Hello,
I have used Xperia X10 and finally got tired of it and bought Galaxy S. Now the problem is that I use Handcent SMS app and on Xperia Ive had those nice yellow smileys and now on Galaxy I have those ugly green ones. I tought that those smileys are part of the Handcent app but obviusly I was wrong. Can I change them somehow to those yellow smileys since green ones are almost making me sick.
Tnx
90 views and no one can tell why Xperia X10 has beautiful yellow smileys and we have ugly droid green ones ?
The smilies are build into the framework-res.apk.
Sony has changed the default Android Smilies to the yellow smilies you got on your xperia.
Samsung hasn't changed the smilies.
Ok, tnx. Is there a way to change those to yellow ones ? Maybe with rooted phone and port that framework-res.apk from X10 ?
I'd also quite like change, or even get rid of, the smileys... They look stupid imo.

They look cool when they are SE yellow, but they look ugly when they are green droid poop like smileys...
But does it really matter tho? I think its clientside, aka, you are the only one seeing them, the one reciever will see whatever he/she has on his/her phone.
You dont like the android smilies!?
Of course I dont, they are fugly ! Look at those from Xperia:

And here are Android default ones:

I think that those from Xperia are way nicer, well, look under this box, this forum has those like on Xperia )))
I know that I see them, thats the point
The X10's is not Android-ish.. nyahaha.. they just look like common smileys..
But I'm also interested in changing the smileys, hope it will be possible just like changing the fonts.
Yea but those common smileys look 10x better than those green s***s that we have now
Do you have a rooted phone?
I could make a metamorph to do it for our phones if someone links me to a framework-res.apk for x10
Don't do it!!! How can you not like the shade sporting droid smiley or the bling mouth one?.....jk to each his/her own, Changing them would be quite simple though if you pull the ones you like and replace them on in your framework.
If you upload your framework-res.apk, I will put the yellow smiley's in for you tomorrow and package in an zip you can flash through cwm.

this is a work in progress, trying to find and make some different icons...

Hehe very nice. Are the dialer buttons supposed to be materia?
If you can customize the "force close" message, have it say "Sephiroth has to kill Aerith."
this is on my phone cant wait for icons
Sorry if I'm being spamy. I would like to make few sujestions. I would like to the line on the wall papers gone... idk it just bugs me and also the batteery icon should be the color og green material it blends in a bit to much. Oh maybe put a hint of red from the summoning material. But even if u don't make these changes I still love ur theme
i will make a few changes, no problem
ff10
make a final fantacy 10 model lol that will be even better lol
Please insert in your title what rom version this theme is for!??!
It doesn't work on JFv1.42, freeze on T-Mobile G1 Screen, that's my experience.
It works on jf. Rc33 lite. I'm runing it right now promise. Also if the dev reads reds this battery color is slighty off center.
it works on lite or regualar, if u removed the stock tones and notifications....i know the color is slightly off, only my second theme, so i am slowing down now and taking my time making them, i was over excited finally being able to make them....
I was just given u a feed little back. If this is only your second theme than I can't wait for your third. U are very good at this. This is an art and one in my opion you are very good at. Sorry if it came off like I was putting down your work. Take all the time you need to make this theme even better than it allready is.
no apologies i didnt take ur comment like that, thanks for thecompliment, i am working on a hulk theme, i actually have it done but i have to replace some things, i liked gloss suites apps bar, so i used it, but i am going to make a different one and , see what people think...
i wish you would come with some icons for this theme... but oh well its still cool
icons are coming, got wrapped up in making other ones...i will update in a few days....
I remember long ago a couple of themes coming out with colored notifications (ex. Green txt msg icon, red gmail envelope, etc).....was wondering if anybody knew of a theme that had them or maybe a metamorph somewhere.....really wanna get em on my g1. Thanks

You can download Ninjamorph from market and do these sorts of things yourself by changing the stat_notify icon in drawable mdpi folder. The reason I'm telling you this is your always going to like the icon here or there or this piece of that theme I was the same way nobody is going to assemble it the way you like not perfect anyway so best thing is mix and match apps from different Metamorphs then Ninja what you couldn't find to your taste. If all this is too intimidating PM and I'll give you the one's I have.
Yea that's what I've been doing as far as mix n match metamorphs but couldn't find the colored notifications. Will try ninjamorph though, appreciate it.

Hi guys. I was wondering if someone could answer this for me . The appearance of my Gmail app inbox has gone dark grey background with white txt and new mail comes in with a black background with white txt.
This is quite annoying as i don't remember changing any settings and i am finding it a bit off putting.
I can't for the life of me find how to change it back to the white background.
Can anybody point it out to me pls??
Sent from another GALAXY
a dark-themed gmail app? I'd kill to have that...
Dunno how it happened. It was white till yesterday. I have the latest version installed but the icon is even slightly different to my friends ones. I've got a closed envelope with 'M 'Im the middle whereas my friends have a 'M ' popping up out of the envelope. Strange. . . .

are you sure it's the real gmail app? check the about section.
could you attach the apk?
Have you played with any THEMES for your phone? Usually, some themes are coming with few themed applications ...
The themed applications are getting installed at once with the phone theme, w/o any warning or info.
If you did install a phone theme, look inside the zip file (the theme itself) under system/app ... if you see a gmail.apk there, then you just found out how you've ended with a black gmail app.
P.S.: I'm also interested in getting your themed gmail. apk file

