I am trying to find some roms that cater to the women who have rooted and want a girly look to their phone. I flashed Droid Does Pink to my phone last night and love the girly feel to it..it is sense based and is overclocked. I also downloaded the hello kitty icon pink icon pack for use with the better cut app to further complete the girly look. I am loving the fact that there is so much pink on my phone..dialer, clock, battery widget, etc ALL PINK!!! Any ideas and suggestions are welcomed. Or if there is anyone reading this that makes custom roms please make some for the ladies. Thanks
Glad to hear you were able to customize to your taste. There aren't many (or any) "girly" roms because not too many girls like to get this technical with their phones. Good to see there is at least one though.

There may not be any technical women who want to root their phones but I'm also thinking along the lines of guys who root phones for their women. I found a purple rom but I think it was for the motorola droid.
I didn't think I'd want to root but once I found the easy root thread and jumped in head first its not as bad as I thought. Customizing is fun..now I'm trying to learn to partition my card and change my lock screen!

there is a theme (for eris phones) that's all pink. I think it's called "Droid Does Pink" or a variation of that.

I can empathize with this situation.
Rooted my gf's phone just to put it fully on Cricket - would be nice to have a Pink SenseUI ROM with the July 24 OTA.
You could also use a rom that can use metamorph for themes. I know there was at least one pink metamorph theme(pink ice or something like that) that was compatible with my cyanogen 2.1 rom. I think roms with metamorph give you a little more options in that regard. I actually made Droid Does Pink rom so that my wife would let me root her phone as their were no girly roms or themes at that time at all.
Thanks conap for your rom! I really like it! Is metamorph compatible with the droid does pink as well

No metamorph won't work with that rom.
If you want I can make you some pink icons for bettercut

I'm also interested in the "purple" rom for my wife's Eris. Captiankrtek when do you think your rom will be out and will it be sense, or froyo?
Conap I love your work also! My wife loves the droiddoespink theme but it's a sense rom and she's been on kaosfroyo for a while and loves it. Any way you can make an update.zip for just the droiddoespink theme so that it can be applied to other roms??
I have to say that most women probably don't get into the technical aspects of their phones, but for some reason, I totally geeked out on mine. It freaks my husband out a little, I think. He helps me with my car, I fix his phone. It works well.
Coming from this perspective, I hope we aren't going to see an explosion of pink android themes... pretty please. Stick with the badass stuff like usual.
In more and more posts I see devs talking about rooting/testing with their wives' phones. Maybe it wouldn't be such a bad idea if a dev worked on a small line of girlied out ROMS for the ladies. My ma would love a purple or skyblue one :wink wink:

I am very interested in this purple Rom for my sister...I am going to root her phone and she is purple obsessed. How is the progress coming on it? I actually found one in the Droid forum and requested a port. It looks awesome.
I was wondering if the purple version is finished and if you can release it or link to download. Plus purple is my wife's favorite color.
Thank you.

I'm a lady, and I don't feel compelled to roll my phone in pink...
I sort of like the "boyish" themes.
Does anyone know where I can get the icons from the Droid Does Pink Rom?

I have a few old themes that I made for the G1 way back when that I was thinking of recreating for the MT4G. My question is which, if any, would you guys like to see? I would be making it for the community and not for myself.
There are already plenty of good ones out that I've settled on so this would all be for you guys.
Check my Signature for links to the old G1 threads and have a look at them. Of course everything would be updated to fit 2.2 and 2.3 standards as well as higher resolution for everything.
What about darkstar...i think thats what it was called...i used it all the time on my mytouch 3g

Darkstar was created by a team of dev's which did not include me. I only listed themes I worked on so unfortunately no DS from me. Sorry
If you do remake them, will they work on stock ROM or will it still need a home replacement?

These themes do not require a Home Replacement. They are themes you would have to be rooted to use and have to flash to apply.
I am working on making an LBP2 theme that will require an Home Replacement and will be put up in the market but anything I put up on XDA won't need it.

I always loved your themes on the g1, I actually still have one on it. I think you should make some for cm7 theme manager so that you can sell them on the market. Since cm7 is on many devices you would get a lot more downloads since the theme manager works on every phone cm7 does. A lot of the guys are making free themes and donate versions of the same theme. I am not saying I wouldn't appreciate having the more in depth themes you are capable of making, I just think there would be a much larger target audience if you hooked up some awesome cm7 themes.

I will look into it. I stopped modding my G1 a long time ago and have been out of the loop on slot of things. Having gotten a MT4G, I want to get back into theme making. I have some new ideas as well but I love remakes.

