[Q] CM 6 Theming

Hope posting this here is OK- I never get answers in Q&A...
I have made & modified themes for the SE stock 'rom' and as you know the framework-res and system apks do not need to be recompiled or signed when just exchanging images.
Is it the same for CM 6 'roms'?
I am looking into theming Wolfbreak's rom and noticed the framework-res that I'm using as a base says "signed by SignApk" when I open it in winrar.
Do I need to recompile & sign or not?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
You dont need to sign regardless of OS if you are only swapping images for system files. But remember to use optimized pngs and zipalign as final step to minimize resources consumption.
If you are modding any resources.arsc you need to decompile to do that and recompile and sing accordingly.

Ok, thanks- just making sure... the winrar message threw me off...

[MOD][XXKQB]Swipe to Remove Notifications

Hey guys, I have Ported swipe to remove notifications for the I9001,
It's similar to the ICS one, thanks to hansip87 for his Porting guide
I have created a CWM package, just flash it via FeaMod Recovery, (stock recovery might work, haven't tried it)
the phone will take quite some time to bootup after installation, don't worry
Remember you require XXKQB deodexed firmware, So deodex before trying this mod.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emGp...DvjVQa1PpcFPn6dwKkWC1MMm4clPvDKa5ZylOiPvUveI=
EDIT: tweaked the animation's slightly in (2), will be easier to swipe with the thumb now.you'll notice that swiping left will be easier, than swiping right, cause our thumb doesn't move in a linear motion while swiping right (if you are right handed) this can be tweaked.
Please let me know which one works the best or if they need to be tweaked more.
EDIT:Added Package for Moon ROM v4.0
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFQN...DvjVQa1PpcFPn6dwKkWC1MLdqyRxI0qOBOQqSwbLsC_M=
EDIT: Added package for BroodRom.
EDIT:Set the packages to half swipe, this means you have to swipe from one edge to the center or slightly ahead.
If you liked this Mod then please press the thank's button

woohooo, so u succeeded ! i wrote to u in that thread, i was getting bootloops when i tried it a few weeks ago. great to see u did it ! Nice work man, big thanks

Really cool! It works with MoonROM but change theme...Hmm :S

Thanks man, I tried it once and stuck very early, wanted to try it again after my exams, but now you did it. Is it okay if I integrate it directly in my ICS-Theme? Would be just awesome!
Cheers

ICS theme with this mod will be great.
but gotta find the perfect swipe setting first
please test it and let me know.

Nice job dude!
Some other people also tried to make it work (including me) but failed. Really cool feature .
@ macdroid2:
It changes the theme because for this mod the systemUI.apk will be replaced. And there the moonrom theme isn't included. You could copy the moonrom .png files (from systemUI.apk) to the systemUI.apk of this mod..

awesome work

I'm noob on this type of things, it's easy to do? :$ sorry..

Attach the moon ROM framework.jar and systemui.apk file.

hey nail, nice done. But which framework.jar did you use? Because this is not the original KQB one.

I used the framework.jar from XXKQB Deodexed package made by you,
this one http://www8.zippyshare.com/v/49143861/file.html
Why what's wrong ?

Don't know if there are other things to change in the framework.jar for the theme.
I think you can simply unzip the systemUI.apk (if it doesn't work, rename it to systemUI.zip) and copy the files from /res/drawable-hdpi to the modded unzipped systemUI.
After that repack it (with compression setting -> store, in german it is named "speichern", don't know the exact name in english, but should be store), rename in systemUI.apk and try it.

There are a lot of different smali-files in the framework.jar if I compare it with the stock one. But as far as its working

got it installed on the moon rom, works fine. unfortunately, though, it kills off the other button settings in the status menu (i.e. there's also data connectivity, gps and so on, that you get to by swiping the buttons to the left)
so, ironically, your great work stops swiping

You had made the deodex package so you know better,
what rom's framework.jar is it actually ?
As long as it work's how it's supposed to, there's no problem

System/app/Priv/SystemUI.apk
System/app/Settings.apk
Click to expand...

