I am working on Greendroid, since Orangedroid is complete, even though the camera doesn't work for some reason. (I've tried to figure it out, to no avail)
Anyways, I am going to make a theme that replaces all the standard orange highlights with android-green ones, and make a few other green-themed changes. It will basically be the default theme, with green accents. It will be a few days before I get a beta ready, since I have a lot of .9.png errors to ry and fix (if anyone can help me with those, that'd be much appreciated). But if you'd like to help, or have questions, comments, etc. Let me know.
Quick teaser attached.
Looking forward to this theme.
YES!!! good lookin, i hella needed this theme
Well this looks to be suspended indefinitely, as the .9.png files I have to change don't ever seem to work. They work fine in the 9-patch program, but on the phone they refuse to stretch correctly. So unless there comes a fix for this, I cannot replace all the orange drawables like I wanted. :-/
Update: Good news and bad news people.
Good news: Stericson has come to the rescue, YET AGAIN! And figured out how to fix my .9.png files. In other words, this theme will be made, and come out.
Bad news: The source I used to make the files is based from the android cupcake build, so I won't be able to make a usable version until cupcake is released at the end of the month. But hey, that's not too long from now.

That is assuming that the rumors that it is actually being released this month are true...

Yay for the good news...
Not sure working against a dev branch at this point is going to keep you sane. Who knows how much more will alter prior to going gold. I hope for your sake only minor adjustments are needed
this is still a work in progress as i am looking to create a few more system icons and the launcher tab on the homescreen. i will be updating this semi regularly(school and work have both kicked up a notch recently so i will be on a little less frequently) main thing i am looking for is a good picture of sylar taking someone's head off. if you have a good pic of someone who got scalped by sylar(preferably with the head removed but i could work with almost anything) i found several pics but i don't like them since his hand is in the pic. if you have any suggestions or anything you would like to say about this theme then by all means let me know i am up for trying anything. i am still working on getting my eclipse up and running, some errors are keeping me from being able to edit .9.png images. as well as hex edits might be attempted later.
here is the link for you to download:
HEROES.zip
like i said i am up for suggestions, let me know what you think, if you are a heroes fan then by all means you HAVE TO HAVE THIS THEME
**to do
battery
random statusbar icons
FONT(big fix for those that use the calc, i am missing a few chars like minus and multiply
couple of other things that i will list as i find them, this has been a WIP for several weeks and i am finally ready to release a beta
Could use a bit of polishing/etc. And change the pull tab of Claire's cut head. Looks ugly and doesn't fit well. And I assume there are 2 of them from dxTop? If so, you should use the default home to showcase themes. Unless this is a dxTop only theme. If so, please state that.
Good start though. Big fan of the show, watch it every Monday
i know the tab looks bad right now, but it's actually really hard to find adecent pic of sylar scalping someone. i meant to use the default home screen for the pics so i will re upload them later when i get to my computer and have a different home screen screenshot. if you have an idea of something to try for the app tab then please let me know, i am up for any and all improvements.
Love the theme and will not be switching to anything else in the near future. Would love to see some more of your work. A+++
I would probably make the clock look like the eclipse. Just a thought.
edit: or how about using that "S" symbol as the pull tab and using one of the many painted artworks as the wallpaper. . .
thank you, i am now on dude's build so i will probably be making themes for that build only, and maybe port to the JF build since most users use his build. i am not sure if i am gonna port this over since i lost all the icons a week ago when i went back to ubuntu 8.10
why didnt i see this before!!!?? ... would be awesome if you ported to 1.5 .. Heroes is the the only show i have EVER watched religiously.
this was posted a while ago and i figured since i got almost no response about it, and only a half dozen downloads that it wasn't worth fixing up more or porting it. i will download my own theme sometime soon and see what i can do. i was working on a dude theme containing black and blue(i prefer dark themes) but the 1.1 got released with manup's black and blue theme so i might start over. i have no big ideas on a theme yet, just a few minor tweaks for some personal use not to be released
well it looks and IS amazing. Only theme i use.
Are you going to port this too ADP 1.5?
i will probably port to dude version and JF haykuro users sorry but i have no intention of porting it to those builds. i do not know when i will be porting but probably to the dude build soon since i am missing my theme a lot
P.S. the status bar will be black in my port as well as a couple other things
I wanna start off by thanking Jf, haykuro, The whole community and mostly Cy for pushin the limits and still not givin up when all looks dead, Stericson for all the great tutorials and work he's done, Manup and all the great themers for the inspiration to learn how to theme im still not great but im working on it. Ok now that the mushy stuff is out the way this theme is for CM 4.0.4 Stable and Cm 4.1.11.1 experimental ONLY!! ill update as i can if u don't like it don't use it no one is forcing u to download this Im not a dev i just do this in my spare time for fun i figured i would share. If you don't like the mini me hero clock then u can use the great app by crotalusfreak in the market se hero clocks im sure u all know about it but for anyone that doesn't its a great app. Updated to cm 4.1.11.1 its not exactly the same but as close as i can get for now. I forgot to thank ohsaka for color change.jar its amazing and thanks to david1171 for supplying me with the experimental template.
Updated 10/7/2009 with stericsons lockscreen a couple fixes and blur animations for 4.1.11.1 ONLY!! will update to 4.1.999 tom when i get a chance. i know its a lil late but my computer crashed and i lost all my original files and image editing stuff better late then never tho. This update is not a full theme and MUST!! be flashed on top of the original 4.1.11.1 theme for now will be full theme next update.
Updated 10/11/2009 4.1.999, few fixes, stericsons lock screen working on version without should be up shortly, Advanced launcher, Blur Animations, works for 4.1.999. Thanks to moonspoon for his clock minute hand from gchrome and to drizzy for the blur animations.

