sorry fixed now
Thanks for your answer.
=> it's OK for the clock.
=> KO for the operator (in black).
Why the buttons "Clear" and "Ongoing" are in English ? my ROM is French.
Thanks in advance

yes but yor rom must be a deodexed one.
How do I install this? metamorph ?
Bihariel, can you try updating european version or say me what are the changes it includes? (services.jar)
Thanks
Hi!
Great Thanks for your Theme, it really looks nice and works fine for me.
Im running 2.34 Rom with deodexed and Jit Files right like the guide of Sorensiim.
I only have a few questions and small issues now...
Is it possible to merge this framework with another one, id take the original european one, so there will be more regions chooseable, especially Germany.
What files do i have to replace in the original 2.34 euro framework-res?
only the drawable folders? color folder?
The 2nd issue i have is the display style of the service provider name....in your screenshot its quite big and bright white, mine is small and grey...as you can see at my attached screenshot.
Everything else works fine, also the white text that shows up e.g. when installing something.
Ill attach the euro framework-res, as you can see its a lot bigger than yours, i think thats the missing region support. Perhaps anyone else also wants to try merging these two.
Update:
My tries to merge the two frameworks didnt really have great success...
I always copied the files from the sense framework into the original framework using winrar.
It always worked, but not everything was as it should be:
on the first try i only replaced the folders up to the last drawable one.....
The result was black text instead of white in the notification bar.
2nd try was to copy and replace everything except the resources.arsc
The Result was white text in the notification but the menu test when pressing the menu softkey on the homescreen now was black on black.
The display of the service provider as shown in the screenshot never changed.
If any1 has another idea, let me know....
Until then, ill live without having the german region and some minimal rests of english interface.
Hi Bihariel, can you tell me if its possible to uninstall this theme?. Or can I make a backup of current theme and then apply yours?

yes, you should backup framework-res.apk and services.jar from the folder framework using root explorer.

nice theme bro
keep the good work
i actually prefer blur to sense. blur still seems like its android where with sense it seems to loose that i think
My network signal is still black and so operator name. If there's a way to fix it?
Language is English, but locale set to russian, if this matters.
I installed it via recovery and got a reboot(???) on 1st boot, but now it works ok... gotta reboor it one more time for a check )) framework-res.apk
On a stock there is 5 sticks, and here is 4, when the signal is maximum, it is black. Would you fixed it?
And it is use many power. in powertutor without - 50m, with 1100m
My fimware is 2.34 official
good job nice looking
Working on Chinese froyo ?
Hi,
I prefer the sense jog things and unicolor notification icons over the default ones, however i really dislike the gradient bar. So i have slighlty modified the op's theme: I've put a few icons from gingerbread and fixed the black signal icon issue. The notification bar has also been changed (provider name is now readable).
To install, please first flash signed_sense_defy_fixed (see first post), then push the attached framework-res.apk to /system/framework using adb.
Edit: it seems like every time i update framework-res, the android market FC on me. To fix this issue, just clear market cache and then uninstall the app update (it will be reinstalled automatically from what i can see).
Hello,
So, this is not really a theme as it cannot be "applied" : main apk`s are modded (framework-res, contacts, mms, phone, settings, systemUI, AccountAndSyncSettings).
!! Warnings !! :
1- Locales availables are EN, PT and FR, the others are deleted.
2- Made with cm7 nightly of august 12 2012, so it's compatible with neutrino 2.9. But if you're running Official cm7 you can have trouble.
3- Make a full backup before tryieng to flash this !
Some screenshots of this flashy carnival like theme : here
Cwm flashable Apk's : here
Option 1: fonts
Option 2 : RedCarrier (carrier name that appears in lockscreen / it's white by default)
OPtion 3 : Bootanimation made from NexusQ video.
Hope some people will like it. :silly: :laugh:
Why not make a metamorph theme? That way you can elliminate at least two of your three warnings, and it will possibly be compatible with other ROMs too.
I know ... but absolutely all the png are modified (some xml too) and it will be a big job to rename all of them. Or not ?
You don't have to rename anything. Basically you just extract all the png/xml from apks/jars, put files from each apk/jar in its own folder, create a xml file describing the theme, and pack it all into a ZIP.
Seems Like a Good Idea.

" create a xml file describing the theme" : i think this one will hurt in terms of time ...
Do you know a good tutorial ? I will have a look if some people like the theme.
thx.
Sorry, I don't know of any tutorials (although some might exist). I normally just take an existing theme and adapt its XML.
It shouldn't be a problem modifying an existing XML, the file is pretty simple and straightforward.
I tried to flash this twice on nuet 2.9 and nothing changed....? Maybe I need the theme engine?

No need of theme engine.
did you install CM7Night12.08.ApkAstrakanSkin.CWM.zip ?
If yes and assuming you are on stock neutrino 2.9 rom ... there is possibly a problem with my install script ... I going to verify.
yup ... it was a bul**** in my script ...
I'm re-uploading ...
Done. You can download and try again.
Sorry !
Thank-you and as I am sure you know you are right I am on neutrino 2.9 ....I will redownload now.
Yes it works and looks great....I needed something vivid as I work outside.

