I love the theme chooser themes nowadays, but why do they have to have battery percentage? I don't have the smarts to do it myself. And it's kind of rediculus that some devs say they "can't remove it" help please, themes like the elegant blue, and the sense 4. I purchased and donated, and asked to take battery percentage off and just have an icon only. But nope. Can somebody help
Because they put it there they aren't gunna just take it out because you don't like it.
I'll give ya the short and sweet.
Decompile the app
Remove all 200+ pngs (that they might have made from scratch each one)
Remove the XML in drawable for the battery and battery charger.XML
Recompile the app
Sign it
Install it and realize all this could have been avoided by getting over the fact that there are numbers in your battery.

Okay, I don't know what there wasn't an understanding about, I don't have the smarts to do all that, sorry.. But I donate a lot too, but I guess that dosent help very much. Second. I'm on a apple iPad 3 which is very much close to a garbage heap.
listen man, this that you ask might even be possible, but the fact is that many won't go out of their way to remove something that many enjoy.
i still use normal battery graphics. i'm kanging theme chooser into my flavour, to enjoy battery percentage from time to time.
why dont you search for the cm theme template and go from there?

I guess you didn't get the hint that I am one of those themers that absolutely hate when people ask for the stock battery. Want the stock battery use the stock theme. Otherwise figure out how to do it yourself or better yet get over it.

Alright man, you don't have to be a jerk okay?. Maybe if somebody had the patience to actually explain the process and leave some "positive" feed back. And may I say, many of my partners have the same trouble, but don't think your "themes" are anything of superior quality. So. If you do not have anything nice to say and keep the forum clean, then don't post Thankyou. Positive comments only please.

I really don't get what the fuss is about this theme, ok so credit should be given where it's due I'm not arguing, but surely all that's required in this instance is "here's my theme - parts are borrowed from here and here, what do you think?" is sufficient.
It's ridiculous that we even feel the need to debate this, someone went out and built a theme they liked, and decided they would share it with the rest of us, something they did not need to do! Instead of saying thanks, we've shut down a thread because it wasn't precise enough about where it's components were found!
Regarding this theme, i love it, i think it almost perfectly combines the best parts of other themes and apart from the splash screen which i rarely see, makes my phone look great. I can't ask the developer to improve the theme now though thanks to a debate about a couple of icons! fantastic!

thanks faith..
it is clearly ridiculous..but i cant do anything..
HYBRID has in no way stop at all...this is just a set back..
i want my thread back....my original thread..
i am not going to make a new 1 cuz there no neeed..
to everybody that has MY HYBID THEME...or not
please post ur comments and give ur opinion about this whole situation...
and tell the admin/moderators u want my thread re opened....
please help me..
thats all i ask in return...
VIVA LA RESISTANCE!!!!!!!!!! hahah lol
i agree...the thread should be re opened because there is nothing wrong with his theme or how it was created. if you close his then you should close alot others because i know of 3 themes that share the EXACT same clock as the hybrid theme and a few icons and i dont see any reference to whee there clock and icons came from on there thread. everyone is not gonna have a completely different theme, clock, and set of icons. so IMO as long as he acknowledges that he made his theme from a combination of others i feel it is sufficient because whose to sat who FIRST created the black transparant clock that 3THEMES share and icons. as long as he is not saying he created the whole theme from scratch and taking all the cedit then whats the problem? nobody is payin for these themes so its not like he's getting anything from it besides happy hackers who love his work!
If you are referring to the black carbon fiber clock, the actual clock was posted by brandenk in a thread where he gave permission for anyone to use it.

