NexTheme Keyboard...

Does anybody out there know how I can just apply the skinned android keyboard without applying the entire theme?
Thank you.

I had the same question posted in his thread with ni answer yet. All I need to know is which apk the stock android keyboard is...I don't know which one. I'm used to Sense which is clicker.apk for calibration and HTC_IME.
If anyone knows it would be appreciated.

Open he heme in winrar go into the framework.apk in th keyboard image and extract it... get the original theme from enoms thread and put the image in the dame place on that theme
Resign the framework.apk then resign the .zip

I don't have the 1.2 keyboard though. Can't seem to find it searching. Can someone post a link to it or a link to the keyboard apk?
Thanks.

I did this by accident but it works. I flashed CyanogenMod 5.0 Beta 3 and then the Googgle add on. Then I flashed the extra memory zimage. Next I flashed the NexTHEME but found it didn't work with the memory hack. So, I flashed back to CM 5.0 B3 (only CM 5.0 B3, not the Google add on). I ended up with the NexTHEME keyboard skin on CM 5.0 B3. If you flash the Google add on, you will end up with the stock keyboard. I flashed the memory zimage back. Next I used the MetaMorph app and added the black notification bar. I did not wipe between any of the flashes. So far, I've had two random reboots in the last 48 hours. Other than that, things are working very well on my phone.

Okay... open the theme in winrar ... go into system then framework
scroll down until you see framework-res.apk
open it with winrar again... then go into the folder "res" then "drawable-hdpi"
find the files which start with "btn_keyboard"
extract them and then open the original theme that enom has uploaded and do the same proccess, instead of extracting the images copy these ones into it and replace them with the images extracted earlier.
all you have to do then is resign the apk ... then resign the .zip theme
i could do this if i had access to my own computer... maybe tommorrow

I wont have time for the next few days to sit down and move the framework around. Girl is moving in...
Updating to Cyanogen beta 2, then NexTheme, then Cyanogen causes a few too many random reboots. If you wipe everything, update to beta 3, update to the 32 kernal with mem hack, JIT off, I get 0 rebooted and its beyond fast enough.
If you made an update that would be hella appreciated lolittle.

[MOD] Android Battery Icons [Metamorph]

Please delete this thread.

Im keeping this on my phone forever!

how do you get this to work it aborted when flashing in recovery??

Okay here's the thing. It's not flashing in recovery because you are missing the update-script (usually found under a few subfolders within the meta-inf folder. take a look at someone elses update.zip (for anything, theme, rom, some of my keyboard themes etc) and you should find what I'm talking about.
Second problem, the framework-res.apk you provided contains only your changes. Had this successfully flashed, you'd now be boot looping as your framework-res.apk would be jacked up.
I took your images and made them into a morph (hope you don't mind, I put your name on the "author" line). I just applied it via metamorph and it's working great!
Benefit to this is it *should* be cross rom compatible, and shouldn't need any updates (whereas if you built a true update.zip that contained all of framework-res.apk, you'd have to update it every time it changed and release different versions for different roms).
Feel free to grab this attachment and throw it on first post!
remember, it's a metamoprh, you must have metamorph from the market to apply it!

Right now unfortunately you can't flash through recovery yet.
I am hoping to have a fix for that later tonight.
See post above. You can now use this with Metamorph thanks to gIMpSTa.

LOL....
This is great!
One thing though, can you make it a bit more discernable for us colour blinds?

hmmm I posted this on the MORPH thread yesterday!

If you want to get a mod to delete my post and put yours in there that would be fine by me.

I have no idea how to delete this off my captivate. I reset my phone, format internal sd and reflashed the unleashthebeast rom. Please help me. Its still there! I want the original battery icon back

[Theme] SE Xperia X10 Theme for CyanogenMOD 6.0.0 7/18/10

Hey guys. First off, I want to thank Darch for his time and dedication he's put into getting us 2.2! You're awesome xD
Second: This theme is NOWHERE near complete yet. I spent quite a few hours today figuring stuff out as I went along, and it is still a work in progress. This means the theme is not complete yet. So don't whine about how some stuff isn't themed yet. I know
Currently all that is partially themed in the framework-res.apk. This means that your taskbar, along with certain controls will be themed. I'd also like some tips on editing .9.png's.
Install instructions:
1. Backup your current ROM! Either Nandroid or backup your framework-res.apk file.
2. Unzip the attached file.
3. adb push the framework-res.apk to your phone.
4. adb push the services.jar to your phone.
Code:
adb remount
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
adb push services.jar /system/framework
adb reboot
OR
If you have ClockWorkMod Recovery installed, you can flash the zip as normal (my signing script is broken).
Uploaded with ImageShack.us

That's actually pretty slick. Isnt the real cyanogen supposed to be adopting the hero for froyo?

