wondering if anyone has or is able to create a deodexed stock rom?
are these even necessary for theming anymore?
its been a while since ive done anything but want to port my BuuF theme to the pixel
thanks

The buuf theme was my favorite for years. I hope you have success porting it. Sorry for not adding anything to the thread but I really loved that theme.
thanks man...
it will happen one day....
also looking into porting it to substratum.....but ive been slacking for a year or so, so time to catch back up
I don't think this is even a thing in ROMs any more. Substratum just works now in 7.1.1. There is no need to install theme-able gapps or anything.
guess its time to learn something new...
maybe android sdk will finally work for me

requires root no?
deodexed stock would still allow me theme a stock rom, without the need for root.
htc one m9 had a built in theme engine that wasnt half bad that and came with a web based designer....might just install that
I believe they are working on substratum for non-root, thought I read that somewhere, i could be wrong

intersting...thanks...i will look more into this
wish i woulda leanred theming correctly...i just pieced them together(image files and change the names to current images in the res folders) although ive pieced together several complete themes...they where always hackup...aside from my HTC theme since they had a online designer made everything so damn simple...MIUI i did a complete theme as well....but no sdk needed....I think MIUI is still my fav theme engine..simple to theme yet very powerful
never could get android sdk to work properly.....i have little patience lol
ill give sdk a go again...or maybe I can find a themer to help convert my buuf theme properly
thanks

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 . . .

This a miui theme I compiled using rodriguez's rom framework. I had a lot of problems with the smooth green theme from xvenom89 over at the droid incredible forum and decided to port of parts of his theme + parts of rod's theme (such as a sweet lockscreen) + icons that I'd used in previous roms such as a different status bar icons like 3g, wifi etc... It is basically a green theme with a bit of color here and there. It should work on any miui rom, since I've only changed the framework, it should definitely work on a nexus and even a desire miui rom, since their frameworks are identical, it also has rounded buttons from the smooth green theme
Remember nandroid....these are all flashable zip files, which can be flashed from recovery, I've also included the original framework of rodriguez's rom which has the custom lockscreen and is identical to the stock miui rom except for the lockscreen, in case you wanna go back to the stock look and feel.
All I've done is copy and paste icons, the real credit should go to the devs such as rodriguez, xvenom89, djmcnz and ofcourse the miui team.
LINK FOR THE MODDED THEME: waiting on whether can post the theme or not
ORIGINAL STOCK LIKE THEME: http://www.multiupload.com/O3RW1NY9JB
made a new blue theme for all those people who like blue, changed the emoticons to the android stock emoticons, since they look better, I like to thank fllash over at the desire themes and app and riptide over at the evo 4g development and xvenom89 for the icons, also I did some of my own customization to put it all together, most of the stuff are themed. Again if you want to go back to stock just flash the original stock theme. Can't put any screenshots up right now. Nearly everything is themed blue, changed the status bar icons.

I'm using Amon's 1.7.0.1
I though so, with amon ra 1.70, the zip file has to be signed, this zip file isn't signed, I'd recommend installing clockwork mod recovery using rom manager in the market, to just flash this file and then there is an option in rom manager where you can revert back to amon ra.

Looks awesome! I'm on Amon RA too so I'll probably try this later on. Could we revert back to the original theme after flashing to this?
Just flashed this over Rod's ROM... VERY NICE! Really wasn't a big fan of the original (MIUI) colors at all. Rod has done a good job changing most but this really brings it all together! Thanx for the work, looks awesome

Yes, I've included the original theme aswell, that is the 2nd link posted, only thin that is different is the lockscreen, because I thought that that rod's lockscreen looks cooler overall.
@zoman thanks, will probably work on some of the colours, such as the bookmarks tab in browser needs to be reverted. I was a big fan of the minimalistic theme and this comprehends that theme pretty well.
hello Cpt. curry
i have request for you.
could you make a set of smiley icon for messaging in miui rom?
i just miss the smiley from the stock
Looks great. It really helps makes it come together. Hope this is maintained going forward
I've worked on it a bit and changed a bunch of things. I might be also realeasing a rom soon with the camera and the contacts application themed. Since I hate that ugly camera texture. It looks bad.
I just realized that I accidentally took a screenshot. Its stored on MIUI Screenshots on the SDCard. Does anyone know what tje shortcut is?

