Bringing Holo Theme from Android 4.1 to 1.6 and above.
- You should clone git repo, init and update submodules:
git clone git://github.com/ChristopheVersieux/HoloEverywhere.git HoloEverywhere
cd HoloEverywhere
git submodule update --init
You also may use git GUI programs
-
Import HoloEverywhere from root folder and ActionBarSherlock from contrib folder into Eclipse
-
Add HoloEverywhere project as library into your project (Properties/Android/Library/Add)
-
Add next theme declaration:
android:theme="@style/Holo.Theme.Sherlock"
in your application manifest Example:
<application
android:name=".Application"
android:icon="@drawable/icon"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/Holo.Theme.Sherlock" >
Also you can use Holo.Theme.Sherlock.Light for light theme and Holo.Theme.Sherlock.Light.DarkActionBar for light theme with dark action bar.
- Extend the Activities from com.WazaBe.HoloEverywhere.sherlock.S***Activity
Example:
public class MainActivity extends com.WazaBe.HoloEverywhere.sherlock.SListActivity { ...
Also you should cast view to with the same name from package com.WazaBe.HoloEverywhere.widget, if possible. This, for example, ProgressBar and Spinner.