Froyo White Clock
Push the attached to your /system/framework folder to switch the clock, permanently, to white.
*Remove the .zip extension from the attached file. It is NOT a zip file, extension changed to allow for uploading to forum.

Good work brotha!! I dig the launcher. Is that the actual Froyo launcher or one from the market? I installed Froyo last night and so far im impressed. I also changed a few things around.

Its no problem man. Here's the file: its inside the zip, so you dont have to rename it. It goes in frame-res\layout.

The launcher is actually ADW Launcher. It's the same Launcher that is used in DarchDroid 2.7. I'm rather fond of it
And thanks Gomorrah! I'll be sure to update my theme now. And I have to apologize, but I'm going out of town soon today, so I won't be able to work on this for the next 5 days

Looks good can't wait for it to be complete. Keep it up.

Anybody got this theme to work? I pushed both files to /system/framework and rebooted and its still showing the default theme.

Hey mrinehart,
I was just wondering if there is a update for this theme coming up for the newest 2.2 release.

To anyone who's wondering about an update on this: I'll release an update when a more "final" version of CyanogenMOD is done for us. I don't want to have to keep constantly updating it to match up with the frameworks

Would it be possible to get the task-bar for CM6 Test 4?
This would really look amazing paired with touchwiz, the stock
android seems kinda bland.
Anyways I hope to see more wonderful things soon.

Thank you,

Ok, in the first post I posted an updated theme that will work with CyanogenMOD 6.0.0 Enjoy.

Ultimate One Click Theme Injector (Teaser 1/15) Screenies... Need some feed back!

