Can Someone please help me, i always support developers by purchasing apps, please help so i dont have to refund the app.
How long should it take to apply the frameworkres.apk??? its been appling for about 15mins now.
i tried a different theme, and metamorph didnt pick up the .thm file so i converted it, while installing it got to part 3 of 4 and restarted and now looks on different. Any ideas?
Ive tried 3 different themes still cant get the black status bar
if you have the newest metamorph, make sure you have a new style morph aswell, the old ones wont work with new metamorph unless the themer updated their morph

thanks for you help both of you, the zip files has no xml file in it, but its the latest got it from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=637245
the kustom one. It contains no xml file at all, and the one i created from the .thm doesnt work.
I have the latest metamorph from andriod market v 1.9.8.3
EDIT: metamorph never asked me about busybox is this only need for older versions of metamorph?
anyone ?
Try THIS, credit goes to its creator (Danation @ ModMyMoto) All you have to do is put the .thm file in the same folder as this, then run the program. It makes an .xml file that you can put back in the Morph zip file, then you should be good to go. If it tells you it already has a valid xml file, tell it to make one anyways.
PS- follow the link, the version i uploaded is not the newest one

Hi thanks for your help i appreciated it! I already tried to create the xml file using that program, but when i try to apply it only applies some parts of the theme not the black bar. Ive got chrome icon and messaging icons but no black bar. Any ideas?
Ive tried so many different morphs that are meant ot change my status bar to black but still none that work, it seems to just change the clock font to white, so i can hardly see it. This is really frustrating, i think i better refund metamorph before its too late.
is morph of kspec working for others? Are they using their own made .xml file? is it making their topbar black?
What am i doing wrong? Do i need this busybox?
awesome forum!
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).

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.

Hes gonna need the status_bar.xml for the notifications too. I have both already, and asked him if he wanted them last night on the irc but he never said anything so I assumed he had it taken care of.

Oh sorry Gomorrah!!! I was watching a movie with my parents (Tears of the Sun) last night. I just leave my IRC on But if you could help me out with the status_bar.xml, that'd be awesome
And thanks JsChiSurf for the services.jar!
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.

You have to update it. This will only work on the first release. The frameworks have since changed.

Oh ok. I didn't think that the framework-res.apk or services.jar could've changed in a release since it's mostly graphical stuff... Oh well
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.

If you're on the latest version 1.08 of Eaglesblood for 2.3.5, then just push this SystemUI.apk into /system/app , fix the permissions, and reboot, and it should do the trick.
The reason you were having trouble before is because the stock image is a .9.png...I won't go into the details of that, but a little extra work is needed to make those files work.
This file I've included should work for ya.

Ok, so you're on the latest version (1.08) of Eaglesblood for 2.3.5, correct? If you are not 100% sure, you can check in "About Phone" and check on the build.
Using the SystemUI.apk that I uploaded, what is your procedure for getting it into your phone?
Because that file has a transparent status_bar_background.9.png with correct patch handles drawn...not sure why it won't work. I will admit, that I don't have a 2.3.5 nandroid backed up to test. Anyone else?
I think I found the problem. Your rom's SystemUI/res/layout/status_bar_tracking.xml points to shade_bg.png for the background. I made that image transparent for you, and recompiled the apk. I really hope this works for you. I have to admit, I"m feeling rather dumb right now.
Yes I'm on 1.08 and my exact procedure was I downloaded the file on my phone, I went to root explorer to the xda download folder where it was located, I copied it to system/app and overwrote tthe current systemui.apk that was there, at that time, a constant endless force closes occurred so I had to pull my battery and rebooted that way, as it rebooted, the notification bar was gone, I then went to the systemui and changed permissions to where the first column is all checked and the first of the 2nd ccolumn is checked, I then pulled the battery again (cuz of the apn issue without the hard reset) and when it came back, nothing changed, so I fixed permissions via rom manager, to no avail......its frustrating!

