Hi all,
I've made my own "theme" (the word is a bit exaggerated) by using DHD-PowerControl-1.72.405.2_notxt and cook it with UOT.
The result is in blue in the screen below.
But, I'd like to swap it with the one made with the one made by he_stheone64 in PowerNotificationWidget2.2.1 (see the red rectangle in screen below).
The problem is that PowerNotificationWidget2.2.1 changes other things I wouldn't like to be scrashed (like icons above or non-transparent carbon-look background below).
Then I tried to do the same of what I did for the white one : cooking framework-res.apk. But I had the long error log you can also see below.
So, could someone help me to do that swap and perhaps if possible, make the little bars below each toggles a bit more green than blue.
Thanks for your help,
Lim.
I'm working on something similar as well - a notification bar power control, based on the latest 2.1.1 services.jar and the customisation app. The idea is that it's as close to stock framework as possible, so that it can be uploaded to UOT (or otherwise themed with metamorph etc.).
This is mainly just a learning exercise for me in decompiling and modifying files, but if it works I can share it. I find the toggles show up better on a black background than a white one, so hope to include black background as an option - though I think that might break compatibility with UOT kitchen, so there might have to be 2 versions. It's a work in progress, though, depending on my free time, so I can't promise when it'll be done. I'll post here if I get it working though!

Hi Preach,
So far, I managed to swap the toggles png's (taking png's from he_stheone64's file) but no way to find and put the black background.
I would also like to have the little bars below more green than current blue. For this I guess it's in an xml file, but can not find which one (and how to do).
Liamstears told me there's was a mistake he_stheone64 could fix, but it's seems not to the case. He also told me he could help me to fix that, but he certainly doesn't have time.
I don't know in which direction to go but if you have any idea, I would be happy to make tries with you.
Good luck
I made for myself something like this It is a little bit tricked but effect is like on screen. This mod has no transparency in notification but it looks as STOCK as possible cause i prefer stock one
To change colour of those indicators u use app (which is installed with PowerMOD) U got there color picker. With bacground it`s not so easy thats why i tricked it a little removed bacground of toggles (made it transaprent) and set up whole notifiacion with chosen background and effect U see is below:
Will post this mod in my thread tommorow if somebody will need this

Hi Krzysiec,
This is exactly what I'm looking for (and probably the same for Preacher65).
As I can see, your framework-res.apk is cookable in UOT (battery).
Below notification, you manage to keep carbon background instead of white background, is it made with the same tweak ?
Tell us when you post this mod
I`m afraid my mod isn`t compatibile with UOT ... only leamstear framework-res.apk is cookable in UOT. All thing I do is manually changed by me. It is the easiest way for me Guys cook in OUT icons U want and than manually mix them with for ex. my mod. Thats easiest way I make all my icons/mods/ manually automat will never generate icons I like Will post it as soon as possible. The trick is I set up ONE bacground for notification and Power mod ... this is only ONE SINGLE background ... PowerMod background is transparent so wee se background from notification (which is carbon one) So when U slide up notification area U see how background moves behind Toggles But in static position it looks like on the screen (for me PERFECT and AS STOCK AS POSSIBLE)

Ok I downloaded your PowerNotificationMod by Krzysiec but it doesn't look like your screen above (see mine below, where there is the carrier and the DesireHD mark at the bottom).
And I have to find a way to include the icons (see other screen) I cooked from UOT which has more than battery icons..
LOL Wrong file Will fix it in a minute
About icons... just pull them off from framework-res U cooked in UOT and drag and drop into my framework For battery U must replace all needed files and three compiled xml if U got different animation than BASIC from UOT.

Ok, for this, I can search for all the considered icons by comparing with the one shown in UOT and I guess they will crush over the existing stock one.
Is that right ?

