Nicely done.

Nicely done! Also not my style but good to know this is here!
I currently have magiclocker installed as a replacement lockscreen because of the no caller ID on the lockscreen issue.

Man... i wish i was as good as you are... ..
i don't know what's the taste of people...really hard to guess... I spent atleast 5 hours to look for icons on web and resize and incorporate them coz i was totally new to theming stuff...
well i m it out of it for now due to lack of positive feedback ....
atleast it will open doors for others who want to try themselves...
Will upload source files and method of how to do it so that people can do that themselves...

How come everytime i put the framework file in te framework folder my phone restarts and then get stuck at the rom logo.
I then have to flash my rom again to get my phone started.
I did everything you said on the how to.
Maybe you know the anwser.

i hope you are not using framework.res.spk file from some other ROM.. Extract it from the ROM you are running... incompatibility issues can cause it
Secondly, makes sure it's png file format... find the files in my sample zip inside your framework file with same name... Use them as your base and edit them... Don't resize any png file and save uncompressed.. Should work easily...

And don't forget to set permissions correctly...

[ThemeTemplates] Nexus1 Stock-ERD79 - de-odex'd and 100% theme-able

!! Let the Themes Begin !!
First off ... MadProps to the our android trailblazer JF for his smali/baksmali/deodexerant toolset, w/out these, we wouldn't have this ... so HUGE THANKS!
That said ... due to his great work ... you can and *should* donate to him here ... https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=1014600
** What we got here !! **
De-odex'd app/framework for the Nexus1 Stock ERD79 build from Google and the resulting theme templates!
Everything is de-odex'd except core.jar, which is fine for theme-ing (and pretty much all other) purposes.
UPDATED: 1/13/2010 - !!!
- These are now (v2) Theme Templates. Same templates as before, except, now basically these templates no longer nuke the entire system/app & system/framework. Instead this update-script was altered to only nuke .odex files (using remtool.sh) in system/app and system/framework. This will allow users to save their manually *pushed* apps to system/app when applying a theme!
- For themers who used the older v1 templates ... simply add the remtool.sh script to the base of the theme.zip and update the META-INF/com/google/android/update-script, to get the newer functionality! Enjoy!
PLEASE NOTE: These ThemeTemplates have only been tested on TheOfficial Nexus1-Expansion v1.3 (discontinued) & Cyanogen's Makin Bacon' Addons (discontinuing .... I assume).
THIS IS NOT COMPATIBLE with cyanogen's CM-MOD-5.0 or my TheOfficial v1.4 and beyond.
They will likely work on any other STOCK Android-2.1-ERD79 based ROM's depending on what the dev has implemented.
I will maintain my own theme templates in my threads going forward, since the ROM customizations have begun. Good Stuff
These templates remain a great starting point, as well as a way for users who simply root, to still theme their own basic rooted builds.
Below are (2) theme templates ... the first is untouched plain jane, just simply de-odex'd.
The 2nd is untouched as well ... except the statusbar text's have been made white already. I did this to hopefully expedite the emergence of "black statusbar" themes quickly!!!
UnTouched - De-ODEX'd

Here's the transparent version of the GenieWidget.apk from an earlier release. I got it from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=615700 if anyone wants more information.
I figured it'd be useful for the theme folks out there. I personally prefer this over the one that came with the phone.

Is there a guide on how to theme?
I'm pretty handy with Photoshop and wouldn't mind having a go at making a theme!
Don't you simply replace the images shown in the theme? Well of course, after opening the apk file and looking at the contents. The pictures do come as indexed though, but you could simply convert them to RGB for a minute to apply more eccentric colors, and convert them back. I did this; I don't have my Nexus yet, sadly, so I don't know if my simple method really works.
Don't feel like tryin' on my G1.

How do I open this apk files? And will their be duplicate files in each apk and then I would have to replace everyone in each apk?

