Hello everybody, I've recently playing with some themes for swype. Below are some themed swype APKs (not metamorphs, these are better). I will be updating the thread with more and more so check back every once in a while. I will also gladly take suggestions/feedback.
These will NOT work in MIUI or SuperClean 2.5 as of now, planning a port for 2.5 when i have the time

*install at own risk
Install as a normal apk, if you have trouble, try these steps (may not be neccessary).
Step 1: Change input method to a different keyboard by long pressing text field.
Step 2: Drop lib file into system/lib. You can use adb or an app like root explorer for this. (This step is for precautionary measures I'm not sure if its necessary yet).
libSwypeCore.so
Step 3: Download and install apk. The download links are below. You may push apk into system/app then install if you'd like also.
Step 4: Change input method back to swype and enjoy.
note: Some steps may not be necessary, i've had success by just doing nothing but downloading and installing apk. Im just trying to make sure people get it right if it dosent work, try reinstalling/rebooting.

Ive been using the black glass swype metamorph for the captivate for a couple of months it would rock if someone could mod a blue glass theme. All captivate metamorphs work on fascinate.

hey those look really nice, great job man. Any chance you're working on/posting a revolution theme-style one? The 420's got nice green but not very work-friendly... especially in a hospital where i'm at
Medical marijuana ftw!
Awesome work! Does this require an updated swype or will the stock swype with superclean 2.4 work. You working on any other "glow" colors?

I would like to know the version of swype required as well. I've been using pink,purple and black glass metamorphs and love them. I'm glad to see your light blue, that is one I would love to try. Thanks for all your hard work!!

NO VERSION is required, this isnt a theme or metamorph. Its the whole thing into an easy to install package. itll replace the current swype
Does anyone know how to get the swype from the DJ05 (and prior) SuperDark theme/rom to work on EB01? It looks exactly like the Swype Black Glass in this thread but it has purple highlights on keypress instead of grey or whatever it is right now. That was my absolute favorite swype keyboard but it force closes on EB01 even when I tried a 'swypefix' (don't remember where I got it from) or the libcore file from this thread. I tried PMing thatdudebutch (i believe he's the SuperDark guy) a week or so ago but I never got a response. Thanks in advance.

Just for the record, SuperClean 2.x/Blackhole 4.2/EB01 Leak/EB01Leak Deodexed all run this same version of libSwypeCore.so (bit-by-bit identical), so no need to worry about that file, unless you don't have it.
Thanks for the blue theme with white trail and instructions.
I had to force stop swype in the settings-applications-manage-running menu
Then drop it into the system-app folder after renaming the original swype apk.
Question... Could you make a slightly lighter blue with a glow... It would go better with the midnight / blue steel theme also on here...
Also is it easy for you to continue your work with the new swype beta that was released?

I'm pretty sure that the files in the OP are a couple versions newer than the the current swype beta.
I'm running 2.21.63.16956, if that helps you any.
Looks sweet.

I as well am having the same issue. I am going to try and a couple of things, But everytime I try to install the keyboard, it says it is installing, then it says "application not installed.
Do these run on SC2.9+?
Ok I got mine working. I went into the /system/app folder and deleted the previous swype.apk in there, I then installed the new apk. restarted and then clicked to install. Worked like a charm. I love the red glow, just wishing there was a blue glow one. I think that would go great with a honeycomb theme I am running.

These themes are for RA ION 1.6.X ONLY!
BLACK DROID
NEW a theme by Me. Nearly entirely- i grabbed a couple of status bar icons from gchrome and a few things from Blur but nearly every app has been extensively edited by me. I call it Black Droid. All icons were taken from the Motorola Droid system dump and edited to look more uniform.
Theme includes Advanced Launcher, Edited Phone v21, edited contacts and better browser- all themed of course
It is still works in progress but i need a break for a while. Things still to do are the HTC keyboard and a couple of other things....

