Have seen something long back in my friends phone but dont remember.Please suggest!

Friends.....nobody has idea or suggestions about it? plzzzz

It is possible but you need to know which files need to be modified. This is hard to do..
You can also try another dialer app..

After flashing . the 1st boot takes a while, dont panic ! it works
For Best look > you can set all the text UI to white ... this is done @ settings / CyanogenMod settings / User interface
100% working for me ...
Do this on your OWN Risk !

Had a "bug" with handcent , where only white text when composing SMS , re-installed the app , and go to go ...
Everything seems to work fine ...
Sweet theme but when I receive a new email in gmail its all black. Also when in google voice white font is no good, can't see any of my text msgs. Also when receiving a call I don't have the option to answer it. Am I doing something wrong?
Other than that I think the theme is awesome!

I think is the framework-res.apk of the theme ...
Dunno how to solve that .. maybe ask or PM the theme creator ...
ps . I dont use native gmail , neither gtalk , I use the email client , so didn't notice that behaviour ...
i dont see the use in this theme for CM6 froyo because you can already customize the UI colors in the settings and as for the custom icons they suck and are really limited so this is a big waste of ram
P.S i am in no way offending the creator of this theme, i respect his work and hiss efforts

No one asked.
I would love if this theme would work on my Aria with CM6. I'm gonna attempt to contact the creator to see if he is willing to work on it. If anyone is willing to show me how I could maybe create or get my "colors" like this theme I'd be most grateful.
TIA

When I receive phone calls I'm missing the answer button. Are you able to answer calls? I posted this issue on the main forum.

How to Make GO Contacts Themes

Does anyone have any ideas as to how one could go about creating GO Contacts Themes.
I've developed both Go Launcher and GOSMS Themes, but don't know how to get started on GO Contacts.
Maybe someone has a template they can share?
If not, is there a way I can unpack the a theme's apk file to use?
Thanks in advance for any responses.
yeah
I would like to know how to do this as well !!
Yes please could someone provide a guide or any info will be great
Yes, we absolutely need more theme choices for gocontacts.
*ins>rt sig here*
guys up topic any stck uncompile package?
I also wanted to know as well..i decompiled .apk and find that need to Change lots of pngs and some xml. But it would be easy to have theme maker..
sent from my awesome ANDROID phone...

I triple that notion.
Why do they have a themer for the sms and not the launcher & contacts?
But... Since they do have easy to dld themes for the contacts, I am thinking we can just download a theme, and decompile it.

Hey ya'll! I realize that this thread is a little old, but I need some help with my Go Contacts. I've decompiled several .apk's to edit to my liking but when I open it in my editor (Gimp) it will not allow me to change the colors. For example, anything I try to change no matter the color it just turns grey. It is to my understanding that I have just been using "locked" apk's. Would anyone happen to have one they might share with me? Or give me some guidance on how to get past this? Thanks for any help!

xan someone teach me how to edit the phone.apk?

can some help? i want to theme it myself. thanks
U shoud use the apk manager ....to uncompil the phone apk....then change the png images and the last to compile again the phone apk.

Hi,
what do you want to modify??
If you want to change some grafics in the "phone.apk" then you also have to modify the "contacts.apk".
Which Rom do you use?
Greetz Paki
Do you think that in order to change the dialer pad shall change the png in the contacts apk?!?!?!....it seem strange but.....i will have a look.... it may be you have right....
....yep...u had rigth....
does it require deodexing? I'm on the Optimus Black and Froyo, suppose the same settings apply. I just want to replace the butt ugly backgrounds which are red and green during calls...
There was one guide in russian in only left google cache now.
http://webcache.googleusercontent.c...нтакты"&cd=1&hl=lv&ct=clnk&gl=lv&client=opera
I've tried and found the right places to mod, it is easy, but could decompile the phone.apk correctly on windows...(errors). I was too lazy to install linux... also AngelofMors has modified phone and contacts apk till version 20l... on 4pda.ru
I use them, sync up high res 400*400 pics from social sites and have superb in call screen photos for my friends...

anyway id like to know how to manipulate the image of the dialpad so it looks like wp7 dialpad. does anyone with great intelligence know how to do this?
it's in drawable-hdpi-finger for theme chooser and inside the phone.apk if you decompile it.
or you can simply search for theme chooser themes http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1219691
or wp7 dialpad app
https://market.android.com/details?...wxLDEsImNvbS5mdXR1cmVkcmVhbXMud3A3LnBob25lIl0.
other than that port it to your rom by decompiling phone.apk

hi r3d.. the 1st link you posted is for CyanogenMod roms. i got virtuous unity with sense. the 2nd link is about the dialer app. i tried it and it sucks big time.
what i dont understand is why something as simple as taking a pic from the android directory, manipulating it, then saving it back to the phone is so godamn difficult? is there a good explanation for something that should be this simple??

That's the point. You gave no real info in your first post. Remember this is a development forum not a support site.
You will need to decimpile 3 apks. Dialer, phone, and com.HTC.resources. then you will have to edit the .9 png.
Is it easy? Yes with the right research and tools.

hi zel.. this sounds like a task. got a question for you and anyone else reading this: is there a theme for the call record behind the dialer where the font is white instead of black and the background is black instead of white?

To be honest I am not sure, I run a custom theme named gotham and dont enclude call recording at all so I have never come across it nor I have looked for it.

im confused here. you mentioned call recording. how is call recording related to custom theming a dialpad?
also... why isnt the dialpad and call record themed like crazy? why is the iphone more customizable than android in this regard when it should be the other way around, especailly when android is touted to be more customizable than iphone?

Sorry read it wrong. Ok that will be an xml in the dialer apk. The main reason is that each dialer is device dependent. The same dialer will not work on all devices
It is more customizable then the iphone in the sense you can use different apps then the stock default which the iphone doesnt allow you to do, Android themeing on a base level takes more knowledge then the iphone as it was made to be a geeks phone. There are plenty of apps that allow Simple theming for the dialer. I would try dialer one.