This looks really good? So is it set in stone bluedroid because IMO bluedevil would seem like such a better name Looking good though can't wait to see when its finished
Wow...nice I like the effect on pull down and pull up bars. Even though some try to stay away from that.
thanx for the feedback
Awesome! Are you planning on porting it for Cyanogen's last experimental build? I love the theme.
Thanx, ya i def want to port it i didn't have a chance to grab the template for the experimental tho ibefore it was taken down if anyone has a copy they could send i would appreciate it.
edit: got a a copy i'll start workin on it as soon as i can.
updated to experimental rom 4.1.11.1

were you able to figure out the widgets for 4.1.11.1
ya i had to redo em from scratch thats why its a little diff except the new search widget i just changed the search floater.png until i can figure the rest out its a pita
it seems like they just changed all the widgets to one .9 now aint it?
yeah i noticed that and actually think it is a good move on their part since it can be annoying when something works one layout and fails on another layout.
ya i def agree much better except the search widget u can't really do much with it except solid colors

yeah i think the global search widget just looks ugly.
ya def they shoulda went with the same layout as the rest of em. have u figured out how to change the progress loading circle it seems like they changed the xmls that u edit on 4.0.4 i changed all the spinner pngs but it only changed the small loading circles the rest stayed the same
i haven't tried to mess with them , but if/when i mess with them i will let you know my findings. try asking in the progress bars/circles thread maybe someone in there has figured it out.
ight cool thanx
I don't know if ths theme is still being worked on, if it's completed, if the link is bad, or what. But, I downloaded the theme and after a reboot it just hangs on the G1 screen.
I wiped before installing this theme and the whole nine yards.
Any advice?

The 4.1.11.1 version. Tried again today. No dice. It hangs on the G1 screen for at least 10 mins or more. Admittedly I have a gazillion apps, and I'm used to giving themes time to do their thing but something just doesn't seem right here.
I've spend some time searching for a modded apk, but I've been unable to find one. From what I've read it's possible to do. (h**p://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-themes/42629-how-invert-colors-gmail-apk-message-display-screen-3.html)
I just think it will be much more easy on the eyes and battery life with a nice black screen like the default email app.
I second this - I'm sure many devs would include this in their ROMs if it is ever created.
I think a customized version matching the black/blue touchwiz colors would be nice!
Black base with blue details. I'd use it! I can't wait for Froyo for the new Gmail though.
i really like this idea, devs we need this!!pretty please
+6 !
I'm going to have to second this one too... Black GMail sounds awesome especially on these AMOLED screens

haha. ya, what's next?

