[Q] Q Please help, can't morph anything

Metamorph gives me an error message saying it can't read the theme control file. It does this for every file I try. I'm putting the zipped files in the Android theme file of my sdcard. I assume they should be zipped. The main theme I'm trying is darkdream. I have a evo and i'm using frost Rom which has fresh as a base.

Are you certain you can theme this ROM? I just performed a search for things like "theme," "deodex," and "morph" and came up with only one result that was talking about theme'ing the dialer.
Try a different ROM and then try to use a MetaMorph theme and see if you get better results.

changing roms?
I flashed a riptide9 theme through recovery and it works fine on this Rom. I'm using frost because it has the same radio as fresh that allows me to tether with my ps3, but it has less bloat. Can u recommend a Rom that will do both and morph? I thought since frost had fresh as a base themes that work for fresh would by default work on frost

---------------- How to install it -------------------
1) If you have a lagfix, disable it
2) wipe data/cache/dalvik
3) install zip from sdcard "Ginger_BASE" (from ClockWorkMod recovery)
3a) if something wrong happen (because kernels < K9 are a little incompatible with K9) i advice to you to install JM8 or JM9 (rom eclair) with pit512 and re-partition flagged in Odin, then flash official JP5 with pit803 without re-partition always from Odin. At this point, flash SpeedMod > or equal to K9 you prefer (as long as K9) from Odin as PDA. So, wipe data and cache, and proceed as described at point 3)...
4) reboot
5) return in recovery and make a wipe cache/dalvik-cache
6) install zip from sdcard "Ginger_THEME"
7) reboot

...if i forgot someone remember me please...

Nice rom to play with.
I installed over Docs Jp6. The first time I booted I was stuck at the welcome screen. Seems like the email.apk was faulty.
I installed the email.apk from doc, also I wasn't sure if it was recognizing launcher pro as my only launcher, so I installed the one from doc again, all from recovery.
Next boot works fine. Apart from side scrolling on emails.
This Rom has not wiped any data.

Great work!
Going to try it!

thanks bud, but you may want to add the new Gingerbread theme which makes the text black in the drop down bar will try it now!

Take some rest now....upgrade new goodies if them come
Thanks for your help

This looks really nice. Downloading now, thanks alot.

Hey dude, i've been trying to install this ROM for the past 2 hours now but no dice. Keeps on getting stuck at boot, i've followed your instructions to the T. Any ideas? Thanks!

Well done! it's always nice to see italian people making good roms!

I'd like to see this work with JPO. A gingerbread theme will do until we get an unofficial or official ROM.

Same problem here. I'm using JPO firmware, still wont boot correctly after wipes of data and cache. The touch keys work and light up, no vibration though - just random vibrations.
Re-flashed and still no luck.

Need help applying MIUI themes!?

Hi, I have had the previous versions of MIUI working great and have been able to change themes easily by simply dropping in the MIUI/Themes folder then ap0plying through settings/personal. Something in the latest versions seem to have changed, with no explanation?! Firstly some themes dont show, Ive noticed that the file extension has changed to MTZ but then when I apply as a "system style" some things change but not all, eg background and icons unchanged.
Help this is one of the main reasons I changed to MIUI, now it seems frustatingly complicated and broken?!
Using stock 12.24 and ebglish language pack btw

131 views and not one comment, this forum really is dying!?

Hmm, not sure if I can help but I will at least make a suggestion.
I'm using the same MIUI ROM (12.24 R2 to be exact), and do not appear to have any issues with it, especially with theming.
Are you using 12.12 R1?
Did you flash the language pack manually?
Did you perform a full wipe of the data and caches before flashing the ROM?
EDIT: Do you have the Gingerbread keyboard installed? I think that may be the cause to your problem as it breaks theming with MIUI apparently.

I installed the language pack by just going into recovery and flashing if thats ok?
Didn't install any gingerbread keyboard unless it came with original miui rom
On this install didnt wipe anything, but with previous I did factory reset and had problems with themes then too.
Cheers for the reply though

[MOD][XXJVQ][ODEX] and that is not lag internal browser base

Hello everyone,
after passing through the deodex JVQ, I come back to the Odex basic lag and too much waiting in use, for lack of cons with hacks
So I share with you two things for the JVQ Odex
- Touchwiz 4 with a apps Phone, Sms and Contacts (based on "SGS2-AOSP Icons / TW4 / Hacked Apps" of Switchrock)
http://www.multiupload.com/4JD1YICWYP
- A mod (still for JVQ Odex) LockScreen AOSP, Effect CRT,% round, green battery, power Extended menu icons radio green house icons "scedric57"
based on a mix of Bo$s & Pomdeter, and that is not lag internal browser base http://www.multiupload.com/AUZHISIHLM (updated ok, version 1.2)
ATTENTION Extended power menu not work !
the same with the original lockscreen: http://www.multiupload.com/ACBYCGY222
the same, reviewed by Pomdeter, with the green battery in percentage: http://www.multiupload.com/5SQZ0MK75O
version for the restoration Stock in if Odex JVQ: http://www.multiupload.com/RVNP3WPM0Q

and on the basis JVQ via odin in 3 files ODEX

ps : escuse me for my bad english

Hi there, you're excused for your English no problem! but I have to say I have no clue what you mean with this
'after passing through the deodex JVQ, I come back to the Odex basic lag and too much waiting in use, for lack of cons with hacks'
Can you give us some instructions on how to install?
-Do we run them from the recovery menu?
-Do we replace apk and/or .odex files manually?
I'm very interested cause I'd like to keep my JVQ odex as stock as possible but with your mods it would be perfect!

