Hi All, thought I would publish my first effort at a WAD2 theme. My main aim after using other peoples themes was to make one that is 'thumb friendly' and real simple to use. It has 3 menu pages with large graphical buttons, and a 'home' screen with shortcuts to txt, email and call list. this theme is 99% portrait, how ever on my touch pro 2 if i flip the keyboard and go to landscape i do have a very basic black home screen with the 3 shortcuts. If people like the theme and would like to produce their own icons, let me know and I can post up some photoshop templates.
Installation
Install the files to your normal theme directory and search for new themes, then select Angularz as your portrait and/or landscape theme. Please make sure you install the fonts prior to use, as it may not the clock etc correctly.
Fonts
I use helvetica Neue fonts in the theme and have supplied these in the zip file. I also have replaced my system font with helvetica as it looks nicer, but I will leave that down to you. If you just want to use the fonts for WAD only, place the 3 helvetica fonts in your windows folder (with the rest of the system fonts)
I think I have packaged up all the correct bits (if not please let me know!!)
PLEASE CAN A MOD ALLOW ME TO SHARE LINKS!!
This looks neat. Nice docks.
good day.
it's just WOW!!
Thankyou!, I just wanted something simple but visually nice to look at, and this is the end result!
I find that if you increase the display cache size (through altering the windows registry) it does make it scroll through pages a little smoother.
thatbastard,
I'm using your theme and IMO, it is a simple but gorgeus. However, I have a problem with all notifiers. They are not appeared when I have some unread sms or missed calls. Do you have any suggestions? My device is Omnia i8000.
hi Laruku
You can try going to author mode, then page - show notifiers. Go to the properties once held down on the notifier and have a look through there. Mine is set on 'notifier type - unread sms' etc. by default this should work, however I dont know how different it would be on an omia. have a look in there and see if anything has changed.
how do you get out of author mode
taphold at any page and you'll get yourself the popup menu, i forgot which is the get out of author mode menu,,, but it is there,,,
@thatbastard,
would you mind sharing the images? the home wallpaper is really nice.
new version of WAD converts all the images folder into .wadesktop extension,,, which prevents me for extracting the images,
thx
here's my version
hello everybody !
Here's MY angularz, i hope you'll like this.
Koralii
you can see this on Youtube : v=GXtEynNZaf4 (sorry but i'm new here and can't post the shortcut.
Great Work
Great to see an original piece of work. i will give this a shot
Thanks for adding a bit of originality to my blackstone
Mark
Looks great !!!
wow, great theme
i think i'll make some personal changes and it'd be perfect for my daily use, YO~
DOOD JOB!!
Really nice. It's a shame, imo, that windows phone7 doesn't look more like this. My only comment would be that it might look better to have the text in panels up and to the right a few pixels, and have the voicemail icon transparent. (I can only comment on the screenshot as I don't have VAD2 installed on my device...
Thought it would be handy to have a volume icon on the home screen...

Hi all, thanks for checking out my theme, Ive glad youve all liked it. Unfortunately I dont have wisbar installed anymore (and Ive had a lot goin on recently) so will not be continuing anymore projects but I thought I would share the remaining files I have. You can continue modding from my theme as freely as you like, as long as you mention it was based on my creation

Sure, there should be a zip file with ALL the angularz images. Ive also included a new homescreen which is a gloss black version (was going to be called Mono Tonez) but it will not be finished.
Enjoy!
good looking theme
willing to release a WQVGA version?
I´m new user of wad and i don´t know how to install this theme. I´ve installed mortscript and wad, and theme in lakerbridge/themes, and fonts in windows/start menu/programs fonts folder, but I don´t know where install angularz.wadesktop
Thanks a lot of.
Uncle Google says:
1. Using ActiveSync, copy the .wadesktop file to any location on your device.
2. From your device, use File Explorer to navigate to the .wadesktop file you just placed there, then tap on it to launch it.
3. You will be prompted as to a location to place the extracted files. Choose any location you wish (I personally find it helpful to have a Themes folder set up in advance).
4. Once the files are extracted, open WisBar Advance Desktop (if it's not open already), tap and hold on the screen, then tap Change Theme.
5. Now tap Menu > Scan for Themes. When the scanning process is complete, the theme you just installed should appear on the list.
6. Tap the theme, then tap Menu. Choose the appropriate menu option for setting as portrait or landscape. Please note that theme files are usually designed for one orientation or the other.
7. Tap Apply and you're done.
This should get you set up.
Thank you, uncle...
I´ll try.
How does one go about changing the text of certain things like the area in the dropdown notification and incorporating it into the theme?
Taking an existing theme and editing the files was cake.
However...
I ran into issues when i tried to add png icons the theme did not come with.
saved as the official name of the apk's icon.... com.xxxx.xxxx-x.png and placed it in the icons folder of the zipped theme.
wouldn't even display the theme in theme manager until i deleted any extra files I tried to add.
I made a theme. Open for criticism. It's my first time though, be gentle ....