SO Extract the zips
Got to Res folders of each apk
For Example if you are working on Settings go to
Res folder in both your rom and the cm11
in your rom go to the the file which is related to your screen resolution
Eg.
For HDPI -(drawable-hdpi)
and same with cm11 and then start comparing the pictures the both folders and there might be nice pics in (drawble-XXHDPI) folder and that doesnt mean you can take all the pics from drawable-XXHDPI after choosing your stuff replace your images and rename if necessary ( if the images look exactly the same and with different name and rename to the name of picture in your name and replace the pic ) just go into the main folder of the file of your app which you extracted and zip of your rom
For Eg. Its Setting app
after you have edited the pics
Some Other Tips
There are few pictures in blue try to edit theme with gimp or Image Editor By Byte Experts
For chaning Default Wallpaper
Go to framework-res.apk

Great guide. Just one point/tip if I may, I see it a lot that People suggest to rename an apk to zip, well in order to open a zip you obviously need to have a program capable of doing so, so just set apks to open with your preferred zip program which will cut out the unnecessary step of having to rename each apk you want to mod.

Great thread. Helped me a lot since I'm working on a Android L themed ROM for the galaxy express using Pacrom as base. I've managed to get the settings.apk theme changed like the header and color and stuff. Trying to change the icon colors in settings and theme the dialer and framework res. Whenever I theme the dialer and framework res it the dialer doesn't show up after replacing via system/priv-app permissions -rw-r-r-. And the framework res cause a boot loop. All I did was change some pngs and .9 images and edited the XML's dimensions and styles XML to match up then made any necessary changes to the drawables due to kitkats new theming process. Shoot me a PM thanks In advance.

Well it lots like you have normally edited .9.pngs like any other picture so there is a force close as framework runs throughout the system there is probably a boot loop for now take the apks from youe rom and flash them from recovery and after that while editing .9.pngs you first decompile the apk
Then select the picture leaving that black dots and the border and save and recompile.
I have attached the video in first post

well actually there can be a number of ways for this to happen...being a rom chef i have myself encountered these problems while rom development
the major cause is the SIGNATURE CHECK.every app and dex file is signed with a key if an app is different from the rest of the apps by signature the the syatem fails to execute or install it this ends with the no statusbar error
as for build number sonty hasnt modeified the systemui in current updates so i dont think that build is any problem

tnx for reply

tnx bro, this is what happen, i've choose one systemui thats works perfectly with them and start to modify that systemui, some of them can use that modified ui some cannot , as you said maybe the signature check is the one reason so we can fix this if i will used the androidmanifest and meta-inf of that unmodified systemui to my modified systemui?again thanks for your response bro.

Again Thank you @darkera13 to bringing out and Big Thanks to @arter97 for making it noob friendly..
working in my i9500

Omg finally. Great!

Now this time for upgrade to Lollipop.. Gonna try it later..

Yes!!Finally!!
From my s4 Powered by
Prism barebone v15
LWK or VoLTage kernel.

This leaves more questions than answers. Can someone make a flashable zip for our S4 by compiling the files from the sources or does it have to be done specifically for every device??
Hope our top developers can integrate xposed with their ROMs soon.
Anyway kudos to the original developer for cracking the pandora's box

At last ! Xposed Framework for Samsung Lollipop ! But i am still newbie and didnt know how to recompile or decompile file. Can you make a flashable zip ?

Wow Good

Yaeh i see it in android forum, i were try to add it but takes some time and im too lazy for that..
I will let you know if it worked in i9500 too

I can make a flashable zip but the problem maybe it wont work more than stock s4 LP

Can anyone share the compiled files it would be great

It would help if you did. Thanks in advance!

did it worked for anyone ? i am using s4 9505 stock rooted...please let me know if it would work on my rom

What would be nice is a list of the files in the services.jar.out smali that contain the line
Ljava/lang/String;->clear()V
instead of needing to go through every one of them... too time consuming imho

i found them

You can search folder with notepad+ guys is all automatic.
On aurora works ok, but I can't install apps, I need to push them manually and that's not cool at all. For now I ll be without it and when the great devs fix this will try again.
Well the great devs works hard and fast, now is all working!
Welcome xposed to tw lollipop!

I think it's sorted out.
Instead of flashing xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430.zip form mentioned in OP Flash it from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3113463
I am booting device and now Android Upgrading regularly....
Which was going to finish in secong before this.
Once upgrading finish, will try to install application
Edit : Confirmed - Now Application Installed regularly on N910G. I have modded jar but it should work without editing jar too as OP of thread didn't asked for it.
Edit 2:
1.Install XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha2.apk from here
2.Flash xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430-arter97.zip from above said link
That's it.
No needs to modify any jar now.
