So here's my bootanimation I created. I've never really done one before, nor do I have much 'photoshop' experience either, so go easy on me! I truly have mucho respect for those that excel and are efficient with these programs.
I had some strange issues creating a transparent background for the red and blue version, so they have a full screen black background. Also, by not having transparency, I can save in jpeg format which is *MUCH* smaller, and noticeably snappier. (UOT who has this converted it to png)

Here it is in the OG green , but it has a white backgound and doesn't fill the screen...It's black on top and bottom, similar to a letterbox look.

A fellow enthusiast has customized this a little bit for MIUI, adding "MIUI France" logo at the bottom. Please see this post for more info.
That is pretty nice, any chance of a blue version?
Haha..that's tight.good job you should do one of enoms devil characters doing something.
Looks good, but since it's so long, it runs slowly the entire boot.

With my feeble photoshopping skills, I'm afraid not any time soon. It took quite a long time to get this one to look half way decent, and now I'm behind on other work (gotta get caught up on my statics homework, lol )

Well, I wish I were able to. When contacting the creator, I learned that the character was built, rigged, textured, lit and comped by a team of people. I doubt I could create anything nearly as good from scratch. Those that can have my sincere admiration.
At least I got it red, though

Hmm, it runs almost perfect on mine. For a 'normal' boot cycle (after the rom has been loaded, and dalvik all set up), it runs for one complete cycle slower, then on the subsequent cycles it speeds up. It's 112 frames long, which is certainly within a normal range for a boot animation. Just turned my phone off/on and it ran through a good 4 cycles.
Now if I stop the core to push a file into the system partition, it gets chopped when I start core again, but that's different.
Nice one, fits perfect for flavoured ice dark cherry theme on Enoms rom

I can run a simple batch file to recolor it if you'd like. It takes literally less than a minute for me to recolor this. I can make a new one if you'd like. For example, I made a blue one with a diffused glow for effect:

I like the green, too! Here's the first version I did that's in the original colors, and with a white background. **The white background does not cover the entire screen, there are black bars above and below**
And in a recovery flash file: OG-bootanimation.zip
I've changed the folder placement to /data/local/, as after reviewing AOSP, it looks like it checks there first anyway, so unless your bootanimation command has been altered. I'll update the Red version here shortly as well.

You're right it is easy to do a simple hue change. However, where I ran into difficulties was in the black background. For some reason, I had trouble introducing strange artifacts that only showed on the phone, not in the individual images. Here's a highly compressed/downsized example put into a gif:
But when I put it on the phone, it looks like this:
Had similar problems with the red version. I think it has something to do with how I changed the background, as I never really had too many problems with the original version. But since you got me started on it, I'll try to get it finished
Nice Work! looks good fellow Tulsan!!
I really like this. Keep up the good work. Would be awesome to have the green version in a black background.

Thanks. The green is my personal fav, too..I think it shows his texture, and 3D like qualities better.
Ideally I'd rather have a transparent background, which I would think would show as black. But having him on a transparency like that would make it easier to do other things later. I just haven't learned my way around the image editing stuff very well...but I'm learning.
I've got a couple other sections of video I *think* I might be able to isolate with some work. Some of this stuff if pretty tedious though (for me anyway). That android guy I put in for an avatar earlier... I had to reconstruct the right 1/3 of his head as it was covered by something else on the screen. And as long as I spent on it, I'm still not near as good as what the original creators did.
i just pushed the green version with white bg, it woulda been fine but then now the top 1/3 and bottom 1/3 of screen is black and the mid part is white

Oops, my bad...I guess I didn't really explain that. Yes, that's the correct display. The area of video that the base work was lifted from was a 16:9 aspect ratio, and our phones are like a 9:15 aspect ratio the other way. As that was my initial piece, I was more concerned with getting the animation smooth sized right. But after seeing it on the phone, I actually kinda like it the way it is.
I'll update the op so that folks are aware ahead of time. Work is planned for the green guy for sure...
and when everything smooth out you should add strobe lights for the robot to dance to or music notes... something in the background.. idk.. lol
am I the only one having issues installing this bootani?
I tried with AmonRa (1.8.0.1) with error "no installation script" or something like this.
Then I copied the bootanimation.zip file directly into /data/local
both 2 methods didnt work for me...
help me please...

Well, I'm not sure what to tell you. What rom are you running? I know one of the desire ports is putting it in /system/customize/ or something similar..can't remember.
Try pushing the file to your /system/media/ folder and see if that works...
Ths is really cool!
Thank you!