NEW Theme by WYSIE: Android2.0
seen in this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4914099&postcount=147
Android2.0 port. Acknowledgements in the the post linked above. A very nice port of the new Android2.0 theme on Droid.
Advanced Launcher Android2.0 Port by Wysie
Standard Launcher Android2.0 Port by Wysie
First theme to be ported is Kspec_Blur by BrandenK. This is an absolutely awesome theme. Buy brandenk a beer if you like it. Thanks to Beagz for the keyboard.
If you have a standard installation of the rom then all you have to do is drop the theme on your sd card and flash the normal way.
If you have already added the modified apps to your rom then you have to empty out the dalvik cache:
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /data/dalvik-cache
rm *.*
Phone10 versions are those with the modded phone apk.
NEW VERSION OF KSpecBLUR, now with a twist of montalbert
I have tweaked a few of the selectors- i found it hard to read the menus- just a quick change- not entirely happy with it, but thought i would offer it up. I have also been able to include the modded launcher and betterbrowser into the update package, so with this one no need for adb push etc. Thanks to Regunus for the screenshots as i was far too lazy.
MA-KSpecBlurRA-IONv1.6.2.zip
androidspin mirror : click here
Phone11BlurRA-IONv1.6.2.zip
tested and worked from a clean install.... you shouldn't have to wipe- depending on what you have already installed on there. clear dalvik-cache if you have any issues and then reinstall. flashed over old theme no worries.
gChrome by Moonspoon
For screen shots etc see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493434&highlight=gchrome

2.1GooglechromeRA1.6.2.zip
I have figured out the issues i was having and thus am giving uptrying to do anything with a black statusbar. Sorry but services.jar and statusbar.xml dont like me, nor ion.
Themes to do:
Ubuntu
?requests?
Downloading... will try later...
How do you guys make ROM? Simply explore and edit .zip file?
Is it possible to change the strange looking fluoro green clock background?
what do you want? Unfortunately we cannot change the clock colour from black with our rom. I can make it white if you want. I can make it any colour but obviously it needs to be a colour contrasting the black so you can actually see the clock...am thinking maybe a light grey... will do it tonight (10hrs from now).... this was a very quick port done late at night..
oh, I see. White text on a black status bar would look slick
Why can't you change the text colour?
I have the white text but not white clock. to change colour of clock (plus a few other things) you need to edit the services.jar, well, to be specific the .dex file within services.jar. This rom has no .dex file within the services.jar. It has a .odex file and thus cannot be edited. I can edit the colour of the notification in the status bar (date and sms notifications etc) but not the clock.
What i will do tonight is do a few framework-res.apk so then all people have to do is DL this small file and adb push it across? or would you prefer full zip files?
We just need to flash this in like we would a ROM right? I flashed the signed3 file and the phone is stuck on the HTC Magic boot screen.
hmmm.... you have the Amon_RA rom? worked perfectly for me, flashing first from my hero theme over to the first version, then to second and then to third version without wipes.... corrupt file? Bad download? Will post an md5 tonight when i get home.
Yup, using the RAV1.1. But I changed the IME to HTC CIME, would that have any effect? Do I need to do other preparatory work like clearing icons off screens?
Downloading to phone directly now and will try applying from that file.
Edit: Nope, still doesn't work =(
ok. reuploading now-
hmm....not getting why it still isn't working
maybe it doesn't like the HTC CIME in there? Did you apply the HTC CIMEinto the update.zip or install it like an app?

I applied it as an update.zip which I got from here, using the haykuro version and then removed the HTC IME as per Amon's instructions in his ROM thread. Should I try installing the IME back into my phone?
hmmm not sure what the issue is and i haven't heard of anyone else's bootlooping so it must be the CIME. Hate to say this but maybe try a wipe....
argh...ok.....weekend coming so guess can try that then.
Tried to install haykuro's cime using update.zip method. Not working as well...

