¤¤ [Theme] Smooth Red v1.2 [10/30] [MIUI 0.10.29] ¤¤ [READ OP]

NOTICE: This thread will no longer be updated! To get the latest updates, visit the new thread here!
This is a custom theme I made for the MIUI ROM. I'm in no way a fan of the stock orange colors Android chooses to use, so I did some work of my own.
Please do not repost (or port & upload) my work without permission; do not claim any of my work as your own; I've put a lot of time into making this what it is today. Before doing anything questionable, ask yourself how you would feel if someone took credit for your work. Thanks for understanding.
¤Changes:
- Almost all orange changed to red, including highlight text.
- Completely custom, visually appealing UI.
- White pulldown menu rather than the off-white standard.
- Themed system apps.
¤ If you have any suggestions or improvements, please let me know! Any input is appreciated.
This was built to work on HTC Incredible and Desire. If you want a port, request one. May work on Evo 4G.
¤Download:
•v1.2 - Minor tweaks, rebuilt using 0.10.29 English source.

Screenshots:
I'll post some when I get around to it.
¤¤¤ As a way of saying thank you, it would be a big help if you guys would use my Dropbox Referral Link to make an account [real or fake] so I can keep hosting files for the community; it's filling up rather quickly! ¤¤¤
Enjoy!

Liking it so far! I noticed that the top bar of the sms app is still green, though.
Question: How do I go about installing the themed LP? I already have LP installed, and don't have the option of uninstalling it in the app manager. It only allows me to uninstall updates. I tried to use root explorer to delete the LauncherPro.apk from system/app and then replace it with the one you provided, but that didn't work.

will this work with 9.30

I guess red won out thanks for doing all these MIUI themes!!

As it well should have.
I'm seriously tempted to overhaul everything now and flash this theme.

email
What is k9 email? it will not let me install it from file manager on phone

Will be uploading the 0.10.22-compatible release shortly.

pictures please.

Updated using n_i_x's 0.10.29 English framework. Enjoy!

I don't have time right now, as I don't even use my red theme. I use NuBlu- it matches everything perfectly. I may end up dropping support for this one, not sure. It looks pretty much the same as the NuBlu & Smooth Green screenshots, just darkish red instead of green or blue.

I'm using the Red version, as I like red/black more than blue/green and black. Please don't drop support for this. I'd love to have everything themed for red eventually...

Thread moved here. Please follow that thread for comments and the latest updates!
Update: Builds for 0.11.05 have been posted for Incredible and Evo in the new thread!

[APP] Gingerbread Themed DX KB for 2.1

Intro/Warning
I did not originally create this keyboard. It is a re skinned and modified DROIDX keyboard with full multi touch. Originally started for use on the Fascinate, it seems that this should work on other phones running 2.1 and thought I would share it with the rest of you. I am not responsible if you brick your phone flashing this. Flashing this will replace your original DROIDX keyboard if you have it installed already. So far I am aware of it being tested and working on the Fascinate and the X10.
You can find the downloads at the original post (so duplicate files aren't uploaded) and the latest information as that post will be updated regularly. There are two version of the keyboard, one with normal DROIDX sized keys and then one with Gingerbread sized keys.

[REQ] HTC_IME mod for AOSP on qHD devices

I would love to offer any help I can to make this mod a reality. So far, I have gathered the following links that will surely be helpful in making this mod.
There are many users on the different individual rom threads, especially in senseless and aosp/cm9 roms, who are requesting to install HTC_IME (Touch Input), as it is the best input option around for some languages. I can attest firsthand to the fact that the Chinese handwriting input is by far the best handwriting input available for android (HTC is a Taiwanese company), so please don't suggest that everyone who wants htc_ime just go and download some other keyboard. They really did a good job with it, and people want to use it on AOSP!
The work done so far:
Jonas made the mod for gingerbread and devices with lower resolution screens. There is a lot of information about it here and links to downloads. It works on non-htc android devices.
http://www.linux-wizard.net/2011/02...c-ime-keyboard-under-a-non-htc-android-phone/
Original HTC_IME mod thread by jonas. The last page or so of the thread is full of posts of people saying please make this mod for ICS/qhd. So far, no one has done it...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=624416
This is a HTC_CIME mod for qvga screens. You can see in the screens that it works on MIUI and with multi-language support. This seems like a very good lead, as it may possibly work on our device if scaled up!
http://www.miui.com/thread-109295-1-1.html
A way to get touch input back into virtuous inqusition rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462460&highlight=with+libs
And finally, from our very own device theme forum, there is of course the package done by MichaelM. I think this is going to be our best shot at getting this working in aosp roms. I triead flashing the file "with libs" (should include multi-lang) on Vorbeth's rom, but it just continuously FCs with u select touch input (but touch input does show up!).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1384640
As I said, I am willing to learn as much as I need to to help make this mod, I just need someone with a bit more experience than me to offer some help! Can someone please give even a brief overview of how to do this. Do we need to run logcats to find out lib dependencies? I'm sure the whole process can't be all that difficult (well, one can hope!).
Thank you in advance, sensation community!
p.s. if I forgot to give credit to anyone else who has done work on htc_ime mod please forgive me. Post the info in this thread if you find it so we can get this going!

2 things, 1, I would love to see this mod happen, I've gotten used to the ics keyboard but would still love the HTC one. 2, if possible, the latest HTC_IME keyboard would be best in my opinion because I love the swipe gestures that you can turn on and off without actually using the Swype keyboard because the Swype keyboard isn't something I am entirely fond of anymore

latest is usually best! sounds good to me.

I would love to see that... I am starting to like CM9, but the keyboard just isn't good enough no matter which one I try... I will try gimpsta.com to create one and hopefully will have it working

good luck to you, sir!

BUMP! I really wanna see this happen too! But maybe we are looking at it from the wrong angle? I'm no dev, not in the slightest, but the HTC_IME that comes on the stock sensation is already qHD formatted. Would it be possible/easier to port jonasl's mods to the newer HTC_IME rather than trying to scale up the old one and fix it to run on ICS?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1844512
a MOD for HTC IME on QHD resolution is out.
Now all we need to do is to put CIME back to it.

{HELP} Interactive Help Forum!{TUTORIALS} Where questions are encouraged!

Many very accomplished Devs, themers and modders are available and ready to help others. With that said, this is an open invitation for anyone to post and ask for help or advise on how to do anything Android related. There is a wealth of knowledge here on XDA, and I believe that it should be shared.
NOTE***Most of these tutorials are for sense devices, but would love to see this become a thread for everyone.
NOTE***If you have a mod tutorial that you would like linked in the OP, pm me with the tutorial and I will link it.
A few easy rules to follow......
This will be a friendly forum, with no flaming for asking questions. Without someone asking questions, there simply are NO answers.
This is not a thread where someone will do everything for you, it is intended to teach. So get your pencils ready.
Please make sure you show respect to those that have helped you, after all, they don't have to. Hitting a THANKS is sufficient.
To start things off here are a boat load of tutorials that my friends and I have compiled that are very helpful, as well as links to tools that are commonly needed. I will add more tutorials periodically, so check back often.
All these people are to be commended for their efforts in helping others become better devs, themers and modders. I personally have learned a ton from all of them.

It will as long as people keep asking for help.

I need help filling this forum with tutorials. I think fern and silver are working on an inverted MMS tut for sense 4.0. Got anything for us Mr. Tomato? You always have something good in the pipeline.

Hope this gets a sticky.
