glad you like it. I wanted something that would go with just about everything and still look good.
Thanks for that! Makes the effort worthwhile.

It must have been quite an effort... I've edited a few .9.png files, and its not fun. In fact, I've decided to avoid it as much as possible! Figuring out which files to replace is easy, but actually editing them and creating new images is a pain. Thankfully, there are quite a few nice themes already floating around. Lots of tutorials as well.

this is beautiful. anyone tried it on 3.9.1 yet?

smooth I like the icons.

+1 I wanna try with 3.9.1

Got stuck on the g1 screen when flashed on 3.9.1.
Was wonderimg if you can port this theme to 3.9.1

K. Ported to 3.9.1. Ported as fast as I could, so far as i can tell, everything works just fine. Let me know if there is any "weirdness" and I'll try to fix it.

Clock is android apps weather widget(donate). It's a paid app so i couldn't include in the update.zip.

I agree. If there were a color to add....in my opinion blue. And in fact only as a selection highlight.

Sooo, noob question:
There are two links - one for the thee, one for icons. Do the icons from the crenshots not come with the theme? How do we put them into it if not, just flash the .zip.
Related question: why not make theme that the icons can be switched in, like as if using ahome or something. that would be nice

The link for the icons is for bettercut/openhome/ahome/dxtop users who want to use the icons separately.
I would make a theme that can have switchable icons, but I'm not a programmer. You should try the modified launcher thread... I would definitely add that if someone else can code that into the current launcher Cyanogen is using

Boot Animation Tester[V 1.02][Will be Theme tester soon]

The other day I read that awesome Tut on how to create a Boot Animation by kusotare [link] because of this I started creating a few animations. While doing this I would test them out by flashing them, I did not like this so I created an applet that will basically animate them for you... Its pretty simple code, I am sure anyone on here could do it(and im sure some one has) but I figured I would share it with anyone who wanted it.
All you have to do is extract the .zip into a folder, and when you want to test your animations drop 'android-logo-mask.png' and 'android-logo-shine.png' into the folder. After you put them into the folder, open(double click) 'BootAnimationTest.htm'. This will open up your browser and show you the animation.
Requirements:
-This requires that you have the JRE installed
-'android-logo-mask.png' should be 256x480(Other sizes will work, but the app will resize them)
-'android-logo-shine.png' should be 512x480(Other sizes will work, but the app will resize them)
If you want, until I make it fix it automatically you can
find dimensions of android-logo-mask.png n put those values in BootAnimationTest.htm
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Future:
-In the future I plan to make it were it doesnt matter what size your images are.
-Turn this into a full fledged theme tester!
Feature Request: If you have an idea that you want me to add to this let me know, and most likely I will do so.
Just added a Video!
Change Log:
V 1.02:
-Added buttons that increase/decrease the speed of the shine

Nice dude...just dimensions get messed....cuz it treats ur boot imgs like theyre full...but its k i just edit the html to my custom dimensions

Awesome, I will have it where it does it automatically though, among other things... I also think I may turn it into a Jar and have it launch in its own window.
Edit - those red dots, are actualy my name... what happened is that you resized it, so it shrunk the applet.

Yea, thats why I made it, I got tired of having to flash over and over to test mine.

Thanks for the kudos on my tutorial. I had a tough time doing it my first time around, and after six or seven hundred of my friends with G1s asked me how i did it, I finally broke down and did the tutorial.
On the other hand, I absolutely love what you've done with the applet. That will certainly make it easier for people to come up with something they'll really like instead of having to tweak-and-flash as most of us have been doing for ages. Excellent work!

Thanks! it really only took me 3 minutes to right but I think it will help me for as long as I make boot animations

hey, the tutorial didnt take me much longer, so dont feel too bad. the longest damn part of it was writing the script for the video down so i could read it back into the mic!
by the way, i added a link to the first post here into the tutorial post. you really did hit a keystone here thats gonna help people. cheers!

How do you guys feel about the speed of the shine? I think I will add a button that will let you make it faster or slower

Helpful, fast and time saving tool...
This is really a great and helpful tool. Its a must have on the utility belt of all theme-er's.
Excellent work...

This is an awesome tool, it'll help me cut down on wearing out my NAND flashing theme updates over and over just to test the boot screen. Thanks a lot!
Edit: Just tried it out on one of my old non used boot animations I had, the 'animation' scroll should be faster in my opinion. I remember seeing it speeding by at least 2x the speed as the applet does it. BUT the buttons to increase/decrese speed would be ideal. Some people may prefer it slower, some fast.
Again great job on this, you saved a lot of trouble!

Is that possible? IF you're able to do that, you'll hear a lot of "I LOVE YOU"s from theme makers, especially me.
I understand it would be a 'rough draft' sort of thing considering the .9.png and such but really just to see everything 'together' before flashing it would be a welcome change than what we can do now.

Yea, I don't think it would be hard at all... It will just take me a while.
Edit - Ok, so I just posted the new build. This build just added the speed buttons. By the end of the week I hope to have a build that is a full theme tester up. I also think that later on down the road I will make this into a JFrame instead of an applet. Also, what is the deal with the .9.png?

Ok I have been messing with themes, and its coming together good. Its going to take me a while because I have school though.

.9.png are images that Android resizes to work in any situation. like the buttons. sometimes they are small sometimes they take up the whole screen. you have to sign them in eclipse for them to work right. check out this thread for a more detailed description of them and what it takes to get them working properly.
if you do make a theme tester I will have kids just so i can name them Burlyskink.

For theme and boot testing...did anybody see the news story about running an emulated Android os (complete with G1 skin) on a Windows PC?
It looks just like a brand new fresh stock G1 and it works. I wonder if that could test out themese and mods?