You can open the apk files with WinRAR, from what I've seen, the themes are set up like this. (When you open the .zip file in WinRAR)
System > Framework > framework-res.apk (which is where you really need to be) > res > drawable-hdpi is where all the images are used in the theme, from my personal understanding.
But you should talk to a professional themer, I'm just a guy who can graphic design a tad, and easily replace images. Um, and about the duplicate thing, I have no idea, I really just open the image file up, then right click on the image and edit it with my image editing program, and save - so that I don't have to extract the files myself.

Cheers for that! Will try tomorrow on my Mac hopefully should extract with UnRarX.
This pc doesn't have WinRAR so cant try it now (Family PC used for just Facebook...)
The .9.png cant just be edited,if you edit them you will need to use a tool called draw9patch in the sdk tools folder and set the guides and then re-sign the image with eclipse.

[Tutorial]Making your own theme using UOT Kitchen(WORKS WITH NEW GINGERBREAD ROMS!))

(Most of this tutorial was taken from mendozinas on XDA)
Kitchen originally was built for HTC Desire, but now it supports most devices with Android OS.
Kitchen takes files from your rom and adds modifications you choose.
I have no association with this site, just a fan of it =)
With UOT you can customize the notification bar, notification bar icons, boot animation, window animations, and much more!
THIS WORKS WITH ANY 2.2 and 2.3 ROM!
Just an example of what I did to the notification bar icons on Wolfbreak's ROM using this website.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Make a backup before you do this. I am not responsible for what happens to your device. (Tough to mess up =) )
How to use kitchen
1. Go to Kitchen page http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/
2. Browse through available mods and choose what you need (press generate preview)
3. Go to File upload section and upload your files or choose rom from kitchen's list (most roms in the list is for HTC Desire) Make sure you do this or you cannot finish your process. I have only seen Trips old 1.5 MIUI ROM and Wolfs 007.1 on the list. Send a request in to UOT Kitchen to add any ROM to the kitchen list.
OR
3. I suggest navigating to your rom, clicking system, then framework, then framework-res(for froyo ROMS only)
For gingerbread ROMS just upload the SystemUI file as well along with the step above.
4. In the same tab you will see "Select flashable zip scripting" Make sure you fill the bubble for "Amend scripting."
Cyanogenmod7 rom: Cyanbread.apk or Androidian.apk or any theme for ThemeChooser (rename as you like it to appear in theme menu)
NOTE 1: if you uploading theme apk - do not upload any other files (you're just wasting trafic, because kitchen will ignore additional files)
NOTE 2: Font packs and Bootanimation do not requires uploading files.
4. Go to Summary section. All choosen mod must be in green background. If there is mod in red background - it means you did not finished it.
press Submit work to kitchen
5. Remember UOT file name. You can wait for a kitchen to cook your request, but after 5min waiting will be stopped (nothing to worry about).
6. Go to Pickup page http://uot.dakra.lt/pickup/ and wait for your file to appear (it can take up to 30min or more)
7. Download UOT zip into SD card of your phone
8. Reboot into xrecovery and flash the UOT zip.
9. Reboot and enjoy =)
IF YOU HAVE ANY TROUBLE, JUST MESSAGE ME AND I WILL BE GLAD TO HELP
Shame you can't use it f eclair roms.

Not sure what your talking about for the stock 2.2.1 froyo, but if you download it and go to the system--> framework -->then res.apk you can find it
thanx.. although I already know how to find out problem is my framework already has battery percentage so it just keeps coming up with error when going through the kitchen hence I was hoping someone had the unmodified framework-res.apk?