Agreed, that would be awesome.
I'll give this a shot this week. APK manager will make it easier but not guaranteeing any results.
Anyone feels like assisting on this pm me, two heads are better!
^I'd offer to help but I've already looked through everything in my realm of "knowledge"
I've found some xml files already that probably control it all but it might be simpler than that I'm checking tonight

Good luck!
If I had any clue how to edit the XMLs I'd offer to assist.
I guess some of these xmls weren't supposed to be touched. First attempt and I have no Epic for the time being. I'm doing what I can on the phone itself to avoid Odin, but that's next. I have to try another route that is showing promise. It might require a theme to work though because one way is to edit the colors in the framework that is inherited by Gmail. Once I'm back up and running I can see where I can push this.
Back up one nandroid was corrupt, the older one worked. Now I can see where I went wrong, don't expect any results tonight lol.
Here's where my two errors happened. I deleted gmail.apk with root explorer, phone did not like that. Bootlooped. I restored the nandroid backup that was corrupt. It didn't work fc everything once booted so I did a factory data reset. That fixed it to boot and run. Next I applied the modified gmail with an update zip. This crashed the phone worse. I am back up to where I was earlier today, I'm going to try a different signing method as well as making it's own update zip. If that doesn't work, the xmls won't allow me to edit so it will be up to me changing colors in the android framework.

This may help.
Are you working odex or deodex BTW?
Care to fill us in which framework files you are editing? I will play with this some tonight to, off work in 1 1/2 hours.

And which xmls won't let you edit them?
I'm going to be undertaking the task of taking the default sprint theme placed on the Samsung Intercept and modding it to the original default white android theme found on most commonly Motorola Droids.
I originally had the idea of doing this since this phone seems to not be too common among the android community, and for people like myself who do not want to ROM or flash the mods to the phone it is near impossible to find any MetaMorph or NinjaMorph compatible mods for it. So I decided to take a step up and start on my own little project because I personally think the stock theme seems like a generic cheap theme, and I prefer the default android theme.
In the future if this mod is successful I may undertake one converting to the HTC android theme as well and possibly package it into a full MetaMorph once I gain experience.
Attached below are the images of what I plan to convert the theme too which is going to be starting with just the statusbar and notification and battery icons. First image is the stock intercept theme, the second is the original android theme I will be modding it to and the third is the stock HTC theme which will be coming later on.
I'm experiencing weird issues when trying to replace the status bar with the Droid one it refuses to replace the png, however the HTC statusbar replacement works perfectly using NinjaMorph. I'm going to try flashing the modified droid instead and see if that gets me somewhere
Why can't you just download a stock ROM and get the framework-res there?
Got the files I needed out of it and I'm getting ready to apply the files also working on getting a stock HTC ROM as well now thanks zHk3R
Edit: I just tried using NinjaMorph to replace the statusbar png with the droid one and it failed to change it even though it said it was successful but when I applied the HTC statusbar png it worked perfectly the first time strange
This projects basically dead. I hate this phone beyond what words can describe, the whole "customized" android ROM Samsung put on this phone makes me feel like I'm running a cheap rip off smartphone. There is no stock ROMs or un-customized ones to the point where they are all even more bloated than this pos stock ROM.Backing up this phone is impossible, metamorphs don't work on it and ninjamorph doesn't work properly on it. I wish I didn't have another few months left before my upgrade I can't wait to get rid of this thing. And to top it all off It is impossible to access recovery mode I've tried both my phone and my brothers intercept and both can not be booted into recovery mode unless I use an app while inside android. I'll be back on here when I can find a non piece of crap android phone from Sprint.

