So, I'ld like to change the font of the widgets on my home. I'm not asking how to change fonts, I know that.
I just want to know how to know what font a widget use (for exemple DigiClock Widget) and if it's possible to give it a custom font without have to change the system font ?
Thanks

Digital clock in specific picks up ur system font. Most apps also do that, although some allow u to download market font packs and use those instead.
I know, but is there a way to know witch specific font it's using ?

Em most of the time, the apk will have an asset folder, with the font file inside it.

EDIT - geez, just realized how old this thread was... but maybe a hit by someone....
Well I made a lockscreen with my favorite Touhou character <3
The artwork is made by walfas himself~
That's how it looks.
I hope you like it~
PS: It's a transparent PNG so you have to send it via Mail to your phone or use the Windows Phone Device Manager.
Edit: Made a new one. I will update this thread with new lockscreens
I like the fact, that the transparent stuff is black at first. So I made this cute one with little Okuu and Orin~
Edit2: I just noticed, that my PNGs get converted into JPG when I upload them here D: I added links to them. You can treat the attachments as thumbnails

EDIT:
Since transparent PNGs aren't working in Mango anymore I'll post my current Utsuho Lockscreen ;P

Musashi Lock Screen
So i am a bit of a Japanese culture fan and love my Samurai so i made this one based on an illistration of him. I cannot attach it though, how did you get the jpg uploaded and avoid the file type check?
(for now i have zipped it up, just save, unzip and email it to your phone)
The attached png is for preview only, hope you like
For some reason I can't get the lockscreens to work, I did everything as it said, did I miss anything or am I supposed to do something else to the phone before I set the lockscreens? If I could get some help I would really appreciated. Thanks in advance.

you have to either email the png( image) or copy to device through windows device manager.... and set it as lockscreen... and it is black but when you touch the screen you can see through it....
THANKS!!!
Thanks. I'll go back step by step, see if I did anything wrong if not, I'll have to do it through WDM. Also can regular pics be turn into see through lockscreens? I got a couple that I would like to see as transparent in my lockscreen. Thanks again
In PhotoShop anything is possible lol if you post them to a pm I'll have a go at tweaking it.
Sent from my HD7 T9292 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Bingo!!
I just figured out why the screens didn't want to work. Apparently taking my pasword lock off was the solution. If I put the password lock back on it doesn go transparent. I guess that's the price you pay for having a great looking screen
Excuse my ignorance, but how do you go around saving this thing anyway? It only allows me to save in .jpg format when i open in my browser i.e. chrome, IE mailing the jpg to my phone doesn't seems to have the transparent effect

Save the jpeg on your desktop. Now right click on it, and open with paint (The windows paint program.) Once its open, click the file/save as, and change from jpeg to png. Now email it to your self. Open the attachment on your phone, and save as wallpaper.
Job done.

Done that, but still it doesn't gives the transparency effect =S, it just came up with white b/g. I use win 7 default paint program to convert
Windows Paint doesn't support the 6bit transparency of a 32bit png. You have to use either Photoshop, GIMP, paint.NET, etc. When you save it it has to be a 32bit PNG. Also you have to send it via mail or use the WP Device Manager. ZUNE doesn't support PNGs. The transparent stuff is black unless you touch the lockscreen.
RE: Help
Hello Everyone,
I am using paint.net software and I can't seem to get it right. Please teach me on how to do this!!!
Don't bother with it when you plan to update to Mango since it doesn't support translarent PNGs anymore. I'll post my current Lockscreen in my first post instead
RE: Transparent Lock Wallpapers
Hello Everyone...I can confirm that transparent Lock Wallpapers still work for Mango...I used paint.net to edit the wallpaper and emailed it to myself and the transparent wallpaper works...Oh and I can also confirm that using a password works with transparent wallpaper as well...
hi all.. Wizz Bar is Mini Apps tray for your tablet
essentially shortcuts to some functions some applications you are likely to need quick access to, like Browser, youtube or Note
Enjoy
It would be great if there was 'really' a way to add the phone app to the Verizon version.

No... i just want to know how to change battery icon? Not about theme.
Could u tell me step by step how to change battery icon?
ok.. I use UOT Kitchen
http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/
1 -
2 - Select your battery
3 - then Select Upload system file
4 - upload your framework-res
thats it
ok I'll try it. Thank you very much
wow, thanks a lot ssaass.
Just a q, do we have to use CWM to upload this framework res file or can we just replace it manually? (All I did was use a battery mod)
yeah just replace it ( framework res )
I tried replacing it and the battery icons became very squished. I have attached a screenshot.
Any solution?

no one have a answer about that problem ?
Is there a way to sort the bar?
It would be nice to be able to re-arrange the items without having to remove them and install in the order you want.
Thanks

