that has to be renamed or deleted or u will not be able to see anything but that lockscreen type. remember this is a modified version of flipz vanilla lockscreen and to get it to work the htc version must not be there. so the two options are to either delete or rename. If u install flipz flahable zip for the initial vanilla lockscreen it will delete it for you.

Htc Binary Clock

I saw the other day on the main page of the forums a Binary Clock for WinMo phones. I wanted it really bad but I have the Hero. So I did the obvious thing... I made one myself. Nothing too fancy just a few tweaks of the standard HtcClockWidget.apk
Huge thanks to Regaw for some troubleshooting tips and to antaed for the great idea.
This one is in black and green but I can change the color to match whatever people want.
Rename the file to HtcClockWidget.apk (caps sensitive) and push to your /system/app folder on phone.
please note this is my first time editing an apk file.

Looks great! Any chance you could do one for the smaller 1x2 widget?
sure give me a little bit and i'll have one for you any specific color you want the lights to be?
all finished. the original .apk i posted now includes both 2x4 with weather and 1x2 smaller widget.
any chance you might be willing to make one for me in blue? I would be forever indebted to ya!
not a problem.
Ah dude that looks awesome..Is it an add on to the original clocks or does it replace?

it replaces but only the flip with the weather and the 1x2 digital not quite sure how to make it an add on yet. maybe someday in the future. also i can make it to one or the other so it doesn't have to be both. (ie Binary flip w/ normal digital or normal flip with Binary digital) so if you don't want it to cover both just let me know and i can make one specifically for you.

if you could take a screen shot and post it that would be awesome. i would have installed on my phone and taken one but the battery is about to die.

I'd be glad to...i've just never done it before, I'll look for a how-to and do it...unless it's a quick answer and you could tell me here...

if you have android SDK open cmd prompt and go to the tools folder where you have it installed (most likely cd\android-sdk-windows\tools)
plug in your phone and set as charge only
then type adb remount
then adb devices
then ddms
that will open a program
click on your phones serial number and up in the toolbar under device will be screen capture. just make sure your phone screen is on and on the page you want to capture. then save it wherever and post.
pretty simple

Here we go, didn't know screenshots were that easy!
I actually installed PicMe from the Market. That is most likely why mine showed up as a thumbnail instead of a big inline picture like yours.

its always good to have a some way to take a screenshot of your phone. just incase you run into an issue you can take a pic and post it. every little bit of info can help people solve a problem.
(merged screenshots to one post)
i want this clock, but for some reason when i push it via adb it takes all the other htc clocks out. do i have to be using a specific rom? currently im running darchstars newest and same result for aloysious :/
