[HELP] How to change SystemUI default colors to AOSP-like? - Sony Xperia T2 Ultra

I'm stuck with a T2 Ultra (D5306) since it was a hand-me-down phone, and I've debloated it as much as I could without using the de-bloat script (It deletes some lib files that make mobile data not work with Mexico Stock )
I've uninstalled all themes (and theme manager), but the default theme isn't the nice Lollipop AOSP theme, but instead this ugly blue greenish theme with orange accents and it bothers me quite a bit.
I've seen some posts that have SystemUI mods to make it AOSP-like but the links are down. :crying:
I've already tried modyfing SystemUI.apk but the colors in there seem to match the AOSP ones?
If anyone knows a way, please let me know :highfive:

[THEME][JVB] Yet another AOSP stock-like theme

I've built this theme from pieces found in other mods. I'm not a designer nor a developer but I like to personalise what I'm using.
Also, I truly like the stock gingerbread look so, I've tried over the last few weeks various combinations of colours and images in the framework and applications. Because I really like how everything came out and maybe I'm not the only one liking stock stuff, I thought to share it.
The main credits are going to Ock and Darkyy because I've used mainly elements from their work.
This theme will NOT be maintained over time and I welcome anyone who think that certain things can be improved, to modify it accordingly. Of course, the obvious bugs will be corrected as it will be found or indicated.
The theme is tested on a deodexed JVB rom so I wouldn't recommend trying it on any other rom.
This theme has:
- AOSP lock screen only
- CRT screen off animation
- Green glowing overscroll
- lockscreen, phone and clock are sharing the same style for the interactive buttons (for unlocking, answering phone and turning off alarms)
- clean battery stats (no percentage)
- gingerbread launcher included
The theme is CWM3 flashable .. but please mount in advance the /system partition (from the mounts and storage cwm menu).
I personally use ADW launcher with gingerbread look and I've used the icons from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=870691
Enjoy (or not ) ...
http://www.multiupload.com/S0F8AY5VKJ
If someone wants I can provide the framework with the percentage over the battery (but will no longer look stock-like).
Nice theme, I love it!
Hi ro_explorer,
can you tell me where can I find (and how to install) only the AOSP lock screen...
I kinda like the stock TouchWiz (or I just got used to it) but the clock at the bottom of the locked screen is driving me nutz
thanks in advance!

Information
The homescreen is built into the theme when you flash it BUT it will only flash if you have the stock rom and dont have another theme installed ...no idea why but thats how it is .....
Market
Ive found in my tests that the Honeycomb market isn't flashing.....is this because the new market has had an update ? ...probably ...
Here is the fix ....unless of course you want to keep the new market ...
You need something like root explorer ...
Download this file and unzip it - http://www.multiupload.com/4XEK0AYQU0
Move the vending.apk to system/app and replace
Move the com.android.vending-1.apk to data/app and replace..
Reboot , you should now have the honeycomb market
FONT
To get the above font in the screen shots, select sony sketch from the Revolution App and be amazed as the Honeycomb theme transforms
For those running other roms , download font changer from the market, unzip the file below and place in the font changer folder ...set /reboot ...done..

Bootanimation
Thanks to kellex
You need a kernel that supports custom bootanimation for this to work ...
Cognition has this for instance in 1.30/1
Place the zip in system/media using root explorer and reboot.........

The T-Mo Engine theme Honeybread is what this is based on and therefore very similar, but it was an unfinished project and lacks the polish of this theme.
Can't see any links as of yet? Is that due to Tapa?
Also wondering whether this will break the HW Acceleration on the stock browser?
Regards.
Oh.....my......days!!! I cant wait for this!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sent from my porn shoot using GT-I9100.
it is beautiful I'll wait that is compatible with kg2
Me too waiting for 2.1 VR
awesome,waiting for you to upload
Gorgeous. I can see me using this once the white text on white issue is resolved.
Just one word: amazing!
Good luck ironing out the bugs - especially the homescreen one!
(I guess you need a launcher other than TouchWiz for such a homescreen to work correctly?)
Looking forward to your release and upgrading to Cognition S2 v.1.20 in the meantime..
Can you take away "xda" in the middle of the home screen?
Nice theme.
Waiting....
Counting....
Regards
Theme looks great, will definitely check it out when the time comes.
Hope you do get the new market worked out, personal preference of course, but it does seem to run smoother on my phone.

