M9, HTC Sense Home - Theme - One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all. Lately I got some old M9 phone and found out that HTC theme service has defuncted, but it seem still works in my phone, I mean I still can change some colors and wallpapers. So yesterday I have been searching info about how all this stuff works and found storage location of the themes on my phone. It is something like android/data/com.htc.launcher/files/CustomTheme/com.htc.theme.custom.11468136-de37-4c97-9dc9-8e9fb19c94e1
So now I'm trying to find the way how to edit this files and add my own font into it also add icons pack and apply it manually. So need some help with it. Maybe here is some info how to make full theme with fonts and custom colors by editing files in storage.
Also Looking one dark theme from HTC Sense Home app that calls "Tilt Theme", maybe some one has it downloaded and can share with me would be nice cuz this theme has a good clock font that I want to have to myself

aHome x FreshFace x MyTouch Idea/Question

I've tried using FreshFace, aHome, and dxTop, but there are just some features I don't want and only a few I do want.
Is there any way to assign ONLY the icon package from a theme? There's an aHome HTC Hero Theme that has the most spectacular icons, but I don't want the additional screens and the drawer change.
This has to be possible somehow! Thanks in advance for any info.
to use just the icons would require repackaging every apk on your phone that those icons correspond to. you over-write the stock icons with the new icons. possible, but not practical. this is what a theme update does, but its done for you by the theme creator, they already repacked it with the new images/icons. of course they dont repack everything, only certain ones they want.
maybe you can edit the theme file, remove all the other stuff n only keep the apks you want. then resign it and update it.
Bettercut?
Open home gives you the options of Skin / Icon, so i'm pretty sure you can assign any icon theme to any skin theme.

[Theme] MrInc_Theme_CM-5.0.8-DS (Black Bar) [6-19-2010]

Thanks for all the hard work Cyanogen and Team. You Rock!
This is a simple theme for CM's Live Stable Eclair 5.0.7-DS. MrInc_Theme_CM-5.0.7-DS It has a Black Bar. Some of it has been collected from other Themers. Some has been created by me. I start with CM's files and replace PNGs only. The 5 APKs I edit are Framework, Launcher, MMS, Email, and Settings. The wall paper I used is from Ubuntu a few versions back.
5/20/2010 - Test7 changed the ballgame on me. I thought I was having problems getting the clock color to change from black to white. Turns out, it is now a feature of Test7. After flashing my theme you will need to go into Spare Parts and change the color of the "Date" and the "Clock". The fun thing is now you are not limited to what I choose for you. You can choose from several colors. Kewl! I also discovered which .9.png to modify to get the search to have a black background. Enjoy!
5/27/2010 - Updated to include a couple of edits to ADW.Launcher.0.7rc3 Just to keep it inline with my taste. It is a full version with my theme edits applied. Awesome work AnderWeb! Donation coming your way. Link below.
06/05/2010 - Here we go again. I can't help myself I've started down the road on the new CM-5.0.8-DS test builds. My slightly themed ADW Launcher hasn't changed and it still works well with the new test1.
06/06/2010 - I changed some more icons. I didn't like what I had done to the bright popup PNGs. I changed that back to the white instead of the biegie-gold. I also cleaned up the CD image in Music so it doesn't have the black background. That is now transparent.
06/07/2010 - Updated for CM-5.0.8-DS-Test2. Fixed the USB Debugging notify icon. Somehow, I don't know how far back, the DPI for the icon was set slightly off. It was 71.986dpi instead of 72dpi. (go figure) I changed the USB Connected icon color from my previous yellow to more of a gold color. I changed the Bright popups to a more opaque white with a gold beveled edge. I like it better than the biegy-orange color I had before (Dirty Blueshirt liked) and I like it better than the transparent white. Not much else changed except CM has incorporated ADW's Launcher into the Test ROM (three cheers for CM!) So you don't need to flash the ADW.Launcher after my theme.
06/10/2010 - I had some problems with Test3 and Test4. I ended up having to wipe and reflash. I don't think it was anything to do with the Theme. I was having some lag issues when trying to make or answer phone calls. All is well now. Since 3 and 4 happened so quickly I ended up skipping 3. I had to make some adjustments with my files and locations to match the new Settings layout including SpareParts and ADWLauncher. I really like having that all together now.
06/19/2010 - Nothing much changed in my stuff. I just updated it to work with CM-5.0.8-DS
It's old school... I haven't got into the metamorph yet.
Copy to SD
Nandroid backup (always)
Flash the zip
Enjoy!

It's open to anyone, but you need to login with your google account.

Widget
pretty awesome looking theme can someone tell me where to find that 1X4 widget with the weather and time? I've been looking all over for it ... thanks in adv
mine is actually weather widgets 1x2 and digital clock 1x2 the one in the market with the clouds on the icon. The one you are looking for is actually Beautiful Widgets. I was looking for it too.
I was using the Weather Widgets flip clock but it constantly stopped keeping time. They have a weather service to help stop that but it was killing my battery. I'm having other problem with weather widget now so I may just drop that completely and use the Beautiful Widgets clock.

[Q] ** Flashing/Changing Icons **

NEED some help..
I got this desire, flashed on cm7 from crackflashers: s-off+cm7 patch
i decited to change some icons, but i can't do it
i've read some threads @ xda but didnt find and solution
I've used bettercut, but that is some of a wack ass app, i want to change mulitple icons not one-by-one
i want icons like the iphone has it with some background kinda like the miui
please help me out..
yes my english is bad..
Ok well there are several ways to change icons (some ROMs i believe even come with the standard sense apps icons already changed) the problem with a batch change is that the app would have to figure out which program to apply which icon to . You have much more freedom changing one icon at a time IMO

[Q] Change the icons on the status bar

I am not sure if this is in the right spot but it said Q&A so thinking its a good place to start. I am looking to find out if I can change the status bar icons to be colors. I amd running [JB:CM10:HYBRID][OFFICIAL]ParanoidAndroid 2.55 for T989[18 Nov 2012] (Love it btw) so I guess the best way to word this is I use go sms pro for txting and the icon that comes up when I get a txt is a very nice noticable green color and I know I have a txt in a quick glance, I also have the facebook app and when I get a notice from facebook its a white and so are my mail and all the other icons so it is hard tell the diffrents between them. so I was wonding if there was a way to change this or if there is a mod for it. if anyone needs more info I am happy to post it. Thank you
If you would like to modify some of the notification bar icons you would have to modify some images in the system framework of your phone which would be difficult if it's your first time.
The easier way to change them, is that since you're using a CM10 ROM you can try out some CM10 Themes from the Play Store. Click here to view all of the available themes.
All the themes will help you change the overall look of your phone, that includes the notification icons. You will just need to apply the themes with the Theme Chooser application. Cheers!
