Attn: all themers new ADW theme Template FTW

[bgill55]

for those of you that make themes ADW has released a new theme template that will really complete your theme. there is a Shade.xml that you can and a color shade to the app drawer so no matter what app your users load they will all have the same tone to it!!! you have to build the theme in Eclipse!


here are screens for my Incognito Theme!! now Get to Work!!!!










here is the Link to the Template

stuff about R cannot be used as variable or something like that, im really new with eclipse,can we do this with a different way.

[sneaky_zekey]

is there a guide anywhere, what im looking to do is just add a custom color font. so i dont have to keep doing it my self on each adw update, right now i have to decompile it,change some xmls,compile and sign and install, just to achieve a golden font color on apps names

after renameing x.x.x to com.sneaky.zekey.theme . after that i have 3 errors.
“class x.x.x does not exist” “error: No resource identifier found for attribute ‘installLocation’ in package ‘android’”
“R cannot be resolved to a variable.”

Sneaky Sorry was in Vegas for 3 days im back home and Can help you out better! how far have you gotten? there are three places you need to change x.x.x to your new theme name check the android manifest.xml and the java file. if you double click on the errors it will take you to the error itself. hit me up on gtalk if you run into anymore issues!!!

i havent gotten much farther, these are my errors now,after renameing the x.x.x and i choosed the option to update subs, seemed to fix some errors

error: No resource identifier found for attribute 'installLocation' in package 'android'
error: R cannot be resolved to a variable (3 of these)

what is your gtalk info,pm me it

It may not be the best way, but when I switched the target to Froyo (and update the min-level to 8 (I think in the manifest) it automatically included R appropriately and let me build.

well that seemed to help.thanks, now the template is loaded successfully and all the x.x.x have been renamed, now to figure out how to edits it to my likings, i see how to add a font but id like to add a colored font

edit: nevermind i got it, successfully built my first one, now time to get a little deeper into it, that was easy after getting rid of the R error
edit2: since i changed the platform to 2.2 will this not work on lower platforms

so far i have changed the theme_preview and wallpaper images, i changed the font colors for both the desktop and app launcher, im stuck on the icons and shader
