Hi Guys
For all that are unfamiliar with BUUF, it is a set of icons made for the desktops. Hopefully i recreated this experience to our beloved Android. All icons are courtesy of its creator Mattahan, the battery was supplied by Mr. Stylo and the clock was made by Rontz. Everything else by me 8) I really hope you guys enjoy this as I have put in quite a lot of time. Up to date we have 550+ icons changed in this theme and these pics really dont reflect the extensive amount of makeover it has gone through. I want to thank Stericson for giving the community and myself a great new hobby. Necromancer for his ubuntu theme which inspired me and everyone should go d/l it 8) Last but not least, Dave the illest for originally supplying the update.zip and the tools necessary to create my first release. Latest build is built from the ground up. If you use any of my icons go right ahead as long as you give me credit 8)
7/9 Sorry guys its been almost 5 months since i last updated this thing. Been so busy with work and now that I'm finally happy with a stable build out there, I decided to finally start porting this thing over. This has only been tested on Cynogen's build 3.6.5 You guys can test it on other builds at ur risk. 8) This is not a full change over as I have done previously in JF builds. I will continue to release new revisions as i have time to update the current icon set. This update may also require that you are running apps2sd as the update file is fairly large. I havent tested it on a non apps2sd build yet so someone can let me know. For now it will only be one color. as the theme gets more complete, I'll release new colors. Ok enjoy 8)
Cynogen 3.6.5

i'm diggin your theme dthadamaja! keep up the good work... i'm installing as we speak
Very Nice Bro.
this is slick....
Well there goes my theme idea...
I kid, I kid.
Nicely done.
looks great. this is going to be the first custom theme i put on my g1
WOW! I was gonna request or BUUF or a GANT theme. This looks amazing! I didn't plan on doing a custom theme but I think you just changed my mind!

I'm working on a theme using the icons from GANT (actually GACK, the OS X version of GANT since it uses PNG icons) if dthadamaja doesn't beat me to it
I'm almost done with all the icons, but I still need to add resources like the tab, status bar, battery icons, wifi, a bootscreen, etc. I'm starting from the default RC30 so it won't have any elements of the Windows 7 theme in it, but it will probably have a lot of the default stuff...
I'll make a new post when I'm done, but it will probably end up looking a lot like this since GANT and BUUF are highly similar (but GANT has a bit more gloss to it)
i like this theme alot !1.. keep up the good work
This theme is great! love the flashing.... uuummm alien?? idk what it is but cool. By the Way.... how did u get a game folder?
Installed the theme with no issues..
Some of the icons are a bit blocky (calendar, browser bookmarks, refresh, etc) though. I hope these get fixed as it moves out of beta.
Great job!

Sweet I had my TyTN II all GANT'ed up so this would make my G1 that much better! Can't wait for a release
hey how did you change the unlock pattern for the theme? where were those files located?
is it just in the framework.res folder? and you either tweak the icons given or replace them with your own personal image?
im tryna grasp the whole concept of the phone, im making a theme as well
wanted to try and edit everything, why not, unlike others i have a lot of free time this term in school, so why not
also you said u used the "windows-step by step" instructions to sign and create your app? i am having troubles with the signing of the apk
I was soooooo waiting for the black and white theme but you have renewed my love for GANT. Manhattan the kid that came up with these icons is amazing. I think he was 13 at the time he created the first GANT theme.
Installing as I type DD
okay...so for me this won't boot past the G1 screen...
oddly, i tried reupdating to deepblack and after the alt+s process this themes icons came up....
well, anywho....nice theme
No clue what BUUF is, but this theme is awesome looking. Downloading/Installing as I type this.

