Thank you !
Unfortunately, it did nothing with my status-bar.
The clock remains on the right, even after reboot.
However, I did exactly what you wrote.
I tried several methods (TheGrammarFreak, Taine0, or Zdunex25) but none works.
Too bad, I think I have to forget to have a centered clock...
Anyway, thanks for your effort !

have a retry it works

which android you are using i think u had tried the second patch if u tried the first u get the best result have a retry it surely works i had tested for 7 different androids worked perfect

does this inlude the switching of status bar icons?(signals,battery,wifi)

If you can't get it centered just post a link to your framework-res.apk and I will make a update.zip for you

Mmmm, no.
I tried to apply the right, the first one which name is "CENTER CLOCK UI.ZIP".
I do like you wrote : choose the file, apply the file, wait a long time (about 5 minutes), and then, the systemUI FC indefinitely.
So i'm forced to remove the battery for reboot.
And the clock remains on the right...
I'm really sorry.
FYI, my rom is the Temasek's Unofficial CM7 (#91) for LG O2X (see here).

Flash the following zip trough CWM: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/4281191/Center-Clock-For-Litderose .zip
Tell me if you need any other kind of modifications like font or text color/size/style.
DON'T MANUALLY REPLACE THE SystemUI.apk SINCE THAT GIVES MOST OF THE TIME A FC.

It works on roms with odex?

I never suggest to use other SystemUI.apk's which are not from your rom >.>
And the SystemUI that Litderose posted was deodexed so if you've posted a odexed SystemUI for Litderose it wouldn't work...

Dear friends, here is my feedback :
1/ nandroid
2/ venakt kamesh's mod : i copied the file, get some FC, reboot, and then the status-bar diseapear.
3/ nandroid restore
4/ seahorsepip's mod : installed with CVM (i saw your nice message ), reboot, and then... nothing change, the clock remain on the right.
Anyway, what I want to say is : THANK YOU my friends !
It's very kind of you the interest of my problem !
I think the only solution (for me !) to have a centered clock are :
- to install a MIUI rom with Andy's mod,
- to install a CM9 rom with Rob43's mod.
Meanwhile, I'll keep my clock on the right !

Just want to thank you venkat kamesh !
Unfortunately, it's too late because, the dev of my rom decided to incorporate the transparent status bar and the centered clock.
So i'm happy now.
Anyway, I would like to thank you very much for your efforts in providing me a solution !
Cheers.

@ynkamat
Regarding the message bubble design you requested. In order tho have light text on a dark bubble requires decompiling/recompiling the Whattsapp apk and editing the xmls to change the text color. I have tried that in the past, but with little success .. as Whattsapp doestnt seem to be able to recompile properly with the conventional decompiling methods. That is why you will see most mods have only black text on lighter bubbles. Not so easy to do an inverse design.

@Yorzua
I am well aware of how to decompile and recompile apks.
The issue is with the Whattsapp apk recompiling after editing the Styles.xml within the res values folder. As many themers have found, there is an issue with recompiling WhatsApp apk after performing such edits. No one seems as yet able to successfully recompile the apk and alter the message bubble text color. You are doing well if you can change the text to inverse using ApkTool.
I myself prefer APK Manager than ApkTool as its command line structure is much better laid out and has more options.

@ Youzua
Are you able to change the black bubble text to white (within the speech bubbles)....?
The trouble lays in that part of the modifications.
I have yet to see anyone successfully recompile the Whatsapp.apk (myself included) and have the changes (black text to white) actually work after finalization.
Many have tried editing both the Style.xml and Color.xml.. but the it just don't take after recompiling. The person who cracks this is going to make everyone happy.

