I want to edit the phone.apk for cm7 without modifying the whole theme... I have looked everywhere for a phone metamorph and I was unsuccessful in locating this maybe someone could direct me to a thread that may help me?
N/m will wait for better themes for CM7
so i didnt find in the net guide to create theme for my SGS and i dont know how to optimize those in the site to my ROM so i want to learn how to create theme and im sure that a lot of members would like that too
Hello,
I would like to know how I would go about porting this TWRP theme from the HTC One X to our phone! Any help is appreciated! And not I'm not asking for someone to do it for me, but if you know how to do it I'd appreciate that too!
Theme: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942309
Thank in advance!
To port this theme you will have to modify the code in the .xml file within the .zip. It's not as easy as just simply changing the 1280x720 pixel resolution code to 800x480 pixels (just tried, ahaha). You'll have to modify the codes that links to the particular images being used so that it would resize properly, problem is that there are alot that needs to be changed.
I would do it for you, but I wouldn't know where to start as it would be my first time to work on a theme for TWRP. It would be better to ask the original creator of the theme if they can do it for you or perhaps pass his/her knowledge to you.
Hi all.
I have found this Samsung theme designer http://http://developer.samsung.com/bada-themes/tools-sdks/Samsung-Theme-Designer-2-0-4 is this what I need to create s6/S7 themes. If so where can I find a template so I can design or edit some themes please.

Hi Mercedes.
Unfortunately no, it isn't. The theme designer you've linked is outdated (2012).
Now they call it "Theme Service" and you must apply and be accepted to start using theirs web based designing tool:
http://developer.samsung.com/theme-service
Master @pas2001 is one of the few fortunates that had already been accepted by Samsung.
Nevertheless, this is no limitation to honorables like @bobster0203, @Venom0642 and @ted77usa that are already ruling the field despite Samsung wishes :victory:
You may follow their work here.
Be welcome to the simple mortals family. :cyclops:
Nice regards.

It's not "so" ... so ... I may suggest you an alternate approach as below:
(Note: it's not a "state of art" as others but it's mine and I can submit it to you)
a) Download my S6 theme package (signature link)
b) Download my KATKit set of tools (signature link)
c) Decompile the Theme Package (with the tools)
d) Play with the Theme. Learn. Talk. Shout. This is a development/sharing forum. We are all here for this purpose only.
e) Recompile YOUR OWN Theme Package (with the tools)
f) Share it with the community
g) Be Xtremely Welcome

Hi KnifeCat
Yes, it's possible.
Coding knowledge is desirable but not mandatory. Design skills are placed just between desirable and mandatory.
Only will is mandatory.
There are a lot of stuff regarding your needs that has been already discussed during the development of the AllBacksBlack S6 that you probably will consider very useful. Please take your time to read the thread.
The above development used a tool set named KAT Kit that, as you will see, is already set up to work with Samsung Theme Engine. Again, read the thread that there are lots of needed knowledge spread there.
Be welcome to post further questions onto appropriate thread.
Nice regards.
