[Q]Zooper skin, and missing fonts ! Help! - Zooper Widget General

So I made an apk for zooper containing clock widgets, and I used many 3rd party fonts for it.
When I saved the widget to build apk , fonts are saved as .ttf.jet and I built the apk with eclipse .
But now people are reporting that they can't see the fonts I used.
Am I doing anything wrong or is it an issue with zooper?
Here's my app if you wanna take a look at. You can see the fonts I used in the preview while applying the widget.

You step into the same trap is I did mate. The solution to it is quite simple though: delete the .jet extensions from the font files and re-compile, then it should work again.
But before you do that, do me a favor and save your current eclipse project as a ZIP and send it to [email protected]. The dev said the problem with .jet-fonts should have been fixed and that he needed samples to work it out. Put a description in the email about your problem so he knows what it's about. I already send in a sample but the more the better, especially if they are from different sources

[Q] Help modding Smooth Calender Widget

I was wondering if anyone could take the slick smoked glass background from the apk I posted and modify the newest version of smooth calender widget with it. The new version has a much nicer calender icon (Attached Below). The old version on the apk has an icon that looks kind of tacky. I've looked but I cannot seem to figure out how to modify this particular app.
Thanks in advance for anyone that can give a hand.
Wow, with all the amazing themers on this site nobody can give me any pointers or help me mod one simple app?
Maybe wait a bit more than 4 hours before you get discouraged.

4hrs? I think you missread the post times, This was posted a day ago. There have been over 50 views already. I'm not trying to be rude, nor am I expecting somebody to have to do it for me. I merely asked if someone with more expertise than me could either mod it or at least help me to do it. With over 50 views you would think someone would have said it can't be done or at least pointed me in the right direction.
I'm not sure if the newest version has added functionality etc. that you would also want, but if alll you want to do is change the icon you should be able to use APK Edit (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=890876) to update the older version with the newer icon. Hope this helps

smooth calender is a widget, I know how to change icons, this widget does not have a drawable-hdpi folder like most of the others. I'm looking to change the background of the most recent smooth calender widget from the matted black to the smooth smoked glass that is in the apk I provided in the OP, I just don't know how to do it on this particular app.
If that is not possible, I would like the icon I provided to replace the on that is in my provided apk, only problem is I don't think that would work because smooth calender changes the date each day on the icon.
Is there anyone that can at least give me some pointers?

[Q] How do I edit a widget's background?

Not sure if this belongs in the Dev section or here.
Anyway, attached is a screenshot of my homescreen. I am wondering how to edit the Google+ widget to give it a transparent background instead of the dark bg.
I know how to edit photos and apply a transparent bg, etc., I am just not sure how to edit the widget itself. Is it a matter of getting the .apk and extracting an image to edit? I used to edit icons for my iOS devices, so I assume this might be the same with .apk files ...
Any tips would be helpful!
Thanks!
I'd like to know too. I tried to edit the widget background for the honeycomb music app to be semi-transparent by taking the trans widget background from sense music widget.
Honeycomb music apk had a file called appwidget_bg.9.png so i renamed the one from sense to that name using 7zip, but new apk wouldnt install for me.
Not sure if any of this helps you. But I'd like to know too.
In the apk, there should be a folder called res or resources, i forget. Pretty sure relevant file is in there if I remember correctly. Good luck.

I've modded the app.
instructions:
- install the app from the market (you already have it installed so you may be able to skip this step)
- remove the widget if its on one of the screens
- use root exprlorer to copy the file I posted to the /data/app folder
- set the permissions (rw-r--r--)
- readd the widget
that worked for me.
Download the attachment
Thanks but I get force close when I try.

I thought I would try the above mod again and it still force closes. Does anyone else know how to get the google+ transparent widget? Martijua's mod is exactly what I am looking for, but for some reason it doesn't work. :-(
Thanks!

DN3 4.4.2 Rom Theme for resflux replacing default contact icons

I post this minimal mod here though it is a very simple one, just because I think that many of us dislike the default icons of contacts that are infesting system wide secContacts.apk, IncallUi, messages, email and so on....
After flashing a touchwiz based rom, I usually replace those icons with the standard icon extracted from the stock google dialer (the gray one) which is by far more serious and not so creepy. It is obviously not difficult and does not even involve decompiling the apks, nor signing them (if they are system apps), but still it requires some time to replace the drawables inside the various apk files. I sometimes made my own VRthemes to replace such icons, but still even such way is not so easy and fast.
But I recently installed this wonderful xposed module, named resflux http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/resflux-easy-android-theming-xposed-t2790940 by WisdomSky, which has got a huge potential and allows everyone to make a dummy proof theming without decompiling anything.
The credit obviously goes to WisdomSky, I just post a link https://www.dropbox.com/s/remjjpo7qo360hr/Resflux.zip where you can find the very simple themes I made and which can be imported trough resflux.
You just have to unzip the file and save the 6 zip files inside it to the resflux folder of your phone (resflux will create such folder by itself) and later on you will able to import such themes by resflux itself.
I am using this themes with a 4.4.2 DN3 Rom, as I wrote above, but it could work even for any other rom (though it hasn't been tested) unless the apk are different.
Anyway, if my theme should not apply, in case the apks should not macth, still it would be very easy to follow the instructions in the thread by WisdomSky I linked above and to replace the drawables inside contacts, messages, email, incallui and the 2 favourite contacts widgets.
Regarding resflux, it is still in its first stages, so I saw that some mods don't get applied: i.e. I tried to theme the S5 launcher by replacing the drawer icon and the default folder icon with the one of the GEL launcher, but reflux was unable to do it. No problem, I replaced those icons by hand without using resflux
Sounds cool, do you have any screenshots?

