Hi Community
has anyone yet played around with framework-res for 2.1?
i tried a bit.
seems to me that not only the basics but 90%+ of the "theme" (icons, bg, other color giving PNGs) are now located in framework-res.
so basically to change whole theme you need a working framework-res & then search the even fewer (than 1.6) spots left blue ^^
here's my first atempt (yes it's awful, but nontheless good result for my first steps )
though, i do not recomend use this, as i kinda mixed up sth with .9.png, popups kinda look funny sometimes, still haven't found all i broke ^^

please post a factible metod for change FRAMWORK-RES.APK
or post a tutorial
Roberto: jajajaja te registras y to xDDDDD anda que! tu primer mensaje!!! xDDD y yo llevo ya pffff....
ok here we go with how to flash it without startup loop:
basically it is safe to just take an already running installer ^^
i choose Chewitt's theme installer for my purposes.
like his work on x10 & thought it a great installer for themes.
edited a bit, if you like i can give you my package, though i might have to retranslate to english, since i ported it to german for a german forum
give me some minute
edit: here we go
but pay attention! it unsecures your shell, giving a computer or script root in EVERY case ^^
resecuring though can be done by doing step 1 with other chmod value

Thankssss =)
working perfect in xperia x10 mini pro!!!
I dont know if multiply the same thread makes any sense.
When firmware update will be available for my unit i also update my theme to 2.1.
good job!worked fine on x10 mini..
Do we need to resign the framework-apk before using the installer?
anyone played with /system/media/bootanimation.zip ?
I have start to edit the lockscreen. But its not ready yet.
First pictures
Edit: does anyone know how to change the clock on lockscreen?
my best guess would be to edit the widget provided by se ^^
seems to me perfectly the same ^^
any1 tried?
k that was rubbish ^^
btw, does anyone know where to find the "end call" button?
i found a dummy in SemcPhone, but did not change a thing (since it changes with language i think it to be a drawable xml..)

i use Droid Explorer on PC...there's a screenshot and even a screencast...
haven't found an app that works on 2.1 mini/pro yet...
wish someone could break the bootloader already so we won't have to painstakingly edit each png file we could find...
i would if i know how...
great work for everyone here!
you guys are brave!
wow! this is amazing! i rly hope u are done with this soon, its gonna be my first priority to download!! good work.
well as i posted previously i already tried to alter DigitalClockWidget.apk
the widget changed, but the lockscreen..
so DigitalClockWidget may not be (the only?) source
and well yes i altered images in ALL folders where i found clockrelated pngs
(there are three if i remember correctly..)
You can do a logcat while activating the lock screen on the phone.. Maybe you have some clues there...
that lock screen looks awesome! but wouldnt it be better if you did it black to go with a black theme I think that would look better, I'm not really fond of blue
EDIT: search for ShootMe in the market for screenshot app

Hi there, after we've got root, we can finally customize our devices!
I've started creating a new (or better to say, editting default) theme. I'm not going to create a fully custom shiny theme with custom widgets design and so on. I just want to get rid of that ugly SE clinic-blue.
I don't have much free time, but i'm going to keep moving to the end )
Now it's about 40-50% ready. There are still a lot of blue, but it's usable. You can try it (as always, at your own risk )) ).
Just put the framework-res.apk into /system/framework/
P.S. I had to recover my device after i've putted framework-res.apk on it for the first time. I think, permissions must be changed to 755 before rebooting. After recover I always change permissions and have no problems )
(one more time: root is needed).

