[APP][ENGINE][2.3.6+][Xposed] Resflux - A powerful and very easy to use per-application theming module.
Resflux
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you want to THEME your phone easily, without learning how to do it?
Then you are in the right place!!!
Resflux is very straight-forward. It's very easy to use. You don't need to learn anything just to get started. All you need is your common sense. Once you launch the application, you will see very big buttons with one-word description of what that button will do.
And I forgot to tell you that Resflux supports Gingerbread 2.3.6 and up! yeah you heard it right!
Just use the ported version of xposed installer for gingerbread users...
What else can I do with Resflux?
Tons! All you need is the idea!
- Theming an app or all of your apps.
- Replacing icon and name of your apps.
- Translating app from one language to another
- Overriding default settings inside frameworl-res.apk, settingsprovider.apk and systemui.apk
- and many more posibilities!
Laboratory
The laboratory is where most things will happen. It is where you start theming resources of a specific package. You can theme as many as packages if you want.
After you have selected the target package, Resflux will redirect you to the Experiment area where you can see five buttons namely "Drawable", "String", "Color", "Boolean" and "Integer" though you can only see their icons.
When you click a tab, the list will be populated with the corresponding resources and their current values are even shown so you can tell if it is what you are looking for and trying to replace.
Drawable Tab
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In the Drawable tab, previews of every drawables are shown and by clicking the selected drawable, you can replace it with a new one.
This is replacement drawable chooser dialog
String Tab
In the String tab, you can take a look at the list of all string resources in an apk. The current value is shown in each string resource and you can replace the value with a new one if you want by clicking it.
Color Tab
In the color tab, all the color resources are listed and the preview of each color is also shown. You can replace it with a new color using the HoloColorPicker dialog.
Boolean Tab
In the boolean tab, you can see all the boolean resources of an apk. Boolean is type where its value is only true or false. You can also change it anytime just like the other resources.
Integer Tab
The integer tab is new in Resflux, since the old Resxploit only supported Drawable, String, Color and Boolean.
Export
If you plan to distribute your work or do a back-up or share it to your friend, then you can export it anytime. You can select which packages you want to export and which are not to be included.
From there, you can also completely, remove all modifications made to a specific package by long-pressing the target package.
Import
If you have exported a mod or got it somewhere and you want to upload it into your Resflux, then all you need to do is to put the zip file inside /sdcard/Resflux. By putting it inside /sdcard/Resflux, Resflux will quickly find it, but you can still leave it in other directories as Resflux will also search the other directories inside your sdcard.

Change logs:
Code:
1.6.1
- Replaced AAPT with ResourceFileParser library
(This will fix resflux compatibility issue with Kitkat and Lollipop. Marshmallow is yet to be tested. This change also causes resflux mapping of resources to becoming 2-10x faster than before)
[B]REMOVE:[/B]
[COLOR="Red"]1.7
- support for kitkat and above.
- faster mapping of resources (the mapping of resources will be done in the cloud)
- requires internet connection.
- 3x lesser apk file size.[/COLOR]
1.6
- Disabled xposed installed check on app start.
1.5
- UI updates.
1.4
- fix for colors not working issues.
- fix for double "#" on color resource's values.
- minor ui updates.
1.3
- The scroll position will remain and will not jump to the top when resetting/restoring a resource's value.
- Resflux Compiler link
1.2
- Fixed the resource name bug where an exclammation mark will appear before the modified resource's name.
- Forced the screen orientation of the Experiment area to stay in Portrait mode to avoid crashes when accidentally changed your phone's orientation.
- Added a possible fix for crashes on Import area.
- Increased the minimum width of dialogs to occupy some extra space on phones with bigger screen.
- Added labels to the tab buttons in the Experiment area.
- Updated the modified resource high-lighting feature for better visibility.
- Fast scroll enabled. Useful when you are trying to find a specific resource in the list quickly.
- Hold press a modified resource to restore its original value back.
- Clear cache action. If an installed app has received an update, it is a good practice clear the package's cache in Resflux so all changes to the resources to the updated app will become visible to Resflux.
- Added ability to supply a specific hex value to the color picker dialog as requested by many.
- Drawable picker dialog has been completely removed and replaced with an image chooser intent which will open the Gallery by default.
- When on drawable tab, you can change the drawable image preview's size by pressing the MENU key of your phone. Take note, this will not actually reflect to the final result but only to the previews.
- Other few minor UI changes.
1.1
- resource caching system for faster consecutive access.
- high-lighting of the modified resources to distinguish changes.
- added large heap attribute to the application element inside the android manifest file.
- empty package mods cleaner for the packages directory of Resflux.
1.0
- Initial release
Disclaimer
Though Resflux can modify any application, it is not guaranteed that it is can successfully modify all applications.

Scripting
(For themers and programmers)
Apart from the Laboratory where users are provided with user-friendly interface, there is an another way to make modifications and that is by using the scripting feature of Resflux.
Soon, I will be focusing on adding more features to it. One is providing support for layouts. Not the whole layout, but to the components inside defined with an id.
When you export packages mod in Resflux, you will be given a zip file. And when you look inside it, you will actually find atleast a Resflux.ini file. And when you look inside the Resflux.ini file, you will see how Resflux turn everything into series of keys, sections, comments and how they are arranged.
The structure of the Resflux.ini complies with of an INI file as defined here:
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/INI_file
From the INI File wiki page, you can learn about which one is a key, section or comment.
From it, you may start studying how to write your own.
If you are a programmer, you may find it very easy to understand on how it works. And you can see that you are like dealing with objects. For now, we only have drawable, string, color, boolean, integer, layout, resflux and ini.
Rules
Resflux have rules in when it comes to syntax, grouping and arrangement.
RULE 1: The Resflux.ini can contain only keys, sections, comments and blank lines(with space or not) and should follow their corresponding syntax and must occupy a line therefore two keys in a single line is not honored.
For comments:
Code:
# [any text here]
; [any text here]
For sections:
Code:
[package.name.here]
For keys:
Code:
object.property_name = value
object.property_name : value
For blank lines:
A an empty line or composed of whitespaces.
If an invalid syntax is found, resflux will return error status 0
RULE 2: All resflux.* must be grouped together and must be placed before sections and any other keys except comments.
When this rule is violated, Resflux will return Error Status 1 during an attempt of importing it.
Rule 3: ]: All ini.* must be grouped together and must be placed after resflux.* and before sections and any other keys except comments.
When violated, it returns error status 2.
Rule 4: Before starting defining a key, you must have atleast defined a section. A section is composed of a opening square bracket "[", followed by the package name of the target app, and then a closing square bracket "]".
For example:
Code:
[com.my.app]
Rule 5: Each key must follow their respective value's format.
For drawable:
it could be a PNG image relative path like:
Code:
drawable.ic_launcher = icon.png
# or it could be also a color hex code:
drawable.ic_launcher = #ffff0000
For color:
color can have a single possible format for its value.
Code:
color.bg_color = #ff0000
For boolean:
boolean can only have two choices, the value could be either true or false.
Code:
boolean.enable_nothing = true
boolean.enable_nothing = false
For string:
string can have any value.
Code:
string.app_name = anything you want!!!
# enclosing value with quotes is also fine and work with all types of keys
string.app_name = "!want you anything"
OMG! the first themeing engine for gingerbread! many thanks sir! much appreciated it! :good:

Thnx for the reminder sir...
I've uploaded it to the Xposed Repo.
I'm also planning to make it open sourced, but I still need to fix some things up. XD
Excelent work.

