OP- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2309936
This is a collection of Halo themes from all over, all in a centralized place, both HDPI and XHDPI. I will be adding both types for each theme but that takes time so please be patient or pm me with a request to have it changed. Will work with any ROM that has Halo.
**Disclaimer**
MUST HAVE ZIPTHEMER REFER TO ATTACKS OP, LINK ABOVE
I'm not responsible for any damage that occurs to your phone during anytime, use at own risk.
*WARNING*
Some system themes affect halo and your flash will not change halo if you have a newer theme, in those instances you would need to either modify the current theme and remove the halo image from within the theme apk or use a different theme. It is also suggested that you switch to default system theme before you flash as it may lead to complications
* Xhdpi Downloads will be in Second Post, Hdpi will be in the third and various icon packs will be in fourth*
*FOR THOSE THAT WANT TO RESIZE ICONS YOURSELVES THIS IS NOT MANDATORY TO THEME HALO*
I have been asked several times how to resize so i figured i would post it here and help out others.
These are the steps that I personally took to get halo themes working and correctly sized, its fairly easy and if we all just resize our own images it frees up time for new creations
OK so first things first u need Esfile explorer and images easy resize....both are in play store. THEY MAKE YOUR LIFE EASY!
Once you have that download the zip you want....it will prob be under sdcard0/Download in Esfile....next you are gonna wanna navigate to the file you downloaded....long press until its checked then click menu and find extract...then just press ok...no need to change any thing...it just creates a folder with everything. After that go back to downloads and find that folder and open it up. you will see a text file and a folder SystemUI, click on the folder, then u will see a folder called res, click on that and then you will see halo_bg.png that's the image u will resize. So now that you know that location, open up the image editor go to the image and for the infuse resize to 113x113 (note is 130-150, play with it to get a size you like) then press save, it will save to a folder on SD card internal called imagesblahblahblah (blahblahblah being the rest of the name that I can't remember), go back to es file, find the imageblah folder, open it and there's a folder called resized images find your PNG rename it to halo_bg.png then save...once its saved copy it... Now go back to where you extracted that earlier folder of the download, navigate to systemUI/res/halo_bg.png and then delete the original PNG file, then paste the one that was in resized folder, once you do that and back out to parent folder of the zip (ex sdcard0/download) once your there you are gonna wanna rezip it, to do that you long press to check it, hit menu, then find the option for "compress" click it, overwrite the old copy, then go to zip themer and build the zip into a flashable zip, turn off halo (normally tap till the circle on top can be seen then drag halo to it (highly recomend), reboot into recovery, flash the unzip of whatever your using now (mandatory as it can give dual colors, don't know why but mine did) clear cache and dalvik then flash the update of whatever you made a zip of, ex of mine halo_tentacle.update....once that's done reboot and you should be done. Let me know if that works if not PM me and let me know what steps you took and I will help you fix, it seems like a lot typed out but once you do it its really easy

Ok well I must've missed something because it didn't work for some reason, but it's also weird because the update zip seemed to flash ok and nothing negative has happened either. I'm gonna have to dig into it and see what I missed, but just out of curiosity I have a quick question if ya don't mind. Was I supposed use the template and remove the folders like the instructions say on attacks thread? You didn't mention it so I thought it wasn't necessary but I'm also sure there's something else I could be missing. I made sure to "update edify" the theme zipper app, I added the xhdmi Ghostbusters theme zipper file from here, selected always for the undo file, and it successfully created the update zip file. Then I went in and shut off Halo in settings, rebooted into recovery, and then flashed the update zip that I created and it seemed to go well, but nothing changed at all? Anyway if you notice there's something obvious I'm missing I'd appreciate it if you could let me know. Thanks

Let me look into the filesystem
File system looks good to go did you flash a different theme before ghostbusters? If so you need to use target.undo and flash that reboot then go back to recovery and flash the new one. Also is that fails try flashing a hdpi one and see if that is your needed one different models may have different ones

