I present to you the BlurXtremeDialer
Ok everyone I finally completed my first themed apk. I am really proud of myself and really excited with what I came up with.
This project was started because of a requestt that Admiralj21 had. I told him I would take it upon myself and see what I could come up with.
Attached are the before and after screen shots. I have only tested this on my mopho.
To install:
1)Download attached apk
2)Using a file explorer (i.e. root explorer) navagate to where you downloaded the apk to. Select to move it.
3)Move file to system/app and change to r/w then paste
4)should automatically replace the stock blurdialer.apk
5)navagate to the BlurDialer.apk and set it's permissions to what's shown in the picture
6)reboot and enjoy
Credit where credit is due:
xtremekilla09 - for the icons and a base to work from. If it wasn't for him I wouldn't have been able to complete this. If you like the icons please donate to him. He is the original creator of the xtreme dialer
Admiralj21 - for coming up with the idea
Any questions please post in thread. I will try and post instructors on what I did to get to this point so that way anyone else trying to learn to theme might find it helpful. Also, I am by far not a true themer. I am just learning how to do this and this is the first thing I have truely themed, so I am really excited.
Any ROM dev's please feel free to use this in your roms. All I ask is that you make sure to give credit to xtremekilla09 and myself.
TEASER-I will be working on a full theme based off this dialer...stay tuned...please don't ask for ETA's as I am working 3 jobs and have a family to take care of so It could take me a little while.
Remember we all do this for fun but donations help to support theming and dev's. If you like my work please feel free to donate. Also don't forget about xtremekilla09. Also don't forget the thanks button
Mine to post theme instructions later

It's pretty good but I can't stand the look. It's hideous.
Sent from my tf9001 with XDA XD.
Thanks for this, I've been using swiftkey x for awhile and the auto correction from these SwiftKey keyboards is insane. Not so sure about the split layout, but fortunately there's a button for that. Hopefully this is just because it's beta but for some reason it seems a little different from swiftkey x on my phone; not in a good way.(maybe just cause it's tablet version)

Also or those of you that don't like the look, go into the settings and try a different theme. I'm using neon and I think it looks great.
Edit: I figured it out the thing thats different is the autocorrect isn't quite as good. I tested misspelling words on my phone(with swiftkey x) and on my tablet(with this) and my phone corrected almost all of my misspellings where as my tablet did not. This is probably just part of it being in beta though.
Another thing I found that I think is new is that if you forget a space between words sometimes it will put it in for you.

I am a happy Swiftkey X customer. With version 3 they are going to enhance what was already near-perfect. I already am in love with this beta.
Just one thought: has the "Gestures (swiping) enable/disable option" disappeared? I miss it.
Does Swiftkey have any of the customization features that Thumb Keyboard offers? I use Swiftkey on my phone and love it, but Thumb Keyboard has been the best experience with an on screen keyboard I've ever had. Particularly the "quick text"/pinned text feature. Thanks in advance.

This is the most art i have in me...."paper artist" lol
if you like to draw things on your phone i can really recommend "Colors!"
it's a great drawing app originally made for the nintendo DS as homebrew, but now available for 3DS, iPhone, and the Galaxy Note series.
it's not optimized yet for the note2's improved stylus, but it's still a good drawing app.

The pen sensitivity of the Galaxy Note 2 is a definite improvement.
Has anyone tried using sketchbook and could talk about the pressure sensitivity of the s-pen? Does it have 4 levels like the first note?

That was kinda my point with it... Not really seeing much other than what is already out there...
What it give you? What's it gonna get with it?
A simple "not interested" would've sufficed. And its only looking like that because of a theme, which can be done with pretty much any other touchwhiz ROM as well. And in my opinion that looks pretty nasty. I like the look of "goodness" ROM and not over the top.
And the thing about all these different roms is to make them look different otherwise they're all built off of stock.

Boy, let's keep developers from posting their work, that's what you do.
First time I saw BigToysRock's work was on the Sprint E4GT. He's a good dude that does good work. I'd like to see what he has to offer. Don't let the doubters get in your way man :thumbup:

I guess this isn't a collaborative thread or am I mistaken...
I am always interested in finding new roms and different looks and devs to try and get new stuff going. I was just putting out there.
I am looking for a lightweight 4.1.2 rom so I can get something going with the dual boot...
Now if people want to take offence or take shots at me, please go right ahead and I hope you feel better about yourself if you had a crappy day.
I am always interested in trying new stuff on my phone.
Just looking for some similarities and what to look for in something new that is coming maybe to our phone.

10-12 Note 2 ROMs are not enough? There are web sites that list them all.
Ridin' a Note 2 blast
I would try the rom. Looks interesting. Only thing in the change log that I didn't see mentioned, is if you can change the carrier text to whatever you wanted. Also if group messaging will work for Verizon without being individual messages. PITA when you cant respond in the same group conversation. I don't think there are enough quality roms for our Verizon N2. There is numerous roms for sprint and att.
Agree with you and your very thought out post. Plus hmmmm 72 internets?
