Thanks for the tip. Does this work on icons though? I messed around and couldn't figure it out. Are there instructions anywhere for it?

it lets you customize all kinds of things related to your notification bar. If you're wanting to upload custom icons, I don't think you can do that, but you have a bunch to choose from.
If your rom is supported on the site, you can pick it from the list. if not, you can upload your framework-res.apk to have it edited

indeed, they are the gingerbread version it looks like. nice find!
yeah give them a try, they look really good
it seems whatever CM7 version mods he has on his website are using the old update method, so wont work with CMR3. and pushing the framework-res.apk manually gives a boot loop, so hmm. ill have to contact him and see whats up...
You just have to use amend2edify I think that's what its called there is a script floating around that makes things work in 3.0

thanks for the tip. i also found out that the CM7 versions on his website arent for the DInc. the folders within the framework-res.apk all have "-v4" tacked on the end. example: they are named "drawable-res-v4" instead of what the DInc CM7 has "drawable-res." and you cant just rename it because then the XMLs wont link to the files properly. and i dont know how to compile those so, ill have to see what i can figure out... thanks tho.

yeah should have mentioned that. i'm trying to port them to skyraider, but it's my first attempt. i've got the icons, but it causes fc's.
Hampster, try this. You can remove the alarm before if you want.

[DEV] Help a new chef with CRT animations?

Any of these super chefs want to give us a definitive guide on how to add the CRT animations to a ROM?
I am more than comfortable with decompiling and modifying XMLs, but it would be nice to know where i am going.
Think of it this way... Whenever anyone else asks you about the animations, you can just link them to this thread and be done with it.
And yes, i have searched and there isnt much good information out there.
Even better - any way someone can create a flashable zip to add these to any rom? Now that devs are baking them into their roms,i dont see why it wouldn't be possible!

Try this flashable zip BUT before you go and do all of this, NANDROID backup your ROM......ONCE AGAIN, BACKUP your ROM.....because this is 50/50, it might work, I just tried it on sense 2.2 and it works like a champ!
Also, don't just flash it and NEVER come on here again....let me know if it does or doesn't because if it does then I'll start up a thread so others can use it....

this way works pretty good.
also if ur do a search for flashable fonts youll come up with a thread completely dedicated to fonts.
if u decide to use MiUI there are tons and tons of options out there available thru the .mtz format.
u have options, just have to use ur resources ya know.

Ive been trying to learn more about this myself.. Like how to edit .9 images and xmls. I have been searching for guides and just going by trial and error but it seems like im at a dead end.. Cant find enough info to even get started. Editing png files with paint.net is easy, but if anyone could point me in the right direction for a place to learn how to go more in depth with xml and .9s, it would be greatly appreciated.

I have watched that video, I'm more looking for ways to do things such as transparent notification pulldown, theme the menu (selections, over scroll), theme the dialer, etc.. That would be awesome if we could get some help with this! I would be willing to throw a donation to you if I could get a better understanding of how to start.

You could try looking at the theming tutorial in android>android themes section of xda. Its one of the stickies. It'll show you the basic outline of theming and every tool you need.

Actually that's possible. I can try workout on that one.
If you don't mind, I would like to port that in my new custom ROM too. It looks cool.
I will spend sometimes later to figure it out. Let you know shortly.
Ps: you can try it out yourself too if you know how and which file to decompile. Otherwise, sit tight and wait.

i think i have minor down which image file they use. however, i assume the file has to compile under .9.png file method which is quite impossible for me to achieve as i am still learning.
so i can't really help you with this. i can be wrong in all this. sorry mate.
gotta continue with my rom.
Well in gingerbread the file is in systemUI.apk and its called status_bar_background.png
No .9png's to mess with. Im not sure about ICS though, if you wanna upload your systemUI I can take a look.
edit: no it doesn't i'm not on samsung sorry.
