Once BandroidX finishes up his CWM recovery, we will be able to use UOT kitchen. (pull framework-res off, upload it, theme it, download it, flash the zip via CWM)

I think we'll have to wait until we have a deodexed ROM too.

However, after talking to bandroidx about him making a ROM, he plans to make it deodexed.
Good stuff! I was hoping to create a black status bar for my bravo, however I have no idea how to deodex it or anything of that nature. I'm ok with the terminology and I'm totally up for learning, I will lend a hand where I can. Once a custom ROM is up, maybe then I can put together some themes, or at least give it a try! Looking to break in.
Here it is, just to be proven it can done, I'm working on white icons and such.

I am a super noob when it comes to flashing android but i have flashed cyanogen's rom to my nexus one. i know how to flash back to stock with modaco's image, my question is i like the battery percentage in the battery icon at the top, how would i be on the stock image but install that option?
Are you asking how to get the battery % on Cyanogen or how to on the stock ROM?

If you can de-odex your stock ROM's /system/framework folder, then you might be able to take the necessary .smali files and rebuild the classes.dex of the stock services.jar, and it might work. There are a lot of mights involved with that though.

try flashing enomthers rom it has all of the same featuress and what your asking for.

There is a morph to change the H icons to 3G icons. I don't see why people hate seeing that icon so much. It must be so much better than only getting to see the E. Also, there is a morph to make the power control icons green.
Edit:
Searched and didn't see the morph, thought I had saw one a few days ago.
http://android-theme-minus.googlecode.com/files/green_pc.zip
So there is morph that will changes the blue images back to green.

By request, I have put together a stock android theme for PMF 1.0 (cause it's deodexed)
I replaced some files in services.jar to get the clock in the status bar to be black, but you'll notice that notification text is still white. If anyone has good java skills and wants to help with decoding .smali files so we can get black notification text then please pm me.
If you guys like this and want to encourage further development please donate.
This theme will not work with any odexed sense rom. You can try, but you'll get bootloops. Don't say i didn't warn you
Please make a nandroid before flashing this theme

hey bud, you are putting up some real quality work, probably one of the best themers on the incredible so far
Ok. To install this place the .zip onto the root of my sd card and apply through the clockwork recovery mod, correct? Also after applying this, how do I disable/remove it if I do not like it? Thanks

I just installed the taskbar and it looks great, much better than the stock taskbar. The only thing is, my clock still shows up with white text, not black.

I used update.zip and applied over stock Sense.
I actually just read the first post a little closer, it still works with stock sense, only issue is the lighter colored clock in the top right corner. Thanks for all the hard work, I'm really liking the themes.
I just applied this to the latest version of my ROM and it looks fantastic! Keep up the good work man and thanks for the support!
This was my first ROM and theme I installed.....Love it so far, good work!!!
Thanks very much for this. One issue: from time to time, the 3G icon reverts to the old Black icon. Did I not apply the update properly?
Question. Does this theme skin Sense or is this just the taskbar?
coolingout said:

It's just the status bar right now, but sooner or probably a bit later it'll be everything. keep in mind this is a alpha testing release so its very much not finished.

Location still uses the black icon, also 3g seems to switch back and forth between the black and white icons.
Other than that, it's great! I love it.
This may be a dumb question (sorry I am new to the game) but do I need to root my phone first? Or can I apply this "theme" using the same method I installed the OTA leaks and updates on my un-rooted droid eris (place files on SD and restart phone holding down power+volume down)?

You applied it correctly, if you are talking about what I think you are.
What happens on mine is when the 3g becomes inactive (just inactive, not disabled) it reverts to the old icon.
See if thats the case with you as well.

Anyone know which one will work with this rom? I've tried quite a few and none have worked.
I'm new tow Warm so not familiar with which mods will work other that what's the thread.
Like Sense 2.0 though.
Any help is appreciated.

This will only work on WarmZ RLS1! Future versions will require an updated mod!
Just flash in Recovery. Enjoy!

Have a screenshot?
If you are comfortable pulling your own framework-res.apk, you can use UOT Kitchen to make your own custom circle battery icon. If you are just using the stock framework, check to see if UOT already has it. If they do not, pull it out of the ROM's zip file.
If you have already modified your framework-res in some way (like flashed a theme) then pull it directly from your phone to use on UOT kitchen.
Make a nandroid backup, of course, but so far I've had 100% success using UOT Kitchen.