Has anyone been able to use this with Hangouts at all? It seems to never get past the "Mapping Resources" screen...
EDIT: Maybe I'm just not waiting long enough. Is it normal for it to take more than 10 minutes to map resources for some apps?

It really depends... if the /res dir contents of the apk file is really big for example (more than 1k resources) then it should take some considerable time... and it will also depend on ur phone's processing power...
I tested the framework-res.apk with a quad-core phone(not mine) and it took more than 30secs...
and when I tried it with my Samsung Galaxy Y, it took almost a lifetime...

Yeah, I let it go even longer, and it finally finished. I'm on an S4 Mini, which only has a dual-core Snapdragon 400.
Now my other problem is that when I look in the drawables of Dialer or Camera, there doesn't seem to be any launcher icon in the list. (I'm running an AOSP-based rom, FYI)

Ohhhh, right. Now I feel dumb. This is an awesome module, I'm gonna have fun with it!
I'd like to offer a UI suggestion if I may though. Some of the lists are very long, and they scroll very slow on my phone. How about enabling a draggable scroll bar on the lists, so we can jump down to the bottom quickly?

have you check the resflux in the xposed installer?
are you using samsung's default launcher?
coz I think it caches the packages' icon that's why u can't see the changes...

Yes, I have it checked in the Xposed Installer. No, I'm using the Google Now Launcher (running SlimKat). The xSuite module also has trouble changing the Hangouts icon...there must be something different about it than other apps.
Great

Actually, I'm not sure. It's taking me quite a long time to test...I haven't been able to find a launcher icon to try to change in Phone, Dialer, Camera, Gallery, or Chrome. And each time I try a new app, it takes 5 - 10 minutes to map the resources. I'll find a small app to try and let you know...
EDIT: Ok, I just tried changing the icon of Buildprop Editor, and it worked perfectly.

does it have manila file support?
it would be great to be able to open manila files with this..would save a lot of hasle of copying to pc and then back to phone

No Manila file support as of now. This is more of a general purpose, all-device, fast loading text editor. I presume adding very much device/task specific functions will be pointless.
Saying that, I am presently working on a Notepad specifically designed for Diamond. Will think of such features in that project.
question...
Cab it up, possibly? Much thanks!
a BETA release for you

I am attaching a BETA release of the 1.3 version of this software. Kindly test it and check whether it suits your "open-with" needs.
In general, it should work easily with the explorer you are using. In case it does not, try to use the under-mentioned open-with command.
The "open with" command should be: "/Program Path/Notepad.exe" "%1"
Where 'Program Path' is the path of the program and '%1' is the file name. Make sure they are within "double-quotes".
Love it. Works great on my tilt. Thanks.
Very nice and light txt editor!
Any plans to support .DOC and .DOCX? Even just as read only without formatting and ability to save as .TXT.
I have some settings and serials in Word docs that would be good just to copy out of without having to install Pocket Word
It's great to see people working on new editors!
Some things that would really make this program stand out...
The ability to associate files and open with a double click.
The ability to open files via 'Send to' in GSFinder+.
Multiple files opened in tabs with the ability to open new ones (while retaining the old ones, tabbed) with double click or 'Send To' or 'Open With'.
Search and Replace.
Choose Unicode or ANSI formatting for save.
If you implemented these few things, and kept it small, this could be the BEST compact editor for WM (IMHO).
UKNote almost does everything except 'Multiple tabbed docs', and 'Send To' which is the BEST way to open documents for editing in an editor that the MIME type isn't associated with. 'Open With' is just too slow.
The easier it is, and the more options you have to open a file in an editor, the better. Opening a file from my favorite file manager is my preferred method (double click, or 'send to').
Thanks for the Editor!
Can this be used to edit xml files directly on the ppc? Or even create mscr files for mortscript?
Can be used to open any text file

XML / HTML are text based files.
This Notepad can be sed to open and edit such files on PPC.

What features I inferred from your post and also I had been considering earlier:
Associate with .txt files so that any explorer can open it.
Open multiple text files in tabs.
Search and Replace.
Magnify/Zoom (already done in upcoming 1.2 release)
Font Type Change (Normal or Fixed-width, already done in upcoming 1.3 release)
The ability to open files via 'Send to' in GSFinder+.

I think this may already work! Try and let me know please.

I will try to implement these and also keep the weight/load-time/memory usage less.
Yes! 'Send to' DOES work (hurray!). It didn't yesterday, I must've needed a soft reset.
As far as association is concerned, we should be able to associate any file, not just TXT. Let the User worry about associations, but just fix it so that if a filetype IS associated, it opens with a double click. Right now when I associate a filetype, and try to open it with a double click, I get an Error:
'The specified file cannot be opened. Path or format incorrect.'
I click 'OK' then the editor opens with no file.
Thanks Again!

You might want consider the ability to save as ANSI or UNICODE because many of the text files used by WM are UNICODE.
I work with lots of text files at once sometimes, so it would be nice to be able to load multiple copies of the EXE at once (or to use a tabbed interface).