You have to create a folder called icon. Your other icons for non stock programs go there.
your folders from (lets call it )the root of your zip file should read
com.android.launcher
com.android.mms (if you are changing the messaging theme)
framework
icon
preview
descriptions.xml
Also join miui-dev and click on themes, there is a guide there

The pre-existing theme already had an icon folder, to which i did place the files into, and labeled correctly. just wouldn't allow the theme to display afterwards
I want to preface this by saying that I am in no way, shape or form a graphic artist. I've picked up a bunch of techniques out of necessity over the last 15 years of being a Web developer but most of my techniques can be done faster and more efficiently by a qualified graphic artist. That said, I've managed to produce some pretty decent stuff over the years considering I don't really have a clue. So use this guide to help you put your graphics knowledge to work by creating some amazing themes.
I created a theme for GO Launcher EX called "Sepia Theme for GO Launcher EX" (shameless plug: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.aac.go.sepia) and figured I'd share my experiences on how I created it. It took me three nights to create the theme above but I imagine if I was an actual graphic artist and wasn't learning as I did it I could have done it in a day (I'm also counting testing time and time to package and post to the Market). Anyway, here's how I did and how you can too.
Attached to this post is an Android Eclipse project that you can use as a template. I originally created the project using the GO Dev Team's Theme Factory which actually created the project (Link: Theme Factory) and was the base for the Eclipse project in this post. I found that while a good start, the Theme Factory did not allow for certain code customizations (such as adding multiple wallpapers and preview graphics) as well as not allowing for custom namespaces which is really needed to make the theme your own. So, after using the Theme Factory to create the initial Android code, I imported it into Eclipse, stripped out all the garbage and cleaned it up a bit. All the graphics used are the default ones added by the Theme Factory so you will want to change them in your own theme. Here are some of the things you will want to customize when making your own theme (these are the absolute basics and if you are a graphic artist you will have no trouble digging in and customizing every other aspect). I highly recommend you download and open the Theme Factory and at least check it out. It's very rough but will clue you in to what graphics you should be customizing to create a theme. This assumes that you know how to use Eclipse and if you don't, that is beyond what I'm willing to discuss here. There are plenty of places to read up on that.
Icons
To add icons to the theme there are several steps you will need to take. First, create your icons. Once you have the icons you want for your theme you will want to add them to your project. Icons are placed in the GOThemeTemplate/res/drawable-hdpi. Once added there, you will need to reference them in two .xml files in Eclipse. Open GOThemeTemplate/assets/drawable.xml. Using the name of the png file you just added to the drawable-hdpi folder (do NOT add the ".png"), add a new <item> element for each. You will see a bunch listed there as examples for you but it will be in the form of
HTML:
<item drawable="png_name" />
Next, add a corresponding line to the GOThemeTemplate/assets/appfilter.xml file. It will be in the following format
HTML:
<item component="ComponentInfo{com.package.name/com.package.name.LaunchActivity}" drawable="png_name"/>
The tricky part here is the component attribute. In order to enter the correct information for the brackets after ComponentInfo, you will need to find the correct package name for the app that the icon represents and the default activity that is launched when the icon is clicked. While this could be a ridiculously tedious process, the is a wonderful Web site that does all the work for you. Simply visit http://activities.droidicon.com and enter the app's name in the search box. At the time of this writing they have cataloged nearly 110,000 apps with they package names, main activity, icon and the proper format for three popular launchers' themes (ADW, Launcher Pro and GO Launcher EX). So once you have the proper package name and activity for the app whose icon you wish to replace (it is the last option and it even selects the text when you click it saving you one step), paste it between the brackets. Finally, in the drawable attribute, add the name of the png for the icon as you did in the drawable.xml file (again, do not add the ".png").
The theme template attached to this post contains the correct <item> tags for over 200 icons (sorry, icons not included, that's your job). There are many icons included as examples but only those created with the Theme Factory.
