Has anyone tried to port this to the nook color?

It looks cool and it looks like it´s easy, but I don´t have the time or the nook (my grandma has mine) to pull this off, so I was guessing someone could try this

Brobot looks like it has to be cooked into the rom. Apparently you can make something similar with hubs.
What ROM are you currently running? It is not a ROM, but a system theme for ICS and Honeycomb based ROMs (Including Stock). It will work on the Nook Color if you are running CM9. I used to have it (I use CM7 now), but just to warn you CM9 is just a beta and is very buggy with no graphic taxing games that work on it that work on CM7. I do greatly enjoy the smoothness of it and the way the theme looks with it so if you want to try it I suggest it, but be aware it may get boring after a while. Heres some Tips for before and if you choose to install it:
1. BACKUP! I cant stress this enough. Use clockworkmod recovery to do a full system backup before you flash the theme.
2.Since ADW.EX Tablet mode does not currently work on CM9 or CM7 it is goign to both look and feel a little wierd, but not too impactful. If you like the theme, but not ADW.EX being screwed up then I suggest using VTL Launcher (Both cost money).
On a last note I also have a message in to him telling him it works on the Nook Color so hopefully he can get a full support and guide specific to the Nook Color up soon. Let me know if you need to know anything else and if you want any help installing, I would be glad to help.
Could someone make a flashable
Zip for this? I'm kinda confused on how to do this.. Also, would it be possible to do this on our rooted stock?

I been noticing developers getting 2.2 apps to work on 2.1
I would like the NexusKang Live Wallpaper and its only for 2.2
How do I go about making it work also for 2.1?
If its possible is the method used the same for all 2.2 apps to make them work for 2.1?

The method to backport apps depends on the app. Some, well, most cant be back ported. Nexuskang im fairly sure cannot be and kmobs didnt want to make compatible with 2.1...was meant to replace nexusmod livewallpaper. Which is extremely similar, and honestly as close as youre going to get. If you look around on file hosting sites u might find a copy of it since its no longer in the market. Or you can buy nexus revamped. I think it supports custom backgrounds now. Idr...u can check n let me know. The free version even might possibly. I have the wallpaper background pngs identical to nexuskang (which is why i liked it soo much lol) ill upload the if you want them.
Edit: pro version supports custom backgrounds

I have a version of it on my computer.
I also have Nexus revaped, so if you upload the pngs or I take them from the NexusKang myself, and resign the apk, would it work like NexusKang?
ok so i was looking around and found on the TW website they have rom extras for Obsidian. i been looking through the fourms here and on there site and cant find the answer im looking for so maybe you guys can help me. i was thinking of trying out the 2.2 stock-ish theme they have for download but not to sure how i go about installing it. plus anyone know what it will do? like im assuming it will make it look stock? and get rid of the black theme that comes installed?, anyone try it out yet
You're talking a out the stockish framework. It will put your look back to the greyish 2.2. Dropdown. Whatever else they themed black. Works fine and doesn't affect anything other the look.

Hi All,
Since most of us have been moving to US Tmob and GB froyo, the blur launcher has been tweeked and made to work like a gem. It is really smooth and I do not find necessity to go to Launcher Pro.
Walter had previously put out a themed blur launcher like this one for his MS2 ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743372
Unfortunately it cannot be used on these froyo builds. Can anyone please theme the stock launcher please?.
I tried many times on all froyo builds to make the themed launcher work but could not do so. Walter had given a zip file to install it from CWM but that kept bricking the phone and I had to use alternate launcher to keep the phone running and flash an sbf.
Can anyone do that pleaaase ?
Im with you on this one too. I actually like the original blur launcher but it would be nice if you could actually change the assignment of the right hand button to go to text messaging or setttings etc..
Wondering where walter is these days. He can help if he sees this.

I feel like I will be and maybe deservedly so slapped for this but can somebody tell me if the "[MOD] [Universal] 02/26/11 CM7 GB Stock Launcher / CM7 GB Mod 3.0" thread also applies to the Atrix?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=933517 is what I'm talking about.
If it is determined that I should have been able to find the answer by searching, please PM me the answer and delete the thread. Many thanks in advance.
I do see "Universal" and so I feel like this is a dumb question but I don't want to mess my phone right now as I'm liking CM7 a lot and have been using for a while.
Backup and try it.
It should work

Do you want the stock Gingerbread launcher (launcher2.apk)?
First go here
Then thank the op
Then enjoy the stock Gingerbread launcher with working 3D scroll.
BTW this is the only stock Gingerbread launcher that I have found to actually work with 3D scroll and clear icons. Usually it is off set to the side and has blurry ugly icons.
Thanks a lot. I will give that a try. I guess it looks like the launcher is not so phone dependent just like most other apps?
It fit like a glove. Thanks very much.
Well I had cm10 for the better part of a week and I'm going back to cm7. Every cm10 theme I installed would say improperly compiled. Its not the deal breaker though, even if I do hate the light blue cyan color. It just wasn't quick enough for me or stable enough. I do appreciate their progress on it. I have a cwm backup of it after I updated today And used autopatcher to get v6 and tablet ui. I don't know how to fix the themes, I tried metamorphing some things like I did with cm7 and it crashed and wouldn't come back. I was using some mdpi honeycomb icons. I only ever liked the look of honeycomb not much else. I kanged a lot of different themes to make my cm7 nook theme, I posted a pic in post your screen thread.
All I can say is thank you cm team I love your work. I love cm7 its on every device I own. I will upgrade to cm10 when its ready.

I'm running the latest nightly and having the same issue. I'm new to CM10 (CM in general) so I thought it was just me..
Happy with everything else on CM 10 tho - can't really complain, using a freebie hand me down from my wife (she got the nook HD and let me 'play' with this one)
Not me ... I love CM10.1
Love CM10 on my Tablet but prefer CM7 on the Color I gave to the kids.
Check your DPI....if it is set at anything other than 213 the themes will show not properly compiled.

Thanks guys.
The schizoid rom is what I needed. I set the theme chooser and theme provider to 140 dpi in the paranoid settings and have most other apps set to 200. Themes work just fine now. My system ui apk is set to 220 dpi. Also with the new aokp option in there we can change the icons for the softkeys. I got mine honeycombed with vincie's theme. Honeycomb was sort of like Windows Vista to me, I loved the look but hated the way it worked. 4.0 and up has the greenish blue to it and I dislike it.
#rant over
I love the PAC type of roms, if only for the customization features. If your ok with using cm10 give the schizoid rom a try. I'll never go back to vanilla.
i must say thank you for the dpi fix ill try that out but does anyone know who this thing is so quiet off the headphone jack? i mean in aux in my car it has to be all the way up? is to do with the kernel or rom? its every rom tho.. should i try a cm7?
In CM7.2 Dalingrin developed an app called Nook Color Tweaks which, among other very useful and convenient things, can boost up the volume output. I think this app can't be used in CM10 because of kernel compatibility.
So your options, if this is important to you, are to search for another app that boosts audio (don't know any so I can't recommend in that matter) or go back to CM7.2 and install Nook Color Tweaks by Dalingrin (it's in the market, only works in CM7, no CM10).