Yes. I know why the error is there. This is not an error. You are providing the filename as command-line parameter. But your file name contains spaces, hence it should be enclosed within quotes.
E.g. /Internal Storage/my file.txt should be opened as Notepad.exe "/Internal Storage/my file.txt" and see it will work!
I can do a workaround fix, but that would make it non-standard. I will tell you why...
All command-line parameters are separated by spaces.
e.g. Notepad.exe param1 param2
Now, all programs use the first parameter as file name. But, when your filename contains spaces, it is split into two or more parameters. And that causes the error. Hence, to open your file, your parameter should appear within double quotes.
So, for opening a file, say, /My File.txt, your command will be.
"/Notepad.exe" "/My File.txt" (assuming that both files are in root folder)
PS: Please don't mind if I went in so much details. But I explained for people who would not know anything.
However, If you suggest that I should "merge" multiple parameters and check whether it is a valid filename or not, then I can do it. But as I said, that would be non-standard. I have attached a file with this change done.
Awesome! I love it! Now I can open a file using any method I desire. This is HUGE!
I don't think your 'nonstandard' workaround will be a problem because, after all, what parameter would you send to an editor other than a single filename?
Is there a filesize limitation? I opened a 92k file and was only able to scroll down about 1/3 of the document before it wouldn't scroll anymore. The ability to edit large files would be another feature I would request.
Another thing you might consider is coming up with an original name for your editor. It is shaping up to be such a good editor that it deserves something other than the generic 'notepad'.
Thanks for your hard work, it is very appreciated by us editor lovers out here in WM land. I am anxiously awaiting updates!

Guess what drives the world of software??? It is people as good as you. I am not flattering, but its rather a huge fact that the trouble you took to use and comment on the software more than motivates me (or anyone else for that matter) to develop even better softwares.
Rather I should say "Thank You" for your time and effort to appreciate someone.
Back to work:
Yes, there is a kind of file-size limitation. But I am yet to find out the exact value. It tends too vary between devices .
Nevertheless, it is a limitation/bug of DOTNET CF 2.0 . DOTNET CF 3.5 too has this problem (of displaying 1/3rd of the available text space,) but at a reduced level. [Doing any workaround these bugs/limitations might increase file size / memory consumption / load time.]
Next on line: I am thinking about implementing (1) Find and Replace, (2) Tabbed Documents, (3) Remember last used program settings.
After these are done, the Notepad will become somewhat finalized and would have almost all features that can be pushed inside a small and fast-loading app.
Last and the Best... I want to make it "skinnable", so that I can make it look like Diamond, etc (or any user can make their skins.)
... however... my PRIMARY GOAL still remains : FAST, BUG-FREE, SMALL/LIGHT, ALL-PURPOSE Text editor!
The filesize limitation really isn't that big of a deal. Most compact editors on WM have some sort of filesize limitation. I do most of my editing of big files on my PC.

Im currently working on a flash application that displays the Manila 3D weather animations.
The first idea was to have that on M2D, but it prooved impossible: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471461
To use this EXE you'll need Flash 7 (lite 3 FINAL will work too, but you'll need to install flash 7 first) and a internet connection (PC sync or GPRS/3G).
The download is quite large (17mb) because of the animations, so I wasnt able to post it here, you have the download from the link below.
In future updates you'll only need to update the main EXE or the data files, so they will be less than 1mb and so, posted here.
I'd like to thank Rumball for giving me permission to use his animations and The_hesham for pushing this idea.
I still need to find a tool to force the internet connection, if there isnt one active already, and obviously add this as a option on the settings.
One thing that always made me some confusion in M2D, and I think it would be nice to implement, if you last updated the weather the day before or two days ago, it should show the actual current day result and simply remove the last days that doesnt know the variables of.
Mini-FAQ:
-----------
Got a wider screen and two white stripes appear?
Unfortunatly the tool I use to make the EXE files only allows qvga and vga screen sizes... If you know another SWF>EXE tool that fixes this, let me know.
Got different slightly results in M2D and this app?
The m2d conversion from Farenheight to celsius is slightly incorrect... Only the farenheight measure is recorded on the registry, so if you choose celsius, m2d makes this conversion: (farenheight - 32) / 1.8 = celsius
But if the result is, for example, between 12.1 or 12.9 the value shown is always 12º. My conversion rounds up anything above 0.5 to +1.0. I think thats the way it should be. And thats why you get different results in M2D and this app.
The animation is really slow...
Its basicly 20-40 PNG files inside each flash swf file, thats why its so heavy (16mb), if it was all vectorial, like the TEMPUS plugin, it would only be less than 1mb, the png sequence is also slow on the display, depends on you free RAM and video driver.
It was made for 400mhz or better machines, flash is still slow in the current CPUs, maybe in the future... :/
Its not really working for me.
Check all items in the TO USE list. The first non-official release of Flash lite 3 is buggy and wont work! The final will.
Can I translate it in my language?
Sure, the DATA.TXT is already (mostly) translated in Portuguese, Romanian and Italian here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471461
You have some more instruction on the end of this post.
Can I make other icon animations or wallpapers?
Sure, create a theme, its a background wallpaper and animated icons. The instructions are in the end of this post.
Can I use this as a today plugin?
Not yet, when its finished I'll release the sourcode and (with the help of APBilbo) make a THROTTLE LAUNCHER version.
Got a error on the results...
The update sometimes fails, just reload/re-update or cancel/re-open things, sorry about that...
I cant see the icons...
Roms in other languages have different names for the SD card and Program files. Check if the path on the settings is the same as yours. Change it accordingly.
I cant see any words...
This is a reaaaaally smart bug from me... I didnt antecipated that ppl with the above problem couldnt read the text to change the text varibles path. :/
You can either press the bottom-right grey button and then the one that appears directly on top of that one... that opens the settings area. Now change the path on the top text area and press the OK button.
Or.. thru the registry, with Resco explorer or any other registry tool here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\W3D\Settings\PATH
I cant see anything!
Either your Pocket pc is on stand-by, in that case simply press the power button. Or your eyes are closed, in wich case you cant really read my advice to open them...
My City is not on the list.
- Go to: http://www.accuweather.com/includes/ajax-functions/favoriteCities.asp?region=EUR&country=UK
Change the end of the link to your country, PT=Portugal, UK=United Kingdom, ES=Spain, etc...
- ...OR, just click in http://www.accuweather.com/world-index.asp?partner=accuweather&traveler=0 , then write down you "city, country", press GO and it shows your code in the middle of the ADDRESS BAR link.
- Now send me the code (post here or send me by email).
- Add it manually to your cities with the help of the mighty flash keyboard.
Whats new:
-------------
- Fixed the non-WWE bug to see the settings button.
- Added "last updated on" info.
- Added (semi-)Smart* day Weather (tells what day TODAY is)
- Fixed minor coding bugs
- Added some more cities to the online database.
Replace the attached file on the first post to update.
To use:
--------
- Install Flash 7 (if you dont have it already): http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer_pocketpc/downloads/player.html
- Download the 17mb zip below.
- Extract and place all the files inside on your /Storage Card/Program Files/W3D and create a shortcut for the EXE (with resco explorer or something). This path can be changed in the settings menu.
- Update the latest files attached here.
- If the 6th image on this post appears on you, its the online update that went wrong, just press UPDATE NOW (make sure you have an existing internet connection already running).
To do:
--------
- Create a update error loop, if the online values arent correctly received.
- Create internet connection + new setting to disable this.
- Convert fscommands to trottle launcher version and release the source-code.
Creating Themes:
--------------------
- Icons must be individual swf files, exported as flash 7, must have the same name as the ones on the "current_theme" folder, 240x200 px size and (this is important) have in the last frame the LABEL parado with the CODE stop();. The icon theme's name is the name of the folder. I added a animation example attached to this post.
- Wallpapers are jpg's in 240x295 px saved in standart enconding, progressive enconding will not appear on flash, this is a old flash bug. They must be on the same folder as the icons.
If you have a VGA or any other sized screen, you can change the JPG size to whatever fits you best.
- The language file data.txt can be renamed to data_sp.txt (as spanish, for example) or any other name you'd like, just remenber to change it on the settings too. I added the Portuguese language as an example also.
Note that the first variable doesnt have the & character and that they all finish with &END, this is normal.
If you have a special character that doesnt appear, tell me what it is, so that I can embebbed it into the app.