holy crap it worked.....a million times THANKS!!! You effin rock dude! thanks for taking the time to help me! So to my understanding, u just edited the shade_bg file???? that was it??
Yeh, essentially, all I would have needed to do was edit that shade_bg.png file. But I didn't know to look there until I was forced to try to save face after giving you bad advice, lol. Now I know that some roms will point to status_bar_background.png, some will point to shade_bg, and some even simply define a hex color code...just have to decompile the SystemUI.apk, and look in res/layout/status_bar_tracking.xml to see where it's looking....and then edit that file.

so now that i know it works, i was wondering if i wanted to create one, do i make it 200 x 200 like the current shade_bg file is? i kinda want to make one with a black background with semi transparency! I tried editing the shade_bg file u made, with a program called Gimp, but it didnt work
Can you give me your exact method to doing this? I created an image from gimp, i saved it as shade_bg.png, so basically , i extracted the systemui.apk from root explorer, it put the extracted in my sd card, so i plugged in my phone in my mac, and i took that folder from my sd card, now from here, the extracted file is a zip file, so i double clicked it b/c macs can unzip files easily, so in the folder, i placed my shade_bg file into the appropriate folder.....now this is where i think i mess up, what do u do from here? I "compressed" the systemui folder to make it back into a zip, and then placed it into my sd card, i then "renamed" the file thru my phone from a .zip to a .apk, now in root explorer there is usually an icon that shows up next to the name of the files, now when i changed it, a green android icon showed up, but on the file that you had edited for me, there was a "settings" icon, u know, the standard icon for the settings app in android! i put the apk in the system/app and it didnt work, even after permissions set up! hmmm.....i promise, this will probably be my last post!
please keep in mind, i have a mac, and i do have that 7zip u mentioned in the development thread, but its called EZ7Z.....just in case i need it
If you are doing it the way you described, then you need to find a way to zip with no compression. 7 zip does that with the "store" setting...not sure about the mac version.
You don't wanna know where this was sent from.

anyone know how to convert a .zip to .apk correctly?
So I been playing with this and some help as some things I was able to manage to work and some not. Tried coping and pasting some of the files using root explorer as well some worked some didnt. I read that I needed the deodex rom to use kitchen so... I Flashed that with oden as well. Still the same problems occur. I really like to customize my phone but, it seems I can get some things to work right some not. If somone would be so kind to help me out get this straighten out I would HIGHLY appericate it. Im using the EP1W debloated rom with TW4 Launcher. Im missing a few widgets but, the only I really would like to get on there is the Feeds & Updates (preferly not pink header) which seems to be the only one around I can find. In the kitchen I was able to get the battery icon changed and with some copy paste I was able to change the boot animation. The Icons themselfs on the top like time,date etc... didnt take. Thanks in advance if someone can lend me there expertise.
Honestly, UOT I really only find useful for the battery icons. Yeah it can do other things, but its so much easier to just modify the files yourself. I use apk manager and it works great for me. Here is the thread for it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1100696 My suggestion, if you want to modify the appearance of your phone is to do it manually via apk manager.

Its actually very easy. I'll help you out. Go on uot and go to the kitchen. Select all the tweaks/themes/icons/boot animations you want. When you are done go to the file upload tab. From here, open up your rom using winrar. Go to framework and drag and drop your framework-res.apk and twframework (something along that line, youll see it.) Then look for systemUI.apk. I think its under the app folder right when you open up your rom with winrar. After you got these files out of the rom then upload them to uot by clicking file upload and then click on system files. When this is done uploading click on summary and if everything is highlighted in green then your good to go, submit the work to the kitchen. It will give you a pickup number, copy that number and click on the pickup tab... From there, just wait for your order to come up. Download the file and flash in recovery. Profit? Yes. I hope this helps.
And if your rom is deodexed,then your good to go. Dont over think things, itll give you a headache.

Anyone successfully remove the Verizon Wireless from the lock screen yet. I have made many attempts via frameworkâres to no avail. I have made changes to the eri.xml as well as adding/changing the spn-conf. Any ideas or tips would be appreciated.
Thanks
I am assuming the info comes from the SIM card because when its not inserted the phrase, "No SIM card, Emergency Calls Only" is displayed in the same place Verizon Wireless normally is. There has to be a handoff between the SIM Card and code via an XML file someplace but I have yet to find it. If anyone has any info please let me know.
I'd be willing to bet 5 bucks there is an xml edit in framework-res.apk or systemui.apk that would get rid of it , If I come across it i'll let you know for sure.