Highlight system files because your uploading Wolfs Rom. Make sure you extract WB-009 Rom into a folder you can navigate to. Then when you have a folder go to the system--->framework---> Then framework res.apk. Then go to upload and then your good =)
Also make sure to highlight in "Amend scripting" instead of "edify scripting"

[GUIDE + TOOL] TO MOD YOUR OWN LOCKRING - NO EXPERIENCE OR CODE NEEDED (noobproof)

I have spent 1 and a half days creating, coding and running batch files in command prompt to ensure this will work for anyone AND ENSURE IT IS NOOBPROOF FOR EVERYONE.
UPDATE: V2 below, see below for details on changes.
The Lockring kit below is Unique to me and there isnt anything like it out there.
Here is my detailed guide to Modding your own lockscreen. LockRing kit i created is attached below and is COMPATIBLE WITH ANY SENSE 3 ROM OR Sense 3 THEME . Also Works for any Sense 3 Device, Sensation & Evo3D
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
THERE IS VERY LITTLE WORK and NO CODING INVOLVED FOR YOU. ALL YOU DO IS
You put your ROM zip in the place ROM Folder - No need to rename
Place your lockring in lockring folder - No need to rename, just make sure its a PNG file not JPG
then collect the finished file in collect recovery zip folder.
See the video guide in post 2 for how to extract lockring and how to use a new lockring
Batch files in the kit will do all the work for you.
Requirements
-Java (Java Runtime Environment) - You need this otherwise your lockring APK will not be signed and prevent installation in recovery.
-271 x 270 Lockring in PNG File Format - Easiest way to get a lockring is to google a PNG image of what you want as. e.g search for Assassins Creed PNG. Quite alot of PNGs come with a transparent background which is what u need.
1st TIME SET UP
Create a New Folder in C:\ called "Lock_Ring_Kit"
Open the lock ring kit zip file and copy all the files and folders into the folder you just created.
Guide to extract a lockring
To extract a theme and/or lockring from another ROM
IF you have seen A lockring on EVO 3d FORUM
IF you have a really cool ROM or theme and you want to take the lockscreen ring out of it.
STEP 1. Place Your ROM or THEME you want to take lockscreen from Place_ROM_ZIP_HERE
STEP 2. Click 1. Extract APKs_FROM_ROM.bat. This will automatically run 2._decode_from_APK
Step 3. Click 3. Extract lockrings (OPTIONAL).bat.
This will put lockrings from the Rom or theme into the extract_lockscreen folder. you can now use this lockring.
And the rest of the files will be placed in Mod_files_here Folder (more about this below)
Guide to mod your own LockRing
STEP 1. Delete any existing files in Place_ROM_ZIP_HERE and Place Your ROM or THEME in the folder. This will be used as a base.
STEP 2. Click 1. Extract APKs_FROM_ROM.bat. .
Once the APKs have been extracted This will automatically run 2._decode_from_APK
*If you have the apks you want to use as a base then just place them in the Place_APKs_FILE_here Folder and click Decode from APK *
STEP 3. Get your Lockring you want and put it in the Place_Lockring_here folder. Make sure your lockscreen image is flipped vertically(mirror upside down image). e.g
Sense uses upside down lockrings to display them right side up. use the 3.0.1 Flip Lockring with FSResizer.exe to flip it upside down if it isnt already.
STEP 4. Click 3.1 Replace Lockrings.bat. This is to replace the existing lockrings with your lockring
Step 5. Click 4. Encode and create recovery zip.bat.
This will Re-encode your lock ring into the APKs, sign them then produce a signed zip file you can flash in recovery
Step 6. Flash your File in clockwork and enjoy.
Additional Features
Mod_Files_Here Folder you can go into this folder and into the default folder or other skins In this folder you can replace the navigation bar in Sense homescreen, also background for widgets and clock numbers etc. care should be taken u replace pngs with the another of the same dimensions.
Backup and Restore allows u to back up 4 different lock rings + Fusion files and restore them anytime so u can work on different ones at different times,
FS resize will allow u to resize your lock ring to 271x270 and also flip it upside down if it isnt upside down. Make sure you flip not rotate!
Download Lock_Ring_Kit v2 or click the attachment below
Replace Lockrings.bat Bug Fixed
BUG FIXED in v2 -->WHEN DRAGGING AN APP TO THE LOCK RING IT WOULD SHOW THE PREVIOUS RING!
Added option to rename lockring zip to whatever you want before it is put in collect here folder
If you get system could not find file error on some occasions, its normal, as i have either asked for it to delete something but the files already deleted
just make sure u follow the process.

