The thread listed here is pretty old and it does not apply to my Epic Tough running 2.3.6. I am trying to accomplish the same thing but can not seem to locate any proper info on how to do it. I am still new to reading code and messing with .smali files and xml's but I have no problem learning. If anyone knows where I may be able to find the proper info for my phone or a SGS II equivalent please let me know.
I have tried the lockscreen mods but they all seem to give me Hot Reboots since most of the framework and jar files seem to have errors in them. I can deal with out the lockscreen mod but I truly like the text based battery and CM is not a choice for me at this moment until they get it stable.
I have also send the OP a PM but no response in days...
Thx for your help

Hmm, this should be fairly simple. In theory, at least.
I would have thought it's just a case of adding some strings, then changing the drawable xml files. But I can't try it today as I'm out on the road. Hopefully I can try this tomorrow and I'll report back.

Use the uot kitchen online. You can tweek to your hearts desire..

In the screenshot you have posted, it's an app that's doing it with the battery icon hidden on MIUI with extended settings. I have the same setup. Give me a sec and I'll post a picture. I believe the app I use is called Battery Status.
Unless you're running MIUI or another ROM where you can hide the battery icon, you'll have duplicate icons - one in the normal spot and one on the other side.
Here's the screenshot of mine with the same concept.
EDIT:
Nevermind, I was seeing my own status bar when I opened the image through Tapatalk. Now I feel like an idiot.
This setup is native in CM and in TSM tweaks as well as EDT tweaks. I simply just want to use pct text and not PNG files. Tux for the uot kitchen ref but that's not what I am looking for. Uot is old school to me but they do serve a great purpose. The screenshot is not an app though since I linked the mod in my post.

No problem. I'm pretty certain I know how to do this but I'm not in a position to try it out for a few hours.
If I'm right though, it should just be a case of changing three xml files. No smali, which is always a good thing..
Oh, and this should work on any rom on any version of Android.

From the few tutorials I have found you are usually adding lines to smali. I have no problems making those changes either if necessary. I am just sick of the icon based battery and prefer text with % after it.... Thx I await your results
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
Well, that didn't work. I spent ages tweaking the code to get it to compile but all it does is just remove the battery entirely.
I was trying to display strings instead of drawables but..oh well.
If you want to do this with your phone's font, you'll need to edit some smali..somewhere. Unfortunately that stuff is still mostly over my head.
Or you could just make some image files that only have text in them. It's a bit of a cheat but it could have the effect you're after.
Sent from my U20i using xda premium
Thanks man I thought about changing the PNG files but I would prefer not to...lol
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
It may be the best way really. Otherwise you have to find the smali code that uses the battery image xml file and alter it to...something..

The best way to do this is use one of the number icons available in Tickle My Android..
That is not the best way to do it at all... The best way to do it is breakdown the xml for the ui your looking at and add the xml for it and take the statusbar_battery.xml and where it points to @drawable/stat_sys_battery1 yeah well point it to @strings/stat_sys_bat_1 and create the string for it and every other battery line bam done! Thats the best way I can see it being done... Adding it to the given ui is a different story all together changing it is much easier than adding it.. Adding it requires you go into statusbar.smali and copy and paste the whole section of code that controls the battery and asign a new variable to it to make it work and im not even sure if that would work Im just guessing here I work with sense not aosp but its all the same crap..

So Now that I have this looking presentable I figured it could use its own thread... This is a port of a theme posted in our forum...
Not sure where the rest of the images came from, but the icons are ibox by hockey... who does some pretty amazing theme work.
This its a metamorph this is not a flashable .zip file... This is got the hybrid roms.. please unzip the file and open the readme... it is full of useful information... Including the winning lottery numbers for tomorrow night... If you have any problems or suggestions, remember to use respect and be polite...
As always I am not responsible for what you install on your phone, do a Nandroid before installing, read and research before asking a question in this thread, and please dont clutter this thread...

No there is not a stock... Im not gonna take the time to make a revert for every morph I make... just do a nandroid,
Or download NinjaMorph from the market
Pick new Projects for

each of these get saved in a workspace folderand is an extracted form of the apk... to revert to stock just finish existing project and choose the desired apk to untheme....

Yes, theyre all the same. But when I start theming new files I make a new uninstaller because the previous one doesn't have the new files. I'm changing all my links to mediafire which will make it easier to keep organized and allow folder browsing.

Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Though not all the themes have suited my personal taste, I just want to quickly say how utterly impressive it is that you can turn out this many themes for this phone, and that all of them just seem rock solid. The ATRIX community should consider themselves very lucky!
Speaking of my taste, if there is any way you could whip up something like the following, I would be VERY grateful:
I would love to see a theme not too different from the Motorola one in your 1% battery thread, but maybe just with a nice circular battery, black task bar (maybe a little transparent or highlighted. Whatever looks good), and a black-to-Grey transparent notification drop down, similar to the blue one in the stock ROM. To whatever degree possible, I would also like to see black menus (like the menu that pops up when menu button is pressed while on the home screen). I think that would be more in keeping with Gingerbread than the Froyo-like white ones in the stock ROM.
Anyway, I realize you are very busy, and like I said, I appreciate your work, so I'll understand if you can't get to something like this. Just a request
Thanks again!!!

Changelog:
2011_11_24-2 - Figured out the tab above the dialer and changed it to black
2011_11_24 - Figured out the background image...took a while to line up the pressed image with the lines..LOL and moved the delete arrow a bit to the left to not overlap with the text box
2011_11_23 - Changed the delete arrow coloring to blue and black when pressed..Can't figure out this damn contact picture right next to *18 in picture..where the hell is that!?
2011_11_20 - Changed in-call contact pic to blue Android - attempted to change arrow in text field to theme black and blue...didn't work..wondering if that's a sys or framework thing...
To install - MAKE A NANDROID BACK UP FIRST JUST IN CASE
- Download both apks to your sdcard
- Move them to the /system/media/ folder
- Change permissions to: rw-r-r for both
- Move both apks to the /system/app/ folder
- Reboot and enjoy!!
Things to do:
1) [DONE] Theme the BlurPhone.apk
2) [DONE] I would like to remove the lines under the Add to contact and Microphone buttons.
3) [DONE] I want the top section (dialer, recent, contacts, favorites) with a black background
4) Make the text section where it shows your most recent call in black as well
5) Make contact image (next to *18) the Android from the ic_pane Android
Any help would be totally appreciated!! Thanks to the devs and again give thanks to MedicStuder!
Nice start.....
[APP] - Themed BlurPhone.apk
I updated the original post with the BlurPhone.apk - It's not much of a theme, but I hope this helps people out there!
I like it. So does the contact photo ever show or just the blue android guy?
The contact will show if you have a picture for that contact in place. If you don't have a picture, then the Android will show. If you have an unknown, the Android will show.

Actually, as it turns out it looks like each number has the line built in, so the background can be completely blank. This was really helpful. I'll try to get to work on this tomorrow!
Hey bear,
Got this dialer to work out now. It's actually the background image that needed changing up! Thanks for the post though! NEW DIALER IS UP ON OP!
EDIT: Changed the dialer file there because I've finally found the background for the tabs!
So just the dialer.apk file has been updated, not the phone.apk? I just want to make sure I don't reload the file if I don't need to.
Maybe have separate changelog for each file would help?
Yes, just the dialer has been updated. Will do regarding the Change log.

Hi!
Thanks for checking it out...I'm not sure if you have to be running a de-odexed ROM to have these APKs...but you do need to be rooted to push these to the phone.
If you run Joker's ROM for the electrify, you might be able to flash my Underground Sea theme over it which includes the dialer and phone.apks..
Sorry, I wish i could help you out more, but I don't have an electrify...
It seems that everybody is quite busy theming ROMs, and since I am stucked with using stock ROM, I wanted to have those like found in MIUI and the default ICS status bars. I kinda want my clock to be in center and etc. I presume that I might load up Kitchen just to customize, but it seems that I can't find my preference on the said tool. Any suggestions?

And dont worry abt background and the the status bar bottom and top. I made the top visible so that you can see and background white so that you cannot see the main idea that is behind it of "miu-y rom". Everything will be changed except for the buttons.

It's a nice idea. I've downloaded it before and it was too buggy. :/
Took me a while to get it off as it kept making my phone freeze. But do try, he might have fixed bugs already. Also I think it doesn't work well with LDPI.
Btw what theme was the screenshot above? Those icons are nice.
The ones you have asked review about looks good. Yes we can make it. But the thing is that the toggles will be up instead of down. All you have to do is reduce size of background of toggles and the toggles as well. I bet this is a 14 toggled lidroid. (we will still use lidroid). Reduce toggle size and background size from both, the lidroid-res.apk and systemui.apk.

