Hello guys.
I have been a part of the Themer Beta team. I guess many of you are too. I think you noticed that we can only export the themes as zip files and in no way publish these to the Play Store to get ratings or proper feedback.
I was thinking about releasing an app (open source) which everyone can use within their themes to publish them to the Play Store (unless the Themer Team makes an official feature like that available).
Any ideas or recommendations as such are welcome.
It is a nice idea for sure. But i would suggest u first talk it out with the themer team if they have any similar plans ...
i think they are working just like mycolorscreen web. Love? button and adding some extra feature like Download. And also link the web acc with android acc so that the theme will automatically download to your phone from web.

I did have a talk with the admin at MCS. He said that all themes are to be sent to him. Its kind of a downer for an app with such capabillties. More people would have participated and published their themes if it had this feature since they would have got a bit of appreciation and feedback from users too.
I found a workaround which we can use to publish the themes to Play Store until its added officially (that is if its ever added).
I'll publish it at night.

Some other would also want to do that. Could you tell us about the workaround?
As the matter of sending themes, there should be an option to publish the theme within the app (something like "Request publishing" that will export and send current theme to MSC Admin via e-mail app).

I was just about to make the thread now. Its open source. Check it out in about 10 mins.
Here's the thread if anyone wants to publish your themes to the Play Store.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2475517
Take a look if you are interested in it.
I have a question, coming I'm sure from a place of profound ignorance, but couldn't people upload the .zips to dropbox and others could download them and put them in the themer folder themselves?

Already did that. But you need to play with number to fit urs. Others res might be different from urs.

First of all, you have to download themes from the inbuilt browser to use the themes. Even if u put the zip in the exported folder, you can't see the screenshots. You have to apply the theme, export it again, then apply again to see the screenshots. Too much hassle.
Why not just put the zip and screenies in 2 folders of the app which would do everything for you?
And I made this especially for themers who would like to publish themes to the Play Store which is much more convenient IMO. Others can just mail their theme to the admin at MCS to have them hosted privately.
Not sure where to put this since there is no Bugs/Suggestions thread in this section, so I'm putting this here.
@ThemerSupport
A few suggestions if you don't mind.
Add support for custom ROMs since almost every launcher out there has support for this.
Option to publish themes to the Play Store. Its a huge drawback I found for themers who publish to the Store. (The only reason I published a workaround for it since it lacks official support)
Make a Bugs/Suggestions thread.
Great job you all did!

Hi there!
I've started this project to make an application to track myself when i'm out walking with my lovely touch pro.
Now i would like to make it open source and free for all trekking amateurs, and i'm posting this here to get some advice and to see if someone is interested.
I would like to make a simple and beautiful application, that doesen't drain the battery and that allow to record and repeat trails, store waypoints, integrate some mappings and exchange data with google earth or others apps. It might include some geocaching features and online sharing stuffs as well...
The project is hosted on http://code.google.com/p/trailcompanion/
and i've set up a development blog here: trailcompanion.wordpress.com
I'm not releasing any cabs soon, just some source code to start and see what we can get...
however, if someone would like to be involved just show up here!
Here some screenshots:
*Edit 2009-08-30:
I've posted some updates and sample screenshots on the devel blog:
http://trailcompanion.wordpress.com/...lydays-update/
*Edit 2009-10-24:
Moved the post to this new section
First cab released, try it!
*Edit 2009-11-01:
Updated: some bugfixes
Get the cab here:

Now it should be compatible with all resolution phones and windows mobile 6.5.
Ok, Its not a problem with the Go Dev Team, nor is it a problem with the Go Store or any of their application running on any phone.
Im fairly new to all these launcher business, and themes, and the XDA forums helped a lot. Learned about the launchers from here (currently using go Launcher ex) and how to create a theme (using go Themesfactory). Also in the forums, i learned how to publish on the android market.... Which leads me to my point, do any of you guys know how to publish in the go theme store?
I was looking for any information on the go store. I already tried emailing the go dev team but so far they havent responded. I just wanted more exposure for my themes. Also the fact if you look at the themes on the go store, not all are made by the go dev team so it means there is a way to publish with them..
Any of you guys have any idea?

The themes have to be approved by sending them to the GO developers team. To be honest your better off using the market. Many people are pushing to have alot of the spamming crap removed from the go apps and some have even stopped using go apps till the device team comes cleaning about data mining and collecting concerns that have come to light.

Thanks. Altho im a bit worried about that Data Mining and collection you are mentioning. Is it inherent in the go dev teams apps and the themes they make or is it also included in the apps other people make using their tools? ie: Go Themes Factory

It seems to be built into the core apps. Have a look at the main Go SMS thread. Myself and another mod have asked questions concerning it and as of now have gotten no reply about it.
Hi! Is there any way to sort search results on the Google market e.g. after downloads or views or rating? Thanks.
Ad
Sent from my NexusHD2 using xda app-developers app
Not currently possible in the app, but it should be possible on the website.
Yeah on the website it works but whyyyy is Google not integrating it in the app.
Isn't there the possibility to integrate this function in a mod somehow?
Thx
Sent from my NexusHD2 using xda app-developers app
Even on the website, the only options are by Popularity and by Relevance.
I wish i could sort by Rating, by Developer, alphabetically...
google seems to make it on purpose not to let you sort the results... MADAFAKAZ!! :x

