[24APRIL2011][Mod] Themes + Notifications Icon Mod + Settings w/ black background

If this framework eats your cat, i'm not responsible.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12340498&postcount=109
so i saw this post and decided that i want those icons. so i pulled my framework-res.apk from the current ROM i am using (overcome 1.4.4) and modded the files inside.
THOSE ICONS WERE NOT CREATED BY ME. CREDIT GOES TO ORIGNIAL CREATOR (dunno who, i tried to find but couldn't find it)
attached are NON-flashable zips from various ROMS that are available.
More info:
-the widget below the time is minimalist text.
-wallpaper is from this app called wallpapercasa free from the market which i highly recommend. this app has high res wallpapers made specially for tablets.
-"S" icon u see is samba filesharing free from the market as well. best wifi file transfer app IMHO from tab to computer or vice versa.
-from left to right, the icons are: bluetooth, wifi, silent mode, signal strength, battery(%) and alarm.
Credits:
Original creator of those icons.
Natious for his flashable zip.
alterbridge86 for his wonderful ROM.
Galaxyer for VA Green theme and black settings.
DistortedWisdom for blue honeycomb theme.
Biospin for black call settings page.
Update (13/4):
-added framework for BOYPPC-V3 rom. thanks to wallah.
-added framework for Overcome 1.5.0-Beta. thanks to mkhattab.
-made into cwm flashable zips
-made some changes to the framework as i realized that when i charge my tab, the animation is screwed up. this update should fix the problem.
Update (14/4):
-changed to non-flashable zips as there's some problem with the flashable zip.
Update (18/4):
-added ZHKC2.2.1
-will consider sourcing for more battery mods from other forums and add it here after my exams.
Update (19/4):
-added Overcome1.6.0
Update (21/4):
- added links for Blue Honeycomb theme by DistortedWisdom and VA Green theme by galaxyer and modded to work on Overcome 1.6.x by DistortedWisdom.
Update (23/4):
- added Settings.apk with black background [tested only on Overcome 1.6.1] preview: http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/1754/26105842.jpg
LATEST Update (24/4):
- added Blacksettings.rar - this is not a flashable. extract the apks and place them in /system/app for a black settings page. Currently only the account profiles page are not black. trying to fix it.
- Removed framework-res(Overcome1.5.0Beta) due to not so popular demand and lack of slots for uploading files.
Instructions for installing notification icons ONLY (without theme):
1. extract zip file.
2. copy the framework-res.apk in the zip file into your sd card using root explorer.
3. navigate to /system/framework
4. tap rw at the top.
5. paste the copied framework-res.apk and u will experience FCs and this is normal. DO NOT PANIC.
6. restart tab.
Instructions for Settings with black background:
1. download Blacksettings.zip and extract the apks inside to your sd card
2. copy or move all the apk using root explorer
3. navigate to system/app
4. tap on r/w at the top
5. [optional] backup your Phone.apk/Settings.apk/Accountsandsyncsettings.apk somewhere just in case it doesn't work for your rom. this has only been tested on Overcome 1.6.1
6. paste all apks
Instructions for installing themes ONLY (w/o icons mods):
1. place zip in internal or external sd card
2. boot into recovery
3. install zip
Link to download theme:

The themes and battery icon mods are 2 different framework-res.apk.
They are works of 2 different people and i will only combine them and post it here when i am free or when >10 people request for it. the screenshots you see are the result of combining them. i do not want to combine them because the original framework might change again when alterbridge releases an update for Overcome ROM and I do not know how to mod it to work on the new framework if that happens. the themes are done by DistortedWisdom and Galaxyer. i will request from them if ever there is an update and post it here. meanwhile i'm still trying to how to theme properly. if i know how i won't bother them again. thanks
hit some thanks if i've helped.

Wow so beautiful mal, i love that !! Its posible to put on onether rom pls ?

i realized that when i charge my tab the animation is screwed up. please check yours. if it's screwed up too, download the flashable zip which i just uploaded. it should fix the problem.

no problem here bro, everythings works nice !!! i tested charging, pluged in-pluged off, mount-unmont.....

Do you think you can make one for Overcome 1.5 Beta?
I believe it has a different base from 1.4.4 so the same framework will probably FC like mad

This is not sample.. Create backup in sdcard with theme installed structure.. example: /sdcard/theme-installer/backup/"$THEME_NAME"_"$THEME_VERSION"_"$THEME_FIRMWARE"
Simple with root explorer replace this files with system files and wow! revert ok

Interesting piece of software. Good work and thank you very much. I will try this.

superb app but manually replacing files is really bad idea. I think installing & removing themes with help of ur app will be a superb idea.

I can create backup and not replaced if found, but the sistem can't check if the files is original or not..

Universal theme need less space on my zip because use only one version for more firmwares, according from gingerbread and froyo system...
P.S. Today restart this project, for a moment stop ICS Froyo porting.. need more time and testers. Sorry for delay..

Yes I need
Now I have upgraded my project to external themes.. the primary problem is archive size.. more themes, more size.. when update one theme need to reupload all my app.. it's no good choice
Now the app working with sdcard directory and you need to copy inside. When run my app read this directory and can add the themes inside into installer. It's simple for users but not simple for me XD
I'm working on this feature and when found solution I'm happy
Sorry for this long time, but all know me.. I want create a very good product
Waiting news in the next week

[Q] Will Themes from the International One X work for us?

Shouldn't the themes for the International One X work for us as well? Especially since there's a new way of theming that just replaces the graphical stuff and not the actual apk. They say it should work on most devices with same sense versions. We have the same sense version, same resolution same buttons etc. I've tried a few but the developers have a model check and they abort. The one that i found over there that did not do a model check worked fine. Could someone with experience with themes chime in please? thanks!
EDIT. I'm only talking about themes With the villain theming system. It does not replace the apks, only mods them.