menu + volume down gives you the screen shot.
new theme posted up, its blue and its snazzy.
Edit: I changed the emoticons in the new blue theme to android stock however it wont work in the miui messaging app because the miui messaging app has its own emoticons which can't be changed because they're part of the apk.
so do these themes change the stock wood folders as well?
nah they dont the stock wood folders are to do with the miui launcher itself. I can change them but then I would have to make a rom itslf. You'd rather just flash the themed roms like rodriguez rom.
Cpt.Curry, I don't recall you asking for permission to make a port using either of my MIUI themes. I started both threads with "Please do not repost (or port & upload) my work without permission; do not claim any of my work as your own; I've put a lot of time into making this what it is today. Before doing anything questionable, ask yourself how you would feel if someone took credit for your work. Thanks for understanding." Did you read that? You did give credit for the work appropriately, but what concerns me is that you didn't honor my one request.
Anyways, If you guys like what you see here, check out my original Smooth Green thread- I've made quite a few changes from what Cpt.Curry is using in this theme and continue to work on it every 1-3 days. I've worked out all (as it seems) bugs and continue to theme the system apps. As always, check out the original thread for updates and to report any bugs you may find. Yes, it works on Nexus, too.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=793358
In addition to that, check out my Smooth Blue theme- again, where Cpt.Curry got most images from. I haven't posted an update in a few days, but the next one is ~70% complete and should be up within a few days. It, too, will contain all the latest fixes and is an improvement on the last. Check out its thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8404782
Overall, these are pretty much older releases of my themes with some extra [not necessarily appealing] color from different works.
Cheers.
Anyone want this for CM7? I have it running on my phone:
Okay this is what I have:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/108799/mattedblues-cm-7.0.2.1-Inc.zip
It contains a full flash version 7.0.2.1 includes gapps ... tested working on mine but flash at your own risk. You can take a look at the zip and at least extract the framework.apk app and create a metamorph file perhaps? Either way, its not like this took too much work, I just do not know how to incorporate the custom apps into a theme .apk for t-mobiles app. Enjoy, leave comments, criticism, just hope it works.
You will need to disable signature check. Sorry

Yes by all means!! I was running the sense version, love it.
An .apk theme chooser yeah
Yes please!
Would love this, been wanting it for a long time.
I downloaded it from the Android Themes/Apps section, it said it was for the EVO but I downloaded it anyway. Every time I would switch off my WiFi, the phone would reboot. I removed the theme via nandroid and then I had no problems.
Good God post it already!

My guess is that the op had the evo version running on his phone, and yea the evo version will run but you will have problems since you are essentially loading evo framework on your phone. You guys are better off asking the dev to port the theme to the tmobile theme changer app. That way it'll work for everyone that has the theme chooser app installed.

You are definitely right. I will use it once it is ported since I had issues using the EVO version.
I have made a theme chooser apk today since im not a patient person. im still testing it, so anyone who wants to try it out for me, please click the link below and tell me if there are any problems or bugs. this is my first theme engine apk, so any feedback is appreciated.

*btw, i know my theme doesnt have a name or a pic. it just says @string/theme_name. the theme is still usable and looks really nice! ill fix the android manifest later if everyone gives me the thumbs up.

Cezar has a ROM, Continuum v5 (here). maybe you could download it and extract what you are looking for. Or, just use the ROM
Because most themes IMO are ugly. I personally like the stock samsung with some small modifications. No one does that. I haven't found one rom from the developers that don't screw with the theme. Not everyone likes what you like. The best I can do is download something from the romkitchen with the stock theme and get smart little remarks when I try to ask for help.
http://www.dystopia-zero.net/xxjvb-stock.zip
There you go, dude. Completely stock except for xcal's kernel, 5 lock screen mod, built in ad blocking, overscroll effect and crt off. Also has launcher2, but it seems the icons in the app drawer are fuzzy, so if that bothers you, you might want to set touchjizz as the default launcher.
It also won't flash bootloaders, so you'll need to find the new 2.3 ones somewhere else. I recommend just flashing the stock jvb from samfirmware.com with xcal's kernel, then flashing this over it with CWM.
Maybe wait it out for Perception II? DG ROMs usually have a pretty stock feel to them.
MM do you know where I can find a tut on adding the extended menu and such. I'm interested in the dev part. Just hard finding anyone willing to help you get started.

The one I linked you to has the extended power menu. Doing it yourself is a bit involved.. you have to decompile the .dex/.odex executable with baksmali.jar and edit the code (.smali files), then recompile it with smali.jar and repackage the apk. I don't know if there are any actual tutorials that go in depth on the topic; at least I haven't seen any. It's really kind of a dive-in-and-do-it thing.
If you want to try adding common features like that to a bare rom though, there are a lot of precompiled versions floating around on xda where you just have to replace the .jar file in the proper directory. Just search for the feature you want and chances are pretty high that someone already made a standalone cwm flashable zip of it. Either that or you can try pulling it out of existing roms and popping it in to your own, provided they're based off of the same build of android.
You should check out MikeyMike's rom building tut. It's one of the stickied threads at the top of the general section. It goes over the basics pretty well.
thanks man. I'm going to have to give it a shot. This zip won't work with CWM 3

i can give suggestions though
try PM'ing any AOSP/cm9/MIUI/AOKP devs ..they might reply you
Also T-Macgnolia he got some great understanding with regards to rom development too
ok waiting for any help with this rom
I mean YOU know you can just get the latest OPENSENSATION BUILD, then change the CM9 theme to that, install LG HOME and be on your way. Devs have already provided us with BRILLIANT CM9 and we dont need them to waste time on things like this. If you want it, you can easily install a couple of apks yourself. this is all it is.
Anyhow no hate intended, just download the theme apk install it, follow direction in lg forum and install it and be on your merry way. This is way to simple for any devs to waste time on. Be glad you have CM9 and will have CM10 while HTC is figuring out how to beat Samsung.

In that case can't wait to try myself

The launcher can be added to system/app. For the lockscreen, there must be a way to merge the updater.script and the binary to the existing ones, i think it should be done with META-INF also. And there would be a possibility to replace system theme with the theme you requested.
Wait for the first release
