Hi guys,
When I put a picture as the today's wallpaper, the picture is lighter than normal.
Is there anyway to fix it and get the real picture colors ?
Thx
yep, use eg. resco picture viewer or resize your pictures to 240x320 and 320x240, rename them to tdywater_240_320.gif and tdywater_320_240.gif and copy/ overwrite in \windows. soft reset and you are done!
ps. it is needed to have it saved as a .gif!
Or just keep it simple!
Open the picture in the default "pictures & videos", and choose "Set as Today Background". Then it will ask you how much white you wanna have.

If you set the image under settings/today, thats what you will get. For some reason it uses a transparency value (nowhere to change this here).
The best and easiest solution I have found, is to open the Camera, and view the Album. Browse to the image you want, click it and keep it pressed so that the context menu comes up, select "Set as Today Background...". This will show you the image, and allow you to set the transparency level. Set it to zero, and the image in the Today Background will look exactly as it should.
Works with the Album->Set Picture as Background
Thx guys !
I have a tranperent image which I would like to keep as my background for my lockscreen. By default colour of the lockscreen is black. Is there a way to make it transperent or at least change the background colour of the lockscreen?
Ask in the correct section! We have a Topaz Q&A Forum for a reason!

It depends on what ROM you're on. Newer ROMs have Lockscreen Wallpaper selection under Settings Tab\Personalize.

I do have that option but it only allow's me to set the image as a wallpaper. But the image that i have is transperent and if i set this image as my wallpaper in the lockscreen, it takes the background colour of the lockscreen which is black. I want to change this colour or rather make it transperent so that my background becomes my today screen.
Anybody with a solution?
I think you would have to develop your own lockscreen.
You could take an existing one and decompile it and see if you can tweak the files.

Basically, you take a lockscreen cab file (search for "Dusk" or "Hashuan" Lockscreen or just lockscreen for your WM version), open the cab using cab programs such as WinCE Cab manager and extract the files. Once you have extracted the files you can browse for the png, bmp or jpgs that tweak them to whatever you want. One issue you may find is that (AFAIK) only jpgs will support transparency so if you find that the background image is in another format, it won't work.
Its a good idea to install the lockscreen first so you know what's what in the image files and also retain the original file names and structure to ensure continuity.
....or, you can just ask a developer (prob w/ a small donation) to make one for you if it's even possible...

and i modify the titanium.cpr file using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=525499 to enlarge the size of the slideshow.
you have to use notepad++ to move the line of the slideshow inside the CAnalog to the first line of the expanded line. if not the slideshow will cover the rest of the info inside the titanium bar.
take alook at my titanium.cpr file
As always, use at your own risk!

BecauseI know I'm not theonly one whowants tounderstandit a lot,I'll showyoua way.Inspirationand ideasI got from this article. Huawei EMUI Themes gestalten und verändern [Teil 1]
What is needed:
- 7zip
- Sublime Text 3
Here we go. The prerequisite is time to rest and work accurately!
After you have installed the two programs are set to go.
Think up a folder where the issues come in here (.hwt). Always works only with copies!
Here you should create a subfolder with the topic name you now. There you unpacked the topic. Go into that folder and subfolders again sets each with the appropriate name. example:
com.android.settings = com.android.settings e
So you keep track of things.
The repeated her with the topic, which ye icons, etc you want to have.
Now comes the actual act. Take the issue of the want to edit it, in my case, Edward Returns.hwt and clicks it right (not extract!), Just select Open.
Next, locate the com.android.settings and open it again.
Here again open the res folder. Here delete the contents (click there and delete right).
Now we take the topic from which we want the icons. Also re-open and click through to the folder res. Now we select the content and push it, hold by the left, into the folder from another topic. We confirm the prompt with Yes. Now is the content in the other folder. Now we can both close, confirm the prompt with Yes and we already did it. Only on Mate7, select and look the topic. If you want, you can even assign a name. For the description.xml with Sublime Text 3 Open Notepad and then copy into the theme.
You can also use your own icons here on size, format and name eighth! It is also possible to take files from other themes if they do not exist.
Of course, goes even more, color etc, but you will still need to edit the corresponding .XML files.
Here are a few paths:
- Contacts com.android.contacts
- Gallery com.android.gallery3d: Here lies the Gallery widget.
- Player com.android.mediacenter: Here the player is widget.
- Settings com.android.settings: Here is what you see under settings and submenus.
- Links com.android.systemui: Here is what you see Status Bar / Benarichtigungen / Verküpfungen.
- Designs com.huawei.android.thememanager: Here is what you see under Themes.
- Clock / weather widget
com.huawei.android.totemweather / res
drawable-nodpi: Here are the wallpapers
drawable-sw360dp-xxhdpi: Here are the symbols
- Icons icons: This is what you see on the homescreen icons.
Thanks , i would like to create a theme for me, a dark one, simple and clear but unfortunately, i really didnt understand the procedure Is it possible for you to make a step by step guide ? Taking the default theme and changing it ?
I need one with dark toggle background, and white toggles, the one selected blue or red.
Than the notifications background black and white text and icons.
on settings , dark background and white text + icons.
So sorry i dont understand , i would have tried to make some themes
Thanks !
For the font you need to edit the corresponding XML files. This is tedious. It is easier to look for the best ducks already in coarse threads and replace only the background, symbols etc is.
A Guide for the XML I'm not going to write, which is too complex, as there is also still required Chinese.
You can read here.

