Hi All,
I have (at long last) managed to do a black taskbar, with a coloured battery (With percentage) and coloured icons (V3). The carrier and other text is white.
Respect to Quikt for his modified services.jar & Tina333 for all her theme work!
This theme works on DJSTeve's latest 1.5.0 ROM & Also 1.6.0
NOTE it will take a few minutes to load so it will hang on the boot animation for a few minutes - just be patient!!!
As normal copy the zip file to your SD root. Run Recovery (I use mistadman, because it's brilliant), etc, etc
What's the best app for a screen shot?

Wow.works great for steve's latest 1.5.0. and it looks great.

If anyone is wondering or debating these, they are VERY nice. Lively icons with colors that change depending on status. Very, very nice. And I have tried quite a few theme/task bar mods.
Great job!

I want to try this but it took me awhile to upgrade my US att 1.6 to steve1.5. I am still iffy with the command prompt thing and not sure when to run what.
If I drop this in the root of my SD can I just hold the volumes and power buttons and tell it to install from zip or do I have to do some command line in fastboot first?
If not mistaken I just boot up using volume keys tell it to install pkg from sd card and then clockwork boots and allows me to install zip?
does my phone reset or is everything else retained?
Thanks.
Hey Ody,
If you could drop these changes into a framework for Steve's 1.5.1 so we can have a version for it, I'd really appreciate it!
Steve's changed the animations in 1.5.1, and he's saying that could present a problem with the status bars, themes, etc.
Anyway, I love this bar, and would definitely want to put it on 1.5.1 when I go to it. In fact, I might just wait a little bit to see if you update this before making the jump.
Call me crazy to wait on a whole ROM for a status bar, but I'm a sucker for a black bar, and I think this one's the best.
Thanks!
I installed it over 1.5.1 and everything booted fine. I lost the animations, which I didnt like anyway.

Ahh good call there. I thought that might be what would happen, but I have had these things result in bigger consequences before. Wasn't willing to experiment this time.
Anyway, I just flashed it too with the same result. I didn't hate the animations, but I tend to prefer snappy to flashy when it comes to performance, so I don’t think I will miss them either.
Plus, I have my favorite black bar back!

If you find you really miss the animations, you can also take the framework from this taskbar, run through the UOT kitchen, changing nothing except for adding which ever animation you want, then cook it up. Just tried it with the flying animation and it worked.
can you do that and post the zip?

uhhhh, dumb face here.
I currently dont have enough posts to post a link to the one I made. But if you want to make you own, its not that hard. Just go into system/framework folder using root explorer, make a copy of the framework-res.apk file, and paste the copy into you sd card. From there transfer the file to your computer. Then go to the UOT kitchen website. Just select theme only, click and keep selecting the "dont include" option until you reach the animation section where you pick the one you want. Fom there you click onto the next page where you will upload your framework to the website, click next and the cooking will begin. After it is done, transfer the zip file created back to you sd card and go into clockwork. First you clear you davlik cache then run the zip, reboot (which will take a little longer than normal) and you will have this theme with the animation of your choosing.
Just applied this on 1.5.1 for the first time, very impressed, thanks

Ps suggestion for future theme, maybe do a nice menu screen rather than the drab grey one?

thanks a lot zentronic. i actually followed your video tutorial on how to make boot animations and i was able to get one working. not the one that i want but a trial one. not very difficult at all. the problems i was having was actually getting a decent video of mario getting the 5up. i downloaded an emulator and ran through 3 levels while recording my screen. i am able to watch the video just fine in wmp or other video players but when i try to import the video into a video editor it doesnt want to show up. the screen is mostly black in the video and not usable at all. very perplexing to me and i have no idea how to remedy the situation.
the only other way that i thought of to get decent video of mario is to have the right card in your computer to plug a game system directly into it and capture that video. i currently dont have that option so i figured it would just be easier to ask.
i figured it would be much easier to capture that video and edit it than to try to create that video from scratch. i want it to look like it came from an actual NES. i love that 8-bit look, dont want it to be too cartoony or anything.
i do have a capture card lying around somewhere that i will try to find and install into my computer so i can mess with this or at least have ready for the future.
EDIT
ok found my capture card and will be installing it in just a few min. i know i can edit videos captured this way without problems (ive done it before) so hopefully i will be able to start on this animation today.
I would like to ask in advance if i can use this in my Mario theme?

