Hello everyone:
I've tried everything, I've looked at the entire vibrantdump.zip, Eugene's vibrant4.zip, and the only thing I can find is the Sims launcher. I cannot find the apk for the entire game. I'm running Bionix 1.9 and it's great, but since I paid for the game when I got the phone, It'd be nice to get it back up and running. Can anyone help out? PM me if you have to, I'd really appreciate it.
Cheers =^)

Lol, I have the sims .apk but not the launcher. Search for com.ideaworks3d.thesims3.apk and you will find what you're looking for.
Thanks!!!
Thanks!!! I'll give it a shot!
Ok... I got the .apk, installed it, and it plays, but the graphics are off. Alot of it just displays as white without showing the original texture and color. Any ideas?
Just flash the stock ROM and you will have it !

I agree. Reflash using odin and make a nandroid backup before deleting apps.
Ok, thanks for the replies, everyone. I know some of the stock roms out there have the bloatware removed, so does anyone have advice on which stock rom I can use that would get my phone back to factory stock with all the bloatware and hopefully will also includes the new OTA update. If you could point me to the right thread, I'd appreciate it. I'm not sure which one is the best to use for what I want to do.
I'm on Bionix 1.9 right now. I also noticed that The Sims and the Avatar launcher were removed. I never even played the Sims, but I figured I'd try it. The only thing I could think of to retrieve it was to nandroid back to stock, back up the .apk with Astro (titanium backup wasn't seeing it for some reason), nadroid back to Bionix, and then install it. That all worked out just fine. However, there seems to be no launcher for it. An dwhen you browse to the .apk in Astor, and try to "launch" it, it gives me this error:
activity not found - com.ideaworks3d.thesims3
Does anyone have any idea how to get it working again, after flashing a custom rom that removed it along with various other pre-installed apps? Thanks in advance.
Maybe along with the apk you need the 'data_tmo/games' directory that has the data files. That may be why your game runs but without the textures and graphics.

Thanks bro
This is awesome! I used a font pack to make my font Exocet (Diablo 2's font). Here it is for anyone else that wants this. Only problem is there isn't a degree symbol. So on temperatures there is only a big period. If anyone can fix this let me know. I'm also going to look into it. In the meantime, it still looks amazing!
EDIT: I fixed the degree symbol so now it's not a period. This font looks great! And is it weird that I've gotten better battery life with this font?
PS: I am now the envy of all of the nerds at my workplace!

If your on a gingerbread rom they will not work because of clockwork 3xx we have to wait till that's figured out.
Used this to rid the Royal Thunder Rom of the fancy yet hard to read font, solution is simple downgrade cwmod version to a 2x reboot into clockwork, flash font, reboot then simply revert to 3x recovery.. all better Hope this is useful.

Some of you might already know this, but I always recommend trying Root Tools in the market. It comes with easy to install Fonts
Has anyone found a way to change fonts on CM7? There are edify packages in the big fontpack thread, but they don't work, nothing changes. I tried dropping the ttf's in the system font folder then clearing cache partition and dalvik cache, just bootloops. It's the last visual element I'm trying to change to combine the awesomeness of froyo and gingerbread.

It worked for me. I'm running a Vibrant CM7, and I flash fonts like it's spring break. I flashed a 2.5.1.2 recovery. What error did it give you? If it gives you the edify scripting, you need to double check the script in the font pack. If update-binary and updater-script are not in there, then it wont work.
This mod is specifically for DL09. If you are on DJ05, you can find a similar mod here.
Most themes already have reboot options added, but if you're like me you prefer the stock theme. Because there have been no releases of the reboot options mod since DL09, I took the time today and added it to the DL09 framework (specifically the android.policy.jar, framework.jar, and framework-res.apk). Once it was added, I realized very quickly that there was a problem--it only worked with the stock glass/puzzle lock. This is because stupid me used a stock deodoxed android.policy.jar and not Adrynalyne's modified one from Supah Clean. So, I pulled the policy from Adrynalyne's ROM, edited it to work with the reboot options, and repackaged it with my prior edits to the framework.jar and framework-res.apk. End result: it worked!
Precaution
You must be deodexed for this mod to work! Don't even try to flash this on stock. If you don't know if you are deodexed, use a file manager and go to system>app and see if you see any .odex files. If you do, you're not deodexed. If you don't, you're deodexed.
Credits
(1) Untermensch - the original creator of the mod for the Vibrant. It was his guide I used to do this.
(2) Adrynalyne - as mentioned above, I used his android.policy.jar from Superclean as a base.
For those who are not familiar, I have attached a picture below to show you what the reboot options look like. Basically, they give you the ability to reboot, reboot recovery, and reboot download mode. Again, these can be found in just about every theme. Their purpose here is to give you the option to apply them to a stock theme.
Below are the zips to apply the mod. Simply flash via CWM and enjoy!
EDIT 1: I pulled the original zips because weird **** was happening when flashed over a theme. I realized later that all I needed to do was add the stock twframework-res.apk to update script to fix the problem. You now should be able to flash this over any theme you have already applied.
EDIT 2: Added accurate (circle) battery. I pulled images from one of the themes .... can't remember which.
Can somebody mirror this or, Ben, can you place a dif link? Totally would love the aosp with reboot options but I.get a dropbox error....something about files are safe but...( i.can't remember the rest). Thanx in advance

Use Root Explorer and go to Data>Local. Create a file (not folder) named enable_glass_lock. You can also simply flash the zip again (just don't wipe data after doing so). There is no need to wipe data before or after applying this mod.
So I can just flash this over my stock dl09 with otb voodoo 1.3ghz kernel and I get that sicc battery and reboot options and nothing else changes?