VillainTheme System 0.4.0
As a user, you don't need to know much - just flash this zip like a regular zip, and you'll get your theme running. But you should be able to apply themes to any device, ROM, and version of the ROM, without it causing adverse effects. That means less time spent by themers making the original theme, and less time spent modifying it constantly for new versions of ROMs.
Features..
Will modify APKs in a ROM, without changing signatures, and can be used on any ROM where the filenames of themed files is the same.
Should not need updated between versions of a ROM
Zipaligns all APKs before installation
Stores a backup of all files being modified in /cache/vrtheme-backup/
Requires no coding abilities or editing of files - just drag and drop
Can copy "raw" files, though at risk of not working on other devices

What "new theming method" are you talking about?
The only type of themeing I've seen is replacing system files, like SystemUI.apk and stuff.
It that's the case, then no it won't work.

I changed text to red that i thought pertained to this subject
I installed this theme without issues. Was made using villain theme system for the International one X
Quote from changelog of this theme
UPDATE 21 May: After a lot of tweaking and tinkering, have managed to make the theme work with the VillainTheme system. This means that it should now work with any ROM, and shouldn't affect any of the ROM dev's individual tweaks.
The theme modifies the following system apks:
framework-res.apk
SystemUI.apk
com.htc.resources.apk
fusion.apk

Sense 4 is sense 4 as far as I know. I'm sure you can remove the model check form the update script. link one you'd like to install and I'll check it out

That's definitely not a good idea. Most Sense themes contain the SystemUI.apk, framework-res.apk and com.htc.resources.apk. So if the rom your using on your AT&T One X has any mods done to any of those apk's you will loose them and if the rom that the theme was built for has any mods done to those apk's you will more than likely have issues. If there is a specific theme you like, get me the link and I will try to port it over.

No you're right, not a noob. Tiff didn't realize I was talking about the villain theming system.. This system only replaces graphics, not the entire apk. Unfortunately she said she wasn't familiar ( hasn't used it) so that reply is a little misleading. I'll get you that theme I was talking about to try and change the model.

Ok I've found the model check lines in the aroma installer but I have no idea how to disable them.
It LOOKS like if you unzip the theme you can push the vrtheme folder to your sd card on your phone and then run the installtheme.sh from adb shell.

Wouldn't it be a little hard to install a theme while the rom is running? Just thinking it would be A mess changing graphics while active. Unless I misunderstood yooz.
Maybe I could swap the vrtheme folder in the theme that does work, doesn't check the model. That cream theme I posted earlier..mwhat a horrible name lol

-new microsoft office apps (they are removable)
-replaced old here and mixradio with Google Play Store's
-cortana beta
-transparent homescreen app icons
-all apps icon colors changeable
-modified settings menu
-modified systemui and res-framework
-all default widgets are transparent
-replaced pink icons with purples
...

If your referring to V4A instead of a different addon by the Viper Rom community then just d/l either of the OGD Deodexed Roms we have and V4A works perfect and if you have a car with a system hold onto your windows, it sounds pretty sweet! Like wake the neighborhood with a factory Ford Shaker 1000 system have my phone hooked up with a aux cable running V4A with the Super Driver and Advanced Controls tuned. It will get you in trouble if you go by a cop and the town has noise ordinance.

Here you go, an empty zip ready for you to add your edited apk's. Just edit the updater-script to whatever you want it to say. Tested so far with apps, priv-apps and framework. Enjoy
Note: if you have already converted the apk's images to png's, please share as it will save all of us a lot of time.

Note: if you have already converted the apk's images to png's, please share as it will save all of us a lot of time.

Has been a few years. I quit making roms and themes about two years ago. Well roms first, then the themes. When Samsung came out with the QMG images, that was it. I had enough of jumping thru loops to make a theme for the Note 4. Love the phone, hated the OS for the phone.
So bud, are you do any theming for the Note 5. Maybe you can give me a hand. I am a little confused on what can and can not be done. The reason I was able to do a basic theme was the framework-res and systemui was already converted. I read the previous app used to convert the images to png's doesn't work for this phone. So let me know if you know how to convert the qmg's to png's, or anyone here that can help.

Yeah ... I haven't been too involved myself. Some a few tweaks on the S4. I have been planning to develop some custom boot images (my specialty ... haha). Really just looking at cleaning things up first. I know rlmiller and tdunham are both pretty involved with this device. They might be able to provide some insight.
Anyway ... good to see a familiar face.

No problem I tried yesterday on the settings apk and had no problem with any png's. So the conversion still works for the Note 5. That's what I get for reading one post and taking that as fact. I use VTS for decompiling and reconpiling and had no problems with the framework-res, systemui and the systems apk's. But when I try to recompile a couple of other's. Like the Samsung keyboard even without changes they give a Java error. I have updated both apktooland smali files to the latest. But that didn't help, still get the same error. I applied for Samsung Theme it twice and was declined both times. Something about I didn't provide enough information about the themes I have already done. Not sure what they are looking for. I provided linked images to some 20 themes and roms I have done.... Maybe that's it, they don't people who know how to hack their phone.

In the search field, type picconv. Should be the 1st link. Beware V2.1 converts the 9.qmg to regular .PNG images. If u want to edit .9. images u will need to add the black lines. Hopefully the developer will get this fixed soon.
As far as Samsung goes, I think if u provide proof of themes u have make. And the link is a post on XDA u are blacklisted. Samsung straight out told me in a phone conversation that they do not want us rooting our phones. Yeah, they want to control the themes available and make money doing it.