Hi guys sorry its late, having a problem where everything would work but when flashing in recovery nothing would happen
realised it was because it was zipping the apk up as
Fusion.apk not
fusion.apk
capital letter makes a difference!
will be ready soon
Anyone willing to test this out for me now?
twisted vision is offline!
does this work to mod the other aspects of a theme (ie, rosie, clock, widgets, etc)? or does it just do the lockscreen? The reason i ask is im looking to port a theme from the evo3d, and i was wondering if this could help.
will it work with the 2.3.4 framework ?

It will work with 2.3.4 or 2.3.3, it will work with evo 3d even.

(Stock KPM/KPH) All mods in one

I have collected all mods in one zip file so that everyone get benefit of that.
Most important is that it has complete KPH stock look. No theme is included in this.
It has following features
--CRT
--blur overscroll glow [by default]
--14 toggle ON TOP SIDE [by skin]
--Honeycomb style 1% battery
--ANIMATED PULL DOWN NOTIFICATION BAR.
I have uploaded flashable zip file. So just keep file on external sd & flash through recovery mode.
Again I have kept Pulldown notification bar as bouncing CM7 symbol...!!! Its simple but very attractive. I am sure you will like it. It runs soothly without a single error.
You need rooted, deodexed XXKPM rom with skin's cf root.
I know that here everybody is curious about battery life. I CAN ASSURE U GUYS THIS ANIMATION NOT AT ALL AFFECT BATTERY LIFE. System resources are utilised to show animation only when we pull notification bar. So a very neglighble battery is used.

First honestly I want to say that this is dedicated to Rex & his health. Hope he will recover soon.
I want to say that its not my creation guys. Really sometimes all the things are already available around us but we never pay attention towards them. This feature is already available on online UOT kitchen. But no one noticed it.
Anyway I am uploading directly flashable zip file for u. It contains all mod included which are created by our great members.
--CRT
--orange overscroll glow
--6 toggle ON TOP SIDE
--1% battery
--ANIMATED PULL DOWN NOTIFICATION BAR.
As I dont have knowledge how to creat flashable zip file I have used flashable zip file of some other theme. I have replaced inside files only. So it will show u some other name while flashing. Just ignore it

Advice: new user should keep a nandroid backup in case it gets failed (but surely it will not happen)
Installation: Flash through recovery mode ON STOCK DEODEXED KPH.
Here are the screensots.

PLEASE LET ME KNOW UR VALUABLE FEEDBACK.
It looks really awesome ....
but will it be laggy as it showed in the video ?
You have my thanks ..... I am waiting to see the interesting results you might give us brother !
Tapashocked via my gt-I9003 with a random keyboard of my choice !
it lagged as hell in the vid..................wat abt battery life !
Somewhere i have read that lag in animation can be removed by adjusting timing between two png images used in animations. Its a little complicated for me. I have never edited any xml files or used apkmanager tool. We have many brilliant theme editor developer. I think they should try for this.
my first time trying to edit any apk i decompiled it but dont rely get step 4. http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-themes/151983-animated-status-bar-pulldown-gb-roms.html i did opet the requested file,found the line but what should i add there now...?
edit:another question,not related to this.when i decompiled systemui i went to dravable hdpi i replaced ruccent pgn iccons with my own ofc used same name.they are 512x512 but when i tryed to compile it i got error,and question is it system apk,anyway cant compile it back any suggestion?
I smell heavy memory hogs.
Do you know that SystemUI.apk of I9003 does not have status_bar_background_animation.xml??? Even if we copy it from Atrix it may or may not work as it would require support from whole system framework, but am not sure at the moment until we give a shot at it...
Ya...atrix have that file & we dont have. But still there must be some way.
On internet i come to know that UOT kitchen supports animated pulldown notification. I want to try it. But right now i am in queue on that site. Nearly after half hour my number will come. Then i will try & post the results.