I'm not sure to understand what you mean.
My battery icons are the one you see in my previous screen called "Version B, White numbers". So I think this is the basic from UOT. Aren't they ?
If not what are these 3 compiled xml and from wher do I take them ?
EDIT : I saw that you updated your thread at 14:55 (CET) so I thought you updated the file. But it's still the same look... Perhaps you didn't update ?
Fixed version (i hope so) is UP try it out
About icons...
Unpack framework-res.apk and go to res/drawable-hdpi(-v4) folder. U got there every signle icon. Names of them are the same as mine (they must be the same to sytem recognize them via xml)
For battery:
U will see plenty of icons in res/drawable-hdpi(-v4) folder too... as many icons as percentage in Your battery U will see it when U unpack Your framework.
About XMLs U need to pull three xmls from Your cooked UOT framework from res/drawable:
-stat_sys_battery.xml
-stat_sys_battery_charge.xml
-zzz_stat_sys_battery_1.xml
Those files are responisble for whole battery indicator. Just replace them with Your cooked one.
EDIT: should be fine now :/ YEs it was updated than ... Hmmm strange ... Wait a sec.
It must work: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17626742/Programy/PNotificationMODKrzysiec.zip
Checked graphic and there`re no more graphic like on screen (they were there at start but not now).
If in some way U won`t get it to work... Install my PureBlack skin and use it ... This will DEFINITELLY change those graphic. But How i said there no way to still have those hraphic there. Will check again for sure.
THIS ONE MUST WORK!
There`s no ..... way to not work
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17626742/Programy/PNotificationMODKrzysiec.zip
LOL, I promise I took the link from your post above, put the file in my DHD, flash it in CWM, reboot and took this picture below
EDIT : I cleared my cache, DL again, and same file seems to have different amount of bytes. I try again.
Just fresh flash (16:07) on mine and it looks like this (default skin):
I don`t know what`s wrong than :/ Maybe U flash all the time the wrong file which have the same name?
See my EDIT above : same name of file => so kept in FF cache.
Cleared cache, last file a bit bigger. Flashing now.

That`s definitely reason FF tought it was the same file so didn`t downloasd it again. CHROME makes it too saomtimes.
Yep this is great now. Thank you very much !!!

Extract two framework-res.apk from my and UOT... Put them in different folders. Than pull via WinRAR /res/drawable-hdpi-v4 from both (in their folders) Than mix graphic U want from Yours into mine and but them back into framework-res.apk of mine ... U don`t have to sign anything. After mixing put "new" frameowrk-res.apk into my zip and viola!
Of course i`m talking about statusbar icons only because if U change whole folder U won`t get effect like on screen U must see te structure of drawable-hdpi
If U like my battery animation do not change xmls i mentioned earlier If U don`t like it change them from Your UOT framework
PS. Now U understand HOW I DID THE TRICK with carbon background in my mod

Making this thread for people that are trying to do some subtle self theming on their own, without a ROM. (There really isn't a whole lot of themed ROMS out anyways, monsteRom is the only one i think.) you can find monsterROM in the general section.
Anyways let's say you are using ninjamorph and you want to change the 3g icon on your droid 3 but can't find it. come here post what you need someone may help.

I'm experimenting with some theming, I cooked up one in the uot kitchen but not all the changes seemed to work. Some the signal bar indicator didn't change and the text colour for notification items(all other text colours changed) also the background in the pull down curtain. I found the icons, and the new icons are in there, but don't show on the phone. How do I make them the default icons? Also if anyone knows which XML sets the text colour and how I can fix the background it would be appreciated.

As for changing the icons just editing them should work. Are you using ninja morph? And what do you mean "fix the background"

Although I changed the pull down notification bar background in uot, it still has that moto blue.

So if I want to change one set of icons for another, I need to rename the new set to overwrite the old set?

Did you set dependencies on framework-res and RES_cappuccino? That should fix the missing .9's.

Hey, just a heads up, I don't think the link with instructions for hiding status icons i sent you is accurate when it comes to hiding the GPS icon. I tried it but couldn't get it to work. Also, any chance of hiding the alarm clock too?
I also noticed that the trash can for removing apps/Widgets from the desktop is ick color. I haven't found any other remnants of wrong colors, which is quite impressive for a first theme. Kudos to you my friend.