My answer :
Wasnt you happy when i was posting all my posts off topic from the theming of your themes ?
Did i help you or i just imagine your words below ?
Without my help, you would never be able to go deeper in your own theming which comes now to a real development via xmls and smalis !
I wanted sincerely to help you but hey, like you said, you seem to be more proud or ashame for that... i still remember how you posted in my threads with rage and crap **** ...
dont count on me ever to help you and wrong if you think that we dont need help from someone else... ​

All feedback is always appreciated.
This thread is about Whatsapp.
Fonts are not included in the apk but comes from my rom ICS_Yorzua-Desire v2.
I'm not able to install it. I copied it to system/app . changed permissions and reboot. But nothing happens.

Works for me and others.
Do you have place in your internal memory ( /system ? )
Did you set Permissions to all ?
[example]
I love your customizations Yorzua, the best around!
BTW, I installed a modded version of tweetdeck thanks to you Yorzua and I followed the same steps as you did and it worked flawlessly.
Downloaded apk to my Nexus S SD Card, then I open *Root Explorer* (you can use any file explorer with root capabilities: Script Manager - ES FIle Explorer - ROM Toolbox) changed mounting to writeable and moved the modded app to /system/app ..... then changed permissions to file so it reads: rw--r--r--
After doing so, I rebooted my phone open the app drawer and app was there, clicked on it and it works as it is supposed to.
Can you also make a BBMessenger look-a-like..??

Hi, great theme, I like it! But why is it necessary to install your app as system app & reboot? I tried other themes which can be used by just installing them. I'm just curious.

Not mandatory but 99% of the members coming here have already the latest release installed and since whatsapp ca be moved to sd, my method to install it is more efficient.
but for a first installation, you can perfectly install it with one click

[MOD][GUIDE]Modified S-PEN Shortcuts toolbar / Change Apps (CWM)

IMPORTANT: Flash this MOD at your own risk. I or the XDA assume NO responsibility for any failed flashes or bricked tablets.​
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1
How-To change Apps in the S-PEN Shortcuts toolbar​
I found, after a long time, a solution for change the Apps in the S-Pen Shortcuts toolbar. The toolbar pops up if you pushed out the S-Pen.
I don´t like and use some Apps like this stupid Game "crayon_physics" or Polaris Office...... first i have delete the Game but how i can get a new App in this Toolbar?!?
Now i have found a solution!!! And i want to teach you how you can do this!!!
First a few Screenshoots before and ofter the modding:
before (without the game):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
after modding:
So .... how can you change the toolbar? I have tested it only on a deodexed ROM!!
What do you need?
any APK Tool Manager for decombile and recombile, like this LINK
a Text Editor like Notepad++ (free)
your SystemUI.apk from your ROM
a cup cake and a coffee :laugh:
First you decombile the SystemUI.apk
Go to the folder systemui\res\values
open the arrays.xml with the Text Editor
Here you find this lines
Code:
com.diotek.mini_penmemo,com.diotek.mini_penmemo.Mini_PenMemo_Service
com.sec.android.app.snotebook,com.infraware.filemanager.FmFileTreeListActivity
com.android.calendar,com.android.calendar.AllInOneActivity
com.acrodea.crayonphysics,com.acrodea.crayonphysics.crayonphysics
air.com.adobe.pstouch.oem1,air.com.adobe.pstouch.oem1.AppEntry
com.infraware.PolarisOfficeStdForTablet,com.infraware.splash.SplashActivity
Now you need the packageName and the className of the App that you want to make in the Toolbar.
An example:
com.acrodea.crayonphysics,com.acrodea.crayonphysics.crayonphysics
packageName = com.acrodea.crayonphysics
className = com.acrodea.crayonphysics.crayonphysics
or
air.com.adobe.pstouch.oem1,air.com.adobe.pstouch.oem1.AppEntry
packageName = air.com.adobe.pstouch.oem1
className =com.adobe.pstouch.oem1.AppEntry
Now you can change the packageName & className with your wanted Apps and recombile the SystemUI.apk
Pushed the SystemUI.apk in a flash able ZIP or changed it in your ROM.
Here are a List of Apps that i have allready tested! If you have an other App please post the packageName and the className and i added it on this List!!!
Or install the ClassFinder App
Code:
[B]Contacts[/B]
packageName=com.android.contacts
className=com.android.contacts.activities.DialtactsActivity
or
[B]Contacts[/B]
packageName=com.android.contacts
className=com.android.contacts.activities.PeopleActivity

