[10/30][MetaMorphMod] Add BLUR animations to ANY rom/theme!!

NOTE: This will work with *ANY* rom/theme. As long as you can get MetaMorph running, its should work.
To flash simply put BlurAnimations.zip into the "AndroidThemes" directory on your sdcard, then go into terminal type the following:
Code:
su
mm.sh -i
Then follow the prompt. Select #2, then select the BlurAnimation.zip file, then once its done press 1 to select the frameworks-apk and hit enter to flash.
REBOOT is necessary after this.
Find out more info at the MetaMorph thread.
For those that have no clue what the Blur animations are:
-When you hit 'menu' key, it 'bounces' up and down before snapping into place.
-When you open or close apps, it zooms in and zooms out of the app image.
Before you needed to flash a theme that included these in order to use them. Now you can flash these on top of the default rom theme, or on top of ANY of your favorite themes.
To go back to defaults, simply flash your rom or theme back again.
(Technical info if anyone is interested: Blur animations reside in frameworks.apk in res/anim/ folder, there are about 45 files that you can pull and drop into any themes/roms and it'll work, this just does that job very very easily for you)
If anyone wants to do a little animation video/gif of this in action, please give me the link to post as example.

It only works on ASOP roms, not hero correct?

If metamorph works on hero roms (I'm not sure, try installing it) this should work on any rom as well. All it does is replaces files in frameworks.apk>res>anim which hero roms have as well.
Its better to do a nandroid backup before you run it though, just to be safe :]

This would probably work in hero roms, but not entirely sure, Just do a nandroid before testing.
Also, Awesome idea Prash, Blur animations on any rom without having to flash a theme, very nice.
Stericson

Thanks Prash,
Just wanted to let you know this worked great for my magic with the gchrome theme (gChrome-0.3.8-CY4.2-LS.zip). No FC's as reported in MM thread.

Not working in Rogers Mod :-(
Prash - I was trying to do this in "Enomther's Rogers Mod v1.9.1" and it says:
ERROR: The theme control file says that we are looking for the dir framework-res within /sdcard/AndroidThemes/BlurAnimations but it could not be found! Invalid theme.
I tried both options 1 and 2 (full theme / theme of my choice) - it is giving the above error when trying to apply the Sub Theme step :-(

Could you try again with the latest mm.sh files? I just tried the blur animations and it work fine. I'm sure even that rom has a frameworks-res directory, i usually do option 2, then pick the right file, then hit enter to apply.

Very cool, yet simple theme. Im lovin this new system for themes

Tried twice or thrice but ended up with the same error. Requested the frameqork-res.apk from enomther so that I can push it to the ROM to get the blur animations...
Not sure whether it is the issue with the ROM (since I ran it sucessfully in Cyan 4.3.2.1)

the blur animations work on hero. I am not sure if this method works on hero though, i would imagine since it is the same exact directory.

good job. works on dwang 1.13 on mt3g.

re-updated this but it doesn't work for the nexus for some reason only the bouncing part i tried everything even tried my own through searching..

Works just great on Cyanogen's 5.07 Test3 Rom for the Dream/Sapphire.
Very happy with it as on this Rom the animation style was "slide" instead of "zoom", and the latter is wayyyy cooler
So thanks! This makes my whole phone-experience much nicer

No problem glad I can help still trying to figure out how to make this work for Android 2.1 phones.
-------------------------------------
sent from my beos computer

I am using an Android 2.1 phone...
[Edit] Got to admit: while applying this theme the telephone reboots by itself (during the update). After booting up all works fine though. Just applied the new DarkStar theme which removed the blur-effect so after flashing that theme I Metamorphed this Blur morph again, phone rebooted, and works well yet again (Cyanogen 5 Test3 + hotfix + DarkStar 2 + Blur anims + Cloverdale's Blackbar + overclock kernel = phone heaven)

