I have ported the famous theme, Minimal Matte onto our galaxy s.
it is orignally designed for the android 2.2 froyo and have ported it to android 2.1 (near abouts). It isnt exactly the minimal matte but is most like . screens are below.
Orignal Concept by: shiftedx
BUT made by : webstar1
Includes:
*Full Framework
*Launcher Pro (Themed)
*Geniewidget
*Skinned Swype QWERTY Keypad
* and more!
If you like it, please support me by donating below, ill be doing more ports and maybe even a custom rom .
Tested on a European JH1 Firmware with root
Download
Donate
EDIT: Ok so people are having problems flashing this:
The way i did it:
Downloaded Minimal Matte by webstar 1 directly to my phone
booted clockworkmod recovery and chose install zip not apply update.zip
then navigated to download/minimal matte
once its installed rebooted and voila, its worked.
im using a JH1 with root access.
make a nandroid backup before applying.
ive flashed this 5 times now and have had no problems
Just in case, THIS IS FOR ANDROID 2.1 not 2.2
EDIT: I forgot you also need a deodexed rom, here are some to flash:
Doc's RomMod
MoDaCo Custom Rom

Yup, ur free to post themed free apps (unless the developer has issues with it). But paid is always a No.
Btw:
INSTALL PROCEDURE:
just flash it with clockwork mod recovery or rename to update.zip and flash in backup mode (vol up+home+power when phone is turned off)

i get error applying the it via stock recovery
will try it with clockwork recovery
i am using clean jh1 with root
thanks anyway
*strange thing works through clockwork recovery
Black screen when rebooting. Forced to reflash in JM1new through ODIN.
What I do:
Downloaded Minimal-Matte-By_Webstar1.zip
Renamed it update.zip
Placed at the root of the SD
Launched clockwork mod from Rom manager
Apply update.zip
Reboot
Black screen! -> Reflash in JM1new + backup
What I do was the right approach? This is the first time I try to install a theme.

I don't know then whats wrong.I'll flash this on a stock jm1 and see what happens.
Try using theme porter to port the theme.

I know what might of happened, I have removed the bootscreen of samsung galaxy s where the S is made by tiny dots fusing. Basically if you flash this, I think it might wipe the boot screen as well so after flashing this, let the phone work for 10 minuets and the phone should definatley launch. You can get the bootscreen back by installing ryanz one click lag fix and the app had an option to restore bootscreen. Do that then uninstall app.
Try again but give phone time to work

Hi, sorry for my english i'm french
I waited for at least 30 minutes during the black screen but nothing happened. The black screen occurs after the animated galaxy S logo. The menu and return keys are lit during the black screen if I press them.
Has this worked for anyone at all

So was this theory proven correct?
I tried three times but it never worked (black screen). The last time I tried with a fresh installation: install the JM1new, root, installed rom manager, flashed clockwork mod, installed thre theme. Result still the same...
Use theme porter and see if it works
I think u must have a deodexed rom
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
it worked for me with clockwork recovery
here are the steps i did
1. download I9000TGYJH1
2. download root/busybox @samdroid
3. flash I9000TGYJH1 with repartition
4. apply root
5. install clockwork recovery
6. download this rom
7.flash it with clockwork recovery
so you dont need a deoxed rom...
my guess is that it needs a jh1 rom
Launcher Pro uses an activation method to enable plus, you can include it freely.

dont know if this has been up, but i just last night was going through som forums and got the knowledge of that u can use custom animation transitions,
i couldnt realy find anything that was cool but i searched around anyways.
got a hold of this site
http://androidforums.com/droid-x-all-things-root/226604-how-mod-custom-transition-animations.html
where u can watch vids of some transitions.. and at the bottom u can download them.
i just downloaded the gingerbread theme i use and made copys of it
and open those in winrar and put the anim folder in the rar files in the res folder of the files and used CWM to apply those.. and all of the transitions seems to work on my galaxy s. i use the "Fly In and Flip Mix (from Fab's Apex)" on my phone right now and it rocks with darkys 5.2 rom, no lags or anything.. rly awesome.
so yeah thought it would be cool for people that do custom themes and roms and such to have som cool transitions

Ok erm.. silly question but how was i supposed to pull the framework-res from /system?
Cus i pulled it using root explorer n i erm.. effed it up n gona have to flash a new rom cus nothin shows up after the splash screen when rebooting.
Nice !! gonna be very usefull
Tried on JPU?
Anyone tried this for DOC XXJPU UltraSlim V3.0.1?
Tried it but no success so far. It boots but gets black and vibrates ever so often. Guess they might be ROM Specific? ( I added a lot of extra stuff so I just want to verify if it might be the animation)
Edit: Still error even without the animation so i probably FUBAR somewhere else.

i copy the framework-res with root explorer and apply the files the just copy it back and restart and it should work.
but how i also did was taking the captivate gingerbread theme wich works on my i9000 an add the animations in the theme framework before i apply it through CWM recovery

i use it with the darkys gingebread jpu rom and it works great for me.
perhaps u did something wrong?
as far as i got it those animations should work with any 2.2 rom for any phone if u make it right.

