I'm trying to make a 9900 custom theme, a problem is that the APP screen background change to a white empty wallpaper when I made a custom background, attachment shows the problem. Help PLEASE! It made me a long time wish to have a custom theme on OS7

LoL! You noticed that, but not the folder issue? There's notmuch you can do, besides returning the panels.

Thank you for your reply, What do you mean "returning the panels"?
I think maybe its in the application-menu.svg, here's the cod:
<foreignObject id="menuGrid"
x="0"
y="21"
width="480"
height="339"
xlink:href="dummy"
requiredExtensions="x-object:/RibbonScreenManager">
x-object:/RibbonScreenManager
</foreignObject>
</switch>

Anyone has some answer or idea?

About the folder issue, I found that before you apply the theme, remove all the icons out of folders, and then apply the theme, they wouldn't disappear now. But it is not friendly I know.

you got two wifi indicators

The "folder issue" is a bug between the OS and custom themes...much like the later OS6 builds on 9650 had no applications visible the first time you went to the app menu.

Nothing a theme developer can do to remedy that situation, I'm afraid

Exactly! Everything out, or use universal search.

Thanks a million for all the reply！
But my question is about the App screen's wallpaper is just the simple white, whatever I've set that it shoud be a Custom wallpaper. Any help please!

This:


Once you've removed the panels from the theme, the wall on the app screen goes white. I'm not aware of any theme developer overcoming the problem.

Yet......


My point was, most people are pur off by the loss of folders, much more than the white wall.

Thanks so much for your reply BigBadWulf !
I've tried to make all the panels "Favorivtes", "Media" "Downloads", "Frequent" to show, checked them in the default theme, then went to my custome OS7 theme in 9900, it's also the white app screen.
I've seen cjh1311 in app world has the themes that overcomed the problem. You know it's so ugly to have a white app screen.

Maybe More and more"think, think, think... ..."

What did you do? Did you pack the bg image of app screen in your theme? I tried custom of 9360, it works just fine.9900 shoud be the same I assume.

[qwang]

btw, I got two wifi meters two, have you solved that problem?

add this to your indicators line

omit:wlanindicator


This will remove the duplicate wifi signal BUT, you will loose the hotspot indicator.
I add this with your existing wifi line ...It will only show the second signal as the HOTSPOT. It will not show unless in hotspot mode..

<image id="wlanindicator"
      x="165"
      y="2"
      width="65"
      display="none"
      height="25"
      xlink:href="x-object:/GridIndicators?area=4&amp;width=65&amp;height=25&amp;font-family=BBAlpha Sans Condensed&amp;font-style=plain&amp;font-size=25&amp;fill=fefefe&amp;specificindicator=:wlanindicator:&amp;align=center"/>

<set xlink:href="#wlanindicator"
        to="inline"
        begin="custom(mhs_enabled)"
        end="custom(mhs_disabled)"/>

This way it is only visible when hotspot is on.

thank you

So they put the wlan indicator in the grid ground just like the bluetooth, do you know how to control the bluetooth one? I always want to change the bluetooth indicator...

[molson0]

Sure, make the image you want to use and name it


"net_rim_bluetooth_banner-icons15x25.png"


keeping in mind bluetooth has 2 states. Connected & non-connected

Your png would actually be 2 bluetooth pics sized at 15X25 EACH so the png would be 30X25

thank you !!! Finally I can put the last missing piece to my theme. Btw, how do you know the correct name of those elements, just guessing?
If I put a pic named like that, all the bluetooth indicators on banner,homescreen,app menu would be changed,right? Eh...actually,I just want to change the one in the homescreen,is that possible?

I'm sure I've put my image in the APP screen BG, then I may have a try on 9360. ; )

Hey qwang!
I've tried on 9350, the app screen is right with my wallpaper.
All I've done is the same as 9900, could you please try it on 9900? Thanks a million!

is your homescreen wallpaper right?
I tried on 9900,the app screen wallpaper did show up,but is blocked by the white background of app list, so you can only see a little part of it between the app banner and the app list.i don't know how to make the white background transparent

on the other side,the home screen wallpaper, it's nothing, I believe the file name for homescreen wallpaper is different than the other devices and the code for app screen wallpaper may be different too.
