I am a photoshop user and I would like to learn how to access the HTC Hero lockscreen so I can customize it myself. I want to change the slider bar specifically. Could someone help me learn how to acces the .png files and how to replace the stock ones with the ones I create?
I currently have rooted and loaded Fresh 2.1.2 (props to flipz for the creation). I have tried lockbot, but the free version is not all that great. It still has limits to the customization. I refuse to pay for something I could do myself with a little education. Please help!
I will be happy to post any of my creations for the free use of others if I can get this working.
Thanks for everything!
Good for you wanting to learn to mod the hero...
I think this guide should help answer your questions: http://androidforums.com/all-things-root-sprint-hero/48610-guide-creating-custom-lockscreens.html
If all else fails try the Android Development forum for our phone and good luck!
cool, thanks for the link. I actually ran across that after I posted my question. I'll see what I can do with that info. I appreciate you helping me out.

Hey Devs
I tried it myself and half worked the other half didnt lol
basically would like the clean theme for adwluancher but with all the icons changed to metro androidphone7 style in the app drawer. i have a big icon pack for it but i just dont have the knowledge to implement every app. i seem to be getting half the names wrong of the icons cause they wont show up. if someone could please do this it would be great. im on a galaxy s. there is alot of other people out there that i know really wanted me to get this theme done but i couldnt so it would be appreciated by alot of people on the market and in the forums
Thanks in advance for any dev that takes ths project on
Okay so first of all, let me just say, I have no idea when it comes to creating a theme for any platform, so nothing I post up here will never be created because I just don't 1, have the time to learn how-to and 2, I don't want to learn how to, excuse my ignorance.
However, I do know my way around photoshop, so with a spare hour at work today, I started to create this.
By all means, if someone with the knowledge wants to take a shot at converting this, go for it, just let me know before you do .
*Few more icons added!
*What the homescreen could/might look like.
It's very simple and eye attractive, looks good. i can't do anything though, same as you in that department.
Clearly this isn't going to go anywhere, worth a try though.
Sadly, I do not have any practical experience in this subject, but this topic does have a tutorial on what you need to do http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8504851&postcount=2(the topic currently says that the tutorial is 'temporarily down..' so just keep checking it, I would assume he is modifying the tutorial to make it work with gingerbread roms) To create the battery and the white app slider background, you would need to modify the Framework.res.apk
I think this theme looks great, although I do not know the limitations of themeing in sense 2.1 roms; so may need to ask an experienced themer on which method to take, flashable.zip or Skin Chooser theme.. My best advice is to ask the guy who made the thread I linked to you, as he has converted many themes, if he has the time; and you can supply the images, you'll have a working theme in no time
I already cooked the frameword-res.apk last night, it looks odd because the kitchen doesn't theme the recent apps section so that has got the carbon black look that Sense has, I think the theme would be really nice and clean, and could be done in a variety of colours to treat each persons needs. Simple and effective!
If anyone would like the cooked framework let me know, like I said, it's far from done. We'll call it Version 0.0.0.1
Looks really nice, clean and minimal
Would like to se it finished and in some darker color - greyish
That's what I was just saying, in a variety of colours so each user could choose their own from a selection. Like I said, I'd happily finish creating this but only if it's going to go somewhere.

Maybe you could pm he_stheone64 about help to do this, he knows his way around theming with the new gingerbread framework. As I understand a few things has changed from the old 2.1 to the new 2.3 release.
Hope this will succeed for you
I don't WANT to approach anyone, if someone has some spare time on their hands and wants something to do, I'm sure someone will say they would like to convert this for us. All I want to know is whether or not I should finish the PSD's, VOYE VOTE VOTE

Ohh you misunderstood me I didn't mean that should approach him for him to do this theme, just as a heads up for you to get help on how to theme. My bad I misread your first post
Nah it's cool, don't worry about it lol, if enough people want this finishing, I probably wil contact someone to see if they would like to collaborate on it.

Hi,
I am new to this site and have been looking through all the different themes, but I can't find exactly what I am looking for and I have no idea how to go about making a theme myself. I have searched everywhere for a particular theme, but can't find anything even close, anywhere. Would it be possible to request a theme here? I have an LG Optimus phone. I would like the main color to be a light pink and more of a smooth wallpaper look, rather than a tiled wallpaper. I don't like a cluttered look at all. I really like the "girly skulls" and was hoping to have that be the main theme. Not the real looking skulls, but more of the cutesy girl skulls with big eyes and bows. If anyone can help me, It would be greatly appreciated. Below are some of the skullies that I like to give you an example of what I am talking about. And, I also love peace signs. If that could be incorporated into the theme at all without cluttering up the screen, I would love that!
If I shouldn't have posted this here, I truly apologize. Just let me know so that I can post it in the proper place.
Welcome
Hmmm try the search button I bet its already there
Otherwise make it yourself

Hi all,
I never posted so much here, but for years you have been my guide to root and hack all my phones.
So, just for hobby, I've started developing CM12 themes
To thank you for all your help, I want to share the first theme I've done.
I know is not perfect, I'm still working on it so any suggestion will be appreciated.
I read te rules of the forum, so this is the complete version actually present on the play store.
I leave the link to the paid version if someone would like to donate, I kept the price very low, I don't want to become rich, but I need a hand to pay my car
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cdteam.elixir.full
Hope you enjoy my work
thanks!
hey, nice theme! but need to adjust the color in SMS and correct gap button in the keyboard space bar
