BUILD YOUR OWN THEME
Ok folks, here it is, a change to make your own theme. As cool as I think I am, I bet you guys have some pretty good ideas for themes so Im making this a cooking thread for your own person recipes.
These are the ingredients I need:
- Build type, RC30 and ADP1 are preferred but I can make RC8 as well
- Icon pack, you can find any group of icons to use in an size, this means application icons, status bar icons, just anything you want but you have to supply it
- Image for the status bar in portrait and landscape.
So ya, I am kinda figuring this out as I go so post what you want made into a theme and I will see what I can do.
You rock!! I gather a list for ya and post it soon.

This is a pretty cool idea, though I suspect you're gonna get absolutely flooded with requests
If you need files sizes or types let me know or ask and Im sure a bunch of people can answer.
You do know there are requests for themes here.
You can start with a few of those
gucci theme
i dont really have any real ingredients as you put it jus diff icons and use the gucci colors
Well I was hoping it would be more for the people who know exactly what they want and dont know how to put it together than just the people coming up with new ideas. So if you know you you want my carbon fiber status bar, with the silver status icons from Blue Star 5 and defaults icons with one of your own, I could take those things and make a theme out of them in like 30 minutes.
Just close this thread if you would rather me pick it up in the other thread.
What you stated is exactly what i had in mind. Ill pm with my "wishlist and icons" and we can go from there.

I really like your Karbon theme, id like the status bar just grey like deep black, your status icons , and this battery meter. is this possible?
http://www.filehosting.org/file/deta...parannoyed.rar
Not sure but i think i saw that icon set on deviant art. might want to take a look.
The status icons from Karbon are great, just the batt meter change.
here are a few icons id like included:
D3ath star=settings
Kerry King guitar=my music
internet=browser
email=email
not sure if you are changing the settings context (menu key menu) with pics
craniac=dialer
flame=messaging
book=contacts
I have an idea....this is gonna get carried away lol
Place all pics in a zip folder with a text file directing what should get done and upload a zip ONLY.

Im building it now, I assume you want RC30 right? And if you can get those icons as PNG files with transparent backgrounds it would be best, if not I can see what I can do.
And just to confirm, the status bar in a dark color will make it so you cant see the text, if thats fine its fine with me.
To respond to Mikey1022, would it also be ok to host them on a site like photobucket and link the pic in the post or would you prefer zip files?

I would just say use your own judgement. If someone will look at the theme and be instantly reminded of another one you pulled from you might want to give a lot of credit to it, but if it was just a platform to start with and its mostly your own creation I would just mention who the theme came from. Just think about it as if it was your theme being used by someone else. Personally its a huge compliment.
you are right perhaps the light grey status bar from macdroid would be better.
Yes RC30, sorry for the lack of info.
I am really contemplating dual booting fedora or mandriva, to better acquaint myself with this stuff.
Ya, I was going to do it with this one but it was way too dark until we can change font colors.
good call, i hope you guys will have access to changing font color soon.
Thanx for doin this, til i force myself to figure it out on my own.
Just for everyone's knowledge, these icons are not my creation. I have collected them over the last year or so from different icon packs mainly downloaded from deviantart. this is mainly a personal theme, that i find appealing for me to look at.
I was wondering if there are any really good Status Bar apps out there? Trying to emulate one of these following looks:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19847962&postcount=8703
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21702170&postcount=8770
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21538453&postcount=8761
I tried Super Status Bar and it was very mediocre and StatusBar+ Lite but the "Lite" doesn't give me enough to play with to know what the premium version does. Not sure if these things are baked into the ROM or if there's a good app to do this.
I specifically want weather (with gorgeous icons like that 2nd and 3rd link), time, battery life, and signal strength but other options would be gravy.

damn bro 373 views and no one answers, in the market get rom tool box you can change all that easily. make sure you get the pro version its worth the $.
Call me crazy, but I really dig the look of Honeycomb, from the apps to the WiFi icon to the font.
Any tips/ideas on getting any combination of the three? I know there are themes in the Play Store... ignoring that though, maybe I can take the Honeycomb source and copy the icons from it to a JB ROM?
I'm mostly in it for the font, if anyone could help me get that on my Nexus, that would be swell!
You could try ROM Toolbox by Jrummy and change your status bar icons. I think it has them in it.
I just realized Google never released the Honeycomb source... I know they didn't initially, but I thought they had in the past 2 years... D'oh.
...But thank you, JRummy's ROM Toolbox let's me get Honeycomb status bar icons! Sweet!

i can give you the center clocking and battery but other than that idk
This is my status bar on my s3. Not exactly ios style but quite close I think.
I can tell you how I got it. It's a mod and not an app so it's free also.
that's not the style i was thinking about..
I saw this mod on S4 theme and apps section.. Well this is one hell of a job..
Maybe some one will find the time to port it for our device !

Xd that's so easy to create! Those icons you can also create yourself and just put them in system ui and use vegeta's notification mod for 100percent transparency.
Use iNoty..

Ok I will do it since its quite easy stuff. But I cannot guarantee it for 4.2.2, especially if you are on roms like paranoid, pac etc. I would recommend you to use 4.1.2 if you can, it's more stable and has more scope of modding and you can easily mod anything, if that's ok with you?

Indeed iNoty is only a app for status bar.
And the reply could be a lil bit better too.

try this one theme and let me know that is working or not.
do nandroid first!
http://d-h.st/pOB
this pack includes ios7 signal and battery icons, also necessary files for precentage batt and center white clock.

No battery icon visible, only percentage if toggled in settings.
Center clock works is there, icons are good.
Just not in correct places. Data icon is still in same place, as is wifi.
Also Wi-Fi icon is either too big or too high. Not sure if it's cut-off or not...
ok, so try another, http://d-h.st/WZa

On the go at the moment, so I'll have to edit a screenshot in later. Anyways, I had to reflash rom to restore old statusbar for this one to "update", anyways, battery icon is back and wifi/data is better aligned. Now just location.
Also, ignore the earlier response of no data icon. Its linked with the wife icon (shouldve guessed).
Thanks for the fast response!
Really appreciate it!

using 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 ??
Hey guys, so while i was browsing some themes, i noticed 2 themes that had stock navigation bar. I didnt like the themes and they were too heavily modified so i decided to make my own theme. The problem is that when i reached the navigation bar section, there was no stock navigation bar and no option to add my own. Any ideas on how they did it?
https://themes.htc.com/#/user/theme/com.htc.theme.t611abbf5-09fc-4839-8d0c-1dac0d308448
here is one such example
By stock do you mean AOSP or Sense? If AOSP try this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/themes-apps/rounded-aosp-style-statusbar-icons-t3086556

yep aosp is what i was refering to, but i dont have root, and i can apply that theme without root, any other solutions?
Are you using the 'Maker Pro' section of the site? This where you have morr options.
I was wondering this too because the nav bars that are on Maker Pro are very unattractive. I have no idea how they got the AOSP nav bar in Maker Pro because its not their at all.

yep i used the maker pro, but i can only choose the htc ones
Has anyone figured out how to do this? I would love to know.
I've been trying to do this for quite a time now. All I got is that the themes you download are in the path
Android/data/com.htc.launcher/files/LocalThemes
the navbar icon is under the form of "NavigationKey.apk"
Hopefully someone will figure out a way to modify this. Dying to get the AOSP Navbar yet rooting my device is not an option due to warranty reasons.
