How to get these kind of homescreens??
http://blog.mycolorscreen.com/post/14806494249/10-best-homescreens-of-2011

When you click on one and hover your mouse on the screen you can see what widgets were used.
Or try reading the description and comments.

yeah i also saw that,but i thought it was related to something like programming like editing the source codes of launchers etc

What you are seeing are clever uses of wallpapers and custom icons. There is no hacking involved or what so ever.
If you wish to learn more about themes please go to the XDA Themes development thread and check out the stickies.

Battery icon

Is there a way to use metamorph or ninjamorph to change the battery icon in the notification bar. I've done it before but that was a while ago.

A simple search of this board will get your answer.

for crying out loud its still the theme forum, leave him alone....lighten up on each other honestly, friggen search police
OK so I put it on the wrong forum oops. There are a lot of people with questions on this forum. I thought it would be better answered if it were on this forum since I'm asking about something that can only be done on a rooted phone. I did do some searching but did not find much not saying that there isn't anything just didn't find it.

youre fine, dont let wannabe searchsearchsearch mods get to you, people do ask questions all the time in EVERY section, and your question is perfectly relevant to theming. Q&A forum is more of a safe secondary option for people who dont know where to post
--------------------------------------
you may be able to actually change the .png through ninja morph but you wont be able to apply it. Ninja morph is a good concept, but until there is the option to sign through it, realistically it creates more steps than it eliminates.
With that said you can alter a Metamorph theme (thats what i do), just go to your theme that you use in /sdcard/Android Themes, and find the image/s that you want to edit, then just reapply the theme.
I'm sorry to ask you this but I'm a big time noob when it comes to this stuff. So it it easier to go that way or just flash it?

depends. if something you like is already in flashable format, and its compatible with your firmware/ROM, that would obviously be the best way to go. But if you have decent image editing software (GIMP), its not all that hard to access your sdcard from your pc and just edit a few .png files within a theme and then reapply the theme. Sometimes it can be a hassle to figure exactly which image you are supposed to edit to get the result youre looking for.
I'm looking at the battery icons in a thread just a few down from this one. Those I think a flashable. I'm running on the stock rom.

You can find about 7 different battery icons using the gst app. All you do its download the icon you want and put it on the root of your sd card. Then use rom manager to boot into clockwork mod recovery and select the apply zip from sd option. The battery icon will show up on there.just click it and that's it.pretty easy huh

Can I still do that on my modified notification bar. I'm using the clear with the modified icons that I got from one of the threads on this forum.

TopShelf, I think you're way out of line here. The theming forum is obviously not the best place to ask questions about theming. People like "creator" shouldn't have to be bothered to click on threads that they don't have the desire, nor time to answer. Instead, creator and other busy people need to only see threads that they enjoy reading, and all questions pertaining to theming should never be asked in the theme forum.
His valuable time cannot be spent answering questions to threads he clicked on and read, and only in the severe ignorance of the OP can he be bothered to reply, and of course, only reply with a full paragraph explaining the ignorance of the OP.
I'll thank you, Top Shelf, to remember the forum etiquette in the future. If you're going to utilize the theming forum, then please remember to berate and belittle anyone that also utilizes it for questions pertaining to theming.

How to change the lockscreen on a Thunderbolt?

OK been looking for awhile now and just cant find any real info for changing the background,and icons in the lockscreen especially for the newer GB roms.
I've got the sence lockscreen now and like the way it performs so all I'm wanting to do is change the wallpaper and icons.
Thunderbolt on das bamf gingeremix 2.0 beta 5
What a stupid name for a ROM
From the home screen. Menu,personalize, locksreen, turn to one, click settings, then click on one of the 4 icons to change.
Don't forget to click the thanks button.

If you have it set to display wallpaper on lock screen, just change your regular wallpaper and it will change your lock screen wallpaper as well.
Cool rom bro, could I see some screenshots and a changelog?
No I'm not asking about how to use my phone..I do know how to change it to the others that came on the phone...BTW ADW dont let me get to personalize anymore anyway.
sparta31...would you like some cheese with that?
anothen...yes especially when we gather...not much unlike kiss fans in the 70s
g00s3y...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1095280
OK maybe I need to be a little more clear about my questions...
how about somebody telling me where the file for the lock screen is located and what I have to do to change the background and icons once I'm in the file.
I'm trying to make my wallpaper differnt from whats on the phone and would like all the icons to match
Don't be any more clear. Just put it in the right section. Q and A!

Woah, slow down there son. No need to lump us old school Kiss Army in with the ICP juggalo tomfoolery. Very few FANS wore the makeup ... just the band.
By the way ... have you figured out magnets yet?
I may be way out of the loop but aren't the ICP tools referred to as juggaho's?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I didn't write this thread for a debate on what juggalos do or don't do...I just want to know if the .apk for the lockscreen can be changed and if so how.
I didn't bust into your threads asking about your way of life,I would expect the same.
Just so you know, they're making fun of you because you didn't read the rules, and now you're just blatantly disrespecting those telling you that you're not following them by ignoring what they've told you to do. You're disrespecting everyone on this forum and demanding respect in return? You see the problem?
Thrown by Zeus himself
Got to agree ninja. I too am a Juggalo, love the pc btw, but you would friendly get a answer faster if you moved the thread to the general or Q&A section.
That being said... These self loving pricks in this forum can suck a bag of dicks. If you would just answer the question the thread would die. Or if you were just more polite about it I am sure he would have moved the post. But alas you decided to degrade and mock this guy because of the music he likes. You are all just so happy to bully someone because it is not you. Just stick to the forum and have your comments relate to android issues and leave the personal stuff out.
2 whoops and I am out like Casey Anthony.

This looks neat

Saw a few of these setups in the "Post your Setup" section.
Idk if the rings are movable or just eye candy, but just thought id like to share.
I assume we need s-off for this.
that looks like some serious work. and doesn't look like to me that u need s off for that. i see themes with different lockscreens and nice widgetlocker setups all over the forums.
thats real nice and clean though

There is a Widgetlocker thread in the forums somewhere. There is a guy (sorry, can't remember his name) that is making them. No root required, just need Widgetlocker.

Yes. But I just noticed it's NightOwl. He's the one that made the lock screen I was talking about. I'm sure it's his work. The original lock screen he made is at the link below. You'll have to search for the other mod.

Your searching abilities must be inferior.
Search for cm7 themes in the Android Market, and you should find an app called Theme Chooser Themes by JRummy16.
It has a compilation of all themes ever posted to the xda forums (and even beyond) and its catalogue is frequently updated.
Or, you know, you could just... make one for yourself instead of demanding from people?
This post was sent from hell.
yea man i understand
i have ics so i have theme chooser
and i will make one but i have exams for now
so i cant for now
but i will later
i know it is weird thing to ask but for now i am lazy
and i wanted a link or direction to flow
Here; http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/17567-list-cm7-theme-chooser-themes/
Go wild.
ok i found this site too
but thanks and i found a miui themes out of which i liked but for some reason it wont download
and some are only there for froyo
but thanks for the time tho

[Req] ICS keyboard with Emoji support, along with a messaging app [emoji support]

Title really says it all. It would be really nice, especially for the devs, but i really do not want to use a seperate keyboard and messaging app for Emoji.
Thanks in advance.

I think it'd be better if you requested it somewhere around here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=530
so that all android devs see it and some people support your idea.
Posting it in Vibrant section won't get it too far.