Do you mean the theme is not working or the keyboard is not working? Or the keyboard is not working after applying the theme?
i mean the chinese input is not working.
I installed amon ra's rom, then this black theme and everything was fine. But tried to install the CIME but cant get it to work. Cant even select it in locale.
I installed the same CIME on other roms like jacheroski and hofo before, so it cant be my file having problem.
Anyway this black theme is very cool~ Thanks MontAlbert for porting it
I installed amon ra's rom just to install this theme
i got my cime working already.
Not sure why it works now. Yesterday i installed amon ra's rom, and then hero black theme. This morning I installed the CIME, but the cime didnt work.
So just a few mins earlier, I decided to wipe my phone and reflash all my roms. I installed amon ra's rom, black theme and cime all at the same time (didnt even reboot my phone, just flashed all 3 at recovery) and well it works now.
Not sure what happened, but im just glad i got everything working as i wanted it to be now
YOU MUST HAVE A SWYPE.APK LOCATED IN /SYSTEM/APP/ FOR THIS METAMORPH TO APPLY!
To summarize, when you type "ls /system/app" in your terminal on your phone, you should see a "Swype.apk" file located there. If not, go to the instructions right after this notice in the post.
====Theme Application Instructions============
You MUST have this file: /system/app/Swype.apk
The theme is designed to apply to Galaxy S phones where we already have a Swype.apk located there. If you are using an installed version, follow these steps to determine how to continue from here:
In Terminal type:
Code:
ls /system/app/
If you don't see a Swype.apk or a com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk listed, then type this:
Code:
ls /data/app/
If you still don't see a Swype.apk or a com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk, you're in the wrong thread
If you found that your Swype file is located in the system directory, then you are 3/4 of the way to being prepared for a metamorph theme. If this is you, but your file is named com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk, check the next step to get set up to apply the morph.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
In order for the morph to apply, the file HAS to be named Swype.apk.
So, to get to that point, do this:
In Terminal:
Code:
su
cp /system/app/com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk /system/app/Swype.apk
Now that you have the Swype.apk in your /system/app/ directory, continue on to the theme application step.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
If you are not one of the lucky ones to have Swype in your /system/app/ directory and it is in your /data/app/ directory, follow these steps to allow the file to be themed by metamorph:
In Terminal:
Code:
su
cp /data/app/com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk /system/app/Swype.apk
or
Code:
su
cp /sd-ext/app/com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk /system/app/Swype.apk
Basically, we want to get a copy of the Swype file in the /system/app/ directory, with the EXPLICIT name of Swype.apk, so that the theme will read it and apply it accordingly. Once you have done this, move onto the next step.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
APPLYING THE THEME
Now that you have a Swype.apk file in your /system/app/ directory, it's time to apply the Metamorph. If you have read this far, I'm assuming you already know how to use this application, so go through the usual steps and apply the theme, TWICE, ALWAYS TWICE!
If you have a themed Swype.apk, then you are ready for the next step, which will be replacing the normal Swype with the themed Swype.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
For those with Swype in /system/app/ :
Code:
su
mv /system/app/Swype.apk /system/app/com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk
Then Reboot.
For those with Swype in /data/app/ :
Code:
su
mv /system/app/Swype.apk /data/app/com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk
Then Reboot
==============================
Ok, in an effort to consolidate all of my threads in the Galaxy S forums, I am posting my WVGA Swype theme work here.
Most of the time I have to apply these themes twice in order for them to work correctly, so instead of getting ahead of yourself, or skipping over instructions in the OP, just APPLY THE THEME TWICE.
The images are only samples, and the on screen view is much clearer.

Also, like I noted in the OP, I was going to be posting in all galaxy s forums, which means that I will have individual threads for different phones. I will fulfill theme requests best I can for all of these, but if I have posted a requested keyboard on a thread for another phone, don't be shy, go on over to other forums and check the theme and app section, for galaxy s
Would you be able to link those threads here to save on search time? It would make cross referencing easier

I'm rooted yes. By reboot do you mean just powering off and back on or doing something to soft reset like I would have to on WinMo (I just got my Captivate and went Android on Monday)? Metamorph didn't prompt to reset. I have turned the phone off and back on. To soft reset do I pull the battery out while powered on or??? Thanks
i mean just power off and power back on
I'm having the same problem. Applied the theme and nothing has changed, even after reboot.

Tried again using naked swype theme no luck. Metamorph asks for super user permissions and runs a check on start then I open the zip and apply it says applied successfully and exits and nothing changes.

