Re: [THEMES] Optimus s Gingerbread Themes (WIP) -- 9/22/11

Ok its just the noIQ not the theme an noIQ? An ill try again but it just comes up page cant open an wen I finaly got it to open the download will just go to fail

Ok, let me explain. Most of the theming happens in framework-res.apk. This is also the file where that you edit to implement the noIQ tweak. So, if you are running the original reTouched and you flash this zip, the only file that will be changed is the (new) modded framework-res.apk that includes reTouched images and the noIQ tweak. It's has to all be together or the theme won't work.

EDIT: Uploaded a link to my dropbox for you. Not sure why it isn't working for ya, I can see by the count that others are downloading it fine. No biggie, here ya go:

theme_GB-reTouched-noIQ.zip

Nothing...... I think you got a bad download the first time. I've had other devs try this one and by the download count on mediafire, I can see other users are using it as well with no complaints. If this one still doesn't work for ya...... I will be at a loss for ideas here. I just hope it does this time.

Post #2 is updated with this. Download link provided here too. Enjoy!!

Notification Icons

If you miss the old colorful Email, Gmail, and Messaging notification icons, flash this over any theme: Email_Gmail_mms_noti-icons.zip Click to view quoted image​

Thank you for this - my eyes can't tell the difference between the gray-on-black icons in Gingerbread, and that's if I can even tell the icon is there. Unfortunately, it looks like the newest Gmail app update (2.3.5.2) breaks this mod. After updating the Gmail app, I noticed the gmail notification icon reverted back to grey. I figured I just needed to reflash the mod, but after doing that the gmail icon was still gray. I then reflashed again but this time wiping cache and dalvik cache, but again no dice. The MMS icon is working, though, so it's just Gmail. My phone is on gROM 1.2 and using the reTouched-GB theme.

The reason you cant flash back is because the application itself is still there but disabled in /system/app/. So in essence what you are doing is just overwriting a disabled file. The new file would be in /data/app/ and would have a slightly different name. . You could try to uninstall the update from Settings -> Settings -> Applications. Then make sure you have auto updating off or it will come right back, lol.

Hope that explains for you.

Thanks for the explanation. I guess at this point I need to decide if the single ambiguous "security fix" introduced in this new version of the gmail app is more important than having the clear, colorful icon. I guess since the messaging icon works, I know that if it is a blurry little gray thing, it's probably Gmail since the other popular icon is nice neon green.

Sweet - after flashing gROM 2.0 and then the messaging icon mod again, the colorful gmail icon is back! Now I'm good to go until the gmail app is updated again.

Darn it...gmail updated on me and I lost it. It was good while it lasted! I thought that maybe gROM 2.0 had included the latest version of the gmail app, and with that being the only gmail app installed the icon would work on it until yet another update hit. I guess that's not how it works. Oh well...

Reflash the mod, and then disable automatic updates in the market 4 gmail.

It's no big deal - I think I'd rather have the most up-to-date version of gmail than the icon. I just thought for a few minutes there that I had both.

Hey jstntp is it possible to get a patch just for the blue circle battery indicator from reTouched? I'm on gROM and would love to add just that. No IQ seemed to break the Sprint Family Locator app for me. Thanks!

Is it possible for me to make the notification bar on SimpleG darker? I like the theme, but that grey bar is killing me.

 

[hlxanthus]

Had a request for a theme. I really like the minimal magic theme for cm7, is it possible to port this over? Or imitate it?

Yes, I can do that. Would you like reTouched without the noIQ hack? If so, here it is: theme_GB-reTouched-v1.2.zip
If you want just the battery mod on gROM's stock theme, I will get that done and post it for ya a little later tonight.

I should (hopefully) have some time tonight to work on these. Let me see what I can do.

I may have the apk for the minimal magic if that helps.

Edit: I did find a titanium backup file that I believe is it

I found the dev's thread over at xda, and there is a download link there. I just need to ask permission to port it over to the s.