Theme updated. I have mixed it with this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=759320
(look for install instructions!!!)
08.09.2010
Some less blue:
Phone.apk - Incomming call slider, mobile internet on/off icon
DownloadProvider.apk - Download icon
Blue Level = min )))
It's looking pretty nice man, although I'm not confident enough to install it
great job dude goodluck
Yes !
Keep on dude, you'll be the first one to make us a mini framework and so stay in our hearts...forever ;-)
Thx
I'm waiting for it! This blue makes me crazy.. (;
yay, gonna use it when it's 100% finished !
Yay, the blue theme it comes with is disgusting. It'd be even more awesome if you could make it look like the default android theme
Good work mate, well done! Its good to see some people are starting to get somewhere with these phones.
Thats a great improvement, but what about rest of icons ?
I'm sure many others will pickup this idea and make new themes, why not share info on what is where and how you've done this?
Thanks mate!
P.S. I really like new status bar icons, but background should be black like on SENSE-enabled
Could you port this theme please :

Is it possibile to have an .apk "grey theme" file with blu original color as background of notification bar? (only this).
So, I like grey, but in this upper bar I think blu is better
Thanks!
PS: great the battery icons that change its colors depending of battery status
Hi dopeless, have you finish this grey theme. I love this grey theme but could you use the icon set with transparent background. It's must be more beautiful with transparent background icons.
Thanks in advance.

Off-topic question. how do you get the 4 shortcuts in you dock, I can only seem to get 2?
Ignore me, I've done it!
P.S. Great theme!
Hello guys, for those who saw my post in the themes and apps section here it is and for those who dont know what im talking about well this is a gingerbread themed cm6.1.1 stable with some other stuff added while we wait for cm7.
I recommend doing a wipe prior to flashing this since there are some people getting bootloops cause they flashed on top of what they were running... so WIPE and then flash this.
INSTALL THIS AT YOU OWN RISK, im not responsable for anything that happens to your phone or if you just jizz in your pants when you see how awesome this theme is xD
Changelog:
Version 1.1:
-Changed/mixed animations
-Fixed little error in kb and themed it green
-Browser has black nav bar
-Changed a lot of icons (thanks miguel)
-Pulldown bar is grey. more nexus s style.
version 1.0 (Full rom)
-Optimized framework
-New bootanimation
-Gingerbread theme (lockscreen, pulldown bar, notification bar, wallpaper)
-Themed phone, contacts and browser to match
-New fonts nexus s like.
-New animations (not gingerbread, this one)
-Added some green highlights when you select something instead of the defaullt orange
-Gingerbread keyboard.
-New market, new youtube (old news) and new gmail i think.
-Gingerbread launcher
-Theme for launcher pro (CHECK 4th POST FOR ICONS)(Launcher pro not included)
-MIUI music (see screenshot... i like it i dont know about you)
-Oh and i almost forgot.. adfree (hosts file updated)
Stuff removed:
-Maps are not included, download from market or backup with titanium before flashing this.
-I think thats it...
Credits and thanks goes mainly to Cyanogen and #teamdouch for giving us something to play with, brswattt for the original theme, krispy for the fonts and some framework files, to migueltherocker and htcclay for helping me fix the colors on the fonts and big thanks to all the xda community/devs/slide owners and supportive people in this forum

First let me say that I am not a dev nor can I properly edit .9.png files yet. These are just 'Tweaks' I made to the Stock Samsung MMS by switching png files. A few are quite nice while others,... well, I included them because someone just might like them. Right now these are installable manually which is faster than flashing. I do hope to have them in flashable form soon, however.
The installation instructions are step by step so any noobs can install with no problems. Use the paid version of Root Explorer. First delete or move you current Mms.apk to your external SD card (in case you want to reinstall it later). Then place the new Mms.apk in System/app, longpress on the file and choose 'Permissions', uncheck the boxes to match rw-r--r--. If the new app doesn't show up right away, reboot.
I have no probems sending Sms or Mms and get all my audio notifications although I know this is not the case with everyone. I don't have all the answers, so if you can help with any information on why certain people can't send Sms or Mms, please share it. And if you want to just say 'Thanks' to anyone, please use the 'Thanks' button
Thanks for their work go to Team Whiskey, MikeyMike01, KCB877, TonicAcid, and the devs of BlackFroyo!
I've attached thumbnails for you to see what you are getting! I've covered up my contact picture with various symbols (arrow, hat, etc), so these all include the contact picture.

went through various themes and roms and patched a bunch together. I didn't edit any pngs as I stated before, I used different bubbles, icons, notification icons etc and put them all into one. I also edited the contact pictures out using ninja morph to get rid of the gradient and blank contact pic so it's black, I don't use contact pictures at all.
Also, if you want a dark icon look at the one I used for Loki 2.0, it's a dark launcher icon, still the smiley launcher like the green and blue, just dark. Grab the blue launcher I have too, it's not the bright one that was floating around, its the normal blue, matches well with the themes or the other blue icons like navi.

