Guys,
I've found a really cool blue theme on the evo forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788214 That I think would be cool on our phones but I know nothing about theming and am hoping some of you seasoned veterans out that could lend me a hand some tutorials or something.
I have gotten permission from the author RUJELUS22
I want to learn how but i'd even be willing to give a good donation to anyone who could port it and if not thats ok as well if some of you could point me in the right direction being new to android i dont even know where to start..
Any help would be appreciated getting this project going...
Thanks in advance.

I will have it ported in about 20 mins.
Done. Here is my port of RUJELUS22's Blue EVO Rom to Virtuous 3. I have not tested it as I do not have that ROM installed but it should work. Please make sure that you do a nand backup. The only thing that I added was the Gmail icon I turned blue and when you get email in Gmail that notification I turned blue. Other than that all credit goes to RUJELUS22. The files that I modified are all zipaligned and signed. I also added a nice blue circular battery mod.

Hey thanks a bunch!! Downloading it now.
Looks like one of the apk's from that ROM is causing it to reboot. I installed Virt 3 to check it out. I will have to mess with it when I get home.
ok I installed it waiting for it to boot up, running a adb logcat and watching.
its been at it for a few minutes now going to give it a few more before I restore my backup.

Ya there is one of the apk's that came with the evo theme that is causing it. I am going to figure it out now that I am at home.
Ok I have fixed the reboot issue. I have also added the blue signal bar. Enjoy!!

Just got a chance to install the second version, got a boot loop but i have pieces of other themes installed so I'm going to restore back to when I first installed Virt. 3. and try to apply it again.

Now that is weird. I did a full clean install of Virt 3 and then flashed the theme and I had no boot loops at all. I am going to do it again as I am back on my other ROM and see if it bootloops.
Ok I just did a full clean install of Virt 3 and the newest theme file and no bootloops. I had to redo some of the HTC apk files as that it was was causing the boot loops. Make sure that you are using the latest theme file that I linked.
***Edit***
And as soon as I said that it does the boot loops as soon as I tried to download from the market. I will test it more.

Virt 3 Blue Theme Fixed!!! 10-02-2010
Ok I finally have it fixed. No more boot loops Enjoy!!!! I did have to make one change. When you drag down to see your notices. I had to change that background image because everything was showing up black and you could not see your notices unless you clicked on them. I still like the image that I picked though I had to redo the com.resources and framework-res and all the other apk files....what a pain but it is a nice looking theme. I take no credit for the .png files with the excption of the signal status ones. That is the only ones that I did myself. All credit goes to RUJELUS22 for the blue .png files. I did notice though that he did not complete all of the market. When you go to search for something it is in green and not blue. I am not a good themer. I only do simple stuff so I am not going to try to fix that.

Android 2.0.1-r5v0.6
Dead:
==============
After spending some time and looking over this rom and ways to make it work with out any legal issues. The most viable option was to build something like what cynanogen has built. His process takes the proprietary bits (all google apps including sync) and copies them off onto the SD card before doing a update. After the update it copies them back to the newly installed rom. This method basically does a automated backup/restore of your licensed applications. I can't do this for several reasons including that we are supposed to be coming from a 1.5 OS to a 2.0.1, which isn't compatible with the older application set.
Temporarily Offline:
==============
I am sorry to have to do this but we are now having more then just a small handful goofing with this ROM and I need to take this offline while I inspect each of the parts and make sure all licensing is in order since its a bit more then the google Opensource framework. I know that several other ROM creators have not paid much attention to it as I am going to now but I really don't want to upset any IP holders like what happened to Cynanogen a couple months back.
I will put it back up but I want to make sure that I am totally covered and don't have any issues.
version 0.6: download (offline)
==============
-fixed wifi thanks to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=593620
-Now starts up with Android stock keyboard. (No longer needs HTC_IME.apk for second keyboard)
A few have asked for this ROM so I thought I would put it up here for anyone that wants to contribute to or take from it.
This ROM is only compatible with the Sprint CDMA HTC Hero. It is not finished and still requires some work but its good enough for my day to day use and I am sure others may find the same potential.
This ROM is vanilla android and what it takes to actually get it running on a CDMA phone. It is built off of this GSM variant. I am going to try and work to remove the google bits so that you can use Cynanogens method of extracting your own and then doing a follow up update to install them. My efforts for this is not to build a better rom but to build a cleaner base that has limited to no proprietary IP.
Credits to all on this forum how have helped or contributed in any way to building the roms that are here. I would point out names but there are to many to name. I am positive that anyone that pays attention to this forum will know who you are. I used many parts of these ROM's and many others on XDA to build this one.
This is my first ROM and was primarily made for myself to help me learn how to create a custom ROM.
Here is the link to my blog where I originally posted about this and a video of it booting.
Here is the Youtube video of it booting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRTh-rXKe-E
*Warning*: Don't attempt to flash this ROM onto anything else unless you know what you are doing! I am not responsible for any device malfunctions or "Bricks".
Notes on Installing:
- Run a Nandroid backup before you do anything.
- Make sure you do a full wipe first. (Sorry )
- Run the update zip found * Version 0.6 *(offline) from the recovery console.
To get the HTC keyboard installed: (Now Optional as of Version 0.6)
- Follow the instructions here.
Things that don't work:
- Gallery some times has issues.
- Camera
- Wired or Wireless Tethering (Now Testing)
- Orientation
- Trackball light
- Trackball click (Rolling and moving are fine)
- (Let me know if something else needs to go here.)
Possible issues that are not repeatable:
- speaker not working on out bound calls? I made 30 test calls to my home phone and was not able to replicate this issue. Needs to be verified (see here)

