vlingo - Android Themes

I have been using vlingo and just wished the the wigit had a transparent back to it... is this a hard thing to do?

Not really, it's usually just a png that you need to make transparent.

How would I even find this png...

Anyone have a Black Status bar or pulldown editor?

Would really like that?
Pulldown editor?
I used a market app to change the pulldown from Verizon Wireless to B&M Services and it FC'd the phone app over and over...
So, I'm sure there needs to be some playing around b4 we see one for the Bionic

I know a few of us are working on the Ultimate Online Theme Kitchen right now getting some themes cooked up for folks.
I tested a few themes that I created and one of them was a black taskbar. I'm sure more people will have themes coming out due to bootstrap.
Actually, if need be, I can create a black taskbar, flashable zip in CWM, if you want.

Thanks, but I used the MetaMorph GB black status bar from DroidPirate and it worked. Ironically, the Bionic one from there didn't work.......
Really want to change the VZ on the pulldown and lockscreen, any ideas?

Just tried the app and no success. Usually to manually change it, it's in the eri.xml file. Could be different as I saw some other posts for Moto devices being in a different file.
To manually edit the eri.xml file:

As always, back up your device before doing this.

So I used UOT and made my notification bar black, and some new icons... But, I set up some modifications for the notification pull down window, making it black and transparent and it didn't apply. Any idea why?

Removing clock in status bar?

Anyone have a tweak to remove the clock in the status bar? I have a home widget that tells the time so it seems pointless of having one in the status bar. Not to mention it looks cleaner without the clock.
Umm yes i would like this too...any help?

I believe it is in the services.jar not 100% though

-Motorola Droid X²
-Motorola Droid Bionic
systemui.apk should be the file in Ginberbread.
How did this turn out? Anyone have a screen shot?

I would try but I like having it up there.
Versatile is correct. Its in the services.jar

I would rather the clock be there than on a home widget because i cant see my home widget while I'm doing something else on my phone like running an app or something.

so??? how do you get to services.jar???
System/framework/services.jar
Sorry, but do I remove jar, rename it, or edit it? TIA
EDIT: Nevermind, I figured it out.
Anyone have any idea on what to remove from one of the XMLs? I tried looking into them but I got lost trying to figure out which one it is to be able to remove the clock.
I will try and make a flashable zip when I get home.
Looks like someone already has Here

You could try flashing the ICS theme after flashing the Stock Deodex ROM. Literally should only take you 10minutes to do. Flashing those two went really fast. Otherwise SD or Monster ROM would be your best bet if metamorph isn't working for ya. The ones on DroidPirate weren't working to good for me, either. But the whitebread theme and the green one here seem to work great.

Word ill try the ics theme. I am already stock deodexed so hopefully itll work. Yeah i tried this one gingerbread theme and tried to metamorph that but alls it said was status bar force close. And it kept doing that over and over again. it was one that gave u the neon green notification icons at the top. It pissed me off then i rebooted and no changes applied so i gaveup on that. could you possibily send the link or thread for that ics theme?

Yep, what this guy said.
By the way, usually you're gonna get force closes at first, that's normal. But when you reboot manually it should stop.

Even with the reboot tho it still wasnt applied. i tried it like 10+ times But i appreciate your guys help

Use the UOT Kitchen and cook up whatever mods you want. I've made and flashed several so far. (Still running Stock ROM for now)

Manually Changing Icons

So I want to change a few icons. I found the location for the SMS/MMS Icon (ic_launcher_smsmms.png) so i just have to change the name of the icon file that i have to ic_launcher_smsmms.png and then put it in place of the original Icon file. Correct ?
I can't seem to find the one for the video player, there is no ic_launcher_videoplayer.png like i figured there would be. So if someone could help me find the location of that, and the email one and the app drawer launcher icon. I would greatly appreciate it.
So I renamed the icon file that i want to use, to ic_launcher_smsmms.png and tried to move it to the correct directory, but everytime i click paste, it moves it one directory back from the one i want, how do i get it to replace the current png with the new one ?
Where do you find the pngs?

Did you mean where did I find the pngs that I want to use or where on the phone did I find the PNG I am trying to replace?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but that's not the name of the icon for the sms/mms app. You'll find that icon in the actual mms.apk.
Video Player would be the same thing, you would find the icon for that in the Video Player.apk.
That is where I found that file at. In the .apk. I was told that was the right one. If not then which is?

Just use a Launcher if you're not already and long press the icon and hit replace or whatever the option is and look through your phone for the new icon you got. May, not be what you want but it's a not less of a hassle then what you're doing.
That only changes the icons in your home screen. I want them changed all around. I don't care if its a bigger hassle lol if I cared I wouldn't be asking. So can someone tell me what to do. I am thinking that I can't just change it through the phone can I. I have to dump the files on my computer. Then change the ones I want and the flash it to my phone. Am I correct ?

I've been looking at Go launcher Ex pretty simple expect for making the icons.
Well was I correct tho about how to do it. Cause I was thinking I could just edit the icons I want in the zip of your ics theme that I have and then just reflash the theme.

If i understand correctly, in order to change the icons, you'd have to edit each individual apk. For instance, if you want to change the icon for facebook you have to edit facebook.apk but if there is an update for it, then you have to edit the apk again.
Thats why im looking into making a theme for adw launcher. That way no matter how many times an app is updated, it will display the themed icon. I chose adw since its the launcher that comes with GingerVolt.
Sent from my VS910 4G using Tapatalk
so I was right about how to do it. But like you said I would have to re do it everytime the app gets updated. So your idea on making an adw icon pack. Would that change the icons in the app drawer too. Not just the ones in the launcher and on the homescreen?

That looks like my phone dialer from cyan-volt, but shouldn't be coming up black.. never has before. Did you change something on your own? It is in the contacts.apk, think in fwr-res/values/colors.xml
Found the delete icon, but still need to do the backgrounds for those two buttons... avoiding the .9's at the moment, and still need to change the some text colors. I'm leaving the gray background behind the buttons just because of the issues with the bottom bar, and it really doesn't look too bad.
