Hello to you all
This is my official thread for the work in progress theme for the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and S4-i9505 running Android 4.3. It all started from messing around with the system apk files, just as a hobby. Now I'm seriously going to re-design the whole SystemUI, Settings and Framework, plus stock apps such as camera, gallery etc.
- So far I have themed -
- Toggles, wifi, mobile data etc, plus the blue toggle light.
- Settings menu for the toggles.
- Connection icons.
- Notificationbar icons, such as handsfree mode, block mode, alarm icon, airplane mode, bluetooth etc.
- 3 icons in the taskmanager.
- Circle battery modified to change color from green after 50 % slowly from yellow to red, suits my taste better.
- Lowbatt screen warning.
- 9.11.2013 Update, statusbar gps, wifi hotspot, eye, usb when plugged.
- 9.11.2013 Framework mods, settings tabs now have nice light when pressed, it pretty much effect on all tabs.
- 10.11.2013 Update, Settings and taskmanager is now themed, and minor bug fixes in settings tab images.
- 11.11.2013 Update, Framework mods for the icons, and background image, also drivingmode and connection icon changed for a better one, see screenshots below.
- 11.11.2013 Second update, less attacking signature in the background, new designed togglelights and taskbar pulldown light, also no circle battery version, notice you have to flash back your original systemUI in order this to rid of the circle battery mod, then flash the no circle battery version.
- 12.11.2013 update, framework mods, added transparency to menus.
- 13.11.2013 update, more frameworkmods, added themed aircommand, just pop-out the pen and see the difference.
- 14.11.2013 update, more and more framework mods, most system buttons now themed, except switches and checkmarks, some minor tweaks and fixes...still longway to go to...
- 15.11.2013 update to version 0.85. After bunch of headache with framework windows, spinners, sliders and stuff, I finally got everything right.
So what's different? Buttons, checkmarks and checkmark frames and button frames, sliders, spinners and transparency is way less than before in the menus, updated to blue-ish keyboard, and reverted some menus back to stock look due issues with 9 ending png's in the framework, those are ***** to work with I say. Oh yeah, and settings now have candy looking switches.
- 16.11.2013 update to version 0.87. Fixed transparency issues with checkmark boxes being too invisible, gave clear button less black color, and now in white themed apps buttons no longer are too dark, fixed them to match right, if you test Splanner and adding event, you'll see in the 0.85 version that the buttons are too dark, now they are not, also ok and cancel buttons are slightly changed in color.
- 16.11.2013 Second update to version 0.88, bug fixes and few icons changed.
- 18.11.2013 Update. Done theming framework res drawable-hdpi, God it took me many hours to change icons that barely never visible, tiny 32x32 and 48x48 icons, 340 of them seperately thru photoshop, FRUSTRATING! fixed few bugs, changed meny overlays, took off the greenish shine from the top of each windows.
- 19.11.2013 Update. Touchwiz launcher is now complitely themed, and Verizon signal bars work just fine.
- 20.11.2013 Update. Fixed few compability issues, added graphics for the lockscreen pattern unlock, fixed small bugs and critical bug from the dropdown windows .9.png's.
- 22.11.2013 Update. Completed twframework-res, fixed few icons from framework-res, made few icons more sharp due resize issues. I still can't find the earphones png location, it is mystery to me, and taskmanager press for the 3 buttons is also hidden from me, asked help from Bobcatsrom, but no asnwer yet. About half of the .9.png's will remain untouched, so my theme for now will not have all the toast windows and menu windows themed, but it is ok because most of them are looking good already.
- 25.11.2013 Update to v1.01. Changed buttons from Touchwiz appdrawer to be more visible for what is chosen. Contacts is now about 50% themed, this takes ages because there are still about 300 png's to theme. Removed my signature from the background because it bothered contacts buttons.
- 25.11.2013 Second update to v1.02. Contacts dialer start to look much better now.
- 26.11.2013 Update to v1.05. See my contacts thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542134 for what is new and instructions for the bug with the SecContacts.apk mostly with Spint, AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile.
- 29.11.2013 Update to version 1.1. Updated contacts and caller, few tweaks here and there.
- 30.11.2013 Update to version 1.12. Made caller icons very clear, instead of a glow.
- 1.12.2013 Update. See Galaxyman's Caller thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548176
- 11.12.2013 Update. Finally fixed white screen and buttons for the contacts and dialer for T-mobile. Sprint, AT&T and Verizon still have to wait thou... notice that you need to download this fix seperately, link is below HUGE THANK YOU FOR THIS GOES FOR TIFFANY84 and FOREVERLOCO For all the work.
So here is the fix for the contacts and dialer whoever have this white background problem.
