Does anyone have the stock Android News and Weather widget apk ? Not the HTC Sense version. Looking for a semi-transparent with dark grey background, sort of see through. Not 100% clear transparent, but not the stock totally black ground either.
Anything out there ? Thanks
You may have to pull it from an ASOP rom zip (probably from the system/app/ folder within the zip). I have a SalvageMod rom zip on my SD card, but it's not in there. My other AOSP rom zips are on my MacBook and I'm not using it at the moment.

** Updated to v1.1 **
I've put together a basic Metamorph theme to add blue to the standard Android look. It should work with all current versions of CM5.0.7-DS as it does not touch critical framework files such as services.jar.
I have also themed the ADW.Launcher to match Cyano-Blue which can be downloaded and flashed through recovery.
Some changes:
- status bar
- status bar icons
- most original orange highlights changed to blue
- spinners
- battery monitor
- notification background
Cyano-Blue v1.1 for stock CM5-DS (install using Metamorph):
sd_Cyano-Blue-v1.1-CM5-DS_stock.zip
Cyano-Blue themed ADW.Launcher for CM5-DS (flash through recovery):
sd_Cyano-Blue_v1.1-ADW.L.0.7rc1.zip
Instructions:
1) Nandroid Backup
2) Install Metamorph theme file on stock CM5-DS
3) Flash themed ADW.Launcher through recovery *optional*
The first 3 screenshots show Cyano-Blue v1.1 on stock CM5-DS. The last 3 screenshots show CM5-DS running with themed ADW.Launcher
Thanks,
Wondering if this theme is generic and also working on the vanillaeclair ROM and ADW launcher?
Like your modifications.
I've built this around CM5-DS. I'm not sure if it'll work on vanillaeclair. It should if the framework for it and CM5-DS are the same. If the framework for vanillaeclair is similar to Donut ROMs then it won't work.
Is there any way you could remover the notification bar background? I love the rest of it but the background is a little too much=p
Or just tell me what files to change in the framework-res.apk...
In framework status_bar_header_background.9.png is for the background where the carrier is listed in notification area. status_bar_background.png is for the empy space in notification and statusbar_background.9.png is the top status bar.
its working finally
but i prefer stock notification bar... :>
nothing - please delete this post, i'm an Idiot
I should be releasing a v1.1 soon. Just waiting to see what @anderwebs is doing with his ADW.Launcher. I'm thinking of making a metamorph version for stock CM5-DS with a themed ADW.Launcher flashable through recovery rather than two different metamorphs.
Here's a few screen caps.
thats great idea!
im waiting
but could U make a version, with stock notification bar ? :>
Cyano-Blue now updated to v1.1.
Some people have requested the stock top status bar. Here is a metamorph file to restore only that after installing Cyano-Blue theme.
stock_CM5-DS_statusbar.zip
how apply this one ? via MM ?
cuz in recovery is verification failed... (no signature).
EDIT:
in MM app cant apply framework-res, which takes forever... -,-'
could U make this theme to apply via recovery, like last one ?
The theme file for the stock CM5-DS is a metamorph file and cannot be flashed through recovery. The reason I use metamorph is because it can be installed on any version of CM5-DS. If I build a recovery flashable version then I have to build one for each new version of CM5-DS and that's a lot of work since there has been a lot of test versions lately.
It can take a while to install framework-res through metamorph as it's replacing almost 400 files. I have done a lot of testing with metamorph and CM5-DS-test7 on my Dream without problems.
If others have problems installing the theme I might make a recovery flashable version once CM5-DS goes stable.
so today just came out the stable version of CM5.0.7 -> http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/index....magic-mean-lean-pastry-machine-v507-05252010/
could u make now this theme for recovery (and stock status bar :>)
tnx lov u
I'll see what I can do. It might not be until sometime over the weekend as I'm short on time this week.
that's fine
i'm just happy U'll do it
hey how's Ur work for this recovery flashable theme ? :>
hey dm-digital, what weather widget are you using on those screenshots? can you give a link to the apk?
Can this be used for cyanogen 5.0.8?
Hello...
I need some help about my case, and here it is:
I installed AuraxTSense 8.4 ROM for HTC Desire, and it has its own theme. Then i installed the original HTC sense theme provided by the creator of the ROM (Which should be compatible with the ROM). But i noticed that when i connect the phone to the PC and choose -for example- Charge only, and then i pull down the notification bar, the "Charging icon" doesn't appear, whereas the USB debugging icon just under it appears properly. This happened also when i receive a message, when i pull down the notification bar, the icon doesn't show, only "New Message" shows. (BTW this problem does not appear with AuraxTSense own theme, it just appeared when flashing the original HTC sense theme provided by the creator)
I have another ROM (StarBurst), the original HTC sense theme in it is working %100, so my question is:
Is there a way to take/extract the theme files from StarBurst and flash them on AuraxTSense using Clockworkmod?
If yes, what are the files i need, and how do i get them into the zip file? (as i can see some other files in the flashable zip file like the ones inside META-INF)
I really would like to know if that is possible, as i tried UOT kitchen but it didn't help.
Thanks.
Please help guys!
No suggestions???
Accept the theme or check out the themeing instructions in android development and hacking. You not the first person that wants to theme a rom.

