Seriously, you can hide the dock bar, then get one of those widgets that do all you want, be creative...
spark from hiplogic inc is rather different
THIS THEME WORKS Perfect.. looks WAY better then stock...
as a result i will now be doing a lot of themeing for our devices... so let me know what you guys want...
EDIT: framework-res.apk DOWNLOAD ADDDED AT BOTTOM OF POST
THIS IS STILL BETA... NOT ALL GRAPHICS ARE FINISHED...
STILL NEED TO DO draw9patch...
the only mods i have done are graphic skkinning... anywhere i saw turqouise i turned it cyan blue...
the battery icon when normally green is now blue...
the background of the notification area is dark.. thinking of turning it black...
the turqouise toggles in the notification are are now cyan blue...
any where there is a button press is changed from turquiose to cyan blue
this is what it should look like...
compared to old style...

I just noticed.... with my framework ... the carrier name isn't displaying.... I assume its a glitch.... but lets call it afeature haha

Haha definitely a feature. I'm going to give your framework a try when I get home. Got to research android though as this is my first android phone switching from the iPhone. I haven't used XDA since back in the days of WM 6.5.
Never mind the carrier is there... I have XML coding. Experience but does anybody know how to edit XML binary iN android..

Tough call, that could potentially be really nice... but could also easily be garish and cheap looking if the wrong colors are used. Maybe if the two colors are very similar (like navy and darkish blue) or borrow from the same colors already on the screen (like the cyan blue of the icons and a transparent dark grey from the notification bar)? I think that could potentially be good, but it's hard to picture in my head.
Thanks for snazzier look!

I know what you mean... I had this mod started ages before we had a way to make backups and restore... I hate the ui sooo much... haha... btw.... in my screenshots u see the matching dock and icons... I can throw you those files if you want it all to match... its with launcher pro...

That would be awesome. I should be able to use the icons with adw right? This is my first Android device, after switching from the iPhone. It feels great to be able to customize a device again. I used to be on XDA back in the days of WM 6.5.

Ah, I understand. IMHO you can't really go wrong. I'd probably pick solid black because I think it makes the scroll smoother, but the transparent looks nicer. The stock isn't my favorite but it doesn't really bother me too much either.
Your LP icons look nice with your tweaks. May I also have those files?

Using a file explorer that lets you mount and unmount.. copy the framework-res.apk into system/app and replace and remount. Then reboot
Does this work on v20p?

I haven't tried. But if the stock framework hasn't changed much from froyo to gb then it might.

You'll have to be more specific in what you are looking for or trying to accomplish...
They are included in tablet tweaks. There's a thread around here somewhere.

Another ROM? as in not CM7? or not on a Nook or tablet? or the graphic files?
If it's not CM7 then you'll have to look at something like "button savior", if it's CM7 but just not a tablet you should be able to take the framework-res.apk from a Nook CM7 build and use that on your phone, if you want the graphic files I believe that are in the framework-res.apk or the systemui.apk
I was wanting to see how they would work with MIUI on the NC. I hate button savior.

Guys, no off-topic please..
Bump bump, anyone with some theming skills? It shouldn't bee too difficult to make a simple AOSP theme, I think.
its actually difficult coz we need to kill the sony theme engine, and find the sony lines in framework and rewrite those

Is this why we have bootloops when flashing a modified framework-res.apk?
My response to the request was going to be simply that as far as I know, nobody has managed to recompile framework-res without causing bootloops, and until that's resolved, we're not going to see much real theming for T/V. Without the option to edit 9.png's and xml's, there's no way to modify - among other things - popups, most buttons, tabs, color values, text styles, etc. I've mentioned this issue in the apktool thread but gotten no response, I guess the next thing I'll do is report it as an issue on their website.
Sent from my LT25i using xda premium
There are quite a few things that can be modified without touching framework-res, like nav bar buttons (which has been done already), background image/color and status bar things like text color, center clock, toggle buttons. Also, we could modify one of the stock Sony themes to get a little closer. It wouldn't be real AOSP but I think we can get pretty close. Let me know if this is acceptable and I'll give it a try.

THAT would be great. Would also be great if you can remove the silver bar on the dock, or maybe guide me to the right direction.
For the past two days I've tried making the status bar and the navigation bar to fully transparent, but no luck. Modifying framework-res.apk causes bootloops and systemui crash. >.>
Im not knowledgeable to the point to avoid this yet
I shouldn't have said "no real theming", because not only is that being too negative and a bit over-dramatic, but it takes away from the work that people have already done and are doing now. So apologies for that!
And sorry for the OT.

Removing the dock bar is easy but it's a little too late here to go into that now. Modifying framework-res is a no-go, at least not in the easy re/decompile way.
I've made a little package with my modifications. I know some people have already done bits of this but it felt better doing it all in one go from scratch. All files are taken from galaxy nexus and nexus 4 factory images (jzo54k and jdq39). This has small nav bar buttons from recoba23 and lidroid power widget by peetr_, modified a bit by me. Made a custom theme to better fit the jelly bean blue color and wallpaper + lockscreen background. Replaced the app background with just plain black. Nexus bootanimation. Added AOSP launcher. You can get the AOSP lockscreen by renaming/deleting UxpNxtLockscreen.apk but it doesn't look right, there was some kind of weird bar at the bottom
Let me know what you think could be better or feel free to customize it. Maybe we should start a new thread or change the title because it's not really a request anymore :laugh:
