fyi for any of you themers out anxious to theme Stock rooted deodexed GB. Trying to save you trouble here. Normally the 1X and 3G icons in the statusbar are located in /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/(files) . in this version they are located in /system/app/SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-hdpi. thank me after you dont spend hours (30min) looking for them in system apps lol

Nothing to major and cant really call it a theme, but then i didnt know what to put in the title lol, this is my first mod as i am not a themer lol i just change some icons here and there but thought i might share this one
Well i hate the Sense battery icons and absolutely love the original android battery icons so ll ive done is put the original bacttery icons in an update.zip to flash over the NexDESIRE ROM by Manup.
Worked for me on 1.1, untested on others so always perform a Nandroid
Thanks
good work, i havent tried it but what i wanted to know is if its possible to get the original status bar over a nexus rom?
Yeh should be possible, what rom is it for?
I have released two Metamorph Themes for Statusbar Hero (Desire) to get it over normal Nexus One ROMs.
It's here in this forum, I think second or third page.
I have made the Battery Percent in the middle again in CM-5.0.6 so far its working and i havent had any issues yet but i am still testing with it...
Services.jar is from CM-5.0.6 with moditfications made by me with the help from:
david1171 - Pointing me in the right file paths
sn0wmis3r - His theme Inspired me and pointed out the cc3.jar doesnt work with the percent icons. lol
brandenk - Created the battery icons.
enomther - Who made the guide to manually make text black to white
Cyanogen - The creator of CM
UPDATE 4/30/2010 - My custom made Services.jar is now able to be downloaded. I know it works for what i have with my theme. anyones elses theme i do not know about. This is not a update.zip nor a morph themed install. this is unzipped to services.jar. I made my own custom CM-5.0.6 the day after it was release and have been working on it since then till it was finished on 04/21/2010 and working.
How to use my services.jar:
If you bake your own Cyanogenmod-5.0.6-N1 Rom like i do, and also theme them with the circle battery and would like to have it centered plus running as a Black Themed base this is for you.
1. Download and unzip CM-5.0.6-N1 to its own folder.
2. Make the changes to the files that you need to do to make your theme black and with circle battery.
3. Unzip the services.jar into the /system/framework/ folder
4. repackage it up as a store only zip with the name of the zip not containing any spaces at all. (example: CM-5.0.6-N1-Themed.zip Not CM 5.0.6 N1 Theme.zip)
5. then sign your newly made custom rom of CM.
You are then ready to flash it to your phone.
NOTE: I am not responsible for your mistakes. do a nano backup before anything to your phone always.
If your wanting this into a morph well then you need to download this services.zip and extract the classes.dex file from the services.jar and place it where it needs to go.
I'll be working on a morph as soon as i can i have other projects i am helping with other on and i am busy with personal work crap as well lol...
again this is set for a black theme with white text and a centered percent numbers with the circle battery.
I can help you make the morph for the battery if you'd like. Just pm me the images and the services.jar with only the battery placement configurations?
I'm looking for the circle battery aswell
Sweet alright well i know sn0wmis3r will be updating his black matte morph soon as well. I will be making my own over the week. If i need help I will take you up on your offer Papichulo06 :-D
Thank you!
What color? I'm using the blue one found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=652450

Just wanted to let you know, the Kspec morph is currently working on my N1 running CM 5.0.6. I used the Lite 1.1 version.
Are we talking about the same thing or am I missing something?
Dunno I havent seen what his icons are and if it shows the battery percent in center or not. i'll look into that later and find out what battery icon he has.
What exactly did you edit to get it to change?
I accomplished it by going in and using PSPad's text diff feature to see what was different in 5.0.5.3 com/android/server/status/StatusBarIcon.smali to the one in 5.0.6, and changed pretty much every difference, and I got it working (or well, I just copied the 5.0.5.3 one to 5.0.6, but when I did it for the different versions of the trackball successions services.jar, then I did it that way, only changing certain things).
Copied kinda like what you did only made sure i did not change pswitch and some other numbers. I dont use the trackball successions i dont believe (unless that built into 5.0.6 then i do) but so far my trackball works fine lights up with no issues. even on the live default wallpaper on cm-5.0.6 it works fine. I used Notepad++ and just used the clone to make one side one document and the other side the one i am messing with (basically the same thing but i just like notepad++ more). I'll up the services.jar file this weekend for sure.
With Pix now
can you share your wallpaper?
Wallpaper is fireworks Live Wallpaper in market. it will allow you to select different types of backgrounds with fireworks going on. :-D
Re: [WORKING] Circle Battery w/Percent in Middle CM-5.0.6 w/PIX

