[THEME - WIP] Stargate [RELEASE - 8/20/11] - Xoom Themes and Apps

[edit - see post 2 for download/details]
Hey, XDA! Long time, no see!
Sorry for going AWOL for so long. Work got super busy and I had to force myself to NOT come to XDA in order to focus on real life. I was spending waaay too much time tinkering with my XOOM and I just had to take a step back.
But, things have slowed down a little bit and I've actually got a new theme in the works. This time, I've got a team to help with the porting! MitchTank (and maybe dhemke17) are going to port the theme over to Tiamat and WiFi, and they also have my blessing to re-port Honeybread.
So, without further ado, here is the new theme I'm working on. It's about 90% complete, and I should have a file up by the end of the week. Also, it will only be 99% complete until Sangreal06 updates hnytool to work with 3.2.
STARGATE COMPUTER, or SGC, is based off of the computer screens in Stargate Atlantis, with some artistic liberty for the unlock ring, clock and other circular items.

There are still a few things I may change, and I will need to get the author of Thumb Keyboard to upload my theme for this (and for Honeybread) so that paid users can use the themed keyboards with this and Honeybread.

Version 1.0 Download Link - THIS IS FOR US 3G XOOMs ONLY!!
(MitchTank, if you guys want to start porting, feel free! I still have a few more little pngs to change here and there, though.)
PORTS FOR WIFI ONLY and TIAMAT ROMS can be found here.
DETAILS AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
Code:
SGC for XOOM 3G (US) - Android 3.2
v1.0 - 8/20/11 - Please report bugs! The current version of apktool is kinda' sketch on some things.
Included in this package:
-main
framework-res.apk - Goes in system/framework. Requires reboot
-System Apps folder (All of these go in system/app folder on your XOOM)
SystemUI.apk - Requires reboot
Launcher2.apk - CHANGING THIS WILL WIPE YOUR HOMESCREEN WIDGETS. Apps shortcuts will remain.
--Rotation speed of orientation switch has been sped up in this edit. You're welcome.
DeskClockGoogle.apk - Changed the small Honeycomb clock widget.
Browser.apk
Settings.apk
*Music2.apk* - Coming soon!
-bootanimation.zip - A simple boot animation for the theme. Please help me fix the white flash between loops. :P
To install this, copy it to data/local or push it there via adb.
-Fonts folder (Requires reboot for the clock in the status bar to change)
3 Android Clock fonts (to replace the Honeycomb clock fonts. They go in system/fonts)
AndroidClock.ttf
AndroidClock_Solid.ttf
AndroidClock_Highlight.ttf
-3rd Party Folder
BigClockSGC.apk - A big (4x4) version of the themed Honeycomb clock. 3x3 coming soon.
AudioManager.apk - Free version of the AudioManager widget. Use "Default" for theme.
-Buttons Folder - 8 Circle Launcher icons (Set them in the circle launcher settings by selecting Custom Icon)
-Beautiful Widgets Folder - Found on internal storage at /sdcard/data/beautifulwidgets
--ClockSGC - Super Clock Skin, goes in /sdcard/data/beautifulwidgets/scskins
--BatterySGC - BW Battery Widget Skin, goes in /sdcard/data/beautifulwidgets/bskins
--WeatherSGC - BW Weather Skin, goes in /sdcard/data/beautifulwidgets/wskins
Two ways to install:
A. With Root Explorer
1. Put the files and folders in your XOOM's SD Card
2. Navigate to them in Root Explorer
3. Copy each one over individually to their respective folders
(Note - Make sure you change your XOOM to writable in Root Explorer by switching W/O to R/O at the top)
-For framework-res.apk, copy it into system/framework, then reboot.
-For the Gingerbread clock, just click and install it, then insert it as a widget.
-For files in the System Apps folder, copy them over to system/app (Reboot after installing SystemUI.apk)
*NOTE THAT CHANGING THE LAUNCHER WILL WIPE WIDGETS FROM HOMESCREENS. Back up any circle launcher settings you have to save time resetting everything.
-For files in the Fonts folder, copy them over to system/fonts (Reboot for the status bar clcok change)
B. Via ADB (If you want the Gingerbread clock and CL Buttons, you still need to install them manually)
1. Copy all files INDIVIDUALLY over to your Android SDK Tools folder first (You can put
them all in a single folder if you wish, just be sure to push from that folder, as in adb push folder\file /system/folder/file )
(These are CASE SENSITIVE!)
adb remount
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb push SystemUI.apk system/app
adb push Browser.apk system/app
adb push Launcher2.apk system/app # THIS WILL WIPE YOUR HOMESCREEN WIDGETS
adb push DeskClockGoogle.apk system/app
adb push Settings.apk system/app
adb push AndroidClock.ttf system/fonts/
adb push AndroidClock_Solid.ttf system/fonts/
adb push AndroidClock_Highlight.ttf system/fonts/
adb reboot