Ok no I didn't try any other themes before this one but you might have given me an idea on what happened. The very first time that I flashed the ghostbusters update zip, while it was booting up I realized that I forgot to turn off Halo first so I went in and disabled Halo and then flashed the undo zip...but I didn't reboot first before flashing the update zip again. Do you think that might have caused the problem? Also one other thing is does that update zip have to be flashed from where it was originally created (for ex the internal sd card), or can it be moved to the external and flashed from there? I didn't think it would matter but ya never know

no but they have gifs in the thread I linked in the OP. They are said to work with Desire and Evo series phones, and for function on non HTC phones all thats needed is some filename switching (from the little that i read)
This would be really awesome if someone could get these ported over.
Doesn't seem too hard. I will take a crack at it in a bit.
tried it with this beta theme i flashed but it didn't work. Not sure why. Maybe the drawable xlms need to be modified?
Looks really cool, gl to anyone who tries to get this done Would be awesome for sure.
Its just a copy and paste with probably some renaming of the images..... doesn't seem hard to incorporate at all.... I could do it but I don't know how to make a flashable zip but I could just move it to a aosp theme

I tried it. I didn't bother checking every single file name to see if they match but they all look familiar to me. you can google how to create flashable zip. I just used a theme and replaced all the icons but like i stated, it didnt work. I have swapped out icons many times before so I am sure the file names had variation.
Well did any icons copy over to the theme and flash right? That's what I do is just tweak the icons in the Res folders of the framework apks in themes and roms..... it must be conflicting names like you said.... ill take a look at it here soon and see what it is.... ^_^
[THEME-Apr24] ⋮░⋮ PCB Blue v1.8.2 ⋮░⋮ Circuit Boards! - for AOKP b34/M4 (GSM + LTE)
⋮░⋮ PCB Blue v1.8.2 ⋮░⋮
Updated on 04-24-2012 (mm/dd/yyyy)
for AOKP_b34/m4
Hi all! I have been a proud owner (and still am actually) of an HTC Desire, ASUS Transformer TF101, and now the Samsung Galaxy Nexus (GSM). On each of these devices, I've created a properly-built theme based on my PCB image.
This theme for the GNex is my newest, and based/influenced by my original PCB Sense (v2.x) Theme and PCB Blue for Prime! on the TF101. I'm happy with how it turned out, so I wanted to offer it up to all the fellow XDA users!
Supported Devices:
Galaxy Nexus GSM (maguro)
Galaxy Nexus CDMA (toro)
ASUS Transformer (tf101) (coming soon)
Couple of things to note:
ONLY for AOKP_b34/m4! (older versions are archived). You can try it on other ROMs, but this theme was built from AOKP sources.
*NOTE* - You must choose "CircleMOD" in Settings --> ROM Control --> Battery --> Battery Icon Style to see custom icons, otherwise stock is used
This design was meant to be quite close to stock for those who dig the ICS UI, but want something a bit unique
It is currently a work-in-progress, and will evolve over time. I hope to keep adding more and more...
Please do not ask for too many new feature requests. I am quite a busy dood, and this is still the early days of ICS. I will definitely update it when I can, but I have been making Android themes for a while, and it becomes quite tedious and time consuming to create new .zips/.apks for each and every ROM release. I will certainly do my best though!
I have edited a lot of images with utmost care and attention to detail including those precious draw9patch ones
CHANGE LOG is below
Screenshots:
These are some of the graphic components I built and used in this theme (more actual screenies coming soon):

Downloads + Change Log + MD5 Checksums :
* IMPORTANT * - Do NOT flash this theme immediately after flashing a ROM/gapps/kernel etc., as it will cause issues. If you flash a fresh ROM, boot into it fully, then reboot to Recovery, wipe Dalvik-Cache, then install my theme by itself. Reboot one final time and you should be good to go!
Everything is now at the PCB Theme mini-site
Don't forget that you can use the included PCB Theme Companion App to check for new versions easily on your phone (just click "Website")
Simply scan the QR code below with your phone for the fastest way to download (just don't forget to remember it's location when flashing! It's usually /sdcard/Download):
(*NOTE* - if you DL on your GNex and end up with a '.bin' extension, just rename it to '.zip', check MD5, and flash in CWM)

Installation:
First off, ensure that you're running AOKP_b34/m4, then simply download the flashable .zip below, save it to your /sdcard folder, enter ClockworkMod Recovery (hold Vol_Down + Vol_Up + Power on fresh bootup, then press Up a few times to highlight "Recovery", then press Power) and choose "Install .zip from sdcard", then browse to where you saved the file. I'd also recommend doing a wipe of the Dalvik-Cache. That's it!
Uninstall/Removal:
It would be double the work for me to provide another .zip to revert files, so what I would recommend is that you just extract your original /system/app/SystemUI.apk and /system/framework/framework-res.apk from your original ROM .zip and drop them in a copy of my theme .zip, overwriting them. Simply enter Recovery and flash that .zip which should revert ONLY those 2 files. I'd also recommend doing a wipe of the Dalvik-Cache.