The last thing you will need to deal with for the icons is the default icon back. In the GOThemeTemplate/res/drawable-hdpi folder you will find a file called iconback.png. This is the icon that will be placed behind all icons on the device that do not have a specific icon created for it. All icons will be scaled to fit atop this icon. The default is 70% of the icon's size. This can be changed in the appfilter.xml file in the <scale> tag at the top of the file. It looks like this: <scale factor="0.7"/>. Just change the factor attribute (1 being the actual size). You can change the name of the icon back image using the <iconback> tag in the appfilter.xml. There is also a transparent image that goes atop both icons called iconupon which can be changed using the <iconupon> tag. This creates an illusion that the three icons are one.
Theme Configuration
When users click Menu > Themes in GO Launcher EX they will be presented with a graphical representation of all the themes currently installed on their device. You want them to find your theme too. You will be working with a file name GOThemeTemplate/assets/themecfg.xml and there are a few images you will need to create and they are all to be placed in the GOThemeTemplate/res/drawable-hdpi folder.
A thumbnail preview image exactly 110x180 in png format. You can view the image I left from my theme as an example. It's themepreview.png and the name of this image is defined <preview> tag (you can change this if you wish).
One or more screenshots also in PNG format that are placed in the drawable-hdpi folder as well. These are also defined in the <preview> tag and and I have left three example screenshots as well.
Each drawable above is defined in the <preview> tag with attributes labeled img1, img2, img3, etc.
Finally, when users are previewing your theme you can provide them additional information such as the theme's name, your Web address and contact information. This is done in the GOThemeTemplate/res/values/themeinfo.xml file. There are two <string> elements with name attributes for defining the theme's name (as displayed on the theme chooser screen, not in the Market) and theme's information.
Wallpapers
To add wallpapers to your theme, you will need to modify at least one file (two if you want to change the name of your default wallpaper). You will need to edit the GOThemeTemplate/res/values/array.xml file. Open this file and edit the <string-array> element with the name attribute of <string-array name="wallpaperlist">. You will add an item element for every wallpaper you wish to add. For example, let's assume you have three wallpapers with following names:
wallpaper_sand.jpg
wallpaper_barrel.jpg
wallpaper_cloud.jpg
You would place these three wallpapers in the GOThemeTemplate/res/drawable-hdpi folder and then add three <item> elements to the XML file like this.
HTML:
<item>wallpaper_sand</item>
<item>wallpaper_barrel</item>
<item>wallpaper_cloud</item>
To define which wallpaper loads as the default wallpaper when the theme is applied, edit the Wallpaper attribute of the <Desk> element in GOThemeTemplate/assets/desk.xml.
Before users can a wallpaper other than the default wallpaper you will need to add thumbnails of the wallpapers. To do this, create thumbnail images in PNG format with dimensions of 170x142. Save them using the same name as the JPGs but add "_thumb" to the end. So, wallpaper_sand.jpg becomes wallpaper_sand_thumb.png.
Your Theme's Name
To name your app as it will appear in the app drawer, open GOThemeTemplate/res/values/strings.xml and edit the <string> element with the name attribute of "app_name."
Your Theme's Icon
To change the icon for your them, change the icon.png in the GOThemeTemplate/res/drawable-hdpi folder.
Package Name
You will need to customize the package name for publication in the Android Market. This name must be unique. Frankly, if you are actually using Eclipse and are editing these file then you should already be familiar with this. You will need to open the GOThemeTemplate/AndroidManifest.xml file and edit the "package" attribute in the <manifest> element.
Further Customizations
This tutorial really gives you a very basic overview on adding icons and wallpapers to your theme and how to get the basics accomplished. To really make your theme a theme and to stand out and be unique, there are dozens of other PNGs that you will need to edit, each being responsible for a specific UI element. For example, to add your own folder icon, edit the GOThemeTemplate/res/drawable-hdpi/folderback.png image. You will have to figure out what each icon does and how you can best edit them. The Theme Factory is an extremely useful tool for this and I highly recommend that you use that program alongside this tutorial and Eclipse project when creating your theme. The Theme Factory will guide you image by image and show you previews of what each does. However, I found that that's about the only things it's good for. When compiling my theme I found that Eclipse was the most efficient method. As mentioned above, multiple wallpapers and screen previews are not possible as of yet using the Theme Factory so you will need to manually edit the files anyway. I suggest starting with this project as it is really just a cleaned up version of what the Theme Factory produces and to use the Theme Factory as your images guide.
Download Template
You can download the Eclipse project theme template at the end of this post.
I hope that this guide helps you and if you have any questions, feel free to post it here. I can't promise that I'll answer (I'm not on here as much as I used to be) but my hope is that this becomes a good spot for theme creation discussion.