Hi, twolf !
Move to this topic then.
Thanks for Great job !!
One question, how can I get it works on WQVGA (omnia)? (It actually works, but not full screen. It has white background at the top and bottom of the screen)
Thanks.
Unfortunately the tool I use to make the EXE files only allow qvga and vga screen sizes...

There's currently no "Choose city" interface like in M2D, so you will need yo know your city code, see it here:
- Go to: http://www.accuweather.com/includes/...EUR&country=UK
- Change the end of the link to your country (US users only need a 5-digit area code), PT=Portugal etc...
...I'll try to find a way to get that info from the m2d cities xml, but no promisses.
I still need to find a tool to force the internet connection, if there isnt one active already, and obviously add this as a option on the settings.

If the 6th image on this post appears on you, its the update that went wrong, just press UPDATE NOW.
To do:
--------
- City chooser (no need for the keyboard).
- I couldnt find the settings for the "high temperature" and "low temperature" for the current day. But I think its really not needed.
- The "last updated on" text doesnt make the timed account, it just tells at what time was updated. Not sure if I'll leave this as it is, since it will be -a lot- of work for a little detail
- Smart today weather (shows the correct daily weather, no matter how long on the week you last updated).
- Fix the icon package (the renamed 8 files).
- Create internet connection + new setting to disable this.
- Create a update error loop, if the online values arent correcly received.

Sorry, I had some problems with my phone and now the usb port is dead...
I'll send you the new exe in a couple of hours.
This project is on hold at the moment, as my Nike just died.
I cant test whatever I change, so if anyone wants the FLA source-code, Ill post it on the first post.
Sorry...
Hi,
very nice app !!!! but it doesn't work for my htc cruise/polaris. In attach the screens with the log:
1. it diplays in all fields: "undefined"
2. the right/left keys aren't displaied.
I've done:
1. install flash 7 for ppc
2.unzip the app.
3. create the dir W3D in 'SD/program files/...'
4. copy in 'SD/program files/W3D' the unzipped files
5. create a ".lnk" in windows/start menu/programs to the exe of the app
6. active an internet connection
7. lunch the app
8. try to connect to internet but without success !!!
9. the result is in attach.
thx for the help.....
This appears to be a simple path error, see what is the name of your storage card on the file explorer, that should be it.
Notice that the time variables are there, but he cant find the icons or text data file.
Yes...i've changed the name, in the path, of my sd...(as you can see in the picture) but there is always the problem......

Olá twolf.
Esta app que desenvolveste apenas se destina a HTCs ou pode ser usada noutros PDAs?
Hi twolf.
This app you've developed is for HTCs only, or it can be used on other PDAs?

I did saw it, but I dont know if its well written...
There could be missing a character or have a special character with an accent like á ò ú...
Or "program files" could be "programmes" or something like that.
Could you send a printscreen of the full path in the file explorer app?
Or try to place the datafile in the root's memory so it would just be like: \data.txt
and them make the full path on the settings be just \
This way the icons still wont appear, but the names will.
And you could see that it must be a path error somehow.

Any Windows Mobile pds with Flash 7 and internet access, havent tested it on WM2003...
Great,does it supports Chinese Language now?
Hmmm... Not yet, sorry.
Its just a matter of adding a chinese font swap to the text areas.
I'll have to do that last, since the export will be muuuuuch slower after.
But at the moment all my projects are stopped, as explained on my sig.
Hi again twolf.
I've installed the app but i'm not seing any icons, wallpaper,and text in the butttons...
I can add cities and see the temps.
No data.txt is generated.
PS: Sorry... Theres a data.txt in W3D_SE folder...
It's Storage Card\Program Files\W3D\W3D_SE
Its not generated automaticly, you have to copy the files manually to the folder you created.
By default it should be in Storage card\Program files\W3D but you can put them wherever you want, just edit that in the settings area.
You can place the EXE there too, but thats not mandatory.
---edit---
I see now that my directions were misleading, I changed that from the first post, sorry.
It's working!
Thanks... The problem was that i was extracting the W3D_SE folder in W3D when i should extract only the content.
By the way, it's great!
I uploaded a new zip, with clearer instructions.
This is the print screen....thx for your help...