[Request) Simple Color Changed Theme

Hey everyone. I know that you all have way to much on your hands already but I just wanted to throw something out there.
I am looking for a theme that is not very far from stock, actually it would be exactly like stock except instead of green colors everywhere, you would have a different color like blue. I would REALLY love one where the green was changed to purple or a purple/pink color but I would probably be the only one to use it so blue is ok.
Would this be a hard theme to make since not much is changing but the green color? I wish I knew how to do it. I am using the EK02 UnNamed ROM also and there aren't many theme options so maybe this could be one of the firsts.
You can try the ICS theme we have, some people have gotten it to work on UnNamed, some havent.
It's not that it's hard to change it all to pink, it is just very time consuming to change every single piece to pink. It could be something simple like just the battery & network Icons but going all out and changing the overscroll glow, dialer, and the framework etc. is a ton of work. Most of it requires working with .9 files which can't just be edited like a normal .png.
i think a red one would be awesome. blood blood blood.
i can imagine changing everything would be tedious. tracking things down in every menu, etc etc.
requires more patience than i probably have.

I made (edited) a theme chooser theme once for my motorola cliq on cyanogen and it was very time consuming and I had to work with a png9 editor and it did kinda suck...
If I could find a theme out there that was very close to stock....I would have no issues editing the icons myself and then sending it back to the owner for resigning or whatever needed to be done. I just can't find a theme that is close to stock LOL.

You would just download a stock rom and extract the images.

Combined rom programs from different phones

So I've just figured out that with some roms you can pic out the systemui from e.g. NeoV Rom. And replace it with a play Rom when both are based on 4.0.4
This doesn't work with framework though.
How can I change specific framework prog's without changing all?
Like I dont like squared gap icons, so I would like the original icon shapes. The rest of the Rom though ist brill as is.
Any advice?

[THEME]BuuF Theme[WIP][More Roms Supported]

Dont matter just dont Byte!!!!
This Is a Port from the Razr HD, please let me know if anything is missing or needs to be resized...thanks!!!!
This Should work on any stock deodexed rom, rage rom, but should also work on any moto hd rom...since its only pushing images to the appropriate folders.....please test what rom its working on for you!!!!
This was built based on Rage 2.1 and then updated to 2.2...going foward I wont have to update the theme as the rom updates as I am no longer pushing .apks rather pushing the res folders directly to the installed .apk (thanks villianroms for VRTheme)
I am not responsible for any damage to your phone, you assume all risk.
Here we go,
What we have here is a BuuF Theme, that is still a work in progress.
This theme looks best with the Buuf golauncher or ADW theme and lockscreen theme, however I plan to theme the stock Moto launcher and unlocker.
lots of the default plain arse black background have been changed to a more appealing dark brown.
The homescreen screenshot shows the updated 4g/signal/battery icons....the 4g icon is awesome....robots left eye is data in and right eye is data out, they emit an orange glow when they are activated, radioactive signal icons
so far here is whats themed:
contacts
deskclock
geniewidget
gmail
parts of homescreen (still working on this, as i have been useing golauncher and have it themed for this, but still want to finish this and stock lockscreen in the near future)
messaging
moto camera
moto email
phone
settings
systemUI
framework
miui apps added and themed:
MiFileExplorer
MiNotes
MiuiDeskclock
MiuiMusic
I also have made the corresponding BuuF GoLauncherEX theme and a BuuF GoLocker theme links at the bottom..
the clock in my screenshot is a beautiful widget with the andromeaBuuF theme applied (I plan to make my own to match this theme in the future)
as this theme is a work in progress, things can and will constantly change...
Please do comment and ask for requests, but please do know I work full time and have a family, so be patient.
as always make a backup first...I am not responsible for anything that could happen to your device!!!!!!
