Peace all,
I hope someone here can assist me (not good at all making my own themes). I'm currently running xxBabiBoixx's Carbon ROM --which by the way is a fast EXCELLENT ROM, everyone on Evo should try it. He curently has a themed Rosie based on HTC stock's Rosie (Carbonized). For more space on my homescreen (for minimalist type view) I would like to use Manup's Alternate Rosie (files found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7812533&postcount=1023)
The reason why I'm asking for a Metamorph is because BabiBoi has implemented a whole set of nice mods including flip/fold animations, transparent notification shade and app drawer and modded icons for notifications. When I tried to flash Manup's Alt. Rosie it copied itself over top of his (i guess cause his ROM is heavily themed). I even tried to flash xxVirusxx's BACKTOSTOCK ZIP and it removed all of BabiBoi's modifications to his ROM.
Any help or tip to get this working on my phone would be greatly appreciated (I'm learning daily from being on this site )

I would like a metamorph of the 5 apps in a row from the latest ava rom. I like that rosie but have a few mods to the rosie I'm currently using, so if I knew exactly what file or edit I could replace so that I could keep most of my rosie.

thanks bro,
just wondering, is this the same as in ava's rom? (not that it matters much.)
only reason being that the text on the icons are well centered. thanks for the share though. im sure if it is not, i can extract the file i now know of. you are great!
again, thanks!

This is not, based on SteelH's request, I went ahead and did the mod, as I had done it many moons ago as well, on the Hero, though, as mentioned, I don't personally prefer .
Having said this, I did not spend a lot of time other then getting the icons to be 5 wide, so yea, there's probably some optimizing that can be done. Hope this gets you started in the right direction.
This should work on any Rosie based on the current Sprint 2.2.

Never happened to me, but I know I've seen posts with similar problems. Are you using Clockwork recovery? There are some things you can try, but, really, just do a search in the forums, you'll find a resolution. Also, did you rename the nandroid?

Neither. Sorry for hijacking the thread. My link was just for getting the app drawer to display 5 icons wide instead of 4, per rydah805's request.

I didn't look at the file, but I'd have to assume that the mod was done using a different approach then. PM me and we can continue the discussion. I have text removed from icons, so when I modded the XML I didn't notice an issue. If you let me know, I'll just fix in the version I posted, whatever the issue may be.
ok...now that the hi-jacking of my thread is complete---can someone please help/assist me in making a metamorph of manup's alternate Rosie that wont disrupt or change the theme i have now?

Okay, since I partially contributed to the hijacking of this thread, as my penitence, I'll help you out.
I don't use this Rosie, so if you can point me to where it is / what it looks like, I'll whip something up for you, out of nothing other than sheer guilt...

Thanks for the tip. Does this work on icons though? I messed around and couldn't figure it out. Are there instructions anywhere for it?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
it lets you customize all kinds of things related to your notification bar. If you're wanting to upload custom icons, I don't think you can do that, but you have a bunch to choose from.
If your rom is supported on the site, you can pick it from the list. if not, you can upload your framework-res.apk to have it edited
Any of these super chefs want to give us a definitive guide on how to add the CRT animations to a ROM?
I am more than comfortable with decompiling and modifying XMLs, but it would be nice to know where i am going.
Think of it this way... Whenever anyone else asks you about the animations, you can just link them to this thread and be done with it.
And yes, i have searched and there isnt much good information out there.
Even better - any way someone can create a flashable zip to add these to any rom? Now that devs are baking them into their roms,i dont see why it wouldn't be possible!

Try this flashable zip BUT before you go and do all of this, NANDROID backup your ROM......ONCE AGAIN, BACKUP your ROM.....because this is 50/50, it might work, I just tried it on sense 2.2 and it works like a champ!
Also, don't just flash it and NEVER come on here again....let me know if it does or doesn't because if it does then I'll start up a thread so others can use it....

I'm in desperate need of the stock apps in different dpi versions.
So far, I haven't found anything really that could point me in the right direction to get modding started myself.
Could someone point me in the right direction?
I would also be ready to help if someone wants to do this together.

Check out apktool and read about it in Samsung forums where I believe people did the mod to Stock Apps
It requires decompiling all the stock apps, resizing all assets to fit and then recompile back ... its a mammoth task especially for HTC

Because of the heavy framework that HTC uses and also all the images themselves need to be decompiled/compiled as they are not straightforward png files
