a few themes (anime related)

^_^ well, im in the process of learning about making themes... and I wanted to share what i have so far.
these all support landscape. They are QVGA.
(I did not draw these... I only made the themes.)
im still struggling with getting the Start menu text from white to black upon changing a theme... Is there a way for this to be done automaticly instead of with a reg tweek on the end user's side? ...
hmm...
*******edit update: whoa! the setting to change start menu colors was right in my face. wow... so im fixing all the ones that need fixed. *done*

Download my all tasks made before 12-21-2006...
(including, christmas and recently fixed versions)
all the others will be posted throughout this thread.
***yet another edit...
I set up a page with my themes located:
http://ookami.n2-network.com/pda/index.html
Feel free to download from there ^

any christmas themed-anime-theme? something in red-white-green would be fine

ah sure ^_^ I didnt make any because Its so close to being over with the season. But yeah, not a problem. As soon as i get home today. Looking forward to it.

These themes are really good, 0okami. I'm using the nekomimi theme now. But you are right that it'd be nice to see the text in black in some of the others.

Must a say nice work !!! Keep it up !

I've got this image.. but lazy to do a tsk. See if you can use it. (PNG in ZIP attcahed)
UPDATE: TSK uploaded. Frosty effect on the start menu. Made the tsk a bit way too big though.

Guys, I'm sure it doesn't need to be said, but try not to go too explicit/hardcore. Ie nothing with four legs or feathers... otherwise, please use your own judgement.

here's another...

Eh? nothing with 4 legs? or feathers? ... *confused*

Hahaha! random imaginative thought: "vijay555: echhi na no wa ikenai to omoimasu"
(refference from an anime called "mahoromatic" for those who dont know it... its phrase from a maid who dislikes ero ero) I Will comply. (^_^)/

kawaiii !!! dejiko-chan of digi-charat! I Will definetly do some of digi-charat! but that image is a little small to play with.
All things said, here are some more themes for you:
the first one suffers from the same as the other light color ones... the start menu's white text...

Which software package do you use to make these themes, 0okami?

Quite cute!
ennui: isn't it themegence?

This program is pretty cool.

I gota admit, I love some of these themes. Keep up the great work! Looking forward to seeing more!

These are really nice Ookami! Keep up the wonderful work ^_^
I understand which one vijay555 decided to give his warning about. Dp_moe_2 I have that image as one of the 2000 or so images that are randomly selected for my computer's wallpaper ^_^ I also like the xmas ones. It's too bad that the memory in the 8125 is so small since I can't store themes on the storage card >_<

Souseiseki from rozen maiden.

*taken down for a moment. * issue with bg and messages. looks terrible.
*updated... fixed as of 7:27pm.

Guys, just to re-iterate, I love this work. Try not to go too explicit or you'll get Flar on your tail, but otherwise, great work.

Custom Rom's for you.

This thread is for anyone that wants a more customized rom.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I will take any rom released on xda for the dream and customize it to ur liking.
If you don't want the msg/mail widgets or a song played during the boot of ur hero rom I will do that as well.
I won't theme a rom for you nor will i create a rom from scratch, i will only modify it to ur liking.
If this sounds like something that you would want just contact me via twitter or email when you know what you want.
Message me the apps you dont want or apps you want added to the rom.
Twitter - follow me on twitter and post a tweet so i can read it when im not at my computer. Thanks.
Gmail - [email protected]
If this isn't the right spot for this thread mod's please move it, I'm just trying to make things easier for the more noobish people in this forum.
Update: There is a rom at the bottom of this page with some specs if you want to try it.
Thanks and happy flashing.

Well, I guess that's a nice thing to do. Thanks for sharing. Although, I would be interested in a nice tutorial on how to take a ROM off XDA and modify it by removing/adding components... Lemme know if you can help.
Thanks again for your helping intentions!
Long live Android and the community

yea, actually being able to compile a full rom pack for fresh regular wipes complete with apps and whatnot would be killer. I'm sure there's a guide to compiling your own package somewhere though. This totally is the dev department =P Check the huge list of q&a

I'm just want people who get frustrated easily to be able to have the same benefits as the rest of us. You just tell me the rom you want, we'll chat for a little and i'll tell you what apps i can take out and you can ask me to add some apps into the rom..if you want a theme i can help you pick the best one for you and other things along those lines. I already have a few requests and I'm going to sleep now but I will try and get you guys ur roms as soon as I possibly can.

