[Q] Theming the Stock Camera app - Nexus One Themes and Apps

how would I go about creating and using my own?... stock is so ugly. I would gladly create a better looking interface.. I just don't know much about how to go about modding it.

There is a nice theme, posted a few weeks ago.
You must search.

yeah that's not bad. I had seen that one before, but I would like to create my own and if it is good enough, share it. so how could I go about making my own?
*edit* kinda realised my post title doesn't communicate my point properly.. doh!

[Q] Porting the Galaxy S contacts apk?

I was playing around with my friend's captivate and the contact list had a pretty cool feature of swiping on the contact to call (swiping right) or sending a message (swiping left) I was wondering has anyone ported this over to other devices? Would be cool if it can be ported to work with cyanogen mod. Or if anyone else wants to try to do it, that would be cool.
I was told might get a better answer in this forum.
Sounds cool. Is it a modified version of the vanilla contacts .apk or something complete different?
well i got it happy enough to install, but it fc's...maybe ill take a look at it tonight...
this may be a very tough port though, it appears to depend on alot of samsung stuff

It actually looks like a modified vanilla contact apk, It's a neat feature, would be nice if it can be ported though.

I don't know about other people but besides the touchwiz launcher, how Samsung modified the OS is pretty nice, been playing with the Captivate a little more, and I have to say I like it a lot.
I accidentally deleted my contacts app on my captivate :-( I will be interested in this thread... perhaps I can get it back!

why wouldnt you just ask for it in the captivate forum
Well, because the discussion here is about exactly that apk, no?
Sorry if I misstepped.

OP is looking for someone to port it to incredible. to me, it would seem the simplest course of action to recovering a deleted apk from my phone would be to ask someone else who has that phone. hence going to captivate forum to find a captivate apk. im sure someone would post it within minutes, or you can pull it from one of the possibly many roms that are already there.
OK, thanks for the tip. Please excuse my NOOB-ness.
I'm interested too.
It's a pretty cool feature.
I had a Samsung Wave with this feature and it's very useful.

[Theme] Infinite Cha0s X for Liberty 2.0.1

Alrighty then, here we go. Infinite Cha0s X now up and running. I have decided to do the Market as an add-on due to various compatibility issues some testers have had. I managed to flash in succession: Market versions 2.2.7, 2.2.11, and 2.3.6 without need to freeze the MarketUpdater, or wiping ANYTHING. Not a single force close. However, even trying to flash a themed version of the same one included in the rom (2.2.11) failed for some of my other testers, sometimes not even showing up in the app drawer at all. Long story short, flash with caution or at least take the steps detailed here: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/li...ty-market-update-ver-2-3-6-a.html#post1454796
Features -
3D style buttons, both rectangle and round. (Round ones actually "depress").
Lots of inverted apps: Gmail, Talk, Market, Messaging, and Google Voice.
Complete theme - All apps included themed 90%+. Many have had EVERY image replaced or modified.
Sweet custom Wifi / 3G / Signal Bars / Battery icons.
Blue, white, or abstract blue pattern highlights (depending on what it is...)
Dark blue progress bar.
Too many more things to list...
Apps Included:
Browser
Calculator
Camera
Contacts
Desk Clock
Email
Gallery 3D
Gmail
Google Voice
Google Quick Search Box
Messaging
Music
Phone
Settings
Talk
Add-on:
Market

Haha! Thanks for the kind words, and I was thinking the SAME thing, and was almost thinking of posting it before I noticed you wrote. I know the Motorola stuff isn't as big over here, but was hoping for SOMEONE to notice this. LoL Guys, if you are running Liberty, and you like blue at all, you'll really love the amount of depth and detail that my theme has... Don't be scared. Peace.
Nice work bro,
There are a few pluses and minuses
Good:
Deeply themed!
Good colors!
Nothing really missing
Bad:
Images aren't very sharp
It doesn't look super professional and looks like this theme: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1002986 except yours looks better.
But I think if you could sharpen up the images a little bit to make it look a lot more pro and maybe more minimalist this could be a great theme!
Good luck!
Ljbaumer
Hey man, thanks for props and constructive criticism. Unfortunately I know of no way to make images sharper, as most of the images are found online, and I don't know any repository of hi-res icons to pick and choose from. Also, my theme came out well before Bruised Steel, just not for the Dx, as I had a Droid 1 previously, but I'm glad you like mine better. I dunno anything about being super professional, as I have no schooling or training in image manipulation, so I had to go with being as thorough as possible. I'm just someone with too much free time on their hands. LoL Anyway, have a good one.
Nice effort
Yea very creative,but I here wat he saying.themes just doesn't look shape around the edges.maybe some one on here can give you sum advice.
Beyond the Messaging icon and the little + symbol in the dialer picture, I'm not sure what you mean about the images not being sharp? I don't see anything else that isn't at least standard quality icons. Please elaborate.
Maybe they are judging the low res sscreen shots without actually installing the theme....i installed it just to try it and it liked beautiful...but the version I used was one I ported with Wugs...so the 3g icon didnt port directly over to GB that I'm using..... But loved it and planning on doing a re port once Wug updates his porter

