Themes/Morphs for AOSP 2.2 OTA Froyo

I've been trying to install Morphs or a blackbar for the new (rooted) OTA Update. I'm using the ROM that was (claimed to be in the thread) deodexed (look here: h t t p://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811620). I've either had boot loops or blank screens after boot. Have you guys managed to get any morphs to work? I'm just looking for a smooth black statusbar.

I'm guessing (since you didn't post a link to the theme) that it flashes services.jar in /system/framework, if you remove that and edit the xml accordingly it will work, but the time will remain black. You'll need to manually edit your services.jar to fix that.

I tried flashing themes that were CM6 compatible (Simplicity), and just the browser and the framework_res.apk. I haven't tried any others.

And those bootlooped? It's probably a much better idea to get support in the release threads for those themes.

Good idea. Thanks!

i just downloaded that build you posted a link too and it is still odex'd unless you deodexed it yourself or something

bump!
Sorry to bump this, but I'm also looking for a themed version of the 2.2.1 OTA rom, but in particular i want the black bar with white letters, such as the Community Hero Mix has. Is there something like this? Aside from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848791, because I prefer the green on black and a simple OTA rom

Make themes for kitchen

I have trying to get themes to run in the Doc and Stefunel kitchen.
This is a pretty demanding task. Many (almost all) themes can not be used as is due to a non standard resources.arsc and 9.png errors.
There is some theme pro's here.
We like to find a some kind of way to enable any theme inserted in a rom.
Any ideas to make this in a easy way?
/Doc

No one here any ideas? I already proposed someone make a theme kitchen and integrate it with Doc's rom kitchen but apparently all the smart guys that got time and would know how to do that bought a Desire.
Which takes us back at doc's original question someone knows a fail-proof way to integrate themes into roms without having to flash a post-install zip?

Hi Doc,
i know this isnt way you want, but probably it can work:
What about make some script, witch will do:
1) after flashing ROM and start android - reboot android to recovery
2) (i dont know if it is possible) make script for CWM witch will automaticaly flash theme and reboot to system
If Im wrong .. ignore this

I've never need a post-install script to put a theme into a ROM.
Except for the JPY Gingerbread, but me and XGX got that hammered out in the thread in the Captivate forum and it works just fine without a second .zip.

Hi, any link to point in right direction is most welcome

I've merely dropped the framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk into the /system/framework. And any other files like android.policy.jar that goes with it.
For JPY, I had to take a few extra steps:

[Theme][2.3.3][28/Apr/11][JVB] AOSP-gingerbread

JVH, JVO and JVP themes can be found in this thread!
I was using ock's gingerbread theme for JVK and really liked versions 1-2. I'm not really interested in "all in one" themes and prefer things to be a bit more modular.
This is a "from scratch" theme, decompiled with apkmanager with graphics from AOSP source.
Also likely to only work with deodexed roms I would assume.
What this does:
* Changes the images in framework-res and SystemUI, these include the window frame shape, status bars and various other graphics.
* Changes a few text colours to properly match the new graphics.
* For the moment, has AOSP stock battery mod. (not percentages).
What this will never do:
* Change your lockscreen.
* Add more lockscreens.
* Have the extended power menu. (iirc these are "unsafe" reboots anyway)
* Include the overscroll glow.
* Include the CRT off animation.
If you're after these features I recommend popping over to ock's thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1010324
But, but, but, I really like the overglow effect!
dhiru1602's stand alone mod should work with these mods: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1027935&highlight=overscroll+glow
TODO:
- Media scanner's entry in the notification dropdown is coloured wrong. (part of TW?)
- Recolour the data connection icon on the power menu.
- Odd browser combo box size error.
- Adjust xml based colours to match AOSP.
Screenshots
Always useful to have a backup when trying new themes, so there's an "uninstall" which will replace the files back to stock.
CWM3 Compatible Installs:
Main theme:
* Install theme - aosp-jvb-vX.Xs.zip
* Samsung stock JVB theme - stock-jvbs.zip
Lockscreen:
* Install AOSP lock - aosp-lock-jvb-s.zip
* Install Samsung lock - glass-lock-jvb-s.zip
MediaProvider: (SDCard scanner)

At present I'm not intending to skin the dialler or contacts. More or less only core system related.

It couldn't hurt to give it a shot just replacing them. Just backup your current ones.
Otherwise search this forum for skins of dialler and contacts.

If you're on JVK you probably shouldn't flash this. I believe they are a little different. (you may see minor graphic bugs, etc). If you pop over to ock's thread I believe v1-v2 were for JVK.

"E:signature verification failed"...any ideas?

in fact, i only want to make the signal and wi-fi bars when avalable green instead of the stock light grey.

@sargorn great job with this AOSP theme.. love it. Right now, I cant use the files you provided because I'm using a modded framework-res.apk which includes chinese. Im trying to get your look though. So far, I made the status bar black, but cant seem to get it right. Is it possible if I give you my framework-res.apk and systemUI.apk, you can mod it for me? Sorry to ask you such a big request...thanks

You're probably using the stock kernel? You need to flash a custom gingerbread kernel and/or custom rom (basically you need CWM recovery) This theme is only for deodexed roms, so if you just flashed stock via kies or otherwise this probably won't work.
For a deodexed stock rom check out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790
Or you can try a custom rom. Check the Development forum for those.