I could use (a lot of people who do embedded systems stuff could use, actually) a cupcake rom with the serial port enabled, TTYMSM2. This would allow hooking up th Dream to a number of devices (Including a sonar if you want to do the Dark Knight scanner thing ).
Ideally it should have variable baud rate but if thats not an option, a lot of stuff (DGPS, sonars...) still runs at 9600 baud.

So would it be possible to get Ion with the htc dialer and htc mail app(exchange)?

I have a few requests that i will be getting to tonight. I will try my best to get them done in speedy orderly fashion.

Can I get a maxisma v2 rogers rom with rosie? I can wait haha I'm just busting your balls! Lol

i would just like a how to on making a lock screen

This is an update from drizzy that i modified a bit for a friend..
-for weather or flip clock use the android widget
-no mail/sms widgets
-updated onscreen keyboard just have to enable it.settings->Locale & Text-> Disable Touch Input
-Some extra games you can delete them from Settings->Applications->manage applications
-other fixes that seem to make it quicker.
-don't overclock, enjoy.
Update.zip

idc what rom it's running on (i'm on cyan 3.9.1 i believe), i just want the camera from wherever you can get it from that has the "store location in photo/pictures" option.
this would be a dream come true. lol
i looked for an app that offered it but seen nothing. =/

pictures store on ur sd card in DCIM/100 Media and wont go anywhere as long as you don't format ur fat32 partition..im not sure where else you would want them to be stored though.

I think he means one that embeds the current GPS data into the image.
So, when he takes a picture it will embed the data of *where* the picture was taken.

Ide like to see some of the hero widgets, like photo album, and the large calendar, and the twitter widget, work on the JACxHERO v1.3 rom
That would be pretty cool, Just all the HERO widgets in general work on the JACxHERO 1.3 build
that would be cool

Background phone
Is there a way to get the background of the contacts, fav, ect.. To black with white fonts. I'm running JacXHero 1.1 with themed palm-hero V3r2.
Thanks
P.S also how can I get TouchPal to work it always gives me an error.
Thanks again

Yeah, that's exactly what I meant. Thanx Nedlinin, I guess I phrased it wrong. Lol
Acutally, if it's easier, you can maybe point out a tutorial or tell me how I could pull out the camera apk from 1 rom and install it in another.... (?_?)

Yeah thats possible, i'll work on that when i get back from vacation..I'll take care of you. To get touchpal to work u just have to have touchpal the only one checked. Then ur set, no errors.

is it possible to customize a fast lag free rom and have it look like the hero.....i like the way the text messages and icons look also like the dialer and the menu.....but hero is so slow sometimes.....thx...

let me get Drizzy's NewVision_2.8 with bluetooth and paid apps working, or Drizzy's NewVision v3r2 with bluetooth and the keyboard working.

i would like a rom that when installed would add 96mb of RAM, would give me the ability to fly as well as to teleport. also i would like it to include a notification ringtone sampling the episode of the boondocks where ed and rummy try to kidnap oprah and ed says "*****es love smiley faces."
just kidding though the last would be cool lol.
but seriously though you are doing a great service for the community. keep up the great work and don't lose your patience.

[Request] Simple Digital Clock (using "Segoe UI"fonts)

i've searched everywhere for some nice digital clocks, but everyone creates clocks with some really wierd fonts, or colors that isnt really my taste. So, i made a "concept art" of how a digital clock id like to use look like. (see attachments)
The clock has to be adjustable via CHT (i mean being able to move it around like the normal manila digital clock), so that i can use it in all screens, (Home , all levels, and lockscreen).
Anyone knows if anything like this exists?
if not, anyone willing to make it?
i used the font known as "Segoe UI" (light). Also, if possible, id like some extra versions of it, like the fonts being black instead of white, and an other one with having that black transparent panel behind the clock, using white for the fonts.
PS1:i know that the clock im thinking about looks horrible with the current looks of my phone, but i cant be arsed to change anything until i find a proper clock
PS2: i also know that theres a cab that removes the white panels behind the manila numbers of the clock. The thing is that, without it, the numbers got a little gap between them, looking ugly imo

I basically achieve this by mixing two cabs I've found here in xda
one is called
[Star] Segoe UI light clock charecters White.cab
and the other one is
Transparent Clock flippers.cab
you can find them here on xda posted by their respective authors.
edit: oh I forgot! you can use
transparent clock background.cab to get the effect you want

awesome! thanks a lot for ur reply!

