Old OP:
***DO NOT INSTALL THESE ZIPS ON ANY VERSION OF ICS EXCEPT THE FIRST AT&T US LEAK!!! --- ICS LEAK#1 ONLY (with a system build date of Fri Jul 6 17:49:44 PDT 2012)***
Here we have the 1% battery increments, and quickpanel toggles for MB865 Moto AT&T 4.0.4 ICS (FOR ODEXED & DEODEXED SYSTEMS).
These were built off of the AT&T ICS leak, so these will probably not work on any other builds. Please use the BootMenu recovery app (found on Play Store), and make a backup first.
NOTE (for odexed only): If you want to remove the AT&T carrier labels from everywhere, install the carrier name removal zip first, then this mod (this mod only removes the carrier name from the status bar & pulldown shade) - if you don't want to remove the carrier name at all, you've got some decompiling to do...
Download & Install:
-Download the appropriate zip below to your sdcard
-Boot into recovery with BootMenu
-Wipe dalvik & cache partition
-Install zip & Reboot
ODEXED SYSTEMS ONLY
Full odexed mod: 1perBatt_DropTogs_ICS_ODEXED(ATT).zip
Full odexed with alternate battery (no numbers):
1perBatt_no_numbers_ODEXED.zip
For odexed 1% Battery (with numbers) mod only: 1perBatt_ICS_ODEXED.zip
To restore from these mods to stock odexed ICS, install this: RESTORE_to_STOCK_SysUI_servjar.zip
DEODEXED SYSTEMS ONLY
Full deodexed mod: 1perBatt_DropTogs_ICS_DEODEXED(ATT).zip
For deodexed 1% Battery mod only: 1perBatt_ICS_DEODEXED.zip
For deodexed Drop Toggles only (no services.jar - but still has batt icons): DropTogs_ICS_DEODEXED.zip
Credits & Thanks:
I ported these both over to ICS from GB for the A2... then moved them over to the RAZR (it involves a lot of edits, additions, deodexing and re-odexing)
-Major credit goes to nitroglycerine33 for the scrollable toggles
-Thanks also to cogeary for bringing nitro's work to the A2
-Thank you to rdavisct for testing the deodexed 1% and drop toggles (which can be found in the excellent SCV7 ROM)!
-Big thank you to Fall of Enosis for testing and helping me get the toggles odexed!! Hey, a few trials & errors.. but we got 'em Thanks a lot, mate!
-Thanks also to fran7382 for testing out the alternate batt icon and for the screenshot for that.
-Thanks to he_stheone64 for the %'ed battery icons (except the unknown (?) batt image, that was me)
-Thanks to jjdoctor for the alternate battery icons with no numbers.

POSTING REQUIREMENTS:
-For AT&T ICS only (SystemUI.apk and/or services.jar are not proven working between international A2 builds)
-Please try to remember where you grabbed the icons and link to the site, and give credit where credit is due.