[Theme] SHKvBLK for MCR ROMs: 11/02/2010

I accept NO responsibility for any damage caused to your handset before, during and after updating it with these THEMEs. Using custom THEMEs has risks attached to it, and can be dangerous. Proceed with caution.
Description
Basically I have taken Kos's theme and made it more of a black/grey theme. I have gone deeper into the OS and replaced most of the green stuff with black/grey etc.
There are also bits from themes found at xda for other Android devices. Ended up doing a lot more than what i should of really
There is still a bit of green left and most of it is where it makes sense to have it (some check boxes, indicators etc).
WORKS ON MoDaCo MCR3.1 & 3.2 Beta's ROM.​
Fixed or should i say replaced, the lock screen for a different one . Hopefully that is it ​
MetaMorph Version​>>>​GET IT FROM HERE <<<​
Update.zip Version​>>>​COMING SOON <<<​
This theme is purely for people who like black/dark themes. Please don't write bad feedback or that it isn't to your taste, as i won't change it or provide reasons for my choices .
Use the attached Wallpaper for use in SenseUI. In Android it is already default
Big thanks to Kos for base theme, tristan for inspiration & all the CREATORS & ORIGINATORS of anything that may of been theirs in some form!!... (u know who u are )
Enjoy.
KEEP A LOOK OUT.​

Details!
Update.zip is 31.8mb in size as its a fair few .apk's
Metamorph file size is just over 5mb, so i have achieved a smallish footprint of this theme.
Modifications
Rework of Android UI
Customised Keypad dialler
Status Bar Icons from HelloMoto
Over 40 apk's have been modified in some way
Changed the Screen Lock pattern icons
Lots of stuff i cant think of.......
*I have only modified the apk's i am currently using on my ROM build (3.2 Beta 5; very LITE version)
Basically i have edited a lot of stuff, changed a lot stuff and borrowed a lot of stuff To make this theme, i like it, now...
And am gonna be making a LITE ROM, based on MCR builds and also a ASOP build based on one of those builds...with this type of theme built in.
FYI
Your Home screens will be reset, i cant do this yet (put them like i want), but in future i will be able to, just need to open the xmls with hextool..will be same result with the update.zip too.
I have used Beautiful Home here in my screen shots for my Home....i just wanted to show you a comparison of HTC vs Android (not much difference)
The Battery Widget is BatteryLife
The Settings Widgets are Beautiful Widgets
The News Widget is News Buzz
I did the Google search bar in the Android UI too
I am ultimately NOT responsible for anything that occurs from use of the provided theme. Use at your own risk and hopefully enjoy it.

How To Install Metamorph Theme
Always BACKUP your Hero (Nandroid or whatever you use)
For best INSTALL RESULTS for Metamorph & update.zip, Re-install current ROM fully, let it install, set up, then reboot when finished...
Then either....
see below for options....
Metamorph Version
1. Download the Metamorph application from the Market
2. Download AndExplorer application from the Market
The above are required, Metamorph uses AndExplorer to search your device for themes
3. Download then copy the .zip theme from this thread, to your SD card to a location you know of.
4. Open Metamorph, and select 'Pick Theme' after it checks your device
5. Select the theme from its location, then Install All (Apply All).
6. It will extract the theme, and a progress bar is now shown in Metamorph as it extracts the theme.
7. It will then install each apk one at a time... it will take some minutes...and some more.....
When it asks to force close an app, please do so.
** I recommend keeping the phone awake during the installation to ensure it installs as quick as possible **
8. When it asks to REBOOT, it probably won't (even in newest Metamorph version), so just manually reboot by turning device off and then on again.
Update.zip Version
1. Download then copy the .zip theme from this thread, to your SD card (ROOT)
2. Boot Device to Recovery mode & flash as normal...
3. Reboot
RESULT
If you already run other themes in some form or another, the best install method above will benefit you most