Hello Guys!
I have been working a lot fixing the bugs and the incorrect fonts of the boot animation of the Android BIOS I made.
I apologize for the inconvenience caused.
Many of you loved it though but due to incorrect font it many were disappointed.
Well I have made it a LOT better
Now you can enjoy two bootanimations mixed!
Thanks to @tj_droid for allowing me to port his watchdogs bootanimation into mine.
I have made it a lot better and great for you all
I have made many changes and most importantly fixed the FONT ISSUE!
NOW ENJOY the HD BIOS bootanimation
I have provided 7 screenshots of how the boot animation looks like. Many asked for original one not to be altered so didn't do much change in that but there is much more you can imagine Don't make me kill the suspence Check it out NOW!
Warning Before flashing this zip manually backup your stock bootanimation by going to root directory of your phone via root explorer then go to /system/media and there you will find your current bootanimation.zip file. Just copy it and save it someplace safe in case you want to go back to your stock animation.
I loved your boot animation. How do I install it?
Another great news is that from now on ALL OF MY BOOTANIMATIONS WILL BE FLASHABLE zip's
Just download the bootanimation from the link I provided and then boot into CWM or TWRP locate the file you downloaded and then flash it
Simple no
CHANGELOG V 2.0
Code:
Added new bootanimation screen
Fixed the FONT ERROR
Made the zip Flashable, now no need to do any crappy stuff's like downloading any software to install or locating bootanimation file manually and replacing it. ;)
Now the next thing I want to do is add sound in it But don't have any good sound clips matching this boot animation
If you have any ideas/file to share then please share a mp3 sound file of not more than 30-32 secs
Here is the download link : https://app.box.com/s/fchf9vkeoy4wg7u0q7b5
If you liked it then don't be shy from hitting thanks
EDIT : Please do leave a reply, your opinion it's must..!
Great improvement from the first boot animation! Can really see the change in graphics!

Font fixed? Nope... Still wrong! Everything should be in the font "fixedsys"
The whole idea of the BIOS boot screen you based yourself on is to keep it as original as possible, without all the "bling bling" that you have added.
The original is nice to add a nostalgic touch to your phone. This one just looks amateuristic and non-coherent.
This is how it should look like...
Proper version is attached for those who like the original end 90's - early 2000 look.
You gotta learn dude. I don't copy the bootanimations.
Original 90's is my base if Ii could have wanted I could make this old crap to b in work.
My main aim is to keep the original as BASE and modify it to as better as I can!
Hope you understood.
Creating every frame and designing it takes crap out of you! If you made this original bootanimation then comment here don't just show off on "someone else's" creation

Totally different from the original file. Not only dimension wise but the text aswell.
And atleast mine has the correct font, unlike what you claim to have...
I was trying to help you when posting mine in your previous thread. Even now, I mentioned the name of the font once again.
Very nice bootanimaton my problem is only showing 4.3 OS when i have 4.4.4
Haha sorry I actually run 4.3 so I made it 4.3
Anyways thanks for your suggestion next of this bootanimation would be 4.4
Hit thanks if u liked this bootanimation
Did you make this bootanimation? If yes then you keep the authoritiy to say you own this. I created this bootanimation and I kept my own font which I preferred. If you want to share your bootanimation start a new thread don't do that here

I have a thread on the Galaxy S5 forum concerning custom toggle icons and backgrounds. It came to my attention that these will work for the note II after my doing a little tweaking. Here are a few that I tweaked with the rest being in my original thread. Feel free to check this thread out and if you like something maybe I can change it to work on the Note II.
This will also change your status bar icons.
If you want to keep your stock icons but like one of the backgrounds, the background alone can be sent in a zip as well.
If anyone is stock and rooted and will give me a copy of your systemui I'll make a restore zip.

Best to make a backup first. Also it should make a backup of your systemui under vrtheme-backup on your internal SD.
I believe it will work but there is no guarantee

I did the tweaking already.

These themes toggles work for me on DittoNote 5.2 - thanks
sorry. my bad
Hi, VRilski! Thanks for testing these for me.

No need to wipe anything. Just flash.
You can upload your systemui if you like and I'll take a look at it.

Are you asking or saying that it does? Are you 4.4.2 or 4.4.0? Do you have a custom recovery? If so, make a backup first or at least upload your systemui here so that you can restore it. It would be nice if you would upload your systemui any way so I can make a zip for restoring purposes for people that don't like the results. It should work but if it doesn't do anything I would be happy to look at your systemui to see why.