This looked promising,... but.... you support firerat rather than dta2sd?! I have seen sooo many posts from people who couldn't figure out how to recover from firerat. I'm def not saying you're wrong, and also appreciate your contribution hee. My only point is, if you think firerat is the way to go, I think it would be helpful for users for you to explain why/how. Just my. 02¢ thanks for your contribution.

That he did, and i'll post how to recover from it in the second post.
I personally don't like dta2sd because of the need to format your sdcard, creating wear on it.
moving data/apps/caches to the sdcard.. slows down your device unless you have a class 8+ card.

Again,Thanks for keeping Sense 3.5 Alive! Am I the only one who loved Bliss? I tried Runny for a few days and eh,I love Bliss! Is anyone planning on porting it again???

Nice man, really good to see someone else working on this. will try this out tomorrow.
It's really good that you've removed the theme. I think that no rom should be released with a theme as user preference is such a random thing not everyone is going to want a custom theme.
Anyway good luck and I hope you get everything working on this, I'm waiting for a working/decent 3.5 rom to use as a base still.

Thank you to everyone.
I wasn't expecting much support, honestly, since King's little rampage there.
And yes I will most likely pick back up on Bliss myself.
Bliss is an excellent base, if anyone has the v3 zip of bliss with working wifi, please do, and i'll continue development for it.

What's. Working in here?

Thanks bro, definitely, msg me on gtalk in the am.
I want to get these previews resolved, and I have some ideas, want to get a huddle going with you, lithid, and I.

Good work. looking forward to this.

Just flashed and I'm really excited to get this project rolling. Mostly everything worked but I didn't do a full test. I'm going to wait for a bit until everything gets ironed out to make this my daily driver. The only thing I could see didn't work was in the dock mode it wouldn't do a picture frame and the pen app wouldn't work. I was really hoping the would implement the wallpaper in the pin lockscreen back into 3.5 but i guess htc had other plans. What exactly is the Show Me app and the provisioning app?

hey Slawson check your PM brother mayne.

Just flashed to play around and I can tell this is gonna be siiiiiiiiiiickkk!! Can't wait to see what becomes of this!

Fantastic stuff. Will definitely keep a close eye on this project.
While I'm downloading, will Bliss' Quick Launch Widget work with this ROM?

[02-12-11] Boot Animation (Old PC meets ICS boot w sound / flashable / screenshots)

Hi everyone, I got some inspiration earlier today when I was thinking about oldskool Windows OS boot up sequence and decided to make a bootanimation zip for myself.
So what I did is I found a BIOS boot animation created by animelover (massive thanks to him) and merged it with a stock ICS boot screen. Reminded me of my old Windows 98 boot process where you get the initial BIOS start after which is goes to Windows splash screen. Except here it goes to ICS boot screen.
Looks amazing I think and still has that old hard disk starting sound at the beginning as well. Ahh, the nostalgia...
I might still make some minor changes later, but for now I can't stop restarting my phone. Love it too much, so I decided to share it with you guys.
The file is attached below. If you want to use it in your ROM or theme that's fine, just let me know first. The one thing I ask is that you give credits to me for splicing these two together and of course animelover for creating the original SGS2 BIOS bootanimation.
Thanks and enjoy!
​
-----
Installation:
1. I recommend wiping cache and dalvik cache but it isn't necessary.
2. Download the ZIP from the attachments section below and flash it via CWM Recovery.
Screenshots:
Included in the attachments below.

Notice:
I did this for fun and I'm not expecting anything in return. If you feel you like the animation, clicking thanks below is always appreciated.

Hehe, I've just tried it. A combination of my 2 favorite bootanimations, really nice!

now every ROM should just have this integrated!

Cool mate

Thanks guys! I'm glad you like it. Anyone can include it in their rom or theme.
I might raise the fps a bit though, what do you guys think?

Hmm... well I tried to explain to the best of my abilities what it's like in 1st post. You can always backup your existing system/media/bootanimation.zip by renaming it to bootanimation.zip.bak. You can do this with root explorer or super manager.
Then flash this one to try it, if you don't like it then just go back to your old bootanimation.zip.
I will try to update the first post with some screenshots later tonight anyways.

Tablet UI transparent status/sys bar HELP

Ok guys,
Im going to post this in every Note 2 variant forum until I can figure this out.. I mmanaged to get a working transparent status/systembar on my note 2 on tablet UI.. the only problem being that my phone totally locked up and being the DUMB a$$ that I am I did create a backup.. reflashed a rom and thought I could recreate it.. I have located what I think the files name is and it is tw_status_bar_background.9.png. Now when I try to recreate it the status bar becomes all distored when pressing something.. I will show you pictures below of it working and it NOT working.. Any help or guidance would be much appreciated.. I am not asking anyone to give me a step by step but more of just yes thats the right file or no thats not it..
PS the black line you see at the bottom of first pic is bc the wallpaper is not scaled properly, which can be fixed..

well, i have started to mod my phone with tablet ui for more than a year but still yet to release anything athough i am using it on daily basis from note -> s3 -> note2 now. however, since the updates were rolled out quite frequently in the last year, i had to switch to new firmwares and redo/rewrite the changes accordingly because there were quite a lot of fundamental changes recently. this process is time consuming especially i employed some parts of firmwares from other devices as well as the custom features i added. so, i am not sure when i can release something since i modded the kernel and the rom as well in my own way which compromises the usual practice in terms of structure and so forth. that means i have to make sure it is compatible with other roms first, and then i must ensure i have time to solve and fix users problems
