Can those on Froyo please report if you're seeing this? I'm seeing mixed responses! Make sure you are using the STOCK Launcher! If you're using another Launcher chances are they used the previous bugged images, that's why.
Note: STOCK Launcher, please. If you're having this bug with another Launcher, feel free to reply but please state which Launcher you're using, and if you can, contact the dev and tell him to fix it . If the dev is interested, prash has fixed those images and they are available here: http://github.com/cyanogen/android_...mmit/afc8145a97ed4a6a1335aa625a4a9b972fb1622a
Hi all,
In Launcher2, the folder images seem to be misaligned. Take a look at the following screenshot (the part between the title and the contents of the folder):
It'd be good if someone could get it fixed! I would but I'm really bad at 9-patch images. MontAlbert has kindly helped me a few times but it's still misaligned, he think it might be due to the code in Launcher2.
Your thoughts/solutions?
This is still an use on Froyo 2.2 as I can see...
ok ill try and this fixed for 2morrow

Not on my 2.2
I fixed this in CM source recently for 2.1, and running froyo now it seems Google has fixed it themselves.

I have it in 2.2
The main problem I see with these folders is not the alignment bug, but simply that they look ugly !
Do you guys think it would be possible to skin them and maybe add a little bit of transparency (or maybe a gradient) in the background ?
What a waste of time! I think this post serves to no purpose. There is no mulfunction here, only a visual misalignment almost invisible. Try to focus on other real problems for example the scrolling of programs on the original launcher. My 2 cents.
rgl12miami: What is your problem? There are people working on code, and people working on graphics as well. prash has put in effort to fix a Google bug, and calling it a waste of time really pisses me off. A bug is a bug, no matter how big or small. If every minor bug was overlooked you'd get a system with many small unimportant bugs?
BlueScreenJunky: Stay on topic? =) There're skinned Launchers, maybe you should check out Themes and Apps section?

I've seen this happen when I edited the background .9 patch file.
Even though the patch file "appeared" to be ok, it rendered exactly like your screenshot.
britoso: Yeah! That's what happened to me back then too. Ok, I just re-tried adding a folder in Launcher2 in CM5.0.7.1, and the bug is still there . prash?
It is fixed on Froyo on both my N1s. It is still, however, a bug in Cyan 5.0.7.1 and it has to be in code somewhere because I couldn't fix the image no matter how hard I tried. I haven't tried pulling in the image from Froyo yet but it probably won't work. It's worth a try, though. And for the record, this is not a "small" bug. It annoys me so much because I use folders a lot and see this bug 500 times a day.
AndroidAppCritic: Thanks for the feedback. I too, believe it is in the code now...
Folder window looks good to me, no problem in froyo. I will do some testing on my side to see if any other luncher changes this. Will report back.

I love the clean blue of this theme, specifically the dialer, however I like the over all feel of it. I have no clue how or where to start to port this if it is even possible.
Any assistance would be appreciated. Needs to work for a Froyo ROM, like KaosFroyo v32.

it should be able to to ported, if you go to the main android forums there is this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737526
Quick answer to can it be ported: yes. Your one major obstacle will be that this theme is for a higher resolution phone like the Droid, where they use .9.PNG files. So, if you wanted to give this a shot, I'd suggest starting with this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737526 , specifically post #69: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7522401&postcount=69 but would recommend giving the thread a quick skim to get the gist of it. Also, if you run that and it doesn't change everything you need, there's a guide on how to make or edit the 9.png files here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580351
This should get you warmed up at least.

Doh! lol Started writing this an hour ago but got busy at work.
Thanks I will look into it.. I felt it might be a bit challenging due to higher res, etc..
Does anyone know if it's possible to use the stock notification bar/drop down on Eugene's Frankin-Twiz? I would assume it's just a matter of grabbing it from one of the earlier roms, but I'm not too sure on the specifics of how to do so.
I assumed it was just a matter of editing the framework-res, but like I said, not too sure which file(s) it would be.
Am I completely wrong in thinking this is possible? Thanks!