Nobody tried this yet?
Come on, please leave feedback.
Shokka9

I tried your Theme and its still ob my hero,so i like it.
There is just one thing i dont like:
The dark black coloured Status bar at The Top. Its to dark dir me. When you pull it down its a little more grey, this colour i would like to See as Standard.
Hope you. get what i mean.
Cheers

I get ya bro....
But i prefer the Black bar , thats how i do it....
If you want i could make u a quick Grey bar like the pull down and post later tonight (am at work) and u can just update with Metamorph

right ive installed it this is my first time trying metamorph so bare with me. i followed your instructions above it installed and i then rebooted and ended up with a few problems
-it removed my people.apk completely off the phone
-removed most my widgets from my home screen but i just added these back on
-it completely removed the htc picture frame widget altogether
- when i press the phone button it just brought up a text saying phone it didnt actually open the dailer
- lock screen was still the same
- the pattern password screen was still the same
ive restored my nandroid backup and will try again.

still a no go for me im affraid i tried to install some parts individually but im still having problems. if you could do a update.zip that i can apply from the recovery menu id appreciate it as i like the look of the theme from the screen shots

@ mjcook1984
Thats strange.....what ROM are you running.
For it removing apk's; well thats something i have never seen.
All those widgets, are actually in the metamorph theme too, so it wouldnt remove them.
Try installing one at time.....bit tedious but hey.
Update.zip will come, i made one last night, but it doesnt work fully.
I even sucessfully installed this theme to my own ROM (based on Modaco 3.2 beta 5), it has no rosie etc.
Even tho the ROM didnt have some of the apk's it still installed fine and everything working fine.
I would recommend, wiping, then when fully booted, reboot, then use Metamorph again. NEVER UPDATE a metamorph theme ALWAYS replace.

thers defo something strange i just tried kos-worlds black eclair and that came up with the same problems.
im running modaco 3.1
ah just realised ive not got andexplorer ive been using astro will try again

Hmmm....i tested mine originally on MCR 3.1 (and 3.0 & 3.2) so it should work....
I know you wont want to, but try wiping, reflashing the 3.1 ROM, rebooting, then running Metamorph.
Strange. Have you used any other Metamorph themes before?

no first time ive tried to use it. just tried again with andexplore installed still the same problems but this time the htcpictureframe.apk stayed. i am using a custom theme that was applied from the recovery menu i wonder if that causing the problem. il re flash 3.1 and see if that sorts it

That might be it....
Try again bro

UPDATE.zip now available
update.zip coming to the first post soon....
Posts updated accordingly.

White Circle Battery Metamorph

White Circle Metamorph
*Disclaimer* I am not responsible for damaging your phone. You have to realize by now that all modifications performed by you are YOUR responsiblity. I will feel bad if it messes up your phone somehow, but I don't have any $, so you are on your own. To be on the safe side, always do a Nandroid back up before playing with the framework-res.apk *Disclaimer*
So, I have moved on in the phone world to the Motorola Droid, but I want to show you all that I still have some love for the Eris world. I have been seeing some interest in using the Circle Battery icons, so I went a head and modified the Transparent Chaos MetaMorph to just give you the battery icons only. Prerequisites:
1) You must be rooted.
2) You must have Metamorph and Busybox installed.
3) You must have a folder labeled: AndroidThemes on your SD card.
4) You must download this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9903887/Transparent_Chaos.zip and put it in your AndroidThemes folder on SD card.
So, here's how we do this thing then:
1) Open MetaMorph
2) Unzip/Extract New Theme
3) Choose your Transparent_Chaos.zip
4) At this stage, it will probably boot you out of the app with a warning about it not being named right (blah blah blah), but not to worry, just go back in and then choose the Pick Existing Theme, navigate to the folder Transparent_Chaos and then chose the Transparent_Chaos.XML file and select.
5) It will apply, and then tell you it made a change that requires a reboot, select OK or Yes or whatever.
6) Enjoy.
It will wipe your wallpaper too, though I am not certain why. Easy fix though lol. If there is enough call for it, I can make colored versions. Hope everyone likes it

Thanks, looks great.

