Guest H3ROS Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 @ jikobutsu When you can't find it in SystemUI then it's probably in framework-res.apk, unfortunately :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tillaz Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 quick tip for finding and changing hex colours in a .xml 1] decompile the .apk 2] now find the hex colour that is been used that you wish to change, the way i do this is by going to the root of your project in apk manager etc. and searching .xml in the top right of the window, this brings up every xml there is in the apk. providing you have notepad ++ installed drag and highlight all the .xml you just searched... now right click and open with notepad ++ this should open them all in in tabs, now its easy.. just use the search tab at the top, and press the find button, search # and press "find all in open documents" this will bring up a list of all the hex colours been used in all the xml, now you can go threw them to find the colour you want to change.. i do this by opening gimp and copying and pasting the hex codes in to gimp colour selector so i can see what the colour is, (without the first 3 didgets #FF ) once you find the hex code of the colour you wish to change, do a new search for this in all open documents like above.. for example search 3535b3 this will show you everywhere that colour is used you can then use the replace tap to change all instantness of that colour to your new colour with one click this might seem like a lot but once you pick it up it take's seconds, and .xml editing becomes much faster EDIT: fixed typos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tillaz Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Thanks for tips dude :) What you think so far ? looks really cool did you try white seek_thumbs, i think this would look sweat, up to you though keep up the good work, its great to see other people learning and producing new themes and mods for the fourms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) Cheers I will do that.The theme is a long way off finished,as your Atomic mod is detailed. If this was to be a theme for atomic,I would need to theme all the apps you have themed too. Plenty of work to be doing :lol: I will try what you said on previous page,sounds more complicated,but I can see how that would be an easier option.

I was quite surprised how a few build.prop tweaks can have such a great effect on performance.The stock rom was really laggy,but after a few tweaks,it is nearly as responsive as AtomicMod.I done it all on my skate using X-Plore app,what an amazing app that is. Anyway,hows R14 coming along? loving the look of the new status bar. Edited April 6, 2012 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there some kind of guide for building roms? I normally look on xda to pick up tips & tricks,that's where I found all the build.prop tweaks.One I really like is for disabling adb notify,that really annoys me.lol.

Guest cryoglobe Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Format the ext partition in clockwork mod under the advanced menu, this should change the format, you won't be able to restore the apps you had before but it should be good for the future Hello razzmataz1478 I was really motivated to restart from scratch and have all this working ... but there is something not ok .. ( or I still miss something ) What I did .. 1: in clockworkmod ( I have 4.0.1.4 ) : advanced I only see one menu that concerns the partition : "Partition SD card" , then choose of the size "512" .. and waiting some time Result : full format of my sd ( not really expected ) ... with a 2nd partition of the size of 512Mb 2 : As R13 support the 2 Mb of cache .. I restarted the phone to apply the new TPT for the sizing of the partitions. 3 : Install of the R13 4 : reboot ( first boot ) of the R13 .. seems ok .. 5 : reboot in recovery to make a nand backup with a fresh R13 but already configured .. And now .. the message : Could not mount sd-ext. sd-ext backup may not be supported on this device. Skipping backup of sd-ext :( So .. I think I'm back in my start point ... with the same issue to backup and easy restore my apps beeing located in the 2nd partition !! Right ? ( why is it not "supported ?

Flash a rom, then back it up and see if it has no compatibility issues.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boot into clockwork mod, advanced partition SD card and select your amount. Flash a rom, then back it up and see if it has no compatibility issues.. What will be the difference between the "partition SD card" ( that seems to have cleanup everything and create two partitions ) and minitool ? For the partition SD card option in CWM ... i cannot choose the type of partition .... what should I pick in minitool ? ( ext2 3 or 4 or fat ) ? Thanks PS ... even with a resize of the partition ( systm / cache / data ) , a simple R13 without even a restore of my settings .. I still have an issue with the GPS ... that really have issue to fix the signal ... for a travel of 30 min in open space ... If I got a valid signal 3 times for 15 seconds , it's a lot.. --> why ??

Guest tillaz Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 my goal is to make the theme look exactly like stock ICS lol iv started re-writing all the layouts and stuff, here are some early pics of where i am at, still o long way to go these screenshots are just the very start, if you want to see what it will be like when finished Google some ICS screenshots bare in mind that this is still a mess and nowhere near finished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boot into clockwork mod, advanced partition SD card and select your amount. Flash a rom, then back it up and see if it has no compatibility issues.. Ok ... i tried it ... minitool to murge and have only one partition ( fat ) in CWM , partition of SD ... with 512Mb 0 for swap After than ... I already face a issue ... when I want to go in the SD to find a zip to install R13 .. ( file that will anyway not be there because of the partitionning of the SD ) I have an error , as if the sd is not properly mounted ... To have access to the SD where the R13 zip file is .... I have to "reboot recovery" But then again ... the sd-ext will gives issues at backup time ... in the log I see : "failed to mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (invalid argument) I'm starting to be lost ( and tired ) ... I think I only have one remaining possibility : stop using Link2sd .. or stop changing Roms on my skate when I'll have it re-installed( lets hope R14 will be there ... and ok ) Edited April 7, 2012 by cryoglobe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