Sorry guys, no one has posted in here in forever, so I just poke my nose in every once in a while to check the downloads. Yes, it does fix the blurry mms problem, but not the current one on 2.2.1 Roms. For that there are two fixes, the first from the new 4g port, and then Jellete made a separate one.

Your welcome, duce! That is a good question and I don't know the answer because it depends upon the theme you are using I think. Right now I'm using clean tangerine, so my notification icon is orange. I'll guess that the default icon is blue, knowing Samsung, lol!

Just to be more exact, the reason a captivate rom would not work with this is because of AT&T. They have some message center that their particular mms app calls. Everything will work fine until you try to send something, then it will FC. I know this because the original mms that I made was the Gingerbread one made by MikeyMike from the Captivate threads. It was a phenomenal app with more funtionality and twice the size (in bytes) as any other mms.apk I'd seen.
Apk's can be really strange. The Galaxy Tab email.apk will work in either 2.2 or 2.2.1. So will the TouchwizGTG launcher from the Tab as well as many other .apk's. Then you come across some that don't work like the OceanWaves live Wallpaper. Just didn't want you to automatically assume .apk's from other Roms would automatically not work. You must test them yourself.

I'm still investigating what works with what. It would be easier if I would flash something else and test it myself, but I'm not willing yet. My health hasn't been that great lately. I can manage to edit simple .9.png's though, so that might goad me into redoing everything.

It looks very goooood. I want it on my Legend!!!!
But i use Blayo´s Rom and dont want to change to cyanogen...
I flashed the Mattedblues theme made for the EVO (I think, found it in this thread) on my HTC Legend last night, and it basically almost works.
It looks amazing, and as far as I'm able to tell, there are no visual problems with the skin itself.
Thing is, if I try to turn off WiFi, I'm thrown back to the boot animation. It then boots up normally, with the WiFi still on.
I don't know if this is caused by settings on my phone, or by the skin being incompatible with the Legend. I tried to flash the version of the theme made for the G2 just now, but the same problem occurred.
Thanks Eirki, I posted your feedback here in case someone can advise:

Good idea, thanks. I would love to have this work for the Legend, it's by far the most polished CM7 theme I've seen.
Just tried installing for cm7.
Besides the wifi, I also found the keybord having grafic error ect. Gallery also broken.
awesome skin, if it worked proparly.

I now have MattedBlues working on my Legend. I used the method this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841720 (Method 1). It was actually fairly straightforward.
Using that method, I merged the theme-files from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=959065 with the files from the offical CM7.0.3 zip file. Just make sure you download the theme which is compatible with current version of CM.

Would you mind sharing the result with us?

Do you mean sharing the modified theme-files, or sharing a screenshot? As I have said in this thread, I don't feel comfortable with anyone distributing other versions of the theme without the creator's explicit permission.
But it really isn't difficult merging the files yourself. You should try it. =)

Maybe you can post a description of your achievement in the official theme thread, along with asking the creator for permission to post the theme for others? I personally think the creator will be happy his/her theme has reached another device??!!
It's all about sharing. Otherwise places like XDA wouldn't really be what it is today..
Eirki, how did you port phone.apk to mdpi?

I really didn't do anything in particular with phone.apk. Is the theme-porter method not working for you? If it's a problem with the dialer, I might not notice, as I'm using Go Dialer.
@C_Man: Good point. I posted a question here. I fairy new to both Android OS and XDA, and I don't much of the etiquette yet. Figured I'd tread carefully.