i am making progress on my version of this. im not sure if zentronic is still planning on taking a stab at it or not. when i get mine done i would have no problem with anyone using it. zentronic seems pretty cool so i doubt he would mind either but better safe than sorry. since this is my first real boot animation it will take some time but i will work on it every chance i get...i think i want this more than anyone else. i have a video now and im in the process of editing. im not a video editor by any means so there is probably an easier way but i dont know about it so i need to take baby steps to make sure i dont screw up. please have patience with me.

hey be patient, took me about a good month to comprehend everything in regards to themeing and theres still alot that i dont know.. patience is key and thanks in advance... =)
ill probably continually post in here to keep anyone interested up to date on my progress. im done working on it for tonight but i think i made a ton of progress today. i was thinking about possibly changing the "5UP" text to something else. maybe "booting" or something like that. id love suggestions as to what you all think could go in its place. i will make sure it looks good though so im thinking a longer phase might be a bit of an eye sore. who knows though. any suggestions will be considered and most likely tested.
huge progress today. the video editing is going much smoother than i though it would (adobe after effects is a pretty sweet program) i should only have 2-2.5 seconds of video left to edit. i over looked that part when i was first doing all my photoshop work. so i need to go back into photoshop which will probably be the longer of the two operations. its very possible that i will get the video editing done today, just taking a break. im sure i will get back to it later. off work for two days so it should be done, at the latest, by thursday evening. now i just hope i dont run into any unforseen roadblocks. i will also post a youtube video so you guys can preview...i love when previews are included.
Keep at it!

Not fake. Installed without flashing, just decompressed archive and install apps one by one. Works fast, but its just another launcher ideea.

Thank you so much for making my phone look beautiful!
EDIT: Trying to install with Clockworkmod does not work. Everytime I try to flash the zip file it says some ''error 6: installation aborted''
Nice. Too bad it doesn't fit the entirety of the screen tho. bottom half and right-hand side of the screen are unusable.
Bet it would work awesome on a smaller res phone. Ill have to check it out on my aria. Ill put it on there when my girl gets back from school. Someone stole her phone so she's got it for the time being.

How much should the density be for the dell streak?

I've had the same error.
Solution: Open up the zip file you downloaded, and go into the system folder. There you will see the ''app'' folder. Open that and in that folder you've got APK files. Put these files into your SD card and install them using Astro File Manager.
hey if you have the root explorer then copy the build.prop from zip to system folder.
if not search google for free root xplorer
send me message for the site for free android apps

So you just installed the 8/9 apk files that are found inside the compressed file? Thanks!
Ok, put this together from many different places, had to change many things to get it to fit/work. Only edited .pngs, and .9.png's. Some images wont theme as they're called by framework.res(menu items). Tested on 160 dpi and 210 lcd densities. It looks much nicer than stock @ 210dpi. I didn't edit any .xml's, so higher dpi may still get cut off. The screenies are @ 160dpi. I will follow up a post with 210 res also. I started making this basically for me, becuz of stock @ 200+ res, but decided I might as well learn. I would have uploaded them here, but file is too big. I imagine this would work on other builds too such as 354, 351, but I have not tested yet.

help an Android noob
I see the zip file has the .apk files, now,
can I back up the ones on the phone, over write with these, or
just copy the .apk files and install, then if I don't like it, just go to
the phone .apk files, and install the original?
tnx!
you can replace them, but since it invloves phone, even in airplane mode I got force close message every second, research it. much easier to flash in recovery.
enjoy..
Got it...FINALLY
After installing clockwork recovery, then trying to figure out it wasn't taking for some reason...googling that, lead me to the multi-recovery flasher. Kept getting unable to load xxxxx message, after googling that and finding out it work take from the desktop, installed it on the local drive, then after trying to figure out why I had a yellow bang (!) in device manager, googling that lead me to the driver, then tried streak recovery, got that installed and in just a few seconds I had the phone dialer up and running. Only took a few seconds, minus the 1-2 hours figuring out the other #(*$&@ errors on my own part LOL.
Anyway, the dialer works, looks much nicer than the stock dialer!
It works in Streakdroid 1.9.1 flashing with streakmod.

