Center-clock mod for CM7? - Vibrant Themes and Apps

First off, I'm not one who likes to post requests, but I have tried many different things to get this to work for the past couple of months, and I'm finally at my wits-end, so im resorting to a request.
I stopped my theming endeavours once CM7 came out, so I have minimal experience with gingerbread theming aside from basic morphing. I know ICS is the craze on our forum right now, but im posting this in hopes that someone knowledgable, with some spare time, would be willing to help me out.
there are a few center clock mods floating around out there, but none of them will work on the Vibrant. ive tried using the tutorial in this thread several times, but no luck.
PS - yes, i am indeed aware that AOKP has the center-clock feature. Ive tried many ICS roms, and they do not meet my personal needs....juuuust in case anyone was wondering. anyone who knows me well enough on this forum knows that I am extremely anal and picky, and i am often behind the pack due to my stubbornness.
Thanks ahead.

Upload the framework-res.apk and the SystemUI.apk and Ill give it a go for you.

thank you sir

I dont run CM7 so I didnt test this. Please make a full nandroid backup before pushing this.
Push this to /system/framework

Flashable version

No-go. I flashed it, it didn't mess anything up, but didn't change anything either. Odd

SystemUI.apk is in /system/app not /system/framework, that's why nothing happened.

[REQUEST] Droid 2 browser.apk

Hi everybody, im wondering if anyone would be able to pull and post their browser.apk here for me (from fission vanilla and the stock if at all possible)!? Im active in the evo 4g sections and unfortunately, all the sense based browsers are difficult because of one function, PINCH TO ZOOM! Stupid HTC has is set by default(and cannot be permanently changed) to rejustify text on pinch to zoom, which doesnt sound bad, but trust me, makes for an AWFUL experience trying to browse the web. Every time i try to zoom in on a button or on a picture or anything, it gets moved 2 or 3 screens over... I cant TAKE IT!!! so it would be lovely if any of you wonderful people might be able to help me out and ill see if i can get that baby installed one way or another, thank you!
Not sure if the Browser.apk from our phones will work on yours. Try downloading and extracting the apk from one of the roms posted in the D2 development forum. Stock is Blur-based and definitely won't work, but you can try Fission (Vanilla). Might work for ya. Good luck!

thank you very much for the link! and i honestly would've gotten it myself had i realized it was as simple as yoinking it from the zip lol. somehow i didnt think you'd be able to get very far into the rom without it being flashed, but i guess it just shows how much i am at the mercy of everybody here still, thank you again!

[GUIDE THEME] GingerSwype

Ok guys so with a ton of reading and researching here's a little thing I was trying to figure out for awhile and finally did it so Im going to share a little guide. Now non of this is mine, I just follow instructions well
With all the Gingerbread talk/themes I haven't seen anyone here theme the stock MT4G Swype. I'm on CM7 Nightlies but I believe it should also work with stock MT4G sense since I pulled it from there.
Now before we begin I take no responsibility if this bricks your phone or make it burst in flames. This guide does need a know how to adb and have jdk and jre installed properly to sign the apk.
First we need the stock swype:
-I followed this guide from Marine6680
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=959192&highlight=swype
Now we need the Gingerbread Theme for Swype:
-I got the files from Marurban
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=930306
-The file we need is the 2.6 v0.3 WVGA without Mic
Marurban's guide was kinda confusing and that was where I was having a little trouble. So then I found stone_ship's guide and helped me a lot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=955721
I simply copied just all the keyboard pngs and left glow and wcw png stock. I still need to learn how to change the font color on the popup
After you have signed your themed swype.apk use Marine6680's guide to install it back to your phone. If your having trouble with this I will try with the best of my ability to help but no promises Enjoy!
Also Please thank Marine6600, Marurban and stone_ship for their guides to make this possible.
FYI, you do relize that if you are just replacing the images as you did, that it can be done in about 10 seconds using 7zip. You dont need to resign the zip, no Apk Manager or anything like that. And this isnt really a "Guide" but just a post with links to guides from other people. If you would like a "Guide on image replacement using 7zip" I will be happy to help.

Did you even read the OP? It clearly says he didn't do anything as he took it from other peoples stuff, it even has name of the people on it. I guess he just found it confusing from original doc so he wrote his own but IDK why he posted here.

No I didnt read the OP, I just posted blindly. WTF kind of stupid comment is that?
When someone makes a thread with "Guide Theme" in the title, I kinda EXPECT A GUIDE. Not links to guides. Second I am in no way trying to flame this guy (like you tried to do to me) but let him know that there is much easier ways to achieve what he has done. I also even offered to help him make a simple GUIDE for doing this.
And whats up with your post? And I quote:

My point with that is it is easy to pick apart someones post huh.
I mean, I dont even know why you posted in this thread. Your comment added absolutly no help to the thread and only tried to flame me.
I will now end this rant before I say something I shouldnt
And your comment added so much help, maybe you should write another EZ guide for it. No one flamed you as you simply try to bash the guy without clearly comprehending what he did. No one cares what you expected thats like you claiming to write guides from using other peoples and not giving them credit for it.
Whoa... Sorry for this guys all I wanted to do was share what I found out myself cause I wanted to theme my swype to gingerbread and didn't know how. So instead of asking I just read up and searched and didn't come up with anything simple. My bad for thinking it might help people.
Mod can you lock or delete this please