New Ultimate Version
I'm looking for some feed back and interest in a gui version of this app, below are some screnshots. Currently I have written interfaces for Optipng, Apktool, ADK, Z7a and a buncha other theming tools. Think of this new version as a way to manage your themes and roms in a workspace like setting, where files will show up in a explorer like ui.
Please ask questions and make suggestions Please!
READ THIS FIRST:
UPDATE 9 PATCH TWEAKS:
This new version will port your favorite hdpi theme to an mdpi rom... yes 9 patch resizing. I want to be the first to say this is not 100% and it probably never will be, and over the next couple of days we can discuss this.
What it will do is resize every 9 patch in a rom and move it over to the mdpi theme. Yes this is the same method I used for all my hdpi ports.
What it might not get is the 9 patching data correctly, which means that it might get stretched incorrectly, most times you won't noticed but others it will be obvious. This will happen anywhere from 1% to 30% of the 9 patch pngs in a port, but all you will need to do is redraw them using the 9 patch draw tool in the adb folder.
Please respect other peoples work. If you port a theme using this and repost it don't just link back to the op... mention the author and give them props.
Also want to say I spent a looooong time trying to figure this out, and I tried many different ways, and I'm open to others suggestion on making this better
Oh and don't forget to to install Image Magick, its included and the HDPI to MDPI will not work without this.
This tool will take your favorite theme and inject it into your favorite rom... provided they are compatible with each other (might work if they aren't but thats for later). I did this cause alot of themers and people who like themes are always waiting for the nightly theme to get applied, well this will do it for you.
You can think of this as almost a theme installer.
INSTRUCTIONS by Norm12:
1. Download and extract.
1.5 Install image magick from the image magick folder... just run the installer and its ready to go. This is important the hdpi to mdpi will not work without it.
2. Copy both the theme and rom into the 1 click folder---the extracted one.
3. Open the 1-click folder and you should see your theme, rom, lib folder, and the injector script.
4. Doubleclick on the injector script----if you did everything correct it will open a cmd prompt
5. Enter the names of the rom and theme when asked...I did use the exact names and added ".zip" to the end.
5.5 Answer y if this is an hdpi to mdpi port otherwise n.
6. Hit enter and wait. When it is really done it will auto-close the cmd prompt. This may take 15 minutes.
7. Your newly themed rom will be in the same folder as the unthemed rom and theme zips. If it worked it should be slightly larger than the original rom. Enjoy
!!!IMPORTANT... BECAUSE 7ZIP SHOWS OUTPUT IGNORE THE "EVERYTHING IS OK" LET THE SCRIPT FINISH WHEN ITS DONE IT WILL CLOSE ITSELF IF YOU DOUBLE CLICKED IT OR IT WILL RETURN TO COMMAND PROMPT!!!
Ignore any errors your seeing while it runs, this is normal like before let it run completely through till it closes out.
Run time could be up too 20 minutes (60 with HDPI to MDPI) on a big theme/rom, but faster that waiting!
You must now install Image Magick if you would like to use the hdpi to mdpi resizing!
ISSUES:
There also seems to be an issue with the gallery3d.apk and the differences in the mdpi and hdpi version. For now remove this from the theme your porting otherwise it won't come out right.
Update 4:
HDPI to MDPI porting!!!!!
Update 3:
Removed verbose but added optopng verbose just let it run. It works but you have to let it finish, the cmd window will close it self.
Update 2:
Added verbose output so that you guys will know to close it out before its done...even tho 7zip says everything is ok... just let it do its thing.
Update 1:
Had the optimization stuff commented out... sorry its back on.
Script will clean up now after it finishes.
JAVA CLASSPATH:
Its needed for the signer to work properly goto a command prompt and type in java -version. if you get and error back java is not in your classpath and needs to be.
just right click on my computer, then goto properties, then click on the advanced tab, at the bottom click on the "Environment Variable" button.
Now click on the new button... the one on the bottom for system variable and put in this
variable name: JAVA_HOME
variable value: C:\<path-to-where-java-is>
Now click ok and select the path system variable and then click edit. IMPORTANT only append to the end of the value this... ;%JAVA_HOME%\bin
then click ok and ok out of all those windows and open a new command prompt and type java -version you should get no error if you do your path to java was wrong follow the steps above again and make sure the path is correct.
WHAT THIS WON'T DO:
It won't port over xml or smali edits.
It wont port over what it can't find... so if your theme has a facebook widget or something but the rom does not then it will ignore that.
It will not port over fonts or anything other than the framework-res.apk and all the themes apks in the system/app folder. If this is popular Maybe other stuff can get included.
WHAT THIS WILL DO:
Shrink a 9 patch from HDPI size to MDPI size.
Push over all the themes pngs from the apk with it to the roms matching apk.
Optimize every png in the theme you are porting over.
Zip align all the apks in your newly themed rom.
Sign the newly themed rom.
Give me feed back.
I might make this easier and make the injector steal the apks for injection right from your phone and then inject and make a flashable to put right back on... tell me what you think.

Nice this is what I made it for... so sorry but I just noticed that I forgot to attach the program. Its up now.

What does yours do that this one doesn't do? I'm just curious because this one will re-size the png's.

well it optos and zip aligns annnd it signs all in one step. while I have looked at that one a while back it has been buggy (it might not now haven't really checked).
So while this isn't necessarily a porter per say. its one step and alot easier to use than that, and it does the extras like zip aligning all the apks, optos and signing. Your finished product is ready to be flashed.
Its your choice!
Edit:
While I do have a technique for doing hdpi to mdpi even the 9ptach, its buggy and reallies on assumptions.
I know for a fact that his does not work (or barely works just read the thread) for hdpi to mdpi and is over all very tricky to use. While mine does not include the hdpi to mdpi I might include that later to my one click suite of tools. But I can tell you 9 ptach porting is likely impossible at best mine will port a 9patch but in about 5-15% of the time is gets bad patch data because of the method I use to port it.... witch I can tell you is the only way you can do it.
Mine will also work across roms and if you guys want I'll put the theme porting code in even the 9patch resizing... so you guys can se my super secret method of porting 9patch pngs.

