This tool will open any AOSP based rom or theme (as long as the file structure is correct) and optimize and zip align everything.
Simply grab your rom or theme and place it in this folder (should work from anywhere but you need to full path from where the cmd file is run). Now click on the reopto_runner.cmd and it will ask you where the rom is (name) that you want to optomize, type the name of the rom and hit enter, it will do the rest.
Final output of the re-optimized (double pass with 2 different png optimizers) rom will be named rom-optoed-signed-finished.zip this will be exactly the same rom except the script will optomize every png in every apk found in the system/app and system/framework-res.apk. It will also zipalign all these same apks and finally will sign the zip file. When its done just rename the rom-optoed-signed-finished.zip to what ever you want and its ready to flash.
What this won't do is make your zip file (rom, theme, update zip) flashable unless its already set up to be flashable... meaning you'll still need your update-script in the com.google.android folder to be there. Its does sign your zip file for you though.
I put this out there as its some of the scripting and tools I have made to help me in theming and rom hacking.
Feel free to use any part of this to help you in any scripting you do.
Sweet, you are the man. Going to try it out now.
I'm going to try this on the MIUI ROM!

I have only tried this method on AOSP based roms the script should work on any rom or theme or update zip that follow this structure in the top level. system/app/*apk and system/framework/framework-res.apk, which is pretty much all of them.
The script takes about 10 minutes or so to run on cm6 rom and is really quick on most of the themes here. So for instance you could use it to make sure or re optimize a theme or roms.
feel free to tire it apart and use it in other fashions. I can guarantee it will shave some about of space of any rom or theme along with the zip aligning of every apk. If its a short request I'll post some more automated tiny scripts to todo various stuff.
Little confused. I run any aosp rom through this and it makes it compatable with the hero? ( sorry for the newb question)

No I haven't released that script yet. This just optimizes a rom that's all.

Thank you for the praise, wife been complaining about doing stuff for free so I might have to post my pay pal account with a wife complaining button.
I might just release a script that does it for you. mdpi to mdpi (or hdpi to hdpi) no matter what rom is fairly easy todo. Of course it can only theme what it can match but it will do it for you.
For a more in depth description would take some time so I'll probably have to do it some time later.

maybe but he should have done the png opto and zipaligning already. I do add another png opto that most people dont do which will squeeze out another couple of kb, was able to shrink cm6 by 16 or so kb, which doesnt seem like alot but every bit counts.
You could use it to just see, like whenever you d/l a new rom run this on it and compare the file size, or load the rom and run a linpack and then opto it and then reload it and then do a linpack and see what you get. Some themers don't zipalign there themes and don't opto there pngs, and I have yet to see anyone use optipng and the other png opto program i use as a double pass system of optimizing pngs.
I like to use it for my themes or roms as it automates the hole process. Try it out if you use it on a rom it will give you a new optoed copy that is already sign and ready to flash... one click

Sounds good . Of course, when you say "every rom" you only mean AOSP roms, right? I'd suppose it wouldn't be able to rip, for instance, Nfinite's latest rooted Stock ROM apart and png optimize/zipalign it? If it could, holy crap. On top of the fact I use Odex, that would be amazing.

should work on that to since it only looks at pngs and apk. it will onyl zip align the framework-res.apk and the system/app apk's. Actually try it out I never have but it should work.
remember to nand before you flash it but you should be a ok, as I can't see any reason why it would work.

Hmm. But will I see a difference? Doesn't HTC have their own specific framework-res apk? I'd love to get into ROM themeing, so I've been poking around the ROMs for some time now.
THEMES ARE IN POST 10 ON THIS PAGE
In the UOT Kitchen it shows we can now change our window animations. I have tried and tried cooking files with no success. I had some spare time today and did a little searching and found THIS thread that shows how do change them without using the kitchen. I chose "Flip" and I dont notice any bogging down from them, its the same as before. Really cool looking too!
Copy N Paste from OP
Below are four new android UI animations created by Stale Bread, these will change how things popup and show on screen.
There are two ways to apply new animations first is Metamorph and second is to manualy copy new animations to your android phone.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqrBF0TE3Qk
End Copy N Paste
I tried the Metamorph method and got FC all over the place, had I rebooted recovery and wiped Dalvik this may not have been the issue. What I did instead was open my themes framework and delete the anim file and replace with the animations I chose, Flip. Rebooted recovery and reflashed my theme and then wiped Dalvik cache, I am using firerats so I had to reboot recovery again to flash FR-boot but all is well FC's are gone and I have new animations!
There all also videos in the original OP to help you select what you like best...