Just checked yours out and, you're right, its easy to have "sharp" and "professional" images when you just recolor existing images. Man this forum is full of douche bags!!

thanks for not even having the common courtesy to bash my Bruised Steel theme on its on thread. you should remember that most themers do this for themselves and don't have to share with you. if you don't like it.... Don't use it. you Sir are the real douchebag.
To creator of infinite chaos... Ran your theme for a couple days. didn't notice any quality issues with images. looks great keep up the good work.

willjohnson - DroidDoes was speaking of ljbaumer's theme, not yours... DroidDoes is an up and coming themer as well and knows how much of a PITA it can be at times, as I have helped him with a few things myself. Anyway, thanks for the kind words about my theme. You keep up the good work too.
At first glance it would appear he was talking about will. But after looking at each persons themes. I think he is referring to the pink theme by 'lj'. Big whoop if its hue changes, (his other 2 look pretty clean) and if he know that is so much of a PITA, why did he start bashing him for just stating his opinion.
Lj was throwing out his thoughts. Pointless ones yes, but still just his opinion. Looking at 'DD's' thread's and seeing what he has made for themes .... o wait he hasnt posted anything.... So he shouldnt be talking crap on other people's stuff until he prove's himself. Up and coming means nothing. Put your stuff out there and let the fans decide whos is better
Everyone starts somewhere. If its not to your taste just move along.
To the OP- nice work.
I have threads, just haven't posted them here, thank you very much! I have never, and will never "bash" another's theme. But, if you're gonna talk **** about someone else's themed images not being "sharp" enough when all you do is change the hue on yours, you SHOULD be called out, IMO! I am "up and coming" and have only been theming for a couple of months now but, I'm just on the other forums most of the time. XDA isn't the ONLY forum, yeah?
Cha0s, this is one of the things I miss most about my DX! Excellent work..as usual!

It's different and right now hogs a bit of memory. But I like the look.
Just install the apk like any other app and pick the slate skin.

LOL I think the guy that posted after you seems to differ...
I think most people in forums only venture in what device/product they currently have. I have a bit of experience moderating other forums as well.
Got this yesterday and working and looking great. Regardless if was posted in the homepage thanx for posting here as there some people who just bookmark there device page and come straight here.
Got this one yesterday. Looks good. We need some more themes to work with. HTC is slacking!
Oooh I likey..I just might have to go back to stock for this one. Thanks.

Not sure...ask the dev if that's what he used. It's possible. This launcher is nothing special to me, I used to have an X10 so it was one of the first mods I did.
Someone may recommend the dev for RebelROM to try this? I would, but I'm unable to post in the development section yet... Compared to what RebelROM has, this looks a bit more full-fledged. Those widgets and extra features could do some good for RebelROM!

No need to recommend anything to the dev, just flash the launcher, problem solved! Not everybody like the same launcher, but that's a non-issue with as many launchers as there are out there including the one here this dev has made available for us.
Unfortunately, following instructions in the thread, notice I read it first, still unable to install. Any advice or comments are truly welcomed. I do like this launcher and would love to be able to kick the tires and take it for a ride.
Also, perhaps we all should allow each other, as long as the Devs are OK with it, to suggest things to enhance all of our experience. I kinda like the suggestion to include this launcher as I did your posting about the toggles.

Haha, good job
As for why it's not working, I have no idea. I never bothered to try it cause I didn't quite understand the direction clearly and cause I used to have a SE X10 that had that launcher so it's old news to me. Maybe try posting in the original thread and see if they can help you out.
It doesn't matter to me if you guys suggest or request things be added to the ROM, my only reasoning was if it can be flashed to your phone why does the dev need to bake it in to his ROM. Doesn't matter to me what launcher he uses cause I use GoLauncher no matter what.

[Q] Live wallpapers not working on jedi mind tricks rom

Hi. I bought a t-mobile Samsung galaxy S2 yesterday and the guy I bought it from has Jedi mind tricks rom on it. I downloaded the diablo 3 live wallpaper and every time I go to open it after downloading and installing, it won't open. So I thought it was the app and tried another live wallpaper and that didn't open. I tried 5 different live wallpapers and none of them work on my phone. So i'm assuming it's something with the Rom he put on my phone. regular wallpapers work, just not live wallpapers. I would really like to get this working, cause I love live wallpapers especially the Diablo 3 one. Can someone please help with this issue step by step, I am just learning about cell phones now since I got this, but I am a complete NOOB atm. also... is there a link someone can provide on learning how to use Jedi mind tricks? thanks a lot! I did want to add... I looked my butt off for anything on this before I posted this question and found nothing on it, if it is posted somewhere, I am sorry, but me being at work didn't give me uber browsing time and it doesn't help I have ADD and this site is VERY overwhelming to me. I want to mention, I called the guy I bought the phone from and he said try using APEX or a different loader, but that didn't work either. Very frustrating considering I build and repair PC's but can't figure this phone thingy out.
Thanks,
Chris

That's because its not included in the ROM by default. It can be found in the Goody Bag.
A good way to solve most ROM related issues is to:
1. Search in the ROM's discussion thread (like I did just now)
2. Ask in the ROM's discussion thread
3. PM the dev of the ROM once and wait for an answer.
