Rosie is the big one to remove. Short of xmc_wildchild and tbalden finding a way to get us stable AOSP/AOKP this is the best you can do.

That's in framework-res.apk

Status bar is also in systemui.apk

So basically could I just swap out the png's from an aosp rom, I am using alot of the g2x files since I used to have it, and it is 480x800 aosp

I am a super noob when it comes to flashing android but i have flashed cyanogen's rom to my nexus one. i know how to flash back to stock with modaco's image, my question is i like the battery percentage in the battery icon at the top, how would i be on the stock image but install that option?
Are you asking how to get the battery % on Cyanogen or how to on the stock ROM?

If you can de-odex your stock ROM's /system/framework folder, then you might be able to take the necessary .smali files and rebuild the classes.dex of the stock services.jar, and it might work. There are a lot of mights involved with that though.

There is a morph to change the H icons to 3G icons. I don't see why people hate seeing that icon so much. It must be so much better than only getting to see the E. Also, there is a morph to make the power control icons green.
Edit:
Searched and didn't see the morph, thought I had saw one a few days ago.
http://android-theme-minus.googlecode.com/files/green_pc.zip
So there is morph that will changes the blue images back to green.

[Theme] Vanilla Android for Sense [PMF 1.0] [ALPHA] [WIP]

By request, I have put together a stock android theme for PMF 1.0 (cause it's deodexed)
I replaced some files in services.jar to get the clock in the status bar to be black, but you'll notice that notification text is still white. If anyone has good java skills and wants to help with decoding .smali files so we can get black notification text then please pm me.
If you guys like this and want to encourage further development please donate.
This theme will not work with any odexed sense rom. You can try, but you'll get bootloops. Don't say i didn't warn you
Please make a nandroid before flashing this theme

hey bud, you are putting up some real quality work, probably one of the best themers on the incredible so far
Ok. To install this place the .zip onto the root of my sd card and apply through the clockwork recovery mod, correct? Also after applying this, how do I disable/remove it if I do not like it? Thanks

You can either re-flash the rom, or restore a nandroid backup.
Can you please do a NexTheme one too please?

Maybe when I have time. I have a lot on my plate as far as my own ports and new themes.
Please make requests via pm. Threads are for discussion of thread topics.
I just installed the taskbar and it looks great, much better than the stock taskbar. The only thing is, my clock still shows up with white text, not black.

I used update.zip and applied over stock Sense.
I actually just read the first post a little closer, it still works with stock sense, only issue is the lighter colored clock in the top right corner. Thanks for all the hard work, I'm really liking the themes.
I just applied this to the latest version of my ROM and it looks fantastic! Keep up the good work man and thanks for the support!
This was my first ROM and theme I installed.....Love it so far, good work!!!
Thanks very much for this. One issue: from time to time, the 3G icon reverts to the old Black icon. Did I not apply the update properly?
Question. Does this theme skin Sense or is this just the taskbar?

It's just the status bar right now, but sooner or probably a bit later it'll be everything. keep in mind this is a alpha testing release so its very much not finished.

Location still uses the black icon, also 3g seems to switch back and forth between the black and white icons.
Other than that, it's great! I love it.
This may be a dumb question (sorry I am new to the game) but do I need to root my phone first? Or can I apply this "theme" using the same method I installed the OTA leaks and updates on my un-rooted droid eris (place files on SD and restart phone holding down power+volume down)?

You applied it correctly, if you are talking about what I think you are.
What happens on mine is when the 3g becomes inactive (just inactive, not disabled) it reverts to the old icon.
See if thats the case with you as well.

You can download the file from Deviantart and apply it with bettercut. It's like 3 steps to new icons. I don't believe there is an AOSP 2.1 icon pack that flashable right now.
awesome, thanks for the help, i really appreciate it

[MOD] 1% Battery animation and Sprint Lovers Icons for Stock 4.22 GB release

All credit for these Icons goes to the creators of the Sprint Lovers ROMS on XDA as well as the original creator, schmittx. His page can be found here: (link to be added this evening)
You must be running a ROM that has a base of the 4.22.651 release of Gingerbread with Sense. (i.e. stock, Ti-X, etc.)
Just flash in Recovery, Amon RA or Clockwork. Please post any issues or any requests.
*See images for Icons colorized!!* NOTE:4G is there and blue, but, I couldn't get a screenshot off it since I have no signal at work.
Thanks for the ICONS Sprint Lovers and schmittx.
Flash and Enjoy guys!!!
Peace,
Unfortunately this does not work on MikG's 2.1 + 3.0 (v1.03). It complely removed my status bar
-ZDK-
Pinky,
Great job!
ZDK,
Reboot and your statusbar "should" come back. I think it may be Sense 2.1 thats doing that. I had the same issue with mine as well...
Yeah, sorry guys. It was meant for strictly stock release (rooted of course ) of GB which was released.
I didn't test it on anything else, but I assumed as long as the .apks I modified weren't too much different than stock (due to modification) on the ROMS with the 4.22 Base, it would work....
Can you send me the ROM you guys are on or point me to a link? I can take care of it for you guys

Will this work on the stock gb odexed rom?
I would def love to see an adaptation for the MikG v1.03 as well.
Anyway to update the GPS icon when its searchng? It reverts to the old icon when its searching.
I also noticed this removed the transparency that I originally had for the drop down notifications. Anyway of getting the transparency back without messing up the icons?

If you can, send me the framework-res.apk from the ROM you are on (the original one). You can find it in the /system/framework/ directory using Root Explorer. Copy it to you SD card and upload.
NOTE: Since you flashed my zip, you removed the transparency. However, i can get it back. i just need the original from the ROM, you may have to unzip the ROM and navigate to /system/framework and get me the original.
I will gladly do it for you though

Thanks! I appreciate this. Here is the framework. I'm currently running SteelRom v1.02 and that's where the framework came from.

Can you make this work with your mod? I flashed it over yours and it gives a transparent status bar but it changes your icons. It only leaves the battery percentage.

I certainly can. Give me a day or two.
If I helped, hit that beautiful Thanks button a few times....LOL
Thanks!!
Hey Pinky059,
I think I gave you the wrong framework file from SteelRom. The original one I posted was after I installed your mod. Here is the correct framework file.....
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=547KW8A4
These are, by far, my favorite status bar icons of any that I've seen/used... would it be possible to get these for the MikG ROM? I'm sure he will be updating to the new 4.24 OTA soon as everyone is doing, but after that, could I upload the framework files and you swap the icons? That would be VERY much appreciated
Unrelated side note-
I see you have the temperature in your status bar..
Is this an app or is there a hack that can put that there? I'd love to have it there instead of having to unlock every time to see the temp.

how would your theme work on stock roms when most of the apks are odex they must be de-odex to theme meaning how are changes going to take effect on the rosie
My theme will only work with deodexed roms.. I was assuming you guys are no longer on stock of course.

no im still on stock i dont see the need right now to go custom and start losing things that i already have working on stock. I check all the roms here and for me right now is a no go i wish soomeone would just deodex tmobile us so i can theme it a little not everybody want a custom rom at the moment hell im still enjoying your skins
As long as You save the stock apks and odex files, you can use my theme on stock also. Just back up the files, delete .odex file and replace apk (i.e systemui) with mine