okay with helix 0.7 go to the config part and under the shortcuts advanced only you will see "Show Dock" that should put the dock on there for you. :-D
Do you have the newest version from HelixLauncher2 from Market? This has the dock.

Here are some Sprint Lovers Icons for MikG 3.0. Now because using certain MikTweaks alter the ROM's SystemUI.apk, I have made two versions, one with a normal notification drop down and another with an inverted one. As explained by aamikam, when applying the inverted notification drop down, the SystemUI.apk is replaced with one that he has on his FTP server. This means that if you use this, it will get rid of the notification icons that I have changed. Although you cannot use that tweak, the semi-trans tweak will still work, so you can use that one as you please.
Also, as advised by jadeboy7, since the SystemUI.apk isn't the only file replaced when using the inverted notification drop down tweak, you would want to apply it with MikTweaks first, then flash the appropriate file from the OP.
As with any other rom/theme/mod, I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone, I will however do my best to try to help solve any problems you may experience.
These really dress up MikG, awesome job.
Is it possible to have these icons ported over to the Sprint Updated 3 Final ROM or any ROM that is 4.67 / GB 2.3.5 based? When I install the current Sprint Lovers Icon pack, I reboot and am prompted with a message of "Too many words..." message that won't go away. I assume the installer/APK was made for 4.67 / GB 2.3.3 and not the latest?
Any help would be appreciated!
I would like to change the default icons on some of the ROMS that I use. I have looked through the files and folders on my phone from Root Explorer as well as using a PC to explore. I have found that on many roms I can find a few files that are named "icon_....". However the "artwork" for the icon that I see on my homescreen or app drawer are completely different. Is there a way to replace either manually replace or a ODIN or some other installer that will use any icon's that I would create and want to put into a rom of my choice.
Have I explained this good enough?
Icons such as the default MMS icon or phone icon, etc....
you can use a different launcher (go launcher for example) and use different theme icons. I usually mix and match from a couple different themes myself.
As for changing the icons without using a different launcher you can cook your own themes in UOT kitchen or dsixda, however they require more extensive knowledge of android
Thanks jigglynuts. I have used different launchers Go, ADW, TW, Honeycomb and others. I have also used UOT. I have had marginal success with UOT. There are a LOT of available options there as well. Here is the real question....I don't want to "steal" anyone's hard work. I really like the black icons that RaverX3X put into the unnamed ROM RC2. Is there a way of peeling those out of the ROM and putting them into a different ROM such as ICBINB? If this is a wicked taboo move, then I apologize. If it is cool, how can this be done?
hopefully Raver or another themer will chime in on exactly how that's done. I believe you need to go inside each .apk file and pull out the drawable folders and find which one has the icon inside it. Then you can extract the image, edit it, and put it back into the apk when you are done.
I'm sure that's an oversimplified version of how it's done though.

Actually it's pretty spot on... My dad themed his Rom by doing that and that's what he was telling me to do.. he also said that you can ether pull the .png files that you want to change... edit them and put them back. Or You can get icons from searching the internet and just make sure they are named exactly how the original is named. I just can't find the ROM I want lol...
Just for starter purposes I want Stock GB..
I'm currently running
GingerBread stock
Kernel: Blastoff-v2
Modem: KG4
My whole journey started with "Why can't I send long txts" Dad said to go to XDA and Root the phone. Blastoff gave me CWM and the Modem KG4 fixed the txting and gps issues... as well as took my signal back into 4g! I figure if I'm gonna keep messing with stuff... I want to do themes...
