Can any of these themes posted here work with the HTC Hero?
Who knows what is what right now. This subforum is a GIANT MESS right now. Every OP will have to go back and specify which theme is for which device. This was a foolish idea to mix everything up like this! BAD IDEA.....

I completely agree the three previous comments.
please put it back the way it was!
this is just a giant cluster f**k now (which will get worse once more android devices come out i imagine), even when/if all the OP are updated to specify which theme works for which ROM/phone itll still be a cluster ball and a lot to scroll through looking for ur specific ROM/phone
and im sure there will still be posts in the thread asking if this theme works with so and so phone/ROM or port to this phone or that phone because it is all mashed together.
wishfull thinking: please make themes again randum, ill give u my comp
not really but ur themes were my fav :]

Well, ROMs are device specific and all the themes list the ROMs which they are build for.
So why the need to list the device?
yeah man. its a real mess.

i was just thinking it might be easier for some people to just scan for HTC Hero (or whatever device) instead of glazing over the diff build numbers and names, but u do have a point
kinda redundant i guess huh lol
the thing that bugs me is that its just all lumped together
kinda lame to have to scroll through a buncha stuff that doesnt mean anything to me to pick out what does
p.s. just flashed android stock 2.0 *thumbs up*
WHere do I get HTC Hero themes??
Are there any out there... seems to me all the good themes are for the G1
Help Please 7 months later and it's still confusing..
it's impossible to porting this g1 themes on hero?
i really like a lot of themes for example darchstar but i can't morph it on my hero!!
I can't create themes but for me the images on framework-res are similiar on all devices
-sorry for my bad english-
It's only gotten worse for the hero. There is the gsm version and the cdma ones. There is also 1.5 and 2.1 out plus the custom roms such as Fresh and Modaco. Haven't seen a theme for this yet.
Go to the Themes subforum for the Hero. You are not going to find metamorph themes or very many flashable themes, but you'll have several options to apply ROMs with themes already in place.
If all else fails you can create your own by pulling files and packaging them up as a theme you like. Be sure to give credit where it's due.

Incorrect... The Cyanogen Mod 5.0.7-8 will work with HTC Hero ROM DarchDroid v2.6.5... Moving the eri.xml.
I've ran Nexus Themes for Cyanogen and a couple from here.
I have tried opening the original default GDE theme to give myself a basic template to work from. I edited many photos and have a theme ready to use, however I would love to change the name and information which is stored on the AndroidManifest.xml.
Last night I installed Eclipse and all android addons, however the AndroidManifest.xml in the GDE skin I've tried editing, will not open in Eclipse.
As I am new, I'm positive I'm doing something erroneous that's simple to fix or solve, but any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance to anybody who replies.
Jon.
Nevermind!
I'm an idiot, it literally took less than an hour of reading and investigating the xda forums.
Found the APKTool to edit and change the original GDE theme.
For those of you who actually look for themes for GDE still rather than metamorph, be looking for my themes.
Jon.
sounds promising.
.. GDE has been a bit dead lately..hopefully u can revive it.
I hope. I've tried all the home replacements, and GDE is the only one I'm really interested in. Anybody have any suggestions? I'm working on multiple colors of the hero first, nearly finished with them all..
If you all know any specific theme types I should work on that would target some crowd, all suggestions are appreciated.
theres a nexus, hero, cliq, and few other device ui's that are badass which have all been created..but no one has created an Espresso one..might wanna give that one a gander.
Funny, I didn't think of trying any of those, however the only one you mentioned having not being done yet, is the one that inspired me. Haha, I have an espresso one. It was created by someone I believe from this very community.

Thought I would show you guys what Myn has been working on this summer for his Evo. Great Job man. Wish you had an incredible. Good luck in the future.

he actually showed me a screen shot a few days ago and i told him that i wish he had a hero haha
come on incubus if anyone can port a build to the incredible its you,

I dont mind at all. I'm really not going to have much time for the vogue anymore anyways as I will be focusing on the Incredible. If Dzo releases a new Fresh Froyo, I might make a rls16 but other than that, probably not. Thanks for all of your efforts. Much appreciated.

