[Q] Theme questions - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone I am using this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941055 it's the elite series III. I love everything about it I just for the life of me cannot figure out how to change just the icon in the titlebar. Alarm clock, battery status, 3g and 4g symbols. Can someone please assist. I unfortunately am new to this site so I cannot simply post into Koni's Thread and ask there.
What can I do to replace those icons?
I am not a newbie I bricked this phone many times but was able to fix it I have rooted thunderbolts, samsungs, and a few evos I just have no experience with theme stuff yet.
I would love to have the stock htc icons or even perhaps the cynagen mod icons those were awesome.

im not sure on sense but i know on other ROM's they hang out in the SystemUI in system/app if they are not in there then they will be in the HTC resources file in system/framework

on this one the icons for the title bar are all in com.resources.apk and the theme stuff is in framework.res.apk

i take it you found them then?

finding them was the easy part but every theme i download doesnt have a com.resources.apk so i have no clue how to find for example a new 4g icon and replace it.

sorry for bumping an old thread, but i searched and this is the most relevant thread title for my problem
Can anyone explain how flashing theme work? Because I tried flashing 3 different themes but nothing changed after rebooting. I did everything as told, wipe cache, dalvik etc but the theme just wont change. Is there something I should do to apply the theme after I flashed it?
Thanks before

Awesome man. Maybe if you could get the launcher bar for the app part? And the text on the apps, the white does not blend well with the grey.
Great work though, I miss my g1 so much already
wow, that app bar is great !!!!
BTW, the white letters doesnt seem to go well xD .

My bad i meant 3.6.5 in my post
I like it. Hope it is released soon.
i think you should have made time in notification bar white instead of leaving it black though.

services.jar, just copy it over from the hero theme and it should work

Not quite so easy, make sure you get the right services.jar (from a theme that is currently compatible with the 3.6.5 builds). The services.jar have changed to include the reboot on press.power and pull down the status_bar while having the lock screen.
My theme has a good services.jar, and if you want to change additional text: search for edit + xml. ; )
Nice start. Def gonna keep my eye on this one. I like the tray and some of those icons.
Rly good job, hope to see some final job of this if someone can port SMS Widget and Dialer too ( Music and Keyboard are already ported ) Cyanogen Mod and if this theme will be finished im gonna go back to 1.5 from Sense UI .
I posted the following in the "Helpful Thread - Read before clicking new thread" sticky the other day but apparently, I'm the only one who reads stickies on xda. Maybe someone in here can answer my question and I apologize if I offend anyone by posting this in the wrong thread...
*I got a question about installing themes. What is the proper procedure of installing a new theme after you've already installed a theme? The reason I'm asking is because (first of all I'm running Cyanogen's v3.6.5) I installed the HTC Hero v1.4.5 theme yesterday and everything went well. Then I wanted to see what the PrOdigal Sun theme (Orange Cyanogen_Mod V3.4.x, V3.5.x and V3.6.x version 2.8.) would look like so I just flashed the theme onto my phone (without wiping first-didn't think I had to or was supposed to) and I kept getting force closures after force closures. I then re-flashed the HTC Hero theme back onto my phone and everything seemed fine until I opened the drawer and saw that I had the icons of the PrOdigal Sun theme instead of the HTC Hero icons.
Long story short..I had to re-flash cyan's rom again the re-flash the HTC Hero theme. Didn't wanna try the PrOdigal Sun theme again because I wasnt sure if it was compatible with cyan's rom even tho it says it is. Thanks*
whens the eta for a beta version of this theme
i wanna try this out!
What do you mean "switched to aHome"?

ahome is a homescreen replacement, instead of using the regular homescreen that comes stock with android.
he's making this theme thru "ahome" which allows the icons to be at the bottom where the "menu bar" is removed.
l3wish said:
I"ll be working on a Palm Pre Theme for Cyanogen 3.6.5 Build. Like the i said on the Title: "Palm Pre Home Theme" for now just home screen, icons and few drawers.
Okay I switched to aHome Since the icons are at the bottom!!
here is my progress

I'm pretty sad about the aHome switch. I have problems with aHome. Can you post the icons in a .zip and your launcher as well. I really want to make a private them with that app bar and those icons.

