Reserved.......
Screenshots:

more screenshots
Nobody able to create the update.zip for me?
in the meantime...next project is taking the curve out of rosie so it is uniform with the rest of the screens.

Look awsome
Hey man dont know how to sign zip files but keep working on it your doing a great job....Excited to see the finishing touches
Idea: maybe you could pm Drake and see if you could put it in his rom it would look badass

Hey man i would help out if i could with signing or even drawables if you wanted but my pc's power supply was fried about a week ago during a thunder & lightning storm. If im up and running again soon and swing by to help if its still needed.

I'm willing to help. What rom is this for? Any Hero rom?

flat rosie screenshots

Great minds really do think alike . Check the bottom of my post lol
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4320489&postcount=1
Anyway ive spent countless hours going through .xml's trying to find where it would be located. I thought i came close a couple of times but i would only get stuck in a bootloop. Its either located in an .xml somewhere or it can only be changed from the source(which would suck). There arent many of us who have taken on the task of theming the Hero so we may be alone in our efforts. There is also the "remove" and "select" that would have to be taken out possibly from seperate .xmls otherwise it would overlap the image.
Good thing is that if it is an .xml mod, then there is a simple solution. We just have to find the darn .xmls that control it.
If you wanted to try something temporary, you could replace the middle tab with the image you wanted and modify it with borders and shadows etc to give it a sort of flushed look. Like if it sits within the tab. I tried it with a few images and it came out nice. Worth a try. Anyway great work. Looking forward to your finished theme

oh yeah...since u are familiar with xml....i removed the slider above rosie because i didnt know how to take the curve out....is that a xml edit so i can place that back in?

Lol i know what you mean. Im the same way. I would help with the signing but my pc is down atm. I should have a new desktop in a few days so i can help then. My own projects are at a stand still because of my crashed pc. Sucks. If you put the slider back in it will re-appear with the curve. Easiest thing to do is make it transparent. Itll still be there but it wont be visible.

yeah thats how i have it now.....so it doesnt show...but id love for the slider to go straight across...i was hoping it was an xml thing and u had a solution...no worries...cant wait to get this done....
im thinking instead of just making a transparent lockscreen im going to do some stuff there too....
my question is...do i need to make mods to all the programs that use the lockscreen i.e. music,phone,etc.?

1000+ views and still noone to help get this thing zipped up and ready to go?!?!?!

Good to hear! I might come knocking on your door in a few days then
I will happily test this theme when it is ready (or almost) ready.
Sadly I don't think this can be done the right way. I was able to do the same thing with the status bar but it was a placebo effect. You'll be stuck with the same wallpaper. If anyone is willing to prove me wrong I'll be happy for it, as I got lots of ideas I would like to try but stopped due to this hurdle. Good luck in getting this to work.
P.S. the clock looks absolutely awesome.
sure ill take a crack at customizing this theme further.... send me a .zip to [email protected]

Unfortunately you are absolutely correct. I'll just have to go for a sort of a dimmed status bar that'll look transparent but really isn't. Sigh. Why do you torment us like this, Android developers?
The clock does look good, and at least with that one we don't have to fake the transparency effect
I might do a bunch of status bars with different colors; one whiteish, one black, one red, one blue, one brown, etc. That way at least you could get the color of the status bar to decently match any wallpaper you might use. Of course that also means you would have to re-flash the phone every time you changed the wallpaper to something with a different general color.
Hum, I wonder, would it be possible to make a special update.zip containing only the framework apk? I mean, everything else ought to be left intact then, right? An install would be very speedy, just seconds, when all that is needed is an update of the framework. No apps, launcher etc to be reinstalled.
Thoughts?

You certainly can, the first themeing I did was replacing just the clock that way.

Yeah, I've done it with individual apps that way too, but never with the framework apk that is in a different folder than the apps for some reason. I thought it might be different with the framework because of that, but it really should not be. Good to know it's doable though, thanks for confirming!
Pretty cool idea, does this mean it wont show your service? wifi service, battery level etc? I wasn't sure if that was just a mockup you made in photoshop or it will really be that blank
I like the transparent grayscale idea though. looks promising!

