Everyone said once we had source for froyo we would have all these amazing roms and kernels. So where are they at? We have 4 custom roms which only 2 are fully functional and 1 oc kernel.I'm only counting the ones that have eb13 files. Its been a week how much longer do they need?

You sound like an ungrateful prick.
And your an ios lover. Get out of here troll.........
Epic 4g
Ad hominem, the first sign you've lost an argument. How exactly am I an ios lover? I mean acting like you somehow are entitled to the devs work is a definite **** move, but calling someone out is hardly something that indicates an iOS lover. If you're going to insult someone at the very least be accurate.
If u two want to bicker than do it via pm

I'm glad an actual dev posted this, because I really get aggravated when people act entitled to the excellent pro bono work you guys do and probably have never even donated.

TO THE OP and austin420: Stop *****ing about where's the roms and kernel's for EB13, IF YOU WANT A NEW ROM LEARN TO MAKE ONE! The people who Develop these roms take time out of THEIR LIVES to create a rom or kernel to share with the world so that others like YOU TWO can have them. XDA is about development not free loaders complaining about lack of roms, I personally have not attempted to create a rom yet because I am still learning the android system, but unlike you to I am VERY GRATEFUL for every single rom that is on this site, as well as all the kernels for every phone. You have no right to complain if you do not contribute, so either develop something, be a tester, or STFU and deal with what you have!
and finally to 063_XOBX: you are right sir in every way, these two are ungrateful and this original post is nothing but a troll post and should be DELETED.
feel free to flame me I care not but the truth is the truth
I feel sorry for the op that ask a question in a Q& A forum where it belongs. And these Dev pole jockers AKA d*** riders come in and flame the man. He probably ask the the questions because these same pole jockers, are the ones that put a date on when the Devs would have a rom out and not the Devs themselves. If anything in the future Devs need to check folks that say false info like "don't wait for OTA, Our devs will have a custom Rom up in a couple of days if not hours" ~The pole jockers. Man some of these cats on here I don't get smh.

No offense but there are some weird looking themes in this thread. The old ass non-modern look of most of these themes is killing me. Those themes were made to be made in the 1990's when wolves were cool to have on posters. Here is one from the Vibrant forum that exemplifies more of a modern minimalistic look.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=964519
Not to be rude either but I want to point out that you just insulted all of the themers in our forum and then immediately followed that up with a request. You maybe waiting a bit for your request to be fulfilled.
I agree that talkin smack isn't going to take u places, especially when the people you are requesting make this theme do it for free..
Additionally, that theme is not what I would call minimalist.. its orange, with some weird looking stringy aosp style lock screen.. if u want orange I would suggest u try the latest viperrom.. t_phllips did a great job with it and its not far from that theme..
If u want what I would call minimalist, flash the theme by maddoggin.. purchase adw launcher ex and use the 'minimalist' adw theme. The result is pure black and whites

More like a 5th of Wild Turkey to make a request and then insult the people you want to spend 40 or more hours making your port request. And since you used "wolves" in your comment I take this directed more at me. So after you get over your MD 20-20 hangover I think you need to give the members in this section an apology. If not, I have a psychiatric hospital I can get you committed for 30 days or more, or determined if you are insane.

I'm 50/50 with you on this. While most of the themes I've seen available for, not just the Epic, but most phones in general, are very dated and, simply put, ugly/tacky as hell, the one you suggested is not much better. It's a poor example of what really is modern, sheek and minimalistic.
The only difference is I have the skill set to create something for myself, and myself only. If you came here to bash the others, you should probably learn the skills required to satisfy your own needs. With your attitude, there is no motivation for anyone to do you any favors.
For a truly good example of modern and minimalistic, you should refer to Watermoore's screenshots in the screenshot thread.
Its true; that was a pretty inane way of starting a request, lol...
...not to say I disagree. It kinda comes with the territory dude. A lot of folks seem to like the super-cluttered 90's-style bulkt-metal-chrome-icons style of themes. But these are the same devs that give us awesomely functional ROMs. Different skillsets is all. You really should just do it yourself because I know a lot of people would be thankful if someone with better design tastes started porting themes over.
Except for the themes with wolves. Ladies LOVE wolves you guys.

I agree with you also. Nice shot at me tho . I work on cars for a living and I love the look of black and chrome. There's a bunch of ideas got themes I got in my vault but don't have the time between working on my only theme that Is public to helping other themers, working on mods, and working on a rom. I do all this in my spate time between 60 hour work weeks and 4 kids.
I didn't build my theme for you or anyone else on xda. I built it for my self and decided I would share. I'm sure this is why other themers made and released there themes to the public.
I have the ability to blow tort mind away. I just don't got the time. If you don't like the work that's available then move on. Sitting here and disrespecting the devs then asking for something to be done in your favor is just asinine.

I agree with the OP 100% , it would be nice to get some more variety in the clean / modern styled themes.
LoL sorry guys I didn't mean to belittle your work either. If we had a bunch of beautiful themes in this forum we probably wouldn't have the brilliant roms that we do. And most of us totally get that this is just people sharing their personal stuff with the rest of the forum.
For the record, I'm a designer by trade, so this kind of stuff is always super-present on my mind. But - I can't wrap my head around the masses of code that some of you look at on a daily basis. I'm also an artsy pretentious asshole . I mean I will pass on an app in the market if it has a crappy icon, for christ's sake.
Anyway, people like me who are super picky still have options like the Gingerbread theme.
EDIT: This thread has inspired me to look into the theming process. I think I'll read up one the (awesome) tutorial thread this weekend. I've done a lot of skinning for other UIs in the past so it shouldn't take me too long to pick up. As soon as I can, I'll make a thread for requests and will attempt to prioritize what people want, as well as my own scrutiny of course. This is kind of the off-season for design work anyway so I need something to keep me busy

