[Q] Updated to CM12, now my icons are weird! - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, just update my 1+1 to Lollipop age today.
Everything works good but looks weird!
Look, can someone tell me why my icons have this bright color frames on it?
Looks like rainbow on drugs on phone...
Any helps? I´m using Apex launcher but in default launcher looks same..
Menu look
Screen look

I suppose you're taking about CM12S, that's hexo theme icons that come by default, you can change theme in settings, themes, select the one on the right that is system, click on it once and two buttons will appear, press on the green one that says apply, there you go! Hope I helped.

The icons are built in within the theme. Change the theme and your icons also should be changed.
There are loads of themes for CM12 and you can chose which suits your taste.

Thank you, I changed theme to normal Android and now looks normal

[Q] x10i 2.1 transparent status bar?

transparent? not that i know. but you can use third party homescreen launchers to make it "invisible"
Transparant would be cooler though!

Not yet, but... I've pulled the framwork-res.apk and modified the backgroud to the task bar and have attached the results.
I haven't modified anything else in the bar, hence the icons for signal etc are still blue/black... but I will do.
The only problem with this is what colour do you have the text on the bar, as the background in apps also comes through
(I was thinking that instead of a fully see through bar, that I'd create an opaque one when I get home, as I only have paint on this PC)
EDIT: I was also looking to modify the lock screen to be slightly opaque, to match the bar at the top
Will post updates here once I've done them
Looking forward to the results!

I can remove the background to the icons, there is just a lot of them and I am at work, plus I have photoshop on my mac at home, and only MSpaint here.
I'll see what I can do for the glass effect, and was thinking of doing a few different see through colour variants (i.e. black, white, red etc)
As before, I think the main issue is going to be the text, but if there is a tint of colour, it should be easy enough to read (we'll see)
Hopefully I'll be able to put up a very beta version today or tomorrow, including the lock screen mods so you can see how it will look.
I'll put a new thread up when I have this beta bit done

I'm really looking forward to your transparent theme. I've been looking for one on my X10 for ages and I'm not skilled enough to do it myself.
Thanks in advance!

To be honest, I'm not sure. I haven't used the Metamorph app, so will give it a go.
I've been using adb to test
Update Time!
Quick update, its a little trickier than I originally anticipated, but more or the status bar icons have been updated (I still have a lot to do yet)
So, I thought I'd show what I have done so far...
As you can see, some of the test is difficult to see in the bar, but this should be fixed once I've get a decent glass like effect on the bar. If you're using a dark background, this is fine, but lighter backgrounds are not so good.
Also, the text and debug mode icons are not done, and some of the battery and internet down/upload icons are also not done (100 and 80% for battery are complete, and the icons where 3g is enabled but not uploading or downloading are not done.)
Still, I think there is decent (ish) progress, and hope to get something you can use after the weekend (maybe before it's out, but I don't want to follow SE's example of giving crap release dates )
PS. Sorry for the quality of the attachment, I use screencast through my PC which doesn't scale down well but is quicker than using a screenshot app on Android

Right, almost there with the black transparent bar...
Take a look at the screenies
I'm in process of writing an installer, but its late, so I'm not finishing it now.
What I have now will be the first version, I will be changing the lock screen and other home screen bluenesses (like where I have Vodafone and ongoing, I will make them match the colour of the status bar)
I will also be adding a few more colours, preferably from the same installer, but we'll see how that goes.
Finally, I want to change the white background on the status dropdown to be the same as the status bar, eg, in this case, black and transparent.
looking good dude

Indeed, this is lookin great. I do really really like the looks of the status bar.
An idea, I know your still in very early stage atm but when you release it with your installer why not make it configurable? What I mean is so when your installing it asks you what bits you want in your choice of colours. So it would be customisable and everyone could have a version of some spec of colour that would suit any theme.
This would make a great paid app if you ask me...

Great work/concept so far!
I had thought about trying a translucent status bar background before. Can't wait to see it.
I'm trying to learn about theming a little too when I have time...
ccan u share the files... we could also work on it .. while u can compile the installer
Looks really sleek and sexy. Can't wait to see how this turns out.
BTW, very beautiful babe you have on your screen.

If your still having a problem with the black text try putting the framework-res.apk in manually with root explorer!
I personally place the framework in the "overcom rom.zip" from my desktop
So maybe the cwm update is not working properly!
I dont have the text problem???
i really liked this theme on 1.4.x but the alpha level is little too low. the background distracts too much when i interact with the notification items. can it be increased a little bit? i mean make more opaque
the brightness bar is cool

I'm back again and tested your update.
First tru CWM and second tru Root explorer.
Everytime i wiped the Dalvik and still the same problem.
So i did a new rom flash currently Overcome 1.6.3.
Did the same thing over again to apply your theme.
As you can see there is still a difference between your screenshot and mine.
- i got text beneath the powerbuttons
- my display brightness shows text
- notification text is shown in black font
And i have found the reason but not the solution
If i change my "Local and text" to English language then your theme is as i should be.
If i change it back to my language (Dutch) your theme gets completely ...F-Word...
Only the notifications stay in black font even if i change the locale
So it has to be something with the locales, is there something you can do?

