How do i edit update-script? - Android Themes

Hi Guys,
i have made a theme for the xperia play from an theme wich was created by another user.
So actually the flash works perfect, but when i flash it via cwm at the end it says
"Applying Galaxy S2 Theme by xxxxxxx"
How can i change this text to for example "Removing Theme by evo_racer" ?
Thanks for help!!!!

use notepad ++ for windows

Open it up and find the updater script. Open up that text file. Its pretty easy, just find where it says what you don't want it to and change it to be what you do want it to

To fix flashlight you need to add some lines to AndroidManifest.xml in SystemUI.apk. I tried this but it didn't work.
Afaik editing AndroidManifest.xml destroys the signature of the APK so the system doesn't except the file any longer. To get around this you'd have to resign all system apps and all jar-Files in /system/framework signed by Samsung.
It's not worth to do this for the flashlight feature. Just disable flashlight in the QuickpanelSettings App.
I personally use a version with modded lidroid-res.apk (different Icons):
The screenshot shows german icon descriptions but the provided version is in english.
If you're interested in the german version you can get it here: Lidroid 14 Statusbar Toggle Buttons German
Just replace the lidroid-res.apk in /system/framework and set permissions to rw-r--r--

How to reduce the font in the lockscreen clock???

Simple answer, I think no one knows on our forum. See if someone did it with some more popular phone. Like S2, S3... If it is done there, it should be possible for our phone. It need some modding, change in some xml if it is even possible.
I think you should find xml for lockscreen in framework-res.apk, and see if there is possibility for font size change. And after that there is question is there way to put it in place where you put it in picture.

You should search all over xda, for GB TouchWiz modification of that lockscreen. And if you find it, you can't use that, our framework need to be moded like that.

it should be in /system/framework/framework-res.apk; unzip it, go into drawable-hdpi, edit files "zzz_unlock_clock_[number].png" to suit your taste, push it into zip, rename to .apk, push to system, change permissions to 644 and reboot

How do unzip a file .apk?
(On your PC) Just use WinZip or 7zip to open the APK file.... Go to your destination folder.. Drag and drop it on where ever you want... Open it.. Make the changes... And put the folder back in... Therefore replacing the original one..
Note that this can be done only for replacing normal PNG or JPEG files.. For editing anything else you will have to decompile the apk and do it

Please use a Transparent PNG file and the white background should disappear
I think you just resized the original PNG file using something like MS Paint.... Just use Microsoft Office Picture Manager or anything similar for this...
Or use the software tool Fast Stone Image Resizer (sorry I forgot the exact name) for Windows.... Its pretty simple to use..
Its better if you still have the original backup of the original framework-res.apk... Because you can't use your new PNG files as you might need Photoshop or any advanced photo editing software to remove that white background.....

I just resized the original file ... She says that instead of resize with "Paint" I have to do with other software specific to that type of change?
Photoshop, Gimp... Save it in transparent png.

As I told you before; to only resize your PNG files use Fast stone Image resizer... (google it!!) And for any advanced image editing use GIMP or Pinta (if you find GIMP hard to use)

Switch holo dark & holo light theme

As everybody knows, in our android smartphone from 4.0 there is a possibility to switch between holo light and holo dark theme...but without selector on settings, only change some value on system.
Reading around, I have found that maybe we have to modify "androidmanifest.XML" but every apk have one, and I don't know which edit.
I tried to edit from "framework-res.apk" but when I finished and recompiled again, and replace with existing one, I have only a boot loop.....
Someone can help me to understand which file I have to edit for switch from holo.light to holo.dark???
Thanks to everybody....
Inviato dal mio U8800pro con Tapatalk 2
no one can help me to understand??
Maybe I have explained so bad, or really nobody knows how to change the theme?
Well there is no straightforward answer. Some apps declare their theme in the styles.xml inside the values folder. Others do it in the manifest. That's what you need to change. It's app specific. The framework has nothing to do with it
Sent from my One S using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Thanks for your answer, i explain you one thing to understand better:
The same ROM has been created in white (holo.light) and in dark gray (holo.dark). If i explore all the System apk, in androidmanifest.xml there is the value "holo.light" in white rom, and "holo" in dark version....
You can tell me to replace the androidmanifest.xml with existed one, but if i do it, i have a bootloop, i have tried to edit it, and i have the same problem, but if i change the entire apk, it work perfectly and change the apk theme color.....why this???
And finally, all the applications i download from the market, are not personalized with a single theme, it turns white or black depending on a value that tells him to become white or dark, which is the same, in my opinion, that runs the Rom in white or dark.
Which is this value, and where i can find it???
Don't change the whole manifest. Only that line. And remember, there WILL be parts of the app which will not look right.

You would need to go through all the .xml files in systemui.apk and framework-res.apk and change all the image redirections. Or make a cm theme apk

I have tried both replacing the entire "AndroidManifest.xml", and change only the individual lines where it was written "HOLO.LIGHT" and made ​​him "holo" (deleting the word "light"), but the result is always the same: with the "framework-res.apk" does not start the rom, with any other apk (settings.apk for example) I do not install the apk.

You think is a redirections problem??? The images there are all on "res/drawable-hdpi" and cheking both xml files (ROM HOLO AND ROM HOLO LIGHT) there are not differences except the lines where is writed "Holo" on dark theme, and "holo.light" in white theme.
If someone want help me, i can send in private the same apk you want, version dark, and version white, so you can help me to understand......

what you are asking to do is very very complicated. there isn't an easy answer. you would have to retheme every single app on your phone. plus changing manifest won't work....especially if an app is only coded for holo dark...but the major problem is that no developer follows google style designs 100%, not even google at the moment.

after pushing framework-res.apk into your phone, go to recovery and try fixing permissions.

Unfortunately no, but there is a long method by which you can use some stuff from the theme you want to use as base. The steps are:
1) Extract every qmg file from each apk within a theme and rename the extracted apks to zip.
2) using command prompt run the following command:
Code:
ren *.qmg *.png
it will auto change the extension from qmg to png.
3) Transfer the pngs to mobile phone and look at the images you want to use
4) create your theme and individually replace the qmg which you identified from pngs with the base themes qmg. That's it.
I know its a tiresome task
nice:good: i made my first theme
Thanks, this is something..

First, thank you for posting this tool.
I'm still old skool in terms of theming, hard coding the system and adding/changing images to my preference.
It seems the the overlay themes are the direction it been headed for sometime so if the tool is easy enough and less time consuming, I suppose I could switch, plus the compatibility for many more devices and users is quite nice!
As far as converting/viewing qmg images install this to your phone and within the app select the apk of which you wish to view the qmg images and bam! It's all done, converted to png's viewable on pc and everything!
Anyways, thanks again!

I also found out one more way as this alp was not working for me on s7. Further, the above mentioned method is not working as the tool requires you to sign the apk with a certificate which you create with this tool itself and changing the files i think damages the signature. Nevertheless the 2nd way is to rename the qmg files to png. Transfer them to phone and then through the phone edit them. Add a small difference so that you can save it. Once you do, it will save it in png format.
