Asimmons's big theme porting thread Updated 10/25/10!!!(Dark Edge, INexus)

So heres two of the themes I've ported lately.
Backup before you install, there might be minor 9patch issues, you might need to change your cmparts colors!... and please don't complain about something missing.
Soon I'll release a way for just about any theme to be injected into your rom with out have to worry about frameworks, roms and the other issues that arise from theme porting... this will be built off of the script I'm using now. Why not release this script? because its tricky to use and I'm going to make it friendlier to use by putting a gui on it.
These or for cm6 stable.
I take no credit for these themes only the port.
I won't be doing nightlies, but anyones is welcome to use the source to port it to a nightly, just respect the original creators work and give them props.
Further Ports:
As you guys might know I have an Evo now but I'll still stick around and help out my buddies in the Hero forums... so I can't port every HDPI theme, my porting technique isn't 100% but the script does alot of the work. The script literally takes 30 minutes to an hour to run.... so in short I probably wont or can't port every theme out there as is just not possible but some themes port very easy, if one of you guys see and issue with a theme I post here just fix it and repost it cause I won't be fixing it.
INexus:
INexus mdpi port download
INexus OP
Dark Edge UI:
Dark Edge mdpi port download !!!
Dark Edge OP
This has some issues with black texts anyone is welcome to try and fix this, I don't have the time atm to do it myself... unless bribed.
Buufed Rom:
Working on finding the full theme apparently is hard to find around here, either buff theme or Buufed theme.
Screenies:
Later... going to a b-day party.

Inexus looks good so far..just flashed it and no issues yet.. GJ on the port..

Yeah I didn't notice it was only for stable either and flashed over #99 to get a loop. So I reflashed CM6 Gold, nandroided, wiped, stable, and now booting up inexus.

Yeah its finished couldn't port the lock screen since the ud rom has a custom one... but the biggest issues is the black text for the dialog. Since my porter only does pngs and the dark edge has white text most of the dialogs can't be read... not sure if I should post as is or make the xml edits myself. Its really time consuming.

send me a link and I'll look, like I said this will port any rom's png over to any other rom. The biggest issue are the 9patch's and the xml edits. xml edits can be gotten around by porting to a rom/theme that is similar but the 9 ptach porting is so tricky and its never 100%, but it does most of the work and if you do see and issue in a 9 patch all you really need to do then is decompile the 9patch and fix the strechies.

DarkEdge going up soon?

[THEME] [Update to 12-17 Roms] Flip_N_Blue [jaybobs cm stable roms]

VERSION 1.1 DOWNLOAD BELOW FOR JAYBOB'S 12-17 ROMS
First off I did not create this from scratch, the 3 main themes I used to make this are jaybob's CM6.1 Stable BlackMod (any of his builds should work), thoughtlesskyle's TwoPointTwo Theme and Incognito/Minimal Theme by Retrokid223 (Samsung Fascinate Forum).
Now with all that said, I made this theme to run on jaybob's CM6.1 Stable builds though this should work on stock CM6.1 stable. I have not tested it but will some time today. Also I have not tested on nightlies or AOSPmod. Try if you want but NANDROID!
Installation....
Make NANDROID!
Flash Theme
WIPE DALVIK!!! (if no wipe you will get FC"s)
Reboot System
Enjoy!
The animations are easy to replace if you do not care for them. Take the stock rom and open with 7zip, open another 7zip with the theme, inside the framework folder take the folder called "anim" and drop it in the theme, reflash theme.
I will keep theme updated as jaybob releases rom updates. As far as other roms try the theme porter for now, or thoughtlesskyle has some AWESOME themes for AOSPmod!
I never posted a official thread for a release of a theme, so if I left anything or anyone out please PM me, thanks

Download Flip_N_Blue 1.2 Below
XDA Slow to upload so I am uploading to another site now, will post a link in a few minutes

You have to use Launcher Pro, download the image and in Launcher Pro there is a option called "dock background" chose custom and select the dock image. You will find the dock background setting under "appearance Settings".

I did that first, only I pulled it from my phone using adb replaced the xml files in framework napkin(suppose to be apk but it replaced it, kept it cause I thought it was funny...just like gonna = hobnail, wtf is a hobnail haha) n pushed it back on. I tried following the directions but adb wudnt work when I was in recovery so I just did both push n pull when the rom was booted. It worked but force closed everything. See I know how to do stuff but don't exactly know what it is im doing, im good at following directions. I have no clue why clearing dalvik wud make or break this mod, or what it does to begin with, the extent of my knowledge is that it clears dalvik cache hhahah.

Thank you for this theme, love it! Perfect with jaybob blackmod.

I yanked the anim folder from your zip along with the flip-animation.xml and placed them into a fresh aospMod0992. opimized and signed again. Flashed and booted. They work fine in most areas so far.

[Theme]Star Wars for LibertyX 1.0

I got tired of there not being any good Star Wars themes for any of the Roms(except R2D2 D2's ports, which aren't really that good IMO). So I gave it a try. This is the first theme i have ever done. So please remember that if its not any good lol. Big props to Mikeyinid for his great theme bases i used to help my novice run at this much easier.
Install Instructions-
Reboot Clockwork Recovery
Mount System
Install zip from sd card
reboot and enjoy.
Also included in theme-
-Pandora Radio with transparent widget
-Black themed keyboard
-black themed market
-Star Wars Ringtones and Notification files(more than just R2 sounds)
-Located inside the Theme zip file is also a Star Wars boot animation and boot logo(they can also be found in system/media folder after installation)- both of which can be installed through Liberty Toolbox, follow their instructions.
-Also inside zip file are some Star Wars wallpapers.
Download Here-
http://www.mediafire.com/starwarslibertyx
Do not use unless comfortable using an SBF.(This is the CYA section of the post . )
I take no responsability for problems that may occur or damage done to phone with this theme. Use at your on risk.

Cool
beamed from the freak machine Droid X

What phone is this theme for ? , i flashed it over Liberty 1.0 on by Droid X and couldn't get any 3G Signal i just got the signal bars and a little x over the bars even in an area where theirs good signal . So disappointed would love for it to work .

For Droid X running Liberty 1.0. Did you come from another theme? If so install Liberty Rom without wiping data and cash. Then reinstall theme. Sometimes themes can leave things behind that don't play nice with other themes. Always good to start with the base rom then install theme of your choice. Hope this helps.

Good, glad you got it working.
The stuff you mentioned should be in the zip folder, or in the /system/media folder after install. You can use Root Explorer or another file manager to access the system folder. There is a chance i accidentally uploaded the Theme zip that i forgot to put those into, it can get kinda hard to keep it all strait when you are working on hundreds of images in the framework. If you can't find them let me know and i will download the file from media fire and install it myself to see what is wrong. Like i said in the original post, this is my first theme and attempt at moding the framework like this, so please bear with me and I will get it all worked out.
-----Edit-----
I just downloaded the file myself and the images are in the zip folder. You should be able to use Root Explorer to extract the files inside the zip. It will pull them to /sdcard/extracted. Then look in the /sdcard/extracted/system/media folder. If this isn't working for you, you could always copy the file to your PC and use a program like WinZip or camparable(thats what i did to check it for you) and then copy the files to your phone. Hope this helps.

Nice theme, I'm using it now. Thanx for putting Vader sounds as ringtone and notifications good work.

I think I am gonna make a Empire one still, just gonna take a little bit cause i gotta make a lot of the images for the framework from scratch to do it the way i want.
