I was making one of many themes that i decided not to finish when i get to the boring part of editing the 9 pngs and changing the color of all them and thanks to stericson metamorph app. i decided i would share some parts of it. Here's the dialer should work with (Aosp 1.6).all i ask if you add it to a theme just give me credit for my work thx.
This dialer will not work with the Eclair dialer
sorry for the screen shots are from ddms
looks great! ill try it out
This looks awesome!!! Would love to see it in different colors and (if I dare to ask) ported to eclair dialer.
Thanks for contributing!!!!
how did you get the background to be like it is?
i am plaining on porting it to the eclair dialer. just don't know when i will have the time to. as for how i did it.i set the image of the gradient image in the back of the keys i made and and the numbers i added .as you can see i was going for the blackberry look but added my own text field the blackberry one was to plain simple to make but plain. cut them out to the size i needed

I have tried several times using GIMP to change the colors of some of the 9.png files in the drawables-finger folder in the Contacts.apk file. It just will not work out for me. All I do is use the colorize option or the channel mixer. The pictures (specifically the btn_dial_action_left_pressed.9.png, etc) will not show up right on the phone. I can't figure it out. If you can, I'd like to know.
i don't use gimp i use paint.net and a 13 year old cope of adobe photoshop.after you make the color change did you use the 9 png. tool you will need to

I tried the png 9 tool in the AndroidSDK package and was reading Damnitpud's walkthrough. The Eclipse part is what gets me because I don't understand it.

Kron2, do we need to apply to constacts.apk, phone.apk and framework-res.apk for this to work?
There are these 3 files listed. Which one?

It is for metamorph and will not work with the eclair dialer.you will need to pick all the apk.files to install for it to look the same .in framework is the top tab images

Thanks for the info.
No, I don't mean the app specific themes, I mean deeper than that.
Essentially I have a theme which I used entirely (up until I reflashed MCR and realised I love default Sense style ) but now I want only to apply the lockscreen and the notifications blind.. How would I go about doing this?
Also, what images make up the dock of Sense? Just incase I decided to mess with colours (folders on the phone and name please).
Thanks.
The dock of sense is in the folder res/drawable-port in Rosie.apk

Those are the default Home, not Sense..
EDIT: they were in drawable-port-480x320
If I want to apply them with Metamorph do I need to include every image in the drawable-port-480x320 folder or just the edited ones?
Also, anyone able to answer my other Q's?
Just the edited ones.
Anyone able to drop the names of the Lockscreen pull bar and the Notifications blind images?

Hi, folks. None of the Cyanogen-based roms seems to work properly on my Vogue (FC issues, sudden reboots, etc) and I really like the power controls bar in the notifications pull-down area that all those ROMs have. Is there a way to transfer that feature to Fat Free Froyo? Does anyone have any idea as to which files I should copy over and/or replace? I'm aware of the PowerControls widget, but widgets eat up battery and take too much space.
Thanks in advance.

Scooter's build is cm 6.1, probably easiest to put it in there if it's not there already.

None of the Cyanogen-based ROMs work properly on my Vogue as I said, so Scooter's ROM is not really a solution.
Want to try a bad hack ?
Because of that control bar is stand on notification area, Try to take these files from CM 6.1 in framework folder :
android.policy.jar
framework.jar
framework-res.apk
services.jar
Maybe need CMParts.apk and Settings.apk to work properly too in app folder.
Replace all those files in your build.
If it isn't work, you need to decompile their framework, configure their xml & implement it to your build. and also need to work with policy.jar.
I have themed my MT3GS with what I think is an awesome looking theme. The problem is I did not do any of the images myself, I picked, poked, prodded and pulled various images from some very great themed ROMs such as RemixedDarkBlue, ProdigalSunColorblind version, GTXSlide1.1, CR_mod1.35_OTA, BlackSlide1.3, and a few other various finds from different areas here on XDA. All different devs and versions and I can't really recall exactly what from where I pulled things from.
I did start off with doing a basic port of the BlackSlide1.3 into CM6.1.1 for the black keyboard and base of the theme, from there I opened up the .zip file and manually extracted and placed misc. images from the various ROMs I mentioned before and themed the icons, status bar, and color scheme of the overall ROM. I put the Fonts from the GTXslide in here as I like a little style. Hope you guys enjoy it.
This is the stable release of Cyanogen 6.1.1 base with a few of the apps removed, if you are already using that release just flash this over it to theme your rom. I did use the ADW App from RemixedDarkBlue as I like the trash on the bottom of the screen, and I like the icon in it as well. I placed that trash icon into the 3D Gallery to conform the rom slightly more ;-).

The question I have is how would I go about uploading this and offering this to the community while giving props to everyone I pulled images from? As I love how my phone looks and thinks others may as well.
P.S. I'll post Screenshots soon as I find a screenshot app if you guys would like a preview of how it looks. It's a Dark/Black theme.

