[Q] Skins for Sense 2.1 with Lock Ring? - EVO 4G General

I'm currently running Mik3.1, which is Sense 2.1, and has the Lock Ring on the lock screen. I've seen the skins for Sense 3.0 that change the Lock Ring, but can't seem to find any for Sense 2.1. Is there a way to create one, or does someone have a skin that changes the Lock Ring for Sense 2.1?

None of those are skins, those are all flashable files to change the ring

I had already reviewed that thread, but none of the skins i tried from that thread changed the lockscreen ring.
What i'm trying to find is a guide to create a skin that also changes the lockscreen ring for 2.1, or an already existing skin (so i can use as my base) for 2.1 that changes the lockscreen ring.

Oh i'm soo sorry,my mistake,geez no appreciation.

Sense 2.1 does not use skins in the way that Sense 3.0 does. On Sense 3.0 you can download skin apks that you install with market, but system apks on Sense 2.1 cannot be installed this way. You have to flash zip files to change most visuals, including lock rings.
I'm too new to XDA to post links
BUT if you go here you'll find lots of great themes and mods in addition to diablo's links (which you have to flash through recovery).
themikmik >> Forum >> HTC Evo 4GHTC >> Evo 4G ROM Development >> MikGv3.xxMikG v3.xx Themes, Mods and Tweaks
If you want to make your own mods (which you will still have to flash through recovery), then you will need to search for instructions on how to use APKTOOL. Basically, you use unzip the zip file, then use APKTOOL to unpack the apk, then go in and change your images, then use APKTOOL to repack, then zip and sign your zip file (search for "testsign").
EDIT: OOOPS, Sense 2.1 does support skins the way you mention. I don't think you can change the lock ring with a skin, though. It's in a different system apk than the stuff the skins affect.

I have installable skin apks for sense 2.1, which don't need flashed. As far as I can tell, it changes everything that sense 3.0 skins can change, with the exception of lock screen material, like the ring. guess ill just have to stick with flashing for the lock ring edits, and the installable skins for everything else. oh well
thanks for the replies

How can I theme CyanogenMod?

Hi
I have been using CM6 Nightlies for a while now, and I have been lurking about in the theme section for a while, and I would like to know how I can theme my Cyanogenmod roms?
Is it a case of actually flashing themed roms instead of Cyanogenmod?
I know ADWLauncher (included in Cyanogenmod) can be themed independently, but I am still a n00b to themes so would like to know what the best options are!
Thanks

Check out the threads over in the general android theming forum, especially this one
Sage words below
TIP: Your first theme should really just be a mixing and matching of other themes to get use to the process.
TIP: d/l and look at other themes and see what the have done, using the same process below you can port and mash themes. To see what is themed go to the res/drawable-xxx folders and sorte the png's in there to newest at the top and you'll see what they have changed.
TIP: system/app/xxx.apk are where most apps that are themed are contained in these apks you'll find a res folder and in there you have a bunch of folders. you really on need to look in the drawable-xxx ones mdpi, no-dpi, land and so forth. these pngs make up the apps look and feel changing them will theme the app.

New ASUS Day Scene from Prime

Just wanted to give back to the community and went ahead and pulled the new ASUS Day Scene Apk from the new update for the Prime to are OG Transformer. All you have to do is use rootexplorer or adb and push to system/app and set permissions like the original one and make sure to remove the odex file from the original day scene and reboot thats it. Here is the link just post a comment and let me know how it went.
http://www.mediafire.com/?aro26bhbacoli2z
Thanks. So it adds 2d effects on top of asus wallpapers. Pretty nice.
Anyone have any idea how to make it work on non ASUS roms?
Could you by chance add the necessary ASUS libs. I can't get it to launch on Code Name Android v.1.5.5 due to the missing libs. Thanks
only stock ROM's for now.

Right now it will only work if your using stock or a ROM made from the stock ROM as it has the libs your talking about. I got the apk from the virtuous prime rom so I would start there by downloading it and looking inside the zip for anything that will help you with installing it on a ASOP ROM, good luck and let me know how it works.
Do you have to be rooted?
yes you must be rooted
Yes you must be rooted.
Anyone have ANY IDEA how to make this work on non Asus roms? On CM9, it just shows a black background with overlay 2d effects because it's unable to get the wallpapers.