Let me know if any of you have issues flashing. I still have it all right here in front of me if I need to make a change.
FYI: The first boot takes for ever as it registers all the APKS.

So you installed both the HTC_IME.apk and the Clicker.apk? Did you do a adb push or a adb install?
Try and go into settings --> Language & Keyboard --> Touch Input --> Text Input?
I think its a force of habit with out really thinking to go there and calibrate but just going there may help.
Try that and let me know.
i just flashed it and pushed the keyboard and calibration app through adb and all is well. its working awesome. Thanks!!!

I would do an install or transfer them to your SD card and grab a app like Astro from the market to install them. Don't worry we will get you worked out.

Thanks, but I really can't take to much credit. Its a "Pick and Pull" from several ROMs. This one actually came from our GSM Brothers and then I used the CDMA tricks in this form to make it work.
I keep watching and playing with the Google Nexus Dumps. I would really like to get one of them up and running.
Based on your posting and replies I assume you are re-using the 2.6.27 kernel like the other roms?

Wow thats allot in a little space.
What I gather is that it originally booted, then after trying to install via droid explorer and then astro it now just dies after the lockscreen.
I am not sure where to start. I would just say to do a full wipe, then a clean install. Then if you have the sdk try the ADB install method as Cynanogen's post talks about.
I am working on trying to get the stock Android keyboard to work. If we can figure out that then we don't have to mess with the HTC one.
ok i got it i just adb pushed them to system/app works great

Yeah, actually some of your work if I remember correctly, thats why its got the same issues. My first goal when I built this for my self was to get past the blasted google bits sync loop. The more I worked into it the more I moved on to the 2.0.1 build with some of your stuff in it.
Your welcome to anything I have learned, its really not my work.

What does this contain?
A modified /system/framework/framework-res.apk:
-res/drawable-hdpi/statusbar_background.png made to be flat black.
-res/layout/status_bar.xml hex edited for both calls to 08 00 00 1C to change 00 00 00 to FF FF FF, so notification text will appear as white.
A modified /system/framework/services.jar/classes.dex:
-com/android/server/status/StatusBarIcon.smali to make the clock text from black to white.
-com/android/server/status/StatusBarService.smali to make the date text from black to white.

-Place on sdcard
-Reboot into recovery
-Make a nandroid backup
-Apply the .zip
-Reboot

Transparent Battery Images
This will give you transparent battery images for when the phone is not charging if you do not want to have a battery image and percent when using the battery percent mod.
http://android-theme-minus.googlecode.com/files/transparent_battery.zip
Desire Status Bar
This will give you just the statusbar_background.9.png from the Desire ROM. People were asking for it in this thread (I think) and in my desire bar thread.
http://android-theme-minus.googlecode.com/files/Desire_Status_Bar.zip
F.A.Q.
Q. How do I get back to a stock notification bar?
A. Either apply a nandroid if you made one or reflash your ROM.
Q. Is there an easy way to tell a file used in MetaMorph from a file flashed in recovery?
A. The size will be substantially larger for a file flashed in recovery. Those files remain roughly around 3MBs. My morphs are usually much smaller and usually only a few KBs or so.
Disclaimer
Nandroid before flashing this so that if something goes wrong, or you want to go back to how your phone was before, then you easily can. Also, if it breaks something, and I don't know how to fix it, then I will say "Apply your nandroid," and if you reply with something similar to "I didn't make one for 'insert your reason for not making a nandroid here.'" Then I will tell you to wipe your phone, and take it as a lesson learned. Also, I am not responsible for any ill things that come from using this. One last thing NANDROID FIRST.

imagine your status bar black lol. its not on my phone anymore. i just tested out the file to make sure it would work then went back to my theme. this was just a request from a user and felt i would share it with other people that wanted it. also, the hero battery probably won't look good scaled up to 38x38 from 25x25. almost all of my old theme icons didn't.

