Mostly curious if anyone has already started working on themes for the sense 2.2 leak.
But what i would REALLY like to see in a theme is simply something with a lot of cyan in it. im mostly seeing a lot of deep red/blue themes, which all look great, but i think something with a lighter color would be nice.
on a side note, i just tried to install johnnybueno's red sense theme on the 2.2 leak rom, but did it through rom managers "install rom from sd" option and about pooped myself thinking i had bricked my phone when the screen went black and wasnt responding to the power button or anything. then i pulled battery and booted into recovery.

Yeah that's why I put rom version when I post my themes.
Each time i theme something, I'm basically extracting png files from apks, editing them or replacing them, putting them back into the apks, then re-signing. Because of that, you really don't want to flash the framework-res.apk from another rom... one wrong resource will fubar your framework and you don't want that. Thankfully, because you have a custom recovery you will never brick your phone from a theme I've put together.

Didnt work on skyraider 2. The only thing it did was make launcher pro my default launcher. There was no theme at all
I have a request for anyone that can replace the HTC Launcher bar with the Espresso Bar found on some other threads, it looks so much more sleeker and it matches Sense better than the rounded one
is it possible to put it on my phone without having to flash the ROM and lose everything again? I just finally got everything the way i want it . . .

Is there an advanced power menu mod for the stock ROM available anywhere?
haven't seen any yet. i'm assuming cm7 will offer a bit in that area, soon as its out
Lee's Rom and Coredroid have great power menu mods and they also have more additions to quick settings menu, try them.

I was thinking to stick with the stock ROM for the time being, that's all.
I'm looking for the same thing for stock Rom
You can't have it on stock rom as it requires a deodexed framework. All stock roms are odexed. If you don't know what I'm talking about google it.

Is there a way to get the power controls added to the notification shade if using the stock GB OTA? I've looked and can't seem to find an App or mod specifically for that.
I've found threads about changing the colors and mostly it's people modding the pngs for it via the system?.apk file but I'm not sure how one would add tat, or if we could, say, take the system.apk from a rom that has it already such as Weapon g2x and just drop that on a Stock rooted OTA?
Any idea's or methods I'm just not aware of?
there's an app called "StatusBar+" in the market that has the ability to add power control widget buttons or w/e in the notification bar on non rooted phones....if thats what you're meaning?
StatusBar+ isn't working for the G2X... Any other ideas??

if that app doesnt work, then the only other way is flashing a custom rom! I think u should just root the phone if u havent already, its nearly impossible to brick the thing unless ur completely unfamiliar with it, but even then, its damn hard! There's a ton of awesome roms with the notification widgets
Yeah my phone is rooted. I'm currently using EB 2.3.3 1.07 which I believe is one of the most stable roms... I just wish there was a way to add that feature (power control bar to the notification bar) to this rom without having to flash a different rom or theme...

Could I just take the Systemui.apk file from one of the Weapon2.5 themes and replace my current Systemui.apk file?
I'm thinking it won't work because I'm on EB 2.3.3 1.07, there may be some other files missing from this rom that I might need??
you won't know until you try.
just make a nandroid b4 doing it.

EB already has that....settings --> Cyanogenmod settings -->Interface --> Notification Power Widget
from my themeing experience of weapon and vibrant roms I think its a combination of frameres and systemui. I could be wrong but if it was me id ask a dev who has it in their ROM already it could greatly ease the method to achieve the desired effect.

Well I will take your advice... I see you are the maker of the Precision theme for Weapons... It looks pretty sweet..
Will you be making this theme for Eagle Blood 2.3.3 (v1.07+)? Or better yet does this theme work with EB already?
FYI... It was your theme that I was going to try and use the systemui.apk file...
I have no idea if it will work on eb or not. Im currently working on a few things, but might be able to port it soon.

I believe he's talking about EaglesBlood 2.3.3, not 2.3.5.
The notification power widgets on gingerbread roms are in the SystemUI.apk. The problem is, unless you are really snuggly with linux, java, and the sdk, your chances of coding your own are weak.
However, if you have a rom available to you from the same android and phone versions, you have a good shot at getting it to work, as with weapons systemui on eb 2.3.3.