Here are some of the PNG files being used by g00gl3's attachment.
If you're ever curious, you can always explore an .apk file using a zip program. I opened g00gl3's attached zip, navigated to system/framework, then opened framework-res.apk
Inside of framework-res, look for the .png files that start with "stat_sys_battery"
In this case, they can be found under res/drawable-hdpi-v4
Awesome!! And it fixed the clear background in just the ongoing area so now I cab see the temp!

UOT Kitchen skySTOCKeteer 1.5
Are there any known setup suggestions/requirements while trying to use UOT for a SR on skySTOCKeteer? i have spent an hour or two making a few customizations and have saved my settings (.uot file) as well as retrieved my cooked zip. I did some further reading and found out it can possibly soft brick so am leery on actually implementing. Any suggestions welcome, if anyone would like to take advantage of the time i've invested let me know and i'll post the files,
Thanks in advance

Does UOT kitchen work with Theme Chooser apps now? Last time I used it, it was only for the actually framework files (framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk).

i guess not i read a bunch about just getting the theme chooser.apk and uploading that and it is supposed to add an apk to the zip it gives u to download
1. Go to the Kitchen page
2. Browse through the available mods and choose what you want (don't forget to press Generate preview if there is such a button)
3. Go to the file upload section and upload the required files, or choose the ROM you use from the kitchen's list (most roms in the list are for HTC Desire)
Files you need to upload:
Froyo rom: framework-res.apk
Gingerbread rom: framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk
Gingerbread with sense rom: framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk and com.htc.resources.apk
Cyanogenmod7 rom: Cyanbread.apk or Androidian.apk or any theme for ThemeChooser (rename as you like it to apear in theme menu)<----thats what im using
NOTE 1: if you’re uploading theme apk then do not upload any other files; you’re just wasting traffic, because the kitchen will ignore additional files
NOTE 2: Font packs and boot animation do not require files to be uploaded. If you choose only those mods then you get a download without a queue.
4. Go to the summary section. All chosen mods must have a green background. If there is a mod in red background it means you didn’t finish it.
Press Submit work to kitchen
5. Remember the UOT file name (your order number).
6. Go to the Pickup page and wait for your file to appear (it can take from 5min to 1hr or more)
7. Download UOT zip into SD card of your phone
8. Reboot into recovery
9. Wipe cache and dalvik-cache (just in case). Do not wipe data / factory reset.
10. Flash UOT zip
11. Reboot phone

Hey Kwes - I have not tried UOT with New Clip because you mentioned themes may break things. Does that also apply to UOT? I wanted to change the color of all the items on the status bar to the hex ICS color. Should that be OK if I do not change anything else?
Or is there a better way to do that?

As long as you use the systemui and framework-res from the rom it shouldn't break anything. But some sketchy edits I made in framework as work a rounds might not let you edit it with uot but you can always try. I'm gonna update soon if I can just get these lock screens right.

Thanks. I will give it a try tonight or tomorrow. I want to make a set of all gingerbread green status bar icons and a set of all ICS blue status bar icons. If it works I will send them to you and you could add them to New Clip (if you want to) as an option for people that want everything matching, but do not want a complete makeover theme.
I just think it looks nice when the battery, clock, signal, wifi, etc match in color. Fond of ICS blue right now. I think I know how to repack it so anyone can use it. I'll PM you later if I get it done.
Edit: Well...that was a disaster. I just changed the status bar icons and added a different battery. Result was a boot loop twice and then a black screen requiring a battery pull. Restored my back up and will give it another try. Maybe a bad file download?

An all new update is just around the corner. Kwes1020 has some magic he is holding back until its right. Old weapon 3.0 works fine with UOT. I am not a real theme guy. I answer easy questions for noobs and piggyback off the hard work of others, but always give credit and thanks to the real guys. If the update does not happen as expected, I will take another stab at it.
I love learning new things and android has become an addiction. If you want to try, read up on topic. Tons of good info out there. UOT is simple to use. The trick is making the zip you create compatable with every one else. There is a mini tutorial in the moonman thread.
My First Time
So I sat for over an hour making my first OUT kitchen Theme if that is what you call it, I am waiting for it to cook as you say.... hope all goes well when I flash it to my stock Gingerbread rom......
