Hey all,
I am about to embark on seeing if it is possible to theme the BlurDialer apk to an ICS look and feel.
I just wanted to get thoughts on if this is feasible at this current stage and if anyone has any tips/hints for me to speed up the development of this mod.
Thanks!
Ive got a SGN and the blue dialer is cool but lacks call filtering like Incoming, Outgoing, Missed, ECT
Hello XDA Members,
I want you to join me on a project in creating an theme for the Galaxy Player.
The Goal of this project should be:
- The compatibility to all Galaxy Players
- An consistent theme to all Galaxy Players, it should be modern and themed for everyone.
- It should be available to some launchers.
Everyone is free to join.
Everyone can take part.
At this time, i'm searching members for the project.
Post here and give your idea how it should look like.
Also if you are interested in creating pictures for the theme or coding the theme you also can post here.
First of all we need a name.
Post your Ideas.
Mike "Tecardo" Leitner
Since Samsung hasn't interest in update of our Galaxy Player... We must create a ICS Theme or Launcher very similar to original... That's my opinion cuz i really like the appearance of ICS
this was also an idea of me,
The Holo Theme is simple, modern and nice.
Meh I don't like the ICS theme that much. There is already a theme for that.
I wanted a MIUI theme, becuase no one has achieved to port MIUI launcher to the Player yet (if I'm correct). Something elegant is nice in my opinion.
But I have no knowledge of coding, sorry .
I do like this project though!
How about change GlassLock screen to TapLock?
I think Tap lock is looks good
I'm intrigued....

I think this website will be helpful for us when we make
ICS theme maybe(?). We can see many detailes about ICS looks(?) in this website
Yes, i know about this site.
It is important, that we make something, that everyone of us would accept.
That means also some drawbacks for some
A list of your ideas:
An ICS Style
An MIUI Style and TapLock instead of GlassLock.
Instead of creating a ICS theme from scratch, we can try porting Vertumus' ICS Domination Theme if he allows us to. It will be easier than building from scratch.
Yes, right.. I will try this this week.
I'm busy with ics and miui.

Dear Xperia S users,
I really love the Xnew Sony Xperia S since I tested it in my local Smartphone shop so I ordered my unit this week and I will receive it Tuesday or Wednesday probably
Some of you might already know me or my work on the Xperia 2011 devices, but some of you probably don't know me at all so here is a short introduction:
I am a 20year old student that started developing for some Xperia 2011 devices on XDA. I started development recently, only a month ago, when the official ICS beta came out
Since then I developed a custom rom named KA Ice Cream Sony (KA = KrabAppel, and I really loved the sound of Ice Cream Sony) I also chose this name because my rom is based on the Sony theme
Those who want to check out what I already made for the 2011 Xperia devices here are the threads:
Xperia Neo & Neo V: Xperia Neo KA ICS thread
Xperia Arc & Arc S: Xperia Arc KA ICS thread
Xperia Ray: Xperia Ray KA ICS thread
Xperia Play: Xperia Play KA ICS thread
Now I'll finally get to the point Since I'm receiving my Xperia s next week, I'm also going to start development for the SXS, but the question is:
How do you want my rom to be themed, which add-ons would you like to have and so on
Some examples:
- ICS themed, status bar widgets, reboot option in power menu and on screen button enabler
- Based on Sony ICS beta theme, framework mods like AOSP lockscreen etc, auto-rotating home
- ...
This information would really be useful, so i can prepare my rom as much as possible to the general needs of the Xperia S users
The Xperia S isn't a cheap phone, so if anyone feels free to donate a little bit amount I can increase my resources for the rom (and maybe kernel) development of Xperia S. Don't donate because I post this, only if you really want to support me
Thank you for you're support and trust in all the devs
hello,
AOSP lockscreen: will lost the notification lockscreen???
can you make "volume button" enable wake up screen???
thanks
-ICS and Sony ICS lockscreen.
-Notifications for emails, messages, lost calls, etc.
-Change track via long pressing volume button.
-ICS or Sony ICS theme.
-Power widgets on status bar
-Brightness slider on status bar
-Weather on status bar (just like AOKP)
Well, I can remember just this right now. If I think on something else, I will tell.

I don't know about the AOSP lockscreen and notifications, the framework of Xperia S is pretty different so I'll have to do some testing with it first before I can fully start developing without a lot of mistakes

Ok, I'll try to do as many as possible I like Sony ICS theme, so I could do that probably
how about the recovery option and i like the ics option
Make it fast,smooth,stable and with a better battery life would be really awesome
I'd like stock android, with no addons what so ever

That's how I use my own rom without add-ons
I am not sure how far it's possible to do so, but i would appreciate a MIUI port for our Xperia S
The work you've done on the Arc looks great, I didn't need to look at the others! That sort of development for our great phone will be much appreciated and I will very much look forward to your work!

I'm not into MIUI development but I'm sure someone else will make an MIUI rom for Xperia S

Thanks I will receive my Xperia S tomorrow or Wednesday
Gamer OS -stripped as much as possible and graphically optimalise,
tweak tweak for gaming ??
more free ram
battery life improved
improved hardware accelation !!
Possibly 2.0ghz overclocking
"something like wolf-rom(x10) you like particular tweak, app,wigdet you download a package-not much preinstalled"
Improved music output, automatic album art download, burst mode in camera, track switching with volume keys, option to select number of home screens...
Thank you.
Change the volume rocker, so it will both have a vibrate and no-vibrate state at the bottom. This is default in htc roms, and for example cyanogenmod has an option for this in the settings.

I believe this doesn't work in stock player at all if you unlock bootloader, because DRM keys are lost.

Thanks for the replies
I am a little confused... Your stock version have a mixture of Sony ICS and vanilla ICS theme? If I'm right, you should do small add ons with each part of the themed things (like one for SystemUI, other for MMS, other for lockscreen, for example). Got it?
The bane of ICS for me and my OCD is the terrible mixture of froyo and gingerbread style sony apps with the new ICS theme. I'm sure it goes against the conventions set in google's guidelines on how to make apps for ICS and its slowly but sure driving me me me much more insane.
I would be grateful on a discussion of what can be done to remedy this dreadful plight... I have gathered a couple of ideas but I am looking for more!
1. The music player has ghastly bubbles in its corners and does not fit with ICS theme.
in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716549
Lasanda links to a thread with an APK that updates the default player to a walkman version ripped by doomlord which can be found in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1676013
also I would suggest trying out vanilla music player, it's open source and works with the new lockscreen as well as having widgets that work in other launchers. I can't get the album artwork to work on my mini though (while it works no problem on an android mediaplayer I also have) so would appreciate if anyone else has any input.
2. The home screen's capped framerate now looks laggy since the ICS ui has significantly improved graphical performance from extra use of the GPU. The color scheme and style of the bubbles is also out of phase with the new ICS theme. They shoulda just changed the bubbles for futurisitic triangles or something.
- the best I've managed so far is replacing with zeam
3. call screen : bubbles/
-no idea, if anyone has any clue what to do here if and how to replace the call screen I would be happy and give you my thanks.
Apart from lack of encryption and this poor theme, ICS is good for me. Please share any more tips to improve it further though
thanks