If you just want a minor change, can I recommend the UOT Kitchen?
http://uot.dakra.lt/
It's fairly easy to use (again, you need a deodexed rom for this), grab the framework-res.apk from /system/framework/ from your phone and the SystemUI.apk from /system/app/.
Choose whichever bits you want, then upload those two files and it will generate an update you can flash with CWM.
I think everything except the Boot animation should work on the galaxy s.

I can give it a shot, but without being able to correctly test it, it might be a bit hit and miss.
It's actually not so difficult to do yourself. There is a very good tutorial in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9978779#post9978779
For the images required I grabbed them from android aosp source, or you could simply decompile my framework-res with apk manager.

Tweaking a few things to match the AOSP xml, few colours, sizes, etc.
Will run it tomorrow on my phone and see if I find any issue then upload it if it's ok.

No problems with it, 1.5 is uploaded. Some new screenshots too!

sargorn, you somehow read mi mind with this them. I'm playing with framework pieces for weeks now trying to find the stock gingerbread look for SGS .
Your theme is looking excellent from all points of view.
Anyway ... please tell me what you did in order to fix the combo box bug in browser .. thanks.

[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

[THEME/MOD] Boeffla-Mod 4.1 XWJW5 stock+blue (ODEX/DEODEX) [20-04-2012]

Hi all,
this is the XWJW5 version of the meanwhile well-known Boeffla-Mod theme.
Latest updates:
Addon 3 now made public as many people were interested in using my ext4 remount script for Semaphore Kernel users running on ext4. Basically it adds commit times to the file system mounts which should in theory add smoothness to the phone and might improve battery usage slightly (nothing confirmed, just personal experience).
You can choose between the known "greenish" stock theme and a blue themed mod (my personal favourite).
Version history:
Version 4.1
Transparent dialer
Transparent contacts list
Semi-transparent power saving widget with green or blue bars
Deodexed roms now supported (however NOT tested by me!!!)
Addon1 (13-Toggle Mod) now availabe for extra installation
Addon2 (disable scrolling cache for smoother scrolling) now availabe for extra installation
Version 4.0
Stock and blue theme available
Battery icon with percentage numbers (green or blue circle)
Animated charging battery icons
Connection icons turn to green/blue when fully connected
Statusbar icons changes for blue theme
Extended power menu
Quickpanel icons (ICS style)
Transparency effects in pull down
Change overscroll glow to white for stock theme (blue for blue theme)
CRT off animation
ICS window animations
Autodetection of odex/deodex version to apply
All apks Zipaligned
In the pipeline to come in next versions:
13-toogles mod
ZaneZams add-ons
...more...
Just flash (in CWM Recovery) one of the attached versions, you do not have to care about odex or deodex - this will be handled by the installer automatically.
If you want to flash Add-ons, please flash one of the two main themes first, then apply the add-ons in the order of the add-on number:

Screenshots can be found in the thread for the XWJW1 version of Boeffla-Mod.
If you want to undo, just flash the rollback file in CWM and you are back to XWJW5 stock.
As always: Flash on our own risk! Make sure you have some space on /system left before you flash. I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones.
And on a very special request, I want you to know I used partially apktool (1.4.3) to do my mod. Also I used smali/baksmali 1.3.2. These tools have bugs as any other software of course, so it might come to unexpected side effects.
On top of that:
I understand, many people would like to have slight deviations of this mod, different battery icons, different overscroll glow colours etc. However, I honestly do not have enough time to fulfill all your special requests.
I build this mod only for my personal use basically, so it is like it is.
Thank you very much for your understanding.
If you want to still have different Battery Icons etc, I recommend you to use the UOT kitchen (http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen) with which you can do a lot of additional tweaking yourself.
Just extract the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk files out of the Boeffla-Mod zip and load it into kitchen. As soon as the new files are built by kitchen, flash the zip file after Boeffla-Mod and you are there.
Have fun.

Well, go for it, ZaneZam Looking forward to your add-ons again.
I do not know (somehow cannot find my crystal ball currently), but XWJW5 feels quite mature. So could imagine this is really the last official FW for our SGS from Sammy.
At least I will currently base all work on this rom now.

Hi Andi,
uff i'm feeling really handicapped with this 8 thx limit per day!
Hey i've lost mine too! Somehow nobody can find their crystal balls nowadays, strange... there must be a crystall ball snatcher around! hehe..
Ok i am looking forward to start but first i have to interview my filofax!

you need whole ROM or any specific files, i think u need systemui, framework and android.policy.
same problem of time i had, anyway if tonight i got time i will do it my self and mail u all files so you can publish it here
if u want any special mod then i try to do that also.
moral is either u help me or i help you, both are same

When the next mods ? :>

Hey there.
Andi, crt off doesn't work around here. Everything else looks fine as always. Thanks.