Works like a charm and looks great, thanks

Most roms have this baked in. I know the Cyanogen based roms do, not too sure about Sense roms. I haven't used one of those in 6 months probably. If you have a CM based rom, you'll find this under Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Status Bar > Battery Percentage. If you have a Sense based rom, you might want to check out this other MM theme I made, here: http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/183907-circle-battery-zip.html#post1653756
This is just the battery from xtrRom so thank the dev for that, I just made it into a MM theme. Hope this helps.

[DISCUSS] General Questions/Problems with Theming

There seems to be a lot of things that are new when it comes to theming the Nexus S and Gingerbread in general.
A lot of us have run into various problems.
The purpose of this thread is to discuss the problems we're facing and to ask general questions regarding theming.

Issues:
1. [SOLVED] I can't flash anything unless it is the full ROM. I tried jabbawalkee's base zip but no luck.
Solution: Post 12. Thanks to ogdobber.
2. If I make a nand of a themed ROM and try to restore it, I get a bootloop. Unthemed ROM works fine.
Temporary Solution: Don't use ROM Manager to restore your themed Nandroids. Go to recovery and restore the Nand and don't reboot.
Flash the pertinent ROM again without wiping anything, then reboot. Flash the theme again.
3. How to get out of a bootloop? I've been doing the battery pull and volume up + power button does not work during a bootloop.
Solution: adb reboot recovery
4. [SOLVED] Nexus S loses signal after reboot.
After unlocking the bootloader, I used paul's Superboot to get root and used ROM manager to flash the latest CWM. All is well except every-time I reboot, I lose the signal (it shows emergency calls only) and I have to search for available networks in Mobile network settings.
Solution:
In the dialpad enter *#*#4636#*#*
Select phone information
Scroll down to preferred networks
Select "WCDMA only"
Click on Update
You need to re-enter the SMSC Carrier number. For WIND Mobile Canada, SMSC is 16135009000
Android requires you to enter this info in Hex.
Hex = 07916131059000F0
For Mobilicity Canada Hex = 07916174080001F6
In the dialpad enter *#*#4636#*#*
Select phone information
Scroll down to SMSC field, enter 07916131059000F0 and done. Then reboot.

Theming Guide:
Master™ started a guide where we could post useful stuff like the transparent notification bar & anything else in a simple Nexus S (or gingerbread guide...)

In regard to #1, you're right about that. The mount line is incorrect, I believe it needs to be changed to ext4 instead of mtd but I haven't gotten the line just right yet. I contacted PaulOBrien and Koush for assistance but didn't have much luck getting it right.
In terms of #4, I actually didn't have that same issue with his Superboot...but perhaps I overlooked it.
Hopefully we can get a theme zip base to work from. I'm hoping one of the ROM devs can jump in and maybe push us in the right direction. I'm not a code type of guy so I let the coders do the update script stuff . In the meantime, we'll just have to use the full ROM.
Thanks for this thread sonny!

On the Galaxy S I can find the data and wifi icons for the notification bar no problem, but I can't seem to find them anywhere for the Nexus S (along with a couple of others). Sorry if the answer is obvious, but I'm stuck. Could someone please point me in the right direction?

this is a solution to problem 1.
in the META-INF\com\google\android needs to have updater-script and update-binary
the updater-script needs the following line
Code:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
attached is a meta-inf. use it in place of your current one for flashing themes

Thanks ogdobber.

start with the 2 links below, you basically need to change the transparency level on the widget_background in the drawable(hdpi) folder. but it is not that easy because it is a .9 png (unless you go 100%)

Its a number for a Beautiful widgets clock skin. By flatten it I mean in photoshop CS5 when you make an image with multiple layers (the layers get created automatically when I try to add anything, in this case text) in order to save it as anything but a .psd you have to flatten it (IE force all of the layers into one).

Exactly, I'm trying to save it as a png but in order to do that I have to flatten the image which causes the transparency of the background to disappear.