Oh, all status bar icons and such will be there once it's done. Though preferably they will be redesigned to fit the glossy theme better than the default ones.
If you can realize this theme like the concept you showed, it will be a most impressive theme. Even the concept is absolutely beautiful.
If we can figure out how to get rid of the black bar at the top when we make transparent status bars this theme would be able to take advatage of it
O.k i have never tried the transparent bar but i think there is two one in drawable an drawable-land the one in drawable-land is black did you try making both of theme clear? Then again there is a lot of stuff thats in the .xml that might be stopping the process. I would ask the .xml doctor to see if thats the case.
I never tried and haven't asked about it. After the announcement of a new update I decided to hold off on any themes
Yeah I know I think ill hold of on Code_Name_Ninja until then.
I've got two on the burner waiting to be moved to update files and ideas for others, it's just so time consuming lol

Wow, awesome news! how about a keyboard that looks like the calculator keys? glasslike with that cool effect when you press a key. I'm excited! Thanks for your time!
Is this limited to the google keyboard or can you guys do the HTC Chinese Input version of the keyboard as well? I just prefer that one because the buttons are bigger but this might be the thing to make me want to switch over.
Working to get the htcime themed, will keep you guys posted, as for the calculator like keys with glass effect will start working on it.
Can you PLEASE make a keyboard that has black keys with red inserts like the ones you have made already.... it would be highly appreciated... thanks

The dialer was something that I was going to look into, i still have to finish some vk's and then i was going to check that out just have to wait til i get home from work, its easier to go through the apks and to make the pngs
Thats hot fire right there.Awesome work guys now I just got to figure out which theme I want when they come out.
hell yeah, when you post i wanna try the black with the blue around the jeys, i was gonna try to work on this when i finished my app. great job guys

yes that would be perfect. Thanks
all white keep it clean hells yeah. maybe like a light gray key and black letters or maybe white surround black keys and white letters. i have a thing for black and white for some reason
Well we have to look into it a little more, because the text is a xml fix and we have to find where it is etc. and go from there so changing the text might take a little longer
Okay so here are some of the first ones that i got done its just basic colors with black background. You have to unzip it, take the framework-res.apk out and then have a copy of the your last update, open that and then go to /system/framework and drag the new framework-res.apk over to it and drop it, flash the update again, and good to go. Now this is for haykruo's 1.5 i have no clue if it works on any others, if you are on other builds can you let us know if works or not.
edit** sorry no screenshots i dont have that app anymore and dont have the time right now to do them
Great work man! I'm impressed.

My sister and roomate's wife extend their thanks. Its hard finding good themes for girls.
im fixin to release an update i found a problem with that one
its very nice...dont get me wrong...but my sister tells me that she is looking for something elegant...whimsical if you will...something that can remind her of those "green" toyota prius commercials if you know what im saying...modern maybe?
but this is nice too...it will def have an audience
My sister would love this. Hopefully we can get the updated version
Fixed- Link has been put back up
funny how men usually assume that if it's pink or hello kitty women will like it (or that men won't). With that said, looks good, but are the screenshots anything to go by? because the pink looks kind of smeared, and I'm hoping it's just a compression artifact. I'll try this and see

Was not an assumption. This was to fulfill a woman's request.
And those are artifacts theme much better on phone.
yeah, i just saw that. I did notice one thing though, you seem to be missing a boot screen, all I get is a white screen at boot (i applied with no wipe on top of cm397)
take this as constructive criticism as that's the way i intend it. The pink coloring is fine, but it feels like you over-did it. Not everything has to be shaded pink, then it looks like you drowned your phone in cool-aid. It's nice to have the original look with some accents (like, coming from tehseano's theme, change only the buttons, progress bars, and only the green accented parts to pink)
Last, a problem i mentioned to tehseano but he never corrected. The app tray open/close arrow comes slightly off (1 pixel) when morphing from the open to the close one and viceversa. To fix it, just knock i pixel off the top from the down arrow and one pixel off the bottom of the up arrow (or the other way around, i dont remember))
Thanks for the heads up and ideas. I am going to post a boot image update. But a full update will be later. I will pass along the arrow info.
Boot screen fix.
http://www.4shared.com/file/123214722/96eea374/heroine_bootscreen_patch.html
fix for bootscreen.
@jubeh: Idea for you. If you only want a little pink, download and install Dark_Hero and then apply this patch!
See what you think. (pink)
Thank you
I love it and appreciated! thanks for you work!

Attention all fellow themers: Need help editing 2.2 rosie bar!

Ok, I've searched far and wide, and I have no idea how to get the word "Phone" off of the 2.2 Rosie bar.
If anoyne is confused as to what I'm talking about here:

It's the word "Phone" at the bottom... anyone who can edit the xml or can tell me where to start, the help would be appreciated, as this is the LAST thing I need to do to release my theme.
I'm including the defualt sense 2.2 rosie bar, which I used to build from, in case maybe there's someone coming from another UI that may know.
thank you all for any help in advance.
I'm guessing its a XML edit... not sure where though...
In rosie where you put your "k" there are 4 other files which appear blank...one of them is.phone...also make sure the files in the hdmi port folder of resource apk are edited as such

I have no idea of where you're talking about. In 2.2, the K goes in Rpsie/res/drawable-hdpi
In that folder, I don't see anything about a File named phone, or see anyt blank files.
COuld you be more specific?

yes the phone icons that are in your rosie should be replaced by your k...the word phone is just an overlay

Ok... stop talking about the phone icons, lol. They're a non factor... I replaced them with the K bc I didn't want them there.
I simply just want that overlay (The word Phone) removed.
And thank you for your responses Juggs. People here definitely are awesome about trying to help.