Don't worry about it the guy is a troll and thief its just funny as he steal other peoples stuff then claim he writes them but when you did something and even properly named people where you got it from he try to bash you. As I said "I guess he just found it confusing from original doc so he wrote his own but IDK why he posted here." You don't need to apologize you did what you thought would help others in good intention, that is what matters regardless of the trolling from hypocrites. We are here to help others.
TrueBlue_Drew said:
First let me apologize for your mucking up your thread. My original post was only meant to offer help to you and somehow it has turned into this.
There is no reason to lock or delete this thread, you did nothing wrong. As a matter of fact you did a great job of researching and figuring out how to do what you wanted to do. I was only offering help to make this more of a guide for what you did and help show you a easier way of achieving it, so you could in turn help people easier. Setting up APK manager and the other things you metioned can be time consuming, especially if you aren't familiar with how to do it.

No problem lets just start a new and please tell me how an easier way can be done. cause all the things I've read about theming swype was thru either metamorph (I'm still reading up on how to make one) and thru Ninjamorph which force closes on my swype. I never ran into 7zip like you mentioned. I usually just read and try to figure things out myself so please do explain
Im always up to new challenges and now knowing how apk manager sorta works I can deep dive on what I might or might not be capable of doing. its really an interesting program
It'd be nice to have something like this for the current beta version. I can't give up my voice-input button. No way.

Well you can still do it, just use the guide and download Marurban's gingerbread theme with the mic on it.
Seems like I missed the party...any how...what's the easiest way to get gingerbread Swype? I don't have my stock mt4g Swype anymore ...hehe!

[Q] Porting theme from one ROM to another

Hi, I wanted to use my currently theme on sensation rom on another rom, How can I do that? Is that possible? I know that we can change anything on theme via these three files, framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk and twframework-res.apk and I know that it may not compatible on other rom, But How can I do that?
Thanks in advance.

i am trying to do the same thing.. but still not successful. OMG this thread is 7 months old & not a single reply from any of the devs.
Right. And the devs do nothing but sit around staring at their screens all day until people post questions in Q&A, and the moment that happens they answer said questions within 5 minutes of them being posted.
Tell me...what is 'dev' an abbreviation of ? I'll give you a clue. It's developer. And developers develop. They make stuff. Stuff they're interested in working on. They don't actually sit around all day waiting for questions to get posted in Q&A (I lied), and the chances of a dev reading a 7 mth old thread with some request from someone who wanted a theme from one rom ported to another rom is 1 in 456^901234 (that's a really remote chance in case you can't work it out).
So...I have some advice for you. Port it yourself. Theming is basic compared to coding. There are tutorials around XDA and elsewhere, and funnily enough, the Themes section has a famous basic tutorial. If you can handle/get through this, you might just be able to port this.
If you can't, you're out of luck.

[Q] Theming

Hey guys,
After doing a bit of research, I'm having some troubles. I would like to learn how to theme, but most of the guides and stuff that I come upon are pretty old (1-2 years), and I'm afraid they would be out of date.
Does anyone have any good, current sources where I can learn the ins-and-outs of theming?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1320891 Check this tread out they have a lot of different subjects on how to theme. The issue is going to be modifying sense 4.0 since there is not much there can be done yet till there can be an update to the m10 decompiler. Hope this helps you, sorry if not much help.

That is the last I know Diamondback says it will be about 2 weeks for him to release the update for the decompiler but there is not a specific date but the good news is that soon we will have something to work with.
When I look at the ultimate guide to theming, which I have a couple of times, the first thing it mentions is stericsons apk signer. However, when I go to that thread he says that you can't sign apk's with windows 7. Is that true? If so, how do I work around it?

I am not sure what guide you are referring to, but I know it works on Vista and XP and I believe I have gotten to sign on W7 but not sure I rearly use that for themeing. I have used apktools and apktools manager so I have not tried stericsons signer.

[IDEA] Multiview all apps

I don't know if anyone is working on it yet, but has anyone looked at making all apps available for multiview like they have in the link below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1995697
I downloaded the odexed file and there are only two files. services.odex and FlashBarService.apk .... unfortunately I'm not sure what either of those files do so I haven't replaced them on my phone yet to give them a try.
Can anyone give some insight on whether they think that the international versions files (just those two) would be similar to ours?
Just hoping to get some brain storming going to see if this can be figured out.

Looks like services.jar and FlashBarService.apk are the two modified looking at the other Note variants mods.

I don't know for sure that they won't work, I'm not brave enough to risk it either, but from a lot of the discussion i've read on rooting the phone, the international version is more different from the Verizon version than it looks like on the surface. I'm sure whatever edits need to be made to give our devices this ability are very similar, just unlikely to be exact, but that's just a semi-educated guess really.
As for whether or not it's being worked on? Absolutely. I know beanstown106 is working on adding that and I've read posts from other people tinkering with those files as well trying to add that functionality. Considering several developers have been working on it, but nothing is released yet, I'd say it's safe to assume the international versions do not work on the Verizon version. The development discussion would be pointless if it did, and these are pretty smart guys who I'm sure thought of that already.
I know it would be a long shot that those files would work in our device, maybe we can look into the files to see what was changed and make those changes on our system.
Just read the rest of your post... if others are working on it then this thread can be deleted if it's pointless.
Just very excited for this feature.
