To install a new theme, do we just install it? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I'm really new to rooting and customizing this so I was wondering if to install a new theme, I had to uninstall it? If so, how? And if not, do I just flash another theme in recovery mode?
I'm currently using this, Blue Myst v1.0 and I want to check out other themes.
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you!
EDIT: Also, how do I add more home screens to themes? MotoBlur had 7, and when I flashed GingerBlur, the default theme for that had it as well. But this theme only has 3 home screens.

Blehh, I managed to make this work but only the theme updates, the UI or buttons don't update. The notifications bar on the top updates and the boot screen updates but everything else is the same.
I installed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1042365 this theme with Blue Myst still installed. Whenever I uninstall LauncherPro it'd go to the MotoBlur UI but have the same notifications bar but when I reinstall it, it changes to another UI that's not either theme's.
So basically my problem is, when I install a theme, only the Notifications bar and the boot screen update but everything else stays the same.
What's my problem?....

U realise v2 is out which should be flashed via cwm?

Dell Official Froyo Black Notification Bar Theme

Hi all,
Since Dell finally has a decent official release, I have created my black notification bar for build 12821. Reboot into clockwork and apply FroyoOfficialBlackicons.zip or FroyoOfficialBlack.zip. FroyoOfficialblack.zip is untouched icons with just black notification bar. Icons uses Dj Steve's 1.4.6 Froyo icons.

Also want to note that the official rom will wipe out clockwork recovery. So you must flash the zip immediately after flashing clockwork. Lastly, this was a huge pain in the ass to make. enjoy
Bugs
None!
Just installed this onto my 318 and its awesome dude! Thanks!!
All I need now is a black theme that has the round sectored battery icon that has the percentage in the middle of it and even a transparent theme with this battery.
Can I flash another mod on top of this that changes the battery icon or would I need a theme that has all the changes in it?

Thank for your interest! If the battery mod you would flash changes anything in framework-res.apk you will lose the black bar. I will look into making a version with the battery percentage. The transparent theme will be posted shortly.
Cool! Thanks again dude!!

It's the latest Clockwork
I am rooted via S1Click v1.5.5
Whats the dilly?
Thanks.
This froze up my Streak 30min after Clockwork started rebooting, I was stuck at the Dell boot screen.
Any fixes? A few times screen would flash to a blank homescreen with a black notification bar. I'm running DJ Steve's Froyo. And now my Streak doesn't work.

That's because this is for the Official Dell Froyo. A few posts up says there is a thread with the version of this for DJ Steve's ROM.
will it also work on rooted 351 ?

GingerKrad for 351

- Removed Carrier text
- Gingerbread theme with white text on black background
- different lock screen battery meter
- gingerbreadish unread count circle in green and not in red.
- If it doesn't flash chances are it is the services.odex. Let me know, i can upload a zip of just the framework, from there you can edit your own services.odex.
tried to install it, but it didn‘t work.
but to be honest I‘m not sure, if I installed clockworkmod correctly. simply tapped on the zip file in the download folder and rom manager prompted for the cache options and then rebooted, but just a normal reboot and no cwm there.
my streak is running 351, rooted.
what do i have to do?
is there a gingerkrad-version available with b/w icons insteaf of green?
appreciate your help.
cheers,
marc

can you tell me how to install this onto Dell Streak?
Thanks a lot
i tried replacing in root explorer and got stuck on boot .......maybe services.odex
update: okay today I tried with streak recovery and it worked flawless thanks alot krad .........it would be awesome if the pull down menu was transparent
I applied zip with streakdroidrecovery I work fine. Thanks !
Thanks mate, works great with StreakMod Recovery after installing .351.
But I have one other request, can you also enable it to work on DPIs higher than 200 (HDPI I guess it is). Because I currently have my DPI set to 200 and it will not work...
Works and looks great on rooted (Gingerbreak) stock 351 ROM.
Thanks, Krad!
Not sure if I can... when it intialialy goes through the kitchen the xml files get changed... by default graphics come. Out of the mdpi section or crappy section.. when kitchen js run it alters just thr battery graphics to the hdpi folder. So it is a combination of both. Haven't spent the time to look through the xml files because I altered everything so far the way I like it.