Glad to see you return. Looking forward to seeing this.

looks promising. Pretty cool!

Looks really good

You are the man, a true artist. Looking forward to it. Email me if you want anything.

Blows the current theme options out of the water... Please hurry LOL

Things left to do:
-Change small button and check box colors in framework-res.
-Change icons for quick menu (they look OK now, but I want something different)
-recolor the music app.
-Maybe change the BeautifulWidget clock font from bold to normal to slim it up. I'm not too crazy about the bold the longer I have it on my homescreen.
When I'm able to decompile:
-Change status bar and quick settings clock colors in SystemUI
-Change outer glow drag color in Launcher
-Reskin Settings and Gmail apks.
I found an updated version of apktool, so hopefully I can get it working soon.

looks cool..

Sounds awesome! I am glad you are skinning the apks. It is very exciting for us guys who want a theme that isnt just a color change to everything. It is also nice to see different icons... I desperately want to theme my icons, but without custom home launcher it is hard.. Well they are out there but they suck and lose some of xooms cooler animations. Really excited for this...

I love this theme. Cannot wait to get my hands on this one. Thumbs up for sure!!!!!

awesome theme, i want!!!

Lol, checking everyday, twice a day, impatiently.

I should have a beta out tomorrow. I was going to release it yesterday but I started to notice some crazy stuff happening with apps crashing a lot. Then I read this on the apktool code site. It was the .arsc file causing the crashes in my framework, so I had to revert back to the stock file, meaning some of the colors I wished to change aren't changed (there are still some oranges here and there), so I'll just have to wait until apktool is fixed until I change those colors.
I could release it now, but I want to live with it for today to make sure I don't have any other weird little bugs. One thing that sucks is that I can't edit certain other apps that I wanted to. Browser is only partially themed, except for the quick controls color, which is defined in the .arsc, so it's still stock for the most part. Gmail and the Calendar app have a lot of text colors that need changing, but they crash randomly due to the .arsc file change, so for now they are stock.
Here's a list of everything I've changed.
Android:
framework-res.apk
SystemUI.apk
Launcher2.apk
Settings.apk
Browser.apk (mostly)
Music2.apk (Actually still working on this one a little)
3rd party:
Thumb Keyboard (this is a paid app, so I'm not sure how to go about this one)
Beautiful Widgets (Superclock, Battery, Weather)
AudioManager
Circle Launcher icons

i dont know much about this stuff but would it be any benefit to use the modified hnytool.apk in the development forum? Or does that not help any?

It would if Sangreal06 would updated it. Right now it's tuned to 3.1, so it doesn't decompile.

I haven't had any problems decompiling 3.2 ... perhaps you could send me a PM with your problem and I might be able to help.

This is freaking awesome. I want to get into theming but I need to buy myself a laptop. Mac or Windows? Which one has more tools for theming.

Windows would be more universal for it. They did just update hnytool for Mac, but windows is still simpler.