I just opened the framework-res file and modified the buttons (one by one) to make them smaller (it should be a maximum of 16 px wide, I made them 16*38). There is usually a waste of space on the left and right sides.
not elegant, but a solution. If you want I can upload my framework-res for you.
thx my dear friend omarrabbat
i wanna just Battery icon like this

That icon is too wide, much wider than 16 px. It will look very ugly squished down.
I don't really have the skills/time to do much, but I have used these icons
. They were small enough to fit in the constraint that Samsung have made.
I have also attached my framework-res.apk
Edit: if you want to manually make your own, you need to open the framework-res file on your PC (use 7zip) and change the battery PNGs one by one. Use a software like GIMP (free) or PhotoShop (definitely not free), not MS Paint because it doesn't support transparency.
Apologies asking this here... but any idea when Wizz Bar is going to get ICS support?
Hello, im trying to make my own theme for xperia devices (android 4.4) and i want to make it dark/black, now im kinda stuck with my theme because i dont know how to change font color of texts in message app, settings, contacts, alarm, and basically all system apps that can be affected by theme. I have changed most of backgrounds and now this bothers me so much, i have wanted to make theme as i would like to use but its not really that much usable if i dont change font color, i appreciate any help.
Im sorry if this is not right place to post question, if its against the rules report to admins so they can move it to other forum.
Please tell me which device you have and I will move it for you to the correct forum

Check all xmls in res folders and you'll see font color.
Set those lines to white HEX codes colors.
When we are talking about system fonts, or font color in settings you will have to edit few files more.
It's to big thing to say in one post but try to search a bit and you'll find tutorials.
Try to search for editing smali, font color in settings and android theming

Yes, that gives one a headache.
You need to edit the overlay XMLs for a lot of themed APKs, the color.xml.
It's a bit of a detective work and trial and error.
One thing that will make your head explode is the fact that "semc_text_color_primary" in com.sonyericsson.uxp also sets the color for search and edit text boxes. I have managed to controle the color of search boxes by making overlay XMLs for some layout-XMLs and styles for framework-res, but the edit-text boxes still folows "semc_text_color_primary".
I will go into detalis when i get the time in a new thread. I will post a theme you can use as base when time is in my favour.

Thank you for a reply.
I was busy last few days, sorry for a late reply.
I agree with you, it is really messed up to use one color for every system text, if i set white (since most background graphics are black) then i cant see anything on dialer because of white background. I have made another test theme with blue/white/gray details and its simple to use blue text in any app, but since there is a lot of people who would like to enjoy black theme (unfortunately Xperia E1 have non aosp roms) its too bad that making a useful black theme could be that hard.
Im waiting for your new thread, in meantime i will try to find a solution.
Hey Guys,
can anyone help me to get rid of the clock on the lockscreen? I don't want a big ass clock there!!! just a regular clock on the statusbar would be good enough. I just wanna have the Lockscreen to my wallaper.
For any help/advice/tips on how to achieve this I would be very grateful. I hope I don't have to decomplie systemui or anything.... maybe thru the new themes function? I saw they can change the font color and so on... maybe setting it to 100% transparency?
with help of a xposed module called Costum Text I was able to get rid of the text at the bottom saying something like swipe to unlock! U know my s6 is set to german and in german the swipe to unlock text is like 2 full sentences!!! Who needs that? like WTF? as if someone after using his phone for 5 minutes hasn't already figured out how to unlock his phone!!! am i the only one who thinks that about the text @ the bottom?

Haha, luckily for you. I created a small app using tasker to disable the wallpaper and clock and enable it if like. but you need root.
Just unzip the file and install the apk within.
EDIT: Please explain more on how to use custom text to disable " swipe screen to unlock "?

So u just install costum text and choose the app u want to change the text for in this case it's systemui. There u will be presented with bubbles where u can put in the original text that u want to change. Fox example u put in Swipe screen to unlock it has to be 1:1 like Swipe not swipe. And then u just put a blank space in the new text field if u want it to disappear, otherwise u can also put anything u want. Everything to take effect u click on the three dots in the right top corner and select Relaunch App and that's it! I also got rid of plug in text.....

Wow so glad I opened this thread! So the only thing that's left is the Phone Icon but i think that can be solved by setting the transparency to 100% of that Icon which should be in systemui or the systemui theme apk... I will have a look at this in few days I need access to a windows machine and I hope samsung uses .png's and not this qmg shiz.... the shortcut will be still intact but at least not visible which is still good enough for me.

Hahaha, very good idea. I hope you succeed because i use themes on my phone. And previously lollipop v5.0.2 I was able to take out the qmg from the theme\lock-1\base.apk and convert to png, make it transparent and put back the png into the apk without decompiling. That work, camera and ecall was transparent. Now if i try it with the new themes on lollipop 5.1.1 the apk fails toe work and the default theme is loaded.
So yes, if you can change the systemui for lock screen then it would be superb..:good:
But i am glad to help.
