Anybody please help

seems hard to get help here im new to the tab

And you think "How do i" is a descriptive topic title??
And you guys wonder why you dont get answered, most people just bypass such topics because if the creator cant be bothered to properly title a topic then why should anybody be bothered to read?

It's down to the application to expose itself (fnarr ) to the sharing functionality of the OS. You can't simply add something to the list - the app wouldn't know what the hell to do with the information.

Is there a way to dissect the app and create it to expose itself

The application has to 1) register an intent in its manifest
Code:
...
<activity android:name=".sampleTextActivity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.send"/>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
then in the sampleTextActivity they have to handle the extras that the sending application will .putExtras() when calling the intent
like
Code:
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.sampleLayout);
Intent intent=getIntent();
Bundle extras=intent.getExtras();
String action=intent.getAction();
if(Intent.ACTION_SEND.equals(action))
{
//handle the extras and like the Intent.EXTRA_STREAM
//populate appropriate fields in R.layout.sampleLayout
}
so basically without the full source code, you can't add it. but the devs could easily enough - email them.

i would PM sonny, jabawalkee, or the guy tha makes dark ginger theme. They are all pretty knowledgeable about these things and is probably your best bet!

Looks like the notification bar from cyanogenMod 7 (themed). As far as editing the systemui.apk, I'd.l talk to DreamsForgotten (and read his threads in this section).
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087858

Text editing would be in xml's for that

[Mod][27/3/12]FusionMod for AOKP (NS GSM ONLY)

As many of you experiencing, many mods cannot exist together and no one made and share it.
The developers like evilisto teach you how to fish and give you small fishes but not a big fish since his mods can produce lots of different combinations
Then I'm going to share the stuff I made and using
* It's not a complete theme but addons
* If you're using stock theme, you're forced to theme your SystemUI and Framework-res, the stock theme version may come(Do anyone really want it?)
* If you're using AMOLED Blue theme, you flash this and get the mods without losing the theme
v1: (27/3/2012)
* SystemUI, Framework-res, Framework base on AOKP B28

　　* androidaddingBottom="0.0dip"
　　* android:layout_width="320.0dip"
　* \framework-res\res\values\dimens.xml
　　* <dimen name="thumbnail_width">320.0dip</dimen>
Initial release: (23/3/2012) (For AOKP B28/Androxide 1.2.1)
* Honeycomb style (mix of v1 and v2) lockscreen by evilisto
* SystemUI, Framework-res, Framework base on Androxide 1.2.1 by HAKA
* Larger horizontal app switcher by HAKA

You may have a try on CedIME which is perfect to me

really nice mashup, also glad you like amoled blue theme but you should ask before using other's work.
there's a disclaimer in decalex's and my threads about ripping off ab theme images, please read it.

I agree i think you should work alongside decalex and etoy. You dont need to create a new thread for this because it will overcome the original amoled blue because of this wonderful mods that you added.

I didn't say anything is made by me but just combining them
I start the thread because I don't want to post a bundled stuff many times in different threads as I won't make different combinations
Maybe I'm just kid below 20 so I don't know much
So I'm considering remove AB theme and make my own theme

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23426199&postcount=159
let me explain (well,hope so). i'm not jealous of my theme..it's just a theme at the end. i'm happy seeing how many people like it, didn't ever expect that success. what i don't like is that people thinks it's free,opensource,blabla and they can do whatever they want with it. me and decalex clearly posted to contact us BEFORE using our work. i contacted sonnysekhon asking if he gladly allowed me to use his Lucid-style widget image file in my theme. i think he'll not be happy to see it used by other people without his permission. i asked travp624 if he allow me to use his inverted apps in my theme, and so on. if you contacted me (or decalex) and asked about that, i'd probably allowed you to use the stuff. just explain me what's the point in making a separated theme with "just" evilisto's mods (which are awesome, indeed) instead of just proposing to add those mods to AB theme. otherwise, (don't want to be rude here,really) why don't you just start your own theme? we'd be happy to help you out with it, no problems at all! sharing everybody's knowledge is the fundamental of this forum imho.

Google makes android, gives it as opensource. Some guys make chromium, gives it as opensource and google just takes it and make google chrome. You take android files, change gama and brightness, put your name on it and want some "deserved kisses in the a**"? Did you ask google devs to change their files? Cmon man, this guy gave all the credit to you in the first post. He could ask you, but he didn't, why are you making such a big deal out of it?

Taking requests for Android Jaku icons!

Hello everyone, many of you may know of the beautiful Jaku iOS theme. I recently started using Photoshop and making custom icons and as of today I'm an artist for their repo of free user made icons (http://jakurepo.com/index.php). Being one of the few (if not the only) uploader for the repo that's an Android user I figured I'd make a post here.
So feel free to check out the few icons I've uploaded (http://jakurepo.com/index.php?artist=E34) and if you have any requests let me know!
EDIT: Just wanted to give full credit to William Szilveszter for creating this amazing theme, http://www.szilveszter.ca/
EDIT 2: If you like my icons please don't hesitate to post some screenshots, I'd love to see them!
For those of you that aren't sure what I'm talking about, some screenshots:

REMINDER: BEFORE POSTING REQUESTS, SEARCH FOR THEM ON THE REPO, THERE'S A HIGH POSSIBILITY SOMEONE HAS ALREADY MADE AN ICON FOR THE APP.​

its funny how these icons never get old.
my requests are:
1. Ashford University Mobile
2. an Air Jordan 4 bred icon
3. A Samsung Galaxy S III icon
4. Plague Inc icon.

For Plague Inc. there's these two: http://jakurepo.com/index.php?q=plague&x=0&y=0 , let me know if you're looking for something different.

Bevel
Thanks for your dedication.
You're being very helpful with the community
And I need to say that your icons are very promising. Can't beleve you're only beginning at this stuff.
Just please don't pack the already existing Jaku icons of the repo as a theme
I mean, they already are there and available to anyone, so no need to package a whole .apk off Jakurepo.com's contributions. As a means to pay respect to William Szilveszter's (szilveszter.ca/news/jaku-android/) word in regard to porting Jaku to Android. And for unfair competition sake.
Oh, and one thing about the bevel. The pattern (when there's one) is meant to extend from the top face of Jaku icons over the bevel as if the icon was sliced off a part and the pattern is actually deep underneath the icon's surface.
Like this attached image instead of your XDA icon...
:angel: :good:

No problem and thanks again man I enjoy using Photoshop and it's the least I could do for XDA since the community here has helped me so much since my obsession with Android began.
And I wasn't planning on taking anything I didn't make off the repo and putting it in an apk/zip/etc so no need to worry, most I'll do is make a .zip with my stuff and throw it up on DeviantArt. But that probably won't be for a while.
Your attachment doesn't show though lol, and yeah I realized I messed up the XDA icon and fixed it earlier, just forgot to change it on my phone haha.
EDIT: Now I see it, I need some more practice with that, for some reason when I try that it comes out looking really pixelated and bad

Basically, you need to duplicate the one-pixel high last row from the image above the bevel and stretch it over the six-pixels high bevel for it to look as intended.

If you're talking about an apk for a launcher theme you would need to decompile the apk and put the icons in. You'd probably be better off just manually changing the icons with an aftermarket launcher.
