Database Develop

[Theme] Kspec Tiny - for the newest CyanogenMod - only 4 MB! [10/29]

This is compatible on CM 4.2.+ because I only change a couple of files that rarely change anyways.
Just wanted to share my next-generation of themes. I only replaced the framework, mms and launcher files to keep the theme as small as possible while maximizing results. This makes the theme file only 3.65MB in size yet still gives you the awesomeness of Oreo, pink from pulse, the dark status bar and icons from hero, some inverted icons and animations from blur, and finally the speed of CyanogenMod.
Changed Files:
Code:
- mms.apk
- launcher.apk
- framework-res.apk
Installation Instructions:
Code:
- Download the attached file from this post.
- Place the downloaded file on the SD card of your phone.
- Reboot your phone into Recovery by holding the Home button.
- Flash my file and then reboot.
Uninstallation Instructions:
Code:
- Download the original ROM you had before flashing my file.
- Place the downloaded file on the SD card of your phone.
- Reboot your phone into Recovery by holding the Home button.
- Flash the original ROM file over my work replacing everything back to default and then reboot.

gonna give it a flash rite now great work on this small theme my gf luvs it

Simple, yet nice and elegant. Thank you very much.

Nice job as usual! a good combination of things from other themes and the small file size is always a plus.

the alldroid.org website...do we have to reallie register to get the attachments before i didnt have too now it keeps saying i dont have permission to dl it please help..

Exactly what I've been waiting for, thanks Branden, I was just trying to mash some of the pink pulse stuff into your Oreo for Cyan and figured I'd check to see if you added Pulse yet and even better you mashed them up already.

Its because you have to register to download the files at that site that I am hosting this here for you guys. Before I posted everything on sites like sharebee.com but they disappear after a while and I want to keep a catalog of my work and find an all android base camp which is why I made the switch. Like I said in the first post, this is perfectly stable and awesome in every way but if you want to always get my newest updates and check out my other work it might be worth the 2 minutes it takes.

This is by FAR my favorite theme out right now. Can you port this for Akirah's latest ROM? Puh-puh-pleeeease? I've been having a lot of trouble with 4.1.999. Keep up the dope work!

I like this theme a lot, thanks for posting it.

Don't really understand why this Theme isn't getting much attention, it is incredibly slick, very nicely done and only 3.5 megs, I hope you keep updating this next generation theme.
Been waiting for .9999, I've tried others but this one is the one for me.
Thank you for the hard work and innovation.

Another update for my followers on XDA

Ey man.
This is my favorite theme.

That and the powerapp being unskinned is the only thing stopping this from being the perfect theme imo.
All I want is a nice black theme that is light and doesn't change the way cyanogen works...

Awesome theme..

Yea been using oreo since day one and it never fails.....but.....haven't flashed this one because of the Pink.

A version with stericson lockscreen would be nice

Really like the theme. Im using it now, just one minor request, can ya change the pink when you click on stuff to another color, any color? Green,blue,red,something other than pink? lmao, but seriously its an awesome theme. Thanks for all the work on it.

Hey, new here but this theme seems to be my favourite. None of the others seem to do it for me, they just dont seem complete or have slight design flaws. Nice job on this im just checking your others out. Mae sure you port this or create a new one with green for the new cyanogen

I don't even want to move to CM 4.2.1 until this theme is compatible.
Thats how much I like this theme.

I think I'll post the first beta in the next hours, maybe minutes....there's still a couple of things I have to resolve

Ok, it's almost ready, I just to check wich colour do you prefer for notifications, here are 2 options:

thats not fair lol

I'm gonna try this theme
It looks simple and clean

mirror added

I love the theme, but I would like to make a few suggestions if I may. There's a few things that I think would polish this theme up nicely. Themed Advanced Launcher, Stericson lockscreen option and the changing of "menu" to "apps" on the launcher.
Let me explain that last one. I'm not really a fan of it saying "menu" down there as my G1 also says "menu" below it (on the button) and the two "menu"s do two different things. It's a nitpick, but I think "apps" is better.

[REQ] Black Notification Bar for eclairOG rom

I was just wondering if any themer out there could make a simple black bar for eclairOG v1.11(preferrably somewhat glossy) with a round battery icon (used in MAT-Theme, I believe its made by kspec?)
A lot of people have been asking for a black bar in the thread so I figured id try to get a themer's attention. Thank you!