No, I didn't find this until after I ported Black and Gold. Would of been very helpful if I had used it. This doesn't re-size the .9's but it does port them over. I have been using it to put theimpailers changes into the nightly though.

Well try it out and tell me if you think his is easier to use... i made it specially for making nightlies easier to theme.
Does his zip align and optimize... does it produce a final flashable product? All mine needs are the 2 zips (theme and rom names) and the rest is done.

hold on let me try and see what happened give me a few minutes.
Edit:
So it never got to bootanimation?
Were you going to this rom from another?
How long did you wait for it at the splash screen.
The reason I ask is that this will only push over pngs and shouldn't in anyway affect the rom, save for the new pngs. The only thing I can think of is that you might want to wipe dalvik and data before if your coming from another rom.

I let it sit for bout 10 mins.. etc. then just nand back.
im currently running dd 2.8.
so after it compiled the new theme zip.. i just copied it to my sd card and flashed it..
unless im missing something etc.
So basicly u take the theme.zip and the rom.zip.. tell your script the locations. etc. and then it does its thing..
then take the theme.zip ( before renaming it ) and flash that. correct?
Im gonna try another theme and see what happens...

Ok not sure if you got it backwards but just in case. The script will take the theme and the rom and push the theme into the rom. the final output will be the rom with this appended to the front of the name... themed-darchdroid-v28.zip and that you can flash to your system. You don't need to rename or anything just put themed-darchdroid-v28.zip on your sdcard and flash it to your system.
I can check when I get home and see what happens when I flash it since I don't have my hero on me.

here is whats in the folder once its complete..
im at work so.. dont have too much time to mess with it..lol

oh it seems to be failing then, since the theme.zip and rom.zip are temporary and used by the script to make changes on.
Try this, copy darchdroid-v28.zip into the folder and sme6_signed.zip into the folder then run the script and give those names when asked for them.
The final output should be "themed-darchdroid-v28.zip" I just ran it and the resulting rom looks fine... I can test it of course but will try when I get home.

ok will try that. thanks man.. brb..

All I get are the theme.zip and rom.zip, never outputs the final product. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

hmm not sure why... been using this script for months now. Try this
1. copy your rom into the folder.
2. copy your theme into the folder.
3. tell the script the names (i.e. my-theme.zip, cm6.zip)
4. let script run.
Final output should be themed-<nameofrom>.zip this is your flashable.

How long after the "everything is ok" message appears does it take to complete?
Maybe i'm just not be patient enough

tried your method.. and like the above.
theme.zip and rom.zip, never outputs the final product
im stumped....lol maybe I will try on my pc at home.

VillainTheme System 0.3.5 for the TF101
http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/showthread.php/4971-About-VillainTheme-System
pulser_g2 said:
OK, so I think it's time to explain what this is about. It's born from the idea that came about on IRC, for a way to make a theme once for a ROM, rather than have to adjust it for each incremental update for a given ROM or ROMs.
As a user, you don't need to know much - just flash this zip like a regular zip, and you'll get your theme running. But you should be able to apply themes to any device, ROM, and version of the ROM, without it causing adverse effects. That means less time spent by themers making the original theme, and less time spent modifying it constantly for new versions of ROMs.
As a themer? Well, here is the information:
Inside the zip, in the vrtheme folder, you can create a folder called "system" and "data". The former is required, the latter is not required unless you wanted to theme a data app (strongly not recommended, unless you know the app will be there on every phone)
Inside the system or data folder, create a subfolder "app", and in these, make subfolders named EXACTLY after the APK name. For example, to theme the Browser, you need a folder called "Browser.apk". It must be correctly capitalised.
Within there, place the files you require for your theme, in the relevant locations. So most PNGs will be in res/drawable-hdpi/. You can put in xml files too (those which are not in resources.arsc), if you compile them via apktool, and extract them with a zip tool.
In the vrtheme folder, as well as system and data folder, one called "raw" can exist. Within here, you can place files to be copied verbatim to the ROM (for example, modified JAR files). Note that using this may make the theme device dependent (read WILL make it device dependent)
And that's about it.
Features
Will modify APKs in a ROM, without changing signatures, and can be used on any ROM where the filenames of themed files is the same.
Should not need updated between versions of a ROM
Zipaligns all APKs before installation
Stores a backup of all files being modified in /cache/vrtheme-backup/
Requires no coding abilities or editing of files - just drag and drop
Can copy "raw" files, though at risk of not working on other devices (well, let's face it, it won't work on likely a slightly different ROM, so this feature is not recommended or encouraged)
Credits

