Bionix Theme "Nuke Green"

Ok im getting pretty good at editing frameworks and finally got a working theme for bionix!!! I think it looks pretty good, it gives Bionix Frost a cooler look!!! but let me know what you guys think. The pics will be posted in a minute.
Stuff Ive Themed So Far:
Nuke Green Status Bar
Themed Drop Down Menu w/New Icons,Transparent Background and Custom Galaxy Tab!!
Download and Slider Bars are Themed
Pop Up Menus Glow
Usb icons Are Changed
Lockscreen Themed
Like everybody else says im not responsible for bricks!! I have had this theme all day testing with no problems but this is just version 1 ill be adding more to the theme as i go. Also note i had a force close of titanium backup right after pushing the files not sure why just rebooted and never had a problem again and yes titanium back still works perfect i checked.
Just unzip and push both files to system/framework then reboot.

Heres the pics enjoy

Looks good. Look in res/layout/status_bar_expanded.XML to find the lines for the white background on your notification pulldown. ;-)

I know uot gives the option becuase i made those white parts black it even shows it in the preview but when i cook it, it changes to white. Im try to find it in the drawable-hdpi file to change it manually.

you have to decompile framework-res.apk in order to convert the xml's from binary to text, then recompile once done.

the drop down menu runs from twframework-res.apk and framework-res.apk. i don't know which changes it so i always cook the status bars the same in both files. i think if u try again u should get in done in uot kitchen.

Yeah i always cook both files the same way i just think theres something diffrent about the bionix frameworks? would stock kd1 frameworks work on bionix? Im probably just going to edit the xml and be done with it. Thanks for the freedback.

Ok krylon i decompiled it with apk by putting the framework-res.apk in the "place-apk-here-for-modding" folder then hitting decompile then it decompiled it to the projects folder then i changed the status_bar_expanded but how do i compile it back?? apk ask me for a project number and the only one that shows up is the original apk??? Also i added a pic below let me know if i changed the right thing. I circled the color code that changed it to black #0000 it was originally #FF000 wich i think is white right?? thanks for helping this noob out

Lockscreen files&Instructions|Updated 4/2

Everybody has got different framework-res(theme/icons and others) so i decided to upload files which will work on every version of stock 2.3.3 rom u have downloaded.
Instructions:
In my rar file u have got folders with lockscreen files inside.U will ned ur framework-res to get lockscreen working.Pull ur framework-res.apk using rootexplorer(or from rom)system>framework>framework-res.apk
Easiest way to do this:
Open ur framework-res with winrar/7zip and go into res/drawable hdpi.Then copy my files(choose ur lockscreen)into drawable hdpi.Make a flashable zip and flash via xrecovery.Lockscreen will be changed.
In zip is folder framework(zip/system/framework).Put ur edited framework-res in folder and u are ready to flash.
If this help u feel free to press THANKS.

Cool, I was thinking of something like this too.. It would be great if someone could make a simple theme kitchen that could add the files to the apk's and put it all in an xrec zip. Then we could just make "theme packs" that could be installed on any rom. And using different pieces (lockscreen,status bar,etc..)from different themes would be a lot easier for noobs (and 'advanced users' too!).

Cant say I follow u 100% but this sounds promising so when I get a chance im gonna look in to this and maybe give it a shot. Thanks for ur efforts on this.

Metamorph works on x10? How come no one ever mentions using it? Yes, it would be great to use that or zipthemer, I didn't know we could. Is it pretty easy/straightforward?

I have no idea if it works, but on the FreeX10 it works ! [this was the 2.2 Froyo one]
I'll test it tonight and get back. But I'm pretty sure it'll work ...