i would actually like to thank you not only for your builds but i actually found an old theme porting guide that you posted on here and it used it to do my first theme port it worked almost totally without a hitch
lol. I just went back and read that theme porting guide that I typed out and it seems alot more complicated the way I wrote it. Im glad it worked for you. Glad you were not intimidated by it. Maybe it needs better wording.lol
haha it really wasnt that hard esp since i had used 7zip a few times before
WOW Myn has been hard at work.
one question please:
from a hardware stance the desire and incredible appear to be similar...
will the roms will cross over as well? due to upgrade soon and want to keep my options open
thanks in advance
tips the scales
wow, i was kinda iffy on getting the evo when sero premium became available... in less than 10 minutes... this definitely tips the scales in favor of the evo!
Thanks for all the kind words guys .
I really miss the Vogue forums and this great community.
Incubus, We need to talk Warm TwoPointTwo has been ported to the HTC Incredible. I just need to confirm it works.

Hero is definitely a different animal! I'd love to see it on that device though.
INC and EVO are so similar, porting is litterly a 1 hour process.
Hey Derek.... I'll trade you my hero for your evo?? The hero is way better, you won't regret it lol

I've jumped ship to the EVO myself and I am running myn's RLS1 (and eagerly waiting for RLS2). Rock solid, fast, and stable as anything you would expect from myn
His thread is about 127 pages long at the time of this post, only after a week of being released ... I guess he is becoming quite popular there too
Good job, myn!!

Since the G1 and the Mytouch 3G both got Honeycomb roms is it possible that we can port it to the Hero as well considering that the Hero and those other two phones have somewhat close specs?

I wasn't trying to trash you, just making a point that people need to learn how to search. While I admit 3.0 seems interesting, so does miui, sense 2.2, sense 2.3, AOSP 2.3, windows, palm, meego, etc. I like the stuff the dev's do for us, I just personally don't feel the need or see the benefit of posting new threads with this stuff. I figure if a dev wants to go for it, they will, and if they do, I'll try it, otherwise I just like what I can already get from their hard work, and I donate for that stuff. Just my opinion, no offense. And as for the link loop, lol, you will notice I did sorta go off on one of the OTHER threads started after yours.
Dev's are not just gonna feel like doing it unless they now ppl are interested. Someone in the G1 forum thought why not and posted a thread to see if someone would start it and they next day or so the had Honeycomb.
Well... I'm a total noob, but I am working on getting it ported over to the Hero cdma .. Will keep things posted.. GB rocks on the hero though.. so might just have to wait for 'ice cream's' release as it is a mix of GB n HC...

First post here
Had a Samsung Moment for my first android phone and had messed with it but was very unhappy with battery life. I have gotten (a used) HeroC and am looking to update to 2.2 or higher if possible as I would like to have the app2sd option since I am running out of space stupid quick. I am not looking for anything fancy although Sense would be nice to keep. So with this in mind I have 2 questions.
1. What version would you guys suggest.
2. Where is the best and easiest instructions to follow to do this.
Thanks!

First, the best advice you'll ever get on xda is search and read. Second, aospCMod 5/16 is 2.3.4 and based on CM7, it's amazing. For the sense look go into general android themes and apps and look for sense theme chooser themes in the theme chooser sticky thread. I hear NTsense is nice.

NTSense is wonderful. Combined with lpp Widgets, it is the closest you'll get to Sense without Sense.

Personally cannot justify spending that much on a phone but maybe after it has been out for awhile and comes down. Want to play with this Hero and see what can be done with it.

That is where it becomes very confusing while searching. So I find the following link http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=CDMA_Hero_ROMs which shows "aospMod - (11/5/10" but you suggest aospCMod 5/16. Also I am seeing references to radios? I do not recall stuff like that when I was messing with my Moment.
Not trying to be difficult, just trying to understand fully before I do this. I am not planning on getting into trying a bunch of different ones, I want to pick something that is solid and reliable and does not break anything. I see some references to the camera and other things not working sometimes.

This wiki will get you going in the right direction for a load of aosp's gingerbread rom.
Then you can use the NTSense theme to get your sense feel like others have said.

Thanks poashll. Was able to follow and almost everything is running smooth. VVM not working but I know there is a fix for that, just hard to understand the instructions. My other issue I want to get fixed is with the clock. I can pull it up but if I try to set an alarm it force closes. I find no threads on this issue.

aosp just dropped a new ROM, grab that one, it's 5/23.
Thanks for the heads up! That fixed the issue with the clock. Still working on getting Sprint vvm working. Ustream app is also broke with this but that is not a big concern.
