[Theme] Tweaked Frost Remix NexTheme

I'm very new to android dev/hacking and I hope this is acceptable conduct (taking someone else's theme and putting a different spin on it) but I really liked Frost Remix NexTheme but I wanted a different battery notification icon, updated charging icons and thanks to some prodding from ludeboy, I felt the default settings text should be changed so I made my own spin on a theme which I'm posting here for your using pleasure.

Theme Frost Remix from 9/27/2010 (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788294)
Changed secondary text from baby blue to green
Replaced battery icons and updated charging icons from "D" variant of Fightspit's Super Circle Battery mod (Thanks for porting s44 - forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=791886&page=3)
As soon as a figure out how to turn this theme into a rom I will and I'll get that posted but for the time being, here I have attached the framework-res and twframework-res.
To install - copy both files to your system/framework folder and restart your phone.
****This has been tested on my phone and works fine but as always - use at your own risk but let me know if you run into any problems...and always back up your originals ******
Big Thanks to ludeboy for the request to identify what xmls to change for color mods (I'm fairly up to speed on how the theme engine works), frostman88 for the initial theme and s44 for porting over the battery mod!

Works great bud! Just installed it and love it. Any way you can make the battery indicator, wifi meter, vibrate phone "lines", and the icons from the pull down menu when selected the same green as the text? I have a green type theme going on and would love it all to match. If not its cool since I have my notification bar hidden on home screen anyways but figured I could ask. Thanks for your work.

Let me know which xml you edited. Looked through the framework and twframework, and the only xml ones I found pointed to white not that blue ****.

I'll look into that - I like the green on black and do also currently like the green thing going on. I'm going to do some more tinkering but my creative is lacking from a graphical standpoint so if anyone has great ideas - If I like them I'll look at them and either roll another flavor or build it into what I have here.

Short Answer -
framework-res.apk\res\color-hdpi\zzz_tw_secondary_text_sub.xml
framework-res.apk\res\color\zzz_tw_secondary_text_sub.xml
(I think the first file is the only file that actually had to be modified but the second file was a few steps of color different from the first so I just modified both of them)
Long Answer -
It took me a little time to get familiar with how the themeing (styles, layouts, etc) worked but I think I have a pretty good handle on this. To figure out what controlled the text color I dumped the settings.apk, identified the layouts and styles, traced the styles backwards until I worked my way back into the framework-res.apk and then located that it was pointing to the color file of zzz_tw_secondary_text_sub
I spent about 5 hours digging but now knowing the how the colors, layout and styles work I could most likely have done it in 15 minutes.

Ah right, you know I saw it pointed to a specific color, like color1, color2, color3, but I had been up for about 19 hours with 5 hours of sleep and really did not feel like trying to trace it back to whatever else apk.
So overall I had about 30 min to dig through the xmls.

Darn, I'm so peeved right now. In the time it took for you to post this up,
I went and Odin Restored my phone, re-clean deodex + aosp'ed it,
used the Black Mod theme in Metamorph,
and then applied the D Circle Battery,
and backed it up like 5 times. If i'd have seen this sooner, it would have saved me so much time

Thanks for this. I really like Frostman's theme, but I did want the circle battery indicator, and I also really like the green text.

Works good. I like the green and the battery. Thanks

I copied the battery mod into the System/framework folder, first, and it borked my wallpaper back to the underwater live wallpaper, and then I kept getting FCs when I tried to open Root Explorer again. After I restarted, I was able to get the other file in, using Root Explorer, and I was able to reset my wallpaper. Nothing big, but I thought you might like to know.

Thanks - I am guessing that could be something to do with root explorer possibly. I do not use root explorer and currently am doing all my pushes using adb. I'll look at root explorer and see if I can explain what happened (guessing maybe a dependency thing but who knows).

good day.

Theme for DG's COG-b9 and up 11/02/10 CMR flashable w/UPDATED-B2.3

UPDATED for the latest cog 2.3b3-its the last attachment(marked as 23b3) make sure you download the version that you are running or it will cause problems. Changed the circle batt in this version to the normal smooth green circle instead of the one shown. i think it matches a little better
Updated to work with Cog-2.3B-make sure you download the right one. The second attachment with 23b2 at the end is (obviously) for Cognition 2.3B2
The first attachment with no version at the end of the file name is for those who havent upgraded and are still on the older cog B9.
Im using a custom boot animation that matches this theme pretty well. It is the first one in this thread-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696193
Just got done making this theme for the captivate. This is a pretty full theme, also includes evo black bar, circle batt, and a nice notification pull down.
Its compatible with any cognition with the extended power options but the most recent 9.1.3 was the framework that was modified.
This took forever to finally finish.
Just put this on your internal SD and flash with clockwork. Will not wipe anything.
*Just fixed the icons in the power menu(airplane & silent)*
credit to DG for the rom this goes to
credit to fightspit for the circle battery
credit goes to faster3200 for a lot of the original images.

Looks nice! I'd love to try it out but I'm firmly of the belief that if it ain't broke don't fix it. I won't be messing with my phone again til something serious happens.

looks good. gonna backup and test it out

Love this man, get it working for DocRambone's v7 JPO rom too if it's possible
I like the looks of this better then any other theme so far.

