[Q] A couple of questions regarding GingerDX - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just started using it and it works great!
Just have two questions:
1) Where can I configure the statusbar pulldown appearance? I want it to looklike this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=814890
2) Is there anyway to change the keyboard layout to include the "ñ" key? I have it set to spanish, but the layout stays the same, I still have to keep the "n" key pressed to get the "ñ"
thanks a lot!

If I understood your question , then
1) Change your theme to some other CM7 theme. That changes the pulldown appearance.
2) Change your keyboard. Use some third party app. Try Swiftkey. I think it has this letter.

I guess for the 1st question you could either: Change theme to a CM7 theme in the theme chooser and market, or you could try flashing it, but i dont think it will work with our phone, so IMO get a CM7 theme

use go keyboard(free) install spanish

Hey, I also yesterday installed GDX and it works gr8 inspite of some sound issues with songs(i had crappy sound tell me if u also encounter them)
Now, for
1. Get couple of CyanogenMod themes by searching them. They change the look of ur phone and including status bar.
Get themes on
h t t p : //forum.cyanogen m o d . c o m/topic/17567-list-cm7-theme-chooser-themes/
[Remove those spaces in the link as i m not allowed to post links as a newbie]
and for
2. Use a third party keyboard app. Try using GO keyboard, Swiftkey or SlideIT

Please press the thanks button if i helped u! I m just a newbie

OT: I like the person above in spite of being newbie he did a good job sharing thru his exp. Keep it up tdhawan mwah
You deserved your first THANKS

Thanks a lot everyone!
For 1: I looked into the theme department, but was a little overwhelmed with all the alternatives... what are some of your favourites?
For 2: I tried Go Keyboard but it doe3sn't have the Ñ, I'll take a look at swiftkey.
thanks!

Also, if I don't change the theme, can I at least add more buttons to the pulldown menu? the APN switch is what I need.
thanks!

You can found the available widget in
System >> Cyanogenmod setting >> Interface >> Notification Power Widget >> Widget Buttons then check the widget you want

Yes, use some other cm7 theme, about keyboard i would recommend xperia`s keyboard... It should have all languages i think..

Yeah, i would recommend sony keyboard, but if you want that certain letter, try swiftkey. Slide it would also be an alternative.

[Q] How to change app drawer background

Hi
I want know what is the xml file in touchwizz30laucher.apk for change the app drawer background in black to transparent
thank
i too have the same problem. the only way i can get transparent app drawer is by changing the default launcher. i use launcher pro at the moment, you can also do this with ZEAM launcher ( My favourite ) or you can download sgs tools from the market and go into that and select upgrade stock apps >> upgrade tw launcher,, then find a modded TWlauncher that you like
Thank for your ask, but it's possible change the touchwizz appdrawer black to transparent, like the gtg launcher, but i don't find in all the tread what is the xml files for change this
on the home screen press the left menu button if there is a option for preferences it will be under that, if there is no preference option i doubt you can do it. but like i said earlier there are plenty of launchers with the option of customisation. some similar to the one u use now
Yes it's possible without a other laucher, read this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=822523
It's probably a modification of a xml files in touchwizz30launcher.apk, but i don't find what is this file
i dont understand what you mean.... if that is the mod your looking for just download it and apply it
You don't understand because my english is very bad
I don't want download the mod because i just want a transparent app drawer without the rest of the mod
haha true dat
anyway downloading the mod is only small in size why dont u want to download it you wont even notice
Because i want find the xml file to modify but not for change the black background in transparent background, but for transform in wallpaper background ( if you don't understand, it's always because my english is a martian language)
Haha. I'll leave you too it then. I'm confused lol

PM the developer who made the mod then. Or just read through the thread. It might be there somewhere.
I read her post but without answer. You are right, i send un pm
thank
i wouldnt even try doing it but there are other launchers which do that

Sword Art Online User Interface ICS

Hello Guys!
I tried making a Sword Art Online Widget Interface on my HTC Incredible S running on ICS.
preview is attached below. i cant post any links since im new sorry for the inconvenience
2 main applications I used:
Apex Launcher: available on google play
Glaeja : available on google play.
*Apex Launcher works for ICS and Jelly Bean only i think
I recommend installing Apex Launcher first
Apex Launcher setup after installation:
(Not sure this will work though, since settings are from my phone)
1. Download all the attached files with apex on it. Copy on sdcard. (extract zipped files)
2. Move apex_settings.bak to /sdcard/Android/data/apexlauncher/
3. Open apex settings and go to backup and restore
4. Select restore.
Glaeja Setup after installation:
1. Create New Widgets on Home Screen. 1 4x1 Glaeja Widget for the hpbatterybar and 2 3x3 Glaeja Widgets for the bars.
2. Download the skins, images and font files and paste them to the corresponding folders found in /sdcard/com.gmail.kanitawa.glaeja/
3.Select the widgets on HomeScreen and click Load Skin, select the corresponding skin file.
4. Select None on the On Click option.
Notes:
Apex:
-Key Settings:
Number of Screens = 3
Transition Effect = None
Use Tablet UI Mode = unchecked
Minimum Scrolling Time = 2
Show Wallpaper = checked, Mode = Singlescreen
Glaeja:
-For the Name on HP bar just edit widget and then find the corresponding text with Shawn on it. Edit the Display Text. same goes for LV: __
-For Shortcuts of the bar, the shortcuts can be replaced on the Transparent Buttons found on the bar widgets.
There is also a video showing my work on youtube, it has poor quality but it satisfies it purpose. (again sorry for not being able to post links since im new)
Thanks guys! And I hope some people find this post helpful. Comments will be greatly appreciated.
UPDATE:
Uploaded missing file manager icon

Thank you so much for this. It's really great. Took a while but I managed to get it to work with 7 screens to make more like in the Series.
Finally someone is trying to create a nice theme. Props.

