Theming requires the ROM to be deodexed.
Also, this should've been posted in Q&A.
Actually I used to use gingeritis on my old thunderbolt and that thing was themed and odexed. So it is possible just takes more time.

Why though? It's only faster on the first boot not at any other time.
I'm not trying to stop you from creating another ROM though so please don't get me wrong.

Speed wise yes but I have noticed that odexed Roms are a little more stable than deodexed and I want to give it a shot.

Good reason. I'll wait to see what you come up with.
I would start with the stock RUU (it's odexed) and then remove the stuff that you don't want. Then learn how to make any of the modifications that you want to do.

this is actually a myth, themeing can be done on odexed ROM, unless it needs smali editing which only about 10% themeing does i'd say . IMO
---------- Post added at 07:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:40 PM ----------
the best way for odexed rom is to make it in the android kitchen the same way the roms we now have but don't odex, which saves a lot of time as deodexing was the main issue when we first got to romming
then when u need to edit smali, u deodex the files needed, then re-odex them, rather than deodexing an entire ROM, then re-odexing the entire ROM back..
IMO again
Whatever the case may be, would you like for me to make an odexed ROM for you to use?

So ive been checking the theme/app section just about everyday hoping that someone would make a flashable zip for these mods and there looks like there hasn't been progress or advances in trying to. Now i know there are other threads asking the same for these mods but there hasnt been much activity in them.most threads where answered with apps so basically what im asking is, is there a dev that is willing to work up mods for a accurate battery percentage in notification bar as well as setting toggles in pull down.Thanks

Yeah, man sorry I haven't made much progress with the 1% mod there, I'm try to read the Atrix forums for help and researching, but haven't had a lot of time. Maybe you can assist?
Back when I had the HTC Hero I had done a %battery mod for it. It was pretty easy afaik but I don't remember how to do it... I could try and look into it though

I really appreciate the help here. Just to start, I went through UOT to grab a file that I could zip. I was thinking of decompiling the framework apk's and modding the stats_sys_battery.xml file, recompiling, and rezipping it up and then flashing that. I wasn't sure if that was going to work, but I'm a noob, so it was my first crack at it.
Best,

I think the stats_sys_battery.xml file sounds about right. I know you need to use baksmali and smali to edit them though. I'm in class right now but I'll look at it a little later.

ok guys here is your accurate battery mod. Please test it out and let me know if it works. I am not sure if the zip will flash correctly on your phone but if not just take the files out and push them and set permissions. I do not own a photon so I cannot test this out.
First boot will take longer than normal.

I haven't had much time recently and heading out to meet some friends shortly but wanted to give people something to think about. I was considering how I could swing getting an Eris over to riemer in the Netherlands so he could work on the kernel with it in hand. Either finding someone here with an "extra" that they are willing to sell or from somewhere like eBay. I know it would help him a lot to actually have one if he does help us out and he's much more capable than I in terms of quick progress

FYI, There has already been positive progress and a working .35 Kernel along with ICS. I've been using his ROM as my daily for 2-3 weeks now, and using Beta 2 Test 3 (available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25604607&postcount=328) since it came out and fairly happy and excited about it.
Will this kernel work on other Gingerbread ROMs? For example, CM7.2?

Don't know, but I doubt there would be any harm (disclaimer!) in making a nandroid and trying it. What it takes to do that, though, I don't know without researching. Best to ask MongooseHelix in his ROM thread, though. He may already know the answer.

Cool, I'll let you know here if someone else closes the deal first.
Tried both modded battery meters available in here, both variations of one of them to boot. Nothing worked. (Phone was broken by one of them with persistent force closing, the other one broke the notification bar altogether.
I'm assuming the image files for the battery meter all have the same location within the framework from one rom to the next, so, why don't we yet have a good themed, flashable battery meter (with percentage of course) for deodexed roms? Would anyone be up to contributing one?

It will teach you the things you need to know to begin to LEARN to theme any rom.
The status bar is in SytemUI - after that you need to learn and experiment. Every ROM is different, sometime the files are in different diretories.
And on top of that each time the dev releases a new version you have to extract the .apk and re-theme it in case they made some changes.
It's a good starting point,
REMEMBER TO ALWAYS make a backup in recovery before you flash your themed apps, cuz even though I think I know what I'm doing, I've bootlooped them more than once!!!!
Another great tool is software called beyond compare.
Break apart the apks, put stock beside a molded stock one and see what was changed. You'll learn a good bit doing that