Updated (Metamorph) Monster Energy Theme V1.8 (02/10/2011)

First off, just wanted to say this is originally based off of jonathanphx1's DarkHorse theme. He has done a awesome job with it and i'm taking it all and evolving the Monster Theme around it.
This is my first metamorph theme, so its not all perfect yet. Still need help with one main thing. Thats figuring out how to compile 9image files to fit the widgets properly. But anyways heres my first version of what i've gotten so far. Just make sure to nandroid up before applying just as you would anything else. This replaces the pretty much everything in the framework-res area. I've gotten a few apps done. Still tinkering and tweaking a few things to get things perfect. But of course wont ever be perfect lol. But for now this is what i've came up with.
This is my first version 1.1

}
Version 1.5
Changes made:
New lockscreen icons
New status bar icons (3g, signal bars, car mode, usb, debugging, phone, vibrate)
New look to the overall icons in settings, menus, and apps
New apps themed, (phone, Mms,) credit to the icons in Mms to developer of Watermark'd. I did the mms and sms notification icons myself. took rest of the menu icons and such that are in the app and redid the looks of them.
*Facebook widget isnt quite perfect like it should look. I'm having difficulty getting the .9.png files right. there a pain lol. But it is still functional. Same thing goes for the settings toggle widget, the background isnt working or looking like it should and still working on it. Its still functional. Probably look better if you leave background off in settings lol.
Version 1.6
Changes made:
Added new app
*DeskClock.apk
Fixed the power toggle icons to match the status bar icon toggles, plus changed few icons (reapply the settings sub theme)
Changed the Mms icon (reapply the Mms sub theme)
Changed the color of the divider lines in menus (reapply the framework-res sub theme)
*Still looking for a fix with the facebook background widget files.
Version 1.7
Changes made:
Added couple apps, nothing big
*AccountsAndSyncSettings.apk
*Bluetooth.apk
*XDA.apk (make sure to rename the app in /data/app to XDA.apk and move it from there to /system/app and reboot, then apply the theme)
Updated some apps
*Browser.apk
*Calculator.apk
*Calendar.apk
*Camera
*Contacts
*DeskClock.apk (fixed a file that was messed up)
*Gallery3D.apk
*framework-res (couple files i redone, nothing major)
Latest Version 1.8
Changes made:
Added couple more apps
*Music.apk
*LauncherPro.apk (it is the updated version of 0.8.3, make sure to rename as you see here and move to /system/apps, reboot, and apply theme, reboot)
*Updated Facebook.apk (still not perfect like it should, but better than before thanks to scott2hot97 for the tip)
*Updated Contacts.apk (changed looks for the quick popup)
*Updated the framework-res for a few files and to finally get the notification menu to match lol
Added themed keyboard thanks to gimpsta's keyboard generator
*You can either install the .apk or upgrade it. (its just a themed over version of HTC IME Mod)
This is the bootanimation...
* I changed the version file names so it wouldnt be confusing as to which version is which to download. There is nothing different, but the filenames there self.
I added the bootanimation.zip along with the .xml theme notification colors (Monster_Energy_CMTheme.zip), dock, and the word text on the launcher pro icons (which came from someone on a droid forum i found, but changed the colors to my own as seen in the pix)
Future updates will hopefully have the fixes for the facebook, settings toggle widgets. As soon as i figure out or hopefully get some help with the bg files. May probably have new icons for some things. Any ideas or input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
took this post and added it to main top post

the clock is actually wp clock live wallpaper. and here is the dock. The Facebook.apk works with this download apk file. Put the app in /system/apps and make sure its named Facebook.apk and reboot and apply the theme. Just make sure to uninstall the old facebook first.
thx ill give that try
ok everthing worked now still confused what is wp live wallpaper and where can i find it
Were you talking bout the clock on the screen or n the status bar next to battery icon?

yes the clock beside the battery icon

for the clock and other notification colors, the attached zip needs to be extracted and the .xml will go into the cmTheme folder. In the cm settings, apply the monster energy theme and reboot.
Just wondering r u themeing other apps on this theme and my clock still does not have that font as above pics the color is right

yes i'm in the process of doing few other apps. the font wont change cuz thats part of something different when applying fonts. Get typefresh from the market and the font i use which changes everything you see on your phone is called nightmare from dafont.com. apply that to the droidsanbold and that will change 98% of the text you see on your phone to that font, including the clock.

yes thats correct. if i knew of a way of including that in the theme i would. But i probably wouldnt want to just in case people wouldnt be able to read the font or see it clearly. Cuz when changing the fonts, it changes bout 98% of everything text you see on your phone.
is this theme compatible with froshedyo vanilla where did u get the clock in the v1.5

Idk say its compatible with it, I'm using kaosfroyo v39. And the clock is from beautiful Widgets. But the one I have, I took the version of the clock from someone else that uploaded that n I customized it a lil. The one you see isn't available.