Yes, your path is correct.
JonasSavimbi made me notice something I mislead ppl with the older zip, your W3D folder should have the data.txt, wall.jpg and icons folder inside. Not another W3d_SE folder.
Sorry about that.
This would be my second public-released xposed module...
(A duplicate thread is also posted in the Android Themes Section, so user who are only interested in themes can also see this)
I did not expect that my WisdomSky Xploit would be a big hit.
I'm just an Amateur developer who just started delving into android development 3months ago and I didn't expect that much appreciation from my work... XD
But all of these would not be made possible if not because of sir @rovo89 and sir @Tungstwenty and their Xposed Framework, right? That's why I thank them a lot...
REQUIREMENTS
Xposed framework must be pre-installed before installing this.
What does the ResXploit do?
ResXploit has two parts:
the Removable part, terminal
and the main star, engine
The terminal is where you enter the commands(I'll discuss it later). These commands will then be interpreted by the engine and then passed to Xposed framework...
Flow:
TERMINAL >> ENGINE >> XPOSED FRAMEWORK
I have provided a variety of modules:
ResXploit (Terminal + Engine) (RECOMMENDED FOR NEWBIES)
ResXploit Terminal (Terminal Only)(DEPRECATED)
ResXploit Engine (Engine Only)
You might be wondering why I made one which has both terminal and engine... and other two which are separated...
ROM Chefs, Themers and some others would understand directly why...
All the commands are interpreted by the Engine right? so that would mean that once you have entered all the desired commands, the terminal will now end up as useless... so you will just delete so no one can touch the engine...
If you are a ROM Chef or a themer, you can theme all the apps you need to theme using ResXploit and then remove the terminal, so end-user interaction of the engine is prevented after you have released your ROMs to the world.
FOR NEWBIES!
I recommend you to use the ResXploit (Terminal + Engine)...
It is very smart..
I included 99% accurate error-checking system,
line numbering system,
and also Xposed module prioritization(which is first implemented on ResXploit for better module performance).
COMMANDS
We have four basic commands in the ResXploit, the apk, drawable, string, and boolean.
apk - A prerequisite command. This command is very vital whenever you using the ResXploit. This will define the target application by using the package name of the target application. You need to include this before you enter any command or else your command will not know which application is targeted and end up in lost island.
Code:
[B]format[/B]: [I]apk <package name>[/I]
[B]example[/B]: apk com.android.systemui
drawable(also drw) - The most often used command. The command which will change icons/images (png drawables) of an application. You can either overlay the existing image with your favorite color or completely replaced it with a .png image from your sdcard.
Code:
[B]format1[/B]: [I]drawable <target application's drawable name> <image path, no need to include /sdcard> <transparency, 0 to 255>[/I]
[B]example1[/B]: drawable status_bar_background bg.png 255
[B]format2[/B]: [I]drawable <target application's drawable name> <HEX RGB color code> <transparency, 0 to 255>[/I]
[B]example2[/B]: drawable status_bar_background #fff00ff 255
string(also str) - This command will change string(text) values of the application. The predefined string values are usually located in res/values/strings.xml of an application, but I guess they are not visible when you view the contents of an application using Archive managers like RootExplorer. But there is a way to identify them. I will include it later.
Code:
[B]format[/B]: [I]string <target application's string value holder name> <replacement string>[/I]
[B]example[/B]: string app_name My App
boolean(also bln) - This command will change boolean values of the application. The predefined boolean values are usually located in res/values/bools.xml of an application, but I guess they are not visible when you view the contents of an application using Archive managers like RootExplorer as well.
Code:
[B]format[/B]: [I]boolean <target application's boolean value holder name> <replacement boolean value, either [B]true[/B] or [B]false[/B] only>[/I]
[B]example[/B]: boolean allowNumberNotifications true

UPDATES & CHANGELOGS:
ResXploit Engine 1.0.8 - added support to framework-res(android).(latest)
ResXploit 1.0.8 - updated engine(1.0.8).(latest)
NOTICE: ResXploit is now an abandonware.
My flash drive where I stored the sources of my android projects was corrupted unexpectedly.
And also, my phone was broken. I have no device to use to re-write everything from scratch... Sorry...
Tutorial and samples
System Apps Package Names:
SystemUI - com.android.systemui
Settings - com.android.settings
Mms - com.android.mms
Contacts - com.android.contacts
Launcher - com.android.launcher
Gallery - com.android.gallery3d
File Explorer - com.android.qrdfileexplorer
Framework-res - android
Tip: If you want to find the package name of a specific application(not on the list), you can open Root Explorer(download it from googleplay) and then browse the apk you want to check, open it and choose "view". You can find AndroidMaifest.xml file inside. Open it then find the package="xxxxxxxxxxx". The words or group of words inside the quotations separated by a period is the package name of that application.
Note: ResXploit is far safer(in terms of error awareness) to use than the ResXploit terminal. If possible, only use ResXploit. In the simple tutorials below, please expect that I'm referring to ResXploit only.
Changing Statusbar background color
let's say color red...
Code:
#!/
apk com.android.systemui
drawable status_bar_background #ff0000 255
Changing Notifications Panel background color into transparent
Code:
#!/
apk com.android.systemui
drawable notification_panel_bg #000000 0
Changing Notifications Panel background with an image from sdcard
let's say that the png image is located in /sdcard/my_img.png
Code:
#!/
apk com.android.systemui
drawable notification_panel_bg my_img.png 255
You might be wondering where i'd get the target application's drawable filename?
Actually, you can just open the root explorer and view the files inside the apk of the target application. under the /res directory(folder), you can find a variety of subdirectories prefixed with [drawable, like drawable-hdpi,drawable-mdpi and so on... Basically, all images inside those folders are under the scope of drawable command in Resxploit. And if you want to target a certain image in the drawable folders, you just need to get the file name without the .png or .9.png. That's it!
Adding "comments"...
Comments in programming are human-readable additional information. If you want to put notes somewhere in your script, you can put "#" before your statement. When the terminal find a "#" before a statement, the terminal will ignore it and skip it. However if you will enter a non-command information and is not started withcl a "#", the terminal will ofcourse read it as command and then throws an error message.
Code:
#!/
# my comment. my comment. my comment
apk com.android.systemui
drawable status_bar_background #ff0000 255
# the terminal will skip the command below
# because it started with a "#"
#drawable oh_no #ff00ff 255
Defining working directory path of your images
If you want to start theming and you already have the images you want to use stored inside a single folder, then you can tell the terminal where these images are located so you don't need to enter the path redundantly.
You can define it on the very first line of ResXploit, after the "#!/" you can add the folder name or path to the folder.
let's say we have our images put in a folder in sdcard named my_images or /sdcard/my_images, then you can define it like this.
Code:
#!/my_images
#we can start theming now
drawable hello some_image.png 255
drawable world next_image.png 255
great work dude...noypi are very smart of course,,
Very interesting. I've been interested in theming for a while now but haven't gotten my feet wet. I'll be waiting for your tutorials. Great work mate!

So ... a scriptable general purpose module. This is a phenomenal idea. OK still requires digging into the apk but a whole lot easier than building a new module from scratch.
Mission: Get rid of Armv7 calls the FC apps on my old clunker (also need help buying a new phone--if I had it, would have reserved the edge already!). Google Now first tries to init the "off line" voice recognition engine. Minimum, want to simply disable this call. I use overlays to prevent other such calls. Maximal, to replace with the old "on line" voice recognition engine.
Capability in this yet?
Among the booleans?
what say you

i don'think so... because ResXploit's scope is only the res or resource directory of the apk structure...
if a boolean value is defined in the res/values/bools.xml that will actually toggle controls then it would be great... but i think, in your case it is deeply hard-coded to work like that...
Framework.res?
Can you theme the framework.res using this?
package name is only 'android' no com. or anything..
EDIT: Tried and it seems to go through ok, but nothing seems to change. Rebooted several times, changed an image in my keyboard, checked it was ticked in Xposed framework, setup a folder in my internal storage, checked superuser granted access, pressed high priority in settings. Don't know
Here's a debug log (uploading tomorrow, pc occupied)
Will this work for non system apps? The unlock button on the PowerAmp lock screen drives me insane because it's the only thing I can't change and I absolutely hate green.

