GOT IT!

@F2Thak

ok, so when i use your script to install the theme, it doesnt work out correctly.

but when i unzip and take the folder with the meegotouch folder and index.theme file and copy those to the /usr/share/theme file, then i can use the theme customerizer and switch it and it works fine.


i am not sure how to get it to differentiate the colors though, they both say "Faster Darker Better Theme"



as a side note, i have a black n9, and this looks great with the black only. but i have been using the cyan case and i think it would awesome to come up with a matching cyan and magenta, just like they did with the windows phone devices.

the blues kinda clash.

but i think that better than the script is to use the theme changer...which i had to poke and prod to find, and then either write a script to put the correct files in the themes folder or give directions on the first post with the download link to the theme changer.


also, on the blue, in the standby screen, the clock is green.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Theme v4.7 (11/1/12)
 

thank you for posting, but the pictures are too hard to see.

i was able to get the change to work ad the theme changer to see it, but how did you get it to show the different colors so that you knew which one it was going to pick?

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Theme v4.7 (11/1/12)
 

and you must renamed in index.theme Name=Fater Darker Blood Orange Better Theme

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Theme v4.7 (11/1/12)
 

sorry I can explain everything,but only in German

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Theme v4.7 (11/1/12)
 

youre doing fine. thanks.

i was able to change that file with no problems. now it is showing.

i am looking for the thread with the green color for the standby clock to change the color to cyan.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Theme v4.7 (11/1/12)
 

now better to seeAttachment 24453

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Theme v4.7 (11/1/12)
 

No ones ever requested a colour, so Ive just done Red, Green, Blue. Was going to do White too.... but.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Theme v4.7 (11/1/12)
 

i figured out where to change the color for the standby clock.

so let me see if i have the right color this time. i am rebooting right now.

if so, everywhere there is that blue you used...this color could be used.

accept that something would need to be figured out for the bubbles.

UPDATE>>>>


this color is a good match for the cyan. it is called dark cyan #009C9C

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Theme v4.7 (11/1/12)
 

what is the color code that you used for the blue?

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.0 (12/1/12)
 

how do i remove some of the theme folders that were created in the /usr/share/themes/ directory with terminal?

i cannot change the root directories at all with winscp or filebox.


EDIT:

i got it.

rm -rf location/

cleaned it all up now.


you have done a great job on this m8. thanks. ;)

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

Followed the instructions and clock is still broken for me. After the install restart I have also found that the original theme folder has been removed so I have to copy it back over to uninstall. Further more all my password for my accounts have been lost so I will have to re-enter them all.

Is it worth trying to reflash my N9 to get this to work?

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

just updated the colors to the 5.2 that i have been working on.

what do you think?


also, it seems the transitions of 5.2 are a bit choppy.

also, look slike the documnts background was missed.

it is still white wiht a grey font now.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

Report :
First installation after reflash, failed.
Then ssh into it, put folder back in again
(since after installation the folder will self-delete?)
, and use reapply.sh, still failed. Reboot.
Again ssh into it, put folder into directory again, this time use install.sh for the second time. Error messages shown, (can't rename etc...)

BUT, it succeeded at my second attempt :eek:
THANKS FOR THIS WONDERFUL THEME!! :cool:

as images shown below, some of my other mods :P
How do you like the chalkboard + wooden frame theme?

Btw,My dropN9 has become Captain America color theme (seems rather cool ? blue+red)
~LOL!!

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

ok i've got it to work at long last

1) Install the theme using the install.sh file
2) If you get a theme with no dark backgrounds and only change in colours of tabs do the following:
- Change to blanco theme using Themechanger
- Log in using winscp using root account
- Copy "meegotouch" folder from desktop directly to "/usr/share/themes/fdb-original/" , click Yes to All when it comes to replacing files
- Now change back to FDB - original and all should work fine.


Thanks F2thak for the brilliant work and effort put in the theme.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

another confirmation here, somehow account auto save will be disable. It has something to do with CSS file overriding the default one? It should be an easy fix, i replace my Nokia lock screen CSS file too.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

Older versions scripts have messed up original files. v5.2's scripts should be right. The easy way to fix is reflash. You can manually restore too.

Urgent f.d.b
 

IS there a posibility, to add JUST the meego booting image, where di I have to restore it?
thanks, and then some script to do it from terminal because filebox don't let me just copy here:/home/user/MyDocs/original/booting.png
/usr/share/themes/blanco/meegotouch/images/system-services/
rm -rf or this line: -f /usr/share/themes/blanco/meegotouch/images/system-services/booting.png
/usr/share/themes/blanco/meegotouch/images/system-services/booting.png.orig
cp I have converted the Install.sh from F.D.B to install.txt and extracted those lines. but explain me just how to add the Meego booting.png to this folder

well I did this: cp /home/user/MyDocs/booting.png /usr/share/themes/blanco/meegotouch/images/system-services and I think it was installed as boot image.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

I must be a total idiot coz I can't get all flavours to work properly. The last version I was able to apply properly was 4.2, and not another one since.

I've tried all suggestions but the backgrounds come up wrong and I can't make a phone call because the call-UI won't come out.

Good to see it's working for others though.

Time to reflash again. :)

Hope a version comes out that would work for me.

Keep up the good work guys!

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

What I meant is there is a folder contains all css files (fdb) that overriding default ones, is it possible that one of the css files wipe the account user/pass save ?