Guide to move these mods to your system
PORTING THE 1% BATTERY INCREMENTS & DROPDOWN (QUICK PANEL) TOGGLES TO YOUR SYSTEM VERSION
---ATTACHED BELOW IS A ZIP OF THE STOCK DEODEXED VERSIONS OF THE SystemUI.apk AND services.jar FOR YOU TO DIFF/COMPARE WITH THE MODDED ONES - DO NOT ATTEMPT TO FLASH THE ATTACHED ZIP, IT IS FOR REFERENCE ONLY (the framework-res.apk is included so you may set your framework for apktool)---
This guide is based on moving these mods for ICS to other similar ICS-running devices. The process varies a bit going from GB to ICS. Or ICS to JB..
You will need:
Your deodexed SystemUI.apk
Your deodexed services.jar
Copies of deodexed SystemUI.apk & services.jar with the mods
Apktool /Smali/Baksmali tools
Notepad++ or similar text editor
7-zip or similar archive manager
WinMerge or Meld or similar diff/compare tool (a very useful tool that allows you to compare two folders or files side-by-side, and points out the differences for you)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
My “get started” thread may hold some tips for accomplishing the tasks below – check it out HERE
IMPORTANT: This guide is to help you get these mods to your system, for your personal use. If you take the toggles from above and decide to use them in a ROM, be certain to credit nitroglycerine33 for his work.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Don't forget to install your framework for apktool by putting your framework-res.apk next to apktool, cd to that folder (or hold-shift right-click), and do a:
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
SystemUI.apk:
-decompile your deodexed SystemUI.apk
-rename the one with the mods to something else like SystemUI2.apk, and decompile also
For the dropdown toggles:
-add quickpanel smali
Copy the “quickpanel” folder from the modded com\android\systemui\statusbar folder to the same location in your stock
-add quickpanel_quick_settings.xml to layout folder
Open the modded SystemUI.apk\res\layout folder and copy the quickpanel_quick_settings.xml to your stock layout folder
NOTE: Some older toggle mods may not have this xml, all of the code was included in the status_bar_expanded.xml (Big thanks to nitroglycerine33 for the new xml code that is so much easier to work with)
-edit status_bar_expanded.xml or status_bar_tracking.xml for new qp xml (see below for options - some don't have the _tracking.xml - it's all in expanded, I think)
Open the modded SystemUI.apk\res\layout\status_bar_expanded.xml and add this line:
Code:
<include layout="@layout/quickpanel_quick_settings" />
(this will put the toggles between the date and notifications)
OR
(this will put the toggles above the date, directly under the status bar)
OR
delete the "include layout" line entirely from status_bar_expanded and open status_bar_tracking.xml
(this will put the toggles at the very bottom, attached to the close bar)
-add 33 quickpanel images
Add or copy the 33 .png images associated with the quickpanel toggles from the modded SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-hdpi to your stock /drawable-hdpi folder
-add qp lines to ids.xml
Open the modded SystemUI.apk\res\values\ids.xml and copy all of the quickpanel ids to your stock ids.xml (there should be 41 lines at the bottom of the xml – selected in the screenshot below)
-add qp lines to strings.xml
Open the modded SystemUI.apk\res\values\strings.xml and copy all of the quickpanel strings to your stock strings.xml (there should be 15 lines at the bottom of the xml – selected in the screenshot below)
-add qp to public.xml
(NOTE: The resource ID’s in the public.xml need to be unique – meaning that no two alpha-numeric IDs can be the same. If you are lucky, you can just use the trick below and copy the resource IDs entirely from the modded xml. So, before you copy and paste, check a few of the modded resource ID’s against your stock. If you need to assign new ID’s, just stop here, compile your SystemUI.apk, then decompile it again and look for the new IDs created in the public.xml – you will then need to copy those resource IDs over to the quickpanel smali files - with a lot of cross-referenceing.)
Open the modded SystemUI.apk\res\values\public.xml and copy the quickpanel lines from the public type = “drawable” (33 lines), “string” (15 lines), and “id” (41 lines) to your stock public.xml (do not worry about the drawables for the battery images)
For the 1% Battery:
-add stat_sys battery xmls
Open the modded SystemUI.apk\res\drawable folder and copy stat_sys_battery.xml and stat_sys_battery_charge.xml to your stock drawable folder and overwrite the existing
-204 battery images
Add or copy the 204 .png images associated with the 1% battery increments from the modded SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-hdpi to your stock drawable-hdpi folder
-compile the SystemUI.apk (make sure that you saved your original signatures (META-INF folder), and do not compress the resources.arsc - meaning, take it out of the apk and re-add it to the apk in "store" mode with 7-zip)
-it is suggested to decompile the newly modded apk, and check that all of your new edits are still there
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
services.jar
For 1% battery mod only (toggles are done):
-baksmali the classes.dex from your services.jar, and rename the folder to my_classout, or something
-baksmali the classes.dex from the modded services.jar, and rename the folder to mod_classout, or whatever
-edit BatteryService.smali
Open the modded com\android\server\BatteryService.smali and your stock BatteryService.smali with WinMerge or Meld and compare the two files.
(What..? You didn't think I'd do it all for you, did you?)
-reassemble (smali) into a new classes.dex and copy to and overwrite the existing one in services.jar
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If this is for an ODEXED system, you must then re-odex the SystemUI.apk and services.jar. See HERE for how to do that
These were originally ported using a similar process from GB to ICS for the Atrix 2 (except I ended up re-doing all of the resource ID's in the quickpanel smali). Since then, I have used the above method to move both mods over to the RAZR. --- UPDATE 9/13/12: I also used this method to move the 1% battery increments over to CM10/JB for the A2... watch the v3, v4, etc, notation in the BatteryService.smali... pay attention to detail.
Please post questions or PM with complaints.
Big thanks to nitroglycerine33, cogeary, and whoever else first did the smali/xml coding, and all the devs/modders who came before..

can you make a zip that just has the drop down toggles? or instruct me on how to do it? thanks so much!

Did you install the one with both first?
Sent from my phone's mind

No I flashed the one for just the drop down toggles. I almost didn't notice but for some reason the 1% battery mod makes it seem like the battery drains faster lol. I just prefer the stock one.

Ok. Yup, sorry about that. I put the toggles edits on top of the 1% edits, so.. it would take me a little time to separate those. I will probably do that though at some point..
But, in reality, the 1% mod doesn't physically make the batt drain faster.. but, yea, you can watch it go down every 1%, and it feels faster..

Lol I know it just seems that way. But anyways thanks and take your time!

Updated OP with the deodexed versions... which, unless someone is rocking their own custom deodexed ICS, these are only good for those on scv7 (which rdavisct will be updating relatively shortly with this and more..)

The leak is odexed, am I right? That's what I'm on right now. I was on scv7 but restored to a backup I made beforehand.
And aahh now I'm excited!

Yes, stock is odexed. You can always check in your /system/app or /framework folders, and if you see a bunch of .odex files... then your system is odexed.
And, I just PM'd you with something..

And I just noticed, in the zip that supposedly only had the drop down toggles, it had the numbered icons but in 10% increments...

Yup. That's because it was only half of the actually battery mod... it didn't have the services.jar with the rest of the 1% increment stuff (the actual meat & bones of it). So, it was stock 10% increments, but showed you the percentage.. and had way more battery icons sitting in the res folder than needed.

worked
Thanks a lot man ..... u saved my notification bar space :highfive:
waiting for more :fingers-crossed:

Question...since this includes a service.jar file, if I flash this over SCv7 will I loose half of the SuperCharger since it is in the service.jar file or is this service.jar file modded for SuperCharger scripts?

Great question! I honestly don't recall if I used rdavisct's services.jar for the deodexed version.. but, one could, in theory, copy the services.jar from scv7 and reinstall it after flashing this mod..
Or, you could just install the Drop Toggles only mod that I just put back up in the OP (it doesn't have the services.jar included)...

