[EASY][GUIDE] Install your own Custom Icons, Statusbar Symbols with Metamorph! - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

SO FIRST OF ALL, I DID NOT CREATE THIS APP , AM JUST SHOWING YOU HOW TO DO IT ,SO ALL CREDITS GOES TO STEPHEN (STERICSON) !!
As far as we know that, there various Methods for themeing your Phone but some of them take big expenditure, But not any more with this app. This is the most simplest way to theme your phone !
PLEASE MAKE A CWM BACKUP TO REVERT BACK IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES !!
Requirements:
A Rooted Phone with ICS
Latest Busybox (Just search for busybox installer in the market and install it!)
So lets get started
1) Download the app from this link http://www.mediafire.com/?esf9h3aevkjpjw5
Dont download it from the market because of some ICS compability Issues
2) Install it on your phone and open it. Click on start checks and then permit the SU permission.
3) That all with the phone, Now lets get to the Computer.
4) Go to http://droidpirate.com/category/metamorph-2/
for Icons and symbols
5) Download any icon, in my case ill be downloading a USB skin(just got bored with the orange guy)
6) Connect your phone to your PC, and open the mass storage
7) Now in the mass storage you will find a folder called AndroidThemes(if not create one,but make sure its written like AndroidThemes)
8) Now copy your downloaded zip file to the AndroidThemes folder
9) Disconnect your phone and open Metamorph

12) Click on your zip file and a message will be popped up, just close it,
13) Now click on Apply All and click continue
14) After it finished modding, it will ask you to reboot your device, just reboot it !
and you are done. In my case, my usb connection will be looking like this !
You can also use your own Icons by just repacing it in the zip file !
I hope you liked my Guide see ya

Any who click home settings more icons.Then you click the icons exit blah blah done. ^ This is just if you have open/ahome installed.

Bump .. Mediafire told me already 2 people downloaded it. If you download it please comment here or leave feedback on it thanks
Is this for non-root users? It is better for you to put this on the market if this is made for non-root users.
On XDA, there are tons of "N1" themed launchers like AnderWeb's AlmostNexus Launcher that you can flash via recovery and use as your permanent launcher. That means you don't have to always keep the home replacement app running = more RAM for the phone to use = faster phone.
Yeah its for non root users but I don't have 25 $ to put it in the market

[LOCKRING][ZIPTHEMER] MIL-DOT Reticle lockring for CM10 (others?)

Here's a lockring I made with the MIL-DOT reticle. It's white then turns red when you drag it on top of a target. It will work with CM Jellybean ROMs for sure (I've tested on CM10.1). Probably will work with CM ICS ROMs and maybe some other non CM ROMs as well but I can't say for sure as I've not tested them.
It's a zipthemer file, some instructions on how to use zipthemer at the bottom of the post.

***How to use Zipthemer***
note: you may need a ROM you have flashed in order to configure your edify script (this is the script that tells the recovery what to do when you run your update.zip file)
1. Install zipthemer from the play store! It's free!!
2. Open up the menu and click on update edify (you will only have to do this once)
3. Updating Edify screen (complete either Option 1 or Option 2)
- option 1: browse to the ROM you have on your phone and click it -- done
- option 2: click on download, then exit out of the screen, click options, settings, update script format, select your phone. If your phone isn't present, see option 1.
4. Download the zipthemer file in my post, and using a file explorer, move it to the "zipthemer" folder on your sd card.
5. open zipthemer again, click the "+theme" button, select the theme you want to apply
6. click "*output" button and pick the name you want for your update file (or accept the default). Leave the "-update.zip" at the end of the file name and "/sdcard/" at the beginning so it will be in your sdcard root directory and easier to find when you go to flash it.
7. click "build it!", it will ask you if you want to create a backup file, I usually do just in case so I don't have to re-flash the entire ROM to undo my changes if I want to.
8. Exit zipthemer, reboot to recovery, flash your new zip file, reboot system, enjoy!
more notes:
a. as always, it's a pretty good idea to run a nandroid anytime you play with your system (this is a do as I say, not as I do kinda statement)
b. A lot of these type of themes where some system files are modified or system apps are modified, it's good to do a wipe dalvik/cache
c. if you update your ROM to a new nightly/RC/stable, re-build the zipthemer file. It's likely that this isn't necessary, but unless you know just what the CM team changed it's probably a good idea.
Nice! :thumbup:

1) first of all be sure, that you want to add it to a samsung based rom
2) after that download the note2 mini rom from the rom section (you will find it with searching)
3) extract the .zip file, search the systemui, secsettings and secsettingsprovider (they are in the preload floder)
4) put them on your phone, replace the original 3 files, with the new ones (use root explorer)
5) you must make a factory reset, otherwise the secsettingsprovider wont do the job
6) enjoy, and dont forget to thanx