Disclaimer:
Flash this at your own risk! I am NOT responsible for any damage, however I do use it myself and always perform a NANDROID backup + Dalvik wipe before installing. Also, PM me before you rip out any of my resources if you wanted to use them in your own theme/project. I can be accommodating so long as you get in touch first!

Hey Collin, I probably could, however as I just got my Nexus and am using b26, I just released this version initially. I am not sure what the roadmap for the AOKP ROMs are (i.e. when the next Milestone will be coming), so I may just wait for M4.
Otherwise, I have been using b23/25/26 for about 1.5 weeks and haven't had any issues, so I might recommend you upgrade to b26 (it even has some great new features over M3). Of course, if you do a Nandroid and then try it out, you'll have nothing to lose!
As this is the first release, more will come, and I will do my best to support as many ROM versions as I can (which can be a handful for someone like me with little time...trying to run my own business and it takes a LOT out of me!).
Cheers!
Awesome Looking theme, What r the chances of seeing it in Red?

Possibly in due time, but I actually first need to get it to a state where all of the resources that I wanted to edit are in fact 'final'. At that point I would then take the collection and apply different colour schemes. I did it for my PCB Sense version, however it was one of the last steps after I had created everything in green. Sooo, not ruling it out, but most likely not any time soon.

Kick ass KD! I was hoping to hear/see some of the TF101 crew who also snagged the GNex. Thanks for giving good use to my themes, and also for the feedback. You're right, I did ask for +/-, and I actually do agree with you on the status bar icons. I know they don't really fit into the super clean modern look of ICS, but my geek nostalgia forced me to use them, as I have been doing so since my Desire days. That, and the fact that I wasn't feeling very creative to think hard about it I'll be honest I did design the Wifi icons from scratch though (notice how you didn't specifically mention those?), so I'll try to do the same thing again for the battery/BT/cell ones after getting my creative smok, err, juices flowing again I've got some ideas...
Thanks again fellas, already 236 downloads in less than a day! \o/ (is that good or bad? I dunno, still cool tho!)
awesome looking theme
love the subtle pcb design. Maybe u could change the softkeys up a little.
Would there be any issues if i flash other softkeys over it? will the animation be overwritten?

Thanks klyzon! Really glad you are liking the theme.
In terms of the softkeys, if the package that installs them replaces SystemUI.apk (just have a look in the .zip), then you will most likely lose many parts of my theme (I have modded both SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk). I will consider building different collections of .apks with different softkeys, but again, this is just the first release of my theme, so that may happen in the future.
Otherwise, if you (or anyone else) do see different softkeys that you want to use, post a link in this thread and I'll ask the dev/themer of those images if I would be allowed to use them in a version of my theme.
** EDIT ** - I just checked one of packages from this thread --> [SOFTKEYS] Softkey Collection 2.0 [GSM/CDMA] [Update 08-02] by atticus182 and he actually provides a .zip with PNG images! This is great because it will allow you to take my SystemUI.apk and merge in those PNGs so you can ONLY replace the softkeys. You'll just need to extract my SystemUI.apk somewhere temporary, pop in the PNGs to the correct place (/res/drawable-xhdpi) and then drag that modified SystemUI.apk back into my .zip flash package. Also, the PCB pattern behind the softkeys is kept in 2 PNGs from my SystemUI.apk, namely "ic_sysbar_highlight.png" and "ic_sysbar_highlight_land.png", so just don't overwrite those and you'll be good to go!
Please do let me know if you've tried that, and how it works out for you. It would be great to have a UOT Kitchen type of webapp to build custom themes, but I don't have the know-how to build this for PHP/.net/etc...Anyways, hope this helps in the meantime!
Hey all!
I've just updated the PCB theme to v1.1.0 which is based on AOKP b27. I am running it right now, and it's working (and looking! ) great!
I have also added a few more features/skinned elements, and I'll work on making up a couple of screenies right now.
Anyways, please test it out if you're on AOKP b27 (which is amazing btw), and let me know what you think. Cheers and thanks!
Installed and very nice.

