[REQ]Mythamps Nexus contacts theme

A few weeks back, I could get this working on a Sense FroYo rom. (for the life of me, I can't remember what one it was)
Since flashing different roms, I haven't been able to make it work on any. Always results in the contacts app being removed.
Any ideas what the problem could be?

Really nice.
Di someone succed to flash that on a CM6 ROM? I'm too afraid to do that.

Works on latest DeFrost.
I love the theme, especially the dialer look.

Sound more complicated, here are some stuff I don't Understand very weel.
They are located from post #16 in the original thread you linked in first post:
"U have to rename the file cm6phone.APK to Phone.apk and then dump it in the update.zip, reflash and goodluck. Thanks all"
"I think the CM Rom owners need to get some help from their romdev gurus there"
"No that recovery update is for stock rom owners,
this mod is not working for CM6 users"

Yeah, I don't think its working for CM6. Check the first post in that thread, it links to a few pages for cm6 users.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Yeah, I tried the CM6 modified version, and they work pretty well.
Unfortunately, they are not up-to-date with the screenshots ( older version)
I cannot believe that someone here is not intersted by porting this theme to CM6 to our Desire...
Would be awesome

The complete theme looks sweet (not only the contacts.apk) ! Might try porting it soon, but hoping someone will do it sooner

Can post the files once i get back home from work.
didnt bother with the framework though since i didnt like it very much.
got it to work on kalis CM6 rc1 port.
if ya want the framework files lemme know

[REQUEST] Background for lockscreen pattern.

Hi, I've been using VillainROM 12 for a couple of weeks now, and recently flashed cronos froyo and saw that the lockscreen pattern had the background of my home screen.
Is there any way to port this feature to VillainROM 12 as I have reverted back to it now.
Thanks, Andy
Sent from my HTC Hero using the XDA mobile application

just had a quick look at the htclockscreen.apk from Villain12 but coudn't find any images which think could be for the background of the lock pattern screen. I thought it would be as simple as swapping it out with a transparent image.
however there is an xml called htc_keyguard_screen_lock.xml .
compare the one from cronos to the villain one with notepad++ (my lappy is in for repair, no notepad++ on this one sorry),... or compare the whole apk even.
..... Or beg someone to have a go,.... It cant be that much of a big job.
.... EDIT.... Or nandroid backup, then try just using the htclockscreen.apk from cronos on the villain ROM.

Thanks for the reply. I've had a look for htclockscreen.apk but can't find it,which directory is it is and is it in the system or the flashed zip?
Sent from my HTC Hero using the XDA mobile app

Yeah, so take it from the zip file that you would flash through the recovery.
the apk will be in system/app.

Thanks. I started making some progress, swapping some .apk files between the two ROMs but the went to cronos and did not find 'htclockscreen.apk' it is a vanillaROM so there probably isn't an htc app in it. Do you know what the .apk would be on a vanillaROM?
Thanks, Andy

Oh sh#t,.... How did I miss you were talking about CronosFroyo?... I'm sorry.
Ok, so its not as easy as swapping out the apks. Hmmmm,.... I'll try to have a look when I get home for you.
It might be a no go though.
Get onto the Villain site and ask them in the chat thing.....

Mate, had a look at Cronos Froyo and yeah you're right, nothing in system/apps looks anything like a lockscreen. I think its time you asked the experts........ PULSER.... Help this guy out!!!!

Black GMail

Hey Guys,
I really like the option to turn the SMS MMS app into black in cyanogen so i replaced my oxygen app with the one from cyan7. But is there a way to get a black GMail app? Or did i just not find that option?
Thx a lot!!!
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Would be nice if someone could make a 2.3 based black one. The text is black so you would have to edit the xml files to make the text white or light grey.
Ive tried this before on other apps, but unfortunately it is beyond me.

