I'm sorry , i'm on sleeper rom odex 2.03 , i'm looking to make my signal strength bars green , i cannot find instructions on how to do this and any files people normally list always change the 3g icon as well. Uot kitchen doesn't seem to change this on my phone. I found one file that changed it while leaving the 3g alone but it had other things changed that i don't want edited. Any help appreciated

You can't theme an odexed rom that your biggest problem right there it must be deodexed and them uot theme kitchen will work like a charm.

UOT kitchen worms first. It doesn't add legendary era at all unless you based it off of the legendary rom framework...
In Soviet Epic forum, clockworkmod root you!

i tried uot kitchen, but i think there odex support is limited because it won't change the signal bar color. thanks

[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 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

[Q] i want 4 signal bars like the htc incredible for my evo

I have searched everywhere trying to find a way to change the signal bars. I want either the four bars like the dinc or the five bars that show up before they chnge to six. I tried metamorph but it wasn't working right for me. i just really hate the six bar look. I'm currently on mikfroyo 4.3 and really like everything about the rom and only want to change the signal bars everything else is perfect.
Try CM7? I am running it and I have a 4 bar signal icon...

You'll have to edit some PNGs in your framework. Although its not really 4 bars, it will just appear that way.
You can find the zip of your rom that you flashed, mikfroyo. Open it with WinRAR, or something similiar. Look in /system/framework/ for com.htc.resources.apk. Extract that to somewhere you will remember. Then open up that framework file with the same program you used above and look for drawable-hdpi. Look for the cmda radio signal pngs and swap in the ones you want. If you want to only use 4, then you can use the same signal for a few. Then put that drawable-hdpi folder back in the /system/framework directory from your ..resources.apk. This will overwrite the old one. Then push it with ADB. If you're not familiar there are a bunch of guides on xda here.
I have seen a couple themes (one of which I made a while back) for sense using the gingerbread status bar icons and those themes usually do the edit mentioned above to make it appear as 4 bars even though it is reporting more. I can easily whip this up for you if you need help, I just need to know exactly which ROM you are using.
Thanks for the replies. I have tried cm7 and I just can't get used to the stock android look. I just really like sense and the mikfroyo roms.
I am on mikfoyo v4.30. It would be awesome if you could help me out with that. I want to learn how to do the editing but I need to find a way to do it with my macbook.
How many does it have now and what color are they?
it has six bars and they are green
Im not running that ROM so I cant test the colors or look of it compared to the rest of the ROM but here is my best shot at it. Just flash that zip from the recovery screen and always make a nandroid backup first.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3000044/KspecKustom-HTCresources_for_Mik4.3.zip
Man I really appreciate that brandnek that looks a 100% better than the 6 bars. It looks great it's exactly what i was wanting

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!

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!

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.

If I didn't have so many things going on at the minute. I would do it. If someone hasn't offered to do it in the next few days I will do it. How does that sound?
Actually, the fact that you consider it i actually appreciate it so much. i dont know why, but this theme really hard to pull themer's attention. this theme not good? hoho~~
but hey, of course, your call. i would have personally PM you at first, but it would be like taking advantage of you. so i posted here.
Thanks!
I like it too...maybe ill merge...whenni have time that is.....but yeah....will look at more screenshots and if i like it i can adopt it
I can take a look. I have already ported this for Luca's FroyoMod rom for the milestone.
Attach the framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from Cog 1.51. I don't want to download the whole rom for it.

thanks guys for considering!
The theme looks awesome. A port will be highly appreciated to cog rom.
Well, I have a problem here.....download links from original thread are down, and in neither one of your downloads provided at this thread SystemUI.apk is there.....
you dont want framework-res.apk themed only, what u refer as icons on status bar, some of them are on systemui.apk
I am not familiar with this theme...maybe providing links to download a themed systemui.apk will be helpful?
thanks.
I will have to replace the battery icons in the theme. I cannot use the ones in the Leedroid one because they have only battery icons for stock %'s while Cog has 1% icons. I will use the revolution battery icons from UOT kitchen recoloured and resized.
Rest seem to be ok. I will send you a pm with the link when done. You need to test it for me.

this theme is from the froyo days. Gingerbread roms are introduced with branched SystemUI and framework-res so thats why no systemUI in there.

All buttons have been redone, H+ / 4G / Wimax in revolution style. Notification buttons are the same. The green goes well with the theme. Background is changed.
I will give you 2 variants. One with stock revolution battery icons ( only 0,10,20,40,60,80 and 100 ) and one with 1% battery icons.
You should get it in a couple of hours. I am at work now.
In the meantime, if you want to look at the icons, download the apk from the link below,extract the /Res/drawable-hdpi folder and have a look at the icons.

[Q] Theming in Nils' 3.5 v2.2

I managed to get my battery and a few of the icons I wanted to switch. Unfortunately, the 3G and Signal icons are the same, and I'd love those to change to the Steel Blue pack from the UOT kitchen. I kind of enjoy the wavy bars lol. Either way, anyone know what exactly I need to change doing it with like ninja/metamorph manually? Tried changing a few, but nothing has seemed to do it for me, so not sure which set I need to change in this rom.
I believe that the signal bars used are in SystemUI.apk. You may want to check there, and try using 7zip to do that.
