[RESOURCE] Modding Sense 6 - Sprint HTC One (M8)

I posted this thread in the International M8 forum, but since there are some awesome themers on the Sprint side, figured I'd crosspost it here, get your input as well.
Feel free to post comments in this thread to help keep it alive, but if you've any stuff to add please click through and add them to the main thread so it's easier for me to index stuff. If a passing mod feels like making this a sticky, then I could close the thread and keep the International one as the main thread. ​
So Sense 6 is finally here, and it brings with it another round of the cat and mouse game that HTC loves to play with XDA themers.
Veteran HTC themers will know that each version of Sense brings new challenges, and sadly Sense 6 is no exception. I had made a bunch of reference guides for Sense 5.5, but other than sending out the Dropbox link, never got around to doing much with them.
I figured this time I'd hit the ground running and create a central thread where we could all share what we've found, rather than scattered posts in various mod/theme/rom threads.
Please feel free to add any theming stuff you find while exploring Sense 6, requests for help etc. Pictures of your themes/mods are welcome, provided you are also explaining how you did them if the info isn't already posted in the thread.

Interested in modding blinkfeed or prism grid, I think lockscreen may need it too, so that 420dpi works fitting icons/widgets wise.

@fisha21 thank you for all the contributions you've made, a lot of themers have used your guides and definitely made theming easier. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread for when I start theming my m8.

Ah yes, that screen is just crying out for a higher dpi. I'll have to look into that at some point, unless you crack it first!

Thanks for the awesome guide @fisha21. Going to check out a bunch of the links. Have you had any time to look at the keyboard? Just wondered if it pulls images from somewhere else now or if the buttons are actually just color xmls now. I guess I'll have to learn how to use vts now, because when I decompile the HTC-IME.apk with apktool I get some really weird stuff going on. Thanks in advance and appreciate all of this info.

I haven't actually looked into IME at all yet, but I have been told that all the colours etc have been moved back to xml, not in smali like Sense 5.5. Have also been told that the keys are indeed now a colour in colors.xml. Thanks to @Mr Hofs and @Basil3 for those tips!

Nice we get a thread too and didnt ray just solve the problem with the keyboard not sure if saw that or not but i thought i did.

Haha, of course...always room for our Sprint cousins at the party. Think the fix Ray posted was for the background of the word suggestion panel. Don't think anyone's posted details of all the IME stuff yet, although sounds like some of the stuff might be similar to my Sense 5.5 guide in the dropbox folder link in the OP?
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Oh yeah I posted a new tutorial in the m8 threads, which a few people requested: on how to move the signal cluster and how to move each part of the signal cluster and also how to add the operator ID to the statusbar. :good:

Yea, very interested in getting 420dpi or something to work properly with prism launcher. Stopped scaling proper in sense 5.x.

Cool and thank you. I finally got the keyboard where i can decompile/compile it. Had to fix all of the broken images to get to that point, thanks to reading your main thread to figure that out. Now i gotta try and figure out how to direct the key background to an image instead of color in values/colors, so we can really make them stand out. Thanks again for your help and everyone that has contributed to the reference guide.

I'm trying to move the horizontal eqs to the bottom of the status window.

[Theme] Frost for AOSP Rom

so im new to the whole developing thing but i did make a tweaked version of frost using various parts of other themes that works with the aosp magic rom. if anyone wants to try it out let me know. i will be sure to give credit where its due once i compile a list of all the people involved in making the orginals.i will also add that the only actual editing of any sort that i did was of the services.jar to make the foont on the notifications bar white instead of black.
(I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your phone.)
Things themed in zip:
Framework-res.apk
TWFramework-res.apk
New Fonts
Settings.apk
Youtube.apk
also added...

