HAPPY BIRTHDAY TMA!!
Today marks the third birthday for
Tickle My Android.
Three years.
I started this thread
three years ago.
Wow....where did the time go?!
Since I decided to share this little batch file of mine, I've seen
TMA downloaded by thousands of people across the globe, translated into several different languages and featured on several different websites. The code, meanwhile, has increased from a mere 1,814 lines to
12,863!
I'm still amazed that this tool is still going and I want to thank everybody who's downloaded, supported and contributed over the years. It's you lot that make this the Greatest Android Theming Tool...EVER!! :highfive:
To mark the occasion, and to say thanks, I thought I'd share something rather special..
Not long after the release of version 9, I thought I'd do something different with for the next release. I'd learnt a lot over the years about how to write batch files so it felt like it was time to change
TMA from the standard menu layout and make something truly special.
I then spent the next few months working on
TICKLE MY ANDROID X..
TMAX took a a very long time to design and an even longer time to code. Batch files are just not meant to do the things that this tool could do. This code caused me a lot of headaches!
Then, towards the end of last year, I'd finally gotten the tool to the point where it could decompile, recompile and everything else in the Theming Menu just as well as
TMA. That's when I realised the problem.
TMAX looked amazing and I was having a lot of fun working out how to get it do what I wanted to do but, when it came to theming Android,
TMA was faster, simpler, more efficient and, basically, better to use!!
Which was the whole point behind it.
Tickle My Android is a theming tool, not a programming exercise.
So I stopped development on
Tickle My Android X and started work on putting some of the code into
Tickle My Android 10. Hopefully, you'll agree that version 10 is the best yet.
If you'd like to see what the future of this awesome program nearly looked like, you can download the final beta of
Tickle My Android X from here:

(Special thanks go to the Elite Beta Testers who helped me put this together.

Let me know what you think, thank you for supporting
Tickle My Android and here's to another 3 years!
