After much consternation and having stepped away from my first attempt for a few weeks, due to issues finding a few troublesome locations for inverting, I believe I finally have a version adequate for release. This inverted app is based on Sprint release 3.70, deodexed ROM.
The inverted HtcContacts.apk supplied is 100% stand-alone, meaning all elements needed to support the application inversion, which were previously part of shared resources in com.htc.resources are now stored directly with the supplied apk. While doing it this way requires a significantly greater amount of work, it is beneficial in the long run, as inverting as a stand alone application means NO impact in any way on other applications that share resources within com.htc.resources (or framework-res for that matter). Inverting in this manner requires extensive XML, resource, and .smali code edits.
Please consider this a work-in-progress. I believe I have found most locations, however, there are so many screens, fonts, backgrounds, etc, that it is certainly feasible that I missed a few things. If you find such instances, please report so in this thread and I'll do my best to track down. It's also important to note that after some clicks, you may see the old school white background with black text. In such instances, you are likely being taken out of contacts and into another application altogether, such as when you click the 'Facebook' link in the online directories tab (tab 3), or 'Company Directory', etc.
Per user requests (and I agree), I've also renamed the application to 'Contacts', as opposed to 'People', so when you go looking for it in your app drawer, be sure to look farther up in your list than its previous location.
Here are a few screen captures of the inverted application:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The attached zip file, to be flashed via recovery, now supports both old school update-script, and new school updater-script syntax, which means it should work for any recovery version you may be running.
Update 3/14/2011: Version 2.0 provided with fixes to 2 screens that were missed originally (setting a default action from the people widget & settings screen for specific contact's updates & events)
Update 3/17/2011: Version 3.0 provided with with fix to text on contacts photo picker dialog screen.
Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo =]
about to test this out!
Your the best! I know you can port over the aosp phone.apk!

Awesome work again JS. Just wondering, is this completely free from com.htc.resources? Meaning, you built in everything like com.htc.widget.TabSwitchWidget, etc. that handles the bottom slider? Or you just replaced xml and image references to com.htc.resources only?
EDIT: Thanks.
i know its a minor thing to ask for but do you have this with the original name, People?
if not where is the string located? thanks. =]

Thanks. It is not completely free from com.htc.resources, rather, anything that is related to being able to invert the application ONLY, is free from com.htc.resources, which is mostly XML and PNG related.

You simply modify the app_label(?) string in the string resources that the manifest points to.

I would love to know how to change the fonts and stuff for the hero.
Me too! I am a photoshop kind of guy. Hence the cool S2U2 stuff for WinMo. cause all that was was editing images, which i can handle... but all this signing, and actual code im at a loss. Where did you read up on making your theme? Maybe we can combine forces and crank out some really killer stuff. If you want to "check my resume" so to speak I used the same nickname at PPCGeeks, i was pretty into at one time, but i got banned from PPCGeeks, and switched to Android....

Look up Ratcom on here. His sig has the tutorials that got me started (its a bit confusing at first).
From what I can tell, to edit anything that isn't an image, its located in an XML file. The odd thing is that even Dreamweaver couldn't open the code correctly...
I'd be all for teaming up. My schedule is a bit crazy atm (finals week) but then I go on Xmas break and i'd love to do more with this theme. I've already got a couple more ideas...

Themes require NO coding. Purely PNG editing. You can open a ROM using a ZIP program (I like WinRar myself). All you do is find the image you want to edit, edit it, and overwrite the existing one.
Signing is very straightforward too, just follow the Ratcom links. You'll find a working mirror and instruction.

XML files located inside of an APK are effectively compiled, there's no way to edit / repackage them. You can Google search, there's a java "printer" which will convert them to TXT. But to change any of these, you've gotta start from the source code, make the changes and then compile the entire APK.
I could be wrong on this, but I believe HTC has released the GSM code but not CDMA. In this case we're stuck or would have to pull a compiled XML from a known GSM source. Actual ROM chefs can correct me.
So, since we are finally getting some stickies posted around here. A Theme creation write up would be a good idea if anyone wanted to take it on. I've never done it, I'm sure I am capable, just to lazy.
BTW. This looks good. Anyone test with Fresh 1.0? Most themes seem to have issues.