Don't include setCPU. The developer has asked for it not to be distributed in roms and/or themes.
Just giving you a heads up.
my bad lol. i remember reading that now that you mention it. like i said. new to this. thanks for the heads up.
Post a copy.. I like it, i'll try it out. I have been looking for a clear notification bar with the black type of theme.
So I can't actually post links but the semi url in the post is the link out at least it should be ;-)

I downloaded the theme and like it alot. A couple of suggestions to make it better though:
-When downloading apps the font is black on gray and is really hard to read, if it was white it would be much better
-I'd love to see the stock lockscreen thrown in the ROM if possible
-The green font is kind of neat in the menus but, having the green text entry box limits your theming options
I will take a look at these things and see if I can make those changes. Probably won't be until tomorrows though. Kinda busy...

where is the link?
I like this! Diggin the status bar and icons ++1, wanna see more of this
do we install this thru cwm?
This makes the AOSP look fantastic!
Three issues:
- The bold seems to be forced to non-bold, as an app I have which normally lists unread in bold and read in non-bold, which now lists ALL entries in non-bold, now.
- The green subtext in settings is tough to read and detracts from the larger white titles, as they are now non-bold. A grey would be better served instead of green, and re-bold the text.
- The download notification text is black and is nearly hidden. Making it white or light grey is best, here.
Thanks for making the AOSP ROM look less like a 1994 era HTML page and more like a modern UI
Am i missing the dl or link?

This is especially annoying in Gmail since new emails are shown in bold. Also the stock lockscreen can be found over in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=793479&highlight=deodex. It works fine since ASOP magic is already deodexed.

it is more than likely the font that i have installed im going to start taking a look at all these other things right now. probably have an update and/or another zip for the stock font tonight. thanks for all the input btw. considering this is my first attempt at anything im glad to see that for the most part it is liked.
Any updates coming soon? I'd love to keep this theme, but the lack of bold is killing me

I have a flashable zip i made for someone a while back with just the stock font if you want to use it in the meantime. It will give you back bold.

Frost with bold and no extra apps
I love this Frost theme, but hated losing bold and had no use for the added apps included, so I made a stripped down version with bold support.
Contains:
FONT: Zegoe (Light and normal) font -- so bold is less bold and normal is really light, taking up less pixel space per character
No extra apps
Original Frost theming changes
Simply flash through recovery as always
Thanks! I will have to try this when I get home.

Not very nice... I was pretty quiet when you used my work in the RC Mix Thread, but this here is a real joke.
1. You highjacked my complete code from Revolution Theme, that took me countless hours
2. You used the idea from my screenshots of Honey HD in various threads
3. You used complete framework, HTC resources and systemui from my Revolution Theme and only changed a few png
4. You used my inverted facebook and gmail plus other apps incl Twitter, where you did not even try to change the green highlights against Honeycomb blue
5. You even left my green highlights and progressbar from Revolution Theme
6. You left Revolution green menu and green headlines, which do not really match
I could go on like this more and more. All other guys here ask when they need something and they will confirm, that they get all info incl. Detailed instruction for codes. You never asked, just grabbed my work and sold it as yours and never asked. I certainly see that small credit, but that really does not explain, what happens here. So whoever knows Revolution Theme, just flash this here and you will see. Who knows coding, download both themes, compare and you will see what I'm talking about.

You can sent a pm to this Guy Captainkrtek....
He is responsible for these issues here in xda....
He contacted me when i opened about 3 months before THIS THREAD, in which i'm explaining what exactly happened when liamstears suddenly took all my themed apps (about 70 of them) and all my icons from framework-res.apk an com.htc.resources.apk of my Mixed_Theme and he made his theme with name Theme Animation 3.6.0...
I think some people want the Glory without working at all......
That will never stop....
P.S. I am themer too, and i have a very very good cooperation with he_stheone64.... I have used many of his code, but after i asked him, after he consulted me and of course i gave him all the GREDITS he deserves for his very very hard work he made in coding, in .xml files......
So i have to say that he_stheone64 is one of the best people i have met here in xda and he is surely the OpenSource guy, as he shares his work with anyone he ask him.... So after a research all he wrote here are all true, as i compared this theme with he_stheone64's Revolution Theme and all i have to say is that this theme is the same (so it's obviously a highjacked theme) with he_stheone64's Revolution Theme with very little exceptions....
So my proposion to everyone he want to THEME.... Make your OWN WORK... This is the rule... and don't forget that OpenSource has still copyrights....

