[SOLVED]Transparent Menu - Sense ROM

Hi!
I'm wondering if it's possible to have transparent background in menu(all apps) on a Sense ROM?! Simillar to ADWLauncer's Menu where it's transparent.
EspressoMod with semi-transparent App Drawer

that would be nice to know.

Indeed! =)

+1 I would like to have this mod too. I can edit rosie.apk or services.jar but i don`t know what i must change there.

+1
10 char

push there must be a way

Guess we should contact the developers of LauncherPro, ADW etc. because the appmenu is a part of the launcher

Yes it is possible. Its the rosie.akp and htc.resources.apk
In the htc incredible section.

I searched Rosie.apk and com.htc.resources.apk and i didn't find anything that would change the backgroung in all apps menu. Do you know which file i have to edit specifically?!

No I have not found out which xmls to change. Its not the pictures you have to change the xml files. Check incredible section for "sexy rosie".

i did some searching for you and found this. such code language is greek to me as im not too good with coding jargon. hope it helps you:
Q- I want to be able to change the background color to white in my android app in the simplest way possible
A- You need to use the android:background property , eg
android:background="@color/white"
Also you need to you need to add a value for white in the strings.xml
<color name="white">#FFFFFF</color>
A2- You can also use
android:background="#ffffff"
in your xml layout, or you can change the theme in your AndroidManifest.xml by adding
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Light"
to your activity tag.
If you want to change the background dynamically, use
YourView.setBackgroundColor(Color.argb(255, 255, 255, 255))
hope this helps

oh..there isn't any good news now at this moment.
on the one hand, I can't decompile the "conversation.apk" individually,
(the error just like : "Could not decode attr value, using undecoded value instead")
on the other hand, the "framework-res.apk"&"blur-res.apk" can be decompiled correctly, but I edit some xml about colors, and my device can't boot with the replacement.
I have to recovery it now..and waiting for help!!

check through the threads on this forum and see if anybody has posted a similar question as yours and if they have a solution. my bet is somebody has.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=565
EDIT: after looking around a bit, most people on other forums recommend for you just to use handcent. apparently its the simplest fix without you having to tweak around much a lot. they just recommend for you to disable the stock message notification so that you wont get 2 notifications on your notification bar. perhaps you'd wanna give it another go? besides, apparently handcent supports upto 5mb of storage as opposed to the standard 2mb on the stock messaging app

Someone attach the apk please.

I got why I can't decompile Conversations.apk..
This man said in his thread:
"
I am trying to decompile Conversations.APK from /system/app with APKTool
I am using framework-res.apk, blur-res.apk and moto-res.apk as the framework.
It was successfuly decompiled.
"
I knew this before, but I don't know how to use them as the framework..
maybe I gonna ask him for details...to decompile my conversations

LATEST:
I decompilied conversation.apk successfully,
the code in "\res\values\drawables.xml" is:
Code:
<item type="drawable" name="white_background">#ffffffff</item>
I changed #ffffffff to #00000000 and saved it .
But it doesn't work...nothing happened with my TextMessaging!
I think I should have a try on framework-res.apk or blur-res.apk.

Black is #ff000000

Bump, MOD Done.
The file to edit was compose_message_activity change white with black
Well, I guess it is what you wanted, I forgot how the stock mms looked like. Test.

[HELP] Cooking a theme

Hi
I cooked my first theme today with UOT Kitchen.
The theme installs but:
- boot animation doesn't change (although selected other from UOT)
- statusbar buttons don't change (although selected others from UOT)
- carrier name remains black (although selected it to be white)
The rest appears like I wanted, no errors.
What am I doing wrong?

i dont know anything of UOT, it can change lockscreen ??

in your cooked zip, if there's a bootanimation.zip, just push it into /data/local. That'll solve the bootanimaton problem.

Just edit the xml file.I think you can find it at-/system/framework/framework_res.apk
just decompile the file framework_res.apk and go to-framework_res/res/drawable/Progress_horizontal.xml.edit the file Progress_horizontal.xml for change the colour.

It is in framework-res.apk
It is something related with progress bar. I don't remember exact name. I will check exact name and tell you.
It can also be changed from UOT Kitchen.
