Hi, I just got a Acer liquid E and i'm completely new to android. I'm trying to load some themes that has extra stuff on the lock screen and i'm guessing i have to hack it to do so. I'm just wondering if someone could give me a rundown on it or give me some links on what i need to know. Thanks
To theme your phone you will need to hack a bit, but it changes from phone to phone. To customize your lockscreen just download WidgetLocker Lockscreen from the market: http://market.android.com/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker

Hi everyone! This is my first post so don't doubt to tell me anything i do wrong...
I just finished a little icon pack for my LG GT540, and i'd like to share it with you. I've taken a little bit of here and a little bit of there to customize my launcher app shortcuts, hope you like them.
If anyone would like to give me any tips or recommendations about them i'll be pleased.
Thanx for this amazing forum!
Two more icons: XDA app and tether. Hope you like them. Still waiting for opinions.
I just learned how to make screen captures of my cell! And of course I learned on this forum...thanks guys! Here are some caps of my GT540 with my icons, hope you like them. And if anyone could tell me if the Bobclock widget is available in spanish it would be great.
PS: Could anyone tell me if there is any EASY way to turn the buttons of the Network switcher widget into red? that would be awesome...

Thanks for your answer, but you have to be a little bit more specific. Please explain me how to do that or link me to a post where that stuff is explained, thanks again.
After some hours reading threads, fighting against png's, adding system paths, and signing apk's (never did any of these before...), i got to change my widget icons!!!i'm not sure how it got to work, but it works!
My last quest would be to change the widget font color, anyone can help with that?
PD: pashinator thanks again for your short but helpful post, the word "res" helped me find a thread where i learned where the icons are!
PD2: If anyone want to know how i did any of the steps, just ask.
I change my icons all the time so if you need just pm me and I will guide you fully.

I was wondering if anyone could make me a firefighter theme for my vibrant. I have one on my ipod that I love but cant find a good one for my phone. I cant figure out if there is anyway to get the theme off the ipod to use some of the images. If anyone know how please help. I do not know anything about theming but I will post it up on here so that people could make me a theme. Here are some pics I took. couldn't figure out how to do screenshots on the ipod.
What rom are you on?

Would love to see one of these too!!! Using Trigger 3.2 Everyone at my station would be jumping to Android if they saw something like this and it had pictures like Fireman1937 posted.

If nobody will make you a theme (and all honestly, I doubt anyone will) you could always use this quick workaround.
1. Connect your iPhone to computer, use iFunBox to extract the PNGs from your theme
2. Transfer said PNGs to your Vibrant
3. Use ADWLauncher to set custom icons for your apps
4. Set fire as wallpaper
4. ???
5. Profit!
Keep in mind, this won't change the icon in the app tray, but they can't all be winners.
Thanks to everyone that has posted on this thread unfortunately I am getting rid of my vibrant and getting a dell streak. Hopefully I will like it and try to theme for it. If not it will be up for sale. Thanks again.

I am still working on this . I want to use them on my streak when I get it. I am trying to pull the .pngs now.
I cant find the .png for this theme. Any help. I installed it through cydia/ winterboard
Hi all
I've just updated to a new rom - GingerMod 0.8. Unfortunately the new rom doesn't have the live wallpaper I really liked. It was Japanese Acer leaves floating on water with a reflection of a tree in the water - really beautiful. You could create ripples in the water by touching the screen. Does anyone know where I can download this?
Thanks
Frank

Thanks Maddes but sadly it doesn't work. Any ideas?

This only works on rooted phones.
Hello all! I am currently running CMX with a TouchWiz 5 theme. I installed the TouchWiz Launcher port along with a few different zips I have found across xda. My phone has most TW widgets, sounds and stock apps. I feel a lot of people would love to run this ROM. I have no idea how but is there a way for me to generate a zip of my setup so that others could enjoy it?
What do you guys think?

i like!!!! i would rock it all day!! :good:
Anyone that is interested or knows how to get the ball rolling please point me in the right direction. I am extremely happy with this set-up. Forgot to mention it even is running the SGS3 Camera Port as well. It's heavily themed.
please
I would love to contribute to the community. Just need to be pointed in the right direction. Similar to SVN?
The one thing I'd love to have on my ROM is the TouchWiz lock screen. My sisters both have SGII's and I love how you can flick away the lock screen

You can use this to make an update zip. Just put the apks in their respective places. The theme would probably be in data and the launcher in system.
The only issue I see is if this is the TouchWiz 5 theme you speak of it can't be included because it's a paid app.
Like the setup, i have been looking for something like this a little while.
Can you post how you did it in the meantime

I found another update zip creator that is more generic and less device specific than D4.

Here's a guide that explains an easier way to mount system and data by using busybox instead of finding the mount points.

Edit: This thread will help you find mount points if you need too..

Edit2: ^^ I agree. Can you post what you used for everything? Where did you get the launcher, the widgets, the sounds, the stock apps, the theme, and maybe the wallpaper/s?
Anything new on this?

I wrote a couple of devs seeking help. I am a full time student and I work full time as well. I thought about releasing a HOW to guide. I have not given up.
Pimp my ROM seems to have the full tw launcher and some widgets. Cannot confirm if all are there. You can then get a tw theme from market and you should be set. I am on decks 10-10 build (4.1.2) and the theme is not working but launcher is

Dear All,
Since a few days I've got the Huawei Ascend Mate Smartphone.
Huawei got the opinion that the Stock Android is not nice to work with etc.
Well I do like the Stock Android version and that's why I want to use their official Android Rom and change it to Stock as Possible.
But to get some more information to change the Launcher, Lockscreen and Settings I need to know where to Look.
For it doesn't make sense that if I add Novalauncher.apk or Tebuchet Launcer and delete the HW version that it will solve the issue.
Is there a site or a knowhow what which system APK is doing and what so ever?
Cause I dont want to annoy you guys with all these questions, but I need start somewhere.
SystemUI.APK for example, what does it do? I changed it, but dont see any differences.
If I add Trebuchet.apk to /system/app where do I need to change the fact that this will be the basic so when I do a new install the installer knows what to do.
If I'm getting further and further and I see the hanging out of it, I would like to merge from version 4.1.2 to 4.3.
I'm sorry if im one the thousend but Google did not help me with all my questions!
Thanks in advance!
Pull/remove/delete the stock launcher AFTER u install and activate the new one. Titanium Backup pro and ROM toolbox pro w/ Root Browser are good apps to use for this and worth EVERY PENNY. Don't forget to change permissions when needed and reboot afterwards for changes to take effect.

I did and thanks for your tips.
The only thing is that my lock screen is deleted and now I've got a strange lock screen that is not really in the middle. I think this is related to the standard android version. Any idea where I can find that one?

Time to theme it... You can manually do so if it's that much of a problem or DL a lockscreen app

No i want to learn, so I will check with 'theme'.