I've tried a few different themes the last few days to honest . Have them all on my sd card. Just checked and the only one with a Gmail.apk is gingermix. Maybe this is where it came from .
I've changed since though and wiped cache and dalvik first??
If you guys explain how i can attach the Gmail.apk then no prob. Can i do it on my SGS?
Sent from another GALAXY
I've ran some tests based on your input and YES, the gingermix theme is the culprit here ...
Please find attached the gingermix themed gmail apk and also the stock gmail. Both packages are installable via CWM.
I personally like more the gingermix themed one ... thanks for bringing this issue up
Its funny actually. Now that I've copped it i see bits of various themes all over my phone. . Lol.
I have generation x blue theme installed right now but also see these :
Gmail.apk from gingermix v4
Dialer, phone.apk and message icon from jumba 2.5
He he he he

@ro_explorer. . Thanks for that.
A little off topic but if i was to revert back to stock theme can i flash a notification bar from one theme and a separate battery,icon set from another??

I've uploaded again the zips with the gmail.apk only .. it was something wrong with the update scripts earlier (I've edited the scripts with wordpad so it got screwed up).
If you like to play with the themes, you will have to use a deodexed rom in the forst place, then you can play with various png files inside the framework-res.apk file under /system/framework dorectory (this is quite dangerous if you're not really sure what you are doing IMO).
Personally I'm using the Generation X V2.0B with some elements from generationX V1.14 (wifi icons to be more exact), some personal touch-ups in the buttons for the AOSP unlock screen and puzzle unlock, modified taskbar ... and some various themed applications that are going really well with this theme
If anyone is interested I can share it. I'm not taking credit for anything .. these are just things found here, on this very forum
I would like that alright. Is that the standard looking wifi icon as opposed to the battle axe looking one in v2?
Im using gen x v2 hard blue but finding some txt hard to read Im the menus.

I've just turned off my computer. I'll upload the files tomorrow morning.
The wifi icon is the one used in v1.14 (the axe looking one).

Cool. That looks great man. Much prefer that wifi icon to the newer one. I was gonna have a go off customising a theme for myself this weekend but I might hold off and enjoy yours now for a while. ;-)
Thanks
PS...I'm actually starting to like the themed gmail app!!

I have an idea for the powers to be here that make themes...
A black theme, with colored icons (like cm7 colorized), transparent apps like fb, gmail as addons. Preloaded with the nokia fontpack (i posted it a while back search down a bit its there), a variation of grays and darkness, transparent pulldown taskbar, a slighly less colorful version of symbian icons (adw has a symbian theme for its launcher).
Basically a hybrid version of an all black/gray theme with some mild colorization such as in the settings menus etc. What about when you select a menu item it flashes like a pulse real quick when selected? For those that like other fonts the theme should not have preset fonts that are not flashable (meaning if its in arial and i flash the nokia font everything should show up in the nokia font and i shouldnt see arial anywhere)
I know im asking a lot, but im thinking community wide here throwing ideas out to the geniuses here that do have the talent to make such a theme, as i am a tard when it comes to cooking this stuff up.
Not to knock the themes that are here because just because i dont like them does not mean they suck. I totally respect the theme makers for their quality of work, but to me the only one i have liked so far is the matted blues one and the cm7 colorized to a degree. I like the black ones but they are too boring and need some life in them. (Again, my opinion not knocking it) and the monotone black/single color i feel the same way as well.
Anyways, if anyone wants to add to my ideas that flow along with it nicely please feel free.

You could prob make this yourself... go to the main android theme threads and look for the ultimate online theme engine.. gives you a great amount of options.. could use to change noticiation bar on top of a theme you use an a base.. then use theme injector to change over other pngs from other themes you like..

Hey everyone. I know that you all have way to much on your hands already but I just wanted to throw something out there.
I am looking for a theme that is not very far from stock, actually it would be exactly like stock except instead of green colors everywhere, you would have a different color like blue. I would REALLY love one where the green was changed to purple or a purple/pink color but I would probably be the only one to use it so blue is ok.
Would this be a hard theme to make since not much is changing but the green color? I wish I knew how to do it. I am using the EK02 UnNamed ROM also and there aren't many theme options so maybe this could be one of the firsts.
You can try the ICS theme we have, some people have gotten it to work on UnNamed, some havent.
It's not that it's hard to change it all to pink, it is just very time consuming to change every single piece to pink. It could be something simple like just the battery & network Icons but going all out and changing the overscroll glow, dialer, and the framework etc. is a ton of work. Most of it requires working with .9 files which can't just be edited like a normal .png.
i think a red one would be awesome. blood blood blood.
i can imagine changing everything would be tedious. tracking things down in every menu, etc etc.
requires more patience than i probably have.

I made (edited) a theme chooser theme once for my motorola cliq on cyanogen and it was very time consuming and I had to work with a png9 editor and it did kinda suck...
If I could find a theme out there that was very close to stock....I would have no issues editing the icons myself and then sending it back to the owner for resigning or whatever needed to be done. I just can't find a theme that is close to stock LOL.

You would just download a stock rom and extract the images.