I moved the framework-res.apk to sd-card so that i could connect phone to compter and and complete the process but once i moved the apk to sd card, i started getting force closes and eventually the screen went black (im not using a custom rom)
Should i have copied it instead of moving?
Im about to flash JPA with odin unless there's a fix?

ofcours u should have copied it since its a file for all the resources in your rom!
u can use adb to put the framework-res back again just do some google-foo
try out "how to adb framework-res" or something. should work.

What boot animation are you trying to use? Post the link.
Most of them are flashable if they are in zip format, you do that through recovery. If the file is PC36IMG.zip though, that's through your boot loader.
Also what recovery are you on?

its alright, i really just want a rom that has close to outstanding battery life, then i want to be able to change to my favorite boot animation and a nice lockscreen and has tethering that works mine isn't working.

its just droid x one, i want with volume, and i dont get what you mean by what recovery? i have clockwork recovery when i go to recovery and ****
Clockwork recovery is your recovery. The name "recovery" is a little misleading personally but whatever. Anyhow, I dont think it's possible to get sounds on your boot animation since you are using miui (aosp roms don't have it built in). I think there is a thread around here about getting them, I just don't know where. Search for it if you like.
To get the actual animation though, just put the bootanimation.zip file on your sd card, not in any folders or anything. Then go into your recovery (clockwork), and flash bootanimation.zip from there. No need to wipe anything usually.
The instructions listed on that thread you linked are for doing it from your computer, a little more complicated than mine.
Sent from my hand with XDA Premium installed
will try thanks
said that installiation aborted, can you recommened a rom to use? i'm still searching for a fav
MIUI lets you change boot animation and sound through the Theme Manager. The files are stored in different locations than on any other rom. If you'll link me to the file I'll make you a mtz file to use in Theme Manager and you can set any sound as the boot sound.

Try wiping cache and dalvik then reflashing the rom over itself. Don't wipe data and everything will be the way it was before the reflash. You can also try fixing permissions through Rom Manager or in Amon Ra recovery "fix apk uid mismatches". If you do both of these and the Theme Manager still doesn't work, the mtz file won't work.
I'm a little busy, but I'll go ahead and start on it. When I'm done I'll post it here along with directions assuming you get Theme Manager to work.

Well an mtz file won't work on that rom. I don't think the boot animation will work the way it's currently set up. I'll try it on my phone and see. If it doesn't work then the file names will need to be changed. I can do this for you but it will probably be tomorrow before I can finish it. If it works as is I will give you directions on how to get it working on that rom.

OK so I have been "Building" a sense rom (Building in quotations as you actually just really customize it) and trying to put a custom boot animation I add the files where the kitchen tells me and bake it and I get the stock android boot animation (silver letters that say android with no sound). I then tried to replace the files in the resource file in system>customize file and still same results. I am attaching a copy of the recovery log after a fresh flash and after initial boot if anyone can help thank you as I am learning both how to make these and run ubuntu

I'm on Juggs 5.0 and I tried pushing a themed version of the Samsung keyboard app (AxT9IME.apk) into my phone but it would not install. I tried pushing the stock one back but it would not install either. The apk file is present in my system/app folder but it just doesn't run or shows up on application settings or TB. I had a backup on TB but when I tried to restore the app TB just freezes as is restoring the app. WTF! I've tried using a apk manager to install it and nothing. I've tried wiping cache, dalvik, and fixing permissions then rebooting and nothing.Running out of ideas on what to do. Help please cuz that's hands down the best keyboard IMHO. Thx ahead.

Change the current keyboard to something like keyboard.apko
Then push the new one using rootexp change the permission to rw-r-r then reboot. It should install automatically if not press install then reboot the phone.

The apks I used to try to reinstall the Samsung keyboard were from the Juggs Rom itself and from two other themes made for Juggs 5.0 (Kobalt and Bad Blue) so yeah they should of worked but all three fail to install. Its something from my phone. I think I'm missing a app that the keyboard depends on but I'm not sure. Thx anyways homie

K...Im not sure what you mean...when you view the Samsung keyboard app via a app manager lets say thru Titanium Backup it is labeled Samsung Keypad 2.3.5 but the actual apk file is labeled AxT9IME.apk just like the Android keyboard app's apk file is labeled latinIME.apk...There is no Samsungkeypad.apk.
The apk file IS present in my System/App folder but its not installed nor it installs when I try to do it. I know I done did something cuz I had it working and then one day when I wanted to type something I noticed the Android keyboard was showing and when I try to edit the input method the Samsung keypad was missing. I don't know WTF I did.