Yeah i guess you also converted with hdpi to mdpi with theme-porter. If you do that everything works except the dialer.
The creator - jabbawalkee - said that, as long as I give proper credit, I'm free to distribute it.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1699092/MattedBlues_for_HTC_Legend_CM7.0.3.rar
Here are the files that I've used. Apart from the dialer, some notification icons and the font being a little small, it's working like a charm.
If someone has an easier way of sharing files, that won't eat my monthly dropbox bandwith, please let me know =)
Also, I see people talking about a "thank you" button, but I can't seem to find it. Any hints?
I wrote a short howto and put it in the rar, but I recommend you check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841720 anyway. Good luck with the theme, remember to do a nandroid backup before you try anything.
The 'Thanks' button is near the Quote/MultiQuote/QuickReply buttons on the bottom right of each post. I can see 3 people have thanked you for your above post and file share
You mention: "some notification icons and the font being a little small," ...are you able to notify us:
- which notification icons?
- where is the font small?
This will allow us to report any other wierd behaviour.
1] Is this for 7.0.3 and above only or 7.x ?
2] Do we need S-OFF?
3] Do we need [MOD] full r/w access via overlay filesystem (any ROM) for this to work?
Thanks once again!
Notification icons:
The roaming icon (looks like the regular signal strength icon, only with an R on it) does not appear to be themed. Instead it's the standard green.
Also, for some reason, when wifi is turned off, the signal strength icon is gray not blue.
I don't use 3G or edge, so I don't know how those icons look.
The battery percentages icon is very difficult to read. This is easily bypassed by checking "Battery Percentage" in CM settings -> Interface -> Status bar tweaks. It's a shame though, the special made percentage icon is a lot fancier.
Font size:
This is most noticeable in the Launcher Pro Plus widgets, especially the Friends widget and the Pulse news reader app. It's definitely readable, but still a minor nuisance.
If this is a deal breaker to you, there's always the option of not installing the font or installing a different one. (If anyone knows a font that looks good on the Legend, let me know.)
1: CM-version: I have only tested these specific files on CM7.0.3. I made them by combining the MattedBlues files for 7.0.3 with files from the CM7.0.3 zip file. For all I know, they may work on other versions as well. If not, the MB files for other versions can easily be converted to Legend-compatibility.
2: Mine is S-ON, so I wouldn't think you need S-OFF (I don't really know what S-OFF entails, I'm somewhat of a newbie.)
3: Now, I have no idea what that is. I sure never did that with my phone. Looks like a way to write files to /system without booting into recovery. I just boot into recovery =)
Thanks for the above!
I look forward to trying it out!

Don't worry, this isn't a theme-related issue.
In 'pure Android', when you are online AND have the ability to connect to Google servers, the bars are green. When you don't have access to Google servers, the bars go grey. So the behaviour you see is normal [just replacing blue for green of course].
Question regarding the Apps folder in the *.rar file in post #16 above...
Can we simply delete the APK and ODEX files for the applications we don't want to install with the ROM or is completely the wrong and unstable way of doing it?
Recently, after trying alot of ROMs, I decided to come back to a more battery care system. Because I love the original SE Theme, and because when I tried themes made for other ROMs/versions my X8 crashed, I made this blue theme. I don't know if it works for others, but for floyo-0.20 surely do.
I made two versions:
- one with the original battery icon and
- one with a circle battery
If you like it, you are welcome to use it.
Thanks! I like the floyo-0.20 most too!
can you make SE theme for froyobread? tnx in advance

maybe you open your eyes
[Theme] SE Theme for FroyoBread
Seems interesting, but does this framework contains SE stock sliders for unlock/calls or uses the Android ones?
@ vjun: I used stock images, but the sliders are from Floyo. I like more those from Froyo.
@ Coffinator: I can't take screen captures for now because I am calibrating my battery (really ). But the script allows you to revert if you don't like it.
NB. The script it's not mine. The credits goes to him, someone on this forum.
And, BTW: choose SENSE_Stock theme, and reboot. So it worked for me.

Ok, thx, i'll try it.
@ Coffinator: as you know, for floyo-0.20 the battery lasts more than two days
Finally, I finished the calibration and I'm able to post some screenshots. If isn't too late ...
looks great. love the blue of the SE theme!
