First and foremost, this would not have originally been possible without all the hard work zimphishmonger and the3dman13 did to bring fighspit's original battery mod to the vibrant, please see the original thread here, and give them some thanks! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756441
I'm also borrowing zimphishmonger's warning, as i think it works to keep warning messages standard across all these battery mod threads.
WARNING: ALWAYS make a nandroid backup prior to installing any modification, including this one. You are making the decision to install this on your own, and I am not responsible for anything nuclear that may happen to your device.
UPDATE.. I lost count (10/5/2010)
So I dig Eugene's Frankin-twiz rom's, but I still want to keep my accurate battery mod, and well, I think his glossy-black skin is ugly. I also think the stock vibrant touchwiz skin is ugly (for the love of all that's holy samsung, why did you decide the vibrant would be the ONLY galaxy s phone to get your stupid glossy version of touchwiz?!)
So, I ported my battery mod to frankin-twiz and at the same time, ripped all the matte (non glossy) drawable's from the I9000 touchwiz skin, and added in my colored status/signal, mms, calendar, music player, and gmail icons, restored the black background for the power control widget, added HTC's weather icons to GenieWidget.apk, changed to the stock I9000 bootup and shutdown animation and sounds, and of course, I probably missed something else too, lol. You can see some (semi-outdated) screenshots here: http://picasaweb.google.com/113127051130934911253/AndroidStuff?feat=directlink
Also, if you find yourself being a typography nerd like me, you can use this zip to switch the default system font to Comfortaa I take NO CREDIT WHATSOEVER for making the original font, or the android port, I only re-packaged the files into a Clockwork-mod zip file for the vibrant. This will also change the lockscreen clock font to comfortaa, but ONLY if using the default android lockscreen.
Comfortaa system fonts: http://www.4shared.com/file/hYu1TYHL/Comfortaa_system_fonts_ONLY.html
New for ftwiz_final: I'm including an extra version with the samsung calendar AND the AOSP mms app, per Eugene's thread, since it resolves issues with being unable to send sms/mms messages. I'm also including the newest version of my battery mod (this is the version I personally like best and use daily), based on the upright/vertical icons, but with colored borders/outline, and a smoother charging animation (thanks to untermensch!) This can be applied on its own, after you flash either of the other versions. If flashed without flashing one of the other versions first, it DOES NOT contain the gmail/calendar/mms/music player icons, or the startup & shutdown animations and sounds. You can see a screenshot added to the post below too.
Download links here, ftwiz_final ONLY:
Removed, sorry, too many people use other people's work without giving credit, and it leads to way too many headaches, he-said/she-said, ignorance, etc.
Everything should flash via clockwork recovery fine, place the zip on the root of your INTERNAL /sdcard directory, reboot into clockwork, I recommend wiping the cache & dalvik-cache, then install zip from sdcard, locate the specific zip, reboot.
Enjoy, cheers everyone, and if you come in here posting bugs/whining for help without first making sure you cleared your cache and dalvik-cache, then I'm just going to ignore you,
Looks Great!!!
Thanks alot works well on my phone
i love it! not a big fan of the round battery icon, so this is great
Great work! Glad to see everyone is making their own customized battery images. We are gonna have a battery collection soon.
just a quick update to the OP with a new version with some colored/themed status icons.
cheers

I did, switched from the green circle. The battery indicator works fine.
I used the circle one but saw this with the other colored icons and thought they were cool. Seems that they don't quite work properly. Stock the GPS indicator shows in the notification bar any time it's on. With the new icons from the op the indicator is only on if I'm in an app that is using the GPS. I'm going to flash back to stock then to the battery only mod (i figure I need to to switch the other icons?)

Hi,
Thanks for trying it out. I have no idea how there might be issues since this is literally just img replacement from the segmented green circular battery mod, so however icons should work with that mod, is how they should work with this mod.
Maybe run a fix permissions from rom manager and see if that helps?
Also, my GPS icon has never worked like you described, even stock, (in other words, mine isn't always visible in notification bar, even when not in an app actively using gps, its displayed only when using an app that needs GPS, and disappeared when exiting the app.)
If you want to try and modify your own framework-res.apk with these files, I may upload just my png images once I'm done replacing/coloring all the icons I feel like modifying.
Thanks again for trying it out though, cheers
Lastly, I got bored and colored the wifi icons, cell-signal icons, and vibration indicator icon, I'll post the framework-res.apk in the first post, but won't package a new update.zip until I decide I'm done modifying icons, lol.