I use ddms in the tools folder of the SDK.
Not really as much of a theme as it is a modified services.jar, /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/statusbar_background.9.png, and /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/layout/status_bar.xml.

Yes I was a little quick to say it worked (I just really checked it booted). It borked superuser permissions app and terminal too.
I'd probably suggest we wait for certified cm5 compatible themes
CM5 beta 2 seem very tricky to theme, no luck so far.
But i am noob so the pro's may have better chance.
The reason it breaks so many things is that it is built from the template enomther provided about 2 weeks ago which doesn't have all the modifications that cyanogen added to it. I haven't installed CM beta 2 yet, but when I do (or whatever the current one is), then I will work on updating my work to it.
UPDATE::8/10/2010 v2.11.3
I finally managed to get this themed after some direction from MicroMod777.
I did not create any images. I only take credit for selecting the specific images already created/pulled by other devs and building the zip.
The status bar is the only major change in this morph. The lockscreen is altered very little by outlining the log sliders (as you can see in the attachment).
Special thanks to the real devs; MicroMod777 (For theming direction), Enomther (for an amazing ROM), stericson (for everything), cyanogen (for everything), etc.
This is a flashable zip that you flash in recovery over the ROM already installed.

I just tried this as well, and the same thing. I just pushed the 'yes' button from within metamorph to reboot.
One thing that might be affecting it is I'm back on 2.9.2 but I'd wager that the area you're playing with here are the same.

Here's the file for Enom's 2.10.1:
http://share1t.com/krzph3
I pulled my framework-res and took services.jar from Enom's PreThemed white text pack.
My framework-res includes the following changes from the usual Desire Bar here:
1) Modified stock data connectivity icons from my thread (read the thread to see, why I made them).
2) Stock battery indicator (the % are too large for DesireBar battery indicator, doesn't look good IMHO).
The services file is different in length, so I believe there are changes from 2.9.3 to 2.10.1 reflected there.
2708 kernel only!FR-customMTD is needed for G1 of at least 94Mb systemI give to you my leaving present....it seems to be fully working,no lag and everything working..All i did was add some files,delete some,change some bits in the build.prop and in the updater script.
My phone will be gone from tomorrow so i provide no support,no updates and am not responsible for any broken phones etc etc...
The name....
Called EZ FRankenCYAN because its a bit of all their work therefore i take NO CREDIT! All i did was use bits and pieces from each of their efforts.
By the way i did it all on my Magic so big thanks to Astro File Explorer!!
I have been using this for the last couple of days and get a respectable 4.4+ linpack scores,Please enjoy as i have and as the new phones owner will.
Thanks to EzTerry, FireRat and CYANogen team.Hopefully i wont annoy anyone by putting this up!
Im now off to the Hero Section again to goodbye for now!
Usual stuff,wipe before you flash backup etc
DOWNLOAD HERE!

I should add that the onpy reason i have posted this is because i didnt want to feel guilty for not sharing...If i was keeping my phone i would go with Ezterry and Firerats rom as its goign to be amazingly fast and clean! I noticed when doign this that the CM coding in files seems quite dirty,as well as EZ/FR having an autoinstaller for various kernels when you flash.
Stick with the newer developers i have a feeling they will support longer than whoever takes over Cmod!
SEE POST 7 FOR FLY ANIMATION! THANKS TO JUANGIL
thanks for sharing, will give it a try
edit 1: you need to mention that FR-customMTD is needed for G1 of at least 94Mb system (thanks)
edit 2: it is indeed Fast, tested with and without compchache and I see no diff, I'll replace ADWLauncher with Launcher2 to see if still as fast as now (I dont want to say it but it feels faster than ezterry's) I even added Fly Animation and it feels faster "foreals"
edit 3: using Launcher2 now and compcache @32mb Jit on, best combination till now, first GB rom I got where LCD density changer works (130/140 looks cool!) this rom can handle the transition animation really snappy
i couldnt flash it. the zip could not be opened or something :s
Could you explain how you got the Cyanogenmod parts into this otherwise stock ROM? I would use EzTerry / Firerat's Gingerbread ROMs, but I really miss the dropdown power widget and the battery percentage. All the rest I could live without.

