[Q] How to copy theme from one build to another? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Anyway to copy themes from one build to another?
Let me rephrase, I know it's possible I just don't know how to do all of it.
Aside from the framework-res.apk and the LatinIME.apk for keyboard what else would I need?
I am currently using ShubCRAFT2.0Dropmode and love *EVERYTHING* about it. I just want a newer build so I was looking into the HD2ONE 3.4 based on CM6.1 stable.
I just want to copy the entire theme over, fonts, transitions, etc.

anyone?

bump it up

anyone at all?

any devs????

Maybe ask in the development section? I don't know how many devs actually look in this one and they're the ones who are gonna have that answer.

How to cook a rom?

So, there are so many people making really good roms now. A little dash of this and a hint of that, and viola, your flashing my rom on your phone!!
So how do you start cooking roms?
What software is needed? Do you need eclipse? Do you just need a file manager and an unzip utility?
Has anyone created a tutorial on cooking a rom?
I have some skill with android, and am pretty good and flashing and stuff, I wouldnt mind adding root a build that I like or taking something else out. Maybe add an app to the image, or add an option to my recovery image.
Where do I start?
Have a look at this thread, particually post #8

Also you could try posting in the Sapphire Android development forum next time
Thanks, Im up and going now. Me and my brother (my brother and I) are going to make a 'loaded' rom with lots of apks preloaded apks.
Question, where are the default wallpapers stored? What about the animated boot logo?

The boot animation depends if you're asop or sense. Sense (If I remember correctly) is System/customize/resources. And ASOP is System/Media

Stock Epic Dialer?

How do I use the stock epic dialer on Viper ROM? I don't really like the black theme and was just wondering if I could revert just the dialer?
Thanks

Greetings all I'm brand new to the community..
I would love to see more themed dialers, in addition to the above requests. I did a good 30 minutes of searching through various posts as well.. Only to find two specific threads regarding dialers
By: idkwhothatis123 and jbadboy2007
One spoke of FC with some contacts button or something..
The other threads mentioning themed dialers led me to believe there would be more..
I'm either missing something. or I'm missing something??
Might any body point me in the right direction of were I could check out some themed dialers? Purtty please?
I'm running (this took me 2 days of getting my hands dirty!!!)
Epic: running Viper Trinity 3.03 and..... MY GPS works!!!!!!!!(20 hours and every version of firmware to get it that way.. )
But no I'm all warmed up and ready to go.. LOL..
Regarding a themed dialer.. I'm not just making a noob request.. I'm made the decision to start learning how to develop. Yay for me.. ( I have a programming bg and am excited to get started.. )
I'd love to replace the trinity dialer though in the mean time.. Jeeze Goat.. talk much?
Thanks all
I'm not sure which build that version of viper is on, but ideally, u could download any compatible theme. Then download the acs deodexed dk28 ROM. the dialer, alone is system/app/phone.apk.
What i would do is, open both theme and acs rom with 7zip (on computer), then drag the phone.apk into the theme folder.. then save, copy to sdcard, and flash normally.
Dialer
Thanks man for the quick reply..
I'm running SPH-D700-DK28-Extended-D
I believe that should suffice. Don't know what deoxed means yet. but I think my version is "deoxed"..?
So what I'm gathering is I can just grab any compatible theme copy it's phone.apk in to the the DK28 build that I'm using.. and re-flash?
That would mean I would then need to reflash the ROM right..
My understanding is that reflashing with a DK28 build will kill the custom ROM(viper)..
I'm having a sneaky suspicion that this should be in the devlopment section.. and now I'm thinking I need to do more homework.. Hmmmm
on another note.. I just d/l Viper Store from market.. they have some custom dialers for dl.. I'll try one of those..
However.. only one of them is available for d/l from my phone as the other 3 require one to use the multiupload link provided.. which strangely enough doesn't work on my(oranyone's?) Epic..
Ahhh so many little issues..
Thanks for you help

[Request] LG Optimus Rom or Theme with working widgets

Hi!
I have a question...
Is it possible to build a Rom from LG Optimus Speed (2X) System Dump? I love the design. Maybe a theme with all widget and so is also good.
The Problem is that the widgets not working when I install them via Astro File Manager...
System Dump: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931114
I dont know were the topic should be.
Wrong forum, should be in Q&A or Themes/Apps
Could Someone help me? I think an AOSP Rom with these Apk's is enough.
The apps will be designed to work with the framework of the device they come from so it would need re-writing to get it to work with the Desire. It'd take a lot of work
But maybe someone want to do this, because for nexus is a theme with Optimus style and there is a huge interesting.