Excellent work! I like the new colored signal icons. Consider possibly creating a metamorph of it, as they are very easy to update.

Thanks for the help in getting everyone started with the battery mod, now I just need to decide when enough is enough for theming icons, lol.
Anyway, I'm about to head to bed, but I'm attaching a zip with the signal icons I modded, so if anyone wants to make a metamorph, go ahead, just please give a link back to this thread when/if you post.

So I went back to stock to check and you're right. I must have imagined that.
I'll be switching back to your colored icons and battery now.
And as soon as you are done changing the icons and create a zip I'll switch to those. I like the color.

Hey again,
Glad I wasn't screwing up phone's, lol.
Anyway, I'm still working on changing all the icons, can't seem to decide where to stop yet, since now I've started modifying icons for other apps, gmail, mms, google voice, trillian, etc. And of course, now that I've gone with a slightly brighter green in the other icons, I may go back and tweak the color of my battery icon to match.
Anyway, here's a screenshot of some of the icons I'm mostly finished with (though for some reason I'm not digging the alarm icon, anyone have color suggestions for it?)

Yeah...sorry about that. Anyway I hate that stupid icon to begin with so maybe something totally different? I did a GIS for alarm clock icon and there are a lot of possibilities. I think that maybe the stock one with a red square and white clock could be good.
Edit: Maybe something like this

If you don't already have it, I suggest you install Koush's Clockwork Recovery. You can install it quickly by using ROM Manager.
Once you boot into the recovery ROM, you can back up your entire phone using Nandroid (highly advised) and then you're free to experiment to your heart's content.
Now back to your question: you can save the file to your internal SD card and search for it using the 'Install from SD' (or something like that) option in the Clockwork ROM, install it and reboot.
Good luck, friend.
What's the right way to revert this? framework-res.apk restore?
Updated OP with newest mod.
I think I'm done with this for a while now, though I might zip all the png files if someone else wants to try and make this into a morph when the app gets updated.
cheers,

Hi,
Yes, restoring your backed-up framework-res.apk will restore the battery mod. If you used the newer zip that also includes the Gmail icon mod, then you'll need to restore Gmail.apk too /system/app too.

Miui Mix Theme ( Final )
Procedure to install theme
Flash using AOR 3.3. Wipe ( dalvik-cache/cache ) is not required but recommended.
Download link :
With stock statusbar : here
Additional Info
I have not checked this as i don't own a XT720. So people who try this have to inform of any issues which i can fix. If it works properly, it should look like the screenshots above.
I have removed the versions with transparent status bars as they are not working properly.
__________________________________________
Twisted Inception
The port of this theme was requested by JiroPrinz8. Kudos to the original creator of the theme, bp328i of droidforums. My job is just to port it to xt720.
First build is almost ready. There are small issues. Not all notification widget icons are themed. I will rectify it in future builds.
Procedure : Download zip file and place it in openrecovery/updates folder. Flash in AOR. Dalvik-cache/cache wipe is not required but recommended.
Download Link : here
___________________________________________
Stock Theme
Flashing this should get you back to stock look and stock features.

Flashed the theme, and there are some white on white, and the icons in settings is still TI, (flashed over TI)
Will now try flashing over stock to see if it makes any difference. Attached some pics.
**Flashed over stock, and still white on white on the notifications area, the rest seems to be ok, attached some pics to confirm.
Flash over stock and then report with screenshots.

Guess what, i forgot to add the themed apps in the first release. That's why none of the apps was themed.
This build should fix that and the white on white in notification details.
Also, is statusbar transparent?

Yup dialler is as in screenshot, sorry dumb question, which part is the statusbar..? LOL! Far as i can tell the only issue is the white on white in the notif area, i don't have the date showing that would overlap the ongoing icons, as in the OP, IIRC the date is only showing in CM, or i haven't enabled it if at all possible.. downloading 2nd release.

Overall looks great man..! Please inform me if i missed anything or you want anything checked.

Which launcher are you using. If you install adw and untick wallpaper hack from advanced settings, you will have a transparent statusbar ( the top bar where you get your date/time/data & wifi icons etc ). You can see thru the statusbar. If you have used miui earlier, you'll understand what i am talking abt.
Also is your date shown on statusbar while pulling down notifications?