How did you get the Apex buttons to open different Glaeja widget menus,as well as change to the yellow one when clicked? Or did you just make it look that way. Running on SGS3 with CM10.

Help
How exactly do you do all that you did to make it look the way it did in the images. I am completely lost in terms of what to do... I don't really know how to make anything come out as it should and after about an hour of messing around with everything I gave up on trying to figure out from the directions that were given... Can I get a step-by-step instruction as to how you set it up? thanks
Hey! Your SOA theme looks really amazing! I tried to set it up, but my apexlauncher wasn`t in the SC card?? Is there a different way to insert the settings into apex launcher?
Yea your instructions dont really help at all. Even had to create the folder for the apexlauncher but i somehow think that the settings backup didnt do anything at all. An howto would be very appreciated since it does look very good.

Just a heads up. You can use any images for the icons, any images for the widgets/text/etc. Once you grasp what is happening and put a lot of time into it, your imagination is the limit.
I'll try to explain what is happening here, that I see. I have a similar "tabbed' style setup on my tablet. I'm using Nova and a quick one button tutorial you can easily do to see what is happening goes as so...
1. Press and hold blank spot on screen, press Nova actions, then press jump to page, and select page 2 (this will be 2nd from the far left of your setup, adjust accordingly). Now you will have an icon on your screen.
2. Press and hold the icon, select edit and you can replace the icon with any image you see fit. Now you have your "button". For example sake, lets say you have an icon/text that you want to have media stuff brought up.
3. Now on page 2, which should be blank (no icon), you will want to make the same 'jump to page icon' again, this time in a color of your choice, so that it looks "selected." Obviously this means you will have to edit/color your image/text as you see fit. I colored my "media" icon text, the color blue for example.
4. Next up, now that you have a colored icon on screen 2, making it look selected, is to fill up screen 2 with media stuff. You can use the images he uses, or just widgets already in your phone, or the above glaeja app that looks like it can be useful here. Your widget can be text that has click actions, that open up apps etc. It looks like the OP has placed the arrow icon on this page as well as to give it more of a this is what you selected look. The options are endless.
So then you just repeat that process with icons on screen #1 that jump to the other pages of you phone, that have been edited to have the content on them you're going for. It's painstaking, but hopefully I've made a visual for you that sheds light on what is going on and once you grasp that, you can make anything.
Very creative work by the OP here, just wanted to share my thoughts for the last couple posters that are having a hard time. I can make a tutorial if necessary. :good:

Essentially, you are going to create all of your screens to have the 5 "button" vertical layout (or however you want it to be, 4 buttons, 8, etc). Your main screen, they will be all white it color (again whatever color you choose) and swipe one screen to right, have the same 5 buttons vertical, but the one icon you want to make look "selected" have it yellow, in this instance and also on that screen would be the corresponding widget with the images and icons/text you want to look like it opened. How this works it when setting launcher to no scroll on wallpaper, and setting the button as a widget action to turn to page '2', it flings the screens to screen 2, where one icon is "selected" and there is different content on the screen (the widget, ie looking like it opened a menu). search on youtube for tabbed setup for android and you'll see setups alike.

Hi! I don't remember well but I think that part of the interface has its' png's located in the framework. I just don't remember if it was framework.res or twframework.res... but that's what a themer has to deal with every time Oh and I think you already figured it out that it would change the interface in all your apps that use that kind of blue-ish tabs.

[Q][Request] Cyangenmod Keyboard APK

Hi!
I am not entirely happy with neither the stock keyboard (space bar to narrow, I.keep.hitting.period.instead) nor the Google keyboard whch is available on the Play Store (umlauts (äöü) need left or right swipes to get to because the numbers are the standard option after a longpress). However, the Cyanogenmod Keyboard fulfills both requirements.
Could someone please pull the Textinput.apk from a CM-Rom so I can replace the Google one with the CM Keyboard? Or better yet, compile the APK for me to be installed independently? I would very much apreciate the effort!
EDIT: Just tried it myself, downloaded CM, copied it to SD, installed. But the numbers are still default on a long press. Could someone please change the keyboard language to German and longpress o and u? see if 7 and 9 are the default longpress letters? thank you!

Theme changes keyboard layout

I have this problem, when I change a theme of UI, it changes google keyboard layout. I use Kitkat keyboard with CM10 Mini rom. Kitkat keyboard is the only one I like, because it doesn't use many resources and I can change long press duration. Is this problem solvable?

It should depend from them-to-theme. Which theme are you using?
tried simplex, simplex blue, lunar, ubuntu - all the same
It's seems that it's know bug.
