I think i might take a crack at it later this week. it would be a very simplified version tho. doubtful that id be able to make any effects upon pressing buttons or the like.

if i remember, i will try my hand at it tonight and get some type of 'pressed' function.

alright, i found the folder that contains everything i will need, the first 'version' will maintain the same size buttons as the original (rectangular) but i will try to adapt that to be square like the actual pay phone buttons.

No big deal, keep trying! This is the only way to learn. I'm going to start doing the same once I get my replacement. My charger port crapped out on me.

yeah, i am going to flash the stock GB phone.apk and try modding it again today and see what happens. I PM'd someone that has themed dialers before to see if there is some major thing or minor thing i overlooked.

ok, i am retarted.. i KNEW i picked the wrong apk

its the dialertabactivity.apk that needs the modifications!! will work on tonight and get something working!

im going to work on something now in photoshop/CAD program to show what I will be able to do with it, but you guys will have to let me know what you WANT.

i can either re-create the style of buttons as best that i can in photoshop, or use JPG/PNGS of actual buttons from a phone like done in the iphone app.

if i make the buttons in photoshop, I can give them the 'pressed' effect

OK, im confused.. that screen shot of the app, and i dont know if pay phones are/were like that, but there is no Q or Z on it o.O


here is a VERY preliminary idea for this dialpad..

this was done in a CAD program, so not much flexibility. I will create the Shadow effect to make the buttons look 3Dish as shown in the pic below..

the gray/gray gradient would be replaced with an actual brushed steel texture.

i would also add some type of effect to give the buttons the concave look in the middle..

what im looking for is what people think of the layout. to get it to work well with everything as it is, i will be using the SAME size pngs with transparent left/right sides which explains the orientation of the buttons/text/

i also found out that my phone.apk modifications DID get pushed.. they show up in the 'in call' Keypad, as seen here. i will also theme that one, as it will be pretty much the same PNG files, renamed..

keep in mind, all i did was compress the width and change the BG color to verify they would theme..



the reason i will not just be re-sizing the PNGs is demonstrated above by the in CALL (phone.apk) keypad. the .xml sheet dictates the padding and adjusts it with the PNG size.. if i were to keep the same PNG size for example (140x82) with transparent edges, it would be justified correctly, but resizing to 82x82 left justifies them (per the dictating xml sheet) it is easier to maintain the same image sizes than edit the XML sheets for sure.