It can barely find information about anyone asking about sorting results from play store. xda developers must be only ones who think outside the box.
How we can make it sort every search results as i want.
Like downloads, stars e.t.c.?
Sorting seems to have been removed from the website as well. Damn it Google, why must you turn everything to ****.
I've just had to reinstall after a full reset, and this has to be one of the worst aspects of the play store. I wish I understood programming, but is there anyone can make an app to fix this lack of sortability and lack of filtering?
I'm with @Newtoys, why does google always go one step to far and mess up perfectly good things?
Agreed: Google makes it Harder, not Easier!
Searching for a small business collaboration app
Only returns results with app that have the word "collaboration" in the title?
If I was a developer, I would be reluctant to ever get involved,
how are potential customers supposed to find your App if you don't give it a name that sound too much alike all the other apps in the same category.
And Furthermore: I don't care about the icon, I want to be able to scan an encapsulation of the capacity of the app... Who cares what color the button is going to be on my screen !!!
If Google is the "Ultimate Search Engine" why then can't I use a Google search to go through the Play Store Apps..?
NO !!! Instead it returns a listing of Other Web Sites and the Apps that they recommend ?
I am with you guys on this. Been wondering this for years now. I also found it weird that when I try and Google search this issue, this thread is the only one relevant to our problem. I'd be willing DL a modified play store app even. The worst is when I want to see about any new/updated apex themes and I have to browse a library of themes I've seen before.

lol, exact same f##@ up when im going thru Layers themes !! Usually we need the latest updated themes since they work as expected with updated AOSP Roms...but stupid google wont let me sort a list of apps by the 'last updated' date !!
Any 3rd party apps that browse the entire play store app catalogue and have the ability to sort them by their last updated date ?
same here... i want to sort apps by it size since the day start using play store but never see such feature or any proper useful sorting method in play store.. and when google for sprting apps, i end up right here... hope some1 has the solution for this... seriously...
Share only with the apps you like
You could configure which apps are allowed to be shown in the "share with" list. If you have installed many apps, this app helps you to have a better overview.
Changed settings are applied immediately (except you change it in settings).
Important:
This app needs the Xposed Framework. The framework requires root access for installation. Don't forget to enable the module in Xposed. You can grab it here: Xposed Installer
Donation:
No self-promotion in the app.
More than 9 apps could be selected
You support this app and further development!

Just uploaded, Play Store is slow in publishing content, it needs up to 6 hours. If you can't wait for it, take a look at my website, it's Play Store independent
This is a fantastic idea! Just donated. Is there a chance this will be able to hide apps from the "open with" dialog as well in the future?

I'm really glad to hear that
Something I just found is, on Touchwiz roms, the 'Copy to Clipboard' share option doesn't appear in the list to be disabled. Everything else is working as intended though!
Very good, i really appreciate this module, could provide xml to translate it into the Spanish, thank you.

I've also a Samsung device, but installed a "Google Edition" image to get rid of TouchWiz
I'm not sure how Samsung handles this "Copy to Clipboard". I've tested https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=se.johanhil.clipboard and it works with CustomShare. Can you extract the Manifest.xml out of the .apk? You should find it in /system/app
I don't find the donate version but I'm ready to pay as soon as it reaches the Play Store.
FYI I can't hit again the donate mention at the bottom...
Very useful... Too much apps into this sharing menu!

Another potentially really useful module. :good:
I love having extra control with how my OS works.
Keep up the excellent work bro.
I know, no matter how much you charge, you (and many Devs) never get back what you put into it. Conceptualization and implementation is under valued.
Alright, I have done a good bit of cleaning. While doing so I deleted a couple of posts that weren't really offensive, but they related to the arguing that was taking place, so in regards to sanity, they got cleaned as well. Let's keep any potential criticism constructive and respectful, and any response to any potential criticism civil and respectful as well. Good? Good! Carry on civilians. :good:

Yes, it should work with Whatsapp Plus too.
Try free version first to be sure.
It takes some time to become live.
By now it may be online in Play too.
Udate : nope not yet live. Sometimes it takes 10 hours or so to become live. So if you like our work and want to buy the full version please wait till it becomes live.
And about replacing emojis yes it does that and thats what the name suggests but the real work behind that is not easy like just replacong a few images.
Alot of concentration is needed to correctly replace each emoji.

This has been something I've been waiting for a long while now so kudos!
Having said that, I don't quite understand why your paid module doesn't replace the entire emoji set. I mean, fair enough, it's a lengthy process, but before releasing a paid app in the Play store, you really should finish what you started.
That's just my 2 cents on the matter, I mean it in the best possible way. Good luck!

OK
This sounds very promising! I've been looking for a solution to replace the whatsapp emojis for long time!
First impression: They seem a little too big. Perhaps two size choices?
Paid version still doesn't show up for me, would like to test!
And: If you need help, maybe I could try to do.

Well if this option is added then the module size will get doubled and will also make us work double.
This is not good from both the user's end to download doubled size app and from Dev side to do same work twice even though copy pasting is a solution but not the best one.
Yet will try to reduce the size a bit.
Paid version will not be there. We will release it for free with ads[User can easily disable ads if he/she wants to thus making it fully ads free version at anytime].