Ok, but there are still a number of themes that share some the same icons and dont give credit to one another.
I do feel that shutting the thread down is the wrong decision...if that is the case, then I want the "Post ONLY your G1 Wallpapers here!" threat shut down...I know for a fact, that there is a Guinness wallpaper on there that I created and uploaded to g1wallz.com that is posted under someone elses name and no credit is given to me. I never really b!tched about it because I dont really care (I posted it on the www afterall, if it was that important to me I would have just kept it to myself)...but if we are going to get picky about giving recognition and asking for permissions then...
Some examples may be helpful, some of us have gotten icons from each other and some from deviantartbut I know the staff doesn't have time to go through every theme that shares something so examples may be needed
Ok here's a simple solution to give credit to all that's do credit.
Disclaimer=
*** I appreciate the hard work and have used icons/images from various sources.. for your hard work I appreciate it and you work lives on in insert theme name here. I wish I can recall all the names of the original makers but I can't as I have scoured the internet and other sources and can't recollect them. If 1 of your images is posted here that should not have been redistributed or used please feel free to contact Theme maker name here and we will work on resolving the issue.
End Disclaimer
The above should quickly cover your own @ss and give credit and thus stopping the fighting.
Now how many people have used google to search an item to recreate? not all are graphic masters and not all while trying to develop something remembers their sources.
I personally thank all theme makers and others for their hard work!!!
ANYONE ANYWHERE MAY USE ANY AND ALL COMPONENTS OF MY THEMES WITH OR WITHOUT ANY REFERENCE TO ME OR THOSE THAT HELP ME
With that said, I am here to help and learn. We are what make this phone awesome, not Google, not HTC, not T-mobile, and not any 1 person. I am truly honored anytime you guys use my components in your own themes, if I didnt I would not bother to make them.
If you guys cant understand that imitation is the highest form of flattery all I can say is go watch Star Trek, I learned this lesson from Data on TNG years ago and it has served me very well. Granted, i love it when you guys mention my name if you use my clock but Im not going to be offended if you dont. Especially since the clock wasnt "my idea". Im sure there are a million people out there that could argue they created something very similar way before me, and to them all I have to say is thank you for the great idea and I hope you appreciate my hard work to take your "idea" to the next level.
My ideal scenario would be everyone taking bits and pieces from themes they like and compiling them into a theme that is perfect for them.
Do you know how many of them probably got their icons from the same source? I know some of the themes were yes, obviously borrowed icons, but others were just coincidence. The whole point of open source is that anyone, can take anything anyone makes, change some ****, and create something totally new. Yes, they SHOULD provide credit, but its not key.
Simply put, if you don't want people to use your ideas, do NOT post them. Simple as that. Any moderator that finds the need to close a thread for that purpose is just, well lack for a better word, dumb.
Now to the theme makers directly, I thank them for all the work they put into the themes, it is a lot of work. However they aren't doing it for us, its for them. I wouldn't create a theme based on what everyone else will want, I'd make one that I like, I enjoy, then later post it here to allow others to use it.
So everyone, stop *****ing, stop complaining, and just enjoy what everyone has to offer.
I used that very same clock in my theme and I credited brandenk for it, what tootall4la is doing is wrong. Some people put allot of work into creating these themes, the least he could do is say thanks to brandenk for his clock and what not. Also, I think he got a complete lack of respect for others. Here's a quote when someone suggested he give credit to other people for using their work to create his "Frankenstein"
its a nice suggestion but will not be taken because..
i already gave credit to those ppl!!!!!!!!!!..
i am claming my theme.. im not claming anything else...
like i explained to jdwme..
and thats where my frankenstein title comes from because i use all these parts to make a new theme(a.k.a frankenstein) a new breed the HYBRID...
just call me creative.. no one else though of doing this.. to not dissapoint other theme makers..why should i ask for permission???haha..well im just doing what i think would be a great looking theme and so far ppl do think it is...so suck it lol.

Open the thread most of the themes contain parts of other themes,I know cause I can see my work all over but that does not matter. Hey guys I also say anything I have done as far as themes can be used with out giving me credit or permission if you want to give credit that would be better but its cool with me either way.