[B]Dropbox[/B]
packageName=com.dropbox.android

I have been looking for something like this.
Now, if we can just get it to be modified, on the fly (as an app and not required to be flashed in recovery), by specifying the apps you want to put in there....THAT will be cool and very, VERY useful.
Thanks for you hard work - appreciated.

no luck, grrr i have tried everything even pushing it with adb, the systemui keeps crashing, when i replace it with the stock systemui everything runs fine, i even installed the latest 8010 you have posted on another thread and build a new one and pushed that one and still no luck :crying: also i noticed the screen turns on by its self for no reason with the modified systemui
one last Attempt ...
Please use the latest N8010er Build N8010XXUCMA5 deodexed from me. After flashed the ROM reboot the device.. then reboot in Recovery and flash the ZIP from this attachment!
I hope now it works...

Unfortunately, it doesn't work properly for me. I do get it to work, but then the systeui.apk crashes every few seconds. Do you have an indication of what could go wrong, or at least where do you think a mistake is made?

[AllianceROM][JB XXLSZ][OTA][VISUALS]Post your submissions here

Because we are getting so many good suggestions for OTA updates in our thread AllianceROM_JB XXLSZ_v2 we decided it was time to start a thread for users to post their submissions.
Major Credits to Robbie Hood for making this Rom and to Ficeto for making the awesome Rom Customiser and the Ota app
OTA visuals (and updates) are bound to certain format rules that I will explain in the following posts.
All things posted in here will first be tested and evaluated before being uploaded to OTA
please be advised that mods are not to include complete framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk, SecSettings.apk or android-policy

OTA visuals
Visuals are zips containing images and XML files from apk that are to be changed.
Format for zip name is simple, just try to describe what the mod does, if mod is a variation of existing mods use same format as existing ones.
The .theme in the name is no longer needed.
Inside zip you put name of apk (without .apk). Mods can contain more than one apk!
Also put in the root op the zip:
An empty txt file named theme
A txt file called description with a short description of the mod
An image file in JPG format called preview with an image of your mod
put in the rest of the folders like in original apk
Before uploading it please test the mod yourself by putting it on your sd and flashing from RomCustomiser
If your mod fits an existing category please tell us in your post
If you come up with mods that don't have a category yet, please also make a revert mod containing the same images and xml from the original rom so users can get back to that easily
OTA updates
Ota updates can contain apk, mostly used by Dev's to update the Rom.
Can however also be used for fixes that contain an apk like the stock playstore
They are basicaly CWM zips, with some additions:
A txt file named description with a description of the update
An JPG file named preview with an image of the mod (preferable, not compulsory)
Please remember that all system apps go in preload/symplink/system/app
You can use the base zip that I uploaded here

Thanks a lot Bas :highfive:

Yes. Also, you have to be using the Alliance Ficeto TWRP kernel. Philz must be missing some of the busybox (/?) instructions that make the theme engine work.
Working on a couple more.

nice thanks man will uplaod em to our server asap but im experimenting a bit with my ROM
if all goes as planned the rom config will have a stock theme option as well so no need to flash a stock theme afterwards for the ones who like stock but just optional via romcustomizer when flashing the rom
is there any chance to get a zip to flash it from cwm?
it´s because I use this beautiful rom as sd rom and can´t flash anything via Rom Customizer :crying:
I tried different zip´s till now with my own png but none works