Interesting, sounds like a concept similar to Ninjamorph.
A couple of quick questions:
Is this able to apply folders or just single png's?
Also do you need extract png's from apks in order to apply or does it extract and apply automatically?
:good:

Unlike ninja morph, in resxploit, there is no permanent replacing of resources happened... which means you can deactivate, share, edit easily anytime....
Q: Is this able to apply folders or just single png's?
A: only single pngs... 1 drawable command = 1 png... but there is no limitation on how how many commands you can add
Q: Also do you need extract png's from apks in order to apply or does it extract and apply automatically?
A: As what I've added on the title, "No decompiling APKs"... it means, no decompiling or extracting is involved in the process as what Xposed Framework aimed. You just need to put the image to replace inside your sdcard and just add a command to tell the engine "to replace that with this"... there is no permanent replacing of resources happened here... the image is just move into the /data partition and will be just overlapped to the target resource so there will be an impression of replacing of resources
I didnt mean does it decompile/extract full apks. I meant can you pull an resource/image out of the apk to apply.
I know it overlays instead of permanently overwriting the original resource, similar to Icon themer and XTheme engine.
Ninjamorph/ Metamorph unzips apks into folders so you can navigate through them and choose what you want to apply.
Example:
Choose target resource/image to change.
Choose apk to pull resource/image from.
Navigate and choose resource/image (extract if applicable) to apply.
This would be good if it also done the same. Although you could just unzip with an on board app like Zarchiver.
Basically it would make it a new and improved Ninjamorph/ Metamorph (dont tell Stericson i said that)
No offense, but looking at it from newbies point of view, it seems like a bit of a drawn out process if you were wanting to change numerous items.
I know it's early days and I'm sure this would be greatly improved with a GUI, if you decide to add one.
Personally speaking, i think this has massive potential and could be something very special. I applaud you, i wish i had your talent.#
Thanks.
I tried clicking on the changelog link, it gave an error "Invalid Attachment specified. This can happen for a variety of reasons-- most likely because the thread or post you are trying to view has been moved or deleted. Please return to the forum home and browse for another similiar post."
Not sure if its the file attached to the post that is the updated one or if the actual update got deleted. Please help me here

I'm still a newbie in terms of androld... there's so much to learn first before I can fully implement whats on my mind...

Installation instructions
NEW INSTALL PROCEDURE (simplified):
wipe data / factory reset.
flash 5.8.zip
that is the only file you need.
when you flash it , you will see options for part 1 and 2.
install part 1.
reboot to system.
flash 5.8.zip
install part 2.
choose options,
fix permissions, reboot.
the new installer will walk you through the install easily and quickly.
MY INSTALL PROCEDURE:
Figured I'd write these down so that there was no confusion. These are the steps I take to ensure a proper install.
There may be other methods that work just fine, however, this works every time for me and is most compatible.
If you have any problems.. before you get angry, you may want to try this way first.
While doing this, it's safe to ignore all references to "unable to mount '/usbstorage.'" This is just recovery looking for a usb otg device.
Nothing to worry about here. Just pretend it doesn't exist. It's looking for a usb stick or hd.
1. >Copy minin3.mj4.R4x.zip to your memory card. (internal or external - I use the external card for backups and rom installs,
and have never run into an issue though my card is only 16gb. If you have any issues here try from the internal card and remove the external.
In my case external_sd/roms/minin3/minin3.mj4.R4ultimate.zip)
2. >Boot phone to recovery. (from power off - volume up+home+power)
I use TWRP recovery Version - 2.6.3.7. However, if you run into issues you may try going back to version - 2.6.3.2
3. >press "wipe"
>press "advanced wipe"
>check "Dalvik Cache" , "System" , "Data" , "cache"
(you may be able to get away with not wiping data, but once again, I highly recommend it)
>swipe to Wipe
>look for "wipe complete successful" at the top of the screen
(once agian ignore all references to "unable to mount '/usbstorage')
>press "back"
>press the little house icon in the bottom left (sort of anyway)
>press "reboot"
>press "recovery"
>swipe to reboot
>press "do not install"
(phone will then reboot back to recovery)
4. >press "install"
>navigate to your rom file
(in my case, I pressed on the grey bar that says "storage: internal storage" and selected "micro sdcard" (the external sd)
I then selected the folder "minin3" from the bottom box, then the file "minin3.mj4.R4ultimate.zip")
>swipe to confirm flash
(ignore "unable to mount /usbstorage")
>wait aprox 1-3 minutes while it does its thing.. you should then see "successful" and some buttons
>press "reboot system"
5. >Initial phone setup is optional. In my case, I just skip it all and log in after. Works both ways.
(either way, get through the setup wizard until you are on the desktop)
>boot back into recovery (either power off, or reboot and hold vol+ and home)
6. >press "install"
>navigate back to the rom file (for me once again minin3/minin3.mj4.R4ultimate.zip)
>swipe to confirm flash (give it a minute to do its thing)
>press the little home button again in the bottom left
7. >press "advanced"
>press "fix permissions"
>swipe to confirm (this should be very quick)
>press "reboot system"
8. phone should boot to dashboard
9. >now would be a good time to also open both viper4android apps and let them install the drivers
>choose whatever setting you like for viper4android and choose cortex neon for xhifi.
At this point you should be ready to go with all the major stuff ready and known bugs squashed.
11. >reboot
12. >enjoy MiniN3 v5.4
(If dirty flashing (not wiping before hand - epecially data) you still may want to boot and flash a second time, and then fix permissions in case I missed anything.. it won't hurt either way)
UPDATE INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS>
FULLY INSTALL PREVIOUS VERSION (in this case 5.4)
then reboot to recovery, flash the update, and before rebooting go to advanced>fix permissions.
then reboot.