Stericson for the original idea of metamorph. While totally different, it's a shared goal to separate themes from ROMs

Nothing evil or complicated - just a few little things. You should not charge for access to this code. That includes a zip containing this, or a derivative of it. So please don't sell themes using it. That's not particularly cool. If you want to use it commercially for some reason, get in touch with us.
If you spot a bug or error, and find a fix, please reply in this thread and let us know, or post the changes you made. If you're going to distribute the changed version, it is expected that you share the change made by contacting us, or posting it here.
Finally, don't be a douche - don't rip this off or call it your own, and leave all headers and comments identifying the origin of the code in place. Don't rename this to match your ROM or "team" name - it's not cool, and it's not yours to go and adjust. I chose to make this a readable "plain" script, but can easily obfuscate and encrypt it if you want to be a douche.

If you had taken 3 seconds to read the post you would know it's not a theme.
This is for themers only.

yes I have read and I have not really understood ...
sorry I disturb

For any themers who want a better example of how it works, I just updated my own theme to use this method:

Hey seshmaru,
This is definitely a great method! As soon as I get a chance, I will experiment with adapting PCB Blue to use the VillainROM theming method (with leaving all credit intact of course )
If someone wants to uninstall any themes applied this way, what would be the best method though? Just reflash their ROM?...(is what I'm thinking).
Thanks for working on this with the Villain Team, and if there's anything I can do (help/test/etc.), please don't hesitate to PM me.
Thanks again, and cheers for now!

Well seeing as the current .zip makes a backup of the original files, in the future there will probably be a script made to restore the back up.
Till then the easiest way is to just reflash your ROM without a wipe or to reflash whatever theme you had before.
If you want to help with testing (constantly fixing things since pulser is away so it's my task to keep the SGS2 template and TF101 template as identical as possible) or have any questions you can pop by the VillainROM IRC since I'm generally in there.

Hmm... I can't quite figure out why, but it is not working right for me.. My framework-res.apk file is exactly the same after flashing....
I managed to do some debugging, and i found out that the file file is actually created, but it doesn't copy it over for some reason...
within the VRTheme folder (which i prevented from being deleted so i could check out the contents) the framework-res.apk file is in apply/system/framework/framework-res.apk...
So i tried editing the install script, all the way down at the bottom, and i changed the code from from cd /cache/vrtheme/apply/system/framework/aligned/ to cd /cache/vrtheme/apply/system/framework/ and it worked!
All i can guess is that the file isn't getting aligned for some reason, so that folder/file is never created, but the script is still calling for it...
Can you please let me know if my fix is acceptable, or if there is something off with it that can be fixed and would allow it to be aligned therefore creating the folder and the file?

I just want to confirm this. I made some xml edits for the framework, finsky, and gmail were I change the color of the text. Those are in the values folder in the colors.xml file. After you compile the apk you cannot see that folder so I am guessing that you cannot use this to flash that xml correct?

I got error 6 as well.

Error 6
I'm gettting same error ^ as cescribed by others.

I have been wanting to get into the Honeycomb theme arena and this looks like a good place to start, thanks for your work and I hope I can figure it out. Would it be ok to drop by IRC if I have any questions?

Hi all, just looking for confirmation that the VillainTheme flasher is able to apply .XML files (specifically in framework-res/drawable)?
Thanks in advance!

It should be able to, although it's had some issues at times.

Anyone getting status 6, try this new updated template: http://www.mediafire.com/?5bs9srz88i4wdq4

I'm having a problem with Recovery giving "E:Error in... / Error 0" with my theme for the TF101 below.
Can someone please test it and report their findings? Note that you should do a Nandroid backup first!
Thanks in advance...
** EDIT ** - Found the problem and fixed it...sorry for the post!