Yah its pretty good. Its the only froyo rom I've had, after installing it, just flash the GPS fix n the newest gapps update n your set.

Looks really nice.
Thanks, Lokko!
My current challenge is theming the widget and app selection screens. I can't seem to find the app that handles them. If anyone knows, lemme' know.
There's other stuff like outer-glow while moving widgets/shortcuts and the blue outline that appears while scrolling through homescreens that I'm still trying to track down. I'm fairly certain the former is handled by code (in an XML file), so that will have to wait.
I like, I like...
Might have to borrow one or two of your techniques
Looks good Ill give it a shot....
Love those widget icons!!! Will they be included in the theme?
Can't wait till I can give it a whirl!

+1 on that!! And how about an option to install either white or green nav buttons, but if you have to choose I think the white looks good!(especially since there is no preview of the green)...When you mention that the text will change, are you referring to the font? Custom Android Font Changer works great, Im currently using COMFORTAA...
I love this!!! If you need a tester I will gladly sacrifice my Xoom since I use it for personal use not really needed for my business... I also have circle launcher so I can use the other Icons you have there. Let me know!!!
looks very nice would test drive it also if you want. I too have circle launcher and the icon set already
very nice. excuse the dumb question but... where's the download link?

Yeah. They'll be there. The Market button is actually a Widgetsoid shortcut and not a circle launcher, but it would work well if you wanted to put a circle launcher on it with the stock market, Amazon market, and Appbrain. In fact, I think I might do that on my XOOM.

I hope to get a beta out in the next couple of days. It will only be for the 3G version. I don't have a wifi version to mess around with. I'm also going to throw in the clock widget and music widget (which needs a little work).
[edit]
Have a look at this mockup for the green buttons.
I personally think white looks better but won't have the full effect until I can change the clock to white as well. I'm also considering changing them to Nexus S buttons instead of Droid buttons, but since this is a Motorola product, I'm probably going to leave them alone.
[update] Launcher is finished.

I love this theme and would prefer the white buttons also. I will be happy to beta test your theme on my wifi version. Please keep the YouVersion Bible widget..I would use it daily!
very nice to see another theme for xoom, as i think big DX red/blue looks gaudy and tasteless, this seems to be elegant and classy looking. i think the green home/back/recent apps buttons look better than the white.

Ow that hurt ...is there anyway to apply your theme the same way Bignadad applied his to wifi models?
I'll have to ask him how he did it. I'm guessing he just got the framework-res and SystemUI from the system image that's posted up in the dev forum. If that's the case, it shouldn't be too difficult.
this looks nice glad I own a 3g model
Looks great! I can appreciate the creativity in the lockscreen. Im currently in progress of my own theme as well. I had PM bignadad a few questions regarding decompiling of .apk's. I seem to be struggling at getting a succesful decompile. Any ideas?

-Problems often emerge when used with "typhoon" builds, none that are serious have been reported, however parts of the theme have not been applied.

3)Upon restart go "App Drawer=>Theme Chooser" then pick "HoneygenMod UOT"
(it commonly says that the images are to small, ignore that. Phone users[rather than tablet] shouldn't be able to tell the difference.)
4)Enjoy the fruits of my and others labor.
Boot Animation Installation:
[tip: use R/W permissions in your file explorer]
2)Use a root-file-explorer(I use "Root Explorer" but something like "ES File Explorer" will be fine) to go to "/system/media/" and rename "bootanimation.zip" to "oldbootanimation.zip"
3)Copy "bootanimtion.zip" from where ever you downloaded it to(likely the folder "download" on SD Card) to "/system/media/"
4)Reboot phone to make sure it worked.
Screen Transition Installation:
2)Copy "fold_MM.zip" to folder "AndroidThemes" on SD Card.
3)Go "App Drawer=>MetaMorph"
4)Select "Unzip/Extract new theme"
5)Select "Fold_MM.zip" and apply the theme and RESTART; if it gives you an error keep reading these instructions.
6)If gives it gives you an error(common), reopen MetaMorph and Select "Pick existing theme"
7)Go "Flip_MM=>Flip.xml"
8)Apply theme and RESTART
If Updating:
1)it is not required, but to avoid issues, select an alternate theme for your phone and uninstall your current version of HoneygenMod.apk
2)no wipe required however it is always a good idea to wipe cache and dalvik-cache just in case.
3)flash package as normal
4)Upon restart go "App Drawer=>Theme Chooser" then pick "HoneygenMod UOT"
(it commonly says that the images are to small, ignore that. Phone users[rather than tablet] shouldn't be able to tell the difference.)
5)Enjoy the fruits of my and others labor.