CONTRIBUTORS TAKE NOTICE.
Apparently issue was taken with how we were running the thread.
In an attempt to keep us in the rules the following changes were made.
Even though all users were getting updates as I thought they were stable. We are not allowed to have anything that looks like your paying to get extra features.
Some issues were also taken with the donation wording.
Until we decide a final solution. This is what will happen for the immediate future.....
ALL CONTRIBUTORS have been moved to the "test group"
For you guys nothing really changes.
The folder your using stays the same though the label will change from contributor folder to test folder.
New additions to the test group will be at my discretion only. Anyone may contact me by PM or email and ask for a slot. I can accept or deny them at will.
From time to time I will invite users from the thread who have shown a commitment to the rom.
I will also invite those who contribute something useful to the rom. (If they have work in it they should have access at all points)
The test group will then continue the same job as the contributor group was doing previously. Really for this part it's just a name change. As things are deemed stable (by me again no one else gets a say here) they will be released to everyone.
I'm not sure how else this will effect the future of this rom on xda. Though I will be maintaining development for my own use anyway.
So for the moment. As far as you guys are concerned. No real changes.
If anyone would like details you may contact me privately.
I will only discuss this here in general terms just so there is no possible future issue.
MINIGALAXY CLEANER

lol thanks !
i was just thinking how there's probably another 100mb to be had once i get some more time to root around and comment some stuff out.
it may be a bit extreme. but it has all functions i need for my daily uses. and all the main stuff still works.
Great Thanks
Looks good, by bloatware do you mean all Samsung apps are removed as well? Did you keep the Sammy keyboard? Love that thing lol.

thats what i like to hear. version two coming in the next day or so. mostly done.another 80 mb removed but added some functionality back.
re added gallery mostly just so it was possible to change lockscreen wallpaper. cleaned up some bugs added some smaller stuff back. still looking like right around 550mb with some of the functions returned.i am going to keep the stock installed apps very light but want it to come out of the box with everything needed to use.anything else can just be grabbed from the market. just finishing up what to add back.and finding a place to host it and get it uploaded with my slow poke internet,

Hi everyone
I have builded a app HK Theme Manager that sopport CM Theme, XThemeEngine and my Theme (HK Theme) for change style system
As XThemeEngine, It is powered by Xposed Framework by rovo89, Thanks for the great rovo89 Xposed. Please donate for he
But HK Theme manager can read and use direct CM Theme, Xtheme ,... without mod. All Theme use method xml/redirections.xml, HK Theme Manager will support
System equipped
- Android 4.0 +
- System have rooted
- System have installed Xposed framework and active module HK Theme Manager
OK. How to use
1.Install Xposed Installer
2.Install HK Theme Manager from the link at the bottom of this post
3. Open Xposed Installer app and install xposed framework
4.Activate the module HK Theme Manager in Xposed Installer app
5. Now install your Theme
6. Open HK Theme Manager and it will auto search all apps theme for show list
7, Choose a theeme and choose Set Theme, If install successfull, you restart system for change updated.
8., For uninstall Theme, click No set this theme, use default UI and reboot.
So now you can use all guide creat CM Theme or Xtheme, tmobile,...and make your theme, use HK Theme manager for run,
HK Theme manager can support replace resource with Current Limitations of Xposed framework. It is not recommended to replace layout, but you still can use layout replace, If it makes your phone bootloop, you can use file sdcard/HKThemeManager-Restore bootloop.zip (auto create when you click set theme) update from recovery to uninstall theme and your phone could boot normal.

Change in v6.4
-fix Make and fix Theme
- add icon for HK MOD Theme
note: Uninstall apktool, hk theme manager old version. then install HK Theme Manager v6.4
Change in v6.3
- Someone when using the new method instead of V6.2 theme, it do not work, but it work on v6.1, so in this version I've added the old method for mode 1 theme like v6.1, of course it was much more optimal, but it is recommended to use multi-mode is the default theme for a more optimal, multi-mode default theme is still the method used on version v6.2,
- different for each theme. when you checked the items, and then set the theme, it will save the state mark of theme packs and reload this status for next time is to use a theme that, with the new theme it defaults to checked all
- Add 1 functions to make and fix themes . If CM theme not displayed in the list, please enable mode displays all applications and choose it from list , then click Make and fix theme , in this mode I 've added some structure 1 automatic correction for the theme , such as edit file name is not capitalized , it will automatically switch to often .
There are 2 modes to make and fix in the theme options :
- Default is automatically all process make and fix theme :
All process:
1. Copy theme to sdcard/hkthememanager folder and Decompile it
2. Modify with: Replace res folder from Theme choosed decompiled to Sample folder decompiled in sdcard/hkthememanager. Try auto fix some error, make new Androidmanifest.xml and redirections.xml
3. Recompile Sample folder that have modded
4. Sign app that have recompiled
5. Ask for Uninstall and reinstall"
if there are any errors in the above process or completed , it will notify or vibrate , or ring (with the option of the application ) . Whether to show the error report for you to read it .
- The development mode . You can execute the step -by-step process on , This is useful when the theme at fault and should intervene to fix it before doing the next step . (folder for work: sdcard/hkthememanager)
- The options applications that have added:
+ Optional multi- mode or single- theme theme as mentioned above
+ Option automatic mode or step by step in make and fix themes
+ Options screen always on (wake lock) when make and fix a theme , it is good if the theme is the process of making , sleeping system , and the process stops
+ Options notified by vibration , message , tone for error report or when completed reports
Speed theme of creating and editing process can take up to 3-15 minutes depending on :
- Speed Phone
- Size theme
===============
To use this function, we need to use apktool on android:
<b>Download at:<b>
https://apktool.googlecode.com/files/apktool4.4_armhf.zip
download it and extract it to sdcard, so that the path is:
sdcard / apktool / jvm.tar
please credit to [email protected]
I have used this project to create option make and fix theme , of course I have improved it:
By default, it creates frameworks (apktool if) with 1 framework poor and I have often have problems when decompile themes error, I then modified my app, using the file system / framework / framework-res .apk in phone system to use, of course it is complete and error problem when decompile theme has disappeared
Changes in v6.2:
- more optimal and can use heavier themes
- remove multiple theme options, instead multi-mode theme, multi-theme mode if you only use one theme, it will same one theme mode in old version
- remove automatically search and downloaded theme when the application starts, it automatically search only the first use, then it will automatically save and reload results in the following opening times, to update the new theme select Refresh it
Changes in v6.1:
- Completing the optimal speed for 2 mode of multi-mode and 1 theme, it can faster 50-100ms than v6.0;
Changes in v6.0:
- Has been optimized and the speed increased significantly.
- Use 2 methods to change the theme, A method for optimal speed and fastest mode instead of using one theme. When using multi-mode theme, even though the optimal speed has improved significantly, however compared to the method used to replace one theme it is still slower than 100-300ms depending on the size of the used themes. This is easy to understand when I have to use a lot of loops and conditional control over the selection and installation of multiple simultaneous themes. I will try to improve this for the most perfect possible with later versions. Because of this, if you do not have the need to use multiple themes, I recommend using one theme mode . It should not be too worried about this when in the second mode will increase the speed and stability
Change in v5.2
-With the version of this v5.2 it will fix the one the problem Fatal at version v5.1, which I have detected and quick fix it
at version v5.1, you will not be changed items applications if you do not choose add change android (System framework)
-I have detected a loop excess, i have removed it, i think it is better, more optimal,
Change in v5.1
+ Fix problems not full change of theme icon on v5.0
+ Improves the speed , I think it's a little more flashy v4.0 but of course not comparable as v5.0
+ Adjust some logic in changing the regime has chosen theme for theme packages the same time , this course is not recommended
+ Added option to display all the data or system applications ( Relationship with search options :data , system search) .
I do not recommend for this finding , since the mechanism to find the current theme is very stable and accurate . If there are themes you can not see in the list , then I think your theme is the problem of its activities ( for error or because of incompatible systems ) . It resulted in the system not able to read and receive information resource icon and the whole of it , then the system will display an app 's icon to the default error icon . so HK Theme Manager will not be able to read and get information resource for the theme of change too
Change in v5.0
- fix lag when change theme, reboot faster,... if you are slow, i think your theme is too heavy.
- Add settings options
+ replace with layout, default is not use, it will better if you do not use it when change theme, unless you are sure to replace this layout for your theme is fine
+ add menu support change multi theme, so now you can use multi items in multi theme combined for change
+ it can update change without reboot except when change framework (android) it will quick reboot.
update v4.0, change log
- In this new version I updated to add some new functions
+ Search options only on data or system , or both if both are selected . Default search just with the theme installed on the data , so the search time was much quicker
+ Is the default search with the theme contains redirections.xml , however some CM theme have not it and we can not find it in list theme. So a new option in the search options to try search with all that theme have not redirections.xml, the choice this will take more time searching
+ A new additional functions compared to version v3.0 . This version allows you to select the components to replace , meaning that for each theme will allow alternative image updates , icons on the different applications , with this option you can customize it for replacement with each application instead of updating all of the components and the whole Theme
+ Try replacing with the support framework : twframework - res.apk . I can not yet tried it , I need a response from you
update v 3.0, change log
- change method get theme file, and it can show and list theme that have not xml/redirections.xml (for any CM theme with meta data redirections)
- replace icon with new method with without redirections.xml, or with redirections.xml, you only need checked at : Set theme with use redirections.xml file?
- add view preview image for CM theme
- add button make Redirections.xml file, so if your theme have not redirections.xml, you can make it and add to your theme if you need. file make will in sdcard
- change interface of my app.