There already is, and riotkid found it. Look up Ratcom (check GSM Hero themes) and the link in his sig. He's got links to everything you need to know.
Haha awesome work! I love it.
Edit: Your taskbar is missing a bunch of the new icons. I assume you applied a different lock screen or something, right? Because vibrate, battery, and alarm are all new icons in fresh 1.0 but yours are the stock ones.

Settings.apk. Koni has a clear version in his ROM that you can yank. However, the actual background itself is in com.htc.resources.apk. All the other icons are in Settings.apk. Oh, and the background is a .9 png, 'appwidget_bg.9.png'.

ive never really looked for it cause i dont use it but if i had to guess it is in the htcsettingswidgets.apk as well as some of the framework files or htc resources files to make some of the backgrounds transparent
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6247124&postcount=1278
There's a theme with it. I asked about it a while ago but never really followed up. I'd like this as well.
where's the background and buttons for the android (not htc) search widget? I think I found it in framework-res.apk, but I still couldn't find the red g in the button at the end, just the google in the text field.

Which, as mentioned, is Settings.apk, spread across com.htc.resources.apk (for the background).

gotcha my bad. i looked in the settings.apk and thought about doing it that way but if i went into resources and made all those transparent then they would be stuck with the htcresources file that i choose and will lose it if he flashes anything new really

I know. That sucks. It's actually just 1 file in htcresources, the background for the widget.
The best way is either to either have them manually edit, or create a MetaMorph, so that it doesn't affect other settings.
I'm really starting to think that MetaMorph is the way to go, given the way HTC has the 2.1 framework spread out all over the place...
that's the beauty if doing metamoprh... you can change just the files you want within an apk or a jar, without changing anything else. And it's breeze to setup, much easier than an update zip, I think.

I have no experience actually doing/editing this stuff, but this is getting me curious. If I was to try this on my own, I guess I wouldnt know what to do after I pulled the HtcSettingsWidget.apk out of my rom of choice. What prog would I even use to open it on my computer and edit it?

HtcSettingsWidget.apk is the wrong file. You're looking for Settings.apk. The HTC one is for the little rocker panel style widgets.
Also, you can configure WinZip to open .apks. Then its just a matter of editing .pngs.
That widget is from Konicub's Aloysius rom. You should contact him directly and ask for it.

we determined it wouldnt be possible to do without replacing his htcResources file completely cause there is a background file in there that needs to be changed. if he wants to post is hycResources file then i would be happy to create a flashable zip that will give him the clear power settings. but if he ever flashes a theme or different mod then he would lose it cause most of the mods and themes change the and once u change the file u lose what ever was changed in it before. the only way to avoid this is to create a metamorph file and i dont mess with that much.
I'll have ya a metamoprh either later tonight or tomorrow, depending on how busy I am today.
okay, put together quick, let me know if it works. It is a metamorph, not a flash, so won't change anything else.
Attached are a few modified Rosie.apk files for remapping the bottom sense launcher buttons / functionality.
EDIT: Updated 5/25/10 with new versions supporting Fresh 2.1.2. See Here for downloads.
EDIT: This post revised on 5/8/2009, reflecting the fixed version. Some of the posts/comments that follow are referring to the older (original) version and no longer apply.
The first attachment (RosieMT3G.apk) moves the phone launcher button to the left, the app drawer, with fully functioning up/down (open/close) arrows, to the middle, and replaces the 'add shortcut' button on the right with an 'open contacts' button, similar to the functionality found in Zenulator's MyTouch 3G ROM.
The second attachment simply removes the left / right buttons, leaving you with a center only button for opening / closing the app drawer.
This will NOT modify your launcher graphics (in the first example espresso & second example a custom droid style launcher), as this is controlled in com.htc.resources.apk, however, it will switch out the icons (as shown), on your current Rosie / launcher, null out the 'Phone' text, center the launcher icon, and of course, remap the buttons.
What this does/will give you is the entire sense experience, but with a more 'Vanilla' launcher like functionality. For some, the best of both worlds.
Known Bugs:
None currently!
Push the desired apk to your phone's '/system/app' directory, or drop on your sd card and click to install.
You may want to backup your existing Rosie.apk, should you wish to return to stock.