GingerKrad for 354
Dear Sir
Will you release GingerKrad for 354???
Thanks a lot~
just borked my phone loading streakdroid 2.0... Seems like a good starter build, but the graphics and random reboots has killed me.
I am just flashing 354 now... I will probably get sick of the stock look and redo gingerkrad for 354.. depends really on the build. Will give it a day or two.
Thank you
StreakDroid 2.0 did not run stable, waiting for your theme
Thank you so much~

[MOD]SprintLovers Icons, 1% battery for Stock2.08(odex&deodex) VIPER 1.3, SupraROM***

[MOD]SprintLovers Icons, 1% battery for Stock2.08(odex&deodex) VIPER 1.3, SupraROM***
All credit for these Icons goes to the creators of the Sprint Lovers ROMS onXDA as well as the original creator, schmittx].
Only issue at the present time is the SYNCing Icon is not animated. Working on it as this is being posted The 4G icon is also colored, but, the screenshot below doesn't show it because I was not in a 4G area when I took the shots.
Let me know of any issues. It can be flashed through TWRP Recovery, CWM, or unzipped and pushed to the appropriate locations.
\***Download link for 2.08(deodex and odex). Link for ViperROM 1.3**Download below***/
***8/23/2011***
***Confirmed Supported***
*Stock 2.08 (8/23/2011 Skin Support added by making battery discharging/charging icon background transparent. Should blend in with just about any skin or colored status bar.)
DOWNLOAD for ODEX HERE: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=L9MYS09L
DOWNLOAD for DEODEX HERE: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XLHA9OYI
**Support now for 2.3.4 base of Supra ROM 1.4.1, use the DEODEX version above, however, it does revert to stock quick settings after flash. Working on testing it as we speak.**
*Supra ROM (w/2.3.3 as base ONLY) Users of this ROM should download the VIPER ROM Icon link.
*Viper 1.3 RC1 ROM support. Link:http://www.megaupload.com/?d=URVQDUP8
*SteelH ROM 2.01
Enjoy everyone!! Let me know how you like. And hit that Thanks button if you are satisfied.
You my friend is a scholar and a gentleman!! Wish I can hit thanks twice! Works perfectly except for the animation sync like you said. Again Thanks!

Anything using the 1.13.xxx (latest OTA) base for their ROM. Read the OP of the ROM and it should state the base they are using.
Hope this helps and report back and let me know.
These are AWESOME but the battery has a black square around it and when you have a taskbar that is colored different than black....it's not so pretty. Is there a way to uninstall or possibly get the square around the battery to be clear? Thanks!

It is because the icons are linked to the framework-res.apk. I would need the framework-res.apk and the com.htc.resources.apk from the ROM you are using to fix it for you.
They are located in the /system/framework

If you are connected to the computer via USB, then you may get that error. When testing, I used the command adb reboot recovery to get into recovery, pulled the USB cord from the phone, waited a minute or so and flashed fine.
Initially, I was getting the same error when I created them. It was due to the mounting of the data partition, not the system partition. My best guess is that when USB is connected to the phone, the phone unmounts the data and system partition automatically, so in my updater-script, the first thing it does is mount those two partitions. If it can't, you will get that error. I would try flashing it again without being connected to USB and let me know.

I never did the messaging icons. However, it is currently in the works. Aren't you the one using these from the Kingdom days on the OG EVO? I thought I recognized your name

The phone was not plugged in. I was able to get it to flash by mounting the system(or data, can't remember which one it was and don't have my phone in front of me). After it booted up I had no icons or top bar. I rebooted and they still didn't come.
Needed to reflash my Rom to get my top bar back. Using Vipers latest Rom. Any idea's?
Thinking about flashing this, but is there any way to un-install if I don't like it?

ROMs based on build 1.13.xx will work, look on your ROMs thread and the dev usually states that the base of the ROM is.

Could be the framework-res.apk or the com.htc.resources.apk has changed in Vipers ROM. Are you running the Deodex or ODEX version....these were created using the ODEXED version of the Stock Sprint ROM using that framework-res.apk and com.htc.resources.apk as the base.

Quick Settings Has Incorrect text and Market Problems

On my HTC I finished Installing a new battery Icon (Glowing Crysis). Anyways I forgot to empty the cache before installing it and when I reboot I found myself in a little bug but not really bad. When I go to quick settings if a setting (for example Wi-Fi) is on instead of saying on it says Javascript and if it's off it says "Navigate Away from this page?". Basically it has all the text all messed up and in the market the Search bar has the backround to be one of the Glowing Crysis battery icons (Which led me to believe that the installation that caused the problem). Is there any way I can fix the problem without having to reinstall my rom? Btw the Rom I use is ViperRom.

Was the battery mod you installed a framework-res.apk? What other files did it come with? Those could easily mess up Quick Settings.

It sounds like you flashed the wrong
version of the mod. If its one of my battery mods, and youre on the latest version of viperROM, make sure you've downloaded the android 2.3 4 version of my battery mod

Bottom Bar Missing

Hi everyone,
I just tried the Windows 8 Metro theme and it's not working (I've already asked for support on their thread).
While upgrading, formatting in CWR, I've managed to make the bottom bar with the back button, etc disappear. I've tried a fresh install of Galaxy Task and it's still not come back. Is there anyway I can completely whipe the tab and install Task again? I think that would work. I've been restoring to defaults in CWR, but even on the normal ROM the bar has gone.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Try flashing another task theme should solve the problem it worked for me