BuuF is the name of the icon pack. Go to deviantart.com and type in buuf or gant

Thank you for your hard work, im loving this theme!!!
BUILD YOUR OWN THEME
Ok folks, here it is, a change to make your own theme. As cool as I think I am, I bet you guys have some pretty good ideas for themes so Im making this a cooking thread for your own person recipes.
These are the ingredients I need:
- Build type, RC30 and ADP1 are preferred but I can make RC8 as well
- Icon pack, you can find any group of icons to use in an size, this means application icons, status bar icons, just anything you want but you have to supply it
- Image for the status bar in portrait and landscape.
So ya, I am kinda figuring this out as I go so post what you want made into a theme and I will see what I can do.
You rock!! I gather a list for ya and post it soon.

This is a pretty cool idea, though I suspect you're gonna get absolutely flooded with requests
If you need files sizes or types let me know or ask and Im sure a bunch of people can answer.
You do know there are requests for themes here.
You can start with a few of those
gucci theme
i dont really have any real ingredients as you put it jus diff icons and use the gucci colors
Well I was hoping it would be more for the people who know exactly what they want and dont know how to put it together than just the people coming up with new ideas. So if you know you you want my carbon fiber status bar, with the silver status icons from Blue Star 5 and defaults icons with one of your own, I could take those things and make a theme out of them in like 30 minutes.
Just close this thread if you would rather me pick it up in the other thread.
What you stated is exactly what i had in mind. Ill pm with my "wishlist and icons" and we can go from there.

If you find me the icons I can throw it together for you no problem.
I really like your Karbon theme, id like the status bar just grey like deep black, your status icons , and this battery meter. is this possible?
http://www.filehosting.org/file/deta...parannoyed.rar
Not sure but i think i saw that icon set on deviant art. might want to take a look.
The status icons from Karbon are great, just the batt meter change.
here are a few icons id like included:
D3ath star=settings
Kerry King guitar=my music
internet=browser
email=email
not sure if you are changing the settings context (menu key menu) with pics
craniac=dialer
flame=messaging
book=contacts
I have an idea....this is gonna get carried away lol
Place all pics in a zip folder with a text file directing what should get done and upload a zip ONLY.

Im building it now, I assume you want RC30 right? And if you can get those icons as PNG files with transparent backgrounds it would be best, if not I can see what I can do.
And just to confirm, the status bar in a dark color will make it so you cant see the text, if thats fine its fine with me.
To respond to Mikey1022, would it also be ok to host them on a site like photobucket and link the pic in the post or would you prefer zip files?