Yeah use my cabs, but you will still get the lines its inevitable when you remove the clock flippers man

ah shame. i thought that ppl let those gaps there, so that the "flip" of the numbers looked better
excellent work with those cabs btw, they were exactly what i needed

I would love a clock like this also. Shame nobody wants to make it without the lines (from the flippers).
Having the lines kills the elegancy of it.

Hi everyone,
I get a solution to fix the problem with the flip lines but you have to be very carefully 'coz it's a bit risky...don't be panic, it works for me perfectly without problem and it would work for you guys too, just follow the instruction
1. Make a backup of the 7c60907d_manila go to your /windows directory and find that file, copy and paste it in your SD card.
2. Download the attached rar. file to your PC, extract the file and save the folder "NoFlipLIne" in your SD card
3. Using Total Commander or File Resco, go to your SD card and open the folder "NoFlipLine" and copy the manila file and paste it into your /Windows directory and accept overwrite (don't worry, you have a backup in case something go wrong)
4. Now reset Sence or restart your phone (as you prefer) and see if you like the magic
Also this manila file has a fix to get installed up to 20 CHT widgets too.
In case of any problem, just find your backed up original file and reinstall it back.
Remember, that works perfectly in my device, but I will not be responsible if it does not work well on yours or cause any other problems, so use it at your own risk
Enjoy it and please let me know if it works well for you.
Your feedback or just a Thanks button clicked is always appreciated.

Thank you for the reply, and your effort.
Unfortunately this did not work. I did exactly as you said, when I restart the phone, I get the original clock, with flippers, but no text where the time is. Basically the time (text) is blank and I just have the original flippers which flipe with nothing inside them.
I don't have screen capture software so I hope you know what I mean. I fyou want a screen print, please link a screen capture app.
I copied the original (backup file) to Windows and all is ok now.
My phone details are as follows:
ROM: 314 WWE (3.14.831.3
Manila: 2.5.20161330.0
WM6.5
Thanks again for trying. Any other suggestions?

ok, this s a little embaressing, I feel like an idiot.
There was no clock text as everything was white. When I mucked around and applied the 'transparent flippers' boom, the clock is just like the pic. PERFECT.
Thanks heaps. I have 'thanked' your post. Good job.

Hi again my friend,
I forgot to give you a hand with this one too, so here I'm again
For screen capture I use a great app that is very easy to use and works perfectly and with good quality, it is "Shake and Save" which you can find it in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=488990
Best regards.

Wow, brilliant app. Thank you x2. For the app, and the clock.

Possible theme that improves upon stock HTC Sense

I just recently moved from iOS to Android, and I like it so far but it looks kind of... cheap. I'm talking about HTC Sense specifically, stock/AOSP Android is well design but albeit dull to some (although I don't agree, I prefer the minimalistic design). Some of it is okay while other parts don't make a whole lot of sense or just look plain amateur. Most of all, I think it's way over exaggerated. I hate looking at the browser bar and seeing a heavily glossed bevel with a near near flat text input and a inset button. Why would a button be even inset?
Anyway, I like some of Sense's additional features, and since Cyanogen isn't stable yet, I'd like to re-design Sense to be more subtle and just better designed. I'm a well established UI/UX designer but always have a lot of work on hand. So if someone who is knowledgeable with the graphic files that make up Sense (preferably in the new Froyo build) and is willing to identify and send the files (preferably in a zip of organized folders so I could just re-design and leave as is which could then be easily turned into a usable update file by someone), I'd get started ASAP.
The EVO is fine as is, but improving the appearance of Sense would go a long way in calming my OCD mind Attached is a quick example of how it would look like. It's the "to" contact bar in the HTC messaging app - the top is default, the bottom is my redesigned version.
My main beefs with the default graphic are:
a. It's too glossy making the outset depth of the bar appear high, problem is that a flat element (the text input box) is laid on top of it thus making it look weird and unnatural. Plus it makes it look like cheap plastic.
b. The button is inset. Why? Have you ever seen a inset button? Maybe once or twice. Looks more like a active selection than a button. the lighting is also off and just plain looks terrible.
c. The corners are rounded, but why? It looks out of place and loses fluidity with the rest of the layout. One thing I noticed is that HTC likes to throw in rounded corners in just about everything they can.
Like I said, this will be a very subtle theme but I think it will help make the stock Sense theme better. So if anyone wants to help identifying the files or knows a known resource (which I doubt since Froyo must have changed things a bit), just PM me.

