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 am sure most of evo 4G team will develop . Kind of a "coming soon" of all stars in my opinion.
I really want a 3D photo bucket myself. As well as CM7 and other "goodies"

Well I'm working on a Monster Energy theme and it's the first them I've ever done. I could really use some help if anyone would be up to it. All help would be greatly appreciated.

Great thread! The only thing I would like to see is some kind of control for the capacitive button brightness. I prefer the Brightness widget with 3 settings. So if HTC doesn't come through with a fix maybe someone here could.
Actually... I'm not really doing a theme... More of a sense 3.0 skin. I have never done a theme and figured starting with a sense skin would be easier. If anyone has any tips/advice for a beginner at sense skins, please feel free to share.

Here is what I've found so far that "might" help as a guide...
zone23 said:
1.) Install APKTOOL there are plenty of sites on how to do this so I’m not going to get into it.
2.) Decompile the base APK “apktool d Base.Theme.v1.apk”
3.) Open AndroidManifest.xml with NOTEPAD ++ do not, DO NOT use windows note pad for this
4.) At the end of Line #2 change EVOZoneBlue to whatever you want to call your skin save that and close it
5.) Got to /assets/ rename EVOZoneBlue to whatever you change it to in #4 only the last part. You will notice that my file name is only EVOZoneBlue its not com.htc.skin.EVOZoneBlue
6.) Now go to /res/values open “strings.xml” with NOTEPAD++ edit Line #4 to the name of your Skin save and close.
7.) Adjust/replace PNG files as you wish in /res/drawable-hdpi & drawable-land-hdpi
8.) Now recompile what you have “apktool b base.theme.v1” it should compile
9.) Open m10 Editor open your APK /apktool/base.theme.v1/dist/
10.) Edit m10s files I generally open the entire folder in explorer view. Once an icon appears on the right, right click it and open in explorer view. It’s a lot easier than picking the files one at a time. Make sure you’ve got everything because you won’t want to open this back up unless it’s absolutely necessary.
11.) Save m10
12.) To sign APKs I generally used APK Manager
13.) Copy your APK to / place-apk-here-to-batch-optimize
14.) Run Script type 16
15.) Place your APK in /place-apk-here-to-batch-optimize
16.) Run Script type 15
17.) Copy APK to device and install

I am not a good themer, but I am learning. The key to the 3.0 skins from what I can tell is decompiling the m10 files which I do not think apktool does. Look at this thread here. I have changed the lockscreen ring and some of the colors on the rosie using this so far, but I got overcome by events this week. Look at it and let me know I will be working a little this weekend and more during the week on putting together what I find. I am horrible at photoshop and other tools, but I guess I have to learn sometime.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=107862
Edit: I guess APK tool does do m10, but try this one to they both work. I use apk tool for my OG Evo for messing with apps and works great.
so i'm trying to learn how to theme but i can only really get a hang of theming stuff like the framework-res.apk and easy stuff like that. some of the apps (like the calculator and what-not) have their stuff all in a xml file. how the heck do it edit that? i'm on a mac fyi..... i'm used to just replacing .png files. this seems to be a bit more complicated than i may be able to even do. any help would be much appreciated. thanks!
Miui theme developers are very helpful u might wana try posting there.

I've been coding for Android for awhile now, but just with a basic UI. I'm coding an app for a friend in which I simply retrieve his tweets, and Facebook statuses, and I wanted to have a sleek UI for it. I know that since every phone runs ICS, which means they won't get the Holo theme(<3). I wanted to know if anyone could lead me in the right direction, or even help me code the app. Are there templates that I can use, or what? lol. Thanks!

hi.
could you please post it here? i am also looking for some nice ui component.
thanks a lot!
My best advise would be not to follow what most app developers do. Use the built in framework for most of your layout needs. You program will run faster and you will get a better over all UI no matter what version they are using. To many people fill their apps with color coding and images that are not needed. You an jack right into the base framework files for most of what you will need
first screen shot is mine i have GS2 ginger bread 2.3.3 i just want to know how can i change my status bar icon (battery.clock,wifi,signal) in any ways other then which come when i bought i am new so please help like screen shot which i capture on this forum help
I'm not going to hold your hand nor is anyone else on this forum, but you need to learn to read and search. The image icons you're seeking to change/modify are stored in SystemUI.apk.
Good luck.
Or can I atleast reduce the space between them.(clock battery signal wifi) help..help..

Listen man, I understand you're new here but it'd help if you gave out more information about the firmware you're using in order to better enable people help you out. You spewing out help, help, help, doesn't help out anyone. Please be more informative and others here will be able to better assist you in your endeavors.
Since I'm bored, pull your systemui.apk and I'll take a look at it.