I get a not installed error.
UPDATE: I tried uninstalling Gmail and installing mikep99's apk and it still failed. I did get the droidforums version to install.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

On a slightly related note, I've installed the black Mms.apk from the C7 via adb but it keeps reverting to the regular one on reboots. Any ideas?
EDIT: I pushed via adb and set the permissions and it's all good.

Thanks for your work! Black GMail would be awesomesauce! However I've tried to install it and I get "not installed" error. I'm using Redux 1.0 ROM. I didn't uninstall original GMail app first because uninstall button isn't enabled and it can't be pressed. I'm sure this is what causes error, any idea how get rid of GMail?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Use ADB if you're not S-OFF to remove Gmail.apk from /system/app then push the black one I posted to /system/app.
Make sure the permissions are the same as the other apps in that location.
Boot into recovery, wipe dalvik cache and reboot.
If you're S-OFF you can do the above through root explorer or similar...
Should be ok.

Brilliant thanks for that. Its not quite black, but the text is white, so possibliy I can edit the grey to black if it is controlled by .png files. It is version 2.3 too, which is the latest version that works for me.

Thanks. Its not the same as yours is 2.3.2, which doesnt work for me unfortunately. The other is 2.3.

Hi,
can I use this apk on my Desire rooted and without any rom??

I run CM 7 RC (Honeybred theme) and as much dark as possible (although never only black). I try to get working as much as possible from the brilliant dark mods in here: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/blacked-out/
There's updated GMail apks available there too.

You need a ROM to run your phone and this apk. What are you trying to do?

here its a flashebal ZIP
you can flash this , i did it over miui , cm7 , sens roms , and it's working
it's not my work , so don't tank me

and also you can extract the apk , replace the gmail app it in the SYS/APP folder
and flash you rom , it will work also

Yep and unlike 2.3.2, it actually works. I liked the 2.3 one I was using but would have preferred grey for unread email and black for read email not the other way around.

Thanks, this will help make Android more unified.

[FIX] Android Revolution HD™ 7.0.x Hebrew Fix

Hello Everyone,
I saw people asking about Hebrew fix for the AWESOME Android Revolution HD Rom,
so I compiled a fix from a script This Guy made.
For the official thread of the ROM here's a link.
And for the the fix to flash AFTER you flash the room AND boot it.
Downloads:
Current Version:
ARHD 7.3: HebFix_Android_Revolution_HD_v7.3_Fonts.zip.
ARHD 9.0: HebFix_Android_Revolution_HD_v9.0_Fonts.zip.​
Older Versions:
ARHD 7.0.x: HebFix_Android_Revolution_HD_v7.0.x_Fonts.zip.
ARHD 6.3.x: HebFix_Android_Revolution_HD_v6.3.x_Fonts.zip.​Enjoy.
*Note:
For some reason the Hebrew locale option is not available in Settings>Language and Keyboard>Select Language, there is a way to change this with this app https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale.
Just Select custom locale and write iw and then IL.
And if you like to thank the guy that made the script Donate him.

Thanks
I'll try it our thanks man!!

Works GREAT

I flashed 6.1.5 yesterday and the hebfix working great!
Thanks

Hey,
I flashed your fix for 6.2 ARHD, and the fonts look nice, I think the ones on the other fix were actually nicer, but doesn't really matter.
Anyway, the pull to the right side works on the SMS and on Gmail, but not on all the widgets like people widget, Calender widget, but does work on others like Gtasks and Go SMS widgets.
Thanks for your hard work

tanks mate for the greate fix

If you have the fonts that you need you can just download the zip file and replace the fonts in the /system/fonts folder.
And don't forget to delete the other folders so it will not do the RTL fix (/system/framework and /system/lib).
And in anycase do a nanodroid backup first, who knows what could happen.
Hope this will help you

Hey Omriabu1
Did you change anything dramatic in the V.6.3.1 ?
I flashed the one for 6.2..0, over mike's 6.3.1 version and so far it works pretty well.
Question is do you think it would cause issues, an if so, would simply flashing your recent work just resolve it?
BTW thanks a lot for releasing updates and staying on top of things, your doing a great service