Thanks for your post. I'm just thinking about making my first theme for Android in general So, I think I'll have a try with Go Launcher EX...
Thank You for your great tutorial. I am a great fan of MIUI ROM, but now I am on CM9 ICS while waiting from official MIUI ROM for Galaxy S. I managed to tweak a theme for Go Launcher based of MIUI, and I am very happy with this theme. The only problem for me is how to add more icons on the theme. What I did was to edit res\values\public.xml and change whatever app available with my own. For example, from:
Code:
<public type="drawable" name="weibo" id="0x7f020049" />
to:
Code:
<public type="drawable" name="evernote" id="0x7f020049" />
The question is how add new id (like id="0x7f020049")?
Awesome job!!

Those look like they came from smali file. I can't help with editing those. You shouldn't have to do that to build a theme. The source is available attached to this post. You can technically recreate/modify any theme from that.
Thank you very much for sharing this..
I have gotten everything to work except the menu background, menu text color, menu icons & menu dividers (pretty much everything about the menu).
I saw those options in desk.xml and I tried editing them but for some reason, the changes didn't take.
Also, couldn't change the folder background even though I changed the necessary images in drawable-hdpi.
Please let me know if you were able to change those things.
Thanks in advance.
This may be a dumb question, but when I have the files modified as stated above, how do I turn this into an apk for loading into GO launcher?
I'm receiving the "error parsing package" when I change the name in Astro.
Cool..

Already changed the png images and inverted the text color in desk.xml but the changes don't take effect.
Also experiencing a lot of lag when using the icon picker feature. The list stops displaying icons towards the end as well.