UOT Kitchen

Hello people. I'm seeing alot of battery mod threads but if you want a little more customisation head over to the UOT kitchen and bake your own framework/system ui.
I did it yesterday and it worked perfectly. You just need clockwork recovery and your away.
Link : http://uot.dakra.lt/
Be sure to head over to this thread and hit thanks. Mendozinas put in alot of work :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=990829
I'm just putting this out there for people new to android or that don't know about the kitchen.
Its a great tool!
Enjoy!
Great heads up, i see ti now works with stock ROM's as well, wish they would add the CRT effect though.
this is a good website but unfortunately all that it changes for me is the battery icon and nothing else on status bar or notification area, i am confused whats up with it, its not just this its every theme i try to install does the same
well, the main prob with kitchen and our phones (S series and S2 too) is Touchwizz.
modifications via kitchen only affect framework-res.apk ;touchwizz needs modifications on twframework too.
knowing this, you can still use kitchen for :
-battery icons.
-notification icons
-glowing (at least for sliders bars and a part of the pop-up windows IF they aren't managed by twframework ).
haven't tried mods on status bars yet with my S2 but they were ok with my old galaxy S so it's probably the same.
P.S :
as always with themes, don't forget to wipe cache and dalvik cache after applying it viaCWM
hope it helps
Can someone provide me framework-res.apk and systemui.apk from stock KE7? Thanks.
How to submit it? I selected what I needed, uploaded framework-res.apk and systemui.apk but when I click Submit button nothing happens!
OK, I figured it out. But I can't select 'Transparent Status Bar' only, I don't want any modifications on status bar but just to make it Transparent! Maybe it's not allowed!

Can you choose status bar then not put a tick in the box for icons?
That should work.

Well the Transparent Bar is not working for me. Just for me I just selected only Transparent Bar and nothing else, but it's the same damn black status bar in the end
Try with ADW launcher for the transparent statusbar and disable wallpaper hack
Hey all,
Just having an issue with UOT kitchen ever since I flashed to Lite'ning ROM 1.4 on KF1. Getting SHTF errors every time I try to cook files now, anyone else having this issue?
I created my first theme and it worked, however i lost the screen capture feature, does anyone know why?
Hi mendozinas,
Because i have changed my phone to GS S2(i9100) and would you please tell me this version UOT Kitchen whether support GS S2(i9100) + SpeedMod SGS2 [K1-T31 CWM4 CIFS ROOT] ?
Thanks!
I've cooked my battery icon for xxkg1 2.3.3 but i'm asking if is it possible to use the "SCB with %" (Version C, New charger for example) and hybrid charge animation.
Thanks!

Ain't you supposed to upload the twframework.apk along with the framework-res and systemui? I did and everything changed, battery, signal, wifi, alarm, menus, pop ups, font, everything I told it to its changed everytime.

Hi all, hope your well.
Thank you directing us to the kithen. I have tried to use but seem to have an issue. When I select a mod, and click generate preview, it doesnt do it. It tries to generate it but then just times out. Anyone else had/having the same issue? Am I missing something or could it just be my internet?
Everything else works fine on my internet.
Thanks in advance guys!!
EDIT: Sorted. It just started to work.

[Q][REQ] ICS 4.0 Icons on Calkulins TW

ive searched and didnt find what i was looking for and if someone already asked this i didnt see it... also mods if im asking in wrong place then just move it....
Im running Calkulins rom v1.0 which comes with a custom TW launcher and i would like to add the ICS icons . I know theres already a ics icon pack available but i need to install a custom launcher like ADW,LP, or GO but i want to keep TW . Also Overstew has a ICS theme that is compatible which looks very nice but i like the way the drop down notication looks (transparent) and the system icons i.e. Wifi,Bluetooth, GPS, Sound, 4g...
So is there a way to do this just add the ICS icons maybe a flashable zip or something or could i open up a theme erase what i dont want?
TIA to anyone that helps

Open up my theme and remove the systemUI.apk from the app folder. Then, just delete the entire framework folder. Then flash.
will the launcher still have the 5 dock icons?
thanks for the quick response

Signal Strenght Mod

hi. where can i find a different signal strenght icon mod? the stock one is fairly lame.
downloaded a new batt. and alarm mod from elsewhere on this forum, and they look great. not everyone wants to flash a different rom just to get a different looking icon. where are all these little mods kept? there must be hundereds.
Do you mean a theme?
And you've also made duplicate threads.

You want a signal icon .
I said and i shall make it easier to understand that there is not a repository of single flashable icons .
Someone will modify stuff and make a flash able theme or stuff like a battery icon .
Or you modify it yourself in the custom rom .
jje
i can read into your choice of wording that you have a endless supply of patience - thank you. i found more or less what i will stick with.
u ccan try rom toolbox pro or uot kitchen
You should give UOT Kitchen a try, it has a lot of content to choose from: http://uot.dakra.lt/

[Q] ViperRom Theme questions

Hi Guys,
Is there any where with a guide to applying the awesome themes available for the Viper rom? Just a little worried that i will mess things up. On another note when i try to apply status bar themes from the hub some of the icons refuse to change, namely the venom hub icon and the wifi icon. Am i doing something wrong?
Thanks for your help.
Bigguss
Hi Guys,
Not normally in the habit of bumping my own posts but does no one have any suggestions here? I have flashed the dark one theme via recovery and still the status bar icons for the Wifi and Viperhub refuse to change to anything but the stock ViperOne icons?
Bigg
Searching really is your friend.
The answer lies here
