Gingerbread based theme for Ascend and MDPI & HDPI devices Update [1/10]

Update 1/10 Minor update to some, maybe major to others, I've made some changes to the status bar pull down for Ascend users, I've changed the main text to be black, I'm still not completely happy with it, so i'll keep tweaking... Also, I've added support for HDPI devices in the Gingerbread3.5.zip, in general the theme should work on a wider variety of devices.

}
Update 1/9 The theme is pretty much complete
In order for Ascend users to get the white clock you need to download buildprop and replace the one under your system folder with it. You'll have to be rooted and use a file manager or you could use adb shell or a terminal to replace your build.prop
Another change to the build.prop for the popups!!!
Special thanks to yuyuye for the information.
I've attached some screenshots of the theme in action. There are many more changes not visible in the screenshots, the majority of the framework-res have been updated to match the new theme.
UPDATE 12/16
I've attached the metamorph theme in case anyone wants to try it, i would say it's beta quality as it's not finished, but it's usable. Just load the v0.1.zip file on to your sdcard, download metamorph and install away. If you have any basic questions, feel free to ask but I won't be providing an major support yet because it's not finished. I would say it's 75% complete at the most. And as always, you shouldn't have any problems but USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!
UPDATE 12/22
New version v0.3 with a change to the submenu, I changed the submenu to white so the text is legible until i can get the Ascend deodexed and properly change the color of the text...
The download labeled GingerbreadAscend3.zip is may specifically for the Ascend I don't recommend anyone apply it on any other phones
The download labeled Gingerbread3.zip is for any and all MDPI phones
Have fun!!!

Insrtuctions for installation:This is a Metamorph theme, so download and install Metamorph. Put the theme on your sdcard. Make sure your phone is rooted, you have busbox downloaded and installed and that usb debugging is turned on
For Ascend users, download your appropriate build.prop file and use a program like root explorer or subfs to copy and paste it into the /system/ directory, if you don't want to purchase one of those programs, download this program from the market "Mount /system (rw / ro)" open it and mount the system as r/w then use adb shell or a terminal emulator to copy the file over
Code:
su
cp /sdcard/build.prop /system/build.prop

UPDATE 2/3
I am no longer supporting this theme, I'm moving on to bigger and better. Happy themeing!!!!

Made a little progress using apk manager to decompile some of the xmls, got the date to show up white but still not the time and popup option menus(not sure what to call them). If anyone has any expertise, I could use the help....

Keep up the good work, I am looking fws to checking it out!

If you send me your framework-res.apk I can fix the code for the pop-up menu text.

Thanks, but problem is I don't have a "values" folder in my framework, much less an xml called "style" in any of the folders...
wait..
I'm an idiot... found it

It wasn't re-compiling the whole framework for me either, i had to to trick it to get it to re-compile the styles.xml by putting it in a different folder and renaming it... Flashed it to my phone.... and... no difference, pulled the framework back down and made sure the changes where present and they are... the Ascend doesn't seem to use those files at all... I'm pretty sure too because i accidentally deleted all the files in the values folder except the styles.xml and the phone works fine...
Thanks for your ideas Benny879, if you have any insight as to whats going on, I'd appreciate any help you could give, in the mean time i'm going to be pouring through these xml files, looking for any clues...

For anyone following the progress on this, the problem seems to be that this phone uses odex files instead of the more easily assessable jar or apks, so I'm looking into deodexing the necessary files... If anyone could offer assistance, I would appreciate it...

How would this theme be applied once its working?

The gingerbread metamorph theme I'm working on will change your lock screen sliders, your notification bar and slide down, your dialog confirmation buttons, market place tab button and a bunch of other misc graphics, your signal bars, battery, bluetooth, etc... The theme i'm working on doesn't touch the launcher. i personally use launcher pro, so this theme doesn't conflict with it, but if you want your launcher specifically to look like gingerbread's, you can find themes already made for launcher pro..

