This is something I mixed up last week. I just took some good stuffs from different themes and put them into one theme.
I'm sorry but I forgot the name of the developers and the themes that I used.
Furthermore I'm not even sure if this is allowed here. So if this is against any rule, mods please take down this thread ? and I'm sorry.
To install the theme extract the file to the Themes folder in your SD Card or Internal Storage. Or you can also try putting it in the Huawei/Themes folder in SD Card or Internal Storage. The wallpaper that comes with it is of poor quality so change it.
Hope you would like it.
(Again sorry not for mentioning the developers of those cool themes)

What is the version of the WAD2 ?
Because i download the WAD2 from the offical web site and installed it. I change the theme but apprear a black screen(i already checked the location of the folder is correct).
Does your theme only suitable for one version ? please help !
I use a chinese rom. and i make the path storage card in the root of internal memory. It can launch the themes. but another problem is when i touch the icons , most of them appear "path error" can you help me to solve it.
thanks
hope you don't mind but I will be downloading and disecting to see how it works, as I'm still in the design phase for my very first theme (and I don't have an artistic bone in my body so it's taking some time)

Version doesnt matter. I am on the newest version. Your folder path is incorrect. Post your exact paths so I can see where you are putting things

OK, I know what wrong. It is because most of your link is written by english .So it can not be linked in a Chinese rom. I change the link with all icons. Now it works . Thanks Mallman.
theme updated
removed the status text for email, sms, voicemail and made the icons turn from grey to red when a new message arrives.
added additional buttons in the contacts page
Added a weather page when you tap the weather on the front page

exactly that will not work.
You need ot make a folder on your internal sotrage called "Storage Card" because your microsd card is not named storage card, it is named Opslagkaart
Once you do that then make WAD_Icons in the storage card folder. Then male MALLMAN in the WAD_Icons folder then Make Touch_Of_Red in the MALLMAN folder so you end up with
\storage card\WAD_Icons\MALLMAN\Touch_Of_Red\

Ahh, awesome, thanks!
It's working now!
However: I would also like to change screens by sliding, like TouchFlo and others have...
Is there a possibility to script such a thing?
Hi all,
I apologize if this question has been asked before--I used the search function and didn't see this posted anywhere. I realize that the purpose of RC33 lite is to move audio files to the SD card to save space. However, I need to know how much space is required to install a new RC33 theme. I have 8MB free space after removing the audio files and putting them on the SD card. Is that enough? What's the target?
Thanks,
--Ed