But i will say that will be too small as we are having an idpi phone and screen is already too small. So better keep it big.

Took me a while to get it off as it kept making my phone freeze. But do try, he might have fixed bugs already. Also I think it doesn't work well with LDPI.
Btw what theme was the screenshot above? Those icons are nice.

I dunno, I found it on the home screen thread. XD
Might be trying that app, hoping not to receive freezes!

The ones you have asked review about looks good. Yes we can make it. But the thing is that the toggles will be up instead of down. All you have to do is reduce size of background of toggles and the toggles as well. I bet this is a 14 toggled lidroid. (we will still use lidroid). Reduce toggle size and background size from both, the lidroid-res.apk and systemui.apk.

I think it'll be somehow like the CM ones where the icons are small?

Yes. A little bit like cm. What we can do is make the background of toggles rectangular (like in creeds v2.5 and cyanogenmod7) and then small down buttons. This way we can increase the press area (you will press what you want. If we keep it too small, we will press "data" button instead of wifi and lose money). This way we will also have toggles and the height will be small as well.

I am running CM9 Alpha 3 and I have always wanted soft keys on my X2 because I just do not like the hard buttons. I found the thread about how to enable them on ICS Roms and it is fairly simple to do. I contacted DK on twitter to see if he may add them in a later update and he said he was not going to add them. I tried to do it last night and I just could not get APKTool to re-compile the Framework-res.apk.
Could someone who is able to re-compile an .apk possibly try this for me, it is only 2 edits to a couple of .xml files inside of the Framework-res.apk and adding 4 .png files to the SystemUI.apk. I only need the Framework-res.apk as I have already added the .png's to my SystemUI.apk. Here is the link to the mod and thank you to whoever will do it for me.
How to enable soft keys
Or you could download Button Savior and save yourself the headache.

Thanks but its not the same and it gets in the way. The mod is very easy to do, I just cannot get APKTool to re-compile. The whole mod takes less than ten minutes.

I heard if you used 7-Zip, you can take files out and put them in without extracting and messing with the APKs signature. Maybe you can just use it to take out the XML file and edit it and put it back in with the images too. Then replace the file on your phone.

Thanks but, you have to edit the bool.xml inside the framework-res.apk/res/values and the only way to get to it is to de-compile it.

Ah. Well Id help if I knew how to decompile and recompile. But I dont. Sorry man.
Not being a DB,but I guess I'm confused. You wont be able to use the soft key area but for only that. At least with the Button Savior app, you can tap it and it disappears. You don't loose any screen space. Then again, it doesn't look as cool as the soft keys......

Your not being a DB. Button Savior would always be in the way whereas the soft keys would stay out of the way with only taken up about 37 px ( about the size of the status bar ). I just think with the size of our screens that it would benefit the experience.

Well, I got the framework-res.apk to re-compile but the arsc file is half the size it was and when flashed I get a USB error that says something like " activity?$%'*: USB is not responding please select a USB application ".

What exactly is it you don't like about the buttons, if you don't mind me asking?

All the phones I have owned before this one have had capacitive buttons. Not to sound too lazy but, having to physically press the button vs just tapping the screen is annoying to me plus I like the way it looks.

So i was messing around with this and got the apk and zip signed. But when I flashed the zip it bootlooped. It went through one cycle like it would start up, flashed the lock screen, then went back to boot screen. When it flashed the screen it looked like there was a place where the soft keys should be that was just black and the rest of the screen had not been resized to fit it the keys were in place. I have a video uploading if anybody wants to see what happened(I'll add it when it's finished).
I should add, I'm not too concerned with having these, I just thought it would be an interesting project to try out. Seems like there are at least a few people that would use this.
Edit: Here is the link to the video

Boom. Got them on here. Having some of the market compatibility issues though.

Haha I'll try to make a zip. Never have before though. I just changed what I needed to and repackaged dzk's alpha 3.
Again though, the screen looks pretty weird in parts. I'm going to try to find a fix for that tomorrow. Apparently it's something with the dpi of the screen. I'm pretty new to this so I'll have to do some digging

That looks good, I personally don't need 'em but I know other people will.

Well no rush. I sometimes get annoyed at night by my buttons lol. I'll definitely use those when alpha 4 comes out
