Hi, I have the source code, for the cyanbread theme, and I am making some modifications to it to make my own personal theme. For the most part every thing has worked, until I tried to do some themes on the deskclock apk. I am trying to point it to the ics logo using this command
<item name="drawable/ic_launcher_alarmclock">@drawable/ic_launcher_alarmclock</item>
It compiles just fine, but the deskclock app just goes back to its default logo. Any suggestions I am really frustrated by this.
Solved - The deskclock app has conflicting package names in its manifest.xml. I removed the conflicting signature, and from there on everything has worked perfectly
If anyone know's, or thinks they could help me with this please reply. Does desk clock just not listen to the t-mobile theme app's directions or what

Hi I am having the same problem. Trying to figure out with what you said but I guess I just don't understand.

Hello all,
I'm using the latest version of GO Launcher Theme Factory, and I've made a theme with around 30 icons, but I can't seem to add custom icons for other apps that aren't in GO's list. For example, I want to add a Nexflix icon for my theme, but I can't because when I double click on the add custom icon button, GO wants me to open an .apk file, not an image file. If anyone knows how to add a new icon to the list where it's actually an image file, or if anyone has an .apk file that I could download to my comp that has a bunch of custom icons listed (I'll make my own actual icons), that'd be great.
Thanks for your help in advance,
Bishop
Same problem here
Hey Bishop, Have you found the solution to this by any chance? I'm stuck with the same problem. :/
Thanks in advance!

[EDIT - 5 mins later... lol]
Just figured it out. Gonna put the solution here just in case any one else comes upon this thread:
The .apk refers to the .apk of the app whose icon you would like to customize.
So say, if you wanted to create a custom icon for Minecraft Pocket Ed, you'll need to add "Minecraft_Pocket_Edition_v0.1.2.apk" to GO Theme Factory via Icon Exchange> App Icon > Add/Delete App Icon > Custom Icons > "Add".
A dialogue box that says "Parsing" will be on screen for quite a while, then the icon will be added!
Can't believe it was so simple... dddduuurrrr (◔ ◡ ◔)"""
How to add a biggest icons to the theme? Like in Glass theme? Not 72x72. Something like 86x86 or even bigger.
icons don't change on device for some phones
Hello, when i try adding custom apk to add icons i get parsing error every time! Becausr some icons like music and downloads etc don't change with preset icons in the exchange. Thanks in advanced!
Making a new GO Theme Factory thread
Hey guys I have been going through the process of making themes on GO Themes Factory as well and think we all need a new thread where we can all come together and help others/ask questions. It will be under the "Android Themes" section.

I've been building a theme recently but I keep getting stuck at one point, I'm changing the dock icons in TW but every time I change the ic_launcher_contacts.png and ic_launcher_phone.png in contacts.apk I screw up the apps. They look nice but if I open them they hang and crash. I managed to do it to mms.apk fine so is there anything I'm missing?
Solved, was a permission issue, please delete
I am running ShoStock3 v6.0.2 currently and have been working on theming it. I have gotten a lot of status bar icons from RockRatt and some of the icon theming I have done myself. Replacing images and recompiling the SystemUI.apk works fine for me.
Center clock however has been a pain in the rear end. I have been up and down XDA, other forums, and Google trying to accomplish this. Anytime I think I have it though, I replace my original SystemUI.apk with the modded one and just get FC.
This only happens if I have done any XML editing. Hasn't happened when it comes to icon editing.
Am I just coding it wrong every time, or is there something else I need to do besides edit the tw_status_bar.xml file?
Yes, I am a noob at this, but I have searched and tried the suggestions any many tutorials here and elsewhere. But I just can't get it to work.

I am learning how to make themes and using as a base the Android 4.4 KitKat Theme by Global Sense (in Google Play). I wanted to start by making simple changes, like the notification_header_bg. First I made the image in Gimp and saved it to res/drawable-xhdpi (even if my device is HDPI). Then, I added this code to res/xml/com_android_systemui.xml:
Code:
<item name="drawable/notification_header_bg">@drawable/notification_header_bg</item>
And then I had the problem. It's like the image is overlapping itself, and, even if it's not transparent, it's looking brighter on one side. Does anybody know how can I fix this? Thanks!

Try editing the smali files. You need to tell the status bar to disappear.
Hello everybody!
I've just registered and this will be my first thread and post.
I am very fond of black themes because they are much easier on my eyes and they are better looking than bright ones in my opinion. Since I wasn't able to find any black themed ProtonMail apk, I've tried my best to theme it myself even though I just recently started to learn about the process of theming few weeks ago.
I need your help to finish it. I'm currently stuck I have two problems:
1) I can't figure out how to theme the background of footer buttons ("reply", "reply all" and "forward")
i[DOT]imgur[DOT]com/t1CnPBj[DOT]png
2) and also I have troubles figuring how to theme popup backgrounds in this application. For example this popup:
i[DOT]imgur.com/qdCpNJ2[DOT]png
And here are the screenshots (and the apk) of the rest of the application that are themed properly so you can preview what I have done so far:
dropbox[DOT]com/sh/nbbwh3wh6k2lvrx/AABDvP5ikfe7phgrhKAibgjka?dl=0
I'M SORRY BUT THE FORUM IS PREVENTING ME FROM POSTING THE LINKS TO SCREENSHOTS AND APK BECAUSE I'M NEW TO THE FORUM
SO I HAD TO IMPROVISE WITH ADDING "DOT"
Thank you in advance!
I hope someone will be able to help me finish this theming
Any updates on this?