Thanks a million!!! I will try the toggles only mod and report back
Works fantastic!!!

Your welcome altered! Always willing to help you out!
Sadly, I don't have the mods anymore, cause I was one of the Guinea pigs for jims script to get back to 2.3.5 from 4.0.4.
So I am rocking bone stock 2.3.6 right now.
Will be doing so until my new phone comes from at&t. Just because I'd like to send it back stock.

[Themes] 2.x Metamorphs

I started porting some of the themes done in 2.x to metamorph by popular demand. This has many advantages over just using apks as these should be pretty standard across roms & they are easier to work off of. Id consider all of this experimental as I havent had time to test every rom/scenario so if something doesnt work please leave details on what rom & theme + whats broken. Nandroid first.
Please leave feedback if stuff works & Feel free to work off of these, post your own metamorphs with screenshots and ill update this.
To apply get metamorph from the market. Dump zip file in /sdcard/AndroidThemes/ Do not rename zip file. Run metamorph & apply all.
If you were running a previous non metamorph theme or you do not get all the intended updates try pushing a 'stock' com.htc.resources.apk & framework-res.apk to /system/framework/ (or whatever APK its tripping up on) from the original rom & trying again.

Hey TrevE I flashed the the Darkstar mod metamorph you posted in the other thread which is what I assume the same as the one you posted here. Just some more feedback, I noticed that the one thats on my phone is the normal Darkstar theme and not the mod version with the grey battery icons and what not. Applied it a second time to make sure. Also the stock espresso spits out an error about halfway through stating that it cannot be processed due to theme control file being invalid.

What APK was metamorph on when it died off? Did you try to apply the metamorph from inside launcher instead of having sense running? I had some issues inside sense. I applied the espresso one again and it seemed OK.

That was on just extracting the espresso zip. it died at 57% everytime and spat out that error and shutdown metamorph. I'll try running both from launcher instead.
Edit: Actually I noticed when I was about to clear defualt it says there is no default set. I'm running DCv2.05 btw.

I tried downloading it a 2nd time but I will again. I have about 90MB free on my SD
I also just downloaded homeswitcher to check but on DCv2.05 there is only Sense no launcher2 or anything else. Seems kinda strange cause I always remembered being able to atleast use the default Home on other roms before.

I dont think DC had it in it. You can just push this to /system/app/ its the launcher i hexed with 5screen home. If its failing extracting can you open the zip in winzip?

Thanks, interestingly even though my sd card said it had about 90MB free I extracted it on my pc and then transfered it to my phone which initially gave me disk full so I cleared some space and transfered it. Whats wierd is it only shows as being 17.6 MB
Font replacements for 2.x ROMs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6118436&postcount=6
your darkstar theme and blackice didnt work for fresh 2.0d :/
Got a question. Which file do I have to edit to change the font color of the text in the task bar? I'm working on a theme, but the white text doesn't work on a light background.
I was intially going to just post the results after a couple days of playing around with your metamorph themes and what worked and didn't. The only one theme that I got the best results out of was your Darkstar Mod them. Most of the team applied with a few exceptions. And I could never get the stock espresso to work it would always loop on com.htc.resources. I had minimal luck with MarksTheme. After a little bit of digging I noticed after comparing what was working with what wasn't as well as the original rom apks the folder structure was incorrect for some themes or they weren't in the right folder which explained why things wouldn't change. What I noticed thus far:
Darkstar Mod - HtcClockWidget: pngs are in root instead of /res/drawable-normal-mdpi
Darkstar Mod - WorldClock: pngs are in /drawable-mdpi instead of /res/drawable-mdpi
Marks Theme - com.htc.resources: pngs are in /res/drawable-mdpi/drawable-mdpi instead of /res/drawable-mdpi
Thats what I got thus far from examining the themes and just wanted to give you a heads up. I'm gonna fix them myself as realized how relatively simple it is to port to Metamorph. Hopefully you can look through yourself and fix anything else you find. Thanks though for giving me a reason to get into this a little bit more. Personally I'm still reluctant to actually try editing png's myself.
Edit: After a little more playing I made a stock Metamorph of Damage's Rom so I can revert back to. I found that just like you're stock espresso it would stay forever on com.htc.resources.apk. Just like you I extracted the stock apk's and put them in the corresponding folders and created a thm for it. I noticed that it wasn't frozen at com.htc.resources it just seemed to keep going forever and ever (+5min). My logical thought was it's trying to replace sooo many files in there that it's taking very long. After checking most Metamorph themes I realized they don't even change half of the files inside of com.htc.resources.apk so I removed all of them except drawable, drawable-mdpi, and drawable-port-mdpi tried again and voila it finished installing. (Note there is only 1 Metamorph theme that I found that changes drawable and drawable-port-mdpi everything else thus far is only drawable-mdpi)
Edit2: After putting the correct file structure and nandroiding back to a pre-metamorphed backup I was able to apply your theme and everything changed that should have changed without a problem. I'm assuming as well that the current themes will still work on the new DamageControl as the frameworks should still be the same from the previous version.

wondering if we can get some color changes to the contacts lists etc.....maybe some grey and black....or even godzons ported over to the new damage?
Clear Colored Powerbar:
Icons borrowed from Aloysius mod. Changed 'on' indicator to the stock green.
How do you just install the notification bar
Anyway to use MetaMorph to only install the notification bar on one of these themes? I like the different notification bars but want to leave the remainder of my Rosie Stock theme intact...
Any guidance would be appreciated.

