[REQ] Epic / Galaxy S

i was wondering now with numerous galaxy s phones out if its possible to get a galaxy s rom? I know their are themes such as this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769840
and you can always install the touchwiz launcher, but id love the galaxy s rom for things such as the drop down bar with all the toggles, the look (the theme does a decent job covering that)
and a fully working bottom dock, that rip sometimes doesnt work perfectly.
idk if its possible or if it ever will be?
also (I havent tried it yet, looking for a epic 4g dump, but is it possible to install the galaxy s camera apk on an evo?)

The TouchWiz UI is what you're looking for but I don't think the widgets or notification bar have been ported yet.

well is the touchwiz UI the apk file?
because the key things im looking for are of course the look (like the theme) but the main functionalities im wanting are the notification bar, bottom dock bar and camera rip if it can support the 8mp cam

The touchwiz apk will give you the bottom bar.
Nothing has the notification toggles yet, but I know someone on team douche is planning to implement it.
Camera will probably be too different, and at best we might see a theme.

camera apk would be fantastic...and the lock screen too...serious improvment over evo there

Camera would be nice itll be more than just an apk I'm sure...
Touch wiz is pretty ugly imo..

+1 I have both phones and compared side by side Sense is much nicer imo

comparing both side by side touch wiz comes out a loser to sense.
However, the task bar drop down with 4 radio control buttons is something I anxiously await!

Sense and Touchwiz are a no no... Launcher Pro is where its at IMO. I immediately installed LP on my buddy's Epic and he couldn't be happier.
I'm just pissed the super amoled does 16MILLION colors and we only get 65,000. Boo. Did i mention it also requires no power for black color? damn battery life, got me again.
What i want from the Epic? I want the ability to change the brightness by dragging left/right at the top of the screen by the notifications bar. BOOM, that would be clutch!

[Q] Themed Signal Bars????

Does Any one know if its possible to change the signal bars from 6 to 4 like in the other galaxy s models.....i think the 4 bars looks way better than 6....thank you.

Yes its possible. The phone reports more than those four steps so you can just have it show four bars full for 5 and 6 too, or any other combo you'd like. The images for them are in the framework-res.apk I believe. Not sure anyone wil do that for you until official froyo though...try it yourself if your adventurous.

The Elegant Steel port that I did for 2.1 has only 4 signal bars. When 2.2 is officially released I will port it to that as well.

Certainly, inside of any theme .zip is a file called framework-res.apk. You can rename the .apk to .zip and open it in any compression tool, such as 7zip or WinRAR. If you would like, you can decompress and unpack this to a folder for ease of use. There are tons of guides on XDA that will help you with this, I would suggest taking a look at some of the guides made by Dreamsforgotten as they are incredibly detailed, and you can find links to them by looking at the sticky wiki thread. Once you get inside of the framework-res.apk, you will see a folder called "res" and inside of that, another folder called "drawable-hdpi". This is the heart of the framework, and the majority of the images that you see on your phone are contained within. The status bar signal icons are named something like "stat_sys_signal..." etc. Just open em up and edit them to your liking, or grab some images from somewhere else to replace them. Hope this helps, feel free to pm me if you need any more help!

Yup no problem. There are multiple different sets of signal bars, on for roaming, 1x etc. Your best bet would be to replace them all, unless you can discern which is which. Look for this in the name "_r_", and if they have this then those are for roaming icons. All others should just be the normal signal.

Nice, welcome to the world of theming Just an FYI, you may have to change some things again when the official froyo release comes out, there is quite a difference between all three of the leaks, leading me to believe the OTA will be different as well. Glad it worked for you, feel free to ask away someone around here will be happy to help!

The actual images for the signals start with zz_ if I remember right.

The clock color is controlled by services.jar. You need to edit smili. some of fonts are controlled by the xml files in the colors folder

You need to make your own images per pull the ones you like from the different themes. Replace the images in the framework

[REQ] Change Stretched "3G" Icon to Normal

I'm not sure if this annoys anyone else, but I really hate the stretched out 3G icon that Verizon put into their ROMs to replace the EvDO label. Is there any way to replace this with the standard size 3G label that shows when connected to UMTS networks or just go back to the old EvDO icon?

if you are talking about these two icons, it's very easy to make a MM theme or .zip to change this. I actually love the bigger 3g icon.

Upload the SystemUI.apk from your rom and Ill change it for you... I Personally like the MIUI 3g Icon!!!

That's the one! It just looks half-assed to me, especially when they have it right in other non-HTC Android devices.

Here ya go. Thanks in advance!
I don't mind the MIUI ones, but I prefer the HTC...
Edit: I unzipped the file to check out the contents, and I have a few more favours if they're doable. I would like it to show the 3G+ icon when on Rev. A, 3G for regular EvDO, and the other ones left as is. Also, would it be possible to use the six bar signal icons instead of the ones with four?

I am in the RMK GB ROM with the latest patch... I'll look up the OUT kitchen. Thanks!

So UOT has been down every time I've tried to work on it, and I can't seem to find the right XML file in which to change which icon gets referenced by Rev. A... Can anyone help?

That is the 3G LTE icon, somehow they got switched. Maybe this is what VZW wants you to see now.

Yeah, I discovered that in the PNG file name, but that makes no sense at all since LTE isn't 3G, and this device isn't even capable of LTE. Ugg. Verizon kills me sometimes. I actually got this sorted last night in UOT (I think), but then I couldn't find my ZIP for pickup so I never got to see if it worked.
I would love to just use MIUI but it appears that I lose Visual Voicemail with it.

[Q] StangRoms Desired Inc HD 3D mods?

Are there any mods for the Desired Inc HD 3D rom? I already used the patch for the stock 4x4 app drawer from his mod list but I don't like the 3g and signal bars he made. I went to themikmik.com and saw he had mods like 4g LTE and a 4 bar signal bar but when I tried to download them the sight it took me to said the downloads had been removed. How can I get mods for the top bar icons like 3g, signal bars, and battery?
By the way StangRoms Desired Inc HD 3D Rom is great. You should try it.

I'm too new to the forum to post on the developers page. Xda told me to post on here for questions.. I figure I'm not allowed to ask questions like this within his forum because xda says its for developers only.