Part two to the Honey Saga.. After Samuel2706 and his team did HoneySense for the Desire HD, they decided.. why just Sense? Maybe AOSP and MIUI can get the same treatment too...
... And they did.
(and GazaIan was the magical little boy that ported it to our phones )
Welcome to Honeyogen One!
Honeyogen is in it's early stages. It's based off of Cyanogenmod 7 so this is probably the part where you run away. If you followed Honeysense, you'd see how it much has changed in it, and how intensely themed it was. We're just getting started. This is just a wee little thread now, but when it blossoms, you'll be amazed, like I was.
You know what AOSP looks like, nothing magical has been added other than light theming. Once theming is heavier, I'll add in screenies.
And to you, is a download link. http://goo.gl/b0YN5
Keep an eye out for Senseless One, HoneyMIUI One, and Flying Glacier One (HTC Flyer port from our favorite cousin, Desire HD).

this is actually a rom that was ported from desireHD [found here] there is a mention of it in his OP "(and GazaIan was the magical little boy that ported it to our phones )" He maybe should have thrown a link up to that site but either way he does mention the orignal dev and place of origin, but maybe need to list his "thanks" a bit better... you need to understand that every rom has a "base" whether it be AOSP/CM7/Sense or a combination of them.. So i would say this is a rom, a heavily themed rom, but its still a rom..IMO a theme would be something created for a specific rom that could be applied only to that rom, its all open for argument, but its not like any of us are a corporation with a staff of software engineers creating and developing overlays for android... so i dont know why u r creating this issue esp considering you are not even flashing it??? And i am not sure what the truth is about the Dev's on this board but i can tell you that no one here is getting paid like its a job nor is it an obligation for anyone.. this is a hobby for us nerds, u r not obligated to use any of these roms.. what u say is in no way constructive to the thread, so y do u even bother?

I've seen a lot of people port themes from iOS to Android. I used to be an iOS person, but then I switched to Android (I love it). How can I port/make one? I've seen the thread in the themes section, but It's for EC05..
Umm...slightly confused...you want to port a theme from ec05 to what your currently on?

Nah, he said he use to be an Iphone user (iOS) who switched over to Android. He said he's noticed many people have been sucessful at recreating iOS themes (originally meant for the iPhone) over to Android. He's also saying that the only thread he's been able to find on such subject is for EC05. He wants to know if it can be done for EI22.
Now, @12th Planet, this is my two cents. You should pm a themer such as Shane, at the moment though, there are cooler mods being tinkered and worked on much larger than simply say... a theme? So you may not get a reply right away is what I mean by that. Some of the themers are awaiting for Maddoggin to update his lockscreen mod but I believe they have the theming part down for the most part. Good luck.

I was thinking this myself at work today after i used an app from the market called "fake iphone 4s" to tell this kid who thinks he's the smartest computer wiz in the factory and i told him I was developing iOS for Android, Lmfao! then i said me and the other devs are experiencing calls dropping and other stuff but back to ya Q!

You could probably port it for personal use and not share if you know how but no one is going to port it for everyone as he made it very clear to not copy his images.
Not sure if it makes a difference, but it also say this in the op:
"It's impossible for me to make zip files for all phones/ROMs on xda, so please follow this simple guide to create the flashable zips yourself."
Wouldn't that make it OK for our themers to make us some flashables?

no, because thats what he's saying not to do. If you know how to port them for personal use then its ok but do not post a port on XDA of it to share.
the top disclaimer is referring to people stealing his work and using it in their roms and claiming as their own or making money off it. But porting it to our AOKP and posting it here isn't an issue with him.
it might be uncool to port it, but it's not like you could get in any trouble for doing it. xda is about sharing. and sharing is caring. and putting a meaningless disclaimer at the top of a thread has no effect. at least legally... they're not even original pictures. he definitely doesn't have a "license" for them either. i highly doubt he either registered or was even able to obtain a copyright on a single one of the images used. plus he's in Canada, so any Canadian protections don't apply once he's sharing them with people in the U.S. Just sayin..
good find.
Oooor, you just PM the creator and ask if its ok to port it, and tell them that you'll give them special credit, and show them your thread when you're done. Its what I did for Blazing Blue Flame

LUCID looks wonderful. I might have to look into porting some of these (after making sure it is OK with the themer of course).
Well, he does not want anyone creating and distributing flashables. So I'm not going to bother.

I asked him. He said he does not want any ports. I guess he expects everyone to decompile the apks and add the required xml/images.
I tried to say that... its a pretty clear statement at the top of the post.

That = ban. He says he has a license on his images, and he requests no public ports.
Want the theme? Port it yourself. Perfectly reasonable, especially if he wants to ever sell them(CM9 themes on market, for instance)

He created the themes, and I'm sure he put a lot of work them, so that is that.
The only problem I see is the troubles with getting the framework-res to recompile properly, however once the CM9 theme manager is merged and he releases the themes on the market or on XDA somewhere that will be a non issue.

i read through the thread, the op doesnt state anywhere not to port these themes, nor does it say not to make flashable zips. in fact, someone has ported the theme for the nexus s and nexus s4g and posted flashables to this post located in that same very thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25459699&postcount=58
that same person has stated that if you pull the framework-res.apk and the systemUI.apk from your rom of choice he will post a flashable zip in his free time.
so, as usual, misinformation and straight up lies abound on xda. if you are up to porting these themes to the epic, its a go, i think that all sonny wants is full credit for the themes and images, and that you link back to his original post like the other guy did.
sonny also states in a later post in the thread, that if you arent up to decompiling the apks yourself you'll need to find someone else to do it for you and "that person is not me."
... misinformation... explain why when tbob asked sonny if he could port the theme.. he denied him permission.