Great attitude my friend, and to solve your dilemma you dont need to say the exact names of the authors, just point out the name of the themes and that the icons and stuff are not yours.... thats it, this is sharing comunnity so i dont think anyone would come and say "hey thats my icon" lol dont worry about it
Im glad we have some more people trying to contribute
Sounds awesome so far! I hope you find a way to package it all up.
As far as screenshots, I use "ShootMe", myself. Not sure what else is out there, but that one works well enough for me

Thanks, my kid and I had a blast taking screenshots with that app using the 'shout' option!!
Can you also possibly make this a metamorph theme file too? That would save me a lot of time

I didn't use metamorph to theme the ROM, I used something called Theme-Porter_beta_3 by Daneshm90 here in XDA. I can supply the files I got from the theme porter (aprox. 30 meg .zip file) for you to push into a CM6.1.1 ROM. In that zip I supplied the themed ADW from RemixedDarkBlue and the ADW that comes with the CM6.1.1. I Honestly just pasted those app and framework files into my CM6.1.1. (***NOTE=the ADWlauncher inside the app folder is the one that comes with the CM6.1.1, the standalone ADWlauncher is from RemixedDarkBlue***)
If you could point me in the direction of what metamorph program you use, maybe I can be of more assistance. I'd love to be able to package this in an easy to distribute kind of way if possible ;-).

Awesome! Haha, yeah I actually had that for a while before I found out you could change the way it takes a pic. :x Glad to hear you guys had fun though
As for the theme, I really like that unlock screen. Very slick!
Thanks, got the lockscreen slides from alt+dark posted in the dark hero theme from somewhere. **Reminder** none of themes images are mine, I simply found and compiled them all to make a singular theme

This is the app i use, http://www.appbrain.com/app/metamorph/stericson.xda.metamorph
for now this is the theme that i hav applied using metamorph http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...nse-201-cyanogenmod-61-stable-nb285-15122010/
but I really like how you made your theme dark n stuff its very nice , if you could make this into a metamorph theme it would be greatly appreciated, but if not its really no problem.
This is tremendous. Thank you so much for sharing.
Is there any way I can change ONLY the settings Menu?
Im reeeeeallllyyy liking it
What do you mean 'only' the settings menu? You want a different menu theme or something?

I like how my phone looks right now. I would only like to add this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=485783&d=1294675798
I see, can push the settings and settings provider apks from the .zip into your ROM via adb. if you like the font style, push /system/fonts. Hope that helps.
I realized after flashing this over CM6.1, the Menu button unlocks the phone ignoring what's checked/unchecked in Cyanogen Settings. Flashed Cyanoginger over this and it's back to normal. Could it be this theme or something else?
The menu button unlock deals with the 6.1.1 update, Cyanoginger is 6.1. All I've done was import image files. I didn't touch any of the .xml or any other base framework file. If you like 6.1, here is a link to 6.1.0. Hope that helps ;-)
Little spoiler though, I am working on a from scratch theme that will be dark in nature still, but will look kind of like brushed metal instead of shiny. I will be posting screenshots once I get all these keyboard/button transparencies and colors situated. This new theme will take a few weeks or so to complete because I will be doing everything from scratch. The Keyboard, selection buttons, radio buttons, check boxes, status bar and icons, and possibly the icons within the apps will be completely redone. I tried to learn the meta morph technique but find the Theme Porter that @migueltherocker turned me onto much better since it is very simple and works flawlessly. Feel free to post things you guys would like to see and I might try and implement those ideas into this next theme .
Snap.
I.
Thanks for the info. Keep up the good work!
Are you sure Cyanoginger is 6.1, though? The thread says 6.1.1.
Oh, my mistake. I know that the 6.1.1 has a known issue with the menu key unlock. Last I checked Cyanoginger was 6.1 and I believe the menu issue was not introduced until 6.1.1. I've only fooled with the image files and left everything else intact. Maybe the latest nightly removes the menu key issue? I'm simply running the latest stable 6.1.1 available on the CyanogenMod site. It never bothered me as the phone never leaves my side and I am attatched to it at the waist pretty much.
Alright, Just letting you guys know I am dropping making a new theme for CM.6.1.1 due to the CM.7 Nightly release. If anyone wants me to further work on 6.1.1 I will do so after I finish my first custom theme for CM.7. Otherwise I'll be dropping this project.
I'm currently running infinitum 2.1 and I like the galaxy s lock screen that came default with the captivate 2.2
I've searched for it to see if I could have it back but I couldn't find anything.. anyone have any links or files to help?m

it would require editing the framework, remove an existing lockscreen and add the xml from the old one, along with the image resources and a bit of troubleshooting and a blown weekend or two.. but it would be possible.
or you try a lockscreen replacer app, like miLocker or WidgetLocker

On another note, is it possible to install a live wallpaper .apk from KK4 on ICS? I tried a bunch of things with the individual .apk, but do I need the whole livewallpapers.apk or something else to do it?
Try out milocker...I know it has the Galaxy puzzle piece unlock and a bunch of others!!