Thanks for the feedback Sleeepy2, however it is very hard to cater to each individual need (as mentioned in the OP). I did not make ALL spinner animations blue because the Android system has 2 by default (black and white). I simply made the black ones blue, and left the white...well, white.
As for the lock screen lock icon, I will also leave that white, as it blends/fits in with the other lock screen elements. More importantly, white offers a better contrast, in case someone had a blue-ish wallpaper, in which case the lock would be hard to see.
I'm sorry if I am not being very helpful here, but it's actually quite easy for you to change the colours, spinners, etc. yourself if you'd really like to. Please just don't re-release a modded version of my theme if you do though. Modding my theme for your own usage would be absolutely fine though!

actually, i kinda dislike the top bar being in pcb design, the old black bar suits it better, more subtle imho

Hey klyzon, appreciate the feedback here, even though I actually do like the top status bar pattern. I definitely hear what you are saying though, as it doesn't make the theme very subtle any longer. Also, my lady gave me some grief for this too when I flashed it to her GNex
I am pondering whether or not to make 2 versions of the theme. One with basic, subtle PCB design mods, and one with everything styled to the tits Of course, that means double the work when it comes to updating (AOKP is on a roll!), so it will eat more of my already limited time
I just wish there was a better way to mod system resources without having to decompile/rebuild each .APK as they are updated...if anyone does know of such a method, PLEASE let me know! I looked into Ninja/Metamorph, but I don't think they offer much better methods. There was a thread about the VillainTheme system in the ASUS Transformer forums, but it never worked properly (wasn't actively worked on either).
Anyways, sit tight if you can for a few, and I'll try to work some more magic...
P.S. - I'd love to hear anyone else's thoughts on this. It would be great to get to a version that the majority approves of!
Hey, just installed and really like how subtle the effects are
I for one really like the PCBed(?) status bar!
2 things:
- The alarm icon gets kind of faded (it's never really "in your face" anyway)
- Could not get alternative softkeys to go with it.... Will have to learn to open those flashable zips and get the hands a little dirty
Thanks for the great job Not often that I actually install AND keep a theme
I really want this to work with my Razr on AOKP 27, but it never seems to work. Any idea how to get it working? I LOOOOVE this theme!
Edit: This is what my lwp looks like actually, so it would match!

Hey there,
is the circuit board wallpaper available separately by any chance? Looks pretty neat.
I need someone else to take a look at this, please. I am not on a team, and a novice at best. I just finished cooking my first rom. Everything worked with exception of Contacts (and phone since they are connected). I need an experienced devs help.

What did you take out/add to the rom for you to get FC?
see thread here, just took out a variance of these. Added AOSP email and exchange.

I am trying different variants, like re-adding the stock email and exchange, but not even a boot after i do this...
All AOSP system apps won't work with TW

Yeah if you added AOSP contacts to a tw based rom thats probably what's causing you fc.

Please do some research before you cook roms. You could do the same exact thing you were explaining without cooking a rom.

Thanks for getting my back. I did a lot of research, for the last few months or so. I only removed bloat system apps from the ROM. I agree, could've been more descriptive, but I didn't want to list like 60 apps and take up space. Now, the contacts that were in the system are TW based. Everything was taken from datajosh's FF18 stock rooted deodexed, and then themed from ev1lart toxic theme that I ported over form the sgh-t989. Everything worked with the exception of Contacts as stated above. I have since put everything back the stock exchange and email back and tested, but same problem, and after doing so the SystemUI wouldn't function correctly. So i rolled back to original to still have contacts FC. I was hoping maybe an experienced dev wouldn't mind downloading and taking a look. Maybe see something I had overlooked is all.
Also, forgot to mention that I am in the process of re-themeing

Have you tried replacing all the files at once: systemui.apk, both framework files, phone.apk and contact.apk from stock yet then work your way back from there? Also, clear cache & davlik cache.

Have you flashed totally stock rooted and only add contacts yet? Then maybe one app at a time without messing with ANY sytem files like systemui, framework etc?
Oh, btw you really need to try the Autoapktool from here, make sure you get 204a:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1577025
I've fought with apk's for a long time and come to find out, there's a frickin corrupt .9.png file or something else somewhere not allowing me to compile correctly even though it's looking like it is. The trick is anything you decompile, it pops up a status window letting you know if the decompile went well. It's a pretty advanced tool and supports ICS.
BTW: How noob? You're double checking/setting system permissions when you push apps correct?