In a couple hours I'm making an update, Ill find out exactly what is what then... however I do know that the lockscreen is widgetlocker[$], the message widget is a part of LP+[$](honeycomb theme), those "buttons" are a part of a volume app[free], and the font switcher can't directly change the font size(however it can give you a font that's bigger).
you may have CM set to have the % in the batt so if you turn that off it should look like mine.
as far as the sendfile, i think you may be referring to dropbox... in which case if you dont know what it is, just visit dropbox.com
i can confirm that this theme works on the HTC HD2 running hyperdroid cm7, (cm 7.0.1 currently to my knowledge) i am a honeybread convert like others ive seen and i gotta say this is beautiful, its exactly what ive been looking for, every detail seems to be a perfect mix of gingerbread and honeycomb on my phone now thank you for this amazing theme

correct, until the next update is ready it will be down... normally this doesnt take but a few hours or even a few minutes, but life happened then mothers day so just got swamped mid process.
This particular update the original had to be taken down because it wasnt compiled correctly so it would flash but only a few bits of the theme would actually be applied.
how do yu download cm 7?

Go SMS
How do you theme the Go SMS app? The preview you show seems to look more like the default messaging app. Maybe a handscent theme would be nice? Other than that this works excellent, great theme and good work.

That can be themed in its preferences...you can use images as well as solid colors, i used a HC wallpaper and then the rest are just solid colors
Awesome theme, I love the notification pull down menu I've been searching for a good transparent one. Keep up the great work.

[MetaMorph] Gingerbread Pack v 1.1

If you applied the jacked up metamorph I added 1.1/1.1a you will need to SBF to get your **** right, sorry, I warned you. After you get SBF'd back to stock you can re-root and apply 1.1d. No more surprises, PROMISE!
After seeing a lot of requests for a Gingerbread theme I decided that since
MetaMorph seems to dangerously be working why not give it a go and just
compile a large Gingerbread theme for it.
Note of caution: Using MetaMorph can potentially softbrick your phone,
in all my testing I have yet to do so, but just know it is a possibility. I am not
responsible for anything that happens from you using this MetaMorph theme.

Yea I edited step 4....it seemed a little ambiguous at that point I should have
screened it step by step. I'm cloning the CM7 repo right now for the other images I need.
Donating soon!
I'm totally wiped after work today...i'm cloning every repo I need, including the
documentation on what gets compiled where and then i'll update tomorrow in the
AM with v2.
Also going to be adding multicolor themes...(cyanogen, red, white, pink, etc.)
OK, so my WiFI, Battery icon, and black notification bar seem to be going well..
HOWEVER, for my signal bar, when I boot it up it shows the Gingerbread style signal icons, then after approx. 5 seconds it disappears and shows the stock icons.
Could Jewremy's Mods have affected this?

OK, let's run over this again...
- You SBF'd to get rid of Jewremy's Mods
- Re-rooted
- Re-applied the MetaMorph
And still no success?
Bear in mind, I haven't used Jewremy's mods.
After some looking...it will be easier to mod Jewremy's ModKit...and update this thread with
the modded version, if he'll allow it.
Yeah--Of course I could've just pushed the old framework-res.apk back onto my system, but there was so much edited crap inside the old framework-res.apk that I decided to just SBF.
Yeah, you can see the changed signal icon for like a few seconds when the phone boots up but right after, the icons change back to the stock icons. The same thing is happening with the 3G icon.
I think it will be easier to use Jewremy's ModKit to apply these mods. having the SystemUI.apk constantly force closing and stuff is going to give people a tough time!
It sounds like it has something to do with when the phone syncs with google, it changes to the stock icons. Did you change those also? There are the white ones, and the green.