Actualy I don't think there is not much difference between the two versions because it's Basicly the same base, but I just wanted to be on the safe side and recompile the fix using the files from the new ROM.
Anyway if it's working for you now I don't think there will be any problem with it later on but you can flash on top of it the new version if you like.
And don't worry about the updates I'm a user myself so I just upload what I'm using

Installed on Virtuous Affinity 2.0.5 and confirm that the patch works and solves some issues, for instance in Waze roads numbers are finally shown in correct manner, i.e. like 123 instead of 321 as it was before. Thank you very much!
The only remaining problem after the patch was installed is Music application that doesn't show albums/songs/singers names in Hebrew fonts, but uses default locale fonts (Russian in my case). If somebody can help to solve this last problem it will be greatly appreciated.

Well the fix should work on every rom from the same android build on theory.
But I used the files from the ARHD Rom so I just wanted to be safe, because I don't know if the original file was change in other roms.

And for that problem maybe you can find and install a different font that support both Hebrew and Russian.

[Q] MMS Fix? HELP mms_config.xml on HTC HD2 running LEO Stock Desire NAND Android Rom

So before anyone says something. I've searched the Forums a good 2-3 weeks before becoming a member to ask this question. I NEED HELP.
Okay so, I've installed the LEO Stock Desire Nand Android Rom on my HTC HD2. Only probably is that the pics sent through mms are very small in comparison to the actual files. I've figured out that I have to edit the mm_prop.conf and change it to say Nexus or N95 instead of the Bravo in order to fix it. But I just can't seem to replace the file or edit it. I've literally tried everything. Mind suggesting new alternatives? Does anyone know how to fix this? Please help. Thanks

So when you say you have been unable do you mean you can't open it and make the changes?
Sent from my HTC Runnymede using XDA App

Let me make a correction. I specified the wrong file. I meant the mm_prop.conf file. And no. I know how to open it and edit it. My question is, how do I re-write the original file that is in the /system/etc directory? Is there anyway to flash it? Because I am having trouble implementing the fix.

U only joined to ask a question -_-
By trying everything I'm assuming u used root explorer to edit the file and checked to see if u can set a user agent in the messaging app itself, haven't been on a Desire build in a while but seeing how they're highly updated I would either reflash or search the thread which u got the rom one more time because that seems like an issue ppl wouldn't ignore
Sent from my HD2 using xda premium

Haha. No, I didn't join just to ask a question. And you would think that someone would ask this question, which they have, but no one has actually found an answer. According to the forums the orginal Leo Stock Desire Nand Android ROM is the only ROM that hasn't been updated since it's release.
So in order to fix the mms problem in this ROM I must edit the file, but everytime I do, I am unable to rewrite the actual file because its permissions make it so that you can't.
Will rooting the phone, make it so that I can gain access of the ROOT files? How would I go about doing that?
And does anyone know how to flash a root system file using the install .zip option in clockwork? Because that sounds like it could solve my problem.

Not exactly sure if this will work for the rom that your using but tytung uploaded a zip that you can flash through cwm that fixes this problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11419702#post11419702
Worked for me on simple mobile

Thanks I'll look into it, but I doubt its compatible with the rom I'm running. Anymore suggestions?

Try going into the messaging app and changing the user agent to NexusOne (in settings and then select custom) you probably still need the file edited somehow, but it doesn't hurt to see if it helps

wow -__-
that last comment doesn't apply to this rom. This rom was the first to be released and doesn't support that feature.

I meant the builds, but just try another Desire rom if its something that irritates you. Just saying
Sent from my HD2 using xda premium

I've already tried that and they all seem like they have either too many bugs, or they're missing some features that the original already offers.
To me the original rom is complete in terms of most functionality and glitches. The only thing it really lacks is the mms fix. Which I'm trying to fix myself, but am stuck...