I dont see any reason it wouldnt work. AOSP removes quite a few of the regular animations but by doing this MOD you are just replacing them with different ones.

Just tryed it on AOSP 0.9.9.1 and no go on the animations. However, it is nice to know that even with UOT Kitchen not having the AOSP rom posted in their system as one that works with the kitchen, I was able to get a battery and bootanimation to work.
The site does state that the animations are for the Desire Sense rom Only.
Now, that being said, I have opened the framework on the downloaded UOT package. I personally do not know what I am looking at but if someone wants to take a look at it and see if it can be modified to work with AOSP, that would be great.
Happy Holidays
It won't work using the kitchen for sure, least it hasn't for me. Did you try using the link in my OP? It shows how to replace with Metamorph, what I did was open the file from the kitchen with 7zip, open framework, open the folder named res and scroll down and deleted the whole folder named anim. I then opened the animation I downloaded the same way using 7zip and did a drag and drop of the file called anim, taking the animations and putting them in kitchen framework. Close that out and put your modified kitchen zip on SD and flash, then before boot wipe dalvik. Should work
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
Yep, tried that too. However I am not familiar with creating apk files. Something may have gone wrong when I rezipped the framework file.
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
They work just fine on AOSP 9.9.1, or any other version for that matter. Somewhere somehow you are doing something wrong. This is NOT done through UOT KITCHEN! HERE is the LINK that shows how to do this with Metamorph. I did not use Metamorph, I edited the framework apk myself. BUT metamorph does the same, just be sure to boot into recovery and WIPE DALVIK cache or you will get tons of FC's. I am posting a theme I use for AOSP (fLiPAOSPTHEMELS7_signed.zip), TwoPointTwo by thoughtlesskyle. It has some Icon changes plus it has the animations called FLIP. Flash, WIPE DALVIK, reboot/reboot recovery and flash firerats boot if you are using his MOD. Takes a few minutes to boot as you wiped Dalvik. This theme is NOT MINE, it is thoughtlesskyle's TwoPointTwo Theme with some Icons I changed via kitchen Check it out
I am slso posting the theme in the screenies. This is flashed over jaybob's BlackMod 6.1 stable build (FLIPinBLUE theme). I am sure it will work over any of his builds, but not so sure about cm6.1 stable. I did not make any of the 2 themes from scratch, they are mixtures of thoughtlesskyle's TwoPointTwo Theme AND hackahero's port of Incognito Remix AospMod 0.9.9.1.
MAKE NANDROIDS No promise of support as new build releases are posted. These things take a couple hours and with so many ROMs it is nearly impossible to support all of them I will keep jaybob's up to date though, as thats the ROM I use daily

Here is where you can modify battery icons and a whole lot more! You must pull framework apk from your rom and use that at the end of kitchen. Do not use framework supplied by them. To get your framework apk, use a program called 7zip, open your rom (not extract) then drag and drop the framework apk to your desktop. Then upload that through the kitchen. The will give you a flashable file, put that on sd card and flash in recovery

Can you not flash it like I explained to you in the AOSPmod thread? That seems to be the method that works for everyone using the htc hero. Again take rom and remove anim file inside framework apk. Replace with the animations you want. Reflash rom and wipe dalvik before you reboot. If you are using a theme replace anim folder in theme rather than rom.

Have a screenshot?
If you are comfortable pulling your own framework-res.apk, you can use UOT Kitchen to make your own custom circle battery icon. If you are just using the stock framework, check to see if UOT already has it. If they do not, pull it out of the ROM's zip file.
If you have already modified your framework-res in some way (like flashed a theme) then pull it directly from your phone to use on UOT kitchen.
Make a nandroid backup, of course, but so far I've had 100% success using UOT Kitchen.