[APP] 04.10.2011 - MARKET v2.3.6 - 2 Versions Black & TruBlue

Updated 04.10.2011
Market (Vending.apk) v2.3.6 - 2 Modded Versions
************************
NOTE: Trying to work out FC Issues people are having. If you want to try this, make sure you have a back up of your /system/app/Vending.apk, as you might have to revert back to it.
A nandroid backup in Clockwork will also accomplish this.
The following is experimental until FCs and new market is worked out. Try at your own risk
************************
BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING: Check if you got the 2.3.6 Market update automatically pushed to your phone
Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All
If you *DID* receive the update, click UNINSTALL UPDATES to revert back to version 2.3.4
Both of these will ONLY install over the 2.3.4 update.
NEITHER of these will work installed over 2.3.6 (and just FCs Market when run. See below for further instructions)

Recommended Installation
BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING: Check if you got the 2.3.6 Market update automatically pushed to your phone

If you *DID* receive the update, click UNINSTALL UPDATES to revert back to version 2.3.4
Both of these will ONLY install over the 2.3.4 update.
NEITHER of these will work installed over 2.3.6 (and just FCs Market when run).
Once you're back to 2.3.4, I recommend FREEZING Market Updater in Titanium Backup.
Then you should be able to flash the zip, or use the Root Explorer method below
_________________________________________________
Personally, I used
Root Explorer and did the following:
Uninstalled updates (reverted back to 2.3.4, as above).
Force closed Market App
Root Explorer > Renamed /system/app/Vending.apk > Vending.org (Original)
Copied new Vending.apk to system/app/
Changed permissions rw-r--r--
Exit.
I basically keep a Vending.ORG (original), Vending.BLU (Blue), and Vending.apk (BnB, currently using) in my system/app/ folder until it's running stable... so I can switch back and forth at ease. Kinda ghetto.. but works for me
I've tested both apks (inside the zips), but haven't actually flashed the zips-- they should be fine, but let me know if you have any probs.
Enjoy!
Once again Credit and Thanks to Mbk, TheBowers & DevilDog8971

I did the method of renaming the 2.3.4 to .org....and it worked smooth for about the first 4 times I opened it up and then force closed...I set the permissions as shown in the picture...any suggestions to get it working right?

Yeah, I get the same result as Tony...I rebooted...cleared data on the app, still fc...oh well, thanks for the app, hopefully can get it up and running.

Maybe turn off auto-update on market?
If it doesn't work with 2.3.6, that may be causing the issue.
Click uninstall update on market and see if it works; that will give you your answer.

Thanks, my best colors of all! Now I just have to say this, can you make a red one????? Please with sugar on top for the folks who use my red theme!

when initially testing, I had a bunch of FC probs. But restoring (renaming) the original Vending apk always brought me back to normal. Then rinse and repeat. I've been solid with no FCs since last night, but keep me updated.
And yes, my market updater is frozen as well.

Once this gets stable, sure

Hey I tried flashing the trublue zip file over the 2.3.4 version of the market but when I tried to open it I his kept getting force closes, haven't tried it using root explorer. Just thought I would throw that in there.

I started having problems today as well, I'll put a big note in the OP about this, and see if I can get to the bottom of the issue. If anyone else knows, pm me.

Did the same thing the op did with keeping them all there and just renaming but I can't get the fc to stop on the themed ones. I can get them yo run for like one minute and thats it

finally, got it to work. i had a 2.3.4 emerald black zip which was working. so i copy your blue black apk to the emerald black zip. in clockwork install the original 2.3.4 first, then apply the updated emerald zip which was replaced by your blue apk. now i got 2.3.6 blue black market.
although i would like the emerald black in 2.3.6 version, but this blue is also nice.
much thanks

bootanimation.zip and downanimation.zip in /system/customize/resource are SYMLINKS to the actual files in /data/local. This was done to make modification easier. So you should be replacing the files in /data/local instead of overwriting the symlinks.
Edit:
Actually, I don't know what would happen if you flashed this in recovery without the /data partition mounted... would it overwrite the symlinks or just fail??

Nice! (10char)

It overwrites in /system.
I just tried changing the one on my phone in /data/local back to the original from v2 but the changes didn't take effect. I originally thought the /data/local one was the one to change since the only boot animation in the zipped ROM is located there. However, when I was testing these it never changed until I updated the one in /system.

I dont know if you make these or not.. but could you possibly make one for Dolphin so it doesnt load up the standard browser?
Thanks!!!