Good day all,
I've got a little thread going with some themed versions of the new 4.2 DeskClock app, and I am looking for anyone who is currently on any 4.2.x ROM who can help me with some testing. I am still on 4.1.2 as I can't take the plunge myself quite yet, so I am not able to do this myself yet.
I am looking to confirm that the theming I have done to the DeskClock APK's doesn't cause any issues with the function of the app. The AOSP version of the APK has some issues when running on 4.1.2, but I am assuming they are not present on 4.2 since I haven't seen anyone complaining about it. I also want to confirm that the flashable ZIP file I made is 4.2-compatible.
The ZIP file here (View attachment 1523414) contains a semi-transparent white version of the 4.2 DeskClock. You are welcome to inspect the contents as well as the updater-script to confirm this. Nothing nefarious. I ask that you try flashing it and help me answer 3 questions:
1) Did the flashable ZIP work? You can confirm by installing the analog clock widget and seeing if it is now semi-transparent (or a fainter white depending on your wallpaper). I can make a ZIP to get you back to stock after that, or if there is a style in the OP you like, and I will make a flashable ZIP for you.
View attachment 1534986
2) Does the new digital clock widget work on 4.2? When I try it on 4.1.2, I get the display error in the screenshot below, even the stock unthemed version. Sadface.
View attachment 1522550
3) Does everything still work? Alarms? Timers? Widgets? No weird FC's when exiting the app while a timer is running?
If anyone is willing to help me with any or all of the things above, it would be greatly appreciated!! You can post here or in the thread over in the Themes & Apps sub-forum, I'll be checking both places
weekend BUMP! any help is appreciated!
I seriously loathe the uber-colorful icons that TouchWiz has for things like the Camera, Gallery, Dialer, etc.
What do I need to do to change them to stock JellyBean icons? Root? Theme? Alternative launcher?
Thanx in advance.
It's super easy to change icons using Nova, & you don't need root. I don't have experience with other launchers, or methods.

