Guest partner2 Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 (edited) Hello world :) I've managed to make a honeycomb theme CorvusVegaRom 0.5 and Corvus 5 Rom. It's based in a theme for Samsung Spica from Samdroid forum (thanks Ares12 and rrrulo). It has not only statusbar icons but a lot of other stuff. I suggest to use VTL Launcher with the ADW Honeycomb theme for the desktop. To use install the zip from the recovery http://www.multiupload.com/O39UWBEZKI Enjoy it P.S. thanks to Corvus, Ares12 and rrrulo P.P.S. If you like my work you can buy a beer to any of the above users :) P.P.P.S Sorry for my english Edited April 24, 2011 by partner2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MaxiP Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Nice theme but one or 2 issues; when I installed it, it removed my Google account settings so they had to be re-added text under widgets is slightly too big meaning that some labels don't look right (OK for icons though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that, all is OK. Could you attach a screenshot about the widgets's problem? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MaxiP Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Don't think it's VTL as they appeared OK before I change the theme. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FrownBreaker Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 .........I'm trying to make an update zip for recovery, but at the moment it doesn't work for me (any help would be nice.......... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=796474 says "Main .zip { META-INF { com -> google -> android -> update-script } ( <- these are folders inside the META-INF except update-script this is a script file) app (if the file you want to flash is an app it goes in this folder) framework (if the file you want to flash is a framework file it goes in this folder) system (if the file you want to flash is a system file (start up animations) it goes in this folder also make sure you put the correct subfolder inside this folder ie: if your file goes in system -> media make sure you put the file you wish to flash in a correctly named subfolder other wise it will flash into just the system folder and not into the correct folder within the system folder on your phone.) } After your folder structure is set up you must tell clockwork which folder or folders in the zip to flash. To do this open the update-script from the zip with a text editor and modify or add these lines with the correct folders. copy_dir PACKAGE:framework SYSTEM:framework (use this for the framework folder) copy_dir PACKAGE:app SYSTEM:app (use this for the app folder) copy_dir PACKAGE:system SYSTEM:system (use this for the system folder) Then sign your zip and flash."

Guest partner2 Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 I've tested it (with the lite version) and it's working for me. Maybe you can add the widgets again...

Guest Jisonga Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Not only was honeycomb easy to install but it looks great mate and i am very pleased with the results of your hard work. Thanks. Jason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BlackCat^ Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 (edited) Looks great, nice job. How feasible is it for the status bar to be moved to the bottom of the screen and the button ordering be moved to fully replicate the Honeycomb bar? Would look fantastic if this were possible. Edit: I have just seen this on the CM7 with HC tweaks ROM so it is possible, but anyone know how easy this is to implement for Corvus ROM?

Guest rubbery Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 First post updated, now you can install it through the recovery (thanks FrownBreaker). Please test. Sorry for tripple post :) This failed when trying to install it with the latest version of clockwork mod. Said something about that style of update not supported from v3.0 clockwork onwards. Could you please add the adb steps back to this thread too as I put your theme on and have now moved to latest version of clockwork and corvus5 and really want the theme back!!

Guest partner2 Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 I'm in my computer, so it's not tested: adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework adb push Music.apk /system/app adb push DownloadProvider.apk /system/app This failed when trying to install it with the latest version of clockwork mod.

Was it your framework file that had the nice 'android' boot animation? I'm sure it came up when i installed your theme on corvus0.5 but on corvus5 it doesn't display. Not a big deal just wanted to mention it. Thanks again for sharing your work it is very much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest partner2 Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Updated first post. Now working in new recovery. By the way, you're right. The boot animation is missing with the new Corvus rom. I Don't when I'll have time to look at that. It's easter holidays here :) Perfect, thank you.

I Don't when I'll have time to look at that. It's easter holidays here :) The custom boot animation that is bundles with Corvus5 overrides any "Simple Boot" logo that exits in the framework. To get around this, you can remove or rename the Corvus5 boot animation (/system/media/bootanimation.zip) and the system will then fall back on whatever it finds in the framework. Hope that helps! newbe5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that it's a mod for Nook, but they don't explain how to port it... Edit: I've bottom statusbar working. Stay tunned. At a guess, you've done this with a change to framework.jar? Be careful with this if that is the case, and do a Dalvik wipe after you push the replacement (it will probably rebuild Dalvik after a reboot anyway). Replacing the framework.jar modifies the very core of the way that Android displays, so be sure it's working correctly and always back up first! :) I#ll be interested to see this if it's working, did you just grab the framework.jar from the Nook mod, or have you rebuilt it with apktool? newbe5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