You need to track down what files were modified in what apk's in order to create a metamorph theme. It's a pain to do it the first time around, but from then out on, it's much easier than incorporating the changed files into a new apk with every new rom.

I'll continue to use this thread to post any more stuff I do in the future.
Don't expect too much from this thread, I'm pretty much a weekend warrior when it comes to this stuff but I do like to tweak things to my preference and if anyone else digs it then cool.
I'm partial to DC roms so anything I post here was built on DC, if it's not I will clarify.
Most DC mods will work on other roms also built on the Sprint release but I make no guarantees and will probably not be doing any testing on other builds
NANDROID FIRST!!!

Battery Gauge Icons
I haven't figued out how to make the .xml's for metamorph so these are flashable signed.zips of each battery set.
I've also included a NON flashable .zip of all the flashable .zips and a .zip of the images for
those who would like to drop the .png's in themselves to preserve any other themes/mods (to the framework-res.apk).
See the bottom of this post for "How To Add .pngs to framework-res.apk".
None of these have a BG, I put gray behind them so you can see the depth a little better

My first Metamorph!! METAMORPH _ GlowBattery.zip
Metamorph - View attachment GlowBattRN.zip
DOWNLOAD - batt_round_blue_signed.zip
DOWNLOAD - batt_round_white_signed.zip
These two .zips are NOT flashable.
They are a .zip of all of the flashable .zips above (if you want to try more than one )
and a .zip of the .pngs themselves along with the .psd (if anyone wants to play )
They also both include this Alarm ON Icon
Battery_Gauge_Set.zip (all the flashable zips above)
nebs_2.2_batt_Icons.zip (all the icon .pngs)
I just realized the Alarm ON Icon I included has the stock Sense taskbar bg..
Here is one w/o the bg if anyone wants it:

HOW TO CHANGE FRAMEWORK ICONS AND PRESERVE OTHER MODS:​These instructions will work on Sprint/HTC as well as AOSP builds​
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP !!!!
Plug phone into PC (USB)
Open a cmd prompt (may need to open as administrator in win7/vista, not sure)
Navigate to "c:\android-sdk\tools" (unless it's in your path)
Type the following:
Code:
adb remount
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk c:\
Open a windows explorer window and locate the framework-res.apk you just pulled to c:\
Use 7zip or WinRAR to open the archive of the framework-res.apk (right click on the .apk)
In the archive of the .apk open res/drawable-hdpi, you should see a TON of .pngs
Open the folder that contains the images you want to use
Drag and drop the images into res/drawable-hdpi (the new images must be the same name as the original)
Close 7zip/WinRAR
Go back to your cmd prompt and type:
Code:
adb push c:\framework-res.apk /system/framework
[COLOR="green"][B]#Once the push is finished QUICKLY TYPE:[/B]
[/COLOR]
adb reboot
*Replacing framework-res can have some funky effects on the phone. When you are booted (only once, the first time after pushing the apk) it's likely your wallpaper will be reset to stock and you may have to add your google account back and re-sync, neither have been terribly inconvenient for me
how do you install? sorry for a noobish question.

Yeah I should have mentioned the notibar bg is part of the framework so there's lots of stuff that will return to stock if you flash this.
I expected it to replace it so it was no surprise when it did

What battery icons are you using?
I really liked the glassy looking 6bar battery icon set on the hero.
Beautiful man! Love it, had my nexus like that too. Looks real slick with the clear lock screen too. My phone is comming together perfectly, and you helped with that. So THANK YOU
Its one from the nexus one. Its a circular six part one. See attached.

yup i am back to normal from the backup .. hopefully there will be an update on this mod
Working on stuff for 2.2 now..
I will be posting a transparent tray for DC FroYo soon
Right now I'm working on some taskbar icons. I thought it might be cool to have a fuel gauge for the battery..
I have the whole battery set done once I get a couple more things done I'll zip and sign an update if anyone's interested
I thought about doing a speedometer for cdma but FroYo only uses 4 icons..

[Theme] Cyanogen7 ColorMOD

Cyanogen 7.1.0 Final ColorMOD + Nightlies
I have spent several hours/days/weeks compiling a simple yet powerfully awesome ColorMOD for Cyanogen7. I would not call this a "Theme" by any stretch of the imagination as all I wanted was some gosh-darned COLOR in my ROM aside from the puke-green of Gingerbread.
I pulled icons from about 7 different theme-packs, I edited a crapton of them in photoshop, and some of them I made myself. I did *NOT* add color icons to the google apps for several reasons, the largest of which is that modifying them can cause them to not update.
If you see any glitches, or an icon I missed please holler at me here and I will fix it immediately. I try to stay on top of the nightly builds as best I can but whatever.
I started this MOD as a request from a friend of mine, and figured it was really nice and maybe some of you out there would like to run it.
I am seriously struggling with the new Theme engine, so this is a .zip flashable that overwrites your default system theme. Other theme packs will of course still work perfectly.