Well....this is indeed a touchy subject. I Believe the thread should be reopened as well but.....I agree with Geo411. There does seem to be a lack of respect for other authors. There are authors on here such as Manup and Brandek that do not care, but that does not go for everyone. I for one dont really care for my own theme, but I love and respect all who have contributed to the community and wish that we do give credit to others that worked so hard and actually wanted to be recognized for it. It really does not take that much time to type out a few lines of recognition....Reopen the thread once recognition has been given.

Unless his attitude changes tootall4la will keep hitting a brick wall.
G1 is a fine line with "crediting" sources, since it is open-source.
Although, common courtesy of a thank you to all, is humane, a nice juster.
As for tootall4la's thread to reopen, noticing most theme makers dont mind whether they get credit or not, tootall4la should figure out who he should thank and PM him or them and work it out.
My opinion on this matter doesnt mean a thing. Since im not the mod who closed the thread, i wont be the mod to reopen it without assurance from all, that it's ok to reopen it.

Very Well Put... This Would Really Help Solve All This Madness. and i noticed they shut down the thread but i havent seen ONE post supporting keeping the thread closed which should make a point to the moderators that just because ONE person may have a problem, what ablout the rest of the people on the forums who IMO majority doesn't have a problem and wants the thread re opened.
Agreed, and it is personal taste. As a rule of thumb I think communities like this function more on sharing than owning content so if you want to own your content this community probably isnt the place for you. That said, I would like to encourage the sharing aspect of the community and remember, even tho I dont mind anyone using my components, when I get a thank you it goes a long way. Sometimes its a simple "ty" other times its someone buying me a beer, either way the more I get from you guys for my hard work the more willing I am to bust my balls trying to improve things for you guys.
What goes around comes around.
One Q; if the site really cared if we got credit then why is there no thank you button which would solve the problem. When you drop your theme you can be thanked and get your credit automatic.
Anyway a theme section is what's really needed not people fighting about themes who's icons belong to another designer,does anybody ask them permission?
Keep the piece guys it not that serious I would take what ever part of the theme that the other person is complaining about. Tell me what it is and ill make one for you,but I hope this is not going to be your only theme. I want to see some more work after this original.
Hey I also don't mind if people use/improve my theme, what I'm referring to was the improper etiquette used. Here's a PM from a user on the forum asking if he can improve upon my theme. This is proper etiquette.

I say this because some people cant accept the fact that others believe something else besides them and I have seen many heated arguments about religion and if you do that in this post...
IT WILL GET LOCKED AND/OR DELETED!

It's rather ugly, I think. Very solid color, very little in the way of artistry or design.
Cool

I see a lot of great themes for Stericson lock screen, but they are all tied to a full theme.
I'd really like if you theme creators could release the lock screen theme seperately, for those people like me, who would like to keep the standard theme for the rest of the phone (or combine it with another theme).

pull the files fromthe lockscreen in the framework-res.apk /res/drawable/ inside there will be files named zzlockdock zzlockdock bottom.png etc. just take those files and put them in the same place as the one you want to use.

Its actually a permanent solution.... get the signing utility set up, and you can use any themed lockscreen. Seems better to do it yourself rather than relying on others to customize your phone

Going by that statement, I should make my own theme... and trust me... you don't want to see that...
And by the way, no offence, but I really do have better things to spend my time on, than messing about with this, trying to get this thing I don't know enough about, to work.
take the images at the end of framework-res.apk with zz in front of them
drop them into a 7-zip archive for the most recent update of stercisons lockscreen that you want to use
sign the file
flash the file
or do this on a phone with the stock look of stericson's lockscreen
take the framework-res.apk from gchrome, put it on the root of your sdcard, boot into recovery
Code:
mount sdcard
mount system
cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
reboot
it may not work but you can try it, also it will have the 700+ .pngs from gchrome so the lockscreen isn't the only thing that will look like gchrome.

The lockscreen has all the framework graphics in it. So to change the lockscreen graphics alone you will have to add them to your current themed framework-res.apk. So you will at least have to learn how to theme the lockscreen by yourself.