Didn't realize there was a functioning dual boot kernel now. Need to go look at that
Obviously, your setup is totally unsupported as far as Alliance team would be concerned. None of the OTA stuff would ever work. You'd might be better off running Alliance as the main 'phone' ROM and AOSP, CM, whatever, as your SD ROM.
But there is hope for you yet...
You need to pull your framework-res.apk, manually modify the background png, and push framework-res.apk back into /system/framework manually via ADB or whatever file manager is convenient (Alliance ROM Manager comes to mind)
You can follow instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2175160 (except in Alliance ROM, Robbie changed the HOLO background name to background_holo_dark.png and NOT tw_background_holo_dark) :highfive:

thanks m8 for ur quick anser :good:
with the ota updates I got no problem,
downloaded with AllianceOTA and flashed via recovery, worked fine so far
and I know it would be the best to flash this Rom as phone Rom,
but I´m to lazy to setup two Roms again :silly:
and you would laugh, I extracted the framework-res.apk from the rom a few minutes ago and replaced that png ,
but not flashed till now
Edit: it worked, I copied over the framework-res.apk manually

Is there any way to make this compatible with older versions like V10b and stuff? I still use it. I don't feel like upgrading it. I tried installing it. Everything boots. But the program force closes and reboots the system.

That was my bad coz thats in framework-res.apk , but instead of talking like that you couldve simply answered my question. I know a lot about theming and have made themes for myself and since ive been out ofall of this work so i forgot. Using the vrtheme template is making a mod is easy but you can change the bg by editing the tw_status_bar_expanded.xml in the layout folder. Its good that you are making such mods available to everyone. But anyways , i still didnt get the answer i was looking for.

Well, sorry coz i was bad in explaining. I just replied in hurry and if you know all theming and all for our s duos then this question for "simply changing the statusbar_bg.png or stat_bar_bg.png in systemui.apk or framework-res.apk" whatever has no mean at all from you.
Well my friend, i was meant that there is no such file in any of apk file having such image file for background of notification panel.
And mate only systemui can have such files for status bar and its panels. Neither in framework-res.apk or not any other.
Explanation in short
What i did is:
As you have seen my this thread
Enabling/modding Transparency
Then in this part 'Now for making StatusBar Expanded/Notification Background transparent.'
I just changed the value "#xxxxxxxx" to "@drawable/statusbar_bg".
In files 'tw_status_bar_tracking.xml' and 'tw_status_bar_tracking_dual.xml
but not 'tw_status_bar_expanded.xml'
So you changed it from id/#### to @drawable right ? Wow ill check those xmls out. Thanks

Not id
I changed '#xxxxxxxx' (color value) to @drawable/statusbar_bg" (source of image)
where @drawable/statusbar_bg" means @drawable-hdpi/statusbar_bg.png
Ok so instead of using the color value u redirected it to the png ? Great, ill have a try with that transparency mod of yours as this mod is based on that i guess. Thanks

For transparency with background mod needs this:
Use any image editing software like Gimp (I always use this only )
Open that image in it and change the opacity as per your need, save it as 'statusbar_bg.png' only and then continue with step 9.
Here are some screenshots for gimp:
Yes i figured dat out , used an image with some transparency already in it. Thanks for the mod
Just a suggestion- this mod replaces the existing systemui.apk so it actually removes the theme which is already present. So it would be great if you can make a mod which actually just changes the current systemui.apk instead of replacing it. You can easily do this by using the vrtheme template u used in this thread. :thumbup:

So it would be great if you can make a mod which actually just changes the current systemui.apk instead of replacing it. You can easily do this by using the vrtheme template u used in this thread. :thumbup:

My friend, if you are using any one of my themes or stock theme, see all the first post again clearly. You will get all your answers for that.
But if you are talking about this:
If you or anyone did something himself/herself for theming without my themes by replacing pngs or by using any other app . Then there is no solution just now because values has to be changed in values folder only so it cant be done by vrtheme patcher and if vrtheme patcher will not do this then obviously previous theming will be lost.
So for them and for you too, its better to make backup of systemui before flashing this mod.
cheers
Yes i was using my own theme so i themed your apk given in the mod. So do you have to change a value in one of the files in the values folder? Cant you replace the whole file in the folder with a modified one ? Vr theme template can be used to replace a particular file just like u replaced the statusbar_bg.png in drawable-hdpi.