I have 1/3 lol. Well it's sad that this is the case. I know it is pretty hard to write apps but it seems some things should just be a given considering, Like why no app for this or even a built in option at this point? Oh Well, I'll figure something out for sure.. anyone wanna send me the systemui.apk from Weapon so I don't have to reinstall it again?
Hey hey,
will it ruin, drain battery, cause issues if i get an add on (Stock batter %.zip) from one of the ROM Adon threads, and apply it to another ROM?
I have the Coke ROm installed but i took the battery from the skycream sandwich..
will this cause problems?

it could cause major issues depending on how it was cooked up. some are interchangeable, but some are specific to the rom that it comes from. try it and let everyone know the outcome
yes bc
it involves a framework
so colors and icons and basically everything
how the rom looks
will be borked
if theres a specific mod
i can make it for ya
but i would try theme kitchen
if not
all other mods can be flashed across
all three roms
except
framework-res.apk
and systemui.apk
i rebuilt each apk with the same mods
but different colors

i like switching between the skyICS and SKYCoke...
do you have the stock LTE icons for the SkyICS rom?
This is ONLY for the official stock 2.3.4 LG ROM that introduced the new March 2012 baseband!!
I repeat, DO NOT FLASH ON ANYTHING ELSE.
Ok so since my real first porting of a theme (which was a little of a disaster in my opinion...) I've gotten a lot better/smarter.
This port is probably going to be the final. There's honestly nothing wrong with it so far that I can tell.
I might change the drop down menu background to something else maybe. For some reason, even if you use a transparent image... it still isn't transparent for me.
I just kind of grabbed some random image for the background and used it... it was supposed to repeat itself and just kind of scaled... and doesn't look too bad in my opinion.
How to install:
Download the attachment to SD card
Boot into CWM
(Optional) Create a backup in case of boot loop
Flash the zip
Reboot device
There is no need to wipe cache or dalvik or any of that nonsense. I NEVER do, but you can if you're paranoid enough.
Known Issues:
None.
Notes:
I disabled the overscroll glow. I just personally do not like it and it tends to make the device lag when it appears.
I didn't do any .xml changes so no colors should be ugly on certain other windows/frames.
The font in my screenshots will NOT be applied to your phone; that is the font I use and it is not included in the theme.
SOLUTION IF YOUR PHONE BOOT LOOPS
If your phone bootloops it means you dirty flashed 2.3.4 onto your device which means you were on 2.3.3, then you upgraded to 2.3.4 via LG Update tool, and then tried to flash this theme.
So what you have to do (and SHOULD do anyway) is download the rooted 2.3.4 stock ROM (thanks to kwes) and do a fresh install of it (wipe data/factory reset and format /system) then this theme will work 100%.
MD5 Sums of files:
Regular Touch of ICS = b355978ec1b9d026d0d78e5b1e1509d6
Circular Battery Mod = 26a780245165b7eab30bb47cf356c0a9
CM7 Battery Mod = ad727e7b4180b4a9aaec27d2a5cbd615

Big thanks to kwes and Core Memory... you all should already know why by now.
Enjoy!
Looks awesome, I'll be applying this to my wife's phone later today. You state 2.3.4 but will this cause problems with 2.3.7 base roms?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Pretty good i must say. Is it possible to include ICS like notification toggles in the theme as well?
Thanks
very nice looking theme. will be flashing.

I don't consider myself a themer, and especially not a developer. You have to ask a real developer to edit stuff to get those things.

Which ROM are you running? This is ONLY for the stock official LG 2.3.4 firmware.
It will not work on any ROM other than the official.
I have also updated the OP to verify and hopefully make it more clear.
This is great

I don't know what could have gone wrong. Nothing is wrong with my .zip. No one else is having problems nor getting any bootloops.
It's possible you got a bad download of the file. Try re-downloading it again and flashing.
Wonder who rated this thread 2 stars :/??
OP has been updated with 2 different batteries: the circular battery by request, and the CM7 battery with the number and little bar on the right side of it.
Hey man i've loved it, can you add the CRT on and off animation, please? I want it cus the stock one when you press the button to turn screen on shows the previous screen that I was before and then go to lock screen(very fast), know what i'm saying? That's annoying, thanks for the theme!!

Thank you and yeah I know what you mean.
I've stated before that I'm not a developer, nor am I a themer; I just simply port over stuff.
I would love to have the screen off animation, and quick toggles as seen in weapon and bionix, but I don't even know the beginning stuff. I'd have to do a lot, lot of reading and experimenting... which I may do one day but work keeps me pretty busy.
By the time I learn anything worthwhile I'm sure a developer would have already made a custom ROM out of this and did all that stuff .
Believe me, I want all that neat stuff too.
Yeeeeah, I've stopped using ics roms because of little things like that, I love when the rom works smooth and fast, it would be awesome if any developer did the crt on and off animation work here, I'm missing the toggles too