I am curious to try this out. I downloaded the ROM from the OP but when I went to flash it I also received an error that e:\ bad zip. Does the ROM require custom MTD as stated by Bonesy? If it does require MTD, what are your settings? Also how is the gmail issue with the ROM, does it loop or is all OK?

it DOES require customMTD as STATED, no problem with Gmail, it has the power widgets on pulldown bar, No battery porcentage
my settings for MTD; 98 1.5 (I have 3.9Mb free after adding animation to framework and Launcher2 to system)
edit: forgot to mention Im using FR-customMTD-v1.5.8 beta (recovery & boot) from here:

I attached framework with fly anim for you to try
push it to /system/framework/framework-res.apk and reboot

Thanks for the quick response. I am going to up my MTD partition size from 87 2 to your settings and give it a shot. The battery percentage isnt a showstopper for me. I will let you know how it goes after changing the settings.

I appreciate the helpful suggestions but for some reason I keep getting e:\ cant open /sdcard/ezfranencyan. (bad) installation aborted
Bummer, I tried to install the CMsettings apk files from CM7 beta onto my EzGingerbread alpha system, doesn't work.

and.. why are posting this here?
and... you are proly missing settings.apk & settings.provider.apk if Im not mistaken
and.. if you also want the slide to answer lock you'll need phone.apk & Contacs.apk aswell
and... CMparts.apk of course
fyi, the rom posted here already includes CMparts.apk with most of features working

Because bonesy (the OP) is the only one who seems interested in mixing CM and stock Gingerbread.

And no, I did install CMparts.apk, settings.apk, and settings.provider.apk. It worked in the sense that it showed the Cyanogenmod settings and let me change them, but it didn't actually do anything. And then after reboot they disappeared.
It doesnt wok like that i used the CM7 port as the base then added in some of ezterrys parts, this file isnt signed as i made it on my magic with NO PC its a shame ive sold my magic now i would like to continue

I used both megauload and rapidshare, in both cases I also got a bad zip
So it would sem they uploaded bad to them,try the others...sorry

It's the fastest GingerBread I've ever seen... But There is one small bug. I'm from poland (you can see it on every my post- language problems )... I'm from Poland and I see, that keyboard layouts don't match (what I type on hardware keyboard don't match what I get. I mean this: [email protected]#$%^&*()_[];',./-=\ signs...). Is there any fix for that? And where is the "?" sign?
Bad zip is caused by wrong digest (signature) of the package. I've had the same. Sign it and it would be ok
Themed to look like the Gingerbread (2.3.x) Motoblur Builds from devices like:
Droid X/X2/2/3, Photon 4G, Triumph, and Atrix
This will work on BravoX Rom as well as stock Bravo 2.2.1 (as tested by abhi897)
I have only tested it on BravoX RC2 so I can't guarantee any results, anything you do to damage your phone is not my responsibility.
This modifies all of the framework-res.apk and some of the services.jar
What it changes:
Status Bar & icons
Popup menus
Buttons
Drop down menus
"loading" spinners
and other things i can't remember
Requirements:
Root
BandroidX's bootstrap recovery or Sndinit.apk (below) or have ADB set up with knowledge
some knowledge on what you need to do if something goes wrong with your phone (e.g. SBF, nandroid restore)
To apply:(With bootstrap recovery or 2ndInit)
Download the flashable zip below to sdcard
Boot into CWM recovery through BandroidX's recovery app
make a nandroid backup
Select install zip from sdcard
Select choose zip from sdcard
Select the downloaded .zip.zip
select yes to confirm
wait for installation to finish (a few seconds)
Reboot (will take a while because of the modded services.jar, so BE PATIENT!) Pull Battery and boot up again if boot takes longer than 5 minutes
Enjoy your theme!
(With ADB)
Download the .zip to you computer
Extract the services.jar and framework-res.apk to where your ADB directory is
Plug your phone in with phone portal and ADB debugging enabled (settings>applications>development)
Open up your command prompt
Type these commands (after each, press enter):
Code:
cd [directory of adb and .jar and .apk]
adb remount
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb push services.jar /system/framework/services.jar
adb reboot
(reboot will take awhile because you are modding the services.jar, so BE PATIENT!) Pull Battery and boot up again if boot takes longer than 5 minutes
Things needed in upcoming updates:
Change some white font to black for easier reading (such as pull down menus)
If there is anything else, let me know
Changelog:1.4
Updated all status bar .pngs to match the newest builds from Motorola
1.3
Changed progress bar to have grey outline like the Droid X
1.2
Changed animations and other .pngs to better match the Droid X with 2.3.3
1.1
Changed status bar date color to white
Made orange pull-bar (in 3rd pic below) blue
Made download progress bar blue
1.0
Initial release
Thanks to:
BandroidX for the awesome ROM and bootstrap
Daneshm90 for the .zip creator http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=717437
EXTRA- if you want Gingerbread Market notifications and Gmail notifications follow these steps:
Note: you don't need my status bar mod, it will work on any phone.
Download Gingerbread_icons_market_and_gmail.zip from below
put on sdcard
uninstall market and gmail
rename the vending.apk and gmail.apk (located in system/app/) to vending.bak and gmail.bak
boot into CWM recovery
Wipe Cache
Select install from zip from sdcard
select choose zip from sdcard
select gingerbread_icons_market_and_gmail.zip
install

