[Theme] Droid X, Sense, Flat Black + Theme Tutorial

[dmo580]

When you removed the framework-res from your rom did you modify and push the exact same file back, or an exact copy of that file?

if you extracted the frameworks contents, modified them and re-zipped in a new zip file that will mess with some stuff and might cause the FC issue

the framework should be fairly easy to mod and straight forward (its just png's replacing other png's) so no codes or anything. The services.jar seem to be breaking most of the newer firmwares (after the initial 2.1 release) i'll look into it as i'll probably update my phone this week to latest firmware and see if things break

I renamed it to .zip as your instructions say and I opened it with WinRAR. I pushed the new folder in and I made sure I did "ask before replacing" and Winrar asked if I wanted to replace stuff.

I tried with the STOCK Telus 2.1 Framework too as well as the one from the Fast & Light Telus which already is themed to Droid X. I'm guessing this backup is so heavily customized it doesn't play well.

That or I'm retarded and I'm doing it wrong.

I see the bar and all. It's when LauncherPro starts drawing the icons I get an endless FC loop. Yikes.

are you pushing the entire folder or just the contents of the folder? you want to push just the contents (the individual png's, select all and drag theme across), otherwise winrar might ovewright the entire folder and leave a bunch of files missing

I'll look into it, havent had a chance to update my phone to newest firmware just yet

I am definitely pushing the whole folder but I did check how WinRAR replaces files and it doesnt overwrite the entire directory and removes the old stuff. It appends the new stuff in (which involves overwrites). I counted the files before and after to check.

Does this have anything to do with the 3.11 Telus update or anything and the wrong services.jar being used? Shrug.

hey dmo haven't read your full thread, but appears as though you're trying to slot the galaxys black theme on the fast & lite telus v3? This is exactly what I want to do, too....

I'd also like to swap in launcherpro plus 7.6.0 instead of just the basic...

any ideas? I tried following the guide and attempting to install the theme myself, but the download link for the theme is borked - also tried googling Galaxy_S_Theme(v1).zip to no avail.

any assistance appreciated, as always.

cheers,

can you provide me with your default framework and services.jar and i'll see if i can theme it

[-Az-]

so averma1 i, my time and date text is white, but notification text is black and my service provide is black have you had any luck getting those white on 2.38?

[kraken]

I modified my (french) 2.38.1 version and everything seems good.
I'd need more time to tell if it's really perfect but if you want to test it out here's a mirror:
2.1.38.1_sense_EU.rar

Please give me some feedback if you use it.

Cheers

I hope it is the correct tread.
I am looking for the Black flat (or the other) notification bar with coresponding icons for Android 2.1 Update 1, Argentina - Provider Personal. Any chance ?

Attached my orginal framwork and service.

[Thomas_AR]

Ok as nobody has it for my former ROM, i flashed Telus 3.11. Anybody a black notification bar for it? Android 2.1 Update1.
Thanks.

everything has gone smoothly..however, i found that when i pushed everything, when i pull down the notiication bar, INSTEAD of saying "Notification" it'll say "SOUND OFF" and when i plug my USB cable in, it'll change to "%-l%p" or something...i think it's the services.jar file? any ideas? i have the canadian telus milestone running 2.1 update1

[jiffypophead]

below is what happened when i pushed the files (mind you, i took the PNG files from the OTHER post with that sense theme because this thread's sense theme didn't work properly..icons on the top were not blending right into the status bar..).. for some reason my "CLEAR" button is now "Sound On" and where it says "Notifications" now says "%-l%p".... i took my original file and only replaced what i was supposed to for the frameworks file and then i used the posted Canada services.jar file and replaced the status bar xml file with the right Canada one...........any idea why this is happening??

[almosteasy52]
