You just want to have the theme in the OS, or have the theme installed after set up? If you just want to have the theme, then just have it in Storage card, they are all the same!

In the os as the original theme

You probably just want to add a line in your preconfig.txt (presuming your Hermes runs preconfig) such as " EXEC:\Windows\cusTSK.exe \Windows\FCW_theme.tsk " for example as that's probably the easiest way.

Appreciate your help,

I had this just happen when flashing back to a rom I normally use. I just had to hard reset the phone. Something just becomes corrupt and applying any themes didn’t take. Worked fine after the HR, but had reinstall all the apps again…

Will the 1.42 RC33 Theme work on Haykuro's Sapphire 5.0G build?

I modded a 1.42 Theme from BUUF where I changed the Clock, some Icons and modded the boot screen.
Does anyone know if these 1.42 Themes can be used on Haykuro's Sapphire 5.0G build, and If so Do I need to remove all the Ringtones/Notifications again?
They won't work.
Ask them to write a 5.0G version.

If you have a slight knowledge of how Themes work you can easily port them over.

Restore original JF ADP 1.5 theme - Template for theme makers.

I have thrown together a quick update file that can be used to either restore the stock 1.5 ADP theme (JF), or to build themes. This will save people from having to download the 40MB full update.
JF ADP 1.5 Theme Template - Rapidshare
I also uploaded it to MediaFire (don't think they have a max amount of downloads).
JF ADP 1.5 Theme Template - MediaFire
I don't think there will be any issues with this file, but let me know if there are.
edit - updated with permanent RapidShare link - thanks tehseano!
Hey I have a zip folder w meta inf and system folders..
All of the other files besides apps n framework folders and their respective .apks have been removed
If I sign it is that all I need or all u did?
Also a properly formatted update-script. But, yeah that's all I did.
I can upload a permanent rapidshare link. Give me a few minutes.
EDIT: Here you all go
JFv1.5 ADP1.5 Theme Template - Rapidshare
Thanks! I can now port my customized theme to Cupcake!
This is just so you can go back to the original theme if you don't like a theme you downloaded right? and so you don't have to reflash the jf 1.5.
Am i correct? Thanks

That or so you can build a theme for distribution that is much smaller (11MB vs 40MB) for distribution.
i think this should actually be a sticky, so themers start using this instead of full roms.
daveid - you are amazing! =) I just ported my Megaman theme from Haykuro to JF in less than 2 minutes lol. I wish someone would develop a theme template for Haykuro's build. I'll continue to use his build and especially continue to build themes using Haykuro's version (even though it's apparently more time consuming when compared to using this theme template) because there seem to be far more JF themes than there are Haykuro themes at the moment.
thanks for this.
do i only have to replace the app icon (which is it within the apk files) and zip it again? then rename du update.zip and flash it?
or is there anything else?
additionally, how to rename apps not within this pack?
Exactly what i am looking for. thanks!
how bout ADP1.5Hr3 default? or is it the same?
I was waiting for this since i'm working on porting for JF builds now and the dudes builds.
If these builds stick for a while i have big plans for some new stuff.

There might be a way to do that but I'm yet to see it..do you mean like the Android smilies?
And the custom themes, they work...just follow the devs instructions to the dot
Yea I am talking about the smilies like the android. Wife uses them a lot.

[Q] UOT Kitchen - System.apk/Framework.apk

So, I forgot to backup my system & framework apk's before I uploaded them into the kitchen and made a new theme. *I know, shame on me*.
Is there a default/stock for those or are they created based of individual phone information?
What i'm asking is, do I need to re-install the rom to get those back or can I just pull them from above said stock apk's?
Android: 2.3.5
Rom:Cm7(08012011)
Any help would be greatly apprecaited!!!
Thanks-

i'm confused. are you saying you dont like your theme and want to go back to stock or you want you want to update to the next nightly but dont want to do the kitchen every time?
I'm not reaaal familiar with the kitchen stuff, I know more than enough to get myself in trouble (changing radio's, roms, etc) but haven't completely grasped the themes yet.
It SEEMS like a couple of things are not changing even if I create a completely new theme (The battery icon, the lockscreen buttons and something else I forget)
My thinking is, there's a generic theme(s) for the rom and when you create a get a new one, it updates certain aspects of it.
If I create a new theme in kitchen and only change the battery, wouldn't all of the other settings revert to the "default" theme?
On a completely different note-
What's the difference between ADW themes and Themechoose themes?

Ah. ok. so what ever you change in the kitchen it will change in the apk. it wont touch the rest of the apk. its kinda like an online apktool. it unpackages it changes the png's you want and then packages it up again using the resources from the apk you submitted. ADW themes are for the ADW launcher so it only themes the home screens. but Themechooser themes the whole phone, or as much as the developer of themechooser allowed it to do.
Great! Thanks