Strange. I just tried all of them again on my phone and everyone worked.
Has anyone else flashed a boot animation and it not work?

Bump for new goodies.

Just lost my themed market today. Running VR1b3 for days now with no problems. Did nothing today except download Switchpro and reboot. Bammmm, there went themed VR market. Any possible chance for a Themed VR market Zip Fix?
Great job by the way. Appreciate all the work you boys do.

I lost my again today. But this time, when I looked at my apps in the market, only 6 of the 80 something showed up. The rest, according to the market, were not installed. Had to re-download all of them again to get them to show up.
I mess around with the newest market for an hour of so but couldn't get anything working. Half the time when I installed in on the phone, market would disappear from the app drawer and the other half it would be there but force close when opened. On two occasions, I opened it and it was themed on version 2.3.6, but the next time I open it it would be back to normal. I have no idea what was going on there. I eventually gave up and decided to wait for Virus to release an update. I might mess around some more later if I have the time but it's such a nice day it's time to get outside. Looks like some disc golf is in order.

Thanks for the update and thanks for taking the time to look into it. I definately understand where we're at now with the themed market.
Did I hear Disc golf? Very nice man, Great way to unwind.

Thanks. But not my ROM, XxXViRuSXxX's ROM. He deserves the credit. I'm merely altering what he's already done to make it more personal if you will.

I lost my themed market on the blue epidemic theme and went into settings, manage applications, found market, hit uninstall updates and the themed market came back. Might help on this theme too.

Hello all! Here is my first rom, Revolt Rom!!! This is using the latest update from LG except for the boot.img. It has been fully cleaned out to decrease size and to increase speed. It will continue to be a work in progress! I hope you all enjoy!!!
What is this?
This is a very lightweight rom built both for speed and stability. This rom is based off of the latest LG update and does retain root. It is fully deodexed, and debloated. Almost all of LG has been replaced and as time goes by, I hope to remove the rest. Swype has also been changed to the newest Beta. A few items have been replaced with AOSP versions to increase speed and decrease size. Also included is the appwidgetpicker to clean that up. I have also began with the Gingerbread theme.

6.) Reboot
V. 1.3 and Older
1.) Download the .zip & make sure 4g is enabled.
2.) Extract the .zip to your external SD card in /clockworkmod/backup/ This should give you "/clockworkmod/backup/RevoltRom1.3"
3.) Boot to Clockwork, select "Backups/Restore", then "Advanced Restore". Select "RevoltRom1.1", then select "System".
4.) Once the restore finishes,wipe at least cache partition, and advanced/Wipe Dalvik-Cache. To have a fresh clean start you can wipe data also, but is not required.
5.) Reboot, and enjoy your new ROM!

When I extract it's extracting as a separate .img and .md5 file, not sure why...but i'm guessing that wont do.
can I just make a correctly named folder and extract to that?

Yes put the 2 files in a folder so that it looks like /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/RevoltRom1.0/2 files

he said its based off the latest update and still retains root. Can you give root to others who are not rooted yet???

SO nervous. Even though, I know the phone is fudge proof. I extract into clockwork, but with winrar, there was a learning curve there. So I got that. It appears to be okay. Fully rebooted.
Edit: HOLY CRAP!!!!! SMOOOOOTH. I have that 3d draw effect, and it never ran smooth. Brings a tear to my eye. Desktop scrolling is sweet!!
Edit: Yuck, that launcher is going bye bye. Is that a stock launcher?

My alarm clock is gone....
How can I get this back?

Thanks! Downloading now to check it out. I happen to love the stock launcher

Had to try it but dont do it the revobread theme wont work with this rom...

It is under clock now. The stock was a space hog (8mb) aosp is 500kb.

Nicely done

So far, so good. Smooth performance, no glitches or hang ups. Signed up for the swype beta to get that back. Did notice that I still can't install kindle from the market. Ah well. I'm getting used to google's reader. Looking forward to where you take this rom, it is a great start!

Happy to see someone other the thecubed adding ROMs to this machine. Although, you have been releasing some amazing mods and themes. All of which I love and have been on my phone. Also, has anyone switched to this from decrapped? and if so, how would you rate the 2? Which one is better since mt's theme and doesn't work with his ROM.

