Hi im running coolexe hd version 7 rom,its nice,i like sense,i like the way the rom runs,is there anything else i could add,anyone got ideas.like for instance the battery,i like the circular version,do i just put it in the zip before updating the rom? font also,i used to use the sony sketch font which i liked,can i change the font totally?
and finally anything else that people like or love,suggestions would be good
things like the modified battery icons can usually be found as zips that you can apply from recovery
download the zip to phone -> boot to recovery -> "apply zip from sd"

I have the stock rom and I have rooted through visionary and it works for what I want but would like the black notification bar and the battery/signal from the sense (the more square green battery)
Is there a way to change it without having to flash another rom? Sorry if it's posted elsewhere I've looked and haven't found anything on it
you could use metamorph
Hmm...well since I've never used Metamorph I'm a little lost on which themes I can use and which I can't. Is it any that people have labeled as [Theme]?

i dont use it so i couldnt tell you ... try searching for one and you may find it
metamrph is app from the market. if a theme is for metamorph it will be labled on the topic title [morph] or [metamorph] or it will be labled on the op. some are rom specific but most arent. download metamorph and andexplorer the 2 work together. MM will then put a folder on ur sd called android themes. download a metamorph and it is in zip file, place it in android themes and apply via the MM app. now if u find a MM like inspira, you can take the imigaes out of the morph that is a zip file on ur comuter and edit the images to ur likeing and take out the images u dont want changed. but make sure u put the new images back in the zip folder or remove the images u dont want in the zip folder. so take the inspira MM and put it on ur computer extract the files and look for the status bar image in the framewrk-res folder. i cant remember i believe its called status bar background. and edit it to ur likeing via paint.gimp.or photoshop. you can even download other metamorphs extract the imigaes u want say the sense battery indicator u want. or even take the images from a stock sense rom. you will find something in system/framework/ called frameworl-res.apk. put it on ur computer and rename it to framework-res.zip instead of apk and extract the files. find the battery images and replacve them in ur morph. google or youtube how to make a metamorph. its really simple and once u start making themes u really start to know ur way around the android system
edit; im getting a laptop in 2 weeks. when i do ill make an awsome youtube video on how to morph and make them
Sounds fairly easy once I find a metamorph theme, I can do the editing from there..my biggest question though would be if I edit the bar to black it would keep the clock black correct? From what I remember with CM roms they had the option to change the clock color but without that it seems like it will stay black am I correct?

Are you on the stock rom? I haven't wanted to switch roms cause I use the wireless hotspot from time to time
I am currently running the Ultimate Droid ROM version 3.2.5 and the kernel it comes with and I haven't changed the radio. I got to UD settings and extras and I find the theme I want I press Install Theme. It then opens up and info tab that says, "Working. Running Command ..." This goes on for what seems like forever. It has been doing this for 25min now.
I was just wondering if this was the normal time it should take and if not, what is a way to fix this?
I have no problem getting out of the window but the main reason I got UD 3.2.5 was for it's customization and if I can't install themes I will be pretty bummed.
Any thoughts?
Okay so I was able to "Install" the theme, however, when I reboot my phone nothing has changed. Any ideas?
In your apps there is an app called theme manager I believe. Open it and you should be able to apply the installed theme.

im on easydoesit v2.2 and im having trouble mounting in root explorer...if i reboot enough times i can get it to mount but the files that i delete or add don't save...
for example...im trying to delete apex launcher since i have go launcher...when i delete the apk it says file deleted...but when i click refresh it comes back
is this a problem specific to the rom or are others having the same problem on other ICS roms?
if anyone knows how to fix this please help
thanks in advance
I had some odd Superuser issues on Raver's ROM, so I flashed Wrathdu's latest Superuser binary and it seems to have fixed that. Search for Wrathdu or Zeppelinrox, he posted it too

I installed the most recent MIUI ICS image, and installed Go Launcher EX after because I need an app drawer.
However I noticed that both in the stock launcher and Go Launcher, tons of my apps had this gross square background on them. Even already square icons like facebook have a second background behind them. I've fiddled around in all the settings I can think of and none of them turn this off.
Ideas?
I'd post an image but I have yet to obtain such permissions.
EDIT: I guess this is more of a general ICS question, since installing Launcher Pro didnt fix it either.
Trying to understand what you mean. Are you saying you want the ics icons instead of the miui icons?

