Theme question - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all, I am new to this an have learned a great deal in the last month, I spend just about all my free time on this forum. I am currently running Cyanogen's 3.8.6.1 on my G1. Will the themes for his 3.9.7or8 work for my current rom? I do like the Hero themes and actually ran DrizzyJacNewVison3.2and it was beautiful and smooth but did not like the fact that I could not get full 3g and was not receiving all my text messages. I installed Cyan. 3.9.7 on my son's G1 and he alot of forclosures so I flashed his to JF1.5 because he liked some of themes that were out there for that bulid. I have looked in the theme section and can only find a few themses specifically for this build. I am not looking good enough? Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

If the theme doesn't say specifically that your ROM works with this theme, then the theme won't work. You have to download a specific version for each release of a build, especially between Cyan's.

I would wait till Cyanogen releases his 4.0 stable build, that way you can get the latest themes for it. Cyanogen makes lots of changes in the files which are also themed. Putting one such that is newer than the rest of the ROM will cause many problems.

Request : For A Pink Theme For All The Ladys

My problem is i'm a noob to android and i'm on all the android sites everyday just reading and trying to learn. I have 2 eris , bogo free, one that hasn't even being used on a plan and the other one (wife's phone) which as soon as 2.1 came out I upgraded. The leaked 2.1 runs great and my wife loves her eris but I would like to install some of the custom themes for her and also enable OC and Wifi tether. But I dont know how to compile kernals etc. So if anyone would like to write a pink theme (pink keyboard, background, etc.) or point me to one that is already out I would appreciate it and im sure there are other female eris users who would like it also. So Thank You in advance for any help.
Also I realize I can install this on the leaked 2.1 phone but I'll just deactivate that one and switch to the other phone that has never been used and has 1.5 to get root.
I agree... my Gf would love something pink themed.
There is a pink sensable theme. I don't remember where it is but I have the file if ya want to pm I can email it to ya... I believe it was called droiddoespinksensable or something of that nature.
I'm not taking credit for it but this what I found if you're rooted.
I have the link if you want it. For some reason it wont let me post it here.

I tried the link but androidforums seems to be down right now. Do you happen to know anything about this theme. OC, tether, etc. Thanks I'll keep checking androidforums to see when the site is back up.

I made the DroiddoesPink rom. it was based off of senseable. I posted it on Android Forums. My wife then informed me that she wanted a Twilight them so I did that. The pink them will be a little outdated as in not haveing the overclocking and some other fixes but I could upgrade it to include all that if I can ever find some free time lol.....when Android Forums comes back up you can check it out and I will see what I can do with it.
That sounds great I'll check it out when the site comes back up. Will it have a new version number if you add OC etc.
The theme looks great just a couple of questions.
1. Can I change the background image to one of the ones I posted.
2. Can I flash the OC update that posted here on XDA.
3. Does this have wireless tether already.
4. And finally since I'm a noob is there anything that I haven't asked for that if you were doing an update to this theme that you would include.
thanks I think my wife will love this theme.

1. I can add them to the rom if you would like or you can just put them on the sd card and set them under pictures.
2. I will enable OC in the rom before I post an updated version.
3. Yes it already has wirless tether.
4. I will add apps2sd also. I will pretty much update it so everything is current in the rom.
Sounds great i appreciate your quick responds i'll looking for the update.
I really appreciate this Conap, i've been looking for a theme like this for my wife's phone too. She liked the one you already have up but i told her if you would update it i'll flash it for her. Just one question. Are system updates disabled?

System updates are disabled. The update rom is uploading now and I will post when the link is ready. I won't have time to do a whole write up tonight on it but basically it has OC apps2sd and based on newest leak now. Overclock goes up to 864 I believe but I would not recommend going over 768. My phone locks up any higher then that. The pink isn't 100% complete so you will see some blue or green pop up here and there but most of the major stuff is pink. I'm concentrating on my erislightning roms's right now so won't have time to really polish this up anytime soon so If anyone wants to work on it let me know and I will update the post with credit to that person. I did add the 4 wallpapers suggested at the beggining of this thread and they are found in the default wallpaper folder if you want to change between them.
http://www.multiupload.com/4KKEB70BPQOk here it is...sorry I don't have more time to do a good overview of up but its pretty much stock themed with pink and apps2sd and overclock added, ota disabled. should be a pretty stable rom.....DroidDoesPink2.0 Rom
Edit: seems Android Forums is having problems again so here is direct link to download..DroidDoesPink2.0.zip
thank you for the theme I showed it to my wife and she loves it. I'll post any issues and thanks again it should be popular with the ladies.
Hey Conap, do you have that twilight themed rom posted anywhere and/or some screenshots of it? There might be others out there that might be interested in it if you have the time.
BTW, really cool of ya to update the pink rom for everyone. It even caught my wifes eye. Now maybe she'll let me root her eris.
Just finished downloading, md5 is 6f1bbcd11060acf9b4c62b41129c973e is that correct?

Show her speed benefits and show off some LWP, that along with the pink theme was enough for my wife to allow me to root. I made her do it herself, think it's necessary to do it yourself to learn at least a little. Oh have her type out all her apps, my wife was pretty ticked when she lost all of her apps.

I never released the twilight theme and haven't updated it for my wife yet either. It was pretty much my Eris Lightning rom with some Twilight Icons and wallpaper and the dialer keys were a little different. When I update it I might post it but not really sure when that will be...

I went ahead and flashed it. She loves it. Everything seems to work good. Thank you. I hope your baby gets well soon.