EDIT 2: If you are designing a custom rosie using a concept / look similar to the stock HTC 3-button rosie, see here for an alternative XML file to replace in any of the attached apk files, to adjust the spacing used between buttons.
NOTE: After downloading your desired apk, rename to 'Rosie.apk' before pushing to your phone.
I decompiled Rosie yesterday and found a few .smali's to play with, but I got lazy. LOL Which ones are you looking at?
Edit, another suggestion would be downloading Zen's My Touch rom and rip apart Rosie from there. I loaded it up last night, but the 100% always on was killing my battery.

Yea, it's much easier to edit our existing rosie than to port over a different one using a newer/modified framework.
I was/am all other the place on this mod, but mostly working in 'launcher.smali' and 'Launcher$ButtonListener.smali', in addition to some XML edits.

I took a look at it, the framework is very different. Almost like apples and oranges. The bug is more related to the way I "hacked" it to work more than anything else.
Thanks for getting this working, now i can use the theme i made for zens rom the first day it came out, cus i really liked how it just looked cleaner, and the button mapping makes more sense logically. Thanks again.

Hello Folks! With the permission of IcculusX, I made a small edit to his Luna theme so that it installs flawlessly on ShadowROM v0.0.1 for the Incredible.
All credit should go to IcculusX for designing such a classy theme.
Important Notes from IcculusX:
IMPORTANT WARNING: Although it is nearly impossible to truly mess up your phone beyond simple repair, I must make this statement public for obvious reasons: I will NOT be held responsible for any data loss or phone damage of any kind due to the installation of this theme. It is your own personal decision to install any file I provide. Truthfully, over the past few months I have had almost every single issue happen to my phone and would be more than happy to assist you if you encounter any problems. I am a nice guy and will try my best to help you problem-solve.
OWNERSHIP WARNING: The “Luna Theme” is my own personal art work and property, and hosted on my web-space where all of my themed graphical content is held in published ownership by me. Google and all other creators hold rights to the other files within this original package, and all themed images within these hosted files are copyright by myself. Please feel free to edit the theme however you feel to your own liking for personal use, however if you want to edit my theme and post it for others to download you MUST contact me first ([email protected]) for permission to do so. This theme is a work of art and used as a portfolio piece of mine, and it took me a lot of stressful time and I would like to keep it as my own. Months. Thank you for understanding.
CREDITS AND THANKS: First off, thank you to all of my followers, those who gave donations, and those who spread the word of my work in such praise. Secondly, no one ever gives Google any credit in themes so I would like to gratefully thank Google for choosing open-source and making everything so simply laid out and easy to mess around with. Huge thanks to the great hackers who made toying with this phone such an easy task. Big thanks to the community at DroidForum.net who are always helpful and spreading the breaking news. Also big thanks to blackdroid, Koush, cvpcs, pete, and all developers for their hard work on custom ROMs. Thanks to Xeudoxus for creating xUltimate which makes editing so well understood and easy to work through. I always try to give credit where credit is due so please contact me personally if there is someone missing that I have forgotten to note. Thank you. Lastly, a very special shout-out to music like Shpongle, Phish, Amon Tobin, Medeski Martin & Wood, Bela Fleck, Bonobo, and many more great musicians for keeping my mind active while working on Photoshop for hours and hours and hours........
Lots of Screenshots
Original Theme Thread
Luna Theme Website with Download Link
IcculusX has plenty of screenshots, from the Original Droid, at the above link and the theme looks the same on the Incredible, so I only attached one of my home screen.
Special Thanks to IcculusX for designing the theme AND INSANENEIVIESIS and billygalbreath for the great ShadowRom!!!

I'm pretty sure that it will only work for ShadowRom, or maybe another AOSP rom, but not sense roms like Skyraider.
Looks really nice, too bad it's only for ShadowRom but I'll try it on Skyraider, you never know it might work.
Mind expanding this for us stock deodexed users??
Looks great.
Loaded fresh shadowrom and this theme. Not really digging the status bar icons but otherwise an extremely nice very extensive theme.