I second this request. I wish I could help.
I totally agree with you in that the Sense theme needs to be more subtle.
I have always wondered why it has taken so long for someone to come up with this theme.

that would be nice

I like the idea!
Heres what I have so far.
In framework-res, I have included everything I think you will need. You'll have to let me know how much theming you intend to do. ie buttoms/selections (everything with a stock gloss?) or not.
I will continue to dig up more of what you need once I hear how deep you're looking to go. I included the taskbar icons because those will need to be changed to fit whatever the taskbar changes too so they will match. Obviously I have yet to include the signal ones along with 4g, as well as the individual app status bar notifications.
I'll wait to hear back before I progress much further.
Again, very nice looking.
Edit: Updated my post to add more.

I want to fix as much as possible. Anything you send, I'll theme. I'll commit to that.
But at the least, I want to redesign buttons and major UI elements like the example I showed. I definitely would like to redesign selections -- I'm not sure why they are "crystal-like", I much prefer a AOSP-like selection but of course in green for Sense.
I'll look through these and see what I'll do with them.

Ok, don't know if I edited my post before or after this, but I added more to the framework-res folder with an updated zip. It now includes everything from there you should/could need from that particular file. See what you can do with those. I'm not 100% sure if any of the files used in froyo have changed (what gets used in those folders and what doesn't) so bare with me. But for the most part it shouldn't be that difficult to dig up the rest of the important stuff.

I just pulled it now so it should be the latest files.
I just pushed that sense folder to my work server, once something is in there, they get done. I'll update the folder as I get more items.

Alright so this is what I'll do. I'll theme these current files and when I'm done I'll post some previews and then you or someone else who is willing can send a new batch of files. That way it can be done in waves and can be easily managed.
So I'll finish these and post back soon.

Ok, well this has totally got me pumped, so I went through and did more for you. I've included the other files out of ease, so what I have done is labeled all the folders which have new files (new from that one posted above) and added "contains new" at the end. Then within each folder i have created "new" folders for what I have added. That way you don't have to go through and figure out what you have done and whats been added.
This should keep you busy as I'm done for the night. This is a lot of the major stuff though. I will report back with anything else I find later on.

Award Tour, just curious, do you have experience with .9.png's?
Barnacles, I noticed you pulled stuff out of framework-res, did you toss him the stuff from com.htc.resouces.apk too?

Not yet, but I understand them now I think. I noticed immediately that some of the files had to scale somehow and from your post just noticed that those files are the .9 files you speak of. I'll look into it but I'm just gonna assume that they have some sort of meta info in them for now. I'll work on those last so I can read up on the file format.

Yeah they have invisible guides that tell the OS where to stretch the image to suit whatever purpose it needs.
When you open, edit and re-save them the guides disappear so you'll have to redraw them. You will find plenty of info on .9's.
The search bar you did looks much better than Google's version, I'm sure this will end up being a pretty sweet theme
This is no small undertaking or I would jump in on it and help out.
There are tons of people here who are more talented and experienced than I but if you have any questions you're welcome to pm me.

Hey guys. I am up for the night and addicted to flashing **** so let me know if you need a beta tester.