Which superuser do you have installed. I found that if I were on the newer 2.3.2.1 it would not work. The only time I was able to have metamorph zip's work was if I was on the older superuser, the one with the ninja. Dont remember which version 1.8 or something like that.

The Theme Flashed as an update.zip using the stock recovery mode or using MetaMorph.
It has been tested on I897UCJF6 and I897UCJH7. I cannot vouch that it will work on any other ROM.
A number of HTC elements have been blended while retaining a Droid “feel”. For example: It retains the android blue highlights vice the HTC Green. There really are too many changes to describe. Give it a try.
If you don’t like it, Return it back to the stock. I’ve included that too.
Note... Stock MetaMorph Revert: Due to Metamorph limitations the battery will remain 1-100%, but it will look stock (original SRE).
The Theme uses a blend of my custom graphics and source graphics from:
EVO 4G (many customized)
SRE 1-100% Battery (fully customized)
Changes are made to:
framework-res.apk
twframework-res.apk
Settings.apk
Email.apk
Gmail.apk
Mms.apk
MediaProvider.apk
Flash Installation Instructions:
Copy “HTC-Droid_v1.0.zip” or “StockJF6-JH7_Revert.zip” to the root of your internal sdcard
Rename to update.zip
Boot into recovery mode
Select "Reinstall Packages"
Wait for your phone to reboot and Enjoy
MetaMorph Installation Instructions:
Make sure you are using the latest version of MetaMorph (1.9.13 or higher).

Trying this now.
Works, and looks good.
Two problems I spotted...
1) Text in the notifications pulldown is black, not white like in the screenshot, so it's really hard to read.
2) The HTC icons are not showing up in the settings menu.
Thanks for checking it out...
On 1) Bummer... Not sure what to do about that though. The changes are to graphics only. The apk's don't mess with the font. Has your always been black? Mine has always been white.
On 2) I'll double check the apk and make sure I didn't screw something up. Although I swear I checked it.
Thanks Again
Hmm... after deleting user data the text in the notifications drawer is now white like it should be.

good deal!
Two requests. Can we get a metamorph? I'd help you if I knew how, but sadly I do not. A lot of us use cognition, and it doesn't like update.zip themes.
2, can we get some jpgs? Trying to watch that gif is hard! Lol.
Otherwise, I think it's worth a try. Would have liked a semi transparent notification drawer as well though. Minimalistic got me hooked on that.

I believe I can work up metamorphs. I used to do them, but I think they are a bit of a pain. I understand a cognition deal though. It might be better if I come up with a zip that'll work with clockwork? I'll attempt both.
You got it I'll upload the jpgs. I'd hate to hurt your eyes... LOL
Can we get a new mirror? Files are currently unavailable.

I've just check it.. it seems to be working at the moment. Megaupload does that once in a while. Usually if you give it a couple minutes it'll be back. Let me know if you are still having issues. I've added the metamorphs to the post, but the flash versions are too large.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EDIT: I'm having issues adding attachments for some reason... I'll need to try later. Hopefully its an "XDA system" thing.

Not working for me either...

That sucks... I'll work on other options, hopefully. I can't host the flash files here and XDA is not cooperating with attachments today for the metamorphs.
Maybe there is something in the air today.
Megauploads is having issues with capacity this afternoon.... hopefully it'll be up later. I don't have another answer at the moment... unless someone can host the files.
Hey I downloaded this morph and it looked pretty sick but then I decided to flash it back to stock. When i did that though, all my settings icons disappeared. Do you know how to get them back?

I've Added a Flash to Return to stock should you get bored/not like it
Looks cool. IF I get bored with the red. How would I go back to the Stock theme?

Cool. Thanks. Trying now
Will it possibly work on any of the Cogs
I know it is built for perception but is there any chance it would work on Cog V2.3b6? and is this installed using CWM?
Thanks.
this is rad, but could you remove the blue popup when something is loading and the highlight on clicking system menu options, that is horrid. possibley replace it with the one in minimalism mod by inku?
It looks clean good work! Couldn't you combine this with your other thread? LOL
how do you figure he only has 2 different colors.
This theme looks very nice, but a themed tap lockscreen and a themed power menu would be great additions.
Great work! Just curious if you could make a blue version?
Also, I don't think this was posted in October since it was posted yesterday. ;-)

You sure your flashing the right zip? Not the return to stock
Anyways, I've uploaded a file I just tested on Perception 4..... let me know how it goes....