Hi,
do you mean just the matte black instead of glossy bar along the top of the screen? Or the pull down menu showing you current notifications? Or Both?
If just the first, its only one or two drawable files in framework-res.apk, if the latter (pull down on its own or with the top bar too) then its files in both framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk, not too hard to figure out really.
My beta vertical battery mod for franken-twiz (found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=758797) includes most of the changes, and I can post a twframework-res.apk to revert the rest, but be warned, I switched to the non-glossy touchwiz drawable files that come with every other Galaxy S phone, stupid samsung/t-mobile decided our phone needed to be "shinier" than the rest of the series =(.
Cheers,
=)
~ Jocelyn
Hey thanks for the response! I actually really like your work!
I guess to make it easier to explain, the only thing I don't like from Frankin-twiz is when you pull the bar down, where it says "T-Mobile" and "No notifications" or "Ongoing" ... the text doesn't exactly fit in the area.
And I do prefer the matte look over the glossy, so that's probably why I like your stuff!
Edit: Disregard the question about pushing via ADB. I see your instructions in the other thread.
Okay I got the bar taken care of and it looks great! Thank you for that.
Now I'm about to do twframework-res.apk so that it matches, but before I do, does it go in /system/framework as well and do you recommend clearing the cache partition and dalvik-cache afterwards?
Well I got it and it looks perfect! Thanks so much for your help and work!
Edit: Ran into an issue. Whenever I try to download/install from the market, I get a Force Close on com.android.vending. Any idea why? I wasn't getting that problem before.

Hi,
Not sure about any FC issues, market works fine for me.
That said, however, usually FC issues from mods like this can be fixed by running a repair permissions in rom mamager, then rebooting into clockwork mod and clearing the cache and dalvik-cache.
And also, I ALWAYS recommend clearing the cache/dalvik-cache after any mod.
Cheers,
=)

I don't understand how this happens to ppl... Happened alot with htc devices but never on my sammy yet...
Edit: Thanks Junk, didn't see your post before my last response. That took care of the problem. I wonder how that happened, either way, thank you!
First let me say that I am not a dev nor can I properly edit .9.png files yet. These are just 'Tweaks' I made to the Stock Samsung MMS by switching png files. A few are quite nice while others,... well, I included them because someone just might like them. Right now these are installable manually which is faster than flashing. I do hope to have them in flashable form soon, however.
The installation instructions are step by step so any noobs can install with no problems. Use the paid version of Root Explorer. First delete or move you current Mms.apk to your external SD card (in case you want to reinstall it later). Then place the new Mms.apk in System/app, longpress on the file and choose 'Permissions', uncheck the boxes to match rw-r--r--. If the new app doesn't show up right away, reboot.
I have no probems sending Sms or Mms and get all my audio notifications although I know this is not the case with everyone. I don't have all the answers, so if you can help with any information on why certain people can't send Sms or Mms, please share it. And if you want to just say 'Thanks' to anyone, please use the 'Thanks' button
Thanks for their work go to Team Whiskey, MikeyMike01, KCB877, TonicAcid, and the devs of BlackFroyo!

went through various themes and roms and patched a bunch together. I didn't edit any pngs as I stated before, I used different bubbles, icons, notification icons etc and put them all into one. I also edited the contact pictures out using ninja morph to get rid of the gradient and blank contact pic so it's black, I don't use contact pictures at all.
Also, if you want a dark icon look at the one I used for Loki 2.0, it's a dark launcher icon, still the smiley launcher like the green and blue, just dark. Grab the blue launcher I have too, it's not the bright one that was floating around, its the normal blue, matches well with the themes or the other blue icons like navi.

Sorry guys, no one has posted in here in forever, so I just poke my nose in every once in a while to check the downloads.

Just to be more exact, the reason a captivate rom would not work with this is because of AT&T. They have some message center that their particular mms app calls. Everything will work fine until you try to send something, then it will FC. I know this because the original mms that I made was the Gingerbread one made by MikeyMike from the Captivate threads. It was a phenomenal app with more funtionality and twice the size (in bytes) as any other mms.apk I'd seen.
Apk's can be really strange. The Galaxy Tab email.apk will work in either 2.2 or 2.2.1. So will the TouchwizGTG launcher from the Tab as well as many other .apk's. Then you come across some that don't work like the OceanWaves live Wallpaper. Just didn't want you to automatically assume .apk's from other Roms would automatically not work. You must test them yourself.