Idk if it's the same on the s3 but it is easier if rooted I believe. Drag your rom that your theming onto your computer, find system ui. Apk and extract just that, then open it with 7zip or something like that and then it's in one of the folders inside of the res folder. I think that's where the icons are stored. As long as you don't change the names, you'll be fine. Just replace them and restart your phone. Or re flash using the modified rom
Download a launcher of your choice. My first choice for pimping the UI is sslauncher. Then find an icon pack you want to use. For simple icons that you can choose the colour of I recommend MetroStation.
Icons are normally change in most launchers by first placing them on you home screen and then long pressing them and choosing edit.
Good luck
Check out "mycolorscreen" for inspiration.
Thanx to all 3 of you.
Do any of the methods above help with the notification icons also? I find it really odd that the text messaging notification icon is an envelope... you know, like email.
Accuweather Widget and Main Themed
Well friends, after a really hard work, I present to you the S2 Accuweather Widget and main app themed.
i'm porting the AccuweatherWidget + Main from galaxy s3 thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/themes-apps/mods-xxugmk6-accuweatherwidget-t2073561The widget is based on S4 MOD
so It should work on any JB odex/deodex rom even on cm10+ with tuchwiz.
Also if you are on a stock odex rom it may work if you delete the .odex files
I have tested on deodexed LSW rom and it works like a charm
To Install it just flash the zip via CWM. This will replace your stock widget and main apk so make a backup of both apk just in case
something goes wrong.
If you have any problems then delete the widget and the main apk data and then reboot.

Cyanogenmod 11 nightlies
Hi smoky-jr,
i love your work. Do these work on cynagenmod 11 (i am using the nightlies from 26/07/14)
I have downloaded S2S3-AccuweatherWidget-Main-FullColorful.zip & S2S3-AccuWeatherWidget-FullColorful-Mod05.zip, went into cwm (version 6.0.5.0) and installed without issue but upon reboot neither of them is showing up as widgets?
The only weather widget displayed in the widgets is the clock (cynagenmood stock one) but if i go to settings/apps/all, i have two weather items there:
weather widget (com.sec.android.widgetapp.ap.h....) version 121105.01
weather widget main (com.sec.android.widgetapp.ap.h....) version 121105.01
Are these correct?
On each of them i can 'uninstall updates' and then it asks do i want to replace them with the factory one which i have selected yes to but nothing changes.
Any idea why they are not showing up in my widgets?
Do i need the accuweather app from google play installed first?
sorry for so many questions but this is by far the best looking weather widgets i have seen and would like to get them on my phone. Any help appreciated.

In order for this to work, you should have TouchWiz launcher for cm10-11
You can get it from the following link:
Galaxy S4 Launcher For HDPI
It should work for you.
Hi Smoky-jr,
Thank you so much for the reply and the link. I was hoping to stick with the default trebuchet launcher but i really do want your weather widget so i will switch to the Touchwiz one. I have tried most of the weather widgets on Google play and none of the look half as good as yours - its by far the best looking one i have seen! great work!
Thanks

Hi Smoky-jr,
I tried the launcher but it didn't show up in CM11 anywhere - not in any of the settings (i went through them all), not in apps, nowhere. I installed though CWM as they are all zips.
Maybe that version isn't compatible with CM11 (i am on the nightly version from 26/07/14). I also installed your mods but same as before, there are two weather items listed + weather daemon displayed in apps but all i can do with them is force stop/disable etc.
Sadly I guess i will have to do without these on CM11.
Thanks for your help.

i'm sorry,
first you neet to uninstall the touchwiz launcher then reboot.
you can do this with root explorer or another file manager with root permissions
second try to flash the following touchwiz launcher:
S4_launcher-eHDPI
this zip file contains the launcher and accuweather widgets
afthe flashing the zip file and you checked that the launcher are working only then you can flash my custom accuweather widgets.
Hopefully it will work for you.
Hi Smoky-jr,
I installed the launcher you suggested and Touchwiz was there which i selected and restarted. It seemed to work fine. I installed your widgets and again they didn't show up in the widgets - even though i was using the touchwiz launcher.
I don't think it likes CM11 nightlies (kitkat).....I must admit though i really didn't like the touchwiz interface, i much prefer the default trebuchet launcher in CM11. Even though it has far fewer options, i do prefer the look of it.
I want to thank you for taking the time to help, its very much appreciated. I think i will have to stick with the Sense v2 weather widget i have been using for now.
Thanks for everything

Wow great work, I'm gonna use this!
Hello Smoky-jr,
I installed the S2S3-AccuWeatherWidget (all MOD types) on my Galaxy S3 (SHV E210L). I could not see it correctly (check the screen shot attached)
Please help.
