Does UOT kitchen work with Theme Chooser apps now? Last time I used it, it was only for the actually framework files (framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk).

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.

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.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
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......
Related
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.
EDIT....
You have me curious now lol. I will try it on aosp 9.9.1 in the morning Maybe even a different one like the "Fly"

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

Hey, great site! The UOT Kitchen, this is the first I have heard of or seen it, but I have just come from the WinMo world, hence the ignorance. But Android is a lot easier to pick up on than Win Mo. Once again, thank you so much!

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.

This is an addition to my other Super Hero themes. You know the drill...I am not responsible for your phone, you are. Do a back up before flashing. Now that the pleasantries are out of the way, let's talk about the theme. This is made for CM7 nightly build 14. I do not know if it will work for other builds. Included is the theme, Batman keyboard (HTC). A Batman splash screen and a Batman wallpaper pack. I did not create a boot animation, but Rujelus22 did, so all credit for that goes to him. Also included is a beautiful widgets clock skin I created.
Batman theme for CM7 nightly build 14
Flash through recovery.
Batman Keyboard
Download, unzip and install like you would any app through a file manager like Astro.
Batman Splash screen
Put the zip on your sd card and flash through the bootloader.
Batman wallpaper pack
Unzip and apply through the gallery.
Batman Beautiful widgets clock skin
Put on your sd card in data/beautiful widgets/skins folder and apply through Beautiful widgets app
Rujelus22's bootanimation
Push to system/media or create a folder on your desktop called media and put the bootanimation inside. Then right click on the theme zip and select open archive. double click system and drag the media folder into the system folder of your theme zip. flash as usual.
Picture of the custom Batman splash screen below in attachments;
rujelus22's custom Batman bootanimation seen below:
I suggest the thiner lookn bars in lock screen or even better transparent bars any ways cant wait.

it's in systemUI in the system apps, but it's a png.9, meaning that you have to set boundaries for how it will stretch. What i think i have to do is run the pic you gave me through drawpatch.9 and fill in the boundaries all the way around so it won't stretch and then compile it through eclipse.

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.

I all depends on the size of the icons. You can use xhdpi icons, but they'll be to big for the status bar. I haven't found away to adjust the icons in the xml's as of yet, still looking. That bugs me as well especially the "3G". All in all unless you have ICS the icons will continue to look this way.

Yeah, thats the problem. Let me know if u've found a way to do so. Or just share the full status bar layout for me to giv it a try on my r800i.
Edit; Just wondering, would it make any diff if we mod the status bar background/land a bit longer or wider??
Awesome theme. Finally our dear X is getting some love. Nice job.

No, i dont think so. You have to consider that each icon has a designated space mandated in the XML's or smali about 38x38 or so. You want to find that line and change it to read something like 38x20 or what ever you want. It would read something like <FrameLayout android:layout_width="20.0dip" android:layout_height="25.0dip". I've tried changing "status_bar_icon.xml" to no avail.

Because 2.3.4 is broken. You can't connect to Google's server.

Hmm, I can't seem to get this to work right. I'm using the R800x locked bootloader, 2.3.3. I have the file on my sdcard and renamed it update.zip. Through the CWM recovery, I flash the zip file. It runs and finishes rather quickly. When it reboots, I get stuck in a bootloop. Am I missing something or doing something wrong that might be causing this? Any help is appreciated. Thanks

You don't need to rename it , just choose "install zip from sdcard" option. Sorry, I dont know why your bootlooping
EDIT: i just downloaded the theme from the link and it installed just fine.
Are you downloading from your phone?
If so please download from a pc, and try again

Downloaded the file from my PC and transferred it to my sd card. Installed from the zip file in CWM recovery. Appeared to install. Restarted my phone. Bootloop again. Beyond me why it's not working. Could there be anything that would interfere with the theme? Apps or anything of the like?

None that I'm aware of , all the apk's in the theme are stock, just modified. I pull them from the 2.3.3 system dump. I have to admit that this is a bit baffling to me.

This ICS theme worked fine.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1392499&highlight=ics+theme
Yours looked like it may have corrected the minor visual problems this one had. I'll give a shot at re-installing this one and putting yours on top to see if that works. I'll let you know.
EDIT: Ok, the old ICS theme still works.
Out of curiosity, I checked out what the difference between the two themes were. What are the apks in the app folder within your zip?
EDIT2: Worked! You were right. I had to install that old ICS theme down first before yours worked. Wonder why that would work...oh well.

One thing I've noticed is that using my music players (built-in music and playerpro), the text of the song title in the notification bar is black, so it's unreadable.
But so far, awesome job, man.

Ok, that was easy.
This worked for me. First im on JB_by_luxandroid_v2 (one s s3). I copied the systemUI.apk to my pc. Added .zip to the file and unzipped it. Searched for status_bar_background.9.png and used gimp to make these all black. Rezipped all the files to systemui.apk and copied back /system/apps using twrp file manager. Restart and all black status bar.

Flashable zip thanks to luxandroid (will also add black boot animation)
http://dl.xda-developers.com/attach.../1/7/0/0/7/5/4/Flashable_black_status_bar.zip
This worked for me. All the tutorials out there say you need to decompile, modify and compile the systemui.apk. I did not have to nor do I know why it worked the easy way. So this might not work for you and might frak up your install (do a backup before trying).
If anyone wants to make a flashable zip or make this compatible with other roms, be my guest. I dont have the knowlege to develop this any further

Hi, I'm using nova launcher with trickdroid 5 s3. HTC status bar annoys me. Would like to get it all black. Would appreciate any help with getting it. The option was before in the tweak packade but that isn't available anymore. Is there a zip to flash?
Thanks in advance.

I did not encounter any zip to flash, but you could try decompiling systemUI by yourself, which I was too lazy for, so I flashed Pacman ROM.
However, you can download ICS Status Bar or Jelly Bean Status Bar by Team Syndicate, they overlay the Sense one with a AOSP one.
Tried the overlay from play store already. Would work fine on ics. Problem with jelly bean is whn you pull down the notifications status bar goes away, but the overlay does not. So that cuts away half of the clock and settings button.
Dont want to have to go back to ics

Didn't know that as I never had Jelly Bean and Sense at the same time Just go ahead and get yourself a decent ROM, and you're fine!

Would love this; I hate the ugly gradient look. The guys over on ViperOneS 2 said they would include a mod in their ROM for a black status bar but never followed up............ *sigh*

Just plain flat black.... i love it... the closest ive gotten is setting status bar transparency on home all the way in Viper ROM, either one 1.2.1 or 2.0.0, and having a black bg... But only good on home...
EDIT: I would love to remove the beveled look of the status bar....

I managed to decompile the SystemUI.apk couldnot find the obvious status bar file to modify to black, I assume there are several. Someone know witch png files need to be modified to get an all black status bar?
I have done this a long time ago on HTC touch but it seemd easier back then
been googling for hours, but cannot find clear tutorials on how to edit status bar pngs
ok think I found it. should be status_bar_background.9.png
lets see if I can get this to work with my limited knowlege
I found another way. Probably you saw that you can apply some themes in the "customize" app from HTC. Well, the devs of Virtuous ROM made some more themes for that theme chooser, including a holo-like one with a black status bar!
Ok, that was easy.