You only have to replace about 20 images, there are guides all over the place. If you need help you can pm me.
Seriously though, I've owned a computer for almost 10 months now. I have no college education, and the last grade I completed was the 10th grade. No offense, but if you have the time to post on xda, then you have the time to change your lockscreen (about 5 min).

Glad that you are too lazy to waste 5 mins of your major important time, really do you expect everyone else to waste their time to help you, wait they already did by answering you. Word of advice that is great: don't be ignorent your entire life, learn to do things yourself because people suck and are unrealible
Its too bad I wasted my precious 5 minutes posting on xda, I was gonna upload a .zip for you but ran out of time ;-)
.... so sad. This can be a productive thread where you follow the instructions everyone is giving you, and then share what you learn with other people.... but nah, f**k it.... just ***** me out for offering to spend my minutes helping you.
Why do people insist on acting like they are lazy or bigger than a task, when in reality they are scared of trying something new, are they afraid that they will fail, I ask. I say learn, try new things, you never know what new knowledge or expernence in life will take you in the future. It could be the best thing for you that will lead you on a great path to possibely fill your sad empty life and lead yourself to fullfill your great expectations in life

Jonny will you be my friend
Hello. I have noticed over the last 3 months that the theme section has been dropping off dramatically. I dare say it has a major thing to do with JKAY which is fantastic mind you however I am still sad and want someone to make me feel better.
Themers please come out with something other than ICS for the love of god. I am willing to start a bounty.
Theme Ideas:
My number 1 picks would go in order as follows
1. ELEGANT STEEL
2. BUUF
3. MATTED BLUES
4. MULTI COLOURED GINGERBREAD
5. A NEW BLACK THEME
I am no doubt going to get flamed for this but if only I get through to 1 person I am happy
I'm not saying this trying to be funny, but i think the easiest thing to do would be to learn how to do it yourself.
There are a lot of guides around I'm sure your aware of, it's not that difficult to string some images together, the hard part is editing smali for major theme changes.
I'm guessing the main reason it's been dropping around here is people are probably in the same boat as myself, not enough spare time to do anything, and any spare time you do have, there are more important things like family etc.
Hopefully when I get my new computer for xmas I can start doing some things again (if the missus let's me of course!!).
I agree with the ICS point, they seem to be everywhere ATM lol. I'm not a fan of stock looking themes so I'll probably try and expand the v2 of glowing glass contacts and maybe update phone candy to a final and retire it.
I am willing to learn how to make themes icons even splash themes. I know the ropes of illustrator and photoshop ect. But i need a helping hand to point me out where to start with what tutoruial. In return ill post my "work" for free. Please provide me with links so i can make the next person happy.
I would like to make themes for sgs2 for people who run cm7.1

There are a lot of guides around I'm sure your aware of, it's not that difficult to string some images together, the hard part is editing smali for major theme changes.
I'm guessing the main reason it's been dropping around here is people are probably in the same boat as myself, not enough spare time to do anything, and any spare time you do have, there are more important things like family etc.
Hopefully when I get my new computer for xmas I can start doing some things again (if the missus let's me of course!!).
I agree with the ICS point, they seem to be everywhere ATM lol. I'm not a fan of stock looking themes so I'll probably try and expand the v2 of glowing glass contacts and maybe update phone candy to a final and retire it.

Nobody has any right to flame u for saying your opinion mate but IMO themers are just waiting cuz ICS is coming quite quickly and I know someone of them is just working on leaked version just to prepare their magic.
Moreover I'm sure we'll see real beautiful things cuz everybody would like to create something better to beat Samsung UGLINESS
Personally I'm in love with ICS theme by Vertumus and I can't wait to see his beauty on real ICS firmware...but for any other themes u're asking for just be patient and wait a little and you'll see I'm f***ing right

Theming for cm7 is nothing like what you see here. You need to learn the T-Mobile theme engine to create themes for cm7.
The following is a good guide.