Or here keeping an eye out for suitable topics.

Thank you dude !
cool instruction
i also want to edit this specific theme Edward Returns for my Ascend p7, the theme is as of now only for Mate 7 it cant be found on p7 online themes, so i downloaded this theme and installed on my p7, everything is as it should be except the icons, the system Apps icons are well, but the apps that i have installed their icons dont fit in the icon frame of the theme, they are bigger than the theme icons so they come on top of the frame, but some of the Apps that have smaller icons i can see the icon frame of the theme behind them. So i wanna know if it is possible to resize the icons so they fit the icon frame? and how it can be done?
Thanks in advance :good:
Unpack theme, edit icons and then copy the unzipped not matter.
Does anyone know how to change the background color in Messeges? i have a really cool theme but there is some error in its Messages App the background is white while the timestamp in the left side is also in white color so i can read the time... i dont know which line in themes.xml should i change????
Unfortunately, I do not quite understand you. The background images are. Just as the symbols of the timeline. About the xml you lay down only the text color and the assignment.
can you help me of that modified whatsapp called WhatsMaap changing icon cause it looks so bad because the whatsapp icon is circle so there is a black or green background the app icon
this is the app dude : https://plus.google.com/communities/111022663413469989470
I need to modify the text colour of notifications into NOTIFICATION PANNEL.
Not the standard text you find below email notification or whatsapp notifications, just the ones poping up with text surrounded by circle and asking to close a particular application consuming too much battery, for example.
Actually these notifications text are in black and, since the background is black, they aren' t readeble at all, while the others notifications (i.e. whatsapp notifications, email notifications, etc. etc.) are properly in white (see picture attached).
Considering that I need to keep the background as black, I would need to modify the notifications text colour only, from black to....white, or light blue, or other which result more readable on the black background.
I tried to edit and modify the hwt file, as well as the XML file contained into the com.android.systemui file, but unsuccesfully.
Can you explain me which file and line I must modify in order to have fixed this?
None can help me??? Fooox1, Kolembo,Hannanzikrea, please assist.
I've edited the stat_sys_battery_15.png file on a theme, but every time my phone goes down to that level the battery icon reverts to stock. All other times the battery icon displays the custom one. Anyone know why and/or how to fix this?

You should add another .png file with name stat_sys_battery_15_new.png and stat_sys_battery_7_new.png

Here's my modified theme Dark Knight v3.2.9. Some bug fix for Honor 6.
Hi.
There is a way to change the background when I use the smart cover? I mean the window on the right I can see with the smart cover...
Thanks in advance.
Without root you have to change the design in the design app. You can also create your own with apps.
With root you can replace the file, I don't have the correct name, because I deleted it for having a black background, inside the directory "ROOT/data/themes/0/wallpaper"

My phone is no root: can you please tell me which is the design app and the apps I can use to create new ones?
Thanks again
The "Designs" app is a pre installed system app. There you can choose your lockscreen wallpaper, which should also change the smart lock background.
With EMUI Theme Editor you can make your own theme.
I've tried but it changes only the standard background and not the smart lock one, that's why I opened the 3d and made the question...
With the EMUI Theme Editor change the S-View image. You have to crop it to the right size inside the editor before you save the theme. This should work, I've tested it a few minutes ago.
This is another EMUI thing that should be fixed by Huawei, but they don't mind what they're users want to have in the next updates.
I've tried and it works!
Thanks a lot [emoji6]
