Themers,
I found a thread on XDA that had some themed keyboard skins for Swype. I have the Beta installed, and have been enrolled for some time. According to the thread here and another which I cannot find right now, you just uninstall and install this version. I tried editing the apk with 7zip, opened the archive, and put the PNGs in the keyboard. Pushed the apk back to data/app and nada.
I tried to re-sign the apk with Android Signer, nada. I tried APKtool and APK Manager, and there are errors decompiling, and nada. I just want to change the keyboard to a different skin.
So the question is, is this possible with the latest version of Swype.
DjDarkknight themed the newest version of swype and its fuccin baaaadass!

I figured out my stupidity! I had to use 7zip to add the files I wanted for the keyboard to the apk, put the apk in APK Manager in the folder for signing, enter 16 to sign the apk, then uninstall Swype and Swype Installer, then installed the apk as normal.
Rocking the Black Glass keyboard from here, looks very nice!
Thank god that other thread got closed cos that guy bit my style so bad I was about to ***** slap him.

Morning.
They are based off the beta. I did them a while ago but luckily Swype haven't changed the layout in a while.

I am moving to the EVO on Friday and am a big keyboard guy. Because of SWYPE I can live without one... I was wondering the one touchscreen keyboard I have liked is SWYPE, does anyone know if the SWYPE app we have working on the Moment will work for the EVO?
OR is there a new 2.1 version of the keyboard out yet?
Thanks for any info or links...

Bielinsk,
Do you happen to have a link to the Swype Nexus One version, I've only got the modded version for the Moment, which I believe runs at a lower resolution.... If you happen to have a link so I can download it and have it to install once I get my EVO I would be very grateful.
Thanks
It is somewhere on here. Not to be an ass, but use the forum search, there was an entire thread about swype on the Evo.
Found it, the thread was under Themes and Apps

sorry but Swype has now been deemed "warez" and can no longer be found on the forum. can't post the file, can't post a link to the file, and i dont even think you can post about it or as much as think about it!

so the porting of swype is warez, but hacking the OS to allow free tethering, a service that by the TOS of sprint is to be paid for, is allowed? I can never understand that one...
The Swype developers threw a fit about it and demanded that the links be removed. I had several themed versions of 2.4 that I created.....only for the thread to be killed and my work done in vain.
You can't blame them........we were giving a free app away for free.lol
@blue... Any chance you have a flashable theme for swype? I have swype already and am part of the swype beta... Any change of getting just a theme?

Especially if it was an apk it flashable
Thanks!!!

I've been able to replace our Market and notification background with both versions from the above posts, and they are real sick! I can start posting them as I go along but I've never posted a zip, nor do I know how to create a zip to flash in clockwork so I'll take a look around and figure it out, or if anyone could point me in the right direction I'd greatly appreciate it!
Freakin sweet!! Downloading now and adding bits and pieces to my theme too. Like posted above I'm not familiar on how to make a flashable zip through clockwork either. maybe someone will chime in.

I usually just grab an existing (theme only), delete out the stuff I don't want, add in the apks (like framework-res.apk) I've modded, then flash... if you're just doing png edits. And make sure you keep the same file structure, of course.
Well I actually tried that but was unsuccessful. Maybe because I was using winrar. I'll try it with 7zip maybe that's my issue. Thanks!

I am running Bionix; which has version 1.5.1 of Facebook themed black.
There is an update to Facebook (1.5.4) which I would like to try to theme and replace 1.5.1.
I tried to open the apk with 7Zip and copy in the drawable folders from 1.5.1 that had the modified images. Then pushed that to my phone to replace the facebook.apk.
When I try to run it; there is a force close in facebook.katana. which is in data/app.
What is that katana file?
Any assisted direction would be greatly appreciated .. Thank you

I have 3 or 4 different ones, pulled from various themes and possibly an individual thread as well. Mystery has a blacked out one that looks really good. I believe one of marcusant's last themes on here has a red one? Maybe? My favorite is the blue glass from the theme with the same name. It rocks.
1- Blue glass
2- Red
3- Black maybe.
Try em out. Might have to push red to system/app for some reason, the rest should just install normally. Just to clarify, none of these are my work, I'm just uploading so it's easier for people to have in one place.

Hey guys, I'm a relative from the AT&T LGOG community.
I made a small (amateurish) theme for the mms.apk for my phone and wanted to try and port it to the sprint variant.
I used the LGUSMms.apk from a deodexed ZV9 stock ROM (posted by b-reezy HERE).
I do not have the Sprint LGOG and therefor have not been able to test this.
Some great users have tested and reported it works. Thanks guys.
LINK to original AT&T thread.
I have spent the last 2 days re-theming the conversation skins for the stock LGUSMms.apk.
I was inspired by whiteguypl's theme HERE.
This has his dark holo theme included. (Has the same little issue where the text color of links that people send you is the same as the background color).
(If you have an issue with this whiteguypl, please let me know).
I have included screenshots for all the themes.
I know they are a little rough, I am still brand new to themeing.
This was some pretty tough work (mostly because I had to learn a lot and made a few mistakes in the process).
Usual Disclaimer:
I am not responsible for any harm done to your device from flashing this.
I have flashed it fine on my phone without issues but cannot promise the same for you.
This replaces the LGUSMms.apk from /system/app/, so I strongly recommend either a system backup in recovery or at least making a copy of your LGUSMms.apk before installation.
Install via recovery.

Are you on a deodexed rom?
If not, maybe try renaming /system/app/LGUSMms.odex to LGUSMms.odex.bak (I'm assuming this is the name of it).
Then reboot.
I had a user say that that worked for another mod on a stock odexed rom.

Right, if you are deodexed there shouldn't be a .odex file, so there shouldn't have been anything to rename (if you renamed the .apk then the system won't see the app anymore, you'll want to change it back).
Did you try changing the conversation skin at all? Maybe one just didn't work (my guess it would be the blue striped background, the image names were different).
Can you try copying the THIS file (just the .apk in the .zip, maybe the .zip didn't flash right) to /system/app and making sure permissions are set to -rw-r--r--.
You'll have to reboot every time you change an app in there.
Thanks, and sorry it didn't work like it should have at first, I appreciate the help.

Great!
By copying the .apk or something else?
If so, maybe the .zip was messed up.
I'm thinking maybe the script is not mounting the partition correctly due to differences between the AT&T and Sprint versions.
--------edit------------
Looks like that may have been the issue, changed the script, updated to V1.2.

And I was hoping to do more, but don't know when (see above) and was also hoping to fix the text color issues. I have been looking around in the .xmls and think I may have found the link colors, but I have yet to find out where the colors are set for individual skins (ie. the green "nature" theme has blue text in it because the original paper skin had blue text in it, I haven't been able to find where that is set).
Just wanted to give you an update, changed ROM's and flashed V1.2 and it worked perfect.
Works great wish we had more color schemes or choices