Hi,
I am about to embark upon changing the menu icons and screen touches that leave the green behind. Before I do I wanted to see if anyone had already successfully changed this FULLY rather than on just one screen and also one that works on the topaz. Any I have found so far either do not work or do a partial job.
Obviously if someone has done it already I would be keen to ive their work a try as this will be my first modding task and admittedly think I am starting at the deep end.
Also any advice or suggestions would be appreciated. If my work is succesful I will of course attempt to upload it for others to use
Thanks
CFC GUI is your friend, you can extract and replace all the graphics using it.
Which one(s) have you found that worked partially?
I have spent hours trawling through the various forums to find snippets from here and there, but in all honesty I'm a bit lost.
I found a 'T-Mobile' file which looks nice, but I have yet to try it on the device (because it hasn't arrived yet )
I will definitely be wanting to change away from green, so if/when you figure it out then please do let us (me) know how. Blue or grey is my target.
Here you go, green to blue with the attached CAB.
[UPDATE]
Changed all non-TF3D green highlighting/switches/buttons to blue also!
Due to CAB size, I've put it on my RapidShare account, no need to wait for download as it's been made a TrafficShare download.
Have left original version available for download for those who only want TF3D modified.

Enjoy!
Fantastic! Thanks hoosbude.
Sadly my device didn't arrive today as expected, so I'm still waiting. However, I shall look forward to trying your CAB and seeing what type of 'blue' you've provided.
Can you explain how you did it? What tool(s) did you use, and is it easy to do? Mostly I'm quite happy with TF3D, but I'd like to learn how to mess with the colours a little.
Yes, I have read and searched, and I got as far as finding Max TF3D Theme Maker - it looks a bit too much for what I need. Is this the way to go, or is there a simpler solution?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the cab. I will give it a try. admittedly I put the project on hold due to a cosmetic issue my phone picked up similar to this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=522813
So my motivation to start any projects will be gone until I either get a replacement or repair. Hopefully your cab will do the trick

I used CFC GUI to extract the graphics then used Photoshop to change the hue, then used CFC GUI to re-implant the graphics to the original format then made the CAB. It took me about 40mins to do from start to finish (I did alter 47 files! also I made the boot picture blue too as a bonus!!)
Cab appears to work great only thing i have noticed that is not blended into the blue touch colour scheme is the communications tab of the settings menu which still has the green slide bars. If you fancy changing that it would be perfect.
To answer the question somebody asked earlier about other similar things i tried there is one made by lexirae (cant find the link now) that removes the touch coloured panel on the front screen with a transparent touch, There was also one made for the globe but think it was for a cooked rom as it made my opera browser inoperable and a hard reset was needed.

Yeah I noticed that also, the graphics for that were not shown by CFC GUI so that's why they were missed!
If anyone knows which files they are in I'd be much obliged (although I will google it later when I have the time)
Think the file you are looking for is 471b0a55_manilla
It is labelled in CFC-GUI under settings SWITCH_ON
If I am incorrect and you have already looked at this then apologies

hoosbude, I worship you...
My TD2 arrived today and I'm loving it - for a device so seemingly similar to my Xperia, the Xperience is completely transformed...slick, quick and much more user friendly.
I love what you've done with the blue highlighting, which really sets everything off nicely (well, nearly everything - there's still the odd rogue greenie around such as the HTC task manager highlights, but I'll live with that).
Thanks so much, you don't know how much happier this makes me with my new toy.

I install your cab and my phone is very nice now, thanxxxxxxxxxxxxx !!!
The last "green touch", in my phone is on the screen where it ask for sim code (just after booting)... The "enter" case is still green... Could you do anything for that ?
If needed I can send you a picture of the screen, but, for the moment, I haven't any camera in my desk do that !
is there a lightgray version of this?