I've been making changes slowly and subtly but I figured it was high and time to make a change-log seeing as I plan to keep this updated due to its popularity.
Changelog:
Added color birthday icon & changed the profile icon when holding down power button (the other one looked out of place)
Added colored icon for the screenshot option when holding down the power button
Changed the vertical color bar from yucky orange to awesome BLUE~!
Updated the WiFi Icon, embossed & changed the single dot to RED when theres no signal
Updated the 4G Icon in the notification bar with ones made by member "Vegasden"
Updated the system Font from ubuntu10.10 to ubuntu, makes scrolling text less laggy and looks the same
Updated window animations to the "Fly-IN" method. Very smooth, very cool.
To Do:
Make the notifications in the drop-down bar transparent (looks like butthole, gonna try and just inverse the colors)
Convert what I can to a theme manager .apk file (WIP, maybe never, Im having issues/lack of help)

===========================================================
TUTORIAL
===========================================================
If you want to modify this theme, use its pictures, make your own themes, distribute whatever, here is my "method" for creating this color modification. Download the files below and lets play "follow-along"
Android "Auto-Sign" Tool
http://www.soulpirates.info/downloads/android_autosign.zip
ColorMOD Template Package
http://www.soulpirates.info/downloads/Cyanogen7_ColorMOD_Template.rar
Open this webpage in a browser
http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/
Download the version of Cyanogen you wish to modify
http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=supersonic
Download the last previous version of the ColorMOD
Links above
Know how to use Adobe Photoshop
Have a good zip program for opening .apk files (I use 7zip)
_
Step 1:
Download & Extract the latest Cyanogen ROM to a folder on your computer
Download & Extract the latest ColorMOD to a folder on your computer
Download & Extract the Cyanogen7_ColorMOD_Template to a folder on your computer
Step 2:
Rename the ColorMOD folder to reflect the new version number i.e. rename "Cyanogen7-rc4_ColorMOD(stock)" ~> "Cyanogen7-n36_ColorMOD(stock)"
Open folder from the latest ROM & the latest ColorMOD side-by-side
Navigate down to the \system\app folder on both
Notice that the ROM has several dozen apk files, and the ColorMOD has only 5
In the ROM folder, grab the 5 .apk files that you see in the ColorMOD folder
Contacts.apk
Mms.apk
Phone.apk
Settings.apk
SystemUI.apk
Move them into the ColorMOD folder overwriting the 5 that are in there, this way you have the latest versions of them directly from the ROM
Step 3:
Navigate both folders to \system\framework
Open the website
http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/
Navigate to the "File Upload" tab
Under "framework-res.apk"
Choose "Select File"
Upload the "framework-res.apk" from the ROM folder
You will now see a progress bar that it is uploading
When it says "Complete"
Click on the tab that says "Windows Animation"
For ColorMOD I use "Flying"
Check the box that says "Use this mod" and click the radio button that says "Flying"
Click on the tab that says "Battery"
Check "Use this mod"
Click on the option that says "SCB with %"
This allows you to use 1% battery increments
Pick ANY option, it doesnt matter, we will be overwriting the battery image files anyways
Click on "Summary" Tab
You will now see three items in green
-Battery
-Windows Animation
-File upload
Click on "Submit work to kitchen" and wait approx 10 minutes.
It will now prepare the framework-res.apk for you that you will be using for the finishing touches on the ColorMOD. You use this kitchen because it prepares all of the REALLY hard stuff for you, such as editing XML files to allow 1% battery and flying in window animations. You can actually just save the xml files it modifies and use them going forward so your not impacting the website, but for this tutorial were going through all the steps from scratch.
Step 4:
Download the file you just "cooked" and save it into your working folder
Open the zip file, it will start with UOT, and extract the framework-res.apk file from it
Now take the "framework-res.apk" file, and OVERWRITE the one in your ColorMOD folder in \system\framework
Step 5:
You are now ready to overwrite the stock image files (nasty green piles of puke) with your beautiful and glorious colorized ones.
Most of this has been prepped for you so it is now SUPER easy. Getting the apk files over and the framework prepared are the hard parts. Now its really just a matter of drag/drop.
Open the ColorMOD template folder side-by-side to the working ColorMOD folder
You will notice that in the \system\app folder you have .apk files that match the FOLDER names in the template folder
Now, simply open the .apk file (I use 7zip), and its corresponding folder in the template
Drag and drop, overwriting all the files when it prompts you
Once you have done that for all of the .apk files in \system\app
Open the \system\framework folder and repeat the same process
Step 6:
You have now replaced every puke-green picture and black & white nonsense with glorious color
Now you need to zip it, sign it, and flash it. Ill show you how to customize it a little bit first
-Close all your folders now except the ColorMOD folder, you are done with the ROM and Template now.
Go to the root so all you see is "META-INF" & "system"
Dig all the way down to \Cyanogen7-n36_ColorMOD(stock)\META-INF\com\google\android
Open the "updater-script" file (I use notepad2)
This should look familiar. Its where you can customize the messages that are played out while flashing the zip file
I shouldnt have to tell you, but dont F*CK with the stuff that doesnt say "ui_print" You have probrably flashed this enough times to know what shows up on the screen and what doesnt. The stuff that doesnt show up, is the stuff that is actually telling the system how to flash the zip file. Anyways, change it up a little, remove my name, put your own ascii art in there, do whatever you want - save/close
You may have also noticed some extra folders in there that we didnt discuss here, "fonts" & "media" ~> Well open them up, the fonts is what replaces your system font with ubuntu10 font, and media is where the bootanimation is located, as well as a few ringtones/notifications I put onto your phone when you flash. You can replace the files in here with whatever you want, add your own bootanimation, dump some ringtones, change the system font etc. When your all done having fun...
-Head back to the root folder so all you see is "META-INF" & "system"
select both folders and zip them up like so
Step 7:
IMPORTANT
-Do NOT flash this if you have modified ANYTHING in the TEMPLATE!!! (This includes ringtones/notifications/etc)
IMPORTANT
You can technically now flash this file, it is signed and ready to go, however, if you modified ANYTHING from the template at all you need to re-sign the file. Signing the file generates a "manifest" of every file that is included in the archive, if you add or remove a file, you need to resign the archive or it will completely bork on install.
To sign files easily, you MUST have the android-sdk installed, I would assume that most of you have this but if not download and install it.
Extract the auto-sign file you downloaded from the top and put the files in the \android\tools folder (android being the folder of your sdk installation)
You will see a beautiful and wonderful .bat file called autosign.bat -YAY!
Move your .zip file to a location that has ZERO spaces in the path. If you have a space the bat file will hang and freeze
To make things easy just put it on the root of your c: drive or something and make sure the zip file name has ZERO spaces
Double check that the patch and file name has ZERO spaces, if your not sure, put it on the root of the c drive and name the file like "a.zip"
Open the autosign.bat file
Choose option (4) Sign files manually
now type the path of your colormod, for example c:\a.zip
Hit enter
If it reads
File signed successfully if no Errors above.
Your good
Step 8:
Copy the zip file to your phone and flash it
Your a god-damned champ! Pat yourself on the back.
Looks like a winner to me! Ty for sharing.