Well after visiting the idea a little more thoroughly...i'll feel much better using
metamorphs...i'm looking through Jewremy's stuff trying to figure why they
default back to the stock, especially if the values/images have been
changed/overwritten on the SystemUI.
The changes metamorph makes are not as system intensive as Jewremy so
from a theming perspective not using his mods may be a price to consider
when using metamorphs. Nothing against him or his mods.
I've decompiled SYstemUI.apk and i'm sifting through what I can in it right now.
I left out icons in the metamorph unintentionally, working on releasing the newest
now...to be exact I included icons for 'fully' whenyou ryou are connected to Googles
servers but left off the default ones...been months since I themed anything. New 1.1
zip in 20 minutes.
I've received permission for you to use Jewremy's ModKit for use in your themes.
[18:53] <kshen1> Jewremying
[18:53] == erismaster_ [[email protected]] has joined #krazyk
[18:53] <kshen1> Jewremy: we're wondering if we could use your ModKit to create our own themes
[18:54] <Jewremy> yeah. go for it.
[18:54] <Jewremy> I used uot.dakra.lt and apkmanager to do everything.
So it is safe in a sense to change icons, notification pull down and lock screens? Im asking because I created a thread where people could post what they used and worked and its basically collecting dust, lol.

You should make a MM to get back to stock, too.
Also, can't wait for notification bar + overscroll + others.
v 1.1 w/ signal icon and other notification icon fixes upped, check OP.
@kshen, the reason you were getting that error was because I left some important icons out
of the folders, it has been corrected now.
Downloading now, will report back
Status bar is fixed, but other stuff is broken. hold on while i upload a video!

[MOD] MIUI Launcher for Tablets - Landscape, grid, larger icons **Updated 1.13.1**

Decided to mod up MIUI's standalone launcher for my own use - turned out better than I expected, so decided to share in current state
Update to 1.13.1
See here for change log from MIUI
Version 1.9.1 still available below - Use this version to change homescreen grid size - MIUI removed from later versions (options are 6x6, 7x5, 8x5, 8x6). Install latest over the top will retain your selection. Default grid size on fresh install is 6x5.
Restored slightly upscaled icons (9%) - seems to maintain quality with a better size
Default of 6x5 added, as folder's presume this layout, and the 8x5 from my 1.12.1.mod seemed cramped - also fixed label placement under icon in folders
There has been hundreds of downloads - feel free to hit thanks
Update to 1.12.1
Restored icons to stock size (15% smaller) - should improve visual appearance. Suggest googling "HD miui icon themes" if you want a bigger icon set. Otherwise if too small let me know via post - democracy wins
Improve power usage in android 4.1+
Fix wallpaper setting bug
Fix launcher FC on android 4.2
NOTE: I haven't confirmed above, however have noticed that MIUI have now both removed the overflow menu, and the ability to choose your custom grid size via settings. A fresh install of 1.12.1 will assume 8x5 grid, however an upgrade should maintain your current setting. A bit frustrating, so really depends on whether the new features/performance are noticeable YMMV
Notes:
Fully landscape enabled (all screens) - dpi of icons changed to suit Xoom
Have included several icon layout options in Laucher Settings > Cell Layout - Default is 7x5
MIUI Wallpaper selector for static walls doesn't seem to work 100% of the time (LWP fine). Use Zedge or Gallery or similar to apply static wallpapers.
"Edit Widgets" method works fine, but deleting a homescreen can take several attempts (use Menu>Preview instead to add delete home pages)
"Class" Transistion Effect works the best - others can cause odd screen artifacts
Given this is forced to Landscape, don't use the inbuilt MiLocker lockscreen - wont look right!
Applying a new theme in vers 1.7.0 can re-enable lockscreen - which can cause a problem if the lockscreen type doesn't allow you to unlock in landscape (found out the hardway!). Will see if I can disable miui lockscreen from starting. If that happens, hopefully you have usb-debugging enabled, and you have root - just;
If "Locked Out"....
Code:
adb shell
ls /data/app/com.miui* (to get package name)
mv /data/app/packname_from_above.apk /data/app/tmp.tmp
toggle power button on xoom, and you should now have a force close and ability to hit home key to go to stock launcher temporarily.
Code:
mv /data/app/tmp.tmp /data/app/packname_from_above.apk
Otherwise seems fully functional and smooth - enjoy!