Try the new update! but not sure if it will work! i placed the strings.xml and arrays.xml in all the values folders (locales) so hopefully it will!

Did not work still the same issue.
The powerbutton and display brightness text.
But the notifications text has change into white font
well.. its not a bug but the problem im having is.. for example, when i pull down the notification bar, i can see the transparent layer which is fine but the transparency or alpha value for the transparent layer is too low for my liking. i sometimes cant distinguish between the items on notification and the items in the screen below the notification transpancy layer.

[Theme] Update:02/07/11 Dot-Matrix v2.0 Go-Launcher EX Theme

So this is my first theme Ive ever done. It took the better part of today and wasnt too difficult. I used the Go Launcher Theme Factory to build it. The home screen icons are custom made in either Illustrator or Photoshop. As Im not yet experienced with button layouts and styles, I would really love some feedback on what you think works and what doesnt.
I was really inspired by the Miui widget styles with the dot-matrix look. I havent paid for my dev account with Google Market yet, so please download this theme here. And thanks for all the critiques and what-not!
Update: 2/7/11 Ok so another update here. I added a few more icons for some commonly used apps. Only 7 of them. They are all 72x72 so they should match up with the background ok. Probably not exact but they should work.
Also the dock apps actually have 'twin' app icons in the app drawer that use the stock image. So these icons in the app drawer have the 'common' background image applied to them (blue square). you can replace the dock version icons for these default ones if you like them better. I placed them above the counterparts in the pics below. Other than this I also changed the app drawer tab look to the dot matrix style. makes things a little more cohesive.
I have also included a .zip file with all the dock icons in 60x60 format for you to put on your device and change manually. Just in case the apk leaves them out for some reason. When you change them manually they also tend to be just a little more crisp.
Hope you guys enjoy.
EDIT: I just noticed the app drawer tab icons are getting shrunk by go launcher so they dont match the background. Too tired to change them now. Maybe tomorrow, so.....late......zzzzzz

Do you think it may have something to do with me designing the icons small rather than starting big and shrinking them?

If you're using photoshop just set the DPI so that 1px = 1 dot. Then just set the canvas size to whatever the icon size is and you can "paint" in each pixel.
Just a thought..

Actually I was planning on giving this one away on the market for free since it is my first attempt. Im gettin the hang of the theme factory a bit now. It can be really confusing to replace some of the images properly. And with no Manual on how to use the dang thing, its all guess work.

Thanks, I was trying to use Illustrator with artboards that were the exacct size of the icons, but i think i was setting the dpi wrong because they would come out bigger. I guess ill stick to photoshop for my next ones. Wondering if icons are usually painted large then shrunk down?

I'm digging this theme. The ICS blue layout, the simple minimalist look is how I like my themes. Unfortunately, the dock icons look a little odd to me. Though I'd gladly use this if you kept improving on this theme.

That is exactly what i plan to do. I figured out my problem with the dock icon resolution problem too. Go Launcher shrinks the normal icon image from 72x72 down to 60x60 when you place the icon on the dock. I was making the dock icons at a resolution of 72x72. This is why the dots would look weird when they were put there. So im going to try and fix that by creating a template for myself. I will upload it onto a new thread with pixel guides for the various icon sizes and a psd file for people to create their own icons with. After doing all the pixel math I was able to layout all the guides for the home screen grid according to a 5x6 pattern.

Thanks for the explanations. I ended up trying this out on my mom's Fire last night and it looked awesome.
I then went ahead and loaded it up onto my Infuse and I'm definitely liking this theme more. I love the folder icons on this theme especially.
One of the things I noticed is that there was an icon pack when I installed it on the fire (one of them was the facebook icon which had some subtle snowflakes on them) and it doesn't show up on my Infuse (just the standard blue border) and when trying to pick icons from the themes it says there are no images. I was hoping there would be a different icon for music and the browser so that my dock would match more.
I'm attaching some of the images of my phone right now for others to get a good look.
And one more thing, where did you get that lockscreen and clock widget?

Thanks so much for the comments! Im glad you like it. The clock widget is called "Digital Clock Widget" in the market. Its usually the first one to pop up when you search it. I dont think I posted a lock screen. But I cant remember since i removed the pics. I actually usually just change the swipe actions in Go Launcher to hide the dock and status bar. But I now have discovered Statusbar+ and its really awesome! Looks like the windows phone status bar. all the icons will hide after a specified amount of seconds, except for the Clock in the upper right. really love it since its really minimalistic. when you tap the status bar the icons all drop in. Loving it.
I now just use the stock lockscreen. Im not sure why your internet icon didnt show up? I actually removed some of the custom icons that were in the last version. That means the facebook icon along with a few others will now use the original icon with the blue square around them. If you like Ill just upload the dock icons so you can change them manually. and maybe ill make a music icon for ya too!
Excellent. Better than some of the $2 themes I've purchased for Go Launcher. It's tough to find good minimalist themes!
Oh in the OP screens, what is the second icon from the left? Phone ? Apps SMS WWW
I thought it was contacts, but I can't get the icon to work for it.