New file works like a charm thru cwm. BTW what launcher are you using to get the custom icons at the bottom?

this would be my favorite theme, but popups and system menu still has blue highlights, so it clashes too much.

I've updated the file to change many of the colours from Blue to Red.... Some files I'm still tracking down
ah, what about the popups , the stock froyo are dark blue, and look terrible with the red. :O
Just a heads up.
I preferred the "Fly-in" transitions rather than those flipping transitions.
If I flashed DG's flyin animations though, it would over-write the red soul theme.
So I unzipped the file. unzipped framework-res.apk.
Replaced the "res/anim" folder with the "res/anim" folder of the flyin's zip.
Flashed my modded red-soul theme.
And boom, it's working.
Not sure if it messed up anything else, but so far so good. (Can anyone confirm that simply replacing "anim" folder with another is fine?)
Hey folks,
Today I played around with the SwiftKey apk and build my own ICS Theme. So far I have only tested it with my own phone and version (DHD with 200 DPI, SwiftKey X v2.2.0.121). Feel free to follow the short tutorial and enjoy the ICS experience.
Requirements:
Installed JDK
AutoSign (see attachments)
WinRAR or 7zip (untested)
SwiftKey X (tested with v2.2.0.121)
Steps:
Download the attachments
Pull the SwiftKey apk off your phone
Open the apk with WinRAR or 7zip
Copy the content of the "ICS Theme.zip" into the equivalent folders in the SwiftKey apk
Most of the files have to go into the "res" folder - Only "resources.arsc" has to go into the root folder!
Delete the "META-INF" folder inside the apk file
Sign the apk using AutoSign by copying it into the AutoSign folder and starting "sign.bat"
[*]Deinstall your previous version of SwiftKey X
Install new one
Change the theme inside the SwiftKey Properties
Enjoy, hit the thanks button and leave some feedback!
Changelog:
Code:
[B]SwiftKey X ICS Theme v1.1 (13 February 2012)[/B]
- [FIXED] Fonts
[B]SwiftKey X ICS Theme v1.0 (12 February 2012)[/B]
- Initial release
- HDPI only!
Works great thanks!

I'd add, don't delete the folders inside SwiftKey apk, just open archive each folder, then copy/paste the contents inside each one.

you're the man
After installing I can see my app themed like the 1st screenshot you've posted. It's nicer than the stock one but I'd like to have SK themed like the SECOND screenshot you've posted or anyway you should use a darker gray far keys, much similar to the one in the stock Android keyboard... that will look cool!
This better matches the ICS gray. The other one is too Bright imho.
To improve this mod, I suggest you to ad a themed "dark theme" with ICS blue replacing the Gingerbread green.... That would be REALLY appreciated, something like this posted in the VIP forums of SK.
I'll try to make it myself and see what happens.
Anyway, you did a really good work!

The second screenshot shows the popup when long pressing a key, it's actually the same theme. If you like it a bit darker, just go ahead and change "default_btn_keyboard_key_normal_numbers.9.png" as well as "default_btn_keyboard_key_normal.9.png" to your taste. Don't forget signing the apk before you copy it to your phone!
EDIT: As for the actual "dark theme" you mentioned... I'll see what i can come up with tomorrow.

well, actually I tryed to modify some of the res files, but they lose the transparency of the background after being saved with photoshop never happened this before (transparency is lost even if not modifing the file and obviously saving in png format).
Thanks for the help!
Thanks for posting this, works great.
Wonder if the theming is possible for non-HDPI devices? I couldn't get the install to work on my Galaxy S2 LTE (sgh-i727r) so I'm guessing my phone isn't HDPI..
Was it difficult for you to dev this? I'm thinking about trying to make the theme possible for non-HDPI devices if it wasn't too too complicated.