Oh ok I got it now, no, I don't have the Status bar, as in the pics, the carrier name is the only one there, no status bar icons/widgets.
Nope, no date on the status bar when I pull down for notifications.
You should not see your date. That's how the theme needs to work. And you should be able to see your wallpaper thru the statusbar as shown in the picture below. Use a lighter wallpaper. You cannot make out with a dark wallpaper.
I just flashed the RC2 stock, I was on your original Twisted Inception for the first Special, and leaves the Twisted inception keyboard. It may just be a fluke since it isn't your updated Twisted Inception. No big deal cuz I like that green themed keyboard I posted to go with RC2 anyway. So now gonna try your new themes.

I get it now, sorry bout the confusion, so I checked and the status bar is NOT transparent, tried installing ADW to untick the Wallpaper Hack, didn't change anything though. Still the Status Bar is solid and is not transparent.
I don't think it's a big deal though, but if it's necessary for the theme, by all means just post a build I can test for you.

I dont know why the png's are not changing. Also i changed all network icons to miui style, but it is still green. I'll take a look later.
Ok. Found out why the statusbar is not changing. Its not the themes fault. Usually the statusbar image which is in framework-res.apk is a .9 png ( statusbar_background.9.png ). The theme has this file, but the rom uses a normal png ( statusbar_background.png ). So even if you apply the theme, the statusbar image is not being replaced.
Also found out why network bars are still green. HM has made a lot of changes not found usually in Froyo based roms.
I'll post a final build today.

That's ok guys. I am uploading 3 versions of the miui theme now.
1. Transparent status bar - no date
2. Transparent status bar - with date ( notifications images will overlap date )
3. Non Transparent stock statusbar
As soon as someone checks and lets me know that they all work as expected, i will port the other themes.
Sometimes i get fustrated with things and that's why i was a bit harsh in my comments a couple of weeks back. No hardfeelings, LM.
You know that this is my hobby and i do it because it feel good. And also for a few cups of coffee whenever i get a donation.
This thread is for a series of Metamorph files I will be releasing. To install these mods, you must have a rooted phone and a copy of metamorph. Some theme features may not be available on non cyanogen mod roms, but there should be at least partial compatibility with every ROM and most Android devices, not just atrix.
Download: Click one of the links below:
LockScreens:
- GunMetal - Simply replaces the default green and red pattern icons with grey ones.
- CyanBread LockScreen - Just like it sounds, this is a FULL FEATURED theme for the Cyanogenmod lockscreen. Replaces default white textures with beautiful cyan ones (as requested)
- Hades - A complete, red lockscreen theme for android
- Kobalt - A complete Cobalt blue lockscreen theme
- Kemical - A green lockscreen for your android.
To use these themes, you must have Metamorph app from the market. Use Metamorph to unzip zip file and then open the XML file inside. Phone will reboot and Voila! New, beautiful Lock Screen!
Please note: there is a bug with these themes that you will get a invalid theme error..just reopen metamorph and click pick existing theme and run it anyways. It will work.
Cheers!
Dont forget to press the Thanks button
This is poppin! Will u be releasing a screen transition metamorphs too? We need some new ones.
Very nice! It set my wallpaper to default though. Is this to be expected?
Would this work with stock rom?
If you can, please make a Rotary revamped buttons (unlcok, sound\mute, middle andorid icon for custom app) that suits the Cyanbread theme.
Thanks !
Installed on Homebase Chronic Blue. Worked great, but it also reset my wallpaper. No big deal though. Thanks
I'm not completely sure what it takes to make all new animations but I'll check it out. In the meantime, checkout these ones:

Yes, whenever you first apply a framework-res metamorph file, it will always reset your wallpaper to a system default one. Just set it back

I don't think space is actually the issue, i am getting the same error message, chose to apply the theme anyway and its clearly not doing anything, just stuck at 'applying framework-res.apk'
When attempting to replace the hades lockscreen zip i get the error : 'the theme you selected is invalid because the control file could be missing, or is not correctly written'.
Also running CM7, issue persists after reboot.
PS. if i could get this running, i would love a 'hades' color version of the Lense style lockscreen!

Sorry bout that problem. I made a mistake with the theme file. I'll fix and upload. In the meantime, after it gives the error message, it should extract anyway. Just restart metamorph, open, and reapply the theme.