Sharing yes, stealing no. In any case Honeycomb is not green, so obviously you have been a bit lazy... But since I soon release my completely blue version, just go ahead and take what you need from there, since you will do that anyway. Why learn coding and designing with Illustrator and PhotoShop, if grabbing my work is so much easier...

I have nothing else to say... cause probably you just don't understand the differences between Open Source and when taking most of someone's else work without even ask the person from which you took almost all codes.....
It`s more than awfull!!! Man Don`t say Android is OpenSource cause OpenSource is one thing and good behaviour second one ...

He_stheone... You are right, it is your work. Could you make a version compatible with the rcmix roms. You could do it once then give permissions to someone to upgrade for different versions. I had the full version of this when using a mike Rom, but all I get is force closes. But the look was awesome, just as you intended. This version detracts little. It's s part copy dude, needs finishing.
Kalagas, you are legend as well.
Thank you both for your contributions. Please keep going.

It`s ready since a week and my friends Thyrus and segelfreund have the Beta since quite a while on their DHD. That theme is completely independent and coded for blue and appr. 1000 different pngs in order to have a true Honeycomb experience. The popups are also all dark with that nice glow and all AOSP widgets have the same glow plus HTC widgets are square. The only reason I did not relase it yet are FC issues with RCMix and the upcoming final Gingerbread, so I want to avoid porting 3 themes at the same time on too many leaked versions.

Open the MTZ file with winrar, extract the lockscreen via winrar again and just change the image over making sure that the name is the same. if you are looking to edit the images use photoshop or you will loose any transparency on the images please note you may need to compress the file .. if you are not sure how this is done follow these steps http://forums.miuiandroid.com/showthread.php?8202-MIUI-Theme-How-To-1.7.8
Thread now updated ( 03/08/11 )with Round icons
Request will be taken and actioned ASAP
Thank you for the requests i will post the updates on Saturday
Very nice, I like the look of round lockscreen icons although imo I think they'd look better without the text labels beneath them. The megaupload link is down.
Plus, a little confused by the browser icon. It looks more suited as icon for compass!
Also, maybe a cosmetic bug. Quite often it shows a flat red line (no signal or is it low signal) while flat red line I had a 5 min phone call perfectly fine.

thank you for pointing out about the browser icon i will change that ASAP also megaupload link should now be working fine.
Also i will edit the file on friday evening and i will clear the writing underneath icons.
PS do you prefer the lockscreen with a round background or would you prefer no background (Transparent)
please see a few new updated lockscreens these are uploaded but i have not yet changed previews in the theme folder i will do this ASAP... Thank you all for your patience
The shortcut icons do look better with a round background. I've had the lockscreen before with transparent background and it just doesnt look right, as if the icons are out of place.

Hi
Another thing I've noticed is when I apply the theme, the lockscreen icons are different to the same app icons when screen unlocked.
Could you please rectify
i take it you mean the app within the ring when you drag this down.... this was because i had just transfered the same ring to all roms again can be changed it isnt a big job its just a matter of a little photoshop ill sort it soon
Ok thanks, appreciate all the effort.

Beautiful Widgets: HTC Sense UI Skin
Woah nice job! I would totally use this, although lately I've been running without the superclock, due to the fact that there's already a clock on the lock screen and the top right corner. But wow, you don't see alot of skins of this quality within the BW app! Nice!
One thing I've been looking for is a superclock skin with the same font as the D3 lock screen. My fave font! Modern and simple.

Do you know the name of the font used? or where i could look in the system dump to find it? I can make one using that font.
Edit: Nevermind I Found It.

Heres a new one with the same font that is used on the lockscreen. Enjoy!
Not bad, are the skins hard to make? I've been thinking about making my own BW Skins and Themes. Just don't know if I have the patience to bust out Photoshop working so much.

It pretty much depends on what you are doing, this took me about 3 hours because of the level of detail involved, I took the system dump, extracted the apk files until i found the .9.png that was used for the widget backgrounds, and i copied every single line and gradient down the pixel, so that takes a while. But many of my others where fairly simple. It also depends on your level of skill with Photoshop and you knowledge of the tools, I've been using Photoshop for many years, so I'm very familiar with it.
Plus loading it on the phone every time you make a small change can be a little annoying at times...