This is Specifically for Nightly 22 (I put that at the very top of the post)
You will need to re-flash rc1, or I would HIGHLY reccomend moving to nightly 22 as it fixes several issues like the gps/wifi/hotspot/ and misc kernel fixes.
here is a link to nightly22, once you flash that it should boot up fine (remember to wipe your cache before upgrading.... no need to wipe data though).
Once you boot up fine, THEN reflash the colormod and you will be happy!!!
http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=supersonic
NOTE: if you want to stay on RC1 for whatever reason, just download the RC1 mixer theme from this thread, it should get you out of your bootloop

Oh and one final thing, the battery only ticks off in increments of 5. I wouldnt mind doing 1% ticks but I dont know how to edit the .xml files that control how often it pulls the battery image. If any of you have insight, well.... awesome! Drop me a PM.

Waiting for the update for nightly 26! You can probably flash the .zip for 25 over it I assume but I will wait for the new .zip. really does look great, maybe try getting in touch with the developer of the honeybread theme to get your theme into theme chooser!!
Seems like a dirty version of the mixer theme...
Looks great. I like how it isn't overpowering yet you changed enough things that it sticks out in a clean detailed way.

Updated to nightly 26
Yes, I did borrow from Mixer, some from Urban, some from a cm6 mod in their hack forum called "colorized". I photoshopped up all the stuff that was still orange, to the blues on "Hue change" (dark blue is +175 and light blue is +155). I also had an old color icon pack on my computer Scramble that I took some from. And a few I just took the b/w versions, embossed them in photoshop, then changed them to RGB color and hue shifted them till i got the color I was looking for. Its not a unique work to be sure, but I think that its a nice blending of the many themes found here on XDA. I did add some noticeable "personalized" touches, like the zelda themed call screen and the bootanimation. I even snuck in some rings/notification sounds if you didnt notice. But overall Im happy with it.
Thank you for the feedback, im glad you are all finding it as useful as me.
Once the final revision of Cyanogen 7 releases, I am going to post up the template Im working from and a quick & dirty "how-to" so you guys can all tweak and modify it however you like.
Also, I spoke with the gentlemen that makes the mixer theme, and he pointed me to a site that is helping me get the 1% battery increments implemented so stay tuned for that!