Thanks for this, have used 6 of your icon sets to create 6 framework-res.apk on my sd card. Can now copy, paste and reboot to have any one I like.
I made all mine using root explorer to extract my framework-res.apk and inserted your images. Then zipped and renamed from .zip to .apk and then copied back into system/framework. Happy days

[Q] Green Gingerbread icons

I have successfully used the UOT Kitchen to modify the icons and fonts, etc. but I now want to add the "green if connected to Google" icons which I didn't see in the kitchen.
Can someone explain how this can be done? Can I just modify the framework-res.apk or is this another kind of tweak or fix??
Thanks
PS: I can't see any themes around anymore that offer this (I am on WB v5 + DL custom kernel at the moment)

If you are on stock rom you can use Achotjan flashable zip in android development section (i can't post here the link cause i'm on mobile but you can easily find it watching on achotjan threads on his profile)..otherwise if you are on a different rom..you can copy and replace icon.png images from achotjan framework to your! good luck

Thanks, I don't want a new ROM - just the green icons. I currently have green icons but not the ones that only go green when you are connected to Google services.
I am looking for JUST that part only.

Sent from my X10i using XDA App

I would like to be able to do it myself as I already have a customised framework and systemUI.apk.
If someone could explain the process that would be great.

you just need to replace the correct icons in the framework-res.apk and systemui.apk then replace them on your phone.
The way i did it was copy .apk file to computer, change extension to .rar, open it in winrar (not extract), extract the hdpi-drawable folder then replace icons, copy that hdpi-drawable folder with the new icons back into winrar and it will ask you to repack the .rar, after that change the extension back to .apk and copy it to the correct folder. The framework-res.apk one is ok to copy back but if you do the systemui.apk one you will get endless fc until you can restart your phone so i think you have to install it through flashtool?

I think that you have to replace the images without extract the entire apk otherwise you need to resign it when you finish! Anyway..framework is not involved..wifi and signal icons are sustemUI related only..i will upload it in few hours..then you can watch inside for the green icons and do it yourself! Pay attention..cause if you do something wrong probably the phone won't boot up or gives fc!

Thanks for the file. I am able to change the icons using the kitchen, but I need to understand how just replacing the icons gets them to change colour when connected to Google?? Is the code already there and the icons are all the same colour so we just don't see it with the stock icons?
I have made other changes to my SystemUI so I don't want to lose those changes - that's why I want to be able to change my own files.
Is it really just a case of changing the icons to get the desired effect? Is it some specific icons that are needed, or any icons? *still confused*

Mate..open the file that i post..inside you can find systemUI.apk..opne it with winrar and extract drawable-hdpi folder to your desktop..you will see all your icons..the images named "....fully.png" are colored green!! You must replace your current icon in your custom SystemUi with this ones!! Is it more clear now?

do you mean how the data icon and the signal bars change from green to white/grey?? cause if so then yes just changing the .pngs will be fine cause i did it with my own systemui/framework.

Thanks all. That's what I wanted to know.

ICONS on APP Drawer

Do you guys know how to replace the icons on the app drawer??
any way like flashing it?
thanks...

fastest way : use one of the launcher (go launcher,adw,etc) and then download the theme....
other way : decompile,change icon, compile back some apk (CMIIW)....but I never try it before, so I don't know which apk you must decompile.... sorry for that...
I'm just a nubie

You have to change the apk's icons one by one if you don't use any launchers that supports icon packs (stock launcher)

just place in the last map your icon rename it like thevicon in there and zip it again

Softkey icons

I know that the softkeys can be changed to display words instead of the icons. I have found some images that have them as such but can't seem to get to work when using the custom framework maker. Am I missing something or does anyone have text image files that will work.

are the imgs u have to replace them pngs? easiest way is to rightclick framework-res.apk and open with 7zip. then drang new pngs over ones in assests folder.
then try and drag that new eddited apk into framework maker. to make a package to flash.

won't that create a 7zip file? that was the only problem i had with the themer, everything worked to remove the ticker history and weather. no fc's..yet.

Well the softkeys have to be alighned. Open existing PNGs in paint or whatever and alighn new ones and save. Then run themer.

thank you, checked the sizeds and they were different. now stuck at the decomling stage in themer.

Your making it way more difficult than it should be lol.
Look for older soft keys posts in our theme section.
There are easier ways in there. No decompile needed for softkey.