Zips fixed to fix percent battery issue. For some reason the script is making an extra res folder in some apps, but it doesn't cause problems.
I have created a red theme that is a little different than most of the others I've seen. Instead of theming every png I could find, I chose to theme only certain aspects and stick to more of a stock look.
What I did theme:
Status bar icons (Battery, Data, Sync, Signal Bars, GPS, Airplane Mode, Silent/Vibrate, Alarm, WiFi, USB to PC)
(Clock color can be changed in Mik Tweaks)
Dialer
Keyboard
Most all selection highlights (see pic below)
Clock widgets
various other elements
What apps are being themed?
Fusion.apk
framework-res.apk
SystemUI.apk
HTCDialer.apk
PCSC.apk
HTC_IME.apk is replaced with a deodexed version
How to install:
Make a backup first!
Download the RedNole skin app HERE and install using a file explorer. Then, select the RedNole skin from the Personalize menu.
AND
Choose one of the following options:
1. Download THIS version for the theme with stock-like battery (themed red).
2. Download THIS zip for the theme with percent battery mod (red text numbers).
3. Download THIS version for theme if you already have a battery mod that you want to keep.
Flash the downloaded zip file in recovery after making a backup. Reboot and enjoy.
I recommend using Amon Ra, not tested on any other recovery.
==== Keyboard only =====
Download the RedNole Keyboard HERE and flash in recovery. I made it a deodexed app so it can be used on other 3.6 roms. That also means that the install script will delete the HTC_IME.odex file. If you want to revert back to stock, you will need to restore that file as well.

This theme dropped at the perfect time. I didn't have time on my long weekend off last week but I was thinking about finally doing a red one this weekend. This is so spot on to what I was planning that I'll be proud to rock it instead.

Now that I'm going through most the icons I use in the status bar could u add alarm,silent,airplane mode, and when GPS locks icons please. I mean like when u enter google maps and the GPS satellite shows up. Also the keyboard icon to select input method when you're typing. Other than those this theme is really sick. Thanks

If your clock widget numbers are still black, make sure you installed the skin and select it from the Personalize menu. Those numbers are in the m10 file in the skin.
For those looking for the status bar clock to be red, you can change that in the Mik Tweaks. :thumbup:
I'll add that to op.

I did and everything is like the pictures but the clock is like a matte black and the #'s are too instead of red. I wonder what happened?

If ya need any help, I'm about to have a house full of kindergarteners at my daughter's bday party. I could use an excuse to go hide in the basement for awhile. LOL

You may want to try changing the Scene to something different and back. I vaguely remember that working for a few people before when trying to a skin to work. Mine is set to the Verizon scene.
Here's a preliminary version of the keyboard. It is not complete yet, but getting close. It is a deodexed app, so the install script will delete HTC_ime.odex. Make a backup, then flash in recovery.
Edit: Link removed, completed version posted in OP.
Keyboard added to OP. Screenshot of keyboard added as well. Keyboard is a deodexed app, so it should work on other 3.6 roms.

OP link updated with new version which includes more of the status bar icons and keyboard added to the full theme zip.
Plays perfectly with my latest setup.

Working on an update to use the VillianTheme engine. That should make this work for all 3.6 global roms, not just Ineff Dues. :thumbup:
OP updated with VillainTheme engine versions. Please let me know if something doesn't work correctly.
On Hold Indefinitely
Important Info
This is the first theme I'm making for the Tab S and it is in testing.
If you download and flash please disregard missing elements in the theme.
I expect to be finished sooner than later. By the end of the weekend maybe.
I'll post any significant additions or improvements if it's not completed by Mon.
I Am Not Responsible For Any Use Of Information Or Files Posted By Myself Or By Any Other User.
Limitations and Solutions
The vr system will theme pngs, .9.pngs and some xmls [font color and some significant background elements].
I personally will theme my stock T700 NL2 rom and add apks to the theme to complete it where I cannot for any rom build because it would cause errors.
If two roms use stock apks with no mods to them you might be able to do this but I would not advise it.
Developers And Rom Users
I'll happily find the time to make this or any theme I put out for the TabS compatible with your rom. Please PM me or let me know.
Theme Design And Name Info
This is a simple theme that will add white and grey [4D5163, 343743] to touchwiz ui.
The name Version 0 is because this is the first time I've released a theme at this early of a stage, it will be relatively colorless and seemed cool enough.
EMPTYGALAXYTHEME comes from my EMPTYGALAXYROM name and I guess a way to encompass all my work. lol
I'm not big on it now but it adds to the fun.

