(Request) Metamorph icon hancent sms - Nexus One Themes and Apps

All is in the title.
Thanks.

+1 black would be sweet! I already requested this from the dev.

unless the standard disclaimer has changed, Metamorph does not work on market apps.

there are morphs for HelixLauncher2.

And where did helixlauncher originate? Here on xda.
Look through the forums. market apps are themed by xda members, not the app devs, and not morphed ( and as such probably unauthorized, by the app dev. May be I dunno)
Helix is an exception, not the rule, because it started here.

Hi there guys..
I sent an email to Handcent creator.
I am a Moderator at XDA developers.
Hello, BTW
We are wondering, since it's your app, if you would give XDA permission, to switch up your icon on our Nexus phones???
It is a public forum, this is why i'm asking first.
Not that it i hard for us too do, just would like permission first.
BTW, love your app
Thanks for your time...hopefully hear from you soon.

What I am failing to understand is this: if all you are trying to do is change the application icon, can't you just use BetterCut?

You just killed all the fun in this....Thanks

Are we trying to change the color of the original icon? Or change the icon altogether?

Not to a> change it in the app drawer and b> change the widget (which uses the same icon but overlays the # of unread texts on it).

Would love to see different colored Handcent widgets...let's hope the dev gives us permission.

Handcent Popup, why cant u theme ??

u can theme everything with handcent which i love except that boring grey popup. The popup on the chompsms application is so much nicer i wish the handcent one was more like that. I have tried chompsms but i keep getting a network error when people send me a mms saying that it couldnt be downloaded even though it was. Handcent u can customize a little more within the application. I just love the chompsms popup, need that for handcent.
what can u guys come up with?
anyone??????
Send your request to handcent themselves. I think we could see it in a future update of handcent.
no repsonse from them ... u want something done .. come to xda .. haha
still nothing on this ?
how exactly do you want it to look..... i could maybe play with it, i just never themed an apk before. dont think its any different from theming anything else i guess.....
you can theme the pop up I have them themed on my handcent to black with a blue border. You need to change the pic inside the apk though. There is no option for it.
i am looking to make the background a semi transparent black ....
having trble resigning an apk .. so i didnt try messing with the pngs in this file ..

if you use 7zip, you don't need to resign it, you don't even need to extract the file. you moddify inside the zip. if you know wich png file to mod, let me know and i'll do it for you. or if you already pulled it out, send it to me, i'll mod it and insert it to the apk.
I am definitely interested in this...

If you like it PM me and I can send it to you. I don't think the moderatos will allow me to post it.
woow that does look good but i really want my theme to somehow match the nextheme.. so i wanted all glossy black and green button or something like that. Thanks for your offer though

Im fairly sure you're allowed to post themed apps as long as there not private/paid apps (eg, Swype, most games, etc )

I'll keep an eye on this thread.
Working on it now, looking good so far too! Once I sign it I will post a screenshot here! If it works, that is.
Not sure why but When I zipped the files back it's smaller than the original. I Looked in every folder and nothing has changed. I push the signed apk and it will not show up as an app. I tried to install and fails. Here are the images if someone wants to try it out. I'm not an app maker so clueless what's going on!! Facebook app didn't do this so dev must have encoded something? I have also themed the search widget, google voice widget, power widget, and the Browser black and no issues!!!! Help
I wish I know how to do this so I could help... I randomly try it myself and got stuck at application not installed after I zip it back up

Change sense mail icon and have it display unread messages?

So im able to change the stock sense mail icon using desktop visualizer but then when i receive an email it does not display a 1 over the icon. I do not use email notifications as i get many emails through my exchange account throughout the day and dont need to be notified but i like having the unread number on my icon. Is there any way to have a custom icon and have it display then number of unread messages over top of it? Thanks!
Anybody....
sorry bro im pretty sure that it is possible but its going to take alot of time for one to find out how to do this and they require dev skills that i dont have im just a flasher/donator... not trying to be rude in anyway but i dont think someone will want to take the time to find out how to do this... who know someone might have already done this and shared it over the internet but you just need to look for it...

Unfortunately im in no way shape or form a developer. I have a good understanding of things but dont come up with my own mod's or tweaks. I would be more than willing to do this myself if i knew how.
i would be more than happy to assist you with that. give me the icon you would like me to replace the stock one with. and just so were clear, you are talking about the green bubble on the mail app right?

Correct the green unread mail count that appears over the icon. Icon is attached. I greatly appreciate your help with this!

ok. do you want this as the app icon or as the bubble? just curious because that would cover most of the icon.
I would use the icon as a shortcut for the mail app. The unread count can be smaller if that is possible. I really appreciate this and will definitely donate when completed.
try this out. flash it via recovery.

Luckily i did a nandroid backup before attempting to flash. The file would not flash as it gave an error in ra. I toggled sig verification and still got an error. Afterwards phone wouldnt boot past splash screen and had to restore nandroid.
That's horrible. 8/

You need to either flash a rom like Coredroid or cook something up in the uot kitchen. Not sure if there are any metamorphs floating around, but I don't think so.

@eyahl... maybe he's asking to change the background for the app drawer, and not the wallpaper...? If you look at the attached pic carefully, you'll realize its not the homescreen, but the app drawer, which has probably been modified in whatever garish looking ROM that is...
Although the other possibility is that the app drawer is completely transparent, in which case your suggestion is perfect . But i doubt that, because you can't see any other homescreen elements through the background, which would have been visible if the app drawer had been transparent (clock, other widgets, etc), so i think my hunch above is correct. (Also, I can't believe that the OP managed to flash an entire custom ROM without having the slightest idea regarding changing the wallpaper...wouldn't that be something!! )

Well, I've seen a lot things here I couldn't believe..
But I think you are right.
Anyways, changing the app drawers background is not that easy if it's not featured by the ROM.

It's some Chinese ROM, most probably from the GoApk forum.
yes, i'm asking is the background of the Application panel, here is the link of the rom, it is a chinese rom , but with multi language.

You could use another launcher. Also try alt app draw (search the forum)
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
yeah you should stick with well known roms where you can get support, but there is a problem that needs to be solved so try pressing menu from within the app drawer to see if anything pops up , or it could be somewhere in the settings, it has to exist somewhere, if not consider another launcher

Look for "Custom background app drawer", and follow the steps given.