Just got my Note 4 and before I work on my next theme I wanted to get some help on what color theme your guys would like to see first on the note 4? RED? BLUE? GREEN? BLACK? GRAFFITI THEME? CAMO THEME? So voice your opinion on the next SICK MADE THEME for the Note 4!!
Black, all the way!!!
Pink pink pink lol
Black is beautiful :good:
Black with blue text... not to be to picky or anything.

Blacked Out!
Black everything with white font is always a good neutral place to start. :thumbup:
Blacked out with dark pink highlights. The Halo look is getting old, and white on black is boring.
Blacked-out with pink highlights? I don't know about that but I agree that holo blue truly is getting old! I'll release a Blacked-out base 1st then think of a color to highlight the theme throughout with. I would prefer something different than I have done before. But I'm gonna get started on it tonight. What rom should I base it off of?

I dunno, the blink theme looks really good on cm roms. Ever since it's been my default, looks good on all my phones. It can work.

X-Note imo.

White with red

Well I have contacts inverted...Blacked-out just black and white. Looks good couldn't wait to get rid of that f'in white dialer! lol.. gonna move onto mms, settings, then systemui and phone but should hopefully be able to release a Blacked-out theme by tomorrow!
That CM11 theme looks awesome.
Perhaps you could do something along those lines.
But either way I just wanted to say thanks for even thinking about doing this.
Foreverloco had an awesome theme he released out of the kindness of his heart and people started kanging his work. So hopefully all of the people chomping at the bit to get a nice theme for their phones will be more respectful of other people's hard work this time around.

Is that what happened? Is that why @foreverloco closed his thread? Wow! I don't blame him! What people kanged his theme and actually tried releasing themes like they inverted everything? Wow! That's my boy and he's a cool ass dude.... all people needed to do was to talk to him and ask for permission to use certain things and give proper thanks in their thread...... he may not have wanted to let others use certain stuff because of all the time that is put in inverting everything and I personally don't blame him for that because he's the type of dude where he as well as me also don't like just giving away work that took days to do but having said that he will walk you through how to do each and every little thing so that your not just taking the easy way out using someone else's work but your actually doing the work yourself and with all do respect until you are at a certain level of respect with fellow themers that's how it is.. you have to earn your respect with other themers and once you do there's no issue with sharing each others work because you help each other out and your not just a guy saying can I have or will you invert this for me type of dude. I don't blame him 1 bit and for those of you out there who don't know now you know! LOL
He told me via PM who.
However, I suggest you PM him as I am going to respect his privacy and not post the PM contents here.
Look, I'm just a dude who gets headaches from bright light sources and his theme was very helpful to me. This whole situation blows. I feel terrible for him because when he made the theme and the inverts, he didn't even own the phone. He was just being nice.
I also don't want to derail the thread so this post will be my last on this topic.
If you want to make us a theme rock on, if you don't rock on. Either way stay frosty and have a nice day.

Oh don't even trip it's not even a big deal who it was.... I hate bright as a screens too! Lol. So I'm here to share my work with those who are like us and hate bright ass white screens. I could care less who was Kangin because kangin will never ever stop. I just ran into a few people using my work and it just won't stop. It's here to stay so I'm not interested in any names lol
Stock base would be nice I use Rapture (stock based) and I know a lot of folks use Firekat. The theme should work for both. 3minit battery option would be sweet too.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I myself have "TRIED" to make a theme or two in the past and foreverloco has always been nothing but amazing to me and has stuck out his hand to help anytime I've ever asked. They don't get much classier then him. So I really appreciate everything you said. Can't wait to see what you come up with. We definitely need anther talented themer in this area. If there is ever anything I can do feel free to send me a pm.
Honestly there's a couple of roms with blacked out themes. I'd like to see something different like neon colors or anything really besides blacked out . Just my two cents