[MOD] Universal themes for all roms and versions

Now you can create a consistent theme for any ROM (even for different phones) by Universal Flasher issues.
Latest version: 3.4 (29/01/2012)
(Attached at the end of this first post)
What is Universal Flasher Tool?
It is a complete template that is used to create the simplest possible way from recovery flasheable issue without having to include or edit files. Apk.
The operation of this template is based on the VillainTheme System, for VillainROM ROM.
Link: http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/sh...inTheme-System
Credits and thanks to all XDA team who has worked in the original script: Doctorcete, Stericson, Matt and Seshy
This new method uses the file system MetaMorph Application (just have to place files or folders on their respective routes), with the advantage that the system identifies and injects them into their applications without the need for external application. The subjects are flashed directly from recovery.
At the end of the post is attached blank template and a sample issue to start testing.
What are the advantages of this method over the MetaMorph or traditional flasheables issues?
Do not include. Apk complete, only the files you want to include in the subject.
A theme created with this template is valid for any ROM, even among different phone roms (the tests have been conducted and Nexus SGS2 one).
Optionally, the template can include complete files if desired, can even be used to install applications not system.
Does not depend on external applications such as MetaMorph because it flashes directly from recovery.
Performance of staff
At the end of the post are attached a number of considerations to take into account, but basically works like this:
Identify the applications that you want to thematize and verifies that exist in the rom. Once the check, the system compares folders that will be introduced as well as files and injects them into the apk as long as the new apk file exists within. This has been thought well to avoid filling an apk with files that do not belong because they are from another rom or because you made a mistake when typing the name, for example.
Once injected the files is one of the apk zipalign to optimize RAM usage.
Optionally, if the topic includes external files or copy them to install applications on your path.
While the issue is being applied, the system will generate a backup of changed files and automatically creates a file. Flasheable from zip recovery, in case something goes wrong or do not like the changes back to its previous state.
Finally, it also generates a small log with the outcome of the whole process is recorded on the SD to verify that all changes are applied correctly.
How to create and edit your own theme
Download the template from the attachment in this post or the link below.
Recommended Tools: 7zip to include files and browse the file system (you can also use winzip or winrar with no problem) and Notepad + + or any other plain text editor to edit the name of the mod.
Once downloaded, open the template with double-click will observe and folders inside a file in the root. Here's are in each folder and how to create the theme.
MOD.config file (new from version 3.0)
It is an editable text file (recommend Notepad + +) where he also set the name of the MOD to set different parameters of the template.
MOD_VERSION = name (name of the mod to be displayed in the system properties after the name of the rom. It is recommended not to put a very long name and try to avoid as far as possible in the blanks.
CLEAN_MORPHING = not (compare the new files before injection into the apk, only introduced if the file already exists. By checking the speed is drastically reduced)
V4_MORPHING = yes (support to manage compatibility with existing folders-v4 system in some applications).
DO_BACKUP = yes (enable or disable the creation of the backup flasheable from recovery to restore the existing theme).
LOG_ENABLED = yes (enable or disable the creation of a log file with the results of the process).
SCREEN_LOG = yes (shows the process of recovery on the screen or not. Notices are always important but turned off the option).
Optionally, you can set a different path for memory cards (no need to touch these lines in most cases, you should not touch):
default_internal_sdcard = / EMMC
default_external_sdcard = / sdcard
Optionally, you can add special commands to mount partitions (no need to modify these lines in most cases, you should not touch):
mount_system = mount / system
mount_data = mount / data
README.txt:
Includes some additional notes on the operation and leave. Please read before using the template to create a theme (in English).
Cartet / tools:
This is the folder where you have placed the scripts and binary files needed to flash the issue and make subsequent restoration. No need to touch anything in this folder to edit the theme. From version 3.0 has been deleted because busybox binary is no longer involved in the process.
Folder / META-INF:
System Folder which includes the signature and the script file to launch from recovery. It is recommended not to touch.
Folder / MORPH:
This is the template folder where files should be included with the theme. In turn, the folder is divided into two subfolders called / data (for applications theming system NO) and / system (for theming system and applications framework).
In the folder / MORPH / system / app files are included for applications and / MORPH / system / framework for the framework files.
ATTENTION: NO application theming system in / MORPH / data / app / myapp.apk digital signature is change, so from that time can not be updated from the market or will you installed in the market (like if it had installed by 'other means' non-statutory ...). Therefore, we do not recommend any downloaded application thematize the market. You are advised that the complaints do not come then ...
For each application you want to thematize is to open a new folder called / nombre.apk (eg / Contacts.apk if you want to change the system application Contacts.apk). You must respect the use of upper / lower case. Within each of these folders you have to respect that there are logical paths within applications, so that the files would have to place them in folders named / res / drawable, res / drawable-hdpi, etc ...
It's the same structure of the subject MetaMorph, so that any item is readily convertible MetaMorph simply dragging folders.
No need to create any control file or anything like that. The system is responsible for reviewing the folders you want to know tematitar applications.
Folder / Xtras / system:
in this folder is where, if desired, can include files or complete applications that you wish to flash in conjunction with the subject. For example, sound files, bootanimation, scripts, complete applications, etc ...
Folder / Xtras / data:
in this folder is where, if desired, can not add applications to be installed system during flashing.
Folder / Xtras / sdcard:
in this folder can be copied to add files to make the SD card, such as packs of icons, sounds, videos, etc ...
Considerations to take into account
Always respect the use of upper / lowercase in the names of files or folders and logical paths located within the apps.
With this system the themes may be universal, although depending on the type of files a user input may cease to be:
If only image files are included the theme is compatible with any rom from any phone.
If you also are included. Xml files, you may only work in one rom, but can still work on future updates of the same.
If resources are included for translations (resources.arsc) the issue would only be valid for a particular rom.
The. Zip file to the topic is not necessary for you to sign flashes, and is valid for CW-Recovery and Recorevy-RA. If you do not have to remember signing off signature checking before flashing.

Special thanks to @ lexullde [email protected] HtcMania to follow the entire process, to adapt its themes, and suggest new things.
Nice one...
Awsome work way to go you are welcome.
Best Regards.

