Ive tried 3 different themes still cant get the black status bar
if you have the newest metamorph, make sure you have a new style morph aswell, the old ones wont work with new metamorph unless the themer updated their morph

thanks for you help both of you, the zip files has no xml file in it, but its the latest got it from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=637245
the kustom one. It contains no xml file at all, and the one i created from the .thm doesnt work.
I have the latest metamorph from andriod market v 1.9.8.3
EDIT: metamorph never asked me about busybox is this only need for older versions of metamorph?
anyone ?
Try THIS, credit goes to its creator (Danation @ ModMyMoto) All you have to do is put the .thm file in the same folder as this, then run the program. It makes an .xml file that you can put back in the Morph zip file, then you should be good to go. If it tells you it already has a valid xml file, tell it to make one anyways.
PS- follow the link, the version i uploaded is not the newest one

Hi thanks for your help i appreciated it! I already tried to create the xml file using that program, but when i try to apply it only applies some parts of the theme not the black bar. Ive got chrome icon and messaging icons but no black bar. Any ideas?
Ive tried so many different morphs that are meant ot change my status bar to black but still none that work, it seems to just change the clock font to white, so i can hardly see it. This is really frustrating, i think i better refund metamorph before its too late.
is morph of kspec working for others? Are they using their own made .xml file? is it making their topbar black?
What am i doing wrong? Do i need this busybox?
awesome forum!

##HELP## Renames adwtheme.apk to .zip to add my own images - wont insall???

Ok, so i renamed a default adw theme apk to .zip to unpack and add the images I want and change the orange glows etc after renaming back to apk cant install on phone 'problem parsing package' assuming this is because i unpacked it and re zipped / renamed to apk.
Is there another way of doing this?? Originally made the theme using template and eclipse / sdk with the adw theme template release package but when i install my app [which was packed unsigned as ive no idea how to go through this keymaker stuff] it cannot be installed on x10 [for 2.2] and you cant use the theme template in eclipse with 1.6 minimum it doesn't work and noticed on github site I got the template from [AnderWeb original] that it needs to be based on 2.2 but will work on 1.6 etc [it doesn't].. this was in the comments when ppl were getting errors in the manifest file, was becuase they set it for 1.6
So anyway aside from confusion I only need to change the png images surely theirs a simple way to unpack / explore and change the APK ??? Spent far too long getting nowhere now and killing chrome with over 50 web tabs and searches open lol
open the apk with 7-zip, and just drag the images straight into the archive - no need to unpack at all!
I'm using a modded theme, but have apks open with Winrar by default so don't need to rename them. When you open the apk leave it open whilst you work on it then once you've added your files just close and install it.
... And don't forget to sign it . Thats the reason you are getting this error.

you only have to sign it if your extracting it - keeping it open in winrar or 7zip your not doing that, so i tdoesnt need resigning
Ok messed up a little didnt create a new apk to work on now its buggerd does anyone have a x10 compatable apk of the basic theme? lol

Might be as well re-downloading it to your phone and pulling it, I cant seem to find the default one on my phone but can see the one I modded.
What you using to pull it, as they are hidden in drawer the file manager i use to back up also doesnt see adw or its themes lol. I d/l the one i had from god knows what side cant find it now. Just goin g to mod a stock adw laucnher v1.1 apk see if that works also because the new version i had messed up alot of themes and not many are updated for it yet.
ahh cant find an apk of donut 1.6 version of adw v1.1

Not sure what version this is, but I do know it's an older one...
thanks.. now saying this application cannot be installed on this phone lol happy days! used winrar and zzip to open and add new images, very annoying now lol.
Uploaded the APK below
'ADW.Launcher could not be installed on this phone'
Would this be because its replacing a newer version? although it gets passed the promp telling me it will replace another app on the phone
Ok annoyd now uninstalled current adw and tried still wont install lol now im stuck with stock hope it keeps saved settings lol
how are you editing the archive im copy/pasting im my drawable-hdpi etc folders in which is replacing the old ones within the archive
When you modify the apk, theres something about the certificates that prevent you from installing a modified version. if u learn how to sign it ul b fine.. btw if there's a stock version u after let me know.. iv got quite a few of them! lol
Sent from my rooted 026 X10i using swype via Xda
Comparing files from the older apk and the one you posted, some of the file dimensions are different as in your images are bigger, and some of yours don't look right either, what are the little dashes dotted around some of them...
open it in photoshop its fine. Thats PNG transparency doesnt show in image viewer

I'd like these as well!
Is there a screen shot I can view? I put in a request (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=806844) for my own set, but the developer is busy creating his own theme.
Calkulin has an Incredible rom out. Check the development thread. It has those same icons. I'm too much of a noob but someone might be able to rip them out of there...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803331
I created the same topic. I guess I missed this one! The colored notification icons would be beast!
If some would let me know where there stored I can pull them and try to make a metamorph file to patch them into any Rom..
Yes, please please do this. I would like them too.
I can't download his Rom. If anyone would like to download it and make a mirror I can get to work on it. Idk why its not letting me download......
i dled it no problem, looks like each notification icon is built into the apps apk, ie the gmail notification icon is located in the gmail.apk
most of them are located in the framework-res.apk.
edit: so i pulled all the ones i saw, i can never seem to MM to work so i dont make the themes but ill post the images if someone wants to make it
i labeled the folders so you know which APK they came from
again this is NOT a theme, it is just the icons in folders
In system-framework-drawablehdpi

most of them r there of course, but some of the other ones (ie GMail, and Mail) where located in their own APKs, i have posted all the icons i saw, if i missed one let me know and ill find it
ok there is something wrong with my phone. when i try to download any file now it wont do it and and the .rar you posted when i download it, it comes up as a .bin....
nvm its only your .rar file that keeps downloading as a .bin anyway you can change it to a zip?

Are you referring to the small icons on the top left of the main window of the screen shots of the ROM? Those are from the apk's.
Ok so I made a mm theme for the icons. I will work on the gmail and others once I get home. Just unzip this into your mm theme file and go. Make sure you have a backup because I don't have away to reverse this yet.

It is a MM theme. Download Metamorph. Make sure that you have S-off or MM will not run. Take the download the file put it on your sdcard in the Androidthemes dir. launch mm click on the buttom to the left to unzip the file then click on the button to the right to apply the theme.

It said the theme control file is missing.
That's just a bug in mm. Just click apply theme find the xml file and go.
I also got gmail to work. I will upload shortly. Here is a screen shot too.

Thanks man! Also, can you use this icon I made for the regular Mail instead?

Where are the gmail and mail apk's located if I want to install them through Ninja Morph instead?

[Q] how to install a pandaapps custom theme

i was looking around this weekend for a way to make custom themes. the one i found that appeared to be the easiest was through pandaapps. i made part of a theme and i wanted to try it out on my inspire, so i saved the apk file. then i put it on my sd card and installed it. i believe it installed just fine.
i've attached a screen shot of what it looks like when i try to apply the theme. i looked in the theme chooser app and i didnt see my apk file in there. anyone ever done this before?