Thanks to everyone that helped and anyone that ever put an adb code, rom, theme, or other help on this forum. I just checked it works on Regaws and Damages latest
So only to save someone hours of looking around here's how I make a theme. first you'll need to get gimp,7zip, and avabox. Google gimp and 7zip and it will take you right where you need to go. You can get avabox right here at xda. Install gimp and 7zip. Unzip avabox in your c drive. Reboot. Now take whatever rom your going to be working on and unzip it using 7zip.
Using the now unzipped rom go to system/framework and copy framework-res and com.htc.resources to your desktop. Then go to system/app and copy Rosie, Htcdialer, htclockscreen,phone, and dialer to your desktop( If you didnt already know these are all apk files). Now right click on the apk files and extract them to your desktop. I like to put my extracted apks on one side of my desktop and my apk on the other side. open anyone of the extracted folders I'm gonna use com.htc.resources. Go to res/drawable-port-mdpi. You should be seeing alot of png files . Right click on common_app_rosie_btn_left_pressed.png and select edit with gimp. This is your left rosie button when pressed down. Using gimp change how you want this image to look like. If you right click on the image while in gimp and click image scale it will tell you what scale the image is and allows you to change the size of the image. Also knowing the scale of the image lets you take any image and scale it down to the correct size, rename it to the correct file and replace an image (you could have smiley faces as a rosie if thats what your into). So when your done editing the png files open up the unzipped apk file and right click on the same apk file scroll to 7zip and open as archive. Then in 7zip delete the file your replacing then replace it with the new image.then close both files now youv'e got two choices depending on how many apk your going to replace you can put it back in the the rom and resign it using avabox or you can push it threw adb. thats it any questions pm me and I'll try to answer them and update this thread.
nice to see you got it posted

Personally I don't care for it either, but I will keep a eye on what the OP does for Mods in the future.
I dont like to do the normal rosies but any requests?
A red and black glass blood splatter theme would be cool.
Red glass Droid launcher. Black themed dialer with red button presses (maybe some red specs on the black dialer buttons kinda like a blood splatter). Black glass no notification with red specs to the dialer. Clear lock screen with blood splatters/specs of blood. Plus red button press highlights for all on-screen button inputs. If you can do it, it would be totally awesome.
TrevE created a thread for Mods and Themes based Damage's new 2.1 ROMs.
MarksTheme_Taskbar_DamagedTrev.zip is found on the first post of the thread and would be ideal base to work off of for this. It already has red highlights and a majority of the stuff completed in it.

Ok I flashed jello. Time for some constructive feedback...
I like the draw down bar for the notifications. The notification icons need a transparent background to them to give them a clean look. The glossy look to the buttons on the launcher and dialer seem off... I can't put my finger on why, maybe the contrast between the gloss and the buttons need to be subdued. The red that the launcher buttons turn looks weird due to pressing a glossy button then it turns a solid color. The background for contacts on the dialer makes the contact names barely viewable.
The file is pretty big, 13 mb, wow. Maybe cut your theme into pieces to reduce size, plus people will be able to use pieces from your theme to mix and match with other themes.
Good job on figuring out how to theme all this out. If this got cleaned up it has potential to be a pretty sweet theme. Keep on digging in and seeing what works and what doesn't work.

Yeah i gotta figure out how to decrease the mb but as for the breaking it down thing it would take to much time. Actually I just thought about the 13 mb thing and if you think about it your installing 6 new apk files so that is probably why. I know i've got 108mb free space still on my phone
if you do a blood splatter theme i will be all over it!

Blue text on keyboard is from a mod I made with other theme. I thought I took that out but if u long press in text field an option will pop up select input method. Then choose second android keyboard. That has the red keys in pic on first post. BTW I hardly get any lag from this keyboard.

Hey boss, phenomenal work ... in my opinion, this theme is even better than Blue Echo. I did notice a couple of things, thought it might help ...
1) The "application selection" bubble is blue (the bubble that appears when you press on an application, forgive the noobocity but I don't know the official name). I had a feeling it could be a remnant of a different theme in the same light as the "blue keyboard".
2) The lock pattern color is the stock green. Its a small thing, but considering the astounding thoroughness of the color changes (remarkable, really, how detail-oriented you are) it stood out.
3) Finally ... and just an idea ... is it possible to make the addressbook names white instead of black? I realize it may seem a bit athematic, but it would improve the legibility substantially.
I don't mean to sound critical because, in my humble opinion, this is the best theme I've ever seen. The detail is astounding, really well done. I just thought maybe I could help with ideas for V3.
Keep it up boss!

1) The "application selection" bubble is blue (the bubble that appears when you press on an application, forgive the noobocity but I don't know the official name). I had a feeling it could be a remnant of a different theme in the same light as the "blue keyboard".
2) The lock pattern color is the stock green. Its a small thing, but considering the astounding thoroughness of the color changes (remarkable, really, how detail-oriented you are) it stood out.
3) Finally ... and just an idea ... is it possible to make the addressbook names white instead of black? I realize it may seem a bit athematic, but it would improve the legibility substantially.
I don't mean to sound critical because, in my humble opinion, this is the best theme I've ever seen. The detail is astounding, really well done. I just thought maybe I could help with ideas for V3.
Keep it up boss!

