I know music player questions arw a bit saturated, but I am looking for a music player that uses the default Android theme (that is, stock Samsung theme on TW phones, Holo in AOSP 4.x and Material on 5.x+). The reason is, I appreciate harmony in design, and when I am using an Holo-themed ROM I get annoyed by the fact that the Material Design is somewhat "enforced".
As far as I've searched I've got nothing close to my need, so I wondered if XDA folks could help me on this.
Thanks in advance :good:

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.
Using YP-G1
Hey there.
I've been using the HTC Amaze for a few weeks and I've had an excellent experience rooting it and flashing custom ROMs. However, Sense UI irks me to no end. I'm currently using Speed Rom 4.0 by EclipzeRemix for the AOSP replacements, and the ICS theme by electronicrice.
This ROM uses the default ICS lockscreen as a replacement lockscreen, which works fine except for one thing - when I use Google Play Music the music controls don't come up. It looks like it wants to do something because the wallpaper vanishes when I listen to music as well.
So here are my questions:
1. How would I go about extracting the CM9 lockscreen and making it flashable onto a deodexed ROM like Speed Rom 4.0?
2. How can I make it possible to add the volume button music control functionality?
Until the kernel source is released for the Amaze and CM9 can be developed properly, I would like my Sense UI to have the most AOSP experience as possible. I am a bit new to ROM/Application development for Android like this, although I've made a few themes in the G1 days and programming is not a new thing for me. I've rooted Android more than I can count too, and can say I'm pretty experienced in that field.
Any answers you can give me would be great, however try not to post something like "Use Widget Locker instead," as I would like to learn how to make a flashable add-on like this.
Thanks!

I'm fairly sure Apollo Player does NOT stream music from Google Play. Also, see my comment above that reads:

Your answer totally wen't WHOOSH right over my questions and did not answer what I asked.
Thanks for the tip, though.
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
Hi! I'm new to the Xda-Developers, and obviously have no talent in coding or developing. So I'm approaching professional developers and themers to help me create a theme for the CM9 music player (Not Apollo, I prefer the CM9 Music ). I somehow managed to change the backgrounds and signed it, but I can't change the font colors of everything. It's a headache because I have no knowledge on coding. So I do really need someone's help in helping me to finish the job. My goal is to make the CM9 Music look like Apollo, basically a white theme for CM9.
As you can see from the attached image the fonts are white in the CM9 Player, I want to change them to black so that it emulates the Apollo Music player, something like in the other picture
Anyone can help this poor soul who can't do simple coding, or offer some guidance in changing the font colors.
I've attached my work. I hope there's some kind soul who can complete it. Thanks!
I'd like to ask GT-P7500 developers if there are any chance to have MagazinUX interface like in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2782580 ?

Not from me. Porting stock samsung apps to aosp roms is not easy. Samsung customizes android with mountains and mountains and even more mountains of additions. For better or for worse is up for debate but I'd argue for worse :cyclops: The name "Lagwiz" doesn't come from nowhere :cyclops:
The samsung apps then reference these additions. Someone would need to find those additions, extract them, and stuff them in the samsung app apk. Basically, the samsung apps apk are not standalone installers. Someone would need to put the effort to add the missing extras to these apks. Now I haven't seen the magazine ux, but if you want a more 4.0 ics launcher without the ugly dock at the bottom try nova launcher or adw.
Samsung has discontinued this tablet after only 1 update from honeycomb to ics. Talk about poor 1st party support. Bulls**t that "there's too little ram" or "the hardware's not capable". KitKat runs smoothly and can actually use live wallpapers. I've never been able to use live wallpaper without severe lag even back in honeycomb.
And lastly, this is a question thread not a development thread.
