I don't know if anyone else is interested, or even if I'm just a n00b that stumbled upon something that everyone else already knows, but I'm so happy that I had to share.
I tested out Iced_Glacier, but ended up missing some of the stock stuff (everything I don't need I disabled through terminal emulator); what I did like though, was the sleek Androidian theme available on the Rom. I extracted the content of the .zip file, perused it some, and found the Androidian.apk in with the other stock themes. I installed it using the package installer, then when I looked in my themes it was the first one!
Edit: It has been noted that the Androidian.apk is in the market; but the following still holds true:
CALLING ALL DEVELOPERS:
To all you developers out there:
I think it would be cool to have more themes zipped up nicely into .apk packages like this, it makes for really easy installation, and it's very non-invasive.
Hopefully someone else can benefit from this thread, I know I was excited in my own n00bness to figure something <even this simple> out.
Thanks to beanbean50 the link to the .apk is in post #7...
Cool. Good job! Mind sharing that theme apk and a few screen shots?
I'm still stock and the very reason you said is what's been holding me back from a custom rom too.

See, I told you my n00bness would shine through! OP has been edited to reflect this.
"that theme" may be listed in the market but I've been trying for two days to actually download and install it. The download starts and then stops for no apparent reason with no error message, so does anyone have a link directly to the apk?
You could always try to do the same thing I did in the OP... Extract it from a rom.

So far, I have downloaded the newest MIUI Rom version, and pulled the APK for Phone, Contacts, and Contacts Provider. I am not sure where to find the rest of what I need. I know how to push them to the phone, but I don't know how to make a flashable version. I tried to push them to my phone as is, and got a FC along for phone, as well as the phone app itself didn't work.
Anyone have more info and want to help?
Edit: I uploaded the files for anyone. They are from MIUI 1.10.14.
Edit 2: Here is the link with the zipped APK's and Framework. It is in my Google Docs account so it should downlod fairly quick for anyone who wants to play with it.

I think u have to decompile and then recompile with correct x2 framework... Could be wrong here...

No idea how to do that, that is what I am getting at. I am just providing what I have dug up to make it easy for someone who has the ability. Or, if someone can learn me what to do, I would be happy to do it myself
If I get free time tomorrow, or this week, I'll gladly see what I can do. With a son due any day I can't make any promises. I've done some of this in the past.
I can get you links to de-compiling and what not tomorrow when I have access to my laptop.

Here is a link from the Fascinate group, it pretty much applies to Android in general though. It goes over the tools needed to decompile and whatnot. I'm sure there might be more to it than this, but it will get you started at least.

Wow... thanks man! Looks a little over what I am comfortable on using/testing myself on my only device. lol
Anyone comfortable with trying this?
It can be done. You will need to add all the framework resources that the apps are calling. Pull the framework from the miui build so that you know what to add.
as far as a flashable zip, can we just repackage your flashable for eclipse nitroglycerine33? When I worked on the Fascinate I just reused a theme zip to be able to flash instead of pushing.
God, how I would love to see MIUI on the X2. I actually just bought an older phone so I could run it.
I tried to upload the APK files and the Framework in 1 zip and it won't let me attach it. Says I am missing a security token. I am going to upload it somewhere else and post the link for you guys.
Added zip with framework and apk's.
Link is not working
Can any one extract these apks and post ?
So I am looking to create a ROM, but in which to do so I also need the basic function apps of the MT4G. So I guess my question is...
Does anyone one either have those files handy or know where I can download them from?
I thought there used to be a google app pack that was .apk, but I can't seem to find it.
Thanks,
Danny
i guess u can download the google apps package from cyanogen mod site
Wow. Thanks. You gave me info, but it would have also been awesome if maybe you left a link for me to follow.