Nicely done just did it to try it out worked perfectly

However, the icons on my lower bar didn't change. How do I get them to look like yours? e.g. mail, browser, apps...

did you try rebooting or anything. its really just modifying the images in framework file, all the other files(even the xml's) in the framework folder are exactly the same.
the only reason i say that is because i have 2 captivates, and every once in a while its like there stuck. sometimes its when going from wifi to 3g and sometimes its just
random and cycling airplane mode will fix it if not then a reboot does.

hey guys this is my very first time posting on this forum i have a captivate rooted and running cog 9.1.3 and just tried your theme and everything started to force close on me any idea what might have went wrong, thanks

Love the theme, one little problem, I can't see the clock, it's the same black as the status bar? Any thoughts? Should I just try reflashing?

Flashed a different theme then came back to this one, everything works great now.

works with the newest v2.3b cognition. no problems so far.

On reboot after install, phone seems to be stuck on the cognition splash screen, vibrating like something is force closing every 5 seconds or so. Any ideas? I am on cog 2.3b.

Moto I tested it on the clean rom, but I couldn't get the browser to work. I't could have just been on my side, I haven't tested it since, I just switched back to stock DL30 because of no flash on Clean.

Recent Apps in gingerbread roms

What needs to be done to enable the recent apps in the notifications pulldown of gingerbread based roms like bamf or gingeritis?
I know it has something to do with the SystemUI.apk but i don't know what to edit or replace within that apk.
Anybody got any tips?

Haven't tried it on bamf remix beta 6, but there is a patch for recent apps over at the bamf thread.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk

Not sure if all roms are like this, but I'm on gingeritis and you can just hold the home button when ever you want to see your recent apps. You don't actually have to be at your home screen to do so either.

Yes all roms are like that actually. I still like having it in the pulldown tho.

I havent narrowed it down yet but its a file in systemUI.apk

Yeah same here... if you find it before i do, please post.

Is it easier in the pulldown somehow? I just find it clutters things up and adds redundancies. Why have "recent apps" in two or three different places?

100% Agreed. I love having it in the pulldown and hate having to hold the Home button to get to the recent apps. Is it easier having it in the pulldown bar? ABSOLUTELY.
Running Gingeritis and I would love to see the option for having it in the pulldown again.

The Th3ory ROM has recent apps in the drop down... Just putting that out there
Sent using the Th3ory of Thunderbolt

I flashed the SystemUI.apk from Theory Rom to Gingeritis and it works fine... Just be sure to delete SystemUI.odex first with root explorer...
I still want to know how this works first... In Froyo it was in com.htc.resurces.apk and i altered 1 or 2 xmls with meta morph to get the recent apps back.

Should be located in SystemUI.apk in:
res/layout (or layout-hpdi-v4)
Status_bar.xml or status_bar_extended.xml.
Not sitting at home computer to tell you exactly which one.

[MOD](UPDATE 9/3/11) Quick Settings for Official GB OTA (4.06.605.2)

UPDATE 9/3/11 - I have all the extras discussed added and the layout straight (I hope). There is now just a single zip attached that should be good to go. I would rather not add more functions at this time, as there are other projects I need to finish (ROMs, Power Widgets, 6-bar signal, etc., etc...)
Hi all. In the process of creating my upcoming Magnolia ROM for the Incredible based on the new official GB update, I managed to activate the quick settings tab in the notifications pull down bar. I haven't seen this anywhere else, so I thought I'd share with everyone so we can get more ROMs cooking off the official GB update.
This is just the stock SystemUI.apk with the quick settings tab activated (including the standard "extras" like brightness and media volume) and the GPS reticle hidden. No other changes have been made. Devs feel free to grab this and mod as you wish.
Just copy the zip file to your sdcard and flash as usual. As always, please backup first, and you flash this mod entirely at your own risk. If you want things rearranged or functions added, etc., please feel free to ask your favorite dev. I need to move onto some other stuff.....
Steve

Thanks Steve!! I spent most of yesterday trying to activate them with no luck. I can't wait to see what I was missing. Great work!!
Edit: I also confirm that after flashing your zip, they're working perfectly.

Like a boss! That's awesome man, very impressive. Without having to dig through the entire apk could you let us know which xml you had to edit or how you managed to achieve this? It was so elusive for me lol.

Hey, now we've got a chance to get everybody back on Sense 1.0 roms.
I can confirm the zip works, also. Great job!

That's sick it's working, what are the stock quick settings that it activates? I can't flash at this very moment.

Dumb question I flashes this and I see nothing on the pull down?

It's the tabbed style pulldown like in Sense 2.1/3.0. Not the CM style toggles at the top of the status bar.

Nice find, wonder eBay else HTC left buried in code for devs to find.

Pull down the notification bar and touch the "quick settings" tab on the bottom right.

Edit: Jermaine beat me to the answer

I'm on McSenseless and when I pull the notification bar down there no tabs at the bottom? Hmmm
Is this because sense UI has been deleted and replaced with LauncherPro?

Yeah I might have to do some trickery to get it to work without rosie so we will see, stay tuned. But it will definitely be in my McSense rom.

You need to wipe dalvik-cache for them to work. I tested it on my rom, without rosie and it works fine.

Worked great on my custom gingersense Rom. Thanks

Can anyone tell me how to add a few quicksettings like silent, vibrate and the such, or is this something a dev needs to do? I will be going to McSense as soon as these are implemented.

Worked great, I just used UOT on the file, mixed it up with Liberation 2.0 Beta 5, a new set of battery icons, and green overscroll. Now I just need one with Brightness, Rotation Lock, and screen timeout!
Thanks for the hard work, very appreciated!

Just flashed the quick settings and they work flawlessly. Thanks a ton!! This rooted OTA is getting better and better daily.