Lovin the ROM, nice and smooth and I like the look of the notification bar
Random though....is there a way to fix the delay between when the screen turns on and when it's active?? From the first day with this phone it's bothered me, I unlock the phone...wait 2-3 seconds...then swipe. Same when I pull the phone away from my ear on a a call

Hey haro, michaelson's is smoother. feela faster, but I am sure that is due to the updates. I certainly don't want to take away from any thing the guys are doing, both roms are very good.

Regarding the message bubble design you requested. In order tho have light text on a dark bubble requires decompiling/recompiling the Whattsapp apk and editing the xmls to change the text color. I have tried that in the past, but with little success .. as Whattsapp doestnt seem to be able to recompile properly with the conventional decompiling methods. That is why you will see most mods have only black text on lighter bubbles. Not so easy to do an inverse design.

@Yorzua
I am well aware of how to decompile and recompile apks.
The issue is with the Whattsapp apk recompiling after editing the Styles.xml within the res values folder. As many themers have found, there is an issue with recompiling WhatsApp apk after performing such edits. No one seems as yet able to successfully recompile the apk and alter the message bubble text color. You are doing well if you can change the text to inverse using ApkTool.
I myself prefer APK Manager than ApkTool as its command line structure is much better laid out and has more options.

@ Youzua
Are you able to change the black bubble text to white (within the speech bubbles)....?
The trouble lays in that part of the modifications.
I have yet to see anyone successfully recompile the Whatsapp.apk (myself included) and have the changes (black text to white) actually work after finalization.
Many have tried editing both the Style.xml and Color.xml.. but the it just don't take after recompiling. The person who cracks this is going to make everyone happy.

If it has nothing to do with the Development of this thread then do not post.
If you wish to throw insults at each other then do it on another site as we do not want to read it. Next time i have to clean this crap up i shall give out Holidays from xda

My answer :
Wasnt you happy when i was posting all my posts off topic from the theming of your themes ?
Did i help you or i just imagine your words below ?
Without my help, you would never be able to go deeper in your own theming which comes now to a real development via xmls and smalis !
I wanted sincerely to help you but hey, like you said, you seem to be more proud or ashame for that... i still remember how you posted in my threads with rage and crap **** ...
dont count on me ever to help you and wrong if you think that we dont need help from someone else... ​
======================================================================
If you come by my thread and like my work, i ask nothing more than a little thanks for the effort.
If you dont, then just give me credits if you use it.
Thanks for reading, i wish you a great day ☼​

I just created yesterday the OP and will release properly all versions with screenshots this weekend

I'm liking the changes made, not sure about the font.
BTW, Some of the preview images hosted on imageshack are not appearing.

All feedback is always appreciated.
This thread is about Whatsapp.
Fonts are not included in the apk but comes from my rom ICS_Yorzua-Desire v2.

I'm not able to install it. I copied it to system/app . changed permissions and reboot. But nothing happens.

Works for me and others.
Do you have place in your internal memory ( /system ? )
Did you set Permissions to all ?
[example]

I love your customizations Yorzua, the best around!
BTW, I installed a modded version of tweetdeck thanks to you Yorzua and I followed the same steps as you did and it worked flawlessly.
Downloaded apk to my Nexus S SD Card, then I open *Root Explorer* (you can use any file explorer with root capabilities: Script Manager - ES FIle Explorer - ROM Toolbox) changed mounting to writeable and moved the modded app to /system/app ..... then changed permissions to file so it reads: rw--r--r--
After doing so, I rebooted my phone open the app drawer and app was there, clicked on it and it works as it is supposed to.

Can you also make a BBMessenger look-a-like..??

Hi, great theme, I like it! But why is it necessary to install your app as system app & reboot? I tried other themes which can be used by just installing them. I'm just curious.

Not mandatory but 99% of the members coming here have already the latest release installed and since whatsapp ca be moved to sd, my method to install it is more efficient.
but for a first installation, you can perfectly install it with one click

Thanks for your feedback.
Working for everyone and for me.
However, I will test on a SGS running ICS tomorrow at work with the phone of a colleague and report to you.
I will start to release my mods once i rework the OP.
All versions will be signed with the same keys