Very Cool, I have DroidX and wow it looks just like it in the pics! I am going to install this on my dev bravo and check it out.
One note to users, I would not use the services.jar w/o my ROM, the services.jar is deodexed and you cant mix a dedodexed services.jar w/ a non-deodexed framework, you will bootloop.

This is Very Cool Jorgonv!!!
Jorg, is there a way we can get an Odexed version of the "services.jar" file, for those who wish to use the stock rom?
How does it run on the hardware? Any issues so far?
I will probably flash back over to the latest RC and test it out.
Lately, i have preferred staying on the stock Rom, as it seems to score better in Quadrant... (i think maybe because of the deodexing, it needs to do more at start-up, leaving some resources still open, or used.)
Never-the-less, I think the Rom bandroidx has compiled for is is am amazing piece of work, and only the beginning to our list of supported Os versions!!!
I can't wait to load this theme up on the RC.
Will test it out and see how it goes!!
bandroidx,
Do you foresee any work with a complete vanilla gingerbread, or higher, version of android being cooked?
This bootloader situation seems kind of sticky to me, what kind of keywords would you recommend i search for, in efforts to overcome this limitation?
Thanks!!
I love it!
Two requests/questions:
*It seems like my "synching" notification icon never goes away?
* Any plans on including a circle battery icon?

Glad you like it. I've seen some people with the same syncing icon problem and the only solution was to wipe data.
I'm not planning to making it with a circle icon, this theme is only droid x 2.3.
I will be making more themes in the future, possibly with circular battery icons.

I tried to make an odexed version before bandroid's rom came out, but had no success. I could try again
I dont think the odexed version would make the phone run any slower. I am running the rom fine at 1 ghz and no lag. The only difference is the first boot-up after wiping the cache. after that, it boots up at the normal speed

you should read android central's new piece of quadrant benchmarks. real world feel is probably a better indicator and the rom feels faster.
the rom removes bloatware and services that would usually run and waste memory like voice commander nad others, the deodexing if anything should speed things up.
i am starting to think odexing is just a way for a oem to lock things down a little more. but i really dont know too much about beyond the basics.
quadrant can be swayed far too much by IO, and io can be effected so easily in so many ways.
either way, i wouldnt concern yourself too much with quadrant scores when deciding to run the rom or not. quadrant can be a good indicator like when overclocking (and nothing else has changed except clock speed) but when it comes to different rom's I am not sure its as good of an indicator. I do own quadrant advanced though so I can run it on the rom and see what scores differ specifically, i am betting on IO, but who knows.
Tell you what...I'm not fond of the cost of these projects but I got a $30 donation if somehow you can change the swype color path to red...

Swype Beta, or the stock bravo one?
True. I flashed over to rc2, only, and it scored near the same rang as the stock..
I concur with the topic of real world feel, and benchmarks.. Benchmarks can only tell you so much..
Well, my interest is more towards breaking the boot loader moto has placed upon the newer phones.. Do you know of any current projects to defeat this you may be able to link me too?

Hey jorg,
When I installed the theme, my status bar text is still black, hard to see against the dark background.. Will you package the white text in the next edition?

Stock swype...I'm using the droid 2.3.3 theme and I was curious if you could plug code into it for red swype. i've been trying to use UOT Kitchen but for some reason, when I attempt to use it, all the tabs are greyed/inactive.

I checked the file and it seems to be already white. Try flashing the file again
just sent you the file you requested above...
also, i noted, i will have to try and clear the cache next time i install it, and see if that works...
Thanks Jorgonv!!
I'm having the same clock text color problem for the update, but I already tried re-flashing and that didn't work. I'm going to try doing the cache this time to see if it works.
Edit: After wiping both the Davlik cache and the cache partition I re-flashed, but the clock text didn't change. I'm probably doing something wrong, but I can't figure it out.

I'll look into it more since there is a couple of people having problems
Just to make sure, it is date font when you pull down the status bar that is still white?
Great job on this theme, it really is great!