vr theme flashable zip tested on T700. It should work on any Tab S but I'm not 100% sure about the T800.
Please Report If It Works On Your Tab S
current themed parts
System UI - toggles, icons.
Framework - menus, some background
screenshots when finished
I realize the risk you run flashing a theme without any screenshots or revert zip and I thank you for that[emoji14]
Hopefully I'll need this
Confirmed working on T800. Just needs a few fixes. Power menu is also themed to. So looks like you got that down thank you man
That's how it should look at this point. That's great thanks.
Feel free to use the zip as a map. Some things I didn't need to theme but unzip it and you'll know some of r he pngs. I'd love to know where that side bar in settings is...

Hey changed the icons in sec settings. I still don't know which is the color that blueish one is. I used your theme as a base and filled some stuff in the empty folders. I managed to get the recents bar themed too. I did some cherry picking from discreet blue. The settings now has custom icons. Also fixed the auto brightness tick box while I was at it.
Very nice. Was the recents bar in settings? I'm thinking the side bar background might be an xml.... I hope not though

If I am correct, the recents bar was an XML... I looked at discreet blue and saw that the systemui had layout folder along with an XML file. I'm still trying to figure out the top blue bar in the notification panel. The framework doesn't need changes as its perfect for me.
Here's my zip in case you want to know the things I added. https://www.dropbox.com/s/fehgzqqiu6rbmon/Theme Test 2 DUHAsianSKILLZ.zip?dl=0
I'll check that out if I get a chance. I've got to find all the backgrounds before I'll be changing icons or anything else. Looks like each rom may need it's own themed apks though cuz of values folders

Hey, If you ever get the notification part at the top themed/fixed tell me That's basically all I need since you did most of the dirty work with the framework and systemui. Of course I am theming for the T800 as you can do whatever as you have the T700
That's in one of the value folders in System UI apk. Next time I'm at my pc I'll find exactly where.
Added
It's in one of the colors.xml or drawables.

Can you send me the zip with that? Thanks!
I can later but it's in the apk. So if you're running ironrom you'll need that systemui.apk.

Hey,
I've been busy with the s4 [it needs a lot more attention than the tab] but I saw you've gotten framework themed? Have you found the side settings panel?
That's the only thing keeping me from finishing this.

I don't think I did anything with the framework. Been really busy finishing and studying for exams this week. I'm all finished now though. I tried looking for that part yesterday and I couldn't find it! And I also had trouble with the top nonfication panel. Those are basically the only things left until its finished.
What tab do you have? Lol. I'll need the System Ui from the rom. I'm thinking it's worth focusing on IronRom and your version. Once it's complete it'll be easier to bring it to the others. I have the debloated NL2. .. I might complete something for that. Idk though. You're all over helping the community so honestly I want to return the favor and get this done.

I own the Tab s wifi 10.5 (SMT800). Themes should work fine on T805 also.Here's the Apks I pulled from iron rom. https://mega.co.nz/#F!i0wCTapZ!RP83sWXTdksm4PqpxVQ8wA. Thank you for working/want to work on it for me. Its basically the two things I mentioned in the last post. Theme those then its complete. I'm trying not to work too much on it since lollipop is coming real soon. You'll see me around the community a lot since I own the device . If I owned other devices you'd see me there too. Thanks again! If you don't manage to find it or get things to work, I can try to do it.
Well, I must need to update some tools or something. I can not compile framework. And the SystemUI sent I couldn't compile. The xml that needs to be modded is in value-sw800dp-xhdpi/drawables.xml "notification_header_bg".
Now there is a good chance it's somewhere else because when I did it on my SysUI I went through all the drawables.xml and colors.xml is values folders, values-sw800dp-xhdpi, values-sw600dp, values-sw540dp, values-sw360dp-xhdpi, values-sw320dp and values.
I won't be able to do anything until I can get those compiled

Sorry for the late reply, had a big project to do. I typically use tickelmyandroid tool to compile and decompile the Apks since it uses apktool and all that. Never had a problem. Perhaps I can compile them?
That might work. I'm gonna see about tickle my android. I've never used it. Thanks for the info. I'm still doing work on the s4. I'll try to make some time for the tab.