ADB Mod installer

This is in place until TWRP is ready. You need root and of course you need to be attached to your PC. On first installation of systemui base, a pop-up asking to give ADB shell root permission will show. Please do so.
The purpose of this installer is to generate for you a custom module that you can flash in Magisk Manager. It will have all the mods that you have selected from the installer menu.
Custom clocks (date, etc) and internet speed indicators do not change colors due to light-dark background colors like the statusbar icons do.
The developer of Active edge gave me permission to use his base so that people would not have to make a choice between his and my mods. All credit for this goes to him. You must delete the active edge sense module and use one of my active edge modules. If it doesn't say active edge then it isn't active edge sense compatible. If there is an issue with edge sense after flashing, do not contact edge sense op with issues. He does not troubleshoot modified versions of his mod (and neither do I).
I'm also including my Pixel Launcher mod. Also a ADB Installer. You can change app drawer background-text color (separately for light mode and dark mode), remove weather from Launcher. Change the number of hot seat icons on home page (and size) as well as change the number of columns in the app drawer.
ADB Installer Instructions-Root is required
1. Flash one of the SystemUI Bases First. They provide the necessary smali files and public ID's for everything to work.
2. FLASH ALL THE MODS YOU WANT. ONCE YOU DONE WITH EVERYTHING, FLASH THE "COMPLETE INSTALLATION" Option. This will create a Magisk Manager flashable zip in a folder on your sdcard called ozop. Flash that to install your selection of mods.
Root required
Instructions.
1. Unzip ADB Mods Installer Files.zip on your PC
2. Run TulsadiverModsInstaller.bat (Give ADB Root Permissions)
3. ADB debugging Enabled
4. Flash one of the SystemUI Bases First. They provide the necessary smali files and public ID's for everything to work
5. Go through the other options selecting what all mods you want. It is generally best to start at the top and work your way down.
6. Once finished with selections, run "Complete Installation" at the bottom. This will generate your mymagisk.zip module in a folder called "ozop" on your sdcard.

it didnt work, i ran a complete installation, now boots, and instantly powers off to a page with
Code:
Can't load android system. Your data may be corrupt. If you continue to get this message, you may need to perform a factory data reset and erase all user data stored on this device.
This is the error in ADB:

cp: bad '/sdcard/vrthemeADBversion/installtheme.sh': No such file or directory

UPDATE: I didn't install base. Now I have another problem... It tries to boot and doesn't, it takes forever, then reboots and gets the first error again...

To uninstall mods do we just flash stock?

Posted an ADB installer for December update.

I guess I am a little confused on how this mod works and I have a hard time risking not having a nonbootable phone. I read through some of the 3 xl thread and it seems like we need our phone connected for it to make a magisk module to which we then flash via magisk? This doesn't actually flash anything, correct?
Mainly, all I need is the back/home buttons swapped, which I have now but it seems the December update breaks that according to another thread.

Mainly, all I need is the back/home buttons swapped, which I have now but it seems the December update breaks that according to another thread.

For just three button mode? You can try flashing this if you like. Do you have active edge installed?
Swapping the two is easy though you need a way to get it on your phone which this should do.

Alright, I'll give that a shot when I get time to do the December update. I do not have active edge installed.

January update uploaded.

Is this going to have to be updated during every monthly update? Wish Google would just make it so we could change the positions of the 3 button navigation.

Depends on the update. If that is all you want, go to this thread:

I'm a little confused on this. These just magisk modules? How do I know what's being swapped?

Thanks. I assume I can do this myself with your adb mod installer, correct? I tried messing with it before but now I am two months behind on updates.

No, these are stand-alone modules and cannot be mixed with any other SystemUIGoogle.apk module (modification) and is built for January update.

Oh yeah, ok, makes sense. I was more saying that if I wanted to do this myself and not have you provide a magisk module each time, then I would use the mod installer and go through that way to create my own?