So far i have only been working with the latest Cyanogen rom. Not sure about others.
I'm a noob. Will it be easy to install? I have no Earthly understanding of how to make these themes work, and all the instructions I've seen just go right over my head.
Anyone know of any good video instructions?
OP, great work by the way. Looks badass. If I can figure out how to install it when you release it, I know I'm going to like it.
framework works great in my hero using cm 5.0.7 b7..launcher crash.
IM TALKING ABOUT HTC HERO THAT IS NOT MEANT TO USE THIS THEME,NOT G1!!
i guess this is a noob question but can i just get the status bar and notification menu to work on a cdma hero?
if not, its still a great looking theme

Themers: Your new best friend -

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737526
Daneshm90 made a sweet computer app (only for Windows ATM) to take the PNGs from one theme or rom and transfer them to another, easily and effectively theming the new rom with little effort. Right now you have to make sure that it is MDPI type stuff, so no higher class phone themes will work just yet. I think he might be finding a way around that. You can still grab themes from lots of phones like the G1, Hero, etc etc and you can use 2.1 themes for Froyo roms and such as well. I made a Buuf themed Cyanogen Tazz rom and a pink themed CELB Froyo rom for a friend that was from a 2.1 rom. So far so good... Did not have success with using Droid roms as they are HDPI. Soon though...soon... lol Feel free to stop in that thread and say thanks or ask questions. He seems quick to answer and be helpful. Since I have done a few (hey, failed ones count, you learn what NOT to do...) I might be of assistance as well. Enjoy!

[Q] Kspec theme interest..

Im looking for a kspec theme for my CM6 rc-2... is there any that can go on this rom??
im literally new to rooting.. i rooted my nexus one like 3 hours ago lol.. all the information im getting is from the here and searching the net..
if there is not a kspec theme for this rom do i have to go back and get cm 5.0.8? i used the one click method as well.. btw i love the new look! haha..
do i use metamorph for the theme? or do i have to flash it?.. (if there is a kspec theme out there for me)..
Another thing, if i do flash another rom, can i just flash it over the one i have without wiping anything?.. (i hated installing and updating all my apps and information again) ..
if there is a kspec theme out there that i can use, how do i use it?? (like getting it installed) lol
Any great suggestions on a great kspec theme!?
thanks for your time guys, i really appreciate it! all the information i take in from here has helped me understand soo much! also bragging to my friends about what my nexus one can do haha =]]
p.s. again, im really new to rooting, so if you could please hold off on the "short term" names and actually spell it out and describe it to me (until i get on ur guys' level), that will be very much appreciated!
I wish man, BrandenK (the maker of Kspec) got an Evo so they are getting all the love right now. He has said he's gonna port it over but not until CM6 comes out of beta since they are pumping out the updates like nobodies business over there in the Cyanogen camp. Hold tight, hopefully it will be ported over eventually.
Oh ok.. thanks for the update man

[Q] Are there any good flashable themes for the latest CM6?

I cant find one anywhere....well i found this one, but when i flash it, it goes back to cm6.0...doesnt stay to cm6.0.2, shoot, id even take that one, anything beats the stock theme!!! remember, im looking for a Flash theme. i dont like using side apps to make a theme, just because it takes up memory, kinda like "winterboard" for iphone. and 2nd, its an aria...the phone is awesome, just wish it had that nexus one performance!
forum.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?/topic/20-theme-extremely-blue-for-cyanogenmod/
anything you guys know, would be a lot of help. thank you!
I think you want to look for ADW.Launcher themes and they are different for the 2.2 android version. ADW has released 3 or 4 on there web site.
agreed im looking for a good flashable theme as well...not something to use through adw launcher....besides i modified my zip rom and i use laucher pro...wich doest have themes...so if anyone knows of a place to find flash themes please share it

The only way I've been able to make changes is using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775970. Other than that there really is no other flashable theme that I've found to work. Please post anything you guys find.

thanks for this link...i just tried this and its awesome for some reason the aria isnt getting any love when it comes to the flashable themes...but its getting love in other places so thanks to all the developers who put the free time into making our aria better...and thanks again zeyoner for this link
Np, I share your pain.
I've been searching high and low for themes and nothing. There's only one and it's called extreme blue. If you want the link I can dig it up for ya. It's not a flashable theme it's a whole ROM install.

i hate that theme...lol...i think its poop...and its a full rom w/ the blue just cm6 not 6.0.2
Give it just a few more weeks! Since the stable build of CM has been out, its not too far behind that someone will have some decent themes. I am learning, and going to work on 1 myself.
It's sad that there is sooo much support for themes in other forums.
Agreed other phones are getting plenty of theme love...but the aria just ain't getting it....but hopefully it will soon

I agree it's an ok theme, I grew tired of it pretty quick. I've attempted to contact creators of other themes that I like that are avaliable for the G1 but no replies. I guess not too many people have the Aria.
well whatever you guys figure out. i wish it looked like bx-destiny.but instead of orange and black...what about a deep blood red color. anyways...i loaded it on one of the earlier alpha releases of cm6, but there is no wipe to answer or the end call button....weird...i guess not set up for the aria, which is nothing but a touch-screen. anyways....if anyone could figure out if we could get that theme for our phones, i think id stop *****ing about themes. id like a professional/fun look to it w/ black widgets like google search since i use that thing like underwear. any help would be greatly appreciated. and there has to be the "Aria Samaritan" somewhere right???
right then, ill pray for the Aria Saint who creates this theme.....

I so agree I too like and installed the Bx-destiny by LordSeth theme on a earlier version of cm6 for the Aria and had the same issues, with the newest cm6 release it doesn't work at all. I even posted complaining and asking if there is any plans to release a Aria version and got no answer. The creator doesn't seem to know english very well either. I would really love to see that theme on the Aria. I'm ok with the orange, red would look nice and so would a nice blue. I'm not picky!