Hey thanks for the input.
I'm working on changing the text to white but its proving to be a pain in the ass. Also the blue bubble thing and keyboard will be fixed in next version
I will look and see what I can do about lock pattern. Trying to upgrade both this theme and blue echo at same time but expect something soon.
BTW if u long press in text field and choose input method and select second android keyboard ull love it.
Also if any one knows a way to change text to white in HTC contacts please help. I can change it globally throughout phone but really just want it changed in the one place.
white lines in clock
I was wondering if you have fixed the lines through the clock. This theme kicks all kinds of a$$, but that is kinda bothering me.
I love the Theme! I have been using it now for about a week.
I have a little feed back to help make the theme better. I know we can switch to the red keyboard by long pressing in the text field (thanks to your quick reply to a previous post), but when I switched to the red keyboard, I was dissapointed to see that there was no speech to text mic button anywhere on that keyboard. Is there a reason that it is not on the red keyboard, but is on the blue keyboard?
[SPLASHES & WALLPAPERS] shift's Customized Wallpapers and Splashes! UPDATED 11/12!
heyo fellow evo warriors!
given the influx of requests i've received for wallpapers and splash screens, i thought i'd extend a hand out for requests to the rest of the evo community. if you'd like to see some of my work, here it is:
evo wallpapers || splash screens || desktop wallpapers
=============================================
instructions to install splash screens:
if you have S-OFF bootloader via unrevoked forever:
rename .zip file to PC36IMG.zip
place in root of sdcard
boot into bootloader
select yes to update and reboot when prompted
rejoice at your brand spanking new, customized splash screen
????
profit
~~ OR ~~
if you want to flash via fastboot (android sdk is a required install):
move the splash screen file ([nameofsplash].rgb565) to your sdk/tools folder
power off device
boot up into boot loader (hold volume down key while pressing power)
navigate to "FASTBOOT" with the volume keys and press the power button
plug device in (you'll see "FASTBOOT USB" highlighted in red)
open a command window in windows (windows key + r then type "cmd.exe")
prompt to sdk/tools
now type this into adb window to install splash screen: fastboot flash splash1 [nameofsplash].rgb565
reboot.
rejoice at your brand spanking new, customized splash screen
????

thanks man! oh crap, i forgot about doing your mattedblues wallpapers! *facepalm* ..maybe for any future projects of yours, perhaps?
can you change the blue to red and format the size ?
Would love to try and get the more red/black img as a splash. If not, the other image is a bit larger which might be easier/better for a splash. Take creative license
Would also like a Droid Eye launcher pro icon... I want to think there is one out there but I havent found it.
Also, I really like the splash you made with the hand and the rasta colored smoke coming off it... would love to see that minus your name/logo (maybe you can tastefully hide it in the bottom corner or something lol) and replace it with the Droid Eye...
Ive exclusively used your splashes as they always seem to be really high quality it very clean. Keep up the good work

i'm linking the png since it's not compressed like the jpg i uploaded to the xda attachment server.
edit:
i noticed some pixelization on the image you provided. it looks like it's been blown up from a smaller set. if you want a heartrate style image, i can try to look for a higher-res image and modify it to be red. i can do that later tonight, if you'd like.

hmm.. i'll see what i can do, those are some sick images! as for the droid eye lp icon, i do have a pic of the eye. i'll work on them later tonight and post them up for your perusal.
also, thanks so much for the kind words about the splashes!
those were all for snap, but i can make something similar like that using that image for your setup. any specific stuff (words/mottos/tags) you'd like me to throw on there?

Yes that would be great if you can find something . But I love what you did with the other one , Thanks
Not looking for it to say anything in particular. If you want to hide "Voss" in there somewhere im ok with that, but the cleaner and simpler the better for my taste.
No rush on my requests, I am patient.

I have a small and meager request - a "Shift_i-fied" Jessica Alba wallpaper please yea! On second thought, it'd be even cooler if the pape had some MattedBlues style baby blue in it too. The best of both worlds <3

Personal customizations? Ummm.... hmmm.... I ..... dunno. Believe it or not, that's a hell of a question. After thinking about it, nah. Well WAIT - maybe if you could make it so like that it looks like she's rockin a set of turntables in her nightie AHAHAHAHAH! My oh my wouldn't that be grand? heheheh
OK back to reality - besides the MB customizations, no. I don't have any. I just like the way you make papes so I'll leave the artistic direction to yourself sir.
Ok, I'm finally posting a beta of my 1st theme. I have lots of time constraints so release/updates may be slower than others, but hopefully worth it. Also won't be doing any other version than 2.1.A.0.435 for now for the same reason, but I may if this goes over pretty well.

