I installed Red Angry Alien theme and only the icons came up. Nothing else. I wiped cach, dlvik and factory reset (3 times each) and nothing. I uninstalled the app and re installed it twice. but nothing.
any ideas?
Thanks a lot!
What ROM are you running?

ClockWorkMod Froyo.EC05
What version of CWM do you have? Is your Froyo.EC05 odexed? Is it the Stock Plus ROM?
One suggestion though is to try another theme. Maybe there is something wrong with the download. If other themes flash fine then that would be my suspicion.

Im running CWM v2.5.1.0
And Im not sure what odexed is nor what Stock Plus ROM is.
I did it exactly the same way as before so Im not sure whats wrong.
As you can tell, I dont know much about this yet.

When you say you only get the icons but nothing else. What else is there? Are you talking about specifically like the pulldown notifications? or something else specifically?
If you open the Phone app, is your phone themed? What about your keyboard? Besides that i think only your notification drawer gets themed.
Also, can you try a different theme?

No, I mean the main icons on the dock. The Phone, Email, Web, Messaging, and Applications icons. There are no other icons that are the same as the themed icons that did download. I cant even open up the phone app. When I click it, all it says is, "this specific application is not installed on you're phone"
Also, I just unrooted my device and I plan on trying to root it again. Now, is there anything else I should do? Ive been using CWM 2.5.0.1 should I use this one or another version?

I mean it almost sounds like the theme is not compatible with your Rom. Most likely due to your ROM having CIQ enabled and maybe the theme you're using does not. Just a theory.
If you're going to use an EC05 Based ROM my suggestion is to use either SRF 1.1 or the Bonsai ROM (google it). There are others too but that's just my opinion.
If i were you prolly the easiest thing to do is flash this in ODIN:
Slightly Modded EXT4 EC05 Tar Prerooted Deodexed Zipaligned Png Optimized - http://www.multiupload.com/A9VPX4G2ZW
And then flash bonsai or SRF1.1 over it.
And then flash one of the themes you saw that you liked.

These things are case sensitive. You are looking for:
/system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk
Right?
What rom are you running? If it is any sense based rom it should be there..

Bumping your own thread is the best way I know of to get people to ignore your question, especially when your bump is less than 30 minutes after your last post. If no one responds in a day or two then a bump is ALMOST acceptable, it's just good forum etiquette. (tip: posting any kind of progress, even if it's failed attempts, is a much better way to bump a thread. That way people at least know you are trying to solve the problem on your own)
Also, have you posted your question in the thread for the rom you are running? That's probably the best place to get relevant answers.
Although I am inclined to believe you are missing something, unless flipz changed the name of the apk for some reason.
Use ADB to "ls" your /system/app directory and post the output here. If you have the Sense style pull-down bar lockscreen then the lockscreen apk has to be there somewhere.
another option is at least in previous fresh roms in the fresh updater is a vanilla lockscreen flashable zip. yuoc an try seeing if it is still tjhere for 3.2 and flashing it to kill it off for you.
If you can't find it buy system app remover from the market. .99 cents and I'm running barebones on cm6 smooth as butter.. I hit 1937 today with stock kernel. Anyways it has two categories. System and user apps. Even shows the icons next to the names of system apks. Don't have to search for them they all are in a list.

Can you post a screenshot of the screen you are currently stuck with?
Is there a way to get this onto the Epic. I love the look of the all black dialer. Its sooo sexy but I cant find it anywhere. Is this possible?
If you want it that badly flash the gingerbread theme, otherwise no, the dialer . apk is too deep in the framework to change other than skins.
Yea...I've tried two themes and I cant get them to work at all for me. I flash them in Clockwork after doing the wipes indicated (cache 3x's, dalvic 3x's) and I even throw in a hard reset but when booting the phone back up I get a million fc's and then bootloops. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. I'm on a deodexed EB13 ROM with the Genocide OC'd kernal and the Vanilla lockscreen if any of that makes a difference.
The themes by Mysteryemotionz have the dialer your looking for. For those fc's I would just relash the theme. You are using themes specifically made for EB13, correct?

Personally, this is what I'd try (we're on a tangent!)
Open up a (compatible) theme you want to flash, with 7zip. Open the system/app folder, and delete all of the apks .. you can keep the folder.
delete any apps in /data/app , if there are any apks in there.
You should basically be left with the META-INF folder (don't touch that)
and the /system/framework/* stuff
So all you will be flashing is the contents of /system/framework/framework-res.apk and the twframework-res.apk
If this flashes, then it means you had some kind of problem with one of the 'themed' apps included in the theme. The basic themed UI elements are mostly contained in the framework and twframework apks anyway. But that's what I'd try first.
i love the stock dialer, it is so super cool. i dont get why you want to change.