With the talk of Samsung releasing the SGSII line with just about the lowest resolution on the market, has anyone been using an LCD Density changer (or just changed the density) to effectively give a better resolution?
How are the results? Does it cause any issues in apps or what not?
I have unfortunately touchwiz can't handle the change, i mean it still works but it doesn't adapt to the new size, neither does the dialer. tried turning off compatibility mode in spare parts, but that did nothing.
Here is a screenie from when I was running CM7.1 nightly 9 with ADW EX launcher set to 8x8 homescreen with DPI set to 200
The dialer was compressed, but nothing that some editing of the numerical PNG files in contacts.apk couldn't fix. It worked fine, no force closes anywhere.
Super simple to do, just use Root Explorer to edit /system/build.prop and change the line:
Code:
ro.sf.lcd_density=200
...save + exit and reboot.
The smaller the number, the more compressed the pixels. My Dell Streak 5 default is dpi 160, so using a 4x4 touchwiz homescreen at 240 dpi is taking some getting use to.
Some market apps will refuse to install at anything other than stock dpi. Not a big deal, revert changes + reboot + install + mod dpi again + reboot + done.
For the record, I'm using UnNamed 1.1 this week at stock DPI (and amazed that I kinda like TW4)
Okay im looking at that line so how do i edit it? Forgive me im new to this stuff /
SGS2 rooted and Overclocked to 1.5ghz stock rom p
No prob. Using Root Explorer, navigate to /system/ and make sure to hit the button in the top right "Mount R/W"
Long press "build.prop" and select Open in Text Editor
Make the change to the line "ro.sf.lcd_density=240" to whatever you want (200 probably works best)
Hit Menu softkey and choose "Save & Exit"
Root Explorer will automatically save a backup copy of build.prop
Reboot your phone to apply DPI change.
There is also a free root file manager called Super Manager, but I haven't used it.
I came from a dell streak as well so the stock 240 density was WAY too big for me. Mine is set to 200 now and like it much better! But i ditched TW and i'm currently running UnNamed + ADWex.
nickshertzer, i'm currently attempting to edit the Phone.apk so the dialer stretches out. How did you go about doing this? I've got the Phone.apk decompiled, can't it be fixed by editing the dip values in the .xml files?
I found this thread with a script to edit the dialer for the I9000 that i'm attempting to use as a rough guide.

Nick I tried your method several different ways and have been going around an around with this for several weeks on our phone and also Sprint version too and the revert back does not stick or still allow to download/update the apps from the market. Tried restarting, clearing cache and resetting the market data and restarting but it still would persist and not allow the updates and incompatibility. The only success I experience is right after I update to a newer version of ROM or clean install all together (which for obvious reasons) resets the phone and then allows the update actions. It is just very frustrating that the DPI change would hinder "Certain Apps" from updating. Anyone have ideas on a future solution besides Nicks input on the manual fix? I think we have brilliant screens with lots of potential for various display options and I miss using the 200dpi settings, but application updates and use of the market is much more important for daily use.

I have used the dialer files from this thread you mentioned and it all works fine on this ROM the only down side is once you theme that it changes to the themed dialer and goes with the 240 adjusted dialer. I would hope you could share your input and steps (If not too complex) to allow themers to integrate into their themes for multi dpi users.
No need to edit build.prop, this app does it for you:
http://www.appbrain.com/app/lcd-resolution-(root)/com.wemobs.android.lcdresolution
My biggest issue is the fact that the market sometimes won't let you install stuff at non240 densities.

Lowest res on the market? 800x480 is the industry standard at the moment. Not the best, but certainly not the lowest.
Sent from my Galaxy S II (i777) using XDA Premium.
I use 180 on a daily basis. In order to get around the dialer issue. I replace contacts.apk in Unnamed 2.21 with the one from Mikey's Serendipity 8.2 works perfectly except for the already in-call dialer pad which i rarely ever use is still small but the regular dialer is now stretched to full screen. It comes down to editing a .xml file or two if you want to attempt yourself.
Hperdroid has touchwiz that works on 160. it is my understanding most market things work with that density

How does the dialer look at 220? I'm running Turkbey, and everything looks great and proportional at 200 and 220 except for the dialer. It becomes offset to the left, so I'm just keeping it at stock 240.

I use my phone at 220 without any issues. I have stopped using the stock dialer since I tried DW contacts. It didn't have any problem when I switched from 240 to 220.
People having issues with stock dialer at 220 could try it out.

Ok, thanks for the input. I'll give that a try when I get home from work tonight.

I've been using a LCD Density of 185 for as long as I can remember. It's rare now to see an app that doesn't like a custom lcd density setting. Occasionally I run into an app on the market that doesn't like it, and I get the banner at the top of the screen. Since I edit the build.prop for my density setting I have to keep an app handy just incase I get the market issue. But it's an easy fix- use app to get back 240 density> manage applications> market> clear data. Open market> download desired app! Love 185. Probably wouldn't go any lower personally but... for the most part, most apps will happily still work and fill the screen
What do we won lowering the density?

User preference. By lowering the density you virtually make the screen bigger. (More can fit on the screen)

But it's not the same using a launcher that gives you more columns and rows?
Just saying
