Seriously? You had to open a whole new thread for this?
And in the wrong section too...
The ZIPs are all out there, you can easily extract from them whatever you want yourself.

Give a man a fish vs. teach a man to fish. That's what I go with pretty much all the time, you could call it my golden rule. Sorry if sometimes it comes across as rude but sometimes I do feel like it's necessary. I was just trying to point out it's pretty easy to extract a single picture yourself, definitely not worth opening a new thread.
OT:
I have tried to extract but i was not able to do it, if so i won't write... when i open the zip of the rom there is only *.img files that i can't open...
If you can explain how i think it could be usefull to somebody else a part me

I used to do exactly that, but all it did was start flaming and problems, not to mention complaints to mods. Might find it better to chill and help a wee bit more. Took me a long time to realise most people really are struggling, and a wee bit of help goes a long way. Don't get me wrong, I can still be a major ass at times, especially when the gene pool dictates it needs to be that way.
If someone really wish to help then should make short guide or link to it. Write to use search is just useless. Even more than original post.
If someone doesn't know, teach him.

Noob here. Not really understanding how to root my phone. I simply want to root it and then install the very best and stable FROYO software. I don't need a ROM as I like Touchwiz (I know, don't kill me).
Can someone, pls provide detailed chronological ordered instructions on how to ROOT, what I NEED after I root and then install FROYO.
Thank you

Did you read the General Sticky? I tried very hard to make that as clear as possible. Just download the file, rename it, put it not in a folder in sdcard/ and then go to stock recovery (with your phone off, press and hold both volume keys, press and hold power, release power at the Vibrant screen while still holding both volume keys) then click on apply update, reboot phone and you are rooted.

He sure did make it easy in the sticky... Search, read, and learn.
If finding the search button is hard... I know it can be, since it is at the top right of every page on this forum, please click the large RED text in my sig... And any question you have will be answered for you, automagically!

WOW! Such sarcasm. I don't really think that was necessary. And YES..... I did read the sticky.
sarcasm??? WTF, I was genuinely trying to help man.... if the sticky was not enough for you, you probably don't need to be rooting your phone because it doesn't get much simpler. Good luck, if you want help from others, try and not burn bridges. I tried.

Listen, i was in your position not too long ago, trust me , email thegreat520. I was a straight noob and now know a lot of **** and flash custom roms and do **** to my phone all the time flawlessly and he taught me it all, email him dude.
Can you post what he sent you? I've always been extremely curious why he says to email him rather than post the answers for EVERYONE.

He was just very patient and answered all my questions, and he's a very trustworthy guy. I bricked my phone about a month ago and have linux and couldn't use odin plus i was still a noob so seeing as my options were buy a new phone or say **** it and send it to him i sent my phone to him and he fixed it, added froyo and shipped it back. Plus he taught me a lot now i kno how to do a LOT now and no longer consider myself a "noob".
Thegreat520 should be a mod on here as he is by far the most helpful person i've ever come across online.
Interesting, so how much did he charge?

LOL I Thought the EXACT Same thing, because that sounds very fishy. Considering the time it took to ship there and back... like a week to 12 days at the very least? He must of had access to a STABLE version of Froyo before everyone else here on the board.
Yeah, to be clear I'm not trying to say anything negative. People helping people is ALWAYS a goo thing.
Ok guys so with a ton of reading and researching here's a little thing I was trying to figure out for awhile and finally did it so Im going to share a little guide. Now non of this is mine, I just follow instructions well
With all the Gingerbread talk/themes I haven't seen anyone here theme the stock MT4G Swype. I'm on CM7 Nightlies but I believe it should also work with stock MT4G sense since I pulled it from there.
Now before we begin I take no responsibility if this bricks your phone or make it burst in flames. This guide does need a know how to adb and have jdk and jre installed properly to sign the apk.
First we need the stock swype:
-I followed this guide from Marine6680
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=959192&highlight=swype
Now we need the Gingerbread Theme for Swype:
-I got the files from Marurban
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=930306
-The file we need is the 2.6 v0.3 WVGA without Mic
Marurban's guide was kinda confusing and that was where I was having a little trouble. So then I found stone_ship's guide and helped me a lot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=955721
I simply copied just all the keyboard pngs and left glow and wcw png stock. I still need to learn how to change the font color on the popup
After you have signed your themed swype.apk use Marine6680's guide to install it back to your phone. If your having trouble with this I will try with the best of my ability to help but no promises Enjoy!
Also Please thank Marine6600, Marurban and stone_ship for their guides to make this possible.
FYI, you do relize that if you are just replacing the images as you did, that it can be done in about 10 seconds using 7zip. You dont need to resign the zip, no Apk Manager or anything like that. And this isnt really a "Guide" but just a post with links to guides from other people. If you would like a "Guide on image replacement using 7zip" I will be happy to help.