Here are some of the PNG files being used by g00gl3's attachment.
If you're ever curious, you can always explore an .apk file using a zip program. I opened g00gl3's attached zip, navigated to system/framework, then opened framework-res.apk
Inside of framework-res, look for the .png files that start with "stat_sys_battery"
In this case, they can be found under res/drawable-hdpi-v4

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.

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.

i guess not i read a bunch about just getting the theme chooser.apk and uploading that and it is supposed to add an apk to the zip it gives u to download
1. Go to the Kitchen page
2. Browse through the available mods and choose what you want (don't forget to press Generate preview if there is such a button)
3. Go to the file upload section and upload the required files, or choose the ROM you use from the kitchen's list (most roms in the list are for HTC Desire)
Files you need to upload:
Froyo rom: framework-res.apk
Gingerbread rom: framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk
Gingerbread with sense rom: framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk and com.htc.resources.apk
Cyanogenmod7 rom: Cyanbread.apk or Androidian.apk or any theme for ThemeChooser (rename as you like it to apear in theme menu)<----thats what im using
NOTE 1: if you’re uploading theme apk then do not upload any other files; you’re just wasting traffic, because the kitchen will ignore additional files
NOTE 2: Font packs and boot animation do not require files to be uploaded. If you choose only those mods then you get a download without a queue.
4. Go to the summary section. All chosen mods must have a green background. If there is a mod in red background it means you didn’t finish it.
Press Submit work to kitchen
5. Remember the UOT file name (your order number).
6. Go to the Pickup page and wait for your file to appear (it can take from 5min to 1hr or more)
7. Download UOT zip into SD card of your phone
8. Reboot into recovery
9. Wipe cache and dalvik-cache (just in case). Do not wipe data / factory reset.
10. Flash UOT zip
11. Reboot phone

So you can actually take a CM7 Theme Chooser theme and use that for UOT Kitchen? Then apply it to any ROM?

No. Theme Chooser themes only work with roms that have themechooser integration. Otherwise its a lot of work to port.

Use the system files like framework-Res.apk and systemui.apk and set file type to optimus, worked perfect for me.

Hey Kwes - I have not tried UOT with New Clip because you mentioned themes may break things. Does that also apply to UOT? I wanted to change the color of all the items on the status bar to the hex ICS color. Should that be OK if I do not change anything else?
Or is there a better way to do that?

As long as you use the systemui and framework-res from the rom it shouldn't break anything. But some sketchy edits I made in framework as work a rounds might not let you edit it with uot but you can always try. I'm gonna update soon if I can just get these lock screens right.

Thanks. I will give it a try tonight or tomorrow. I want to make a set of all gingerbread green status bar icons and a set of all ICS blue status bar icons. If it works I will send them to you and you could add them to New Clip (if you want to) as an option for people that want everything matching, but do not want a complete makeover theme.
I just think it looks nice when the battery, clock, signal, wifi, etc match in color. Fond of ICS blue right now. I think I know how to repack it so anyone can use it. I'll PM you later if I get it done.
Edit: Well...that was a disaster. I just changed the status bar icons and added a different battery. Result was a boot loop twice and then a black screen requiring a battery pull. Restored my back up and will give it another try. Maybe a bad file download?

An all new update is just around the corner. Kwes1020 has some magic he is holding back until its right. Old weapon 3.0 works fine with UOT. I am not a real theme guy. I answer easy questions for noobs and piggyback off the hard work of others, but always give credit and thanks to the real guys. If the update does not happen as expected, I will take another stab at it.
I love learning new things and android has become an addiction. If you want to try, read up on topic. Tons of good info out there. UOT is simple to use. The trick is making the zip you create compatable with every one else. There is a mini tutorial in the moonman thread.
My First Time
So I sat for over an hour making my first OUT kitchen Theme if that is what you call it, I am waiting for it to cook as you say.... hope all goes well when I flash it to my stock Gingerbread rom......