Or, you could go to the myTouch 4G Developement section where there should be everything you want. The device database search is in the top right for a reason.
Okay so now my new problem is that my phone is now telling me it has an update, but when the phone reboots into recovery it doesn't let it finish the install. It only gets about 1/4 of the way and then has the error emblem. Does anyone know where I can get the update. I have looked on HTC's website as well as T-Mobile's website and neither of them have the .zip for me to download in order to do it.
If someone has this file that would be really awesome. I know the update isn't that important, but I would really like it.
Thanks in advance,
Danny
Hey guys, got a quick question. I am new to the HTC Rezound, but not to Android in general. I am coming over from the D2G, and was wondering if I can use either Ninjamorph, or an app like it, the same way I would use it on the D2G. My goal is to change apk icons, so I can basically create the exact look and feel I want. I have read around that you can do it on a computer, but computer usage is few and far between for me.
So basically what my end goal would be is to find an image, download it to my phone, use some sort of app, and be able to alter the properties of the .apk file I am working with, so that I can change the icon thats displayed in my app drawer. Not sure if that makes sense.
I have tried to look around, and I haven't found anything saying whether this will or will not work on the Rezound, so if this has been posted elsewhere, I apologize, please just link me over.
Thanks for your help in advance!

I am also wondering if Ninjamorph or Metamorph work with the Rezound. I too am coming from a Motorola device, DX. There was another post on here asking about changing notification bar icons and I posted the question at the end of that thread. Hopefully someone has an answer
I had a d2g as well before upgrading to resound. I believe you can use ninjamorph/metamorph. Atleast to decompile/recompile the .apk. I have changed some .pngs in systemui.apk but what I did was extract all with rootexplorer, make my changes, zip it back together then rename the .zip to .apk. it worked like a charm.

Found this application which was once only on i-application(iphone) working fine on our touchpad and yes it also plays good on my LG optimus one too. It is like google currents but a little different in work around. Enjoy the port.
Here is the app
Press thanks if I helped.........
no offense but I'm pretty sure i've seen this posted somewhere else..u might wanna give credit to the original poster who yanked this from the sg III launch event..

yes you are right but most of the posts and topics look nice, neat and clean.
and I think something is still better than nothing....
what do you say?
compared to the browser....you'd have to argue the need for this, it was designed for the phone (GS3) and all that's been done is ported from there. If they developer made a bespoke tablet version then it'd be nice. but hey, thats my beef with ICS at the moment, many apps are stretched and look wrong
I like it alot.... Thanks for sharing,I hadn't seen the other thread so glad to have the app on my og evo and touchpad

Someone was working on a version where they adjusted the fonts to make them look better on a tablet but I never saw the actual package posted.

I was working on it.... Never got it right, as it appears I was only able to change the UI fonts. The article fonts themselves appear to be set remotely and just displayed locally. So it didn't even fix the biggest issue with the fonts which is in the articles themselves. It only fixed the UI and header fonts. I was going to post the APK anyway, but I found a force close error when trying to add new feeds, so that made things not so nice. Add to that the fact that for some reason, the APK wasn't installable unless I re-signed it, that makes it difficult to switch between versions without uninstalling/reinstalling, I decided not to post the modified APK.
If a developer type wants, I can send the modified APK directly. I'm not going to post it here because it's A) not stable and B) didn't achieve the intended purpose anyway, and C) I don't want to have to support something that's broken/unfinished.
Anyone that knows how to decompile/recompile an APK can do the same thing I did. All I did was reduce the font sizes in the XML layout and values files. As I said though, that didn't have any effect on the actual article content, which appeared to be defined remotely.
Could someone please tell me what the stock clock/weather app for this phone is? I seen a preview and it looked great so I was wondering if its something
only for the Atrix or if it was an app I could install on my phone as well. I'm running Android Jellybean on my HD2 so I dont think I'll run into a problem of it
not being capatible since the system is pretty similiar. I've looked on several sites for the answer and my eyes are getting sore from searching so long.
Also if someone could upload the apk file if its not a paid app I would appreciate it very much. Thanks! :victory: The picture provided is the app I am talking about.
its from the new atrix hd. Search in the atrix themes and apps section to find the apk for it. Better yet here is the OP on it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1787403
Thanks. That led me a few places and I found a thread that had it named as "Rings Digital Weather Clock" on Google play.
Not nearly the same but still gives a nice look.
