Was messing around, I finally got the transparent to work. Still working on the dailer also. ;)

Thanks To ldrifta, and the new beta 2.5, i wanted to do something different.

Install at your own Risk: framework-res.apk
Flashable zip:Transparent.zip

I found this out when doing the ICS contacts, only way the background in the contacts will change if you do the tut I wrote with the mybackground.png is if you go into the styles of the contacts and towards the bottom you'll see a "contacts theme" line and at the end of it it says Theme.Light you need to change it to Theme.Black

That is if you did the tut, if you found a different way, youll need to figure out how to change Theme.Light to MAYBE Theme.Transparent (doubt that will work tho)

i had added <item name="windowIsTranslucent">true</item> in styles, and made another transparent .img and inverted it, edited it with gimp. and i change a few other color codes to make it semi transparent instead of #ffffffff use #00ffffff or @55ffffff for example. %100 transparent would render it useless. :D

yeah that was me lol, but thats was strange it erase your contacts? try re sync and see if it comes back.
 
Yeah I've noticed some frameworks well delete your contacts and accounts and some won't. Not sure why.
 
its no biggie i had all my stuff backed up this morning since im on a mission to fix my native screenshot.

edit: well got my screenshot working again thanks fuzzy and nuttz and a few others i kanged some of ya modded apks and swapped them into a rom i was using but forgot to back my fonts and boot animation other than that everything is jiffy. i really love that transparent modded framework that would be a cool to make a rom based on tranparency,if u get to mod the mms.apk let me know i really wanna try it as well! keep up the great work!!

Make the switch bro zvd is the shitzzymm :thumbup: plus the goody are there too go ahead make it an afternoon project
 
Another thing i do is download the apk files i want to be added to the system and update all the apk from the store and place them in the .zip before flashing, that way i'll be ready to go from start.

But another way to add all of your apps,call log, sms and all, just backup your rom than flash the rom of your choice than reboot into recovery and go to advance restore and restore just the data, and bingo.

wow see no one has ever shared that with me before great tip i like that!!
 
speaking of backup before doing this where can i find the old nandroids to delete since now im on zvd and no longer need those that were on zvb?
 
well im up to date with everything but this mod still wont work on my phone not only did it delete my contacts it also deleted my google account on my phone. then when i tried to add my contacts and my google account that was impossible it wouldnt let me. then none of my apps would open. so dunno just got some bugs to work on. but it looked great. My advice for any1 wanting to try this back up your framework-res.apk just incase u run into same prob i did.

Strange!!!:confused: I will look into it, also have you flash any theme than use this or no? Sounds like you have the same kind of esteem pg and some others have, they dont like push things.

and you did upgrade to zvd using the LG Update Tool to udate from zvb to zvd?
 
no themes. stock number 2 beta 3 and yes i used that zvd tool took me about 27 min to install it.