Hey, thanks so much for this. Exactly what I needed. Now, off to go try it with diff. ROMs. Gotta see which one compliments it the best. Bwahahaha~
Glad you like it.. seems to go well with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1914575 (Page 2) - it is a port of an HDPI theme that wont install on xoom
Thank you very much, haydnlj!
Runs great on my Acer Iconia tab A500. Finally I can have some MIUI experience on my tablet
No sweat man - feel free to post a link over there... going to update to 1.10.1 a little later on (if only to see if there is an improvement)
Now this is cool. Finally don't have to deal with just adw and launcher pro!
Thanks haydnlj for keeping your mod updated! I tried installing 1.11.1 over 1.10.1 but menu icon disappears. Tried clearing mihome cache while on 1.10.1 and reenable the gestures setting then install 1.11.1 but the icon is still disappearing. I have iconia a500 on stock ics 4.0.3 running stock kernel.
Edit: Stupid me....I guess that workaround is intended to get to the menu with a gesture but not with a softbutton

Yeah not sure why the soft button is gone (might have been an resource update I did, but all seems in order). Will just see when next update comes out I guess.
Will probably post 2 versions next time - one without the icon scaling (as it kinda bleeds the image a little). This would be best if using an HD icon pack to still give a decent size (currently I upscale 15%)..
Could i ask how this was done, would be helpful to me for personal use.

LOL - haven't looked at this thread for some time, and randomly checked "Themes and Apps" today and saw this...
Very simple, just used APK-Multi-Tool to decompile and edit..
Extract miui home apk from /data/app/ on phone with adb (something like com.miui.mihome2-#.apk) - i.e. install latest version from market to a compatible phone, then pull file to mod for install to Xoom
place this apk in APK-Multi\place-apk-here-for-modding folder
at windows cmd prompt in APK-Multi Folder type execute script .bat and choose option 9 (assumes you have already run setup in same folder)
once complete goto APK-Multi\projects subdir
You should see something like com.miui.mihome2-#.apk - enter this folder
Open AndroidManifest.xml in text editor and replace all instances of
Code:
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
with
Code:
android:screenOrientation="landscape"
navigate to \projects\com.miui.mihome2-2.apk\res\values\ folder
edit integers.xml and change config_cell_count_x and config_cell_count_y for default rows and columns (i.e. values for a fresh install)
edit arrays.xml find and either replace or add to with new entries
Code:
<string-array name="cell_layout_size_entries">
<item>4x4</item>
<item>4x5</item>
</string-array>
<string-array name="cell_layout_size_values">
<item>4x4</item>
<item>4x5</item>
</string-array>
e.g.
Code:
<string-array name="cell_layout_size_entries">
<item>5x8</item>
<item>6x6</item>
<item>8x6</item>
</string-array>
<string-array name="cell_layout_size_values">
<item>5x8</item>
<item>6x6</item>
<item>8x6</item>
</string-array>
edit dimens.xml
main change was the icon scaling (which I was never happy with - i.e. a little blurry)
Code:
<dimen name="config_icon_width">60.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="config_icon_height">60.0dip</dimen>
to something like
Code:
<dimen name="config_icon_width">76.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="config_icon_height">76.0dip</dimen>
Basically would tweak several values in this file (trial and error) - font size etc. I can't recall exactly, but there was a setting or 2 in dimens.xml that determined the icon label offset, which if not updated would show the icon label overlaying instead of under the icon. The dimens.xml seems to change the most between releases, so you need a little trial and erorr. Decompile one of the attached to this thread to find values I updated - the variable names should be mostly the same, but perhaps in a different order.
I then replaced app_launch_pic.png in \projects\com.miui.mihome2-#.apk\res\drawable-hdpi with a image for the Xoom's landscape dimensions - purely aesthetics
have Xoom or emulator attached via adb, and go back to script and choose option 15 (or 12 then 13) and manually install with
Code:
adb install -r
option to save your current settings. The good news is the latest MIUI home has a backup to sdcard option, so makes the version changes easier.
New APK should be created in place-apk-here-for-modding folder
They were the main changes from memory - but basically just poked around and tweaked things and recompiled/tested to see if it looked better.
Good luck
