Inverted apps... what's missing?

mik3, they should be in the layout folder.

EDIT: They ARE in there.

If he's talking about the yahoo app, you need to decompile it with apk manager (google it if you don't have it already, 4.9 is the current version, I've heard that 4.7 is the local favorite), not your framework, but the app itself. Once you make your modifications and you go to recompile it, select yes for system app, yes to the next question. At the next prompt, go to the apk manager folder/keep, and delete the resources.arsc file. Then go back to the script and continue. The reason to delete that file is because when the layout, values and other folders are compiled, they turn into resources.arsc. once complete with compiling, compare the size with the original. If it matches or is VERY close, you are good. If not, grab the resources.arsc out of the 'unsignedYahooMessenger.apk', and replace the one in the 'YahooMessenger.apk' you downloaded. No need to unzip/decompile it, just open with WinRAR or a comparable program, and drop it in. If the one you outputted is ok, sign it, rename it from 'signedYahooMessenger.apk' to 'YahooMessenger.apk' and drop it into an update.zip and install.

Sorry if I'm telling you a lot that you already know, just putting it all out there. Cheers, and good luck!

thanks so much for doing this

As I was saying I know your very busy. Im in now rush at all. Im still messing with it some to figure out why its acting like this on the DX. It looks great to me much better than the stock white. I hate when its that bright. I use it alot in bed so I like it to be less light in the room.
 
go into settings and set it to dark. BAM! blacked out! :biggrin: no worries, a lot of us didn't know that at first.[/QUOTE]

Wow. What an idiot. Thanks. Sometimes what I want is right under my nose. Good thing it wasn't a snake.

Been beaten down with strep throat (thanks to my wife :) ) I'll get back into this tonight or tomorrow.
 
The update really does nothing and due to other things going on I have decided to wait till an update comes out that improves the browser before I update the theme...

Sent just before I "Blacked Out"
 
hmmm

That must be why I couldn't update to the inverted version I had tried it on both my d1 and DX. just lost it entirely then. I went back to one from market on both phones and it works. Wonder if I have the older one in titanium backup then I can probly just drop the themed one ontop and have it work. Been working for alot of apps I have trouble getting going sometimes on the DX. usually dont have this issue on the d1 cause the system/app folder is fully unlocked for us on the d1, its glitchy on the DX.
 
The more I read responses like this, the more I never want to upgrade from the D1..lol All the phones coming out excite the nerd in me but, the complete control of the D1 makes me pause.