After installing this did it kill your soft key lights? I can't seem to get them to light back up.

It seemed to do that to me on ShadowRom alone, but changing the brightness from auto turned them back on.

I'm still learning, but I'll see what I can do (with the dev's permission of course). No promises.

That only works when your using it after you change the brightness from auto. Once you put the phone back to sleep when it wakes up you have to manually do that every time. Did anyone notice this issue with shadowrom or is it actually LunaTheme, I hope it can be fixed cause I love this rom and theme together they are nothing short of Incredible.

Thanks, that worked. Just wondering why it changed them when I didn't even have the custom light levels box checked.

Best theme ever! Thanks Jermaine!
does any one know if its possible to have the call screen(middle pic) on a sense rom? is it part of the vanilla dialer?
Trailblazer101's Modified "Return to Call" Screen
What this Mod Does:
Completely revamps the "Return to Call" screen (aka The ticker screen you see when you navigate out of the "In Call" Phone screen).
Basically, I changed that screen into a two button screen; one button is the original "Return To Call" button, and the second one "Ends the Call."
These buttons are just that, buttons... As in, it changes color (blue) when you click it These buttons are of the same theme as the "Incoming Call" Ticker Screen Buttons, so that everything matches up nicely...
My Favorite New Feature:
You can Hang up with someone without exiting your favorite full screen game, or wasting your battery with turning on the full screen!
I spent a lot of time working on this, guys... I know it doesn't seem like much, but this mod was created from scratch... I had to rewrite the layout, make the images, and everything else... I also had to modify the Services.jar to accept this mod, which wasn't fun That took the most time, because there is a lot going on in the background that I had to accompany for...

Requirements:
This is for EC07 only You also need to be deodexed, but that should go without saying
Also, because this edits two (2) framework files (framework-res and services), I needed to package this up with my other mods to make it compatible for everyone...
Flashing this package will give you 1) Accurate Modded Touchwiz 2.2 Theme 2) AOSP Lockscreen/Reboot Options 3) Modified Settings w/ Clock Toggles 4) This Mod

Source Information:
I decided to go along with other developers work and turn to something a little different than just the files I modified... I would be perfectly okay with just supplying those, and you copying them in, but once you know how to work this new source format you will learn to like it I promise
All of the *.patch files are just notepad text files, with that extension to differentiate between the patches and the real files. You might be a little confused when first looking at the patch, but don't fret! Here is a brief rundown:
Any line before the "<" and ">" are just letting you know where you are at...
"<" = You remove that/those lines...
">" = You add in that/those lines...
This is special, because now you just aren't copying in my final versions of the files over into your decompiled source; you can actually see/learn what had to be done in order to make this mod, and let you learn/participate in the process.. This is also important, because you can use these files as a base line, and port this over to future/previous builds yourselves, because there might be differences in the decompiled source and just my edited *.smali/*.xml files that would cause major/unbootable errors!
Like I said though, I can just give you the files, but I don't really want to... This way, everyone who told me that they wanted to learn some things that I know, can!
If you like it, don't forget to 'thank' me, and if you want, you can 'Donate' to me, too
Lovely as always

Very much appreciated. I will be flashing as soon as I have something to contribute.

Thanks guys Does it work okay for everyone that tried it?
this will undoubtedly be included in my rom
do you mind sharing specifically what files you have modified/changed? i only ask because i would like to include this, however i am working on some tweeks of my own in the services.jar and framework-res and would find it easier to simple swap the smali files from one framework to another
This looks awesome, but is there any way to get this mod without all the other mods? I've been mod-free and my phone has never run better. I was thinking of taking the plunge with this mod until I read it includes all the mods I have avoided putting back on my phone.
Love how you make it harder for me to implement all your mods into one, too theme. Keeping me on my toes

No go on my end. Flashed through cwm and my phone would not boot up. boot animation showed and then it shut itself off and wouldn't come back on until I pulled the battery.
Are you on ec07 deodexed? :l

Running miunia beta4
I don't run custom roms (I add/remove things myself), that's just me... So I don't know the configuration for these roms.... I'll take a look, and see if I can figure things out, though
EDITED: May you please post a logcat?
Thanks,
Trailblazer