You mean the plain colored quick pop up trash can or the red android at the top?
I Skipped over all the widgets and home screen long press menus cause I never used em, i'll take a look
And as for the icons I saw that in Notepad++ couldn't find those exact instances, codes a bit different but similar, didnt wanna break anything so didn't touch yet...more research required (gotta learn some c++) but definitely am hiding alarm headphone and gps icons...
bear with me as i have literally never done any of this before and learning in between working 2 jobs leaves little time.

Simply just making the icon all transparent with no logo would simply take it away but not sure if there'd still be a space in the status bar.
There will be, tried that already. lol
I'm trying to edit the status_bar.xml to remove/change the formating of space to even allow it to be drawn there, wich was easy enough but apk tools bein stubborn, i posted my log in general HERE.
Ok, I found out why the SystemUI.apk won't recompile for you. There are two files that need to be deleted, and you need to replace one other file that is corrupted.
Decompile your SystemUI.apk. All the relevant files are in res/drawable-hdpi/ First, delete:
status_bar_close_on.png
statusbar_background.png
Those files are redundant because they have .9 versions. Then you need to delete status_bar_close_on.9.png and replace it with a file of the same name. For some reason, this file is corrupt and is screwing things up.
You can then also just drop my statusbar.xml into the res/layout/ folder.
As proof of concept, here is the status_bar_close_on.9.png from ICK and my statusbar.xml (with appropriate color and 2.6dip for the top buffer) dropped into your theme:
https://www.box.com/s/796e172de222cba000b9
I don't remember if you had the date in the statusbar the same cyan color, but after flashing the above zip, the date, usb, and debugging icons in the status bar are white.

Mmm... neither of those sound like what I have. When I long press an app on the desktop, a gray bar with a dark blue trash can slides down from the top. I'm using just the default adw theme, so it might look different for me than you.

Hey guys,
for some hours I flashed a STOCK-Rom.
Now i want to change the buttons from the status bar.
so i need a button with mobile data (activate, deactivate) and don´t need GPS and so on.
is there a mod to change this or an app for this?
i know, with UOT kitchen I can change lots of things, but not the function from buttons

There is not an easy way to do it, you must edit framework-res.apk. But you can go to google store and search for notification toggle, there is plenty of apps which support adding your custom picked options in widget form and show the widget in notification area. And then, there is a mod (for stock) which removes original toogle bar, which lets just with your custom one. Try it here . It says that it support V20O, so it should work on v20q also, but I haven`t tried it.
Edit1: Cyanogenmod let˙s you to change toggles directly on the phone.
Edit2: I saw that you are discussing about it in dev section in dj rom... Why did you even post here then...

Looks fine IMO, I recently found out tickboxes are completely white when there are dark backgrounds because of the white theme accent combined with the white tick. So that's why Sony doesn't make white theme accents.

For flip settings, you need that SystemUI.apk, and the blue accents have to remain in apps like settings because I don't think white will make it look nice so no plans for it. Sorry =)

read this, then to modify theme accent, you need to open /asset/com.sonyericsson.uxp.zip, decompile and go into the decompiled folder open /res/values/colors. Good luck, compare the colors with the stock purple accent by doing the same steps and check the color value, you can use photoshop to double check them. (It's not gonna be easy because if you use my theme as a base, you need to change some color of the switches and ticks.)

If you haven't already, I've got a patched services.jar in my thread, feel free to use. Also regarding conflicts, if you go into the smali folder of the base apk (with the wallpaper and icon) and get through to smali files, you can change the package name there by editing out craftsmanship, and putting what you want, changing the folder names to match.And in android manifest, you can change version number, so when you go to installed apps, it'll show what version is installed.
Example, in my theme folders go se/metallijim/brushed/blue, and that is what is in the smali files. Edit with notepad+
That'll definitely insure no conflicts.

Awesome thanks for the tip, yeah I recompiled the services.jar already, and downloaded yours to compare, for some reason, mine is smaller lol but still works fine since that my original clean services.jar is already smaller than your modded one. And thanks for the versioning!, I didn't know how to do it because when I tried changing it, they said that craftmanship has defined it =/

Good news!
In Android Manifest.xml in the main theme, before recompiling, just change android:versionName=1.0 to whatever version you want, then in settings, when installed it'll show the Version number! :victory:
If you want anymore help, just ask and I'll be glad to.