I couldn't find the correct file, but I do manage to change the lockscreen clock/date setting to suit my needs :)

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

v4.3 to before current scripts were either had wrong syntax or scripts messed up original files, so nothing really works... Need to restore all original files then install v5.2.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

I used the Nokia Software Updater to re-install (is that the correct way to re-flash or should I be doing something different?) but that keep a lot of old setting around (I thought it wiped everything clean) so I used the built in clear all setting function on my phone which cleared all my user stuff and reset it back to day one.

I then enabled installation of none store software and then developer mode. Restarted, copied FBD-original over, installed it, restarted and everything seemed ok, I could even open up the clock and set an alarm but as soon as I pressed save for my alarm the clock application closed and every time I try and use it it opens then closes straight away.

Terminal also has an issue with the pre-defined commands not having a good background colour to contrast them on so it is very hard to see and the lock screen clock is all pixelated and unreadable.

I really wish to use this theme but I think I am going to have to face it that it is just not going to happen for me. :(

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

Over a week ago I was told my Themes aren't compatible with PR1.2.

It was hard enough before that...

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

yup. I installed 5.2 after a fresh flash. still couldn't get it to work though.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

I did this; I just erased the call-ui folder and now it works, also I have mixed the 3 themes in one, because I wanted the red one, but also the green style on messages so I mixed it, xD, but well at the end I just prefered the booting image, and change the colors, I'm working again xD!!!! super!!


Can somebody tell me how to change the color of the clock in lockscreen, THANKS

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

i have created a new version. i call it cyan...if you have a cyan n9 device, you should like this. the theme matches the color scheme very well.

current version is 1.2

you can download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/ntc8cp.../cyan-v1_2.rar

in order to create a non-visible folder so that all the pictures/icons do not show up in my media gallery, i created a folder in the MyDocs are called ".themes"

very simply, if you have the theme changer:

if you know how to ssh, then just add the unzipped folder named "cyan-v1_2" to the /usr/share/themes folder


if not, then do the following after you have installed the themechanger:

1. connect your device in mass storage mode
2. create the folder called .themes (note that it is important you have a period (.) before the themes.)
3. transfer the unzipped folder called cyan-v1_2 to that folder from your computer.
4. disconnect your device

5. open terminal and root. (devel-su/rootme)
6. type the code as below
7. close terminal and open theme changer
8. select the cyan colored icon that states the ver1.2.
9. reboot.


@F2thak

feel free to add this to your colors.



if anyone finds some issues with colors, please post a screenshot of what needs to be colored correctly and i will try to fix it.

i used the v5.2 packages in this and added and changed the theme color settings.

enjoy.


EDIT: i have attached a picture to give an idea of the feel i am trying to get for it.

this shows the standby screen fonts matching the phone. only icon not in cyan color on the standby is the missed call. it is still red.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

i think i understand your spanish...

i have 2 black devices but have all the original color cases.

it still looks good in black...negro.

but is strikingly better with the blue casing.

i will eventually make a magenta one as well after i figure all the files to change. it is....painstakingly slow. each color has about 170 icons colors and there are about 19 of them!

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

he said his phone is black, but he wanted the theme in green, he is going to look how he can do this.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

anyone figure out how to fix the forced landscape mode to get it to rotate again without flashing?

i was having no issues at all with this with all my testing on my cyan until i did the sh install rather than just transfering the files to the themes folder and then using the theme changer.

:/

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

you must delete the theme!And you can copy the theme with winscp again!Than works perfect

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

youre missing
/etc/sensorfw/sensord.conf.d/90-sensord-default.conf
there should be a backup in same folder, 90-sensord-default.conf.orig

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

there is no back up there. i copied the file from another device and stuck it into MyDocs.

then

it errored an scp: can't stat '...

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

got it.....ty.

i knew i would not have to reflash.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

@F2Thak

what did you adjust to get the background of the clock to change. seems no matter what i do, it will not change to what i want and stays the default.

almost have a nv1.4 cyan available. takes forever to change 172 icon file colors per folder!!! i wish there was a faster way than 1 at a time!

also, the phone icon is way too big and i have found that i cannot see the incoming caller phone number...so it does not have a picture associated with it, i could not tell who was calling.

so i changed it to 200px.

Re: F.D.B. (Faster, Darker, Better) Themes v5.2 (12/1/12)
 

ok...

here is my contribution!

@F2Thak

thank you for all the ground work on this. just making this has taken HOURS...and i did very little coding as you did.

couple things that may be easy fix if you could guide me:

1. for some reason i cannot get the bacground on the documents to be black. maybe you could guide me to where to make that happen.

2. i cannot get the spinners to be cyan/sky colored. i have changed the icons...but it doesnt happen.

3. i would like to change the opening nokia splashes to match the one that shows when it is shutting down. i have modded the splashes, but the opening is still the grey color.

4. i would also like to adjust the opening video. not sure where to find it.




et al,

this is cyan v1.4

i presume that this is about 98% complete...so it may just go to v1.5.

i will also be making at least 2 others along with this. 1 that is going to be cyan light (only will have the dark bars actually be Cyan) and one for the magenta users out there.

having all the differe colored cases that are factory, this theme, imo, is really nice with the cyan phone.

i changed a couple things from the constant file and the phone ui.

1. some color codes so that instead of having orange/purple, etc. it now matches pretty much all the way through.

3. i changed the phone avatar that shows when calling/recieving calls so that you coule see a bigger avatar still, but still at least be able to see a 10-digit phone number for those that do not have pictures or are not in the contacts list.

hope you guys like it. again...thanks BIG TIME to the developement of this base foundation for this and the theme changer.

if you notice some icons not showing or not matching, please let me know and i will fix it up.


enjoy.