Look at this Trip.... by me it can works... if i have some time i will do it just to test...
I was really excited regarding this feature, but really don't know how much this will increase the look of my device but one thing for sure after spending around ten years with my symbian, android is really amaze me day after day. That how much Linux or android have to offer to us in near future or now.
Love android
ITS WORKING..check OP
nice work man
problem.phone bots,then black screen appears,pull down menu appears and after few secs phone restarts taking battery didn't help.now i need to do recovery and its old,i lost like 10 apps and many updates -.-
edit:system succsesfuly booted after applying some other random theme.
edit2: pushing systemui with root explorer works,it looks good,only this is that i cant see letters on transparent notifications.

So sad that u lost ur few data. Its perfectly working for me. Not a single issue.
If u are using themes randomly then sometimes system become unstable. I am using my phone without any theme.
ah np i didnt lost anything ,got an idea that theme will replace broken files and it worked.i think its about zip coz manualy adding systemui works.ask some1 to build proper zip.
edit:yea btw i used tons of themes like 10 or so flashing one over another and didnt have any problem o.o

Zip file dont have any problem at all. I have used it saveral time for flashing different files. I am sure problem happened with u because of overlapping of different theme files.

MAKE YOUR OWN APP THEMEs & SHARE (NOOB FRIENDLY)

HI FRIENDS,
I took this opportunity to make a small tutorial for my friends who would be interested in learning some basic icon/app modding.
Before you begin plz make sure you have following stuff ready
1. Winrar.
2. Paint.net (easiest editor).
3. Few icons of your choice you want to try.​
Here we go follow the steps slowly and i am sure you will never go wrong (Do remember do not follow this guide for .9 images)​
STEP 1
SELECT ANY APK YOU WANT TO MOD for EXAMPLE I HAVE CHOSEN "MyFiles.apk"
YOU MAKE A SEPARATE FOLDER THEN AS SHOWN DRAG THE APK FROM THE ORIGINAL ROM TO THE FOLDER OF YOUR CHOICE.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
STEP 2
OPEN THE APK WITH WINRAR AND EXTRACT THE APK IN THE SAME FOLDER, INSIDE THE EXTRACTED FILES, YOU WILL SEE A FOLDER NAMED "RES", OPEN THAT AND IT SHOULD LOOK SMTHING LIKE BELOW
SELECT THE FILE YOU WANT TO EDIT IN "DRAWABLE-HDPI" FOLDER
I SELECTED "ICON_MYFILES" LIKE BELOW
​
STEP 3
OPEN PAINT.NET AND OPEN BOTH THE ICONS U WANT TO EDIT AND THE ONE YOU WANNA USE AS ICON
SAVE NEW ICON VIA EDIT AND MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT CHANGE THE CANVAS SIZE AND SAVE THE FILE
​
STEP 4
VARIFY THE IMAGE HAS BEEN SAVED IN SAME NAME
​
STEP 5
OPEN THE APK & EDITED IMAGE FOLDER AND DRAG THE EDITED FILES INSIDE THE APK (IN WINRAR) WITHOUT DESTROYING THE DIRECTORY STRUCTURE
​
STEP 6
I HAVE ADDED TWO BLANK ZIP FILES ONE FOR SYSTEM FILES AND ONE FOR FRAMEWORK FILE
DRAG THE APK IN SYSTEM.ZIP INSIDE SYSTEM/APP FOLDER AND FLASH
IF YOU HAVE MODDED ANY FRAMEWORK FILE THE USE FRAMEWORK.ZIP AND PUT THE MODDED FILE FRAMEWORK.ZIP/FRAMEWORK FOLDER
​
STEP 7
HERE IS THE FINAL RESULT HAVE A LOOK
​
IF U LIKED MY TUTORIAL PLZ HIT THNX....ENJOY AND PLZ DO SHARE YOUR WORK IN THIS THREAD....​
Very nice guide...
I hope everone who want to make little changes in some theme they use to read here, instead of asking for Themers to make it, as it's impossible for a Themer to make true all user's tastes...
Nice work...
