This is just a personal question i wanted to ask. Do you guys know if its easier to build Roms or to build themes. And which one takes a longer amount of time regardless of skill.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App
I have never built a ROM, but have themed for over a year and find it to be easy but challenging. And the amount of time it takes for me to build a theme depends on how complex I want it. It can take from a few hours to a few days.
Yeah just started theming myself and was just curious.

Im trying to port a theme and using it as my first theme. Its really just for learning though. At least the first one is. If you mean what image apps i use. I use paint.net, fish icon editor(can't remember the name), and photoshop.

if you really wanna do easy port use apk manager. Its script runs smooth and easy.

Edit: is there a way to change the launcher dock? Or do i have to mess with a .9 for that? I've been searching for a way to do it. I would of just used helauncher which lets you change the dock but its not in the market anymore and wanted to see if i could just put it in the flashable zip instead of having to do through the launcher settings.

Is there any theme or app out there that can change the background color of the drawer or even make it transparent?
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
If you use adw launcher you can have any color, or transparency.
Sent from my rooted X10a using Tapatalk
If you use the stock launcher you can edit the framework to change it or you can find a theme or you can use ninjamorph if you have a copy of the image you want to replace it with.
Hope this helps.
When I used Ninjamorph and replaced some png's in framework-res.apk my device didn't boot anymore. What could be the problem?

Which pngs did you replace?
It could be that the pngs are of different sizes to the original ones?

Afaik the pngs get resized automatically. I was getting at the possibility that u tried editing a 9.png. they have data built in so u can't use ninjamorph. Imho ninjamorph is easy to use. Just read the instructions first.
Btw I have no prior graphic design or programming experience. That's how easy it is.

Gps and bluetooth icon for the status bar.
but these are no 9.pngs.
Every time after I have to confirm finishing my project in Ninjamorph, there comes a little screen: please wait. I think this is because it wants to reboot. But after a few second it gets stuck and I have to remove the battery because my device isn´t able to do anything.
I hope you understand what the problem is..

I've jumped ships to the Droid X over night and I've flashed Gummy Jar 2.5, as much as I dig the gingerbread, IMO plain white AOSP looks better. Does anyone have a regular AOSP theme, preferably with the regular battery or just percentage shown inside it (Like in Cyanogen) Thanks in Advance.

Hold home as you turn the phone on, when the M appears let go of the power but keep holding the home button, it will eventually go into recovery where you can let go of the home button
Looking forward to this. Gingerbread has a little too much green in my notification bar right meow.

Nope these are metamorphs...I didnt see the need in making two or three separate framework-res apks when metamorph is easy especially for only 11 images...I was thinking of a full generic aosp theme...but with Liberty Rom and Rubix around the corner I'm going to hold off. Especially since kejar and jrummy have teamed up on Liberty...I dont want to invest a lot of time in gummy since it probably will not be supported or updated.
So i was thinking it might look really clean to be able to erase the app name under the icons and just have icons.... Maybe we can get a developer to work on this? Anyone else like this idea?
I think GOlauncher gives you that option.

You can do it for the homescreen icons with an app like Desktop Visualizer but doing it that way for ALL homescreen icons is a PITA too.

Sense is not customizable, launchers are. If customizing and changing settings is a pia... well that's what the i*hone is for right ;-)
I recommend adw. You can make it look identical to sense if you like the look, and it has that option.

All he did was ask if it could be done and if others would be interested. He likes the stock look of Sense and probably being able to use Sense widgets, which cannot be done with ADW or LP. Calm down there big boy, take some deep breaths, everything will be ok.

No, you are definitely not sol. Just use "better cut" or "desktop visualizer" and delete the names of the apps on your homescreens. Very simple and can be done in under 5 min.
This theme was originally done for a themed ROM for the Eris by tazzpatriot a long time ago. I decided a while back to put it into Theme Chooser for MDPI devices and now that I've moved to the Incredible I'm working on bringing it to HDPI devices as well. For the most part everything is just about done. There are still a few details that need to be polished to get the Theme Chooser version to where I want it. With that being said, I'm going to put up the link for anyone that wants to check it out. This theme does do ADW, LauncherPro and Go Launcher. Dialer, keyboard and some app icons. There's still a little bit of things that need resizing... Like I said... it's a work in progress.

Blackened For CM7 Theme Chooser
Download the apk and install like an app. Open Theme Chooser and select the theme then reboot.
Use this file with ZipThemer (free in the market), to change your lockscreen sliders to Red, Black and White Iron Crosses. Download the zip file to your SD Card. Open Zip Themer hit +Theme, select the zip file then hit Build It. Zip themer will create 2 flashable zip files, an update zip and an undo zip in case you want to put the sliders back to stock. Reboot into recovery and flash the update zip. That's it
Iron Cross Lock Screen Sliders
Hope everyone enjoys this as much as the Eris people have. Enjoy!

See this its inside the apk. Try swapping these with the same files from your systemui app
Then adb push the app to your system app and manually set permissions for it
Or do it with root explorer and set permissions to rw-r-r.
Also, that file browser looks NICE Xplore. I'll have to check the market for it.

Very Encouraged by the responses, but want User Apks
Dear Fellow XDA users and specially developers, I am very encouraged there is so much liking and demand for this particular wallpaper, i wish however, there was a way these APK's could be installed as User apps - cause that would really free this wonderful wallpaper from any constraints.
Short of this - there will be need for putting this in ROMS and installing via root and such - which may not be convenient for people of all skill levels.
