Hi all.
I did search, but most come up around when there was no root.
Am i able to change the blue in menus, contacts ect? My phone is rooted.
You want to remove "blue" from everything ? You never did a search did you ? This is in the first few posts of the forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737778
haha!, sorry. i thought that was just a regular theme. thankyou
Hi All,
I've been trying to figure out how to theme by taking a theme apart and then comparing stuff to my phone. I got "most" of the Revolution Theme working properly on my Mez. It was taken from the Fascinate Theme Thread...
The only thing that I've found that has a force close is trying to go into sound settings...
Anyone know where that file is in the theme pack that I need to change?
I've attached a screen shot for your review of what it looks like.
OK, I got it working. I had to pull out my Settings.apk, make the changes to it and then put it back into the package. Seems to be working well now.
The only thing that hasn't changed that I want to change is the lock screen. Anyone know what files specifically need to be modded to change that?
Anyone interested in trying it out? Remember to do a backup before giving this a try!
I'm running SuperClean .2 with a voodoo kernel as a reference point
Put it on the root of your SDcard and then boot into clockwork and choose install Retrokid_Revolution_DJ05_V3.6.mez.zip.

I'll give it a go.
As a point of reference:
Variant of the voodoo kernal
Pick-n-Pack rom
Hope you like it. I have to figure out how to fix the lock screen though.

I'll be looking at it too, as this goes along with what I'm doing while I'm on vacation anyway. I am not 100% sure, but I think the lock screen and a few other things that you are going to want, are going to be in the framework.res.
Another note, this uses aosp mms.apk which has a problem still with sending and receiving picture messages.
I got it installed. (Sorry it took so long, I didn't realize I was at 3% battery when I posted)
Installed with no issues, however I'm getting a big difference in the battery meter. My widget says 65%, the rpm battery gauge says 80%.
Also, it reinstalled Mail, which I had taken off in the Pick-n-Pack. Was that in the zip?
Yes, mail was included as one if the customized apps. Hmmm, you didn't want mail? Not sure how to remove that. Do you liked it? I live the font and different icon scheme.
The mms its a problem but I was going that once it got fixed that I'd be able to update it.

I unzipped it, system-app, and took out the programs I didn't like. All in all it looks pretty good. I will use it again when the mms issue is fixed (I send A LOT of picture messages)
Updated File - Screenshots
Got it perfect now. I didn't like the battery meter in the first try.

Just as a thought, you might want to change the name slightly. The DJ05 part of the name has to do with the release version. The Mesmerize is currently on DI14. Nothing critical right now, just confusing if and when we start getting updates and things need to be changed for themes to work with different ROMs.
Great work, btw. Glad to see others are working on stuff for the Mesmerize.
Good point. I'll make the change to the file name.
Thanks!
So, in order to install this all I need to do is flash it in clockworkmod recovery after booting in recovery mode? I almost have this flashing down, but haven't tried a theme yet...

Yes, make a backup using Clockwork or Rom Manager first, then boot into Clockwork recovery. Scroll to Install from zip. Select "Choose zip" then navigate to it on your SD card. Select it and it will install. Let me know how you like it.
I will for sure, thanks man.

Dude this is awesome! I love the notification bar (transparency, GPS/wifi/etc icons, black, signal & battle icons), and the font, and the way the texting looks (even though I only use Google voice) and the search bar, and stars and checkmarks, and loading icon.
A couple issues I have with it though:
+When you hit the menu button, its impossible to read the black text on the black background the text should be white or grey I think
+ the battery meter isn't very accurate (according to "battery status"). I would love if the battery could be more accurate, because the app I have right now has almost the same icon for telling how full the batt is (only yours looks way cooler, and its on the other side of the notif bar, which I like)
+Then the last thing is this font, which I think there's something I can do to fix. I like the font on my keyboard and in menus and stuff, but I don't really want it on every webpage and text. I use dolphin browser, you know what I could do?
Last thing, is it possible to make Google voice look like the normal texting app, or different in any way? I'm not a huge fan if the way it is now.
Overall I really like it, and I'm keeping it : ) thanks!

Trying this out on my Super Clean .3 rom with voodoo kernel.
Can confirm that this works and is sexy; I agree with the three gripes above though. Can't read the menu buttons, battery isn't perfect, and the font is a bit annoying. If possible the status bar might look a little better with a slight gradient, though that might just be the wallpaper or whatever. Overall, this is a good theme.
-herpderp-
A couple more spots I've noticed the font is a hard color...
-android keyboard, white squares appear above the letters you press with no letters in them.
-on notification bar, most apps have white text and is a bit difficult to read on grey background.
-theres another one that I forgot where now....
And since I flashed this my YouTube isn't working, and I can't download from mediafire.... haha I think that might be a fluke, but Its weird: s

Is the anyway to change the grey keyboard to the white keyboard without changing the theme to Light?
Sent from my HTC-HD2 using Board Express
I don't believe there is, although the keyboard is automatically white on stuff like email.

they should create a registry key for this.
This a pink theme. I got some of the images from the ping GenerationX theme by D3StRoY found here. However most of the images and apps are my work.

My wife is really loving this theme! She does have 4 suggestions:
1. Make the locked screen button pink instead of the redish color.
2. In the Call log of the dialer, the phone numbers for each contact show up as orange. She would like them changed to pink.
3. Make the clock pink in the status/notification bar instead of the current grey.
4. In the default browser when you load up a webpage, she was wondering if the bar that shows the webpage loading progress could be Pink instead of orange? I told her this probably isn't possible, but then again it might be. I have no clue
The locked screen button color changed is the main thing she wanted, let me know if you need screenies for any of these. Your theme let me convince my wife that she should root her phone to customize it further, so thanks again!!
looks good! gonna get this for the gf

Haha, I figured you would need them. I was trying to take the lazy way out. Sorry I got a little scribble happy on the call log page, let me know if you need me to do it again. What phone do you have? A fascinate? Pretty nice of you to do this without owning the phone.
I just forgot a couple other things she told me. And one thing I think would be cool...
1. Change the 4g logo in the status bar to pink
2. When you select an icon, it has a orange border. Would be nice if it were pink
3. I was wondering how hard it is to remove the location icon. If all the other things are pink, it would be nice if that just went away. If that's hard to do, maybe make the pink so it fits in with everything else?
edit. Donation sent, really appreciate what you do! Trying to make my wife like android as much as I do.

I have a custom background on the lock screen, home screen, and stock messaging screen (the one with the chat bubbles).
However, within the phone's setting menu the theme wallpaper is being used.
Honestly, I'm starting to feel like the option to change that background is right under my nose. I. Just. Can't. See. It!
Please help me.
I'm using a Galaxy Note 5 from T-Mobile.

You can't not change the settings background without theme or a root mod...in other words it's not a setting within stock settings
Ugh. That's unfortunate. Especially with some themes putting discordant backgrounds in the settings menu. Such an awful tease.
Do you know how if it's possible to make our own themes?