Did you even read the OP? It clearly says he didn't do anything as he took it from other peoples stuff, it even has name of the people on it. I guess he just found it confusing from original doc so he wrote his own but IDK why he posted here.

No I didnt read the OP, I just posted blindly. WTF kind of stupid comment is that?
When someone makes a thread with "Guide Theme" in the title, I kinda EXPECT A GUIDE. Not links to guides. Second I am in no way trying to flame this guy (like you tried to do to me) but let him know that there is much easier ways to achieve what he has done. I also even offered to help him make a simple GUIDE for doing this.
And whats up with your post? And I quote:

My point with that is it is easy to pick apart someones post huh.
I mean, I dont even know why you posted in this thread. Your comment added absolutly no help to the thread and only tried to flame me.
I will now end this rant before I say something I shouldnt
And your comment added so much help, maybe you should write another EZ guide for it. No one flamed you as you simply try to bash the guy without clearly comprehending what he did. No one cares what you expected thats like you claiming to write guides from using other peoples and not giving them credit for it.
Whoa... Sorry for this guys all I wanted to do was share what I found out myself cause I wanted to theme my swype to gingerbread and didn't know how. So instead of asking I just read up and searched and didn't come up with anything simple. My bad for thinking it might help people.
Mod can you lock or delete this please

Don't worry about it the guy is a troll and thief its just funny as he steal other peoples stuff then claim he writes them but when you did something and even properly named people where you got it from he try to bash you. As I said "I guess he just found it confusing from original doc so he wrote his own but IDK why he posted here." You don't need to apologize you did what you thought would help others in good intention, that is what matters regardless of the trolling from hypocrites. We are here to help others.
TrueBlue_Drew said:
First let me apologize for your mucking up your thread. My original post was only meant to offer help to you and somehow it has turned into this.
There is no reason to lock or delete this thread, you did nothing wrong. As a matter of fact you did a great job of researching and figuring out how to do what you wanted to do. I was only offering help to make this more of a guide for what you did and help show you a easier way of achieving it, so you could in turn help people easier. Setting up APK manager and the other things you metioned can be time consuming, especially if you aren't familiar with how to do it.

No problem lets just start a new and please tell me how an easier way can be done. cause all the things I've read about theming swype was thru either metamorph (I'm still reading up on how to make one) and thru Ninjamorph which force closes on my swype. I never ran into 7zip like you mentioned. I usually just read and try to figure things out myself so please do explain
Im always up to new challenges and now knowing how apk manager sorta works I can deep dive on what I might or might not be capable of doing. its really an interesting program
It'd be nice to have something like this for the current beta version. I can't give up my voice-input button. No way.

Well you can still do it, just use the guide and download Marurban's gingerbread theme with the mic on it.
Seems like I missed the party...any how...what's the easiest way to get gingerbread Swype? I don't have my stock mt4g Swype anymore ...hehe!
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
I'd like to stay with the stock ICS leak (it works really great on my Amaze), and want to add init.d support, because I want to install V6 Supercharger as well, to make settings stick after reboot. Thanks to Mike1986, I know how to do so on Gingerbread - by adding /system/xbin/busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d to the init.post_boot.sh and creating a system/etc/init.d folder - but now on ICS in /etc instead of init.post_boot.sh there is a init.qcom.post_boot.sh file which I dont know if it's the same thing, and also whether the aforementioned method would work here as well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, tnx!
Locked in 3......2.............
Nice help, buddy
Its because this should be in the q&a thread, but Mike might look in here and be able to help again.. Try to pm him.
Over 10000!!! You bet I am.
Yep, posted it here exactly because devs rarely look at the q&a section. This thing is really useful to know, not just for me...

However, it's an exercise in futility. Most people here don't want the logical/simple that requires a bit of work on their part. They want the complex/convoluted that requires effort on the part of everyone but them :-/

I'm not as experienced in android as you are mate. I was asking if theoretically its possible. If you don't have anything useful to say regarding my question, please move along. And keep your wit to yourself.
1) I did say something 'useful' which was proportionate to the question.
2) No.
Thanks for playing.
Edit to add - Again, think for a moment. Different phone. Will require different firmware/framework; I.E SGS2 roms will not run on the SGS3, of course the camera apk for the S3 won't work on the S2. Do you see anyone on here running the camera apk from the Nexus on their S2 ?
As we've said, a few moments of logical thinking could have negated the need for this pointless thread.

See, now was that too hard? Thanks for explaining. I've learnt a thing or two from you.
I read about porting ROMs and was under the impression that the same applies for .apk
This wasn't pointless. At least for me.
No, it wasn't hard. And that's exactly the point several people have tried to illustrate for you, but it has gone way over your head. You just don't get it.
Now then, that's it for me. You're beginning to drag me down to your level & I know I've got no chance Vs your experience (some people reading this will understand where I'm coming from).
