I'd like to start doing themes and what not, mainly for aosp 2.2 ROMS just cuz there my favorite, the main thing I want to try and recreate is the Droid X I just love the look so clean in my opinion, what all do I need? I'm not good with adb or the sdk, I could try to learn if someone is willing to walk me through it. What is the easiest yet most affective way to make/port them. Thanks in advance

Agreed. Wrong use of "there" and "affective" too

Yayy for getting hated on for trying to be somewhat useful -_-' I have skimmed through the themes and apps forum and didn't find much other than the theme injector and the sticky had no link to actually creating. And so far every question I've asked in q&a gets ignored

If you haven't found an answer, you haven't searched. Hint: there is a section that has "theme" in the title. I'd start there
That's also why questions get ignored.

Why are themes mixed with applications? It's a mess...
Why can't there be one section for themes and other for applications?
I won't say it a mess but Yes, that would be better...
Agreed. There is too much stuff going on with HD2 now, and the biggest problem is the new things fall back and many of the users even don't see the new posts.
I agree.
I´ve been here since Kaiser forum was the "hottest" thing on XDA, but even that is nothing in comparison of the "hottness" of Leo's forum.
Sometimes good things almost get lost with all those topics popping out during the day.
So far, i thank RSS, but separated Apps and Themes fora would be nice.
+1 too Apps & Themes should be separated for easier view or search.
I think thats a great idea
People will still ignore the forum titles and start threads where they want to.
Take this one, for example. It should not be in the themes and apps forum of the HD2 as it has diddly-squat to do with either the HD2, themes or apps.
There is a forum for this type of conversation.
Like I said - people will post where they want. You'll just get used to it.
Saying that, you could then have a forum just for tweaks...
The idea is good.... But Johncmolineux is right, it will change nothing....
Xda is like Ali Baba's cave... It's a big mess, but a mess I finally like. At the end I always find what I'm looking for.

I've tried to find a place to post this and did not succeed. And if this is about this section, it's not that wrong to be here. But I've posted here not because I simple want but because I did not find a suggestions section. An Apps and a Thread sections inside the HD2 section of XDA will be very easy to find.
By that way of thinking we should not have 4 HD2 sections, we should only have one... since people make mistakes in where to post...

Yeah, I've seen that. But wasn't sure if it was for suggestions about the forum. And then, if I post there probably most of the users of the HD2 sections will not see it.

Surely you're making a suggestion about the site, not the HD2, which is why you should post it in a forum that is for the site. That's all.
There's actually a thread in that forum for suggestions for the mods. That's the best place to ask a question that relates to the site.

I disagree, John.
Of course you're correct in as much as SOME people (particularly people new to the site) will always start threads where they want to. But I would say that MOST people (particularly experienced posters) stick to the rules regarding posting new threads in the correct section and those who don't quickly have the errors of their ways pointed out to them!
I also disagree that this particular thread is 'out on place' in the Themes and Apps section. The OP wanted to gauge feeling amongst current users of this section as to his suggestion of splitting the section into two. Who's going to see it if it's hidden away somewhere else on the forum?
Just my thoughts... No criticism of others' opinion meant...
Btw... I would also be in favour of a split.
I would like to see this happen too, but im sure it would be hassell for anybody that needs to get it uptodate/tidy!

Yes it would need some hard work... But we could keep this actual sections as the themes section for example, and then the users would report the threads that needed to be moved, that way the moderators won't need to be checking all threads...
What about having actual MODERATORS on this forum??? Cause all those topics that are made dubble and dubble each and every single day are driving everybody crazy I know that for sure!! I scroll down through one page on the forum in 1 minut cause of all the same things I am reading over and over again!
Why isn't the policy here actually being applied??? Why aren't the moderators HARSHER?? (if there are moderators cause I only have seen one here on the Leo's forums).....
I am sure 90% of the people here think like me, especialy when there ar epeople who only register to this forum to make a topic and ask a question and don't bother to search and when they got their answer never bother to look on tthis forum again.......
Really, the policy should be looked after and there should be at leaste 5 times more moderators than there are now!!!
We are missing the important threads through all the b*ll**** and sorry to say this but some people don't have time to spend hours a day on this forum! We have to work/study, I am sure many agree with me!
Check out the Droid X Wiki!!
The wiki is a one stop place for all your needs (eventually). Instead of searching through pages of threads and posts, you can go straight to the themes section of the wiki and click on the theme that you wish the install or view. I has many (just about all) of the themes that are for the Droid X in one location.
The wiki is open to the public and is encouraged to help out and help with the upkeep!
IM ON A WIKI PAGE!!!!
Sooo cool
Im like a little kid right now
Haha and 928 isnt on there, not to be mean but he tried to get me banned from droidforums...