I'm still investigating what works with what. It would be easier if I would flash something else and test it myself, but I'm not willing yet. My health hasn't been that great lately. I can manage to edit simple .9.png's though, so that might goad me into redoing everything.

It looks very goooood. I want it on my Legend!!!!
But i use Blayo´s Rom and dont want to change to cyanogen...
I flashed the Mattedblues theme made for the EVO (I think, found it in this thread) on my HTC Legend last night, and it basically almost works.
It looks amazing, and as far as I'm able to tell, there are no visual problems with the skin itself.
Thing is, if I try to turn off WiFi, I'm thrown back to the boot animation. It then boots up normally, with the WiFi still on.
I don't know if this is caused by settings on my phone, or by the skin being incompatible with the Legend. I tried to flash the version of the theme made for the G2 just now, but the same problem occurred.
Thanks Eirki, I posted your feedback here in case someone can advise:

If someone has an easier way of sharing files, that won't eat my monthly dropbox bandwith, please let me know =)

The 'Thanks' button is near the Quote/MultiQuote/QuickReply buttons on the bottom right of each post. I can see 3 people have thanked you for your above post and file share
You mention: "some notification icons and the font being a little small," ...are you able to notify us:
- which notification icons?
- where is the font small?
This will allow us to report any other wierd behaviour.
1] Is this for 7.0.3 and above only or 7.x ?
2] Do we need S-OFF?
3] Do we need [MOD] full r/w access via overlay filesystem (any ROM) for this to work?
Thanks once again!
Notification icons:
The roaming icon (looks like the regular signal strength icon, only with an R on it) does not appear to be themed. Instead it's the standard green.
Also, for some reason, when wifi is turned off, the signal strength icon is gray not blue.
I don't use 3G or edge, so I don't know how those icons look.
The battery percentages icon is very difficult to read. This is easily bypassed by checking "Battery Percentage" in CM settings -> Interface -> Status bar tweaks. It's a shame though, the special made percentage icon is a lot fancier.
Font size:
This is most noticeable in the Launcher Pro Plus widgets, especially the Friends widget and the Pulse news reader app. It's definitely readable, but still a minor nuisance.
If this is a deal breaker to you, there's always the option of not installing the font or installing a different one. (If anyone knows a font that looks good on the Legend, let me know.)
1: CM-version: I have only tested these specific files on CM7.0.3. I made them by combining the MattedBlues files for 7.0.3 with files from the CM7.0.3 zip file. For all I know, they may work on other versions as well. If not, the MB files for other versions can easily be converted to Legend-compatibility.
2: Mine is S-ON, so I wouldn't think you need S-OFF (I don't really know what S-OFF entails, I'm somewhat of a newbie.)
3: Now, I have no idea what that is. I sure never did that with my phone. Looks like a way to write files to /system without booting into recovery. I just boot into recovery =)
Thanks for the above!
I look forward to trying it out!