Thank you
Hi all,
I'm currently working on a 2.1 Sense-UI 'Lite' Rom, which will use a customised, lightened version of the Espresso Rosie. I'll be no-doubt spending every second of my free time in Photoshop with the aim of making this rom look stunning.
As for the rom itself:
I've used highlights from several of the current 2.1 releases from this and other forums, and I'm pretty happy with it so far; it has a very small 'not working' list, and the filesize is reasonably low for a Sense UI rom. Of course, I'll credit people where credit is due.
Anyway, the questions. Some of this may seem incredibly dumb. Please assume that I have an understanding of Linux, but I am very new to Android Development. I've simply read the guide that Lox posted, then taken a 'learn whilst I work' approach. So...
1. How do I edit the 'Software Number'? (I can't seem to find it)
2. If I start again with a clean, AOSP 2.1 rom, how do I make it use Rosie? It can't just be a case of putting the Rosie.apk in the right place can it?
3. If I want to select which apps/widgets appear and where, do I edit the relevant XML which contains the Screen/X/Y locations?
If/when I have more questions, I'll post them here!
Thanks in advance
1. Sorry dont know,
2. No you need to add all the framework files, quite a few of them I think.
3. system/customize/mns/default.xml
Dan
Thanks Dan. I have the Framework files, so that's easy enough.
I suspected it was the default.xml, so thanks again.
Anyone know the answer to my first question?
I think that it is somwhere in build.prop but I can be wrong.
1. No idea what you mean by 'Software Number'
2. com.htc.framework.jar and friends need to be added to init.rc's BOOTCLASSPATH var ... so at the very least, you need to provide a custom boot.img ... that rules out adding it over other custom ROMs ... on top of that all the Rosie related /system files need to be present...
3. yes - that default.xml is the place ..
Good luck ...!
(Side note ... Why oh why would you want to add sense!)
hey New to the xda fourms but looking for some information about skinning I got a few questions which I've trolled over xda very little and some other sites that never directly point me in the direction I'm looking to go. I have worked with linux is in the past. ex puppy linux which I was very fond of for user information about anything to do with puppy. but I have just learned from trial and error . anyways my questions are as follows.
1.I'm wanting to build a skin for rcmix 3d ver.4 creating sense 3.5 New look and feel while changing icons for a list of apps besides the skin and sense,how do I go about changing icons/skins in apps I download?
2. what programs do I need to take on this task?
3. I am currently not using linux,using windows7 to do this, is this going to matter? or should I switch to a linux based os?
in the end all I wanna do is change the bling appel of my phone with my own custom look not someone else's idea. a basic point in the right direction would be a big help. I my even post some skins to add to the dhd world.thanks in advance.
I want to ask the same questions:
1.I'm wanting to build a skin for rcmix 3d ver.4 creating sense 3.5 New look and feel while changing icons for a list of apps besides the skin and sense,how do I go about changing icons/skins in apps I download?

If you want to get away the easy way, then:
1. Download rom of your choice (.zip format)
2. Extract framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from that zip file (you'll have to look in the data folder).
3. Go to UOT kitchen and go to file upload tab and then select "upload system files" then upload the ones you've just extracted.
4. Once they are uploaded, you can browse through all the tabs and select things of your choice.
5. When you're finished selecting, go to Sumery tab and cook your files.
6. Wait for 5-10 minutes then go to pickup tab and you should have your .zip ready for that specific rom
7. Flash the .zip
8. Enjoy!
Note: For every rom, the framework and systemui.apk is different so for every different rom you'll have to extract those files from .zip file of that rom
hey thanks,I have been looking at that kitchen cooking but I'm looking for a more manual approach at doing things. can I do that same step guide but manually skin it myself?
how do I manually recompile after I'm done?
I have been creating icons for a little over a week with gimp on windows on free time with a theme in mind looking for more of a one of a kind idea and then maybe adding themes to the dhd network after I get a handle on it, so looking to create theme packs. I been trying to do it with a few apps but I can't get the icons out of the apps to show up when I pull it apart so I figure I'm missing something I would need to go about doing my work. am I missing extensions I need to complete this?

To change the icons in downloaded apps you will need to decompile the apps apk then change out the icon in the app, them recompile. Mind you it will get replaced again when the app updates. A search would lead you to many themeing tuts on XDA
Hi, I'm sorry if this is a silly question. But how do I install Themes for the xperia arc S. I found a few themes that I would like to install, what should I do ? Do I need to download them into my phone ? or can I download them directly into my SD card? I'm sorry but I'm really new to android and dont want to take any risks in breaking my device. thanks i advance.
anyone ? just point me towards the thread and ill read it myself. thanks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213888
I suggest start here..
download the themes, extract, copy to sdcard, then install the apks
hope this helps
Look around or use the search function, dude.
It's not hard to find articles like that and wait before posting again.
I dont get it, I'm reading some of the guides here to install themes and they sounds complicated with replacing files and setting permissions. On the other hand, I browsed the web out of this forum and found out that I can simply install ADW Launcher and download themes very easily that way. What are the differences between these 2 methods ?
Replacing makes it inbuilt while awd launcher overwrites i.e. It's above default inbuilt theme. For the first method, you need to root your phone and need a root explorer.
Feel free to write if you are not aware .
Press thanks
