Question about GO sms - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Not sure if this is the place, but its a question. For those that use GO SMS, is there a way to create your own theme for it? If so.... what needs to be done?

Sort of, yes. You can start with a premade theme, and then go into appearance settings and tweak the look of the inbox and conversation pages.

if you want to make a WHOLE new theme, umm ask the dev, im sure he'd support you he's really nice, he responds to every text i send him lol i think i annoy him a bit.

[Request] Please remove the yellow flash!

I believe that this is the right place to post this request.
Whenever I select a text box or a flash item in the browser is flashes a yellow color.
I hate it and i want it to leave! It seems like the item is freezing and it is ugly.
Can it be removed somehow? I believe it can on be done the hard way!
wrong section & this is normal.

wrong section. but to answer your question, flash a theme that changes the colors in the web browsing...
Is it a theme thing? I'm sorry I thought that it was something deeper.
It's not only the browser but also the text boxes.
i have to disagree to you guys. afaik this has nothing to do with themes, it's just the yellow border which marks links and everything else in the browser. it's right in the development board. i can understand that you don't like it, i personally don't really care about it...
i'm pretty sure this can be done by any developer. but not by me, my android skills are very weak
maybe some dev picks this up...
This is definitely a theme issue. You need to edit a. 9.png, either in framework-res or the Browser.apk. Those are a huge pain to edit, but you can change the color, or make it transparent if you want to get rid of it altogether. I'm no themer, but I think if it's totally transparent you can cheat and skip the complicated part of preparing the. 9.png before you push it. Or you might be able to just delete it altogether. I'm sure if you post this over in that section you'll find an answer from somebody who knows better than me.

Pink status bar

can someone make me pink status bar? would like pink everything as well as animations. I'm sorry if this is not the right place to put this

no one? no one would like to attempt this for me and make a nice donation???
Hey, dont kno if you have this one already, but on the thread below you can grab the pink android battery icon, its a start!

Just open pack's battery mod in 7zip and go to /framework/ then double click the framework-res.apk. Then click through /res/drawrable-hdpi-v4/ . This will bring you to a bunch of pngs. Extract them all. These are all the files you need to theme your phone. You can go through and edit each one, then drag and drop them back onto the 7zip window showing all the pngs. Then just close it out. It'll ask if you want to update the original archive. Say "Yes", and then just flash like normal. There are a couple of things to remember. All image sizes have to be the same. If the status bar background is 480x86 then that's the size it has to be. Also remember to keep the file names the same. Don't change any of the xml files. And always do a Nandroid before flashing. I've done this before to change my status bar and notification drawer background. But you can never be too careful. Hope this helps!
Hey i want this for my wife but it sounds hard!! Can u make it simple?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
There really isn't any way to make this super simple. It really isn't that difficult, on a scale of 1-5 it's a 3. The only thing that makes it suck is the time it takes to alter all the files. That's why I don't just do it myself and upload it. The key to making this work is time! As long as you sit down with an afternoon of free time you shouldn't have any troubles getting this to work.
lol i knew i should of posted this... thanks guys for suggesting my mods but she wants something a little more in depth... im workin on it now
@Iriscience thanks for always looking out Ive seen you help out on my threads a lot so I just wanted to say thanks for that... just a tip though when exchanging files like your were saying to do. You need to make sure the new file is that exact same properties as the old. Different name, size, ect will lead to either boot loops or mass force closes when the device boots
Anytime pack! You do so much for this community! The least my broke ass can do is give some advice here and there. And good call on the name and size. I knew the name would cause problems, but I didn't know the size would too. That is good to know. Especially since I'm going to try a personal theme for CM7.
What program would you recommend to edit these?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Photoshop or equivalent
@pack, I tried to pm u but u have pm's blocked, place contact me asap or I will have to go thru PayPal for refund. This is the only way I can contact u sorry

[Q] Hide the page indicator in TouchWiz

Hi there,
loving my new Galaxy but I don't really fancy the page indicator telling me what page of the home screen I am on. Any option to hide it? And no I wanna stick with TouchWiz so no other Launcher suggestions please ;-)
Thanks
DoubleYou
anybody any ideas?
Hmmm I'm curious about this too.....
Im still very n00b to android but off the top of my head im thinking about the possibility of getting into the touchwiz files and making the page indicator graphics transparent.
There's probably another, more efficient way than that but..... .
I've no idea if that's possible but I would certainly hope so. Ill be looking into theming this thing when I get my sgs2 and if I have any luck ill let you know.
I hate page indicators.......
Sent From My Fingers To Your Face......
Yes let me know please in case you find a way? I was actually hoping someone had already found a way to do this though ;-)

I did it....
I dont know if there are any differences between the touchwiz apks in different ROMS but to be on the safe side, upload the file "TouchWiz30Launcher.apk" from "/system/app" for me and I will get rid of that pesky page indicator for you.
Its not completely removed, it still works if you long press on it, its just invisible.

sounds great will PM you tomorrow.
hmmm just noticed that the numbers are still there.
I was using a black wallpaper so I didnt notice before...
Damn. Will keep playomg around with it.
I also would of thought it would be as simple as making the numbers transparent, even a blank .png file?

Afraid not. They are called into play by a line of code somewhere.
They can be disabled in the same way you would disable the names of apps displayed under the icons our another item of text. Its just a matter of finding the right line to tweak.

Ah, that makes sense. Hmm bit of pain!

SMS Theme

wiredly I am unable to change SMS Theme ..Any one know why?
EDIT: Came to know after update there was no SMS theme for any one.Why? and what theme you have now for SMS? Mine is Grey background and Yellow,Blue bubbles
There is NO sms themes anymore in 2.3.4 afaik. So you have to put back 2.3.3 I guess, lol.
Everyone has this, as all have been removed by Samsung. You could always install a different SMS app, but that's probably not what you're here for .

Can you tell me what app could I use to get rid of Threaded SMS. I want Normal SMS back, with Inbox/Outbox etc...Please suggest one which doesn't put any extra pressure on battery.
Sorry for Off Topic query ,but had to ask.
Regards.
it is sad they removed it.Any one know the reason why they did it?

I know that Go SMS has an Inbox-Outbox feature. You use the settings menu to make that your standard view. Or when you have installed the app and you see the different contact-threads, slide your thumb sideways, you'll see the old Inbox/Outbox.
------
As to be on-topc, I have seriously no idea why Samsung removed the themes. Maybe they're up to something, but I seriously doubt that. We may see them back in the future but I seriously doubt that.
