Was playing around with my dash recently , after flashing it to the htc's rom and made a couple changes, so I thought I'd share.
I know alot of people dislike the green theme, but I like it, so figured maybe someone else will too.
I'm using an official htc rom.
Here are a few shots of changed icons and bg's and how it looks:
{
"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_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
As you can see I've edited the xml, I've also compressed some of the fields down so you don't get the scrolling home screen, where everything you need is pretty much contained within one page:
I've also edited the branding brick on top to reflect the regular alphanumeric code (since there is no alphanumeric translation like there is on the tmo rom):
And added on the following backgrounds for misc actions:
To Do: all you have to do is place the files in the same folder structure that appears in the zipped file (using either resco explorer or whatever explorer you use). Then adjust the home screen settings (Settings>Home Screen) accordingly, reboot the phone and you're good. All files are included in the zipped file.
Just always remember to back up your original files.
You made the green look good! Nice work

but you can also restore by default with Diamond TF3D Config il you have install a ".theme" or delete the theme if it's a ".cab"
Thanks for the files but these are not what we (at least "I" am looking for). It is the Manila files that make up the TouchFlo 3D interface. These are not covered by the Windows Mobile Theme.
IN my particular case, it appears that installing Panosha's Communications Manager Tab, the "background" of the tab got turned into a transparent page so that if I now try and bring up the Communications Manager, I simply get an overlay of the buttons on the page used to call it up. And I have tried uninstalling Panosha's utility - to no avail.
Wellowell. I've done a hard-reset. So here is the original 5xx_manila file. (the 4xx_manila doesn't exists)
MfG, Alc
i want someone who can edit and combine two of the attached bootanimation. Basically i want to delete 0078.png till 00109.png from part0 and delete part1 from 1st bootanimation.zip and add 2ndbootanimation.zip to make one. what i want is pc style bootanimation out of two files. i dont have skill to do this. i will appriciate help.
Well, I have the files and am putting it together now. You should give the original post-ers credit for their work on these. All I am doing is merging them.
I don't care if someone modifies what I put work into, but some people do. So for now, when it's done, I'll PM it to you.
thanks man i wait for it. And I will give credit to the orignal posters once its done

Yeah, I'll be jumping all over this request.
Here is something like you asked for. I didn't remove the part1 from the second animation as it needed something to loop.
I used boot animation preview in my signature to do it. It is real easy with that tool.
create the boot animation root directory
copy the "parts" in to the root directory (i did have to resize the "windows" images from 200x200 to 320x480)
select the "camera" from the toolbar
select the animation root directory
select the output directory
done
here is a preview, which boot animation preview also creates.

Thanks man for the help but its giving me black screen. I tried with the bootanimation tools like you said but its not working. It plays fine on PC.

try unzipping and rezipping with no compression, i am not sure if that zip file has compression or not.
Hi.
I've started to theme my sgs with darky v9.5 for my needs.
And now I also wanna mod the app's xml-files.
I read about it in some tutorials and I understand that trying is the best to learn.
But I have 2 starter-questions:
1.) For example I have a concrete modding-wish: The padding on the sides of the contact list seems very annoying to me. (Pointed in pic). I wanna reduce it and downsize the whole list to get faster overview. Somebody already modded this or knows the xml-file to do?

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2.) Modding (esp. system apks) seems to be very time-consuming, because as far as I know the changes can't be viewed directly (with any tool), but the apk have to be pushed to phone and reboot.
Is there a way of faster modding / previewing the changes with the emulator or sth?
Thanks for your help,
Max

I dont know any faster method.
I know something that could help you in situation while you are hammering your head against the wall, I mean -> you just 'cant get the layout right, no matter you try'
Before I begin:
You would need to be familiar with eclipse and creating layouts there.
So..
Create new android project in eclipse
edit layout.xml; paste the contents of the file you are modding...
Workaround all errors that WILL happen
You will see layout rendered in xml file wysiwyg...
Its not easy, but if NOTHING works, it really helps.
This was the thing I did while modding the phone to have big caller picture...
Thanks, if nothing else works, I'll try this

Here's what I have so far for a homescreen. I really want the top center clock to be white, and if it all possible the wifi/signal bars to be white as well. Something simple like MIUI. Also, is there a way to hide the vibration/silent icon from the notification bar? Any dice??

What rom are you on?

what about trying Statusbar+ ?

if you extract and upload the SystemUI.apk from whatever ROM you are using, i can make a few of the edits you are asking for. i will also write out the steps for you if you want to try it yourself or do it again in the future. it's actually pretty simple to modify a lot of these images with 7-zip and a photo editor.
1. open (open, not extract.) the ROM archive with 7-zip. browse to system/app/SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-xhdpi.
2. locate the following files and extract them:
stat_sys_signal_1_fully.png
stat_sys_signal_2_fully.png
stat_sys_signal_3_fully.png
stat_sys_signal_4_fully.png
stat_sys_wifi_1_fully.png
stat_sys_wifi_2_fully.png
stat_sys_wifi_3_fully.png
stat_sys_wifi_4_fully.png
stat_sys_ringer_silent.png
stat_sys_ringer_vibrate.png
3. edit the images so that the bar color is white, and edit the silent/vibrate images so that they are totally transparent (blank).
4. save those images, and drag them back into the drawable-xhdpi folder in 7-zip. say "yes" to the prompts about overwriting files or changing/updating the archive.
5. you can now flash that ROM file as is. 7-zip won't mess up the signatures. or if you don't want to flash the whole ROM over, you can simply extract the SystemUI.apk and do the edits in the apk file directly. then you can push the apk back to your phone.
the clock color in the status bar will need an XML edit or two, which is unfortunately a bit over my head, but this will at least get you most of the way there in your vision for your homescreen.
If anyone could offer some advice I'd be very grateful!
I used Unicon to apply an icon pack across my device, so my home screen currently looks like this:
{
"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_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
My lockscreen on the other hand displays the shortcut icons in grey circles:
What I'd like to do is remove those grey circles such that the shortcuts look like the ones on my home screen. I do have G3 Tweaksbox but it doesn't seem to offer a solution to this.
Thanks!
Open "lgkeyguard.apk" in /system/priv-apps/
via apk-decompile / winrar (extract the res/drawable-xxxhdpi folder)
Search the picture corresponding with the background you want to change.
Copy the recompiled apk back after recopying the picture.
Done.

Great, thanks! Unfortunately I've never dealt with decompiling/recompiling apk's before, so I'll have to approach this stuff carefully. I actually can't find lgkeyguard.apk in /system/priv-app/ using Root Browser though - is it possible that is has a different name / location in Lollipop?
/system/priv-app/LGKeyguard.apk
is the exact path for me (KK 4.4.2)
You could do a search for it using your filebrowser if it isn't there in LP.
Replacing pictures in apk files via Winrar is rather save.
I'd suggest that if you haven't tinkered with apk's b4.
Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it!