Edit: I'm on miui ics by the way in case u didn't notice lol

MIUI ICS
I'm pretty experienced with flashing roms and bumped into this MiUI ICS for the EVO. I couldn't find the 4G, they haven't enabled WiMax yet for this rom?

Did you read anything about MIUI before flashing it?
The answer is no. There's never been 4G on MIUI. Probably never will be. It's Chinese, where they don't have wimax, and it's closed source, so devs can't add it in.
And to the OP, that's normal. Some themes will remove the icon background. If you want me to modify your theme or make one without icon backgrounds, just send me a pm. It'll just take a second.
MIUI ics v4 2.5.7
I've been trying to flash MIUI 2.5.7 v4, I do everything on the instructions, but still won't reboot, does anyone have any idea if there is anything else to do::
1. Downloaded the zip to root in sd
2. reboot into cm recovery
3. whipped apps data and dalvik cache
4. flashed zip file
5. try to reboot system, but these is the step where my phone stops doing anything.
I've tried to install without deleting apps an data, I've tried flashing with RA but still doesn't work....
Thanks...

Continue to use AmonRA to flash this or any other ROM [CM has been proven not to fully wipe when trying custom ROM]... You may want to wipe everything EXCEPT for your SDcard then try reflashing the ROM again... If for some reason that doesn't work then you may want to redownload the ROM again to eliminate the possibility of you trying to flash a bad download.

I'm quite certain it's not _exactly_ what he's been speaking of.
I've installed a GB MIUI on my HTC Desire and have similar problems.
It's not the MIUI theme icons vs. stock GB\ICS icons question.
It's that MIUI apparently ADDS a padding background under ALL app icons, regardless of the launcher you're using.
So even in GoLauncher I'm seeing these terrible "glass" green-tinted squares under ALL the friggin icons, even the ones which could absolutely do without it. If I knew whose idea it was not to make this optional - I'd buy an airline ticket to see him and do unspeakable things unto him.
Once MIUI ICS has it's theme ap all sorted out, you can change your icons to those of any theme that's out there. Heck, there are ICS themes now you can try and change them with.
That's one of the great things about MIUI. The fact that you can theme each individual aspect of the phone with just a few clicks.

Also, Swiper's MIUI is on the verge of having 4G

No good. I downloaded a theme and applied its icons, but still get this icon background thing. Maybe it's because it's not vanilla MIUI but a variant (FCR MIUI).
See attached screenshot for example:
1. Icon "reader" is a custom icon set by me, it displays normally.
2. Icon "Cool Reader" is default app icon, shows with a background, same for "Calc".
UPD
Too bad, I was getting to like MIUI, but
- absence of trackpad2unlock
- no patch for 2-way recording in their kernels
- godawful iphonesque icon padding which won't go away
- no consistently working hardkey backlight disabling
are reasons enough to switch back to my original rom, which was not so snappy and cool, but offers all these benefits which are substantial.

Ok Ill quote myself and if someone may assist me in finding the answer I do believe more people than me may have had the same issue...
1.- I just went to apps settings and erased all cache on this, extra data for sense home, reboot, stated the same.
2.- I dont know if i download HTC Sense Home by APK i might be able to install it once again with an additional APK installer since the android defult is not allowing me to reinstall it (I downloaded htc sense from a post on xda).
3.-Maybe I will need to try a modified zip rom to flash htc sense from recovery...need to find that file somewhere on xda
4.-Erease perhaps Dalvik/Cahce from recovery????
Help mates please!

Why don't you just dirty flash the viper rom over your messed system? If you don't wipe anything you will not lose any of your data.