Package name problem~
4 May 2012 >> I solved this problem by myself, Thank you
Thank you for your post!
NOW I am trying to make my own theme and release it on the Android Market.
But it overwrite over and over when testing on my phone.
I think it should not overwrite on the other theme, but it does all the time.
I also had changed 'package name' on 'Manifest' file, but same problem happened.
It just kept overwriting on the other theme that I made and installed on the phone.
Thank you
I'm looking for some Eclipse help. I load my theme in Eclipse and have had no probs exporting it and getting it to my tablet. All of a sudden now, when I change some program icons and rebuild the apk, the old icons are still being built, not the ones I changed in the HDPI folder. I looked through Eclipse to see if there was a way to clean temp files or cache, but don't know enough about the program to fix this. Any help would be appreciated.
Create a theme?
Woghh... That's what I want..
And this thread really helped me
Thx bro
Hello everyone!
I've decided to start a new thread here, in the Android Themes forum, to teach you how to create your own icons missing in the biggest icons pack ever, called "Vexillum Project" for the MIUI ROM, that contains over 1300 .png files and also to contribute to expand it!
Even if there are hundreds of icons, it may happen that you use apps that don't have the right icon yet. So i've opened this thread where i'm gonna write, step by step, what you gotta do if you want to create them.
I know that there is already a guide on the Vexillum project thread but i found it a little bit confusing and to make it clear i rewrite the guide as good as i can to help you.
Once you have done your icons i pray you to post them on the original thread, so they would be put in the next release of the pack and everyone would enjoy them.
So, i won't write only the metod to create icons and put them in the pack yourself, i wanna collect all the icons developers (designers) in this thread of the Vexillum Project and everyone who would like to become one of them. This would help all the people that have icons requests and, of course, they aren't considered for the tens of post that everyday invade the original thread.
However, people the have requests should write the name of the app they need next to the market link to speed the process of creating.
<<EVERY ICONS DESIGNER CAN WRITE A POST WITH AT LEAST 2 ICONS AND I'LL INSERT THEM IN THE DESIGNER LIST IN THE FIRST POST>>
HOW TO CREATE AN ICON
1. save the model icon to your PC from the net
(model icon = is picture that contains the symbol or the name of the app)
2. download the public template from here
(public template = is a .psd file that, once opened with photoshop, would help you to cut out the icon so it can fit with the other theme's icons)
3. open the public template file with photoshop
4. open your model icon (source file) with photoshop
5. select the parts of the model icons that you want to keep (with "Magic Wand Tool" or other select metods)
6. right click (don't deselect) and choose "select inverse"
7. click the "canc" button on your keyboard and all the parts you don't need will be deleted
8. select the "crop tool" on the left
9. on the top, in "width" write "80 px" and in "height" write "80 px"
10. crop the icon using "maiusc" (on the keyboard) to do a squared crop then click the "V" on the top to confirm
11. select "rectangular marquee tool" on the left
12. select all the icon and copy it
13. move to the public template tab you opened before and "paste" the icon
14. choose the background color just keeping visible it (click on the little square on the left of the color layer) on the right-bottom layers
15. select the "sample" layer (with a green cicle) then right click
16. select "copy layer style"
17. select "layer 1" (where you paste your icon) and right click
18. select "paste layer style"
19. select "file" on the top-left then "save for web & devices"
20. make sure that on the top-right "PNG-24" is insert
21. save it to your PC and public it on the original thread or below
(if you do more then 2 icons, please make a .zip file when you post them)

Hey everyone,
I've decided to share my personal icon pack. I've personally designed each icon using Inkscape and built the apk.
I've made it because I was annoyed by other icon packs always lacking some icons that I wanted.
Many icons (like those of google apps) look like the originals, just without the shadows.
My icon pack doesn't have many icons (about 100). The interesting thing is that I'm sharing also the source code to build the .apk (using Eclipse) and the .svg files to modify the existing icons/create new ones (using Inkscape), so that you can create your own personal icon pack.
The icons are for FHD screens, so 192x192. You can make them larger by exporting again the .svg files.
Atteched below you can file the apk file, the .zip source and some examples.
You can reuse and modify this app, just give me credit.
No requests please: I uploaded the source of the apk file and the icon svg files. If you want to add an icon just do it on your own.
Suggestion: to add a new icon you have to modify appfilter.xml, drawable.xml, iconpack.xml, add the icon in the res folder and then compile.

res/values/bools.xml [I see those are some booleans in there, but, when are they ever used?]
res/values/colors.xml [Those state the theme colours, but, where's the style used?]
res/values/dimens [No idea what this folder does]
res/values/styles.xml [Its stating the themes of the app, but, again, are those used anywhere?]
Assets:
assets/app_func_theme.xml [What does this file do?]
assets/desk.xml [What does this file do?]
assets/themecfg.xml [What does this file do?]
Drawable:
res/drawable/grid_selector.xml [I guess, it determines how the list of icons is presented, but, it doesn't work in all launchers, right? I mean, in Nova launcher, I didn't get any grid, I got one in ADW though.]
res/drawable/square_over.xml [It's used in the grid_selector.xml file, but, how's it affecting the app in any way?]
I don't intend to be mean or offensive, but, I am a very newbie Android developer and thus, probably didn't understand what these files are doing. It'd be great if you can clear this out for me.
Once again, thanks a lot for the source code!