Check over at SDX-Developers There has been many changes for the Intercept that will make rethink the Intercept. There has been several ROMs built and many themes are being ported. I've been porting several and made a few.
I've been over there and tried the roms available and it was a disaster. The level of respect I got from members over there was terrible as well they were not willing to help at all and ignored several questions that were asked. It was just plain rude and I ultimately left that site behind after not being satisfied with the mods available and the people there.

sorry to hear that. I have never been disrespect there. But I do know that questions will not get answered right away if the questions you are asking have been answered already. It gets real annoying when no one reads just asks questions and complains. When 90% of the time the problem or question you have somebody already had it or asked about it. And as far as not being satisfied with the mods available there, then you're pretty much out of luck because that is where all the ROMs, Themes, and MODs are coming from for the Intercept. But for another place where the people are nice and helpful is ubuntdroid.com and there is great development for the Intercept there.
Yeah for sure it got too be extremely stressful and just not worth the time to continue to be on the forum over there. I'm going to be trying some metamorphs from around the forums here to see if they are working or not on it, It was just to the point where my questions that were not previously asked where being ignored in order for someone to bash a new person asking a question that was easily answerable by a search. Guess I'm just on a break for now on making progress with this phone.

Well I'm not sure if metamorphs are going to work on the intercept. But if all you're trying to do is theme then all you need to do is be deodexed and then you can make themes & just flash them. I've been porting and making themes for sometime on the intercept. I'll be releasing a port of the BUUF theme for the intercept tonight. After you get a hang of themeing it kinda turns into an addiction. It becomes easy but time consuming

I'm not sure I've got a backup done all I pretty much plan to do with the metamorphs is change out the statusbar and the icons up there with it, and possibly the app icons. I'm just taking a break from it since it's just caused me a ton of un-needed stress from the mess over at sdx. I'm going to try the metamorphs this weekend and see what the deal is with them.

Like I was saying to do that you don't have to metamorph. Just be deodexed then make the changes then flash the new themed template with the new changes. I know it would be nice to have metamorph working but unless youre a developer and plan switching a lot of stuff to get it to work I say more power to you and can't wait to see if you get it done
I'm not a developer so I won't be able to get it to work more than likely. Thanks for the advice and saving me the trouble of possible messing my phone up with metamorph, so for the deodexed template I just have to replace the images I want and flash it through inxane's recovery as I would a normal rom correct? Again appreciate the help man

Flash the deodexed stock template thru inxaxne recovery. This will keep everything stock but makes it so you can edit everything and not have fc's everywhere. Then flash the deodexed template you made with the changes you did. If you can't get. Just get yourself deodexed then pm with what you want changed then I could make the changes and set it up in a flashable zip. But try it first its not hard. But ALWAYS make backups just in case. And remember that if you can still boot your phone into recovery then you can still fix it
Sent from my SPH-M910 using Tapatalk
Alright sounds good I'll work on replacing the images and backing up everything on my phone then. I already made a theme to flash but I lost it on my laptop when I wiped it last night. I've got no problem with making the flashable theme so again thanks for the help.

Ok cool give it a try and let me know. Remember to make the png changes to the deodexed template and you don't have to unzip it just open archive with 7zip and drag the pngs you want to change, make sure they have the same file name. And if you need help just pm here or thru sdx. I check both often.

Bumping for status update - extremely interested in this project.
what kind of update are you looking for? if you want the htc sense theme for the intercept?.. this has already been done. and if you want the stock white just ask I could possible have that done for you. if you are familiar with sdx(im pretty sure i've seen there) then search there for intercept themes and you'll find the samsense theme port by wwsean08

By status update I meant where OP was on his project of bringing the stock white Android theme to the Intercept, which is what I've been looking for. I've attempted porting the files myself but had a few hangups. My main concerns is porting the Statusbar and notification area entirely, including its status icons (battery, connectivity, ect).
The re-visioned theme Samsung/Sprint put on the Intercept just looks so... cheap. The lockscreen, for example, was the cheapest looking excuse for a lockscreen I've seen since Windows NT. Replacing *that*, however, was easy thanks to SDX.
And yeah, I go to SDX :3 Between XDA and SDX, it's Android heaven.
Apologies for the lack of updates I haven't gotten a chance to start working on the theme I've been pretty busy lately I just need to figure out how to change the date and time text in the statusbar to black since it will show up as invisible if I were to use the original android statusbar so I can't move forward until I figure that part out.

I couldn't agree more with you on that the stock theme on this phone looks even cheaper than some of the non-smartphones I've seen around which isn't saying much, the lock screen is why I use the pattern lock I just liked the pattern to begin with so it worked out good. Hopefully this theme works since it's the only reason I tried to flash ubuntdroids rom in the first place
