Theme discussion for redemptive rom

greetings all. having used redemption rom for a bit i know the quallity of heyitslou's work. so much in fact i was hesitant to switch to redemptive, kinda like contempt prior to investigation if you will. man was i being a tard. this is the hottest thing going for our dincs opening a whole new theming world to us do to the evo framework. with all the questions being asked about specific compatibility with this rom and evo themes i thought i would start a thread where we could post our experiances theming redemptive.(please excuse my typing im a chef not an office assistant.)
for myself i started with riptide9s color and clear. i love blue and his thread has some pretty cool addons too. the only problem was his theme killed the animations so i switched to pimpshits nameless blue/black theme.it is based off of riptides theme and has full animations. he like lou is contantly working to either solve individual issues or patch in requests. i even use the riptide addons as not all of them kill the animations.
so post your screenies answers, questions, etc that have to do with theming redemptive rom. also please do a thread search before you ask simple questions as the redemptive thread has a huge following and im sure its difficult to respond timely to legitimate questions. remember guys like lou and pimp**** work for free making our dincs rock so if you can please donate.

How to Make EVO themes work on Redemptive rEVOlution
How to make EVO themes work on Redemptive rEVOlution:
If you want to make EVO themes work on Redemptive rEVOlution there's only a few things to do...
If the theme includes framework-res.apk (most do) you will lose all the transitions from the Rom because this is where the files for the transitions exist this isn't a flaw in the Rom it's part of the theme. You can flash a theme with this file and it will work but if you lose your transitions that's why.
MMS: If you flash an EVO theme which includes framework-res.apk you will also lose the ability to send picture messages. I'v included this fix in the themed and un-themed versions of Redemptive rEVOlution version 1.8.
Fix for this download this app: http://bit.ly/cDzln9
Use this to delete the current apns.xml file and install a new one this will fix the MMS problem.
If the theme contains the HTC Music app or widget these will work but they won't recognize your internal storage. This is just something you'll have to live with if you want to have the themed versions or you can port the theme over to the compatible Incredible versions.
If the theme includes the PCSII.apk use 7zip if you're on windows or Ark Manager if you're on linux to delete this out of the theme's zip file. This method won't require you to have to resign the theme's zip file before you flash it. PSCII.apk is what keeps Internal storage from mounting.
These few adjustments will allow you to flash almost any EVO theme without breaking anything else.​

and on a side note pimpshits theme has the external mount fix. not sure about the mms issue as i solved that through the fix posted in redemptive thread when both were having that issue.

Scratch that. Il find it for you when I get a minute. Its in the redemptive thread if you dont want to wait.
not sure which one this is. its in the redemptive thread. browser rosie or handcent rosie.

I installed the Alpha theme, can I install the matted blue theme over it or do I have to wipe?

Worked fine for me. Flashed MattedBlue over Alpha theme and all seems to be ok.
I'd still run a Nandroid though...just in case. I did. So I can flip between Alpha or MattedBlue now

[Q] [Request] 928 Droid's Black Glass Easy Deodex Theme

Hello, I've had my Droid X rooted for awhile and now I realized how much I want to get rid of the stock theme. I want 928Droid's easy deodex theme but it appears that he has abandoned his website. Does anyone know where I can get the theme/deodexer?

A few posts down is a thread called "Themes for Stock ROM - 2.3.340". The first post has a link to a .zip file that will de-odex your phone. I don't think 928Droid's will work with 2.3.340 anyway.

Thank you very much :]

It won't. He stopped updating due to personal issues before that update was released.

If you're rooted, consider flashing Darkslide Rom over at mydroidworld.com
It has a lot of 928's themed elements in it

Thats awesome! Thanks for posting. Look forward to seeing more ports

This looks awesome, could you post a step-by-step??? I'd hate to mess up my phone theming!

Nevermind... didn't realize the ROM was for the Hero.. haha!
Update: Ok so I flashed the themed rom and nothing is different... what am I doing wrong?

i wiped my phone and flashed the themed rom but its not any different from original aospcmod, why is this. I thought it was already ported?

It didn't port properly will look into it after work @6 tonight if I need to will remove this post

Look forward to flashing yet another theme to my phone...after the bugs are worked out...I LOVE NEW THEMES!!!

Dunno if theme injector works for aospCMod(atleast not for some builds). You would think he would try it out to see if it worked before posting?!?!

