Ok guys, some of you seem familiar with using this tool.
I just finished porting a theme to work with Xthemeengine. The original theme comes from CM.
The theme installed properly and xthemeengine applied the theme properly but it appears the theme shows no effect on our device.
I assume this is due to the given names of our files found within some apks such as systemui, framework-res, and so forth.
The theme I ported is well over 4000 files. I do not want to have to go through and rename these files accordingly to our device.
So I am bringing this to the attention of all you viewers right now in hopes that maybe one of you know a better solution.
Seems HTC likes to change EVERYTHING when compared to AOSP (starting to get really annoying).
So, there you have it .
Note: my port will most surely work for other devices though - like Samsung for example. HTC is becoming a pain in my rear end.

Nevermind, xthemeengine is outdated with what I am doing. Figured it out.

Looks like I will be sorting through all files to include xml's. This will definitely make for a completely new look on my phone.
Will work best with 4.2.2 though lol.

Why gold? Think that you should go with some variation of miui look. Simple and classy.

I have the design and photoshop ability, but need someone who knows how to get in and modify the xml/images in the apk. I'm looking to theme gtalk and an aosp mms app if we can get one that works.
Here is what I have in mind so far.

Hello,
I am a graphic designer wanting to try and develop a graphics based ROM. I do not know any C. I do have a friend that is an amateur at coding though. I plan on making the ROM for the sleekest look and the best performance. This will be for TouchWiz and AOSP. I'm sure there wont be much coding involved as most of it would be stock except for the overall look, mods, and kernels. I have no idea where to get the TouchWiz source code however, and i'm not exactly sure for AOSP. I've already developed the logo. It will be attached below. The ROM will be named SynopsisROM.
Also if any of you could tell me where to get some decent C tutorials that would be great. Even though i'm a graphic designer I would love to learn how to actually code this ROM if I ever needed it.
If I ever actually release this I honestly don't know when i will as i'm still in high school and will be doing this in my free time.

Start by learning xml and try porting different systemui that would be a great start.

Would it be more efficient to learn how to theme? You can then apply custom graphics without getting in to the technicalities of the ROM.

You may want to look at this thread for APKTool, which allows you to decompile APKs so you can view the XMLs and smali code. Keep in mind you will need to have JDK and Android SDK installed on your machine.

Themes Metal And Red Metal
were made by me for my roms TN_Elousions2 and TN_Elousions3
both sense1.0 roms.
These should work on any sense 1.0 GB rom providing you did not
make any major changes to the rom, other then theme it.
these two builds feature transparent ui, themed app icons, system settings icons, avp icons,
toggle buttons and much more little details.
also moves the status bar clock to the carrier bar.
there are a few other themes in my dl link aswell as these 2 hope you like. enjoy.

Dropped it into Dan's CM rom and looks right at home.
Had to reboot twice to see how good it looked!

Well i flashed the zip on stock rom, it doesn't work. the stock rom doesn't have the bootanimation.zip method, as far as i know, so i think it still has to be ported to stock rom..
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda premium
let me see . It may capable to make qmg format.

Here mate if you can't use boot.zip hope you can use this boot.qmg
Let's thank to @dankoman for the series of pict I used.
It is good but the image is not sharp, due to fact that the source png are only 280X280 Shame as the animation is nice. I hope a good designer can redraw them all in Full HD but that is a lot of work lol