OK. I have all sorts of tools. Autoapktool works great decompiling, but not so good with recompiling. Agat63 does some awesome work though, he has mad skills. I wouldn't be anywhere without all the great devs here. I use the original apktool for most, but there is a new ics apktool I use (apktool for ics basically. These two I use exclusively for de/recompile, unless I just want the res really quick. I use auto in order to create flashables and such.... I have tried stock and tried to add via root explorer individually. Once again, contacs is a no go, and neither is systemUI. Also tried pushing using GangsKidz kitchen. Pushes the right way every time. But, still no joy. Dazed is going to take a look to see what he can find, but for now I think I am just going to start over.....

Thanks. We would have nothing if it weren't for ev1lArt. He did the majority, and created all the icons, I just took them to our device and applied them. I created a theme, but the testing of it went just as well as my ROM, so it is on hold until I find out which exact apk(s) is(are) f'd up. I have also cleaned it up quite a bit.
Ok everyone. I ha e discovered my mistake. The pro lem.lies.within the idiot that made.it....me. Seriously though. The theme was just fine and dandy, but I used the assets from the ported framework, hence why everything went awry. I searched for 6-7 hours straight to figure this one out. With that being said, I have semester finals this week. I will get back on this on Thursday or Friday this week. Hope to have this bad boy themed and ripping out next week. Also, what are thoughts about an apple osx themed rom? Im not much an iphan <-- get it? But I do have a Mac, and like osx. Just wanted some input. Thank you everyone who has helped with suggestions and tools. I was losing m mind, chasing my tail for hours....

I got the idea from bossog in the sprint note 2 forum. Must be rooted!! Use any type of file manager etc. Root explorer, Astro, Rom Toolbox. Make sure to back up original files in case you want to revert. Do not ask me for the originals. I will not post them. Simply extract them from any Rom if you really need them.
I usually stay my ass in the Note 10.1 forums. Please check http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2052533 If you want to grab you some newer additions. I'm just spreading love to the Note 2 community.
Instructions:
1. Download desired sounds (att & det)
2. Rename the sound ending in noti1, noti2, or noti3
3. Place files in system>media>audio>ui
4. Set appropriate permissions
5. Set in settings>s pen>pen attach detach sounds
6. Enjoy!!!

Good stuff. But unsuccessful on my end.
That's some great stuff right here, but unfortunately, when I get into the system/media/audio/ui and try to replace those files, I can't. I'm assuming it's due to custom ROM permissions. I use ES File Explorer to manage the files. All the file properties read:
-Readable: Yes
-Writable: No
-Hidden: No
Even if I try to overwrite them, it mentioned that action failed.
Thanks!
Re: [Mod] Custom S-Pen Att/Det Sounds!!
I have not had to fix permissions at all. I just rename the file and replace them. Make sure in es file explorer that you have the mount file system checked. I change mine out quite frequently on multiple roms and never had an issue.

Are the bootanimations for aosp roms simple zip files? Or do then have to be zipped a certain way? I editted out the little circle under the Guy Faux mask that comes with the Infamous rom and I just get black screen on boot during the animation sequence. Without the edits the Infamous animation file works fine on aosp roms. But with my edits and rezipping the files it doesn't load at all.

Make sure your picture file names are chronological. also check the desc.txt file to ensure it matches. as well as the part0 etc folders. there honestly isn't much to them, really strange how it wont display properly. and are you re-zipping, or simply drag and dropping the edited file to the zip?

I was rezipping. I will try just dropping the files into the existing zip.
I didn't change any of the other stuff like file names or anythinng. I just took the existing jpg's and edited out the part i didn't like and resaved them as the same file names.

what kind of format and compression were you using on the jpgs? Also, what program did you use to edit them? And what color depth?
Samsung Theme Designer seems easy but i keep getting a weird popup and cant advance to the next step

Windows Paint.
I wasnt doing anything more than adding a black box over top of a section of the animation I ddnt like. But I dont think that was the issue because I left some frames of the animation untouched and those didnt work either.

Lol it only took one picture to break mine. lol. i prefer png. But i think the issue i had with mine was something about layers. the kernel wasn't able to understand the image. Try using Adobe Firefox.

You should take video and make that into a boot animation!
Of course you'd never reboot your phone again....ever...
Good luck with the dentist. Do have someone take video of you leaving the office. From what Im told I was quite the entertainment for about 3 hours as the drugs wore off. I don't remember a bit of it. Though I kind of remember hitting on the nurse....

Yep feeling better today. And I got my bottoms pulled. They were impacted
And not sure if I actually posted it, but upload the pictures you want edited just zip them up. I'm pretty sure it's paint's save format that's breaking it.