Well I ddnt wait long enough for you to reply haha I gave it a go not because of the reboot options but more for the battery circle. So I installed the puzzle lock option on my stock dl09 non deodexed stock rom runing otb voodoo oc 1.3ghs stock voltage and I selected to backup to be on the safe side. It backed up everthing then abortd installation so it said!!! After installation said aborted it sat at the backup screen so I held down all three buttons cause I hate raking my battery covr off. Ebooted phone. Flawless everything works perfect with that cool battery circle but I do not have the reboot options. Don't mind though just wanted my battery percentage in the status bar. So just to let everyone know at least you get half the mod haha. I'm happy. I am not deodexed cause I've done so much to this phone and just don't wanna start over. If someone know how to get me deodexed without starting over id appreciate it. If I'm saying something wrong forgive me as I'm not an expert in this. I mainly mess with my viewsonic g tab. I would alo like to just get my status bar black in color. But don't care to change anything else. But would deal with minor changes just don't wanna lose stuff and have to start over.
Thanks a lot

You could try xeudoxus on droid forums xUltimate, it's really easy to use and it just adb pulls files from your phone, deodexes them then you adb push them back. dont worry there are instructions on how to if you need the help, he also has an xUltimate that helps you edit hex codes for color changes on your apk and jar files, again instructions are available. here is the link with the info, and if you get stuck during the process there are read me files and a link supplied in the files to his site. Happy Modding

good day.
Im looking for this exactly but for the EB05 build. Does it exist somewhere else? I'd even settle for just the AOSP lock screen.....
Since I saw some AMAZING themes but I was unable to install'em, I wanna ask if somebony is able to link some themes which are compactable with Khalpower's V4 GalaxtXT ROM, couse I tryed like 20-25 themes and from all only DarkFroyo V2 and 1 more works.
Thanks alot!
The Honeycomb-theme works fine on V4 (except that you need to replace the keyboard with some keyboard from the Market, but that's the only bug there is).

Kahl has this one posted somewhere in one of his threads. It replaces the stock LatinIME.apk & works fine. Just copy the zip to openrecovery/updates boot into Open Recovery, appy the update, wipe the dalvik-cache & cache partitions & reboot.

When i try to apply the galaxyxtv4 theme update, it does not work! i still have the red theme and i dont know what to do anymore. Isnt that how one apply a theme? am i missing something?
I believe others had issues with that update too. If you're running the PersonaRedv4 I think you can just restore the system partition from KP full GalaxyXTv4 (nandroid restore) & wipe the dalvik-cache & cache partition & reboot.
I was wondering... if I install propper theme which works woth this rom but replace apps from other theme (and apps are more - 6 in compactable theme and about 20 in that one that I will replace with), so will it work as it works with bootanimation, couse if I keep the working theme but put difetent bootanimation it still works.
I'd give a guarded yes. If the filenames of the apps you want to replace match EXACTLY (e.g. maps.apk is not the same as Maps.apk) then they will be overwritten. If they don't match your best bet is probably to remove the apps you want to replace before installing the new ones. You will be limited as to the size of the system partition so adding files as system apps could be problematic but replacing one modded app with another should generally be OK. Another thing to note is (I think) not all apps can be installed as system apps. Note that it is always a good idea to do a nandroid backup before you try making the changes so (when) things go wrong (and they will ) you can get back to a functioning device as painlessly as possible.
Hi guys.
I'm looking for a working Gingerbread Theme for the V4XT rom.
Could you please help me?
Thanx in advance.
I was wondering if this one coud work? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9784619&postcount=13
I was previously used it on my original 2.1 Rom and it was absolutely perfect.
I have today tried to install many themes with the new khalpower v4.
Result was the follwing: I was able to get a decent outcome. Keyboard bug could be fixed but after a couple of theme flashes things started to get weired. First my gmail app stopped working.
After that I only got jibberish as fonts so that I was unable to change languages or anything else for that matter.
I'd very much appreciate ports for the new v4. Right now I'm using the fix described above. Thanks so much! Worked like a charm

I'm going to try this right now had to SPF after trying to edit lanucher2 and framework.apk lol. I Have an idea in my head to tweak, but i'm not completely familiar with android. If i just edit images to start out with, should I have to edit any code if the file names are the same?
I flashed this and there's no home lanucher on it. Not even default one, I even SPF'd and there's no home launcher!

The Only Bug I've Heard Is Some That Don't Get A Home Launcher. I Haven't Been Told If They're Coming From Stock, Minimal, Or What. I Don't Think It Needs To Be Wiped As It's The Same Base ROM. I Flashed Mine 3 Times With No Wipe Just To Be Sure It Was Gonna Be Okay.