Bootscreen & Analog Click Widget
Wallpaper (will add to a 'pack' & delete image when there's more)
I have redone most of the animated .png's "from scratch" in Photoshop, including the 120+ battery icons, the spinners, "Connecting" call icon, downloads, etc. as well as a LOT of the static icons and .9.png's. So these icons will be unique to this theme unless someone likes them and ports them to another (feel free themers, but please give credit!). Bootscreen is from the interweb (sorry, I forget) & is not the ideal resolution but really "matches"...
Feel free to add suggestions or let me know what I missed or what you'd like to see.
Done: (aside from tweaks & missed bits)
-framework-res.apk
-framework.jar & android.policy.jar (w/reboot option and 100-step % battery- Thanks, MrRusch!)
-Conversations.apk

-SemcPhone.apk
-FriendPivotLargeUI.apk
-mediascape

-analog clock widget available (see attachment, installable apk)
-font available (see attachment, zip for xrecovery)
Working on:

_calum_ for the theme thread & other stuff, and also All themers- I learned it by watching you!
UOT Kitchen- made a few themes here and used some icons/images I liked out of them (x10 isn't supported natively there) also based my battery off of a "super circle"
Lord aLaL for a nice tut on making xrecovery zips
*reserved- just in case
can you plz share the app-drawer icon for the launcherpro?
i mean that droid-skull...
and by the way ... nice theme!
THX in advance
I like this theme but I'm using FreeX10 right now. This theme look like GreenGlow.
I think you can add the lock screen picture.
It's beautiful & fantastic... Although i'm on 2.2 & i can't use it, but i really loved it.. Are you thinking to port it for 2.2 also?

I will attach the icon in a few sizes. I made it for when the superuser app needed a new icon. Didn't win the contest but I still like it.

I figured I'd get compared to that theme. the resemblance is unintentional but I take it as a great compliment!
The 'glow' on mine isn't a part of the status bar, it's a shadow I tweaked. You can tell in the 1st pic where the notifications are down it moves

Thanks for the comment.
I have never even looked inside a 2.2 'rom' so I don't know how hard porting it will be but I have kept my images organized so hopefully it won't be too bad. I will definitely look into it once I have the 2.1 more complete.

First off, HOLY CRAP!!! Sir, nice theme.
And I don't think just because this is a green theme that makes it similar to the greenglow theme. This one has a more metallic look, and it's very polished and professional (not knocking greenglow here, it looks great as well).
And I think he thought you simply forgot to add a screen cap of your lockscreen, but it seems you are redoing it.
As for 2.2, I am using Free X10 and I've opened it up, the framework-res.apk looks very similar to 2.1, but the names of all the images are different, Sony renamed everything for their ROM, so you can copy/paste many of the images, but you will have to rename them all... considering how many there are... it will most likely take some time. As for the phone and messenger and some other apks, those will a little reworking, because they are slightly different from the Sony versions (mostly the messenger).
I would love to see a 2.2 port, because I am really impressed with this.
However, may I suggest perhaps changing the notification pull-down background, the chain link looks nice, but it seems a little busy and doesn't seem to fit the rest of the theme all too well, maybe a transparent dark green brushed metal look, something similar to the default background. But it's really just personal opinion here. I don't know if this is possible, because the background is usually tiled, maybe just a solid, transparent, dark green.
As for names, I suck at naming things, lol... But I get an industrial feel from this... maybe "Industrial Green", or "Industrial Hunter".
Keep it up, this looks beautiful.
The name
Hi there!
Even if I do not use the theme, you (who made it) deserve congrats. It is well made, beautiful and posh. As I have and love my luster white x10, some colors seem not to match it. Its is personal, I know. I would love having a brown/golden theme, or even a Violet one.
Again, congrats.
By the way it is, I would call it """THE CHLOROPHYLL""""
@bleached45: Thanks for the compliments, suggestions, and insight into 2.2. I may try to enlist some help to port it if it's too much... would definitely like to let you guys try it!
As for the notification pull-down, it is definitely out of place, I made it and have been using it because I like the way it looks in motion kind of a novelty.
maybe just a solid, transparent, dark green.

I have one like this already made for this theme! Will most likely release w/that.
I am also playing with doing a "perforated metal" pulldown.
I'll have to start a theme add-ons thread (maybe just 2nd post..) for the more "adventurous" stuff
@igoroak:
Thanks, I may look into doing different color variations if possible.
Cheers.