I took a look inside it and all it has is the _small wallpapers so i would assume you would need to essencialy use your own tutorial to work the wallpapers into the launcher or sideload the asus launcher2
or you could edit the xml's to change the path to inside the app its self and put everything in there

Yea I've seen that. It just has the small thumbnails. I really wish I knew how to program right now.
I've tried decompiling and recompiling the default launcher of CM9 to add asus wallpapers with their original name and edited array.xml so they all show up correctly in wallpaper picker but the live wallpaper still doesn't see them.

Pretty sure it is looking for them in launcher2 not the default launcher so that may be the issue

How would you go about loading launcher2 into memory or force the ROM to run it?
Simply placing launcher2.apk in system/app didn't work. I tried to run it but it won't.
If anyone has problem decompiling asusdayscene.apk, use the hacked jar posted here http://code.google.com/p/android-ap...Type Status Priority Mi lestone Owner Summary

Remove EMUI lockscreen in favour of AOSP lockscreen

Anyone know how to hide the stock emui 4.1 lockscreen in favour of the aosp one built into android.
I have tried:
1. Deleting Keyguard.apk in /system/priv-app -- Removes lockscreen completly leaving nothing. (Probably all that can be done...)
2. Looking for lockscreen related lines in build.prop -- found "ro.config.hwft_PinPukUnlockscr=true" made it false to no avail.
3. Removing HwThemeManager.apk in /system/app -- Removes "Themes" app and lockscreen theme options in settings.
If anyone can help please say.
Thanks.
Hi,
You can't because it's tied to the rest of EMUI interface, if you want to get pure Android look you can flash CM13.

4. FIRST... Format Data and reboot recovery.
5.After reboot of recovery..Wipe Dalvik and Art Cache,Wipe System,Wipe Data,Wipe Cache and Internal Storage unless you have things stored there you want to save,it's not a must to wipe internal storage.
6. Flash rom.

Anyone wanting to use this Rom as base for their carrier and build or just want to use a few files can. I don't care about credit. Use what you feel you need. No issues from me. As for work not mine. Please do give credit to those mentioned above. Thanks.
Bad ass and thanks, Curtis! Been using your Roms since the zte awe n800 - back in the androidforums days.
I have a small update coming which incorperates all of the s8 nougat icons for systemui. But want to hold off posting it until I sort out adding edge support. Also what I hope is a full weather fix. You will notice the launcher lags when changing rows/columns for the app drawer. Just swipe from right edge to center and change will take effect.

Hello,if you dont care about credits and have the files ready,can you send me the UI with nougat icons and symbols in sb so i can port/mod to make it work on our DUX ROM for J320F?
Use what you wish. But I will leave the foot work to you. Its not difficult to extract needed items from the system.

WiFi works fine for me. I'm going to upload version 2 with fixes for gallery crash,calendar crash along with new ui and weather app. I have not modified WiFi related apps at all. Are you sure you were on J327PVPU1AQF4 rom build and not a lower or higher version?
I think I have a good idea why Wifi isnt working. The magisk built boot kernel. Magisk has proven to be more of a problem than a benefit. Update will not include magisk.
Rom updated with dream UX SystemUI,settings framework icons,etc..removed magisk. Causing more problems than its worth. Only bugs left are some lag in how Launcher readings icons after picking grid sizes for apps screen. A quick swipe from right edge to the left takes care of it. And weather bug.
Thanks Curtis! Will try this out this weekend and shall report back - looks good
New rom on the way. HTC Flashback Rom. Check screens below. I will be decompiling the HTC apps to resemble old school sense to match the Samsung theme being used. As of now the rom runs with NO app bugs. All but Samsung contacts,messaging,and main settings/systemui have been replaced. Will post. She's sense in every way except core touchwiz.

When replacing the icons be sure only to include those that match those in your roms systemui and settings2 apk files. If only one qmg,spr,etc is in the apk that does not belong there,it will either give a parsing error,not even show in app,drawer or installed apps,or force close
Do not replace any of the xml files. Luckily for our device these two apks can be extracted like a zip,modify the icons then recipe,rename apk. Others need decompiling and recompiling or you'll get the errors above. Your device files may or may not extract the same as ours do.