thanks, this mod is a very easy to create themes, I already I have created the elegance note for Kingdroid sgs2 and good is not to be afraid of reactions each with each version or adapt to different roms, the installer is responsible to adapt
Hello
UT doesn't work on last Turkbey v35 framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk (SGS2) for morph modding. UT 3.4 uses 7z for repacking. I found old 1.0 tool, where repacking was done by unzip and zip. So, I don't know how, but UT 1.0 works great, UT 3.4 gave up
I found another thing: "7z" on Windows says "Not implemented" while repacking these apk's... I don't know how Turkbey is zipping his files, but WinRar says that they are corruped
Maybe it's good idea to implement in UT two ways of repacking? If error occurs with 7z, just do old-way unzip/zip?...
Here are "unmorphable" SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk.
Link dead... can you return it over ? please
Thanks and good job

not complicated! :laugh:
just unzip your systemUI,
search for the icons, should be in systemUI.apk/res/drawable(hdpi or xhdpi or ldpi or what kind of device you use)
than, mod it to your liking.
now create a folder in the morph section, like this:
morph/system/app/systemUI.apk(*its a folder, exactly named, as the apk!!*)/res/drawable-
place your icons, corect named of course, into the proper folder, zip the whole stuff, make a nandroid, and flash.
if you are used to zip, editing files, that should be no problem.
Well thanks for trying to help...
But would it be the same thing if I'm using a non-stock ROM (I'm using Rocket ROM 7)?
And what about if one is using all these themes going around? I'm using trinev's mini-dark theme which I may be trying to switch to 'NEW ICEY Blue THEME With Sense 4.0 Recent Panel For Touchwiz ROMS!!' both already have status bar icon mods.
It's just I'm terrified of the dreaded boot loops! Plus, because I basically have a stock ROM with all the bloat doing nandroid backups & restores take forever!

Well, it should be working for all Roms,
Just keep the folder structure and icon names. Or use a cm9/aokp rom, which supports theme apks.

[THEME] [MODS] BATTERY 1% ICONs Gingerbread only

Hey, guys/gals.
I know each of us have our own individual preferences in regards to how we like certain things to look. Battery 1% is no difference. Some like the icons to lie horizontal, some like it vertical and others may like it circular.
I put this together for the do-it-yourself-ers. UOT Kitchen is always a good option, too. This may make it easier if you just wanted a quickie without having to go to the kitchen.
Attached is a bunch of battery icons and a cwm-shell to flash the frameworks-res.apk. None of the work is my own. I just pulled out a bunch of the battery icons from different ROMs.
Credit should be giving to the original authors for making it or bringing it to you.
I wrote up the shell and simply provided the battery icon zips.
To have it on your phone, you need to be rooted.
HOW TO:
1. download 7zip or WinRAR.
2. Open up the ROM you are running by clicking on the ROM on your PC or computer.
3. Find the folder: /system
4. In /system find the folder /framework/
5. In /framework/ - find the /framework-res.apk.
6. This has the battery icons you want.
7. Double click on the framework-res.apk
8. Go in the /res folder
9. Then go in the /drawable-hdpi folder.
10 If you scroll down on the images, you will start to see some images of battery icons.
11. Next, open up the downloaded battery icons zip by right clicking or double clicking on it.
12. Copy all the images in the zip and paste them into the already opened framework-res.apk and in the /drawable-hdpi/ folder.
13. Back out of the WinRAR or 7zip. It may ask you to finalize the changes, depending on the compression program you use.
14. At this point, you can use adb or android commander and push the new framework-res.apk into the ROM you are running or you can flash it in cwm.
It is important that you use the framework-res.apk from the ROM you are running or planning to run. Using a different framework-res.apk from different ROMs may produce unintended consequences.
15. If you are planning to flash it in cwm recovery, put the modded framework-res.apk in the cwm-flashable shell program or in the ROM.
15. Have the cwm-flashable on your phone. Boot into recovery and flash the newly modded framework-res.apk.
16. If you are cautious, make sure you have the old framework-res.apk in another cwm-flashable shell. -Call it Restore. If you tried to flash the new one and bad things happen or you boot loop or hang at the Samsung screen, just do the three finger recovery and flash the restore frameworks.
Btw, if you find some other battery icons you want to share, feel free to post them as well.
Have fun.
Thank you Qkster. I am out of thanks today. Some screen shots will make this post excellent. :thumbup:

Thanks Q for your effort!! I like the broken circle 1%. I read and understood your steps, up to step #14. From this point on, I'm at a total loss. I'm not clear on how to "push" using ADB is there a command to do, or is there another way which is to just copy and past the preferred battery mod into the cwm zip? Thanks again for all your help!

Skip step 14. Go to 15. Copy your new framework into the shell cwm flashable into the /framework folder. Then flash it in cwm.
you can also put it into /system/framework and set permission to 0644 (3 box first column and top box 2nd column)...be prepare for fc. Keep closing until you can reboot
Nice mod, working fine
Didn´t knew some parts of framework can be edited without decompiling

Most png's in apk res folder can be modded to your liking.
It is only when you try to decompile after mod ding that you may encounter error without resources.
If you like an icon from one camera or email or what not, you can simply over write it from your original apk using 7zjp. No decompile or signing
Nice collection, thanks!!!
Is there something I need to do to enable the 1% increments? I only see every 5% interval on my battery....
also, ive tried out a few of the ones in this post, none show any of the battery levela except 5% increments.
Btw, i am on uclb3

Complete stock framework-res.apk will not have the 1% increment mod to the xml's. Even though there are images (png) for the 1%, it will only report 5%.
You can simply pull the framework-res.apk from the jscott30 Ethereal or any of the framework-res.apk from any uclb3 base firmware.
I pulled this from jscott30 ethereal 6.19.2012. It has close to stock with 1% mod..I think..you can thank him for it.
You can use this to mod your battery.
thanks, that's really helpful
can anyone get the SGSIII Battery Icons with the percentages on them?
Not sure if I need to flash again or start over: with the vertical ICS icons, animated charging isn't animated. Everything else works fine. Any idea what I broke??