Ive checked strings in both and neither had any reference. I will check again because i am pretty sure it has to be in framework-res.
Ya I see a lot of lock screen entries in framework-res strings.xml but nothing with plain verizon wireless, i see all the other possible things that could popup and it does look like its linked to the sim from there. I also see a reference to carrierLabel in systemui public.xml with an id of 0x7f0f00ae no idea where its linked to though as of yet will keep digging.
EDIT: Question for you guys are you running ICS touchwiz roms or aosp or what? I ask because I'm on a AOSP jelly bean rom and it might be different then what you guys have
I'm thinking this is going to require editing some smali files most likely, do me a favor and see if you have this file in your systemui.apk:
SystemUI\com\android\systemui\statusbar\phone\CarrierLabel.smali

Thanks.
The two entries I am looking for are:
Verizon Wireless
No Sim Card..Emergency calls Only
Those two phrases pop up in the same place on the lock screen when booting and/or once booted up.
Some other phones like the Nexus have thier carrier lable linked to an eri.xml and/or an spn-conf.xml located in /system/etc and or in /data right on the phone. No need to even decompile an APK, but the GS3 seems to be a little different as none of those tricks worked.
There is an eri.xml located in framework-res/res/xml/eri.xml. But nothing there referencing verizon or a sim card. Looks like a generic xml.

I am running a stock deodexed TW ICS Rom.
Yes I have that xml in SystemUI but that smali should reference a string I would have thought? I thought the smali was to execute and not dictate what the actual phrase. I am far from an experienced coder though so what do I know.
Its late, I will look over this smali tomorrow when I have a little more time.
If we could get a few people digging for this we could probably find it in less than a week...
Thanks for the help!

I have tried those too...LOL. They seem to be for either ASOP only or JB. Just for giggles I tried them again to be sure and still no go.
Glad it worked for you though!
Derp I goofed I didnt give you the link in the second edit for what actually worked for me anyhow I'll give you what you need for your ics version.
Do a nandroid backup before making any changes just in case
1) Download eri.xml onto your desktop or some folder you will remember where it has been placed.
2) Open "eri.xml" with something such as NotePad or WordPad and edit everywhere you see "Whatever you want or delete this and nothing will show up". You can simply change the text or delete the text between the quotations and nothing will show up.
3) Save "eri.xml" and copy it to the root of your SD Card.
4) Open Root Explorer or an app similar, copy "eri.xml" from your SD card to "/data" directory.
5) Reboot, and Enjoy!

Alright one more try on one other thing that may work as well, definitely do a nandroid before you try this one as well.
1) Download spn-conf.xml file i have attached onto your desktop or some folder you will remember where it has been placed.
2) Open "spn-conf.xml" with something such as NotePad or WordPad and edit where you see Verizon Wireless.
3) Save "spn-conf.xml" and copy it to the root of your SD Card.

Stock Deodexed Rom with a dozen or so self installed MODs. All I did was root, custom recovery, and start loading up a few favorite mods like:
Time toggle on/off
AM/PM toggle on/off
center clock
small am/pm
expanded setting for MMS
battery full removed
keyboard icon removed
...and a few others.
Otherwise, stock ROM rooted and deodexed.
Well you may want to consider going with a custom rom, things like this are so much easier on a custom rom because dev's enable these type of goodies . I don't know why anybody isn't on cm10 builds personally ive been running paranoid android for several weeks as my daily driver with no issues at all. But if you like the TW UI I can understand.

well I have painfully gone through each and every XML in framework and none hold the key to removing the carrier name from the lockscreen. I know this because I have swapped each XML from a sprint rom (which does not have the carrier name on the lockscreen) with mine and the Verizon Wireless remained in place. I will go through some of the APKs in /system/app next and see what I can find. I was sure it would have been in framework though.

I have a cool crisp $1 bill waiting to be donated to who ever can figure out how to make this go away on a stock, rooted, deodexed, ICS 4.04 ROM.
Seriously, I have just about exhausted all possibilities that I can think of.
Thanks for any help anyone can offfer!