Ill take it any way i can get it!
Very cool. I like how organized and simple it is. Thanks for that.

The very first builds of buufed were built on the HTC framework, so if you PM crunchy and ask for the last one build around it, you should be good to go.
Im real tired of everyone posting questions in the wrong forums. DO YOU NOT READ RULES AT ALL? you must be completely stupid cuz at the top a HUGE sticky thread says do not post Questions in this section. Im sorry for being so rude but you need to read or be banned.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=650
Andanyone can complain all they want about my post not helping, but why should we help someone who doesnt even bother reading the rules or looking at the sections before they post! Forums need order.

kinda beating a dead horse isnt it lol... ive seen hundreds of posts about searching b4 asking and it doesn't seem to be clicking. Maybe they should write a code that makes the forum automatically redirect someone to the search page when they click on the "new thread" icon lol... then in big bold letters at the top of the search page it would say "ARE YOU SURE THIS HASN'T BEEN ANSWERED ALREADY?"
the "RULES" also say "no flaming" so I guess you're just as guilty..
Yes I agree..and ban me to then. But people have got lazy and the forums need order it does not have now.

We need a Rom sub forum under samsung captivate so all the roms are in one places and not all mixed up under development.

Wouldn't they still need to be in the development forum..since most are a works in progress ? I could see having a sticky with links and screen shots of them but they would have to be locked down otherwise they would get cluttered up with all of the questions being asked about them..
Mac
yes locked down or something cause they are freaking cluttered now.
I'll bump it now. Guy tried to put together a sticky like this, but never got stickied.
Well can't find it now.

I had a professor once that told me "clutter is a sign of brilliance". So finding anything in the dev forum would make you a Mensa candidate.

But where would the feedback go though... and all those "how do i turn on my phone so i can install this rom" questions?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835928
im trying to gather resources to make a website devoted to presenting ROM's in a easy to use way. check it out. thanks
so ive been pondering on this all day and this is my conclusion:
how about the development section actually being a developement section, and all "what modem should i use?" or "will this work the the i900 kernal?" or the "when is the updated version coming out?" could go in the q&a section where they belong, what we need are more mods that are a little more active in moving threads and deleting unnecessary posts out of the development section, can you imaging how much more smooth our devs could work if they didnt have to sort through 20 posts to find one that might help them with the actually development.
oh and one more thing, that captivate bible thing, that was an excellent idea, would have done a lot of great things and helped many people, but no one goes through and updates it, what a waste :/
I found this a while back. I found out quite a-bit about our phones from it...Seems to me since this is already up and running..maybe the owner wouldn't mind adding a section for custom Roms and maybe the themes as well ? Wouldn't hurt to ask them anyway..I did just a few minutes ago
Mac
The easiest way is to look for the threads Labled {Rom}? This has been brought up over and over again. It tried a few times but never went anywhere as most at to busy to keep the roms on more then one website. As for the questions being asked they belong in the thread for the rom they use and not in Q&A.
I think he was talking about all the other questions in the development section. What Im talking about is something like just roms in a section, if u want to ask questions or talk about rom fine but be only under that rom thread, U would have a Section Clean of all kinds of post and other development stuff, Have a certain format for titles in the rom section, where it would be uniform. I know there still under development but it would be clean, and easy to find.
I like this idea. It should be formatted sort of like DG's thread. All questions goes on that thread for development and on the first page the links would point to the ROM section where people can download the roms they need look at screen shots.
I don't feel like installing any ROM's at this point but I do want the Gingerbread Keyboard. Anyone know where I can find it?
Market. Search Gingerbread keyboard.

come on people post things like this in the right area. your going to get more into then
Simple solution would be to tell them that its the wrong section, give them a 24 hour ban, and then answer the question when posted in the correct section...
waste the mods time in moving threads and deleting them, they'll waste 24 hours of your time for not reading simple rules, or having common sense
