[THEME] Clean TW Lockscreen Mod

Hi everyone!
I didn't like the animated arrows on Samsung's lockscreen, but couldn't find a mod for it here.
So I tweaked it a bit to remove the text and the arrows Here's a preview:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

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

"lightbox_download": "Download",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Includes my battery icons as a bonus
XWJPA
XWJPA (with multi-locale support)
XXJPO (with multi-locale support)

How-to:
1. Decompile framework-res.apk, navigate to \res\values\
2. do a search for strings.xml files in explorer
3. Drag and drop all the files from the search results into Notepad++
4. Find using REG expressions:
zzz_glass_lock_help_text_2.*
replace with:
zzz_glass_lock_help_text_2"> </string>
(Tip: use the "replace in all open documents" button)
5. Save all files
6. Compile apk as usual

Nice m8. Works great.
Edit: Noticed that I still have the text for swiping the screen. Did you remove only english text because mine is in finnish?

What is the name of the file you have edited to remove the wordings?

Nice
Can you also make this for JPM please?

For English, it's under res\values\strings.xml
Do a search in the file for zzz_glass_lock_help_text_2
You can also find other strings.xml files for various languages in other values folders (e.g. values-es)

Is it possible to get this for JM1? I would absolutely love this D:

Using your JPO Version but changed battery icon (Version E from repository)
For anyone interested..
Updateable through CWM (rename to update.zip or use install from zip option).

thank you great work!

Does it need deodexed ROM?

@Cy4n1d3 Can I use this with JPA?

As JPO and JPA seem to be mostly different in localization I would take a wild guess and say yes.
You better prepare an update.zip with your vanilla framework though better safe than sorry.

Not at the moment, I'm waiting for the official Froyo builds to be released before making mods for them. Right now seems many are suffering from ORD (me included )
Also looking into how the pngs can be added to apks to save some work

This is exactlly what i was looking for...but now ive had it for a few days and reading other mods is there any chance you could make the extended power menu for this aswell? then it will truely be perfection...

I agree.. i love the look of this theme..
If it included the ext. power menu.. I would use it forever.. lol
Maybe this is something that can be done by me if someone tells me how?
Also i am a noob with this stuff.. i have no idea how to install this even with instructions in thread.. So i would like to make this into a cwm flashable zip.. with the power menu added. If it's easy maybe someone could tell me how or just cook it up for me?

Damn I love that clock.
I wish there was a widget with that clock on the market,
looks very elegant

Roboto Font APK ...Updated working apk link.

Hi , I managed to create apk of roboto fonts !!!
Install it and let me know, how do you feel about fonts !!!
I must thank AndroidPolice for a link to zip file of fonts.
Update , working apk by reddit.... Thanks ... Take a look at this post...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18613907

Can't see any difference to standard font?!

Yes, the same as default one, no difference.

I also installed and saw no difference after activating it on settings / display ...
I'm on Samsung Galaxy S II / android 2.3.5

Well, From my point of view, its more or less same ... I also feel the same as default...however, its slightly different.

Changing the font in the settings does not work.

Either it doesn't work or it looks exactly the same as the standard font.

if i am not mistaken you actually need to have a rooted phone in order to use this.
As the fonts are stored in the System, they are not accesible by the apk directly.
I dont believe that it will work with any stock Rom.
But someone with higher knowledge might shed some more light into this if i am wrong.

thanks,do you can add other fonts??

I was answering your question on how to change the font. Whether you actually see any changes is a different question.

I only managed to get the font working via CWM (it actually replaces droidsans).
Check attachments
- default font
- roboto font set via app
- roboto font set via CWM (replacing droidsans)

It worked for me

[DEVTOOL] Saint's Color Editor v1.1 (changing colors in Android XML files made easy)

Saint's Color Editor v1.1​
I developed this tool to easily edit android colors in decompiled xml files. I'm sharing it here to help other themers because personally I found changing colors in xml files as the most painful part of theming.​

Change Log
Version 1.1
* Looks up and loads named colors like @color/black from the same xml file and also interprets standard named colors
* Improved error handling​
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How to install and use?
Pretty simple..
- Unzip ColorEditor.exe anywhere you like and run..
- You must have Microsoft .NET Framework 4 installed on your pc
- Open any android xml file that contains colors
- Click on colors you want to change and choose alternate color from the color dialog that pops up (the app will automatically identify the hex code)
- When you are done, hit File/Save or Saveas..​... as simple as that

Very good tool definately makes changing colors easy. One question is do you use this to change the colors.xml from framework res cause i seem to just get boot loops whenever changing a couple of colours in that file even if just copy the resources file to a working framework res still get a bootloop. Not sure what to try. I only change the clock and secondary text colour. Any help would be great.
Thanks

Yes, I use this a lot to change colors.xml and no I never had boot loops. Boot loops cannot be due to changing colors. It could be due to the way you compile the apk's. For system apk's try not to flash signed apk's. I used to get boot loops when I sign system apk's. Flash only unsigned system apk's. Hope this helps...

hi i want to change the color of like the text in messages, the text which you type out, which value should i edit in my framework color.xml?

How to build apps icon pack:
Things you require:
-Base VRTheme-Here!(Don't worry there are no trojans)
-Some icons-Here are my AOSP icons.
-Required apps from the ROM which you want to modify.
-Notepad++ for changing updater-script.
-Any resizing tool.
-A brain to avoid mistakes and bother me with stupid questions.
-Kindness to press the THANKS button below.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Steps:
1. Download all the things required.
2. Open your ROM and copy all the apps and move them to a seperate folder. Here we will take only 3 apps-Browser, Messaging and Calculator.
{
"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"
}
3. Now extract these apps using 7zip or winrar.
4. Now open the app folder, go to res and find the location where the icon of the app is present. These are generally present in mipmap-xhdpi or drawable-xhdpi. For e.g. in Browser app it's present in mipmap-xhdpi named as ic_launcher_browser.png:
5. Now extract the VRTheme base folder and go to vrtheme->system->app and make a new folder their with named as appname.apk(Here appname refers to the name of the app). For e.g. Browser.apk in my case.
6. Now make res folder in it. And under res folder make another folder which contains app icon. For e.g res->mipmap-xhdpi in my case:
7. Now place your modified icon in it and rename it to the original icon name. For e.g. ic_launcher_browser.png in my case. And resize it to 96X96. Please do not resize mdpi or hdpi icons or else they will pixelize and blur.
8. Do the same for other apps. In my case calculator and messaging.
9. Now give this icon pack your name. Go to META-INF->com->google->android and open updater-script with notepad++ and in second line replace alokbina with your name. You can practically change almost everything under ui_print in updater-script but remember that it should be in the format ui_print("ABCD"); . Here replace ABCD with whatever you like.
10. Now you will be having 4 folders- data, META-INF, system, vrtheme and an image named as preview. Zip all these and rename it whatever you like and flash it with CWM and you're done! Enjoy your own icon pack Feel free to THANK me :laugh:
