no but they have gifs in the thread I linked in the OP. They are said to work with Desire and Evo series phones, and for function on non HTC phones all thats needed is some filename switching (from the little that i read)

This would be really awesome if someone could get these ported over.

Doesn't seem too hard. I will take a crack at it in a bit.
tried it with this beta theme i flashed but it didn't work. Not sure why. Maybe the drawable xlms need to be modified?

Looks really cool, gl to anyone who tries to get this done Would be awesome for sure.

Its just a copy and paste with probably some renaming of the images..... doesn't seem hard to incorporate at all.... I could do it but I don't know how to make a flashable zip but I could just move it to a aosp theme

I tried it. I didn't bother checking every single file name to see if they match but they all look familiar to me. you can google how to create flashable zip. I just used a theme and replaced all the icons but like i stated, it didnt work. I have swapped out icons many times before so I am sure the file names had variation.

Well did any icons copy over to the theme and flash right? That's what I do is just tweak the icons in the Res folders of the framework apks in themes and roms..... it must be conflicting names like you said.... ill take a look at it here soon and see what it is.... ^_^

[Q] Location of Menu Sub Text in framework xmls

Working on a gingerbread theme for DK28, not quite sure if i'll release it or not, but while dumping the pngs in and testing on my phone, I noticed the issue in the attached screenshot. The backgrounds for the icons when you hit menu from the homescreen are now black so the black text no longer shows up.
Anyone know where this text can be found in the framework xmls so I can edit it? Its the only issue I found and I poked around the xmls but couldnt find anything that jumped out at me, thanks for any help!
EDIT: correct png uploaded
bump - cmon guys, no help on this?
This is what I'll trying to figure out as well, its really pissing me off as its the only thing stopping me from releasing my rom. Im keeping an eye on this thread as well.

oh right, well its gotta be in framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi for sure, i changed out almost every icon in there, flashed it and voila, black menu backgrounds. so i dont know exactly what pngs were responsible. doing a quick search for menu though i get the following i put my money on the starred one:
menu_background.9.png
***menu_background_fill_parent_width.9.png
menu_submenu_background.9.png
so what is a menu smali file? i'll search around but i've never done anything with one.
EDIT: sounds like smali might be a little out of my league, lol. but i think i may have found something, testing now before i reveal it. then just one more thing to fix and i think its ready to go!
okay well i found what to do for xml edits here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9664604&postcount=77
but i did them and it doesnt look like it took. i've asked the OP of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=863860 for some advice and also on changing the notification text from white to dark as it doesnt look good on the lighter gray notification background in GB.
hopefully i'll have something up today or tomorrow, its looking great other than that!
looking good so far, even with a GB battery 1% mod! just 2 more little issues to fix!

[Q] Battery Circle mod for CM7

Been looking all day, but I can't find the one I'm looking for. Found plenty of circle battery mods that will work with CM7 RC2, but I'm looking specifically for one that looks like the first pictures posted in this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=724778
Anyone know of one that exists yet?
you can either make it yourself, wait for me or another developer to do it this weekend (your welcome ) or try shift_'s sculpted theme. it is pretty sweet. it is theme manager compatible so it doesnt need flahsing. jsut make sure to at least hot reboot after.
if you dont like it, i'll try to incorperate this mod into the frameworks this weekend. it'll be my first time going into the gingerbread framework, so i might see problems, but it hsould be fine.
Unfortunately I've yet to go in and figure out how to do things like this. If you're already planning on making one though, that's great. I can definitely wait patiently. You get many thanks from me.
Ok I can't get it done till saturday tough so it will have to wait. Then lets see if I'm allergic to gingerbread

HERE IT IS FOLKS
i have to admit, i couldnt figure the damn thing out, so i used the online kitchen and it worked very well. this is UNTESTED. it will only work with AMON-RA OR CWM 2.X. thanks again for waiting. this was built off of the framework-res.apk and systemUI.apk of nightly 26.

[Q] Themes for Unity 1.26 on G2/DZ

Not sure if this goes here or in Q&A, sorry if I'm wrong
I just found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15014591&postcount=183
and i had previously flash a theme that was for the Desire HD and it worked grate.
Will this be the case with a Incredible S theme, or do a risk messing to bad (brick and the sort) my G2
I'm still trying the doubleshot ROM, but once I put Unity 1.26 Id like to try this them, is it a high risk?
By the way, I can't seem to find themes made by G2/DZ people, do we lack theme creator? XP
We do lack themers for the DZ/G2. But if you using unity all of the themes designed for other handsets should work. Do a nandroid incase though. I have tried most of the DHD themes on my DZ and not had any problems

I would love to have the 4G icon instead of H like the U.S. Sensation, but I haven't found it yet. Any takers?

It would be fairly easy to create a flashable zip to change the H icon to a 4G icon. If I get the chance I will have a look into it for you.
Or modifying it your self wouldn't be to hard. You just need to extract the 4G icons from a Rom that you know has them. I can't remember exactly if they are in framework-res.apk or SystemUI.apk. then using adb pull the appropriate files from the phone, rename the .png's and swap them using 7zip and push them back to your phone

can someone let me know if this systemui.apk removes the H and replaces it with 4G? or if you get errors? I run cm7 and I'm not about to install unity just to test.

FYI, 4G icons are already in unity's systemui.apk... it should just be a matter of renaming them so that they are picked up in place of "H". this is what I did in the above post's systemui.apk

Confirmed here that it works, although it also seems to mess up my notification pulldown background. See attached screenshots. First screenshot shows the 4G icon. Second screenshot shows how my notification background was changed. Third screenshot shows how it should look (after I reverted back to my SystemUI.apk). It looks like the UI is using some other graphic in your APK that is intended for another, much smaller element, and scaling it up to fit somehow.
pmcqueen said:
nothing else in the apk was modified aside from deleting the H pngs and duplicating the 4G pngs, then naming them as the H's, effectively replacing H with 4G, so I'm not sure why status bar images would have been modified.

Hrm, interesting. I diff'd all the graphics between the two SystemUI.apk files, and aside from the 4G changes, all the other differences were with the so-called "9-patch" PNGs (http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/draw9patch.html):
Code:

Files SystemUI/res/drawable-hdpi/shade_handlebar.9.png and SystemUI-4g/res/drawable-hdpi/shade_handlebar.9.png differ
(etc., etc., etc.)
I compared this against the SystemUI.apk from Virtuous Unity 1.26.0, and the PNGs match what I have, not what is in your APK. So I suspect your source of the other PNGs (not related to the 4G changes) has somehow been tainted. Your 9-patch PNGs all have an extra 1-pixel border around the outside, with visible black bars indicating the stretchable areas (see the URL above for an illustration). Those are not present in the VU ROM. Those black pixels then get stretched and smoothed out, which results in the screenshot I posted earlier.
Here's the VU 1.26.0 SystemUI.apk, if you want to peek inside at the "*.9.png" files to see the difference: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2639253/SystemUI.apk
yeah, let me try from scratch again. give me an hour or so, about to eat lunch.
Good luck pmcqueen i hope it works! i will check back later! (have a nice lunch?)

hey, I already posted this in the Unity development thread, tell me if this works for u guys too. I used the zip from xboarders 4g icons zip and changed the systemUI.apk to the one that I modified (and works for me) with the 4g icons for unity. I just changed the names of the H and 4g png files and so far no problems at all.

Right, that should work, and is the same approach pmcqueen took. As long as your 9-patch PNGs are fine, this mod should work. Keep in mind though, this replaces the entire SystemUI.apk, which includes a ton of other icons and graphic elements. Anyone who has a custom theme in there will lose what they have.
The best approach would be to patch just the PNG files inside the APK, but I'm not familiar enough with Android themeing to suggest how to do that (aside from manually doing it).
Wait DaygosTommyT's zip file works correctly? no graphical issues with the drop down? im not going to have any other themes on my phone so would this zip work for me? all i want to change is the h icon to 4g... thanks? haha

[THEME REQUEST] Honey HD port?

Hi guys,
First post on the SGS2 forum after coming over from the Desire HD section. Got my SGS2 as an upgrade and am pretty impressed so far. Down to business...
I used to use this theme on my DHD
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1028813
Was wondering if any of the geniuses here could port it over so I can use it on my Galaxy S2?? It's an amazing theme and I'm sure would look great on the SGS2's samoled. Cheers in advance!
Good theme, it would be nice to see it on our SGS2
It would indeed, hoping someone can port it for us all. Have tried another of the Honeycomb styled themes in these forums but found them too overpowering on the blue colour for my liking.
Did you try to just install it? Seems like it has same naming for the graphics as SGS2 themes.
Try to make a back up first though.

I'll do a Nandroid and give it a try. Wouldn't think it'd work though due to it being based on HTC framework and SystemUI, can see this leading to a bootloop.
Yeah I suppose it will. You can port it yourself though, just download stock samsung theme, and this honeycomp and replace all images with same naming on framework-res and systemui. I suppose that would work.
That may be a better option. I'll give that a try later on and see what happens, cheers.
Ok, swapping the PNG's was a no-go - CWM kept telling me there was an error in the zip and refused to flash it :/
Anyone wanna have a go at porting it for me?

Are the bootanimations for aosp roms simple zip files? Or do then have to be zipped a certain way? I editted out the little circle under the Guy Faux mask that comes with the Infamous rom and I just get black screen on boot during the animation sequence. Without the edits the Infamous animation file works fine on aosp roms. But with my edits and rezipping the files it doesn't load at all.

They are simple zip files for AOSP. Make sure your picture file names are chronological. also check the desc.txt file to ensure it matches. as well as the part0 etc folders. there honestly isn't much to them, really strange how it wont display properly. and are you re-zipping, or simply drag and dropping the edited file to the zip?

I didn't change any of the other stuff like file names or anythinng. I just took the existing jpg's and edited out the part i didn't like and resaved them as the same file names.

what kind of format and compression were you using on the jpgs? Also, what program did you use to edit them? And what color depth?
Samsung Theme Designer seems easy but i keep getting a weird popup and cant advance to the next step

Windows Paint.
I wasnt doing anything more than adding a black box over top of a section of the animation I ddnt like. But I dont think that was the issue because I left some frames of the animation untouched and those didnt work either.

Lol it only took one picture to break mine. lol. i prefer png. But i think the issue i had with mine was something about layers. the kernel wasn't able to understand the image. Try using Adobe Firefox.

You should take video and make that into a boot animation!
Of course you'd never reboot your phone again....ever...
Good luck with the dentist. Do have someone take video of you leaving the office. From what Im told I was quite the entertainment for about 3 hours as the drugs wore off. I don't remember a bit of it. Though I kind of remember hitting on the nurse....

Yep feeling better today. And I got my bottoms pulled. They were impacted
And not sure if I actually posted it, but upload the pictures you want edited just zip them up. I'm pretty sure it's paint's save format that's breaking it.