Once you finish what's there feel free to send them back to me and I can throw em back where they need to go and make a morph for the changes to test them out.

ok so are those .zips flashable? any screens of what you have done? it looks nice on the first picture

I only spent like 20 minutes on it today during work but I should do a hour or so more later tonite.
I finished some of the status bar but I was disappointed to see that the background image for a notification item was missing. I still designed it but if anyone knows how I can throw it in sense (maybe a simple file with the right name? maybe check a AOSP build because it should be in there) let me know.
Here it is for those that are interested, I will probably refine it further but this is what I got so far:
The aim, if you haven't already noticed, is to combine stock AOSP Android with a Sense-like look.

Changing layouts via CHTS

Ok so we've all heard the news about CHT2.0 and all its great new features.....
Far and away the best new thing for me is the beast that is Micheldiamond's CHTS....
(If you dont know what Im talking about then check here)
What Im so excited about is that if you kill sense through too much tweaking ( ive lost count of how many times) you can get back to where you were before the crash in a matter of minutes........ its literaly a manila safety net...
It also gives theme makers the ability to dump a whole CHT theme / layout in such a way that it can be implemented in a much easier way than installing numerous cabs and individual tweaks.......
The point of this thread is to see how dumping a layout and applying it to someone elses device works....
This is mainly aimed @ miller710 who kindly agreed to help me test this but I figured Id post it in the forum for anyone who wasnt aware of this great new feature........
Ok on to buisness........
If you'd like to test out how this works then please follow the steps below and let me know how it works for you.....
This is not a release of a theme, its more of an "experiment en mass" with this new feature........
I've attached the layout I posted in the today screen thread here
If your not yet familiar with CHTS I'd recommend that you spend some time playing around and getting used to it first........
First of all, make sure you have CHT Scheduler installed and your baseline saved.........
Save any layout your currently using and check that it all works as it should by saving it.......loading your baseline then reapplying your saved layout....
If it all comes back in all the right places then we are good to go......
Unzip the folder Ive attached and then put the whole folder thats inside into storage card/_CHTScheduler.....
You should see your saved layouts and baseline already in there......
Once its in go for a soft reset.....
then when you go back into CHTS switch gui and try to change layout you should have "black n blue rss" as an option....
Try changing to that layout and let me know what happens......
You should end up with something like the screenshots...............
It wont change your icons, if your using dinik icons you will still have dinik icons..... if your using stock they should still be stock.....
You will not get the "blue tape" digital clock (because my lua skills arent up to scratch yet )
However you should have the wallpaper, widgets and quicklinks and blue soft keys in all the right places
There shouldnt be any serious consequences to this..... if something does go wrong you can restore you baseline/old layout........ however as always you do this at your own risk.....

Worked. However there are some broken links I think this if for programs that you have that I do not. I will post some before after screens in a few minutes.

Hey Troutman! First out there with a trial layout for CHTS (how long before you and Mob release the orange street theme as a zip for this... )
It seems to work fine (once I'd realised that you had to go in one folder once unzipped to find the one names CHTS_blah blah blah and copy THAT one to the CHTScheduler folder in Storage Card!). I'm assuming it won't look exactly like your screenshots - my layout has retained my clock/weather choice on the central screen and the RSS widget is above the clock, not below like in your screenshot. Also I have lots of missing quicklinks
I agree that CHTS is just as amazing as CHT itself - there has been a massive amount of work by MD - it has already replaced Phoneweaver on my phone for automatic connection and sound profiling. I'm just waiting for your orange theme, buff and GTX to be released in this format and I'll be away!
Just been switching back to my baseline as I've been typing and I still have all your quicklinks and none of my free links - hey ho, guess there's still some work to do...
See you back at the Dev group! Love the weather wallpapers you've done for the lockscreen - where can I get the full set?

Worked. However there are some broken links I think this if for programs that you have that I do not. I will post some before after screens in a few minutes.

DOH! should have though of that......
I should have saved a version with empty quicklinks,,, except for apps that come as stock..... opera etc......
Once I figure out how to do an xml for the layout i should be able to cancel out any links that point to apps other people might not have........
So it really is as easy as that........
Good to know....... thanks man!

I also had the problem when I switched back to my baseline. I lost my free links. The wierd thing is that when I loaded your theme, I got the custome cht toggles you used on ur theme. And when I switched back I got the old standard icons. So this seems to be a transferable item as well.
Then after looking it over I noticed that the custom cht softkeys also change with the theme loadout. apparently that is also something that can be transfered.

