Hey guys i've ran into a problem that maybe one of you experienced themers can help with. I am running Lou's Redemptive rEVOlutionn rom and decided the status bar and icons were too stock looking so I decided to replace them with another one. Well I went into framework-res and com.htc.resources and replaced everything I wanted to change then rebooted, after rebooting my phone everything was what I wanted it to be but when I plugged my phone back into my computer and the usb icon came up it was the same icon as before. I went back into framework-res and double checked to make sure I replaced the usb icon and yet assured I did. So I am at a loss here, i've been searching for other places where the icon would be and haven't found it anywhere besides the framework-res apk. Can anyone help me out?

Hey! Just flashed back to SkyRaider after giving the Desire Z ROM a go, and one little thing I really liked about it was the icon for 3G and 1X in the notification bar. Any way to put that into a standard Sense rom? Thanks!
The icons should be in framework-res.apk like they are in everything else.
I'll take a look and see what i can do.
EDIT: These particular icons are hiding in com.htc.resources.apk
This is my first MetaMorph theme, but it looks like it should work. Use at your own risk though. If anyone more experienced would like to tell me if this is right or not, I'd appreciate it.
anyone have a screenshot of what they look like
They're actually the stock Android icons. I don't know why, but HTC decided to stop using their custom ones.

Haha so they are! Can't believe I didn't notice that before.
Hey folks!
I've noticed that some of the ROMs have a number displayed in the battery indicator, at the top right corner of the screen(I think it's called the status bar area). I'm running the latest Sprint Lovers ROM and originally I had this feature. I kinda liked it. Actually, I like it alot. So yesterday I added the power control widget to my notification bar and in the process I overwrote whatever was enabling the percentage to be displayed inside of the battery indicator. So my question is how can I get that feature back on my EVO?? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm new to this stuff. I have no clue how to edit an .apk. But can I just copy the original framework-res.apk from the Sprint Lovers zip file and overwrite the existing framework-res.apk on my phone?? Will that do it?
Anybody know how to do this in Sense 2.1 (running RMK Gingersense right now)? Not looking for anything super special just a simple percentage would be nice, esp if someone has cooked up a simple patch for it.

is it me or is that site down? I been trying to connect all day and it goes to loading page error
It's been up and down. I managed to get through yesterday.
I just want a 6 signal bar mod and BIOS boot screen! D: lol
yeah I went to try UOT before I posted but it's been down for me yesterday and today the times I've tried That's why I was wondering if someone had cooked up one.
I might just try to learn to do it the old school way and rip out the apks
I would like the same thing, no one has themed it yet?
I've been using the "circular battery indicator", it shows %s in the status bar; You can find the .apk for it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8639993
No root required, put it in the root of your SD card and install it through Astro or another file manager.
I'm also looking for this mod on RMK's GingerSense. I'd like the stock battery with % though. Hopefully an apk will be made available.

Thank you very much!
Great mods Andy! I had a couple questions I was hoping you could answer! I saw that you created a mod for Virtuous where you inverted the menu and changed the lettering to white. Could you give me a quick tip on how to do this with this ROM? I was able to do it with my old Droid by changing what I seem to remember was the menuitem_background.xml file, however it seems that doesn't work with this ROM?? I think I was able to get the menu inverted, however I can't get the text to be white.
Also, I've tried a bunch of different things to get the Verizon Wireless carrier text off the pulldown, however no matter what I do I can't get it removed! Do you have any tips for getting this changed?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

That's a MOD that took me a very long time to figure out, That's not a quick how-to, but I will work on it for this ROM, also I'll take a look I think I know how to get rid of the Verizon txt, PM me for that.
Also you will find that pretty much everything is different from the droid (i think) because of sense.

Thanks! Does the pulldown also change the menu background, or just the pulldown background?
I tried changing the eri.xml file for both the T-CDMA 64 and 65 lines based on this thread (link), but neither of those worked. UGH!!

Hmmm...in the status_bar_expanded.xml there's a portion referencing the Carrier Label (android:id="@id/carrierLabel"), but I don't know where to change that text, or even if it's possible?
Battery mod would be awesome for those who arent comfortable with using the Kitchen.
Thanks for the mods. Very cool. Quick question do you recommend wiping cache and dalvik or just flashing over the Rom as is?

It may very well be my file, it worked for me, but others have reported the same thing happening when I do that MOD. sorry.
Hey guys, I've just started getting into the basics of theming my own stuff and can't figure out how to get the stock market with the blue icon I made (attached). I'm wondering if anyone would be so kind as to get this made for me and/or give me the steps needed to get it done myself. I tried just replacing the icon in Phonesky like I did for SMS, but that didn't seem to work... The market opens and the icon in the top left corner is blue momentarily then reverts back to green, and the normal system icon never changes from green. Again, I don't really have any idea as I'm just a beginner with modifying files myself.
I didnt make this. Pulled it from a rom. Enjoy.
Thanks, I just swapped out the icon I wanted in the stock vending apk and it worked fine. I tried that before and it didn't work, must not have rebooted or something
Oh well, thanks though!
How do you install the blue market?
