I started porting some of the themes done in 2.x to metamorph by popular demand. This has many advantages over just using apks as these should be pretty standard across roms & they are easier to work off of. Id consider all of this experimental as I havent had time to test every rom/scenario so if something doesnt work please leave details on what rom & theme + whats broken. Nandroid first.
Please leave feedback if stuff works & Feel free to work off of these, post your own metamorphs with screenshots and ill update this.
To apply get metamorph from the market. Dump zip file in /sdcard/AndroidThemes/ Do not rename zip file. Run metamorph & apply all.
If you were running a previous non metamorph theme or you do not get all the intended updates try pushing a 'stock' com.htc.resources.apk & framework-res.apk to /system/framework/ (or whatever APK its tripping up on) from the original rom & trying again.

Hey TrevE I flashed the the Darkstar mod metamorph you posted in the other thread which is what I assume the same as the one you posted here. Just some more feedback, I noticed that the one thats on my phone is the normal Darkstar theme and not the mod version with the grey battery icons and what not. Applied it a second time to make sure. Also the stock espresso spits out an error about halfway through stating that it cannot be processed due to theme control file being invalid.

What APK was metamorph on when it died off? Did you try to apply the metamorph from inside launcher instead of having sense running? I had some issues inside sense. I applied the espresso one again and it seemed OK.

That was on just extracting the espresso zip. it died at 57% everytime and spat out that error and shutdown metamorph. I'll try running both from launcher instead.
Edit: Actually I noticed when I was about to clear defualt it says there is no default set. I'm running DCv2.05 btw.

The screenshot shows different indicator lights, but they're not in the framework-res directory.
Should be these files:
indicator_code_lock_drag_direction_green_up.png
indicator_code_lock_drag_direction_red_up.png
indicator_code_lock_point_area_default.png
indicator_code_lock_point_area_green.png

Do you know where they came from if they're not in this zip?

Id try to redownload + make sure you have ~30mb free on your sd card to extract to after putting the zip on.

I tried downloading it a 2nd time but I will again. I have about 90MB free on my SD
I also just downloaded homeswitcher to check but on DCv2.05 there is only Sense no launcher2 or anything else. Seems kinda strange cause I always remembered being able to atleast use the default Home on other roms before.

I dont think DC had it in it. You can just push this to /system/app/ its the launcher i hexed with 5screen home. If its failing extracting can you open the zip in winzip?

Thanks, interestingly even though my sd card said it had about 90MB free I extracted it on my pc and then transfered it to my phone which initially gave me disk full so I cleared some space and transfered it. Whats wierd is it only shows as being 17.6 MB
Font replacements for 2.x ROMs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6118436&postcount=6
your darkstar theme and blackice didnt work for fresh 2.0d :/
Got a question. Which file do I have to edit to change the font color of the text in the task bar? I'm working on a theme, but the white text doesn't work on a light background.
I was intially going to just post the results after a couple days of playing around with your metamorph themes and what worked and didn't. The only one theme that I got the best results out of was your Darkstar Mod them. Most of the team applied with a few exceptions. And I could never get the stock espresso to work it would always loop on com.htc.resources. I had minimal luck with MarksTheme. After a little bit of digging I noticed after comparing what was working with what wasn't as well as the original rom apks the folder structure was incorrect for some themes or they weren't in the right folder which explained why things wouldn't change. What I noticed thus far:
Darkstar Mod - HtcClockWidget: pngs are in root instead of /res/drawable-normal-mdpi
Darkstar Mod - WorldClock: pngs are in /drawable-mdpi instead of /res/drawable-mdpi
Marks Theme - com.htc.resources: pngs are in /res/drawable-mdpi/drawable-mdpi instead of /res/drawable-mdpi
Thats what I got thus far from examining the themes and just wanted to give you a heads up. I'm gonna fix them myself as realized how relatively simple it is to port to Metamorph. Hopefully you can look through yourself and fix anything else you find. Thanks though for giving me a reason to get into this a little bit more. Personally I'm still reluctant to actually try editing png's myself.
Edit: After a little more playing I made a stock Metamorph of Damage's Rom so I can revert back to. I found that just like you're stock espresso it would stay forever on com.htc.resources.apk. Just like you I extracted the stock apk's and put them in the corresponding folders and created a thm for it. I noticed that it wasn't frozen at com.htc.resources it just seemed to keep going forever and ever (+5min). My logical thought was it's trying to replace sooo many files in there that it's taking very long. After checking most Metamorph themes I realized they don't even change half of the files inside of com.htc.resources.apk so I removed all of them except drawable, drawable-mdpi, and drawable-port-mdpi tried again and voila it finished installing. (Note there is only 1 Metamorph theme that I found that changes drawable and drawable-port-mdpi everything else thus far is only drawable-mdpi)
Edit2: After putting the correct file structure and nandroiding back to a pre-metamorphed backup I was able to apply your theme and everything changed that should have changed without a problem. I'm assuming as well that the current themes will still work on the new DamageControl as the frameworks should still be the same from the previous version.

wondering if we can get some color changes to the contacts lists etc.....maybe some grey and black....or even godzons ported over to the new damage?
Clear Colored Powerbar:
Icons borrowed from Aloysius mod. Changed 'on' indicator to the stock green.
How do you just install the notification bar
Anyway to use MetaMorph to only install the notification bar on one of these themes? I like the different notification bars but want to leave the remainder of my Rosie Stock theme intact...
Any guidance would be appreciated.

You need to track down what files were modified in what apk's in order to create a metamorph theme. It's a pain to do it the first time around, but from then out on, it's much easier than incorporating the changed files into a new apk with every new rom.

Thanks!!!
OK guys here is the deal, I wanted to create a theme that combined the status bar of this theme:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...eme.motoblur.free&feature=more_from_developer
with the icons of this theme (because the moto ones are fugly) :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thomassafca.theme.touchwiz.free&hl=en
So what I came up with is called motowiz
Installation instructions:
1. Make sure you are on a CM9 based rom that has the T-Mobile theme Chooser installed
2. Move the apk to system>app
3. Change perms to rw-r-r
4. Reboot
5. Apply theme (it'll say something about not being compiled right, just hit apply anyway)
Note: It must be installed manually because its not signed, idk how to do that.
Features:
TW4 icons
Motoblur4 status bar
4G icon instead of H