Right and he does NOT want the "Phone" text to be there. He wants to remove the text that says "Phone" from the bottom bar and replace with his own image. The problem is that in 2.1 it was an editable image and it seems that in 2.2 it has been moved to an XML or somewhere else, which is what we're trying to figure out here.
ok the base of your theme was something koni and i worked on a few weeks back and he released it as enamorous red...i released as part of my rom...his release of the theme did not include the fix for the "phone" we had to go back to a previous theme to fix it as done in my rom...for ****s n gigs add these two images to your rosie and tell me if the word phone is gone when you flash...
Stumbled across this thread, so said, what the hell, might as well help you out .
Untested, but should do the trick.
Ok guys just saw these. Literally ahve three people's fixes to try, which is awesome, so I'm going to start with uggs' (who was dead on when he mentioned I used Koni's as a base in my 2.1 build). Let's see if one works!
Attempt 1 (Juggs) - FC on launch.
Next attempt - An outside source is telling me to edit the resources.arsc or whatever.

Ummm, the Rosie.apk I've attached for you contains the necessary edit to resources.arsc to remove the Phone text. You can ignore it if you wish, I suppose.

Yea sorry I didn't respond earlier, but I've been busy working on it, since urs actually worked. I actually decided to try yours second, and that's why I asked jabba to respond for me because I've been working on getting this right ow that the phone word is removed.
Thank you very, VERY much.
and, actually juggs' img helps too, because there needs to be a more wide image to make the icon push to the center.
So thank BOTH of you for ur help!
I want to remove the word phone from my Rosie too, can you tell me what edits you made?
If you were to decompile Rosie.apk, you would find various strings are defined in the '/res/values' folder (via apktool), including the string for the 'Phone' text.
You "could" edit there and recompile, which gives you more flexibility, however, knowing that these values, when the apk file gets built, are compiled into the resources.arsc file, it is much quicker and easier to just hex edit the file directly.
So, after opening resources.arsc in a hex editor, we can search for 'Phone' in its hex value equivalent (with each letter separated by a null char (00)), which becomes:
500068006f006e006500
Searching this out, we find a couple of instances, but it is obvious, once looking, which is the correct one for the 'Phone' text in the Rosie launcher.
When hex editing, you can't remove or add content, since if we do, it will corrupt the file. We can only change. With that in mind, you can simply replace all of the characters with a blank space, hex equivalent of 20, becoming:
20002000200020002000
And there you have it. With this change, 'Phone' has been nulled out in favor of blank spaces that you can then insert a graphic of in its place. This does not remove the spacing that the text once took up, so if you are not removing the stock 'Phone' icon to the left of the text, a different approach is needed, as the icon will remain positioned to the left.

% Battery, Blue Icons, No Carrier

*Note: this is for the Nitro from AT&T and apparently is not compatible with other versions of the p930*
*I made this before any of these new roms came out and as such it was meant for and has been tested on only the stock Gingerbread rom that comes with the phone. I doubt it will be compatible with the new roms.*
SEE Blue Icons and removed carrier logo! for instructions. Installing this SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk works exactly the same way as in that thread!
*SAME DISCLAIMER*
I AM NOT A DEV! I just like tinkering with how things look because I'm extremely picky. I am not smart enough to figure out how to save someone's phone if it gets bricked, I'm just sharing what I've played with since I want this forum to grow =). So everything I say, you are welcome to try, but keep in mind that it can always hit the fan, especially right now, while we still don't have a recovery mode yet. And since I lack the omniscience of the all-seeing all-knowing devs, I cannot be held responsible for what happens to your phone, if something undesirable (*ahem*, bricking) should happen! That said, everything I've done here I've done multiple times and tested, and it seems to work just fine in my hands so long as instructions are followed precisely. But regardless, try at your own risk! Until we have a nice recovery mode set up, you have to be willing to live on the wild side to mess with this phone, which apparently, a lot of us are...
This is a modification of my previous thread "Blue Icons and removed carrier logo!" Thanks to [email protected], I incorporated the individual percent onto the battery icon I previously used in this set. I didn't end up actually using the framework he posted since I wanted to include my other modifications, but since he was brave enough to try UOT kitchen modifications on his phone and it worked, I decided it'd be safe to use UOT to modify my own framework-res.apk to add the proper xml's for 100% battery (I tried doing it manually... possible, but oh my god, oh so painful). I then changed all the pngs for each battery to ones that I made (individually =P) from splicing the blue version of the stock icon battery with the percent value.