Any web for cm themes ? ?

Whoa!! Looks amazing!!! i'll check it out...
btw, thanks!! :good:
Hey man, great stuff! I have a small problem though. Some CM themes (actually most of them) make my Nexus 4 (stock ROM) slower. For example, try applying a theme and then open 'Apps' under Settings. The list of apps take a long time to load.. Some of the themes that give this behavior are Alloy Blue, Simplex Blue, etc..
Thanks man! By the way, i don't mean any disrespect to the developers of the themes i mentioned above..

Thank you man for your help and support.
May I know from where I can download them shown in screenshot shared by you. And basically what kind of themes I can use with this. I tried 2 CM11 Themes from play store but after that settings become very slow and search of installed app in you app also crashed for 3 time and then showed installed app.
i want to install Crimson cobalt theme from play store but is not shown in hk theme manager. (after i did all the steps). What can I do?

I think it is not difficult to find the CM theme, play store, xda forum .... and you can search in google.com.

thank you for test it and have comments to i can devlop it
I think it is probably slower than the theme that is too heavy
I'm still optimizing and developing it , the search method and a method to apply the general theme so I 'm using , if only for configurations with 1 search limited only by the user - permission as xtheme . or recognizing anything beyond information seeking applications mentioned in androidmanifest , it will reduce the inspection process and looking theme , so will quickly make search results more
Maybe I 'll add search options so that it can search faster , or will have other ideas for developing better
Also in theme installation method , I have been studying to optimize for reading objects faster, thus increasing processing speeds and when replacing system theme.

i think when use theme, it will slower, but if very slowly, I need to test and perfect it. I will check and optimizer for why it is slower when use theme

when you installed it, you go to settings> applications. You view icon of it,
If the application icon is the default icon of android bug, I think that your application is defective or it is not compatible SDK for your system, because the system is not able to retrieve information resource to the application icon, so icon error given default by system, and therefore HK theme manager also can not read and obtain its resource
Is there any way to solve this issue? I'm having the same problem the person you quoted has

i don not understand, can you talk detail your problem?
Never mind, am using theme engine much better
Is it possible to redirect smali with this app? If not yet, would it be possible to implement?
Also, it would be great if you added it to the Xposed repo so that it could be installed from within the Xposed Framework app and we would be notified of updates.

Thanks for the effort mate.
Just to ensure can we use any CM theme with this Xposed MOD or is this only support Xtheme apk
This is promising. Unfortunately, the lag it caused for me with applied betterkat cm theme, is just ridiculous.
I've got a couple comments regarding this module. First I'd like to say that it has HUGE potential, just like XThemeEngine. Unfortunately the developer for XThemeEngine seems to have vanished and all development stopped. I'm hoping that doesn't happen again here.
I am currently working on theming my S4 and Note 10.1. I started by creating an XThemeEngine theme, which I am now using with HKThemeManager. I had some big issues with XThemeEngine which unfortunately still exist in HKThemeManager, that I am hoping you can resolve.
Basically, certain things are simply not themeing. There are images in twframework-res.apk, for example, that if I replace manually in the .apk the changes are reflected in the phone/tablet, but if I try to redirect them with XThemeEngine or HKThemeManager they simply don't change. I've been making CM themes for years so I'm not a novice and I know all of my syntax is correct. Also, in certain apps, such as Tasker, the same image will change in some parts of the app and not others. I tested this by creating a CM theme and applied it on a CM ROM - all instances of the image in Tasker changed. If I apply that exact same theme on a non-CM ROM using your HKThemeManager, the image will change in some places and not others.
Is this something you can fix, or is it just a limitation of the Xposed Framework itself?
For the time being I am replacing all images manually and everything is working. The problem with this method is that every time I flash a new ROM or an app I themed is updated I have to manually replace the images again. And since I am themeing my phone and my tablet, I have to do twice the work. It would be a much better solution to be able to use HKThemeManager.
Also, and less importantly, is it possible to allow HKThemeManager to redirect .smali files similar to redirecting images or .xml files? As far as I know, the only way to modify .smali currently is by decompiling and recompiling the apk. If you could somehow allow for redirecting .smali your app would certainly be a HUGE asset to the Android platform.