Hm, thanks for the new clock widget, it looks awesome. Though it's kind of lame that we can't use hex color codes or set the date and time to have the same color. Unfortunately something went very wrong with my phone after I installed and messed with this app. Random reboots, apps wouldn't load, extreme amounts of lag, home button stopped working, my extended power menu disappeared, you name it and I had it. Due to this, I was forced to send my phone back to stock. Oh well, I'll just stick with official TW now that we've got GB. Plus, TW is sort of nice now that I haven't used it in 6 months haha. I'll jump back to Go Launcher in a week since the TW icons are HUGE.
ANYWAYS, I am going to rock this theme once I can get my phone settled down and Go Launcher on this. A music icon would be awesome since I like having my music in my dock. And uploading all of the icons into the theme would be nice too since it'd give us options on which icons we'd like to use. And if you don't mind me being nitpicky, would you mind making an icon set of the stock icons but with the blue border? That would just be icing on the cake.

Yup, that's for contacts, I was wondering about this the first time I saw this also.
Yes that was for the contacts. Im really not sure why Go theme factory may be screwing up the apk. Im going to repackage a new one with the icons and without. Ill add the blue square to dock icons too as extras. Ill try to upload a zip with all the icons I make so you could just replace the dock ones with pngs if you want. Maybe thats how ill do the music one too is GTF doesnt package it right. Ill be sure to test it out first.
Also im relaly sorry to hear about the widget probs. Ive always had that widget and it never really gave me any problems. Maybe it was a malware app or something. Not sure about it. But Ill definitely add some more cool stuff to this theme since you guys seem to like it so much.
and heres some examples of another direction i want to go in for a theme...
Both were made in photoshop using mainly layer effects. Im leaning more towards the gray one. But the black one is inspired by my new Logitech k750 keyboard. I love the buttons and want something to come out looking like the theme is made of keys from this keyboard. enjoy.
Updated the apk. enjoy.

Thanks alot! I will be using your theme for a very long time.
You have great taste and should consider monetizing your work IMO.

These icons are really good. Very pleasant too. Do you have a zip of these icons?
Hi, id just like to update you on this theme. Im still loving it but i like a consistent look and feel to my phone so I've decided to use parts of this theme and and the ics theme. I love the way you've made the folders, background, and the app drawer look so I've kept those there. Here's some ss of my phone now. Thanks for making my phone look sick!

That looks absolutely rad! I love it. Mixing and matching works best i think. I found myself doing the same thing! Im really glad to see people getting a kick outta this theme.

[Q] Valhalla (Black) dialer?

Searched, missed it if it's out there.
Does VB use a non-stock dialer? Just curious because none of the themes I've tried change the little phone icon... and the "black phone on black wallpaper" is hard for me to see. Would like the green phone back if possible.
(I realize this is extremely minor, just curious if it's possible, and what I need to do.) Thanks!
Check this out maybe you can use some of the apk's and push it to the system... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500701... follow the op for further instructions..
Cool thanks. There's no way to change the icon in the VB dialer? (I do like it better, other than the icon.)
Look at a different launcher (golauncher, launcher pro) - or the paid version of adw. You can change the icon to whatever you want.

Cool. So I got the paid ADW. Figured out how to change icons, which is COOL.
But I still haven't found a phone icon I like. I extracted the .PNG from the VB dialer, recolored it to dark green, re-saved it as a PNG and... ADW acts like it doesn't exist.
So now I'm trying to figure out if there is some requirement for icons of which I'm unaware. Seeing as all I did was change the phone color from black to green you'd think it'd be okay... :dunno:

If you have Titanium backup make adw system app. Also make sure its moved to the internal memory.

[Q] Is there a way to make everything black instead of white?

I liked how everything was black and dark on previous android versions (settings, call, messaging, etc..) I don't like the whiteness in the lollipop ui as it may consume more battery life than dark ui.
Suggestions?
Bump
This should actually be possible through the Samsung theme store (look at the Space theme for example). Unfortunately I've yet to find a simple dark theme. The theme store is also a bit of a pain to navigate.
Ha! Just had a look at that theme, and one of the screenshots says "CONACTS" instead of "CONTACTS." Way to go, Samsung quality control!

Hey - I think I can help with this. User Gunthermic was kind enough to upload the Cogul Black theme, which was promised, but never arrived in the theme store. See no. 10 in the following for download and install instructions - http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...e-samsung-stock-s6-themes-collection-t3080847
My first thought was to turn the screen off :-/ don't get much blacker than that.
But I too miss the darkness of such things as CM KitKat u.u