I'll give it a try eventually, lol.. I've got 6 years experience as a freelance designer and developer. I've just gotten to the point where if it isn't making me money I don't like to open up the programs.
This is now available to download from the application! I have also created a gingerblur toggle skin to match, which is also available! Enjoy!
Thank you so much for the skin. It looks great!
1 question though. My weather skin is still in stock and doesn't look like the one you are posting.
Would you mind posting your weather skin as well?
Thanks!

[THEME]Full Theme Red/Blue/BrownGold Completely revamped 08/18/2015

This will work on any rom except AOSP and CM12. I'm posting this now so you can get rid of that stock UI, I'm doing about 3 more apk's then a much more formal posting will be put up.
I also themed the HTC 9 camera that is available, the M9 has many more features, and takes much better pics than the Google camera. A seperate link will be posted below. I did not create the Zip,and i take no credit for it's creation, I just themed it. I don't want donations, but if you can HIT THE THANKS BUTTON I would really appreciate it.
If you allow app updates for any of the themed apk's it will untheme that apk, so uninstall updates for that particular app and the theme will return, i've done lot's of app updates, and hardly ever do I notice a difference in the app.
I completely revamped this on July 26. Colors are better blended, and took out some of the Gold, and removed some red. Hope you try it out, you will be impressed Also, make sure that your main Google app is updated or it will FC after flash
Themed M9 Camera.
Framework
Contacts
Calculator
System UI
Dialer
Settings
Calendar.
Flash in recovery, reboot and enjoy.
Download Link for M9 Camera: http://d-h.st/8BRf
Link for both odex and deodex: http://d-h.st/z1IC
More APK's and a more formal post to come in a couple days. Attention to detail was a constant in making this, and it looks great on the phone. Hope you enjoy.
none
This will liven up your phone considerably
will you make other themes?
none
Eventually yes, this one took almost 3 weeks so I need to recover a bit before I start another one. I just got calendar done and it looks awesome, I will post that tonight or tommorow morning

I don't see what difficulty / learning curve has to do with color scheme.

What does me not liking your theme have to do with my theme making ability (or lack thereof)? Next you'll tell me that I can't say "Nickelback sucks" because I can't play guitar.
You asked for thoughts... so I shared mine. If you're going to create things and ask for feedback, you shouldn't get your feelings hurt so easily.

I must agree with Ryjabo here. This is just constructive criticism coming from another graphical designer, but the color scheme is horrendous.
I do see the work you put in and everything you have themed and you have amazing potential to create amazing themes, just work on the color scheme to make it something elegant. This is an elegant device, the theming should represent and complement that designing style.
Look at other themes posted both on here and the Play Store to get some coloring ideas. Don't copy those themes, just use them as a base for your own creation.

ummm....
protip 1: avoid mixing blue and red [emoji14]
and avoid mustard color altogether
Thanks for sharing though, you have potential as a themer and with enough practice (and less contrasts in your color schemes) you could end up making some nice looking work [emoji106]
Musicman may not be a professional designer, but as graphic artists.... We should lend suggestions or constructive criticism to help him as he makes his way into the material based GPE rather then just calling it ugly. As @DarK_DemoN stated he has potential he knows how to use VTS and work his way through the xml, its just getting the color scheme down.
Is cyanide 5.1.1 ROM deodex or odex ROM? Trying to figure out which theme link I need to flash

Everything is so subjective when trying to determine what colors to use, what 5 people hate, 5 more people may really like so in a way picking out the proper colors is tough. If people took the time to flash it they may like it, a few screenshots can't paint the whole picture.
I don't mind at all constructive criticism, but to bark out "it's ugly" I must admit set me off a bit. LP was very hard to theme, and a great deal of time was put into that and I realize not everyone is going to like it.
Thank you for the input

Do the colors you like and if someone wants to use your theme they will. I applaud you for theming LP. Nice work.
