Hi guys! I am having some trouble themeing this. I am familiar with transparency as I have done the status bar itself, and I did the background for the pull down bar transparent but it shows up black.. I've searched hi and low (I'm sure I'm doing something wrong not to find the answer, and I'm sorry for this but I really would like to know how to do this). Is there an edit I need to do to an xml file or something I'm not familiar with XML what so ever but if anyone could help me out in anyway guide me in the right direction or whatever that would be very great and I'd be very appreciative!, thanks guys

That would be great, how do I open the file though?do I need some apk tool?

No I hear you I appriciate it man, I do the same thing I just recently learned how to deodex an RUU file so I've just been running stock rom with my own additions, which is why I asked this question
If you're really interested in learning this, and you can't figure it out with extensive google research, try sending a private message to stoney 666, jlechner, or chingy51o.
Be mindful that they are all senior members and are very busy, but they are also very committed to this community. Show due respect and they should help you out.
Good luck my friend.
Any of these super chefs want to give us a definitive guide on how to add the CRT animations to a ROM?
I am more than comfortable with decompiling and modifying XMLs, but it would be nice to know where i am going.
Think of it this way... Whenever anyone else asks you about the animations, you can just link them to this thread and be done with it.
And yes, i have searched and there isnt much good information out there.
Even better - any way someone can create a flashable zip to add these to any rom? Now that devs are baking them into their roms,i dont see why it wouldn't be possible!

Try this flashable zip BUT before you go and do all of this, NANDROID backup your ROM......ONCE AGAIN, BACKUP your ROM.....because this is 50/50, it might work, I just tried it on sense 2.2 and it works like a champ!
Also, don't just flash it and NEVER come on here again....let me know if it does or doesn't because if it does then I'll start up a thread so others can use it....

I have seen the how to enable thread (Thanks freeza!), but this is how I found to make the feature functional. Enable Shutter Sound (Working)
Note: In the Jelly Bean LIF Update, the build.prop no longer forces CameraSound, If you have updated to Jelly Bean, ignore step one.
Step One: First we make an edit to the build.prop file located in "/system/build.prop"
Edit the following line:
#add camera sound property for SPR concept
ro.camera.sound.forced=1
To look like this:
#add camera sound property for SPR concept
ro.camera.sound.forced=0
Step Two: So far we have changed the build.prop, now we will change an option in the feature.xml located in "/system/csc/feature.xml"
Edit the following line:
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>false</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
To look like this:
<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>
So now we will save these files and replace them with the originals.
Reboot and enjoy the ability to turn off the shutter sound when you please, and re enable it when you please as well!
Let me know if you need any help.
Hit the thanks button!

Yes Zeke, I completely realized that. All Im asking is shouldn't the creator of the modification be giving proper acknowledgement? Or link to the original creators thread so pple will know who exactly had parts into the creation? Instead of making a new thread like the OP of the new thread is the original creator. When I created the SAME MOD thats in this thread 3 to 4days before you posted ur thread I even quoted Freeza for one part(/system/csc/feature.xml file edit) and Kitcar from a Epic Touch thread for the other part (the build.prop) edit.
All I did was take both parts, from two different forums and put them together and posted the solution on the same thread that was talking about the problem. I combined Freeza's mod with Kitcar's mod and the shutter on and off worked with the menu button. Then I posted the solution for everyone to see in the same thread. Im not trying to take props from u I just think pple should have been linked to that thread or my post if they wanted to know who had something to do with the modification instead of making a whole new thread about it, with out links to the orignal thread because the solution was in there. Freeza could of even updated the orignal post with the solution and gave proper acknowledgement when ever he had time.

Lol Boxer Briefs here Zeke... i just hate when people take credit for my work. U put 'Hit the Thanks button" below ur post like you should be given thanks for my MOD. I created this MOD with a little searching and you made a thread about it. That it.
Like I said im not trying to steal ur props Im just saying give credit where credit is due. Yes im just a Junior Member so maybe thats y u dont want to give me credit for being the original finder of this MOD but you will just credit Freeza because it was found in his thread. But i am the one who posted this Camera MOD/FIX in Freeza's thread before you made THIS thread about it.

I did this on my stock rooted LI3 phone and it wouldn't boot afterwards. Just a black screen. Had to revert the changes to those files before I could boot.
Is this mod only supported in a specific version of the firmware?

You must have done something very wrong and different bro. Try again and follow these easy instructions very carefully, and if your on TW it works. If you really need the help, I dont mind. Send me your System folder and ill adjust for you.... let me know.
If you two keep fighting the mods will lock this thread. Also a bit different then how i remove the camera sounds but still good.

Clark44 has a silent sound overwriting the original maybe? It's been months since o flashes that Rom sorry bro... see if there are any other changes by him maybe? But I'm thinking that the shutter sound was replaced with a silent file so no matter what now it's not gonna make a noise...? Let me know bro. I'll help however I can.

The first time I did this, I modified the files with ES file explorer's default text editor.
I installed busybox and used vi to edit it, and that seems to have worked correctly!

Hi excuse me, I have a problem with settings icon that was missed in app drawer, I modded settings.apk and move into SD card, then I opened root explorer. I've tried to copy to system > app and set permission rw-r-r- and then reboot. After reboot, settings icon has been gone. :crying: What should I do ?

What do you think someone who has released themes and ROMs should do.
Did you make a backup?
If not, find the original apk in the main rom file on your computer.
Or re-install ROM.

Only options really :/

It's quite obvious to be honest, see, when things like that happen to me, I retrace my steps, double check everything I may have modded, amend where necessary and try again, repeating the process should my amendments fail again, until the apk works, this guy however trys something once then starts threads like this at the first failure, and as you can see from their last thread and thread history doesn't take anything you say on board, so it's highly frustrating to see yet another, pointless thread from this guy.
Pointless threads are one thing, yes.
Pointless answers are another.
If you dont want to help, dont post - easy.
The thread has already been made.
Im fairly sure a lot of other users agree with me.

Not that I know of...I've decompiled the phone and contacts and its much more complicated then aosp that I'm use to.
I can't even find an older lg dialer that's been inverted to try and compare.

you can try team blackout here on xda and I think they have there own website. I think they have inverted apks and just maybe you can ask them to theme the OGP. I know they have a dark dialer and contact already but since I'm not rooted I did look very deep into it. but team blackout might be a good place to start.

Yeah that is a nice looking dialer. I dont see anything wrong with wanting to cutomize your phone to look like what you want it to. And I certainly dont think taking characteristics from other apps or phones that interest you is a downgrade. However I dont know of any way to make quite the look your trying to achieve.
Ofcourse customizations might not matter to some but then if they dont why would they be here? After all this is a forum totally built around customizing your phone isn't it? Twas a bit rude to call it a downgrade and tell you to go packing and perhaps that started a downward spiral in this thread. Still the black dialer app was an attempt.
Alright, thread moved and cleaned:
1.- The subject of the thread it's customization I don't know why some of you are discussing about which phone is better
2.- Swearing it's forbidden by the rules
3.- If some user don't have nothing helpful to add then don't answer, if you think that something it's wrong just report it
4.- Be respectful
5.- Here is a link to the rules, all of you read it definitely it's necessary: http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?a=81
i come to respect this thread. the OP posted a good question. but some trolls here wrecked this thread up by posting stupid remarks. then when the OP defends himself, the mod further messed up the thread by cleaning up the essential posts. all you trolls need to stop trolling this nonsense.
i ask that the mod monitor this thread and be fair.