"lightbox_close": "Close",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So attached are the SystemUI.apk and the Framework-res.apk for installing the blue icons with no carrier and now, with % on the battery. It will look like this on your phone:
***If you've already installed the blue icons with no carrier from my other thread, then to add the % battery, you ONLY NEED TO INSTALL THE FRAMEWORK-RES.APK. The SystemUI.apk is identical to the one used for "blue icons - no carrier". If you're starting from a stock phone, then install both.***
Instructions are the same as my previous thread.
**If someone wants a framework-res.apk that changes NOTHING in the phone, adding ONLY % to the stock green battery icon, let me know. I don't mind doing the work, but only if someone actually wants it =)**
Thanks again to [email protected] for showing me that the UOT % works for this phone and letting me tinker with his apks! =)
Just to add, this works just fine with the blue icons with carrier SystemUI.apk as well.
Thanks again for your hard work on this!

Great! Glad it worked well for you! =) Thanks!
Call me greedy, but when clock set to 24H, on either side of it is so much wasted space.
Here is my attempt remove that extra space which allow more icons on the status bar:

Vano, can you kinda give a quick walkthrough as how to accomplish it? I dont wanna brick my phone from doing the wrong things.
also, to both u and itiskonrad, is it just me, or the phone kinda takes a bit longer to boot up ever since I replaced systemui.apk? I feel it takes a few seconds longer than wat it used to be. Not a problem at all, just wondering if it was just me.
Just use instructions from this post: Blue Icons and removed carrier logo!
And use my SystemUI.apk file instead.
My phone takes about 30 seconds after screen goes black and before animations shows up, then another 30 seconds goes through the animation. I do think it was booting much quicker the first time I started it, but since then I've installed bunch new apps.
I can't say I notice a difference. Mine was quick to boot when it was still pretty bare, but I didn't change the SystemUI.apk until after I'd put all my programs and everything onto it, which already slowed down startup. Maybe there is a difference and I just don't notice it...? Not sure
Cool beans Guys! Thank you.
Just did this to my phone the other day, its awesome! This is perfect for me since all i look for in a ROM is stock look with speed and a battery percentage mod.
Great! Glad you like! Let me know if there are other random mods you'd like. There's something addictive about fiddling with xmls =) I've also been removing the carrier from the lock screen, getting rid of buttons that bother me... I think I have too much free time
@itiskonrad:
Do you still copy modified .xml files after they were compiled into "original" .apk?
I could use my compiled version before I tried deoxed process, since then (even though nothing has been changed on the phone) it bricks my phone every times I recompile original SystemUI.apk, even if I don't change anything, just decompile and compile.
Can't figure out what's wrong...
Yeah, pretty much.
Long story short, I never use recompiled SystemUI.apk or framework-res.apk in the phone. I don't trust them to not brick my phone, and I don't want to have to go through the effort of unbricking it. I always decompile original apks, change the XMLs I want, recompile the apk JUST TO RE-ENCODE THE XML, not to use the actual whole apk, and drag and drop the modifications (any changed XMLs or swapped PNGs I want to keep) back into the original apk that was never decompiled to begin with, just to be safe =) This way, I've never had a bricking issue
I did this to my phone today with ZERO issues. Thanks! It's perfect! Exactly what I wanted when I bought this phone. I'm a total noob at this stuff, but if you know how to navigate a computer and have basic copy/pase/move skills, this isn't hard at all.
EXCELLENT write up OP!

I'm interested..!
After the change SystemUI.apk & Framework-res.apk, I noticed a small problem in ringtones setting - ringtones list has duplicate. I mean that is all the audio files in the phone (system/media/audio/) are also displayed in notification ringtones and phone ringtones (now notification ringtones and phone ringtones has the same audio files). Is there swapping the SystemUI.apk & Framework-res.apk could affect this?

Haha, okay, I'll get right on it. You know this will wipe the changes you did to your lock screen, right? You'll just have to re-swap the lock pattern png's and xml's and stuff again, to get the minimalist lock screen back, that's all. If you REALLY want, I can make one just for you with those changes included, I guess =P

This is exactly what I've been looking for. Is there not something in the marketplace?
There are apps that can add an additional battery icon with percentage, but replacing the stock one with percent is unfortunately not so easy. I'm almost done with it, I got distracted with stupid work =) I'll post it here later today- stock everything, even battery, just with an added percent value on the stock battery icon.
