[Theme]ICS theme[UCKK1, KK2,KK4,KL2]14-toggles fully themed

i have pulled all these pngs from many, many ics themes to make my own for the stock roms who don really want to flash a custom rom.
Toggles include reboot, download and recovery for those on stock that dont have an extended power menu, one flash and now you do..
Instructions:
Place zip on sd card
wipe cache and dalvik cache
fix permissions
flash theme
reboot
this is intended for non-themed stock roms, if you flash over any of the themed roms you will probably have issues. I am just giving love to the ones who like the stock functionality but want a little ICS eye candy, and handy toggles. Youve been warned! If you flash over themed custom rom and then have issues and force closes , i dont want to hear it..thank you
Once again i am not responsible if your phone melts...
This theme features 14 toggles(hard coded in by me)no external app
ICS bootanimation
ICS transition animations
Themed apps include:
Voice search
Voice recorder
tw calaender
twcalculator
tw30 launcher
SystemUI
Sound player
Settings(lockscreen menu in but not working yet, still modifying jars)
settings provider
Phone
music player
media provider
MMS
LatinIME
Job manager
Gmail
Gallery
Email Widget
Email
Dialer
Contacts
Clock package
Camera
Browser..

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium

ok cool..thanks !!

just in case any of you were thinking of trying this out on custom rom regardless of instructions, I already tried on Infused 2.3 and it gives bootloop after flash. =/
Edit: Also will let you know that this will result in needing to reflash back to stock then to the custom rom you had before. So dont try it if you havent backed anything up. I only did this because I was already backed up and was planning on flashing back to Froyo anyways. So i just took a chance on it. Now flashing Infused 1.6 as we speak.

Infuse 2.3 is not even close to UCKK1, 2, 4 or UCKL2....that's why I specifically clarified that in op...so this question wouldn't arise...but yet it did anyway....go figure

He said that he tried regardless of instruction. he wasnt asking a question. He actually read the op. I understand that its annoying when people dont follow directions, but you need to give people the benefit of the doubt. We all appreciate the work you do, and it would be easier if you just ignored the posts that you didnt like. And please try to read what others post carefully before responding in a negative way. thanks again for all that you do

The reason I put it in the op is so these questions wouldn't be asked..period...but people don't listen...I wasn't being hateful...but I post as much in the op so people wont ask a question they know the answer too....anyone who reads the op should automatically know that it wont work with infused rom...so the question or comment should have never been posted. That's why I commented...I don't know how much more clearer I can make the op be...but I will edit the op with a list of roms this is compatible with so this does not come up again.

I think you are misunderstanding me. I was just trying to tell you that he wasnt even asking a question. he read the op and knew that the theme wasnt designed for infused, but he tried it out to see if it could possibly work and then posted to let everyone else know not to try it.

This..........

Would it be possible for you to maybe ppost links to individual apks that might work (albeit in a standalone method) with Infused 1.6 (Froyo)? or any custom rom for that matter. Such as links to the dialer apk, boot animation, etc. Maybe the thread could just be turned into a repository for such links along with your project. It just seems useless to post something that can only be installed on stock devices considering that probably most people on these threads have a custom rom on their infuse. Dont mean to be rude or anything either at all. Thanks though!

screenshots please

This is for the stock roms that were posted in the op. If you are not on those roms look else where or make your own. Your asking someone to make things just for you. It's not useless for the people who run stock roms. Your post was a little rude.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997

Yep...most people do run custom Rome that are fully themed...but there are a few that do run stock rooted roms and are happy that way....this is for them...they need some love too...this ain't Burger king...

Dual boot two roms

Dual booting is possible in Android.
Is it possible to dual boot 2 roms on our.phone ?

Its just sad you know...
WHEN WILL YOU START READING!!!!!
It clearly says:
"BootManager will not work with Samsung devices that are not listed because of the way Samsung handles the boot partition. Motorola phone's with a locked bootloader will also not currently work. Check compatible phones above."
which you can find on:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.drx2.bootmanager
which is already provided on:
http://m.lifehacker.com/5826050/how-to-dual-boot-multiple-roms-on-your-android-phone
So start reading and stop asking!!!!
Also please change the thread name to [REQ] or [QUESTION]
It is misleading.

We need dual boot kernel For that

There are even multi boot kernels. I was using a g3 with multiboot kernel. I have personally tested it out myself and its good, however no1 has stepped out to compile a multiboot kernel. Anyway its not very important, worse come to worse, just use nandroid backups to restore and switch roms

Don't understand how u "research" cause last I checked the app used for Dual boot was Boot Manager and not Rom Manager.I already provided u with the info needed but since you dont want to read.
Do you know a thing known as google?

Go to the first link that is android market then go click on More info you'll get your answer.
And I'm sry to be rude but I request everyone to let him find this on his own.He just refuses to search anything before asking.

There's no need to be sowy mate! The guy is either thick, or just plain noob who doesn't want to use his gray matter for thinking and analyzing! Most of his post's are plain trolling & pointless. and thru such posts he has now become a "senior" post in just 3 months time! :banghead:

[Q] [q] install custom rom to my skyrocket sgs2 i7272 please helpp

I need help. Im a noob and i want to install the new rom for skyrocket (4.1.2) . My phone is running the official 4.0.4 , its not root, and i want to install the rom trought odin or other method that could help me, i need instruction step by step, i dont want to break my phone./ i intalled a cwm recovery. I have the zip file..
But im not sure if thats the roms with the aparrence of sgs3 jelly bean 4.1.2 , please help me

Please read the stickies. Vincom has tried to make them as helpful and easy to follow for users who are let's say "new to the process" . I could break it down for you, but doing some in depth reading on your own is certainly necessary based off your post. If you read thoroughly and still have remaining questions then come on back. Nobody wants to see you brick so read up.

First of all, listen to Mike. And btw, the one jelly bean rom that has touchwiz like the sgs3 is by this guy named mohan. Yeah, and look up some information on different roms before installing. Try out cyanogenmod, slim bean, and many others because you may like one better than the other haha.

liste dude , dont waste my time reading if you not gonna write something to help , this forum is for ppl that can help and give ideas ok? Dont write on my post if u dont like it

If you have the zip file and have read the stickies, then in cwm you're going to factory reset, wipe/format data, system, and cache. Then install the rom. You'll have to then sign into Google and re-install your apps. Back everything up before you start
The stickies will have greater detail, but pay attention on how to do the wipes. And make sure the zip you have is for your specific device, all s2´s are not the same. If you use the wrong one you will brick you phone.