Guilty I guess... this one I flashed made sure it booted and immediately rebooted to recovery and nand back to my normal rom... the black alien I ported I checked and I guess I got a little confident and assumed the miui ported with the same success.... (ported black alien before i ported miui)my apologies for any problems I caused.....guess lesson learned. Am going to try to port again and resize the. Pngs then ill check and if proper I'll post if not will be deleting this post.

Thread closed at request of OP.

Matted Blues

Anyone want this for CM7? I have it running on my phone:
Okay this is what I have:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/108799/mattedblues-cm-7.0.2.1-Inc.zip
It contains a full flash version 7.0.2.1 includes gapps ... tested working on mine but flash at your own risk. You can take a look at the zip and at least extract the framework.apk app and create a metamorph file perhaps? Either way, its not like this took too much work, I just do not know how to incorporate the custom apps into a theme .apk for t-mobiles app. Enjoy, leave comments, criticism, just hope it works.
You will need to disable signature check. Sorry

Yes by all means!! I was running the sense version, love it.

An .apk theme chooser yeah

Yes please!

Would love this, been wanting it for a long time.

I downloaded it from the Android Themes/Apps section, it said it was for the EVO but I downloaded it anyway. Every time I would switch off my WiFi, the phone would reboot. I removed the theme via nandroid and then I had no problems.

Good God post it already!

My guess is that the op had the evo version running on his phone, and yea the evo version will run but you will have problems since you are essentially loading evo framework on your phone. You guys are better off asking the dev to port the theme to the tmobile theme changer app. That way it'll work for everyone that has the theme chooser app installed.

You are definitely right. I will use it once it is ported since I had issues using the EVO version.

I have made a theme chooser apk today since im not a patient person. im still testing it, so anyone who wants to try it out for me, please click the link below and tell me if there are any problems or bugs. this is my first theme engine apk, so any feedback is appreciated.

Dont forget to donate and thank!
*btw, i know my theme doesnt have a name or a pic. it just says @string/theme_name. the theme is still usable and looks really nice! ill fix the android manifest later if everyone gives me the thumbs up.

This theme is sick dude. An official port needs to be made! In your other post about this there's obviously a want for it. Keep it up. I'd donate.

[THEME] ICS ROMS - Full Blue Theme (updated 3/26 for Evervolv p12)

I put this together real quick to get rid of the orange and green accents left behind in ICS. It is a modified framework-res.apk so flashing this will remove google accounts (just have to sign back in after reboot).
The colors I ended up with are not a perfect ICS blue but it's better than orange.
***UPDATED for Evervolv p12 but I did not include the dark apps. Just framework-res.apk... and some useless but fun CWM imagery.***
Previous versions include the inverted (holo dark) Contacts.apk, Mms.apk, and Calculator.apk from the Gnex forums here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467139.
If you don't want those apps you can open the update.zip in 7zip and delete them from /system/app directory.
Instructions:
Boot into Recovery (tested with CWM 5.something)
Nandroid Backup
Flash attached zip
Reboot
Works with:
Evervolv p12
Evervolv p9
72ls1's AOKP v.05
Abduction v1.5 HWA
Abduction v1.5 no hwa
Download the appropriate zip based on the rom you are using.
Please hit thanks if you use this mod... or maybe just cause you appreciate the effort!!!

thanks man. hopefully you can keep these up as the ICS ROMs progress.

We'll see... I batch process most of it so its not too tough. I'm probably gonna do this to any new update I flash so I think its safe to say that it will stay relatively up-to-date.

will this work with 72's AOKP V5? I don't know how much has changed, so figure I better check with you before trying it out. Thanks.

thanks, im on 72's aokp as well but i'd like to try it out

Yeah it works on v5
Sent from my Droid Incredible using XDA App

any chance you can do one for the abduction ics rom, it would be much appreciated

please make this work with Abduction ICS ROM please and thanks

Will do guys. Using old faithful (McSense) for a while to take a break from the drama of ICS but doesn't take me long to whip one up. Give me a day or so.

Ok just did a quick comparison and some 7zip trickery. Should be working with both versions of Abduction v1.5. Remember to backup, download appropriate attachment, and let me know how it goes.

Updated for Evervolv p12. I'm probably gonna take down the previous versions... Is anyone still using the older versions/roms?