If nobody is interested to build a Rom, it is possible to build a Theme for a Rom like Oxygen or MIUI? There are many people who are interested in a Theme.

[Q] [REQ] Smart Dialer mod

Same!
When y'all are asking for a "[MOD]", does that mean you're looking for something you can flash with a recovery mod?
If yes, I know CyanogenMod adds this feature to the stock dialer. However, I don't know if that's something you can just extract the phone .apk and upload. However, if you're able to flash would you consider flashing a new ROM anyway? Most nightlies of the big roms (CM10.1, AOKP) are usually really stable on Nexus devices because they have all of the proper drivers & source for everything. Nightlies aren't as stable on other phones because they're missing device-specific drivers and such.
If no, then nevermind. I don't know of an option to add this ability to the stock dialer. Sorry.

Been using this since I got the phone. Skinable, no ads, and quick
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.modoohut.dialer&hl=en
A couple of the custom ROMs have this feature (Paranoid Android being one of them). You can either flash one of the ROMs that include it, or try to extract the dialer apk from it and try installing it.
I would prefer a new modded apk over a new rom. Anyone have the apk from cm10?

[Q] Overscroll Bounce

Hello.
I've tried searching both via Google & XDA Search and haven't found it so I'm opening a thread.
I really liked the overscroll bounce in MIUI as it gives the phone a more natural feel.
Is it possible to port it for my AOKP based ROM?
Thanks in advance,
Niv.

I think you should have asked your AOKP ROM dev.to add this feature.
Or you can try different launchers having this feature.
This used to be in CM7 but now its been ditched

I want this animation all over my device, not only the launcher.
Basically I want it instead of the overscroll glow.
Isn't there a flashable zip or a "do it yourself" tutorial?
Or if none exists, will anyone be willing to make one for me or at least direct me in the right direction?

I think what you're talking about is a change to the actual ROM itself. In order to do that, you'd have to tear apart the ROM, over-write that part you want changed, then recompile the ROM. If you don't know how to do that (I know I don't), I'd ask your ROM developer if they could include it in a future build.
Sorry I'm not more helpful.
I think apple patented this feature in iOS, thus why it isn't on any other official os.

Yeah, kinda figured that one out, I just thought it can be made into a flashable zip or a simple "Replace X with Y" could be done since 99% of the ROMS use the same Overscroll Glow effect, but thx anyway.
You could try decompiling the framework-res.apk from an aosp ROM and miui ROM. Then copy the anim, anim-land, anim-sw720dp, and animator folders from miui to aosp. Recompile it and push it back into your ROM. It probably won't work but it's worth a shot.

I decompiled both "framework-res.apk" & "framework-miui-res.apk".
framework-miui-res didn't yield anything interesting, but framework-res.apk had the files:
anticipate_overshoot_interpolator.xml //Might be the "Overscroll"
bounce_interpolator.xml //Most likely to be the thing I'm looking for
overshoot_interpolator.xml //Might be the "Overscroll"
push_down_in.xml //Probably unrelated, but worth mentioning
push_down_in_no_alpha.xml //Probably unrelated, but worth mentioning
push_down_out.xml //Probably unrelated, but worth mentioning
push_down_out_no_alpha.xml //Probably unrelated, but worth mentioning
push_up_in.xml //Probably unrelated, but worth mentioning
push_up_out.xml //Probably unrelated, but worth mentioning
Problem is "bounce_interpolator.xml" only contains the following code:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<bounceInterpolator />
Which I think means I need some additional files to make that function,
though I have no idea how to find them, or once I find them, use them (Just yesterday I learned how to work with APKTool).
Just in case someone is willing to take a look, idk how much help it is, but I'll include the framework-res & framework-miui-res decompiled folders.