Hey I tried installing it but it didn't work. Any idea?
What firmware are you on?
Hello guys and galls,
I'm a big fan of dark themes, so here you have it, enjoy them!
Please don't ask for Lollipop updates: I rely heavily on Xposed so I'll take a loooong, sweet time before I'll even consider Lollipop - - - :fingers-crossed: - - :crying:
The included themes have been tested on the Canadian Note 4 (SM-N910W8) but they should be working on all Snapdragon variants.
DISCLAIMER:
As always, it is entirely your responsibility. Make a backup before flashing any theme!!!!
INSTALLATION:
Flash the zip file from recovery (TWRP, CWM or similar). Directly pushing the files to system/priv-app will result in the themed apps not to show, at all. You need to flash the package from recovery!!! If you want to keep your original services.jar file, save it before flashing > flash the desired package > reboot > replace the flashed version with the one you saved > reboot. Done!
PREREQUISITES:
KitKat ONLY!!! (no Lollipop suport)
Rooted,
Deodex ONLY!!! (if you know what you're doing, SecSettings.apk and InCallUI.apk (only) also work with odex files.)
Snapdragon variants (no idea whether they would work on Exynos - feedback appreciated).
The contained Contacts file is specific to the US variants (SecContacts_Note_USA.apk). If you're installing the theme on a non-US variant, you have to either delete or append a .bak to the original file (system/priv-app) before flashing the theme - otherwise you'll end up with 2 Contacts files. Furthermore, you don't necessarily have to rename the included Contacts file to match your original - it works as is, but if you prefer to, anyways go ahead, rename it.
GPE Theme was originally created by Brian (bri315317), however the theme was intended to be used within his ROM so in order to make it work independently I have slightly modified it and created 2 versions. I've posted this with his permission and obviously the due credits go to him.
Features:
- Pure Black background/theme consistent throughout all the apps.
- Own set of white icons
- Modified apps: Contacts, Messaging, Settings, Phone & Dialer.
- 4-way reboot menu.
- CRT screen off effect.
- App Ops
- Screen capture (screenshot) and torch added to the Power menu.
GPE Theme: removed the SystemUI.apk (it was constantly crashing), removed AirMessage.apk (didn't seem to be working outside Brian's Dynamic Kat ROM) and,
GPE Theme_HomeWake: same changes as above + I've modified the file under policy to force the Home button to wake up the phone (it makes sense when the finger scanner is used to unlock the phone). Note: Due to the original smali file enforcing a system-wide "Home-key-no-wake" policy, known file modifications under system/usr/keylayout have no effect whatsoever - hence, the creation of this version.
Material Design_HomeWake: (see the attached screenshots) same idea as GPE Home Wake but this is Brian's light theme. Note that due to the deep integration with his ROM, this theme offers only the same type of customization as the dark one, without taking advantage of any of the material design implementations.
NACO theme (Device Default) it's a combination of Brian's files and my files, it uses Samsung's Device Default theme/style (dark theme).
Features:
- Samsung's Device Default background/theme (dark with blueish headers - see the attached screenshots) - applied only to the affected apps
- Original icons
- Home button DOES wake the device (disabling this through the file IS possible)
- Modified apps: Contacts, Messaging, Settings, Phone & Dialer
- preserves original styles/themes of all the other apps not specifically modified for theming
- CRT screen off effect
- No App Ops - can be installed independently from Play Store
CREDITS:
- bri315317 for GPE Theme and Dynamic Kat ROM
- sefrcoko for his (Canadian) deodexed ROM
Screenshots: the dark theme is NACO Device Default theme, the light theme is Material Design_HomeWake.

I couldn't replicate the issue with the Clock or Samsung Music and since they seem to create some force closes with certain variants while working just fine with others, I've decided to remove them from all the themes - in other words no changes to the original Clock and Samsung Music apk. I've uploaded the new packages and update the OP to reflect the changes.

Hey thanks! I'm gonna give these another try. The only ones I was having problems with that I tried were the Clock and Music apk. When I tried the Contacts.apk I just copied and pasted to system/priv-app but it wouldn't show in my app drawer. Even after wiping cache and dalvik and fixing permissions. I will give it another go. SecSettings.apk. worked great tho.

Flash the whole zip file from recovery and wipe the Dalvik/cache afterwords - all 3 apks related to phone (SecTeleservice, SecContacts and InCallUI) need the services.jar under framework to get properly installed - if you try to just push them, as you did, you'll end up exactly in the situation you've described. Furthermore, I highly recommend installing all 3 apks related to phone - don't just pick Contacts. They are interdependent.

OK, then probably the best next thing for you would be to save your services.jar, flash the zip as is and once the installation completed/rebooted, then put back your services file. Let me know, please!

If you are referring to Brian's Material Light Theme, that's actually quite easy, and yes, by all means if there are requests I can provide the files...but unfortunately, besides getting a nice light theme, very similar to Samsung's original, you won't get much more than that - due to the deep integration with his ROM, the theme won't inherit any material design characteristics/features, just background/font modifications similar to the dark themes.

No, these themes will NOT modify any aspects related to notification bar/ quick settings, etc, etc, etc.
The easiest/most convenient way to customize most of these aspects is by using Wanam's Xposed module.