Don't worry, this isn't a theme-related issue.
In 'pure Android', when you are online AND have the ability to connect to Google servers, the bars are green. When you don't have access to Google servers, the bars go grey. So the behaviour you see is normal [just replacing blue for green of course].
Question regarding the Apps folder in the *.rar file in post #16 above...
Can we simply delete the APK and ODEX files for the applications we don't want to install with the ROM or is completely the wrong and unstable way of doing it?
First ROM for me. Spent the day half studying for a Calculus final and the other half making this.
Overall I'm very happy with it. Smooth, Stable, and ICS makes it look great.
Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for what happens if something goes wrong. I've tested it a lot and it should be fine.
5/6/12
Removed a lot of Sense and HTC files. Not 100% Senseless yet, but I don't really want to break anything.
Added Apex Launcher.
Added ICS Boot Animation.
Added AOSP Browser, Calculator, E-Mail, Messaging, Calendar
Added working Sprint Voicemail.
5/8/12
ICS Status Bar and ICS Settings.
MMS limit raised and defaulted to 5 MB
Some camera mods.
Added ICS Keyboard. Not default yet though.
Bugs: - I hate bugs. They'll be resolved or mitigated when my finals are over.
Can't seem to find a way to enable 4g on the ICS Notifications...
Lockscreen gets in the way of picking up calls. I consider this a bug. Not a privacy feature.
Music controls don't show up on the AOSP lockscreen. Using LeeDroid's AOSP Lockscreen fixes. Not sure if wallpaper is supposed to show up or not though.
If you find a bug then please PM me or discuss it in the thread.
Todo:
Take some fancy schmancy screenshots,
Theme framework-res.apk, Settings.apk, SystemUI.apk to AOSP ICS. # Half done.
Integrate Leedroid tweaks in a week. # Not really necessary anymore.
Apply some speed tweaks. IMO not totally important b/c there's not much speed gains to be had with much of anything besides cache size boosting or overclocking, but maybe Android has something I've never seen before in an OS.
Not sure of the stability of the file host. Will actively search for a place to mirror.

Install Instructions:
When the leak came out, I flashed Freeza's firmware. IDK what the verdict is on whether or not it's reversible or not, but I personally haven't seen any problems with reception or what not.
With that said:
1. Backup your Data with Titanium Backup or similar. I would also suggest a Nanddroid in case you want to go back.
2. Do whatever wipe style you like. I typically do a Factory Reset and then a System wipe from TWRP.
3. Flash the ics-signed.zip
----- If you want access to 4g or like the Sense status bar or the Sense Settings, do not continue. -----
4. Load the ROM. I haven't been able to avoid the step for whatever reason. Most likely my lack of skill with update-script.
5. Go back into recovery and install the ICS Notifications.
Download ROM

There are some more ICS tweaks to be had here:

Thanks
to JoelZ9614 for the base, letting me eventually use LeeDroid Tweaks
to kushdeck for the Sprint VVM.
to Timmmmmm for some of the AOSP apps.
to AliiYousuf for posting the ICS Notifications here on XDA from VladBelsky's forum.
Damn new roms everyday. Think I'll give it a shot.
One thing, the mms force closing. Does the message still go through or no?

It does not. MMS completely works from the stock app though and you can just disable the notifications from the AOSP one or remove the App with Titanium Backup or not.
I was debating putting it in there, but I figured that I liked how it looked so I might as well.

Ok cool. So I can use the stock for mms and the aosp for SMS if i wanted to go that route.

Totally
If its FC'ing and the Sense one works, then the aosp mms should probably just ve left out... I know I'll be removing it since its not needed. ROM sounds awesome overall, can't wait to give it a spin.

It only FC'es on MMS. I personally never get MMS. People email me their pictures lol and I also dislike the way the stock messaging app looks. That's why it's in there.
Disregard post if previously read...found what i needed.. my bad..
Love seeing new guys jump into the ROM game. Welcome!

Thanks LS, I hope to be pretty productive.
Loaded the rom...everything seemed to work great except for mms...I did try to use both messengers and both failed to work for me....any ideas on what i may have done wrong?
Hmm mms seems to work for me from the stock app.
I'll make an update later and we'll see what happens.

Cool... appreciate it...
Idk if anyone remembers empiires suprarom but after reading the description in the op for some reason it reminded me of that, using a sense base getting as close to aosp as possible with losing that sense functionality. Any chance this'll be laid out in a similar manner?

Yeah, that's the kind of style I'm going for. I'm going to try to get as close to AOSP as possible until CM9 hits.
I'm hoping this has working camera and all also? I've been waiting for a ROM like this.

Yes, working 3d and 2d.
Had to move the ROM to my server and it's not spectacular so if anyone could mirror it it'd be great. Since Megaupload got taken down I haven't found a good file host that allows > 300 MB.
I'm working on pulling this damn update together with what I want it to have which should theme it to almost full ICS. But the zip just isn't agreeing with me.
You thinking a builds later tonight or tomorrow?