Hey Troutman! First out there with a trial layout for CHTS (how long before you and Mob release the orange street theme as a zip for this... )
It seems to work fine (once I'd realised that you had to go in one folder once unzipped to find the one names CHTS_blah blah blah and copy THAT one to the CHTScheduler folder in Storage Card!). I'm assuming it won't look exactly like your screenshots - my layout has retained my clock/weather choice on the central screen and the RSS widget is above the clock, not below like in your screenshot. Also I have lots of missing quicklinks

Hey Dunc, wasnt really intending it as a release, more an experiment and some shameless promotion for CHTS (not that it needs it )...
I think if your swipe up you'll get the rss in the same position as the screenshot..... i didnt post every page on every level....
and the digi clock will be missing because I cant get my standalone widgets to work....... unless you want to kill sense then they're great..... lol
The quicklinks thing was a stupid error on my part, obviously any proper theme releases will come as default with empty link.... I was just rushing to post before the missus gets home........
Not long for Orangestreet..... just need to hammer out the xml... I think thats the missing link.....
Not sure why your baseline would be affected......
Mine has always been rock solid...... If I thought that peoples "safety net" would be jeopardised then I would have held off on posting this because obviously I dont wanna cause people to have to go through a whole set up process again so sorry about that
Appreciate the feedback man thanks again

Yep, toggles will go across too.....
If I was using custom state indicators they'd show as well.....
As I said to Dunc, Sorry about your baseline....
Was it just the freelinks you were missing or did you still have the regular quicklinks too??

@Dunc001
Forgot to answer your question about the weather walls......
I cant take any credit for those, they're all mob's work...... they were in the dropbox in the chts folder...
If they're no longer there then let me or mob know and we'll post them somewhere for you.......

The glass circle softkeys are before. the Blue softkeys are after. Mind you this is after doing it for a second time so both sets of pics have your free links and quick links. When I reverted back to baseline it kept your icon layout just changed everything else back.

Once again man sorry about that.....
Can you revert to a previously saved layout to get your quicklinks back?

No worries man. I have been playing around with it alot any ways. What I can't figure out is why CHT occationaly just moves links around. I also have problems with the icons changing randomly for no reason at all. Any idea?

Cant say Ive ever experienced that....
Maybe CHTS is set to switch profiles at certain times??
Ive linked MD( genius behind CHTS) to this thread so hopefully he can shed some light on this.....
Edit;
GRRR just realised I missed my 1000 post milestone..... lol
wanted to use it for something ridiculous in off topic........... oh well guess i'll just have to wait for 2000

Amazing!
For the quicklinks thing: I have a solution - will be in next fixed version, should be better then:
- It deletes the "old" quicklinks instead of overwriting, so there is no "mixing"
- you can disable quicklink switching with Layout switching in the settings.
Then let's have a look, if this is enough or if we need something more.
Great work, conan - I luv this style of your themes! But that you already know (Congrats to your 1000+, too *g* )

thanks md, probably best to leave out the quicklinks in the meantime...
I guess people are going too want to set their own links anyway...
is this the best way to share a theme between two devices, by placing the layout folder into the chts folder of another device? or is there a better way....
ha ha thanks for the congrats... it will soon be 2000 at this rate...

oh, overseen your answer, but with new CHTS 2.02 all the quicklink things, which are mentioned above, are soluted.
So Quicklinks are switching now also if they have different designs.
only the randomly moving quicklinks needs also a fix in CHT itself, but meanwhile it's counteracted as good as possible with CHTS, too.
And yes,simply placing and copying the Layout-subfolder is the intended easy sharing or saving of a Layout. CHTS automatically recognizes the new CHT-Layout (indifferent if by .zip or .cab installed) and can be assigned to any profile by the user. mmh...I think that you already know but perhaps some others not.
Thanx for your inputs!

Thanks Michel,
I think all the issues with the quicklinks are sorted now
Any layout I post will have only have empty quicklinks by default, obviously each user is going to want different programs in different places.
I'll still be setting the location of the link and if they want to re-arrange then thats up to them..........
