Ask all your Theme and App Questions HERE - Motorola Droid X2

So we can try and keep this thread clean and tidy, i have created this sticky to ask all your theme and app releated questions.

glad this was made...
ive searched high and low, to no avail. Ive sat down and searched everywhere, and for the life of me, i cannot figure out why i cant theme my miui dx2. Is there different types of themes, like v4 and something else... the ones ive found online that i actually liked were all v4, but when i used the theme app that came with miui rom, it says its not compatible... im sure im overlooking something stupid easy, but after hours of googling everything under the sun ive given up. Any info would be helpful.

how do i get the droid X2 gingerbread 2.3.5 stock keyboard on cyanogenmod10?

I need a stand alone SMS app
So, I recently decided to Root my DX2, and in the process deleted a bunch of bloatware and system apps that I don't use. Now I am looking for a replacement SMS app that does not require a stock app installed to work.
I am currently using Handcent, and ChompSMS and GoSMS both require the stock app to be installed.
Any suggestions?

Has anyone done this yet? Curious if the calendar has the same "white bar bug" that 2.1 has... I still havent figured out how to get rid of the bar. I know eugene's ROMs that had the aosp calendar had it fixed, but I am basically running a "stock" rom with my own "tweaks" and I tried his calendar and it didn't work for some reason.
I am not sure if all the CM AOSP apps will work. A lot of them are modified and could require framework-res changes that may not exist.

Themed Blur launcher-Request

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.

[Q] Deblur procedure?

Anybody knows if this works on the Atrix?

Many developers tried to deblur stock ROM on the Atrix and always ran into problems. Blur is very deeply integrated, meaning it's easier to compile an AOSP rom than deblur the official rom. And that's exactly what developers are doing at the moment.
See the CM7 thread.
On so many levels I can't wait to see the final "official" version of CM7 and compare it to the stock...
The biggest problem with Blur is that it is all the way down into the framework and if you start removing stuff, some of the "markers" will be broken. AOSP is the best way to deBlur but until then you can always install a semi deblurred custom ROM and freeze what you don't need. That's what I've done and in day to day tasks it feels like an AOSP ROM (sorta). Unless you drill down into settings, you wouldn't know my phone was running Blur at all.
oh... interesting. I guess I'll wait for CM7

[Q] CM7 - Stock Gingerbread Launcher

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.

[Q] Whats the best themes for eclipse 1.2 rc3?

I seen someone running eclipse and he had a bunch of red going on. Also his battery and 3g was red, wondering how I could do this. Also wanted to know if a theme is 2.3.4 you can flash that on any 2.3.4 roms? What's the best place to find these type of zips. I seen a blazing red theme but it didn't look like it changed the battery n 3g . Any suggestions help. Thanks in advance guys. !
The only theme I've seen is the blazing red theme like you mentioned, he keeps working on it. Themes I think are ususaly specific to the ROM, but I'm not sure. The blazing red theme is Eclipse 1.0 with the theme in one zip, so if you already have eclipse 1.0 running, you don't need to wipe the big 3, but if you gave another ROM running, then you do, and you will be switched to Eclipse. Its a great theme. I believe some one is working on a theme for Molten too. I'm in the process of learning how to theme, but it will take a while before I put something out haha

Eclipse 1.2RC3 has a custom launcher, so, without someone specifically customizing that launcher you can't get a theme for it aside from those under development. You could always change your launcher.
Kevin is working to bring his blazing red theme to newest eclipse. Shouldn't be to long of a wait. I am excited . I can't wait to have the red theme on this phone finally
Why is everyone always so obsessed with having a red theme on their android device? Personally I think they're ugly, no offense!
It's all personal preference. I personally like we'll done red themes, and any futuristic neon type theming.
As far as themes for eclipse, until Kevin releases the red theme you could try out different launchers. I've used several and they all have their perks. I used ADWLauncher in the previous version of eclipse, but I'm really liking how good 1.2 looks unthemed.

The more options, the more people will enjoy the ROM. Everyone loves to personalize it their way.