I would just say use your own judgement. If someone will look at the theme and be instantly reminded of another one you pulled from you might want to give a lot of credit to it, but if it was just a platform to start with and its mostly your own creation I would just mention who the theme came from. Just think about it as if it was your theme being used by someone else. Personally its a huge compliment.
you are right perhaps the light grey status bar from macdroid would be better.
Yes RC30, sorry for the lack of info.
I am really contemplating dual booting fedora or mandriva, to better acquaint myself with this stuff.
Ya, I was going to do it with this one but it was way too dark until we can change font colors.
good call, i hope you guys will have access to changing font color soon.
Thanx for doin this, til i force myself to figure it out on my own.
Just for everyone's knowledge, these icons are not my creation. I have collected them over the last year or so from different icon packs mainly downloaded from deviantart. this is mainly a personal theme, that i find appealing for me to look at.
looking for some opinions on icons
here are some icons I have been making started out with blackberry bold icons but started to make icons so here are the ones I made some still are like the blackberry bold but made them more brighter looking for some ideas and good opinions but not to go to far from the design
i like them, simple and nice. what program are you using to make the icons?
Very nice, minimalistic and simple, yet stylish. Well done.
i like simple and clean and i have adobe photoshop elements i had for a good 10 years and i use paint.net and gimp but the icons i did in photoshop i have a hard time going to a new photoshop
I love those Icons, they make a nice interface for the phone.
nice nice.. need em.. lol
Love em. You need to make a theme using these. Preferably a completely dark theme so that the icons stand out a lot.
I like dark backgrounds and I have started a theme I hope to have it out by Saturday.so far I have gutting good replies but my concerns are which my faves icon do you think I should use and do you think the settings looks ok the way it is or do you think the gear needs to be bigger or I was thinking no gear and add a wrench. oh decisions ineed to make up for my stargate theme lol
I like the myFaves icon with the people, but I don't use myFaves at all so my opinion on that doesn't really matter xD
Which icon is the Settings one? The one that looks like a Toolbox? I think that you should make the icon for that either a wrench or gears, but honestly the toolbox will be good enough to identify it since there would be text underneath each icon.
<3 them kron. just waiting for you to release them
Very nice, very nice.
what size do the icon have to be 46x46????
48x48 is the icon size
Great icons! I like the "people" icon for my favs, they all look very nice. hurry up with this theme, lol.
Changing Market app icons?
Does any one know if you need to do anything special to repackage a market app icon? I tried changing an icon for cinema player and signed it with the test keys and it wont install. it says it installed but it isn't.
i would love to know as well
The market icon is in vending.apk
You added your icon to the music app close it, reopened it to make sure it saved it, then resigned it and I didnt work? If you are having trouble signing files try the Stericson signing made easy thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=473580
I don't mean the market app, I mean apps from the market like cinema or shopsavy for example.
i get same error. I can change any of the app icons in the update.zip but when i extract an app with astro and update and sign, it wont install. I even tried the desktop install tool. No luck.
Someone correct me if i'm wrong but wouldn't you need access to that developers source code to do this.
We should have a thread where people can come and ask other peoples opinions on what they should put in their theme. For example, im currently working on a Porsche 911 GT2 Theme, and im wondering what people think I shuld make for the clock, im thinking mayb a tachometer, and im unsure about what I shuld make for icons, but for the pull up bar im going to make it the shifter of a 911 GT2. I need ideas, and feel free to ask for ideas if u need some too.
We do it's create a tile: [Theme] *Name of theme* *Rom version* W.I.P.
you will definately get peoples ideas
Yep thats the way to do it.
Great idea, maybe have the clock transparent with the porsche logo, and a wallpaper of the dash. Good luck with the theme.
Haha, I didnt even think of [email protected], I guess I shuld, n the clock idea isnt bad
this is a work in progress, trying to find and make some different icons...
sephiroth is the boot image and cloud is the loader
http://www.mediafire.com/file/oolyt1tzjhj/finalfantasy7.zip
Hehe very nice. Are the dialer buttons supposed to be materia?
If you can customize the "force close" message, have it say "Sephiroth has to kill Aerith."
this is on my phone cant wait for icons
Sorry if I'm being spamy. I would like to make few sujestions. I would like to the line on the wall papers gone... idk it just bugs me and also the batteery icon should be the color og green material it blends in a bit to much. Oh maybe put a hint of red from the summoning material. But even if u don't make these changes I still love ur theme
i will make a few changes, no problem
ff10
make a final fantacy 10 model lol that will be even better lol
Please insert in your title what rom version this theme is for!??!
It doesn't work on JFv1.42, freeze on T-Mobile G1 Screen, that's my experience.
It works on jf. Rc33 lite. I'm runing it right now promise. Also if the dev reads reds this battery color is slighty off center.
it works on lite or regualar, if u removed the stock tones and notifications....i know the color is slightly off, only my second theme, so i am slowing down now and taking my time making them, i was over excited finally being able to make them....
I was just given u a feed little back. If this is only your second theme than I can't wait for your third. U are very good at this. This is an art and one in my opion you are very good at. Sorry if it came off like I was putting down your work. Take all the time you need to make this theme even better than it allready is.
no apologies i didnt take ur comment like that, thanks for thecompliment, i am working on a hulk theme, i actually have it done but i have to replace some things, i liked gloss suites apps bar, so i used it, but i am going to make a different one and , see what people think...
i wish you would come with some icons for this theme... but oh well its still cool
icons are coming, got wrapped up in making other ones...i will update in a few days....
