how do we get borders around every app like el3ment did?

**VampireV** · 04-28-2011, 03:41 PM

usually use the masks under Telephony framework folder (its under the Bundles folder). have a look at one of my old themes like the simpsons one. You will see the borders are preset for non default apps under that folder

just wondering about my previous questions on the grey bar in photos and the wallpapers, anyone know? In addition to this I noticed in some themes people have managed to change the day/date on the calendar icon size and color, how is that done?

Thank you.

Could you elaborate for me on the answer you gave me about wallpapers? I wasn't sure exactly what you meant... I still can't believe there is not a thread on this yet...

**rististien** · 05-04-2011, 04:01 PM

Ok so I've asked elsewhere but now going to ask here *to note I managed to do this already somehow, without intending to but then somehow it reverted back and I have no idea what I did... HOW the hell do you get rid of the shadow on top of icons when you touch the icon? As I said I did manage to do it but no idea how and my memory sucks

Also, I can't quite figure out auto-skinning icons; I have the right files in the right location and it fixes icons I made myself to fit but does nothing to native icon images for most of the apps.... and also I made some icons and put them in theme/icons and named them according to the app name with both app.png and [email protected] but only some of them work... I am THIS close to having my phone themed to perfection aside from these things

**Fhsjaagshs** · 05-04-2011, 09:07 PM

U can't remove the icon shadow.

**rististien** · 05-04-2011, 09:20 PM

you say that but I did remove it. But I continued tinkering and that reverted whatever I did before I could investigate so try again......

Wow. What an extensive thread. But I'm still missing something.
I am trying to get the lockscreen working in my themes. I have
-A Concrete Iphone
-A Rusty Iphone
-A Simple Black and White
themes. I have SSH'd in and saved the lockbackground.png to lockbackground.jpg.
I still have my picture library lockscreen??
Can someone please help point me in the right direction. I would really appreciate it

Thanks
Sk37cH

**Fhsjaagshs** · 05-09-2011, 09:20 AM

Use LockBackground.html

Thankyou for your reply. I asume you mean I need to create a Html script that will essentially locate my lockbackground.jpg. Is this correct?
I not sure, but I wouldnt think just renaming the file extension would do anything.

Than you

Did you get this working. Im currently looking through this thread now for an answer. The only fix I found myself was to sync the Lockbackground.png with your itunes picture library. This is hardly ideal as you first have to enable the theme, then enable the lock background through iphone settings.
Any help would be much apreciated. At least I know Im not the only one having this problem

**Fhsjaagshs** · 05-09-2011, 11:49 AM

I'll try to make it.