These are flashable with CMW3 and do seam to work and do not lag the browser which is great.

Great job.

Don't hesitate to do more mods to the stock rom

One comment, you said that the extended power menu doesn't work.
True.
What now also doesn't work anymore is Quickboot (from the market).
That doesn't do anything anymore after installing JVQ_Mod_Odex_SLD_V1.2.zip
After restoring JVQ_odex_Restore.zip it still doesn't work, also similar apps like AnReboot stopped working altogether.
I think the problem has to do with root permissions somehow being withdrawn or deleted cause all my apps that require root access have stopped working to. They start/run but don't execute their function (e.g. droidwall complains it no longer has root access).
Can you please look into this?
Update:
Fixing root permissions in cwm recovery solves the above problem but is persistant (also happened after a second install of the mods).
The Extended Power Menu options result in the GUI being restarted.

i lost root.

Reapplied it easily as I'm on tegrak kernel. Tried reinstalling superuser. Doesn't work.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App

I reinstalled root from within the Speedmod kernel, that worked without a problem (just took me some time to figure out loosing my root was the problem).
The good thing is I have the nice circle mod and some graphics tweaks plus the browser still rocks!
But I would consider this still a beta that needs some more work.

So If I understand it correctly, this fixes the browser on a deodexed JVQ rom, but it will cost you root and the extended power menu? Great work! I hope you can fix those issues, I don't know I can easily re-root my phone (running on darkcore 2.8) and I like the extended power menu too much to give it up
Again, great work. You've made a lot of people happy!

It doesn't fix the browser cause it ain't broken.
It also doesn't cost you root if you're on speedmod.
And I guess the extended menu is something being worked on so it looks good from my pov, at least I have a great stock slightly themed JVQ!

Okay, make it useable then. Calling the stock browser laggy on a deodexed JVQ is an understatement.

Great TW4 stef !
Just upload .zip in CWM and you have a new phone !
Thanks

The point I made was that the stock browser is not broken on the odexed version and we run these theme mods on the odexed stock JVQ so the browser is not fixed.

Which one shall I install TW4_JVQ_ODEX_V1 or JVQ_Mod_Odex_SLD_V1.2 or both since the contents of the two are different? Is there any bugs after installing this mod? Kindly please explain between the two version what's the difference. These are just my questions on this mod.

TW4 is the one that should contain touchwiz 4.
The other one contains the mods like green battery, etc...
I've just installed the TW4 mod on my odex JVQ running speedmod.
But the boot took 2 minutes, while it normaly takes about 25 seconds.
Will this happen on future boots too?
EDIT:
This doesn't contain TW4, just the icons.
It's still the old, ugly TW3.
EDIT2:
the restoration file doesn't convert the tw4 icons (contacts+messages) back to old school TW3.
Please fix this, cause i don't want to flash JVQ again.

So basically this doesn't make it like TW4 only the icons even if I install both mods. It will just look like TW4 but the way it works will still be TW3. Is this correct?

Not sure what you flashed but this is definately TW4
Transparent dock, semi transparent background in app drawer, page numbers at bottom in app drawer and homescreens and of course icons have been changed.
Works like a charm, thank you very much!

[Q] UOT Kitchen - System.apk/Framework.apk

So, I forgot to backup my system & framework apk's before I uploaded them into the kitchen and made a new theme. *I know, shame on me*.
Is there a default/stock for those or are they created based of individual phone information?
What i'm asking is, do I need to re-install the rom to get those back or can I just pull them from above said stock apk's?
Android: 2.3.5
Rom:Cm7(08012011)
Any help would be greatly apprecaited!!!
Thanks-

i'm confused. are you saying you dont like your theme and want to go back to stock or you want you want to update to the next nightly but dont want to do the kitchen every time?

I'm not reaaal familiar with the kitchen stuff, I know more than enough to get myself in trouble (changing radio's, roms, etc) but haven't completely grasped the themes yet.
It SEEMS like a couple of things are not changing even if I create a completely new theme (The battery icon, the lockscreen buttons and something else I forget)
My thinking is, there's a generic theme(s) for the rom and when you create a get a new one, it updates certain aspects of it.
If I create a new theme in kitchen and only change the battery, wouldn't all of the other settings revert to the "default" theme?
On a completely different note-
What's the difference between ADW themes and Themechoose themes?

Ah. ok. so what ever you change in the kitchen it will change in the apk. it wont touch the rest of the apk. its kinda like an online apktool. it unpackages it changes the png's you want and then packages it up again using the resources from the apk you submitted. ADW themes are for the ADW launcher so it only themes the home screens. but Themechooser themes the whole phone, or as much as the developer of themechooser allowed it to do.

Great! Thanks