Yes sir. They all state EB13 compatibility. I've tried reflashing a few times.

I'll try this. All I really care about is the dialer. Thanks!!!!!!!!!
yeah.. i tried putting that dialer in, kept crashing.
Best bet is just a full blow out gingerbread mod.
Didn't work for me. None of the themes are working in my favor. Darn it.
I've tried wiping everything then reflashing with no luck. All the themes are said to work with EB13 as well.
Damnit. Guess I won't be getting it lol

Ya, if u really want to get to the bottom of it, i would try flashing the theme on top of the clean rom, without any of your data. If it works, then you know that something in your 'data' is causing your probs.
At that point, you could explore alternatives like restoring from a titanium or mybackup backup.

Wondering if someone can help me. I'm looking to change my battery icons. Having a hard time finding them. Can I get a path and what I should do to change them? Can I just swap them out in a file explorer?
Thanks for any help.
What i am really looking to do is get calks battery percent in the unnamed rom. if anyone can help.
thanks
Sent from my SPH-D710
Ok i was able to extract the images from calks rom using apk manager but really dont know what to do from here well enough to try it. what would i need to do next to get the images in the unnamed file?
thanks
idk i extracted both and i cant seem to tell the difference however when i am using the roms i thought there was. who knows...
bump... I'd also like to know how to change my battery indicator. I want to have a numeric percentage up there. i don't want to install an app that adds a separate indicator either. My phone is rooted, and I'm hoping I can do it without installing a custom rom.
Gentlemen, all you have to do is download ROM Toolbox. Once installed, go to interface, then icon changer, there you can choose from a large variety of icons to replace the battery icon.

Awesome, thanks. I checked it out, and it gives a warning that not all the battery icons will work with all phones, due to different increments. Anyone know if the ones with 1% increments will work with the Epic 4G Touch?
It also says that I should do a nandroid backup first, so I'm gonna figure that out before I try out the icon change. The first "how to" that I read for doing a nandroid backup says that I need to install ClockworkMod Recovery, and to do that, "In ROM Manager, tap ‘Flash ClockworkMod Recovery’". I can't find any mention of ClockworkMod Recovery in ROM Manager. I'll look for an alternate way to install CM Recovery, but I thought I'd mention it in case I'm missing something in ROM Manager.

Pretty sure I'm using it right now. Can't remember who made it, but I'll try to find the thread.
That's basically stock but with XXKTK right? Don't exactly know what that means, but mine is the same but is CWM flashable and works on EXT4, and is pre-rooted with certain tweaks that improve performance.

Nope! Just like regular stock, only better. Sometimes though when you press the home button and you were doing a bunch of stuff it'll take a moment for your homescreen icons and widgets to show, but I think that's just the device and not the ROM. Keep in mind though that it really is just like regular stock; you'll still have the Samsung Apps bloatware and the author had to delete Swype and Maps to make room for CWM application, but if you really want them Maps is available in the Play Store and you get the Swype apk easily for free.

Hi! I'm new and I need help. I've just bricked my rooted S3.
My S3 was rooted with the official firmware. I did it last year, so I'm not sure which firmware was I on.
I was just messing around Titanium Backup and I've accidently frozen the TouchWiz launcher app. I thought it was just a junk app, but I was wrong. The S3 screen turned black, so I rebooted the phone and now I'm always stuck with the Samsung boot logo forever.
I can get into Download mode or CWM recovery. I heard that I could fix the S3 by putting the TouchWiz apk back into the system folder or something... But I don't know how.
I guess I can reflash but I don't want to lose data... How stupid of me not to backup data before.
Thanks in advance
Ok, I've managed to fix the brick problem by using ADB to push/install SecLauncher2.apk into the system folder. However, I'm running into a new problem right now. I constantly keep getting "Unfortunately, TouchWiz Home has stopped." errors and some blank screens.
Did I install the wrong HomeWiz launcher...? Or is it because of the conflict between this HomeWiz launcher and the frozen HomeWiz launcher from titanium backup?
Any solution...?

Go here, download either the odexed or deodexed rom, flash it in recovery and you'll be good to go.

Also, just fyi, if you can get your phone to turn on at all then it's not bricked......borked, sure, but not bricked. :highfive:
Dirty flash a rooted stock Rom or a custom one. TW based. Do NOT wipe anything.
You also can install another launcher like Apex or Nova and set right permissions to the launcher and unfrooze in TB.

Thanks, but my S3 isn't Spirit. Does it matter?
Well, I've just uninstalled the TouchWiz app via ADB and installed a different launcher called GO or something. No more error now, but the TouchWiz app is missing in Titanium backup (the one that I frozen)... Is it possible to find the touchwiz APK somewhere else? the one that actually works.
I've never installed a custom ROM before. So, can you recommend me which one to use? I'm all for battery efficiency.