Yes, I would love to use those on my MT4G
Looks like flipz made the switch and has started deving for the Evo 3D. Got this email a little earlier. So to everybody who loved Fresh ROMS on the Hero & OG Evo, we should be getting a 3D flavored one soon:
Hey Evo 3d users!
I have finally found the time in life to create Fresh for the Evo 3d. I will keep this email short and sweet.
Change log / info: http://--------------------------- please post any questions or issues on the site. The md5 for the download is on here too.
Download: http://-------------------------------
If you aren't a 3d owner, or not even an HTC/Sprint owner anymore then you don't need to worry about unsubscribing. I will be transitioning to a different contact method very soon where donors can just check my website for updates as opposed to me mass mailing everyone. So bear with me just a little longer.
Thanks as always,
-flipz

Yeah I'm downloading now. Will report back how it runs, though from his previous work, I know it will be good. Fresh ROM was the first ROM I ever ran on the Hero and actually introduced me into the world of Android custom ROMs and if I'm not mistaken it was the first custom ROM we had for the OG Evo. Or at least the first one that I remember. Good to see him onboard for the 3D.

Ha ha got the email yesterday too it looks like finally he was able to make it happened
heres the site where non donators/testers can follow the progress if they want while its still in testing btw.

well yes but the thread is closed :/
just went onto review.cyanogenmod.com (their gerrit) and there's not a public branch for shooter that I could find.
That's where I used to always go on heroc when I was wondering what new commits there were.
Sad there's not a public branch imho.
sorry OP for the off topic

yeah just noticed that. Only thing I can think of is toast got tired of the bs that was going on in the thread as it had been cleaned up 2x recently b4 he locked it.
Assume hes still cracking away at it and is just waiting to get through the current bugs before reopening it and putting up a new revision.
hes still cracking away at his kernel branch for it so itll only be time before the master gets it complete and worked out. the guy is too dang good at this. lol

I've been running Fresh since lunch today, and so far it's as good as any other rom I've tried. Very stock looking.
Haha that's pretty awesome.
Before I knew what I was doing, Fresh was the first and only ROM I used on my first Android phone.. the EVO 4G.
I modified and tweaked that thing to perfection. Glad to see flipz in action.
I think the closest thing we have to Fresh right now on the EVO 3D is SteelROM, which reminds me a lot of Fresh.
No hideous theming, no bloat, no random bs that breaks various features on ROMs. We need more of that around here!

If only more devs went this route, alot of roms out there have broken features that org came w the phone and wont fix it, too busy themeing the roms.

I also got the email yesterday and after the success with his ROM on my OG Evo, I downloaded it immediately. I have been running this since yesterday afternoon and have had no issues. It is running very smooth, not that I expected anything different.
I find the new theme kind of meh...it's real low energy and kind of boring.
I thought I was the only one.

Someone should show others some new way. Here is a lot of incredible people. I'm sure that we don't need google to show us how the design should look like, but we (community) are able and strong enought to create a bigger and better things that copying google themes... Only thing should be done, get right people in right time in right place
I'm not liking it either

How does it compare to Gingerbread and froyo then? Share your thoughts!
At first, I didn't really like the color scheme, but after using ICS for a while, its a much better sight then Gingerbread. Clean, vibrant.

Deal with it
CM7 nightly
I want to say that i thought it was really horrifying until i flashed the early port for the ns4g, in the end i thought it was really nice that it was consistent across the whole phone, and in the end made me start to like it.
however, im still on the M'eh side of it, I wanted to make just Golauncher UI related themes for a while now, no icons, just awesome UI's.
Anyone into that idea?
Who ever is responsible for the black unimaginative status bar of ICS and GB should be shot.
The data icons make me rage. Why are the arrows for send and receive next to the 3 instead of under it? Its not lined up. Its the only reason I refuse to use a ICS theme
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I just think that there are too many themes related to ICS and nothing new is coming.
I never liked gingerbread icons or ics I much prefer sprint lovers icons. To each it's own I guess.

It is pretty ugly IMO, and this coming from a guy who loves dark themes.
not good............................
I think they were trying to go for a unique look to really distinguish the Android ui. IMO it's well made and decent, it's just not my thing. It's like a user made CM7 theme I might download and try for a day but ultimately not keep.
I really like the minimalist style but NOT THE BLUE
Anybody made any custom skins yet?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Not yet. In order to modify and tweak certain graphical elements of the ui you need special tools. These tools haven't been updated to deal with sense 4 yet. Once they're updated though, you'll see skins and theming in general really take off.
Ok jus wonderin.....needed a lil somethin to spice my phone up because I think I'm gonna wait til they get LTE working before I root....dunno if I wanna deal with the hassle of unrooting to get updates ya kno