Here it is https://www.dropbox.com/s/vrfcf6jl2mgpv3k/Screenshots_2014-08-13-02-04-34.png
It simply replaces the icons of the touchwiz with the google ones.
Great

Thanks, it is a great app. To be true, later on I themed the single apk files, but this app is very handy because it allows you to test your mod in a few minutes and to go back if you are not satisfied without any effort.

Do you mean you dislike the icons I replaced, or have you been unable to apply the mod?

custom wallpapers

I figured I would make a thread where everybody can share their artwork. Plz only share wallpapers u made, unless you give the creator credit then u can share somebody elses.
Zooper widgets: all downloaded files are to be put in template folder. Go to Zooper widget folder that's where templates folder is. I've added all assets just update location and you are good to go.
KLWP: I will be adding these very soon.
You need paid versions of both apps in order for these to work. Stop being a cheap skate and spent a few dollars already.
If u build your own widgets plz share them on this thread is not only for my work but yours also thanks.
Death to pixel!!!!!!!!!! Be creative
Hoping to release romnation wall and widget pack with dock icons by the beginning of next month. I've made a lot of walls from scratch. So far 17 icons 31 walls and 46 widgets are done. They will be free but with a donate app. The walls and widgets I'm sharing here are just quickies I threw together in-between getting actual work done. Hope you find them useful.
Thanks to @ppontos for contributing

Themes

Anyone knows if we can modify themes via the phone files or maybe even create one ? The theme market s*cks so bad and wich i could implant an icon pack. (I miss nova launcher for that feature)
Thanks ?
You would think they have some kind of theme maker since they have a theme store on the Chinese version. If you look at .NubiaTheme/theme_infos/using/icons the icons file is just a zip file with the icons in it. Maybe they can be changed in there. And also take a look at description.xml I would but don't have time at the moment.
Icons seems to be packaged in a root file. Cant open. Description xml is empty ??*
Rename icons and add the .zip extension then you can look what's inside. Also use a note editor of some sort to read the xml files.
I use the theme apk and downloaded one of the free themes. It put the them in .NubiaThemes/theme_infos I was able to change the wallpaper and icons and went back into the theme app and was able to apply the theme with the new wallpapers and icons. So by doing this you can make your own custom themes.
I found out you can change other things like the background of the dialer, messages, etc... But need the xml config file from a theme that has the items listed so I know what I can change. And you can preset your fonts in the xml also. I've tried all the free ones they have so far and there pretty much the same, different main background and icons. There has to be a default file that has that info in it. I will try and guess what the config is maybe I will get somewhere.
Ok cuz even my friend who creates themes for android is baffled.... xD
Download activity launcher and search Nubia theme within the application. That allows you to change to nubias provided themes
Here is an idea of what you can change
Im not talking about simply changing or mixing themes. Talking about edit the xml file to be able to change every color,menus or icon the way you want.
??*?
i replaced most of the icons and renamed them to match the apps and all but a few worked I did about 30so far Im still needing the names to a few like the playstore etc...
So what i did was took the icon folder renamed it to icon.zip then uncompressed it removed all the icons so I could get an idea of the names of them and one by one replaced them.
Then I zipped the res folder thats inside of icons and named it icons.zip , renamed it to just icons remove the .zip and copy back in the theme folder where it came from. Change to that theme and your icons will be changed.
So here is an example I wanted to change chrome's icon. I found the icon I wanted to use and named it com.android.chrome.png put that in the icon folder and your done now you have to go in and replace each and find the names of them.
Here is a screen shot of mine changed but the playstore and some google apps I havent worked on yet.

What was the source folder of the icons ? Ive tried using the icon folder from sdcard/.nubiatheme/ theme_mix/using but didnt work
Sorry about that, input the wrong folder in my previous post. It's actually theme_infos I just now saw it and went back and corrected it.

Make sure you have the theme.apk from the Chinese phone version installed. Then go into the theme store and pick a free thrme down load it and it will show up in theme_infos then you'll see a folder with a bunch of numbers and letters. Just pick one and that will be your theme you will make the changes in . When you change the preview wallpaper it will show like that in the store also of themes you own.

Alright. It worked. Like you said some app will not work but most of em does.
But we now miss matching icons for other apps ? guess i can extract icons from an icon pack and pick from there.
On the other hand, i really like the dark grey and red themed international defaut icons. (Someone who have so time could create an extra alternate edition international icon pack that includes more designs for other apps, hey we can dream, right??)
Thanks for the know how ! Its appreciated.
Almost every icon can be changed, but somehow some of them just wont work. (Calendar, Clock, Pool Break Pro and Textra) All the other ive tested works. (104/108apps)
That looks good.