To make things easier for the theme devs heres the link to the ROM
EclairOG:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=620673
and this is the theme that contains the notification bar and battery icon, id like. Thanks!
MAT-Theme:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5139150#post5139150
heres a screenshot of it:

OOhhh yes...Desperatly waiting for this

i am too, I really want it. i have really basic knowledge about theming, ive been trying to get it done myself, but all i get are bootloops...lol

I really hope someone does this haha. or a full sense/hero theme for eclair

Id be happy enough with just the black bar. I managed to modify the framework-res.apk a lil bit but all it flashed was the battery, pulldown menu and the lil network icons, but the bar still comes up white even though i used the black images from the MAT theme, eclair is so much different than donut when it comes to theming, im not asking for much, just the black bar so hopefully someone will do it, because a ton of people are asking for it on the ROMs thread.

http://android-theme-minus.googlecode.com/files/eOG-new.zip
I haven't tested it. I really don't feel like spending the 30 minutes or so to set my unused G1(s) up to test it out, so nandroid before trying it.
It has the pull down, notification bar icons, and status bar from the MAT theme (all credit to the creators of the images used).
http://android-theme-minus.googlecode.com/files/simple_black_bar.zip
There are the images I used for it along with the steps I used for colorChangev3.jar based on what the images looked like.
You have to change statusbar_background.png to statusbar_background.9.png for the status bar to show up black.

you sir, are EPIC! thank you so much for taking the time to make this! I flashed it, only the text turns white, but i found out why. In 2.1 roms, the system icons are no longer located in drawable. theyve been moved to drawable-mdpi. so i think if i move your images to mdpi itll work. ah, i didnt realize that statusbar_background had to be converted to a 9.png. Thanks this has been a great learning experience for me. Ive been fumbling around with the files and images all day and all of last night trying to get it to work. I think i can fix it myself. when I do finish, ill post it here and credit you and the original themer for MAT. Thank you very very much!

[BlackBar Mod - eclairOG1.0-1.2]
I DO NOT take any credit for this.
The notification bar is from MAT Theme made by matata86
and was ported over to eclairOG by david1171
UPDATED!!!! - I found some files that were in the wrong folder, and 3 images that were missing. I moved and restored the proper files into the right places. GTalk no longer force closes, no slowdown, nothing. Everything should run fine now!
Screenshots:
Installation:
-Make sure you have no widgets on any of your home screens before flashing
-Boot into Recovery and flash normally as you would any other theme
-No Need to Wipe anything (If you really really wanna be safe, wipe dalvik, but you shouldnt need to)
DOWNLOAD HERE!!!
Oh, and i might make a couple more versions and use battery icons from other themes on xda. Thanks again david1171 for porting the black bar to eclairOG!

Nice work.
love that battery icon...
Just flashed it and running good so far
EDIT: Got the feeling, that it slows down the phone a bit...

no its just the normal semi transparent gradient black background, but because theres a black wallpaper behind it, it looks almost invisible.

for some reason when I install the notification bar I get a force close when I open a chat on gtalk

Oh well, I was going to PM you for it. I think I know how to make it transparent, but I think the application needs to be resigned after replacing PNGs coz it didn't install. I tried signing made easy, but couldn't figure out how to make update-script.

yeah it needs to be resigned. I use stericsons autosign.bat file.
Check out the zip file i attached and look in META-INF < com < google < android < update-script and open it with Wordpad and you should get an idea of those work. theyre very simple. im not at my comp right now so i cant explain much about them right now.
and to anyone having problems with the black bar, ill see if i can find anything wrong with it and fix it.

sO....HeRe It Is!
NOW HAS OVER 1,000 DOWNLOADS! THANKS! 05/08/10 ​

One thing though...IF you do get a Pop Up about Market messing up...no worries. This happens because of the framework-res change with metamorph.
BONAFIDE SOLUTION: Go into Settings, then Applications, then Manage Applications...look for Market..click on it..and then click on 'Uninstall Updates'. Once that's done...BAM! yA dOnE! All fixed! So yeah, apart from that..this thing's good to go!
CYANOGEN USERS WANTING THE BLACK NOTIFICATION BAR: Flash the Black Notification Bar first(recovery), then flash my theme(metamorph)
SUGGESTIONIf you have a white notification bar, and you really don't think the black hero launcher matches that, you can always go to my other thread and download the white hero launcher I have there. There's a screenshot in the OP of that thread if you wanna see what that looks like. Here's the download link for the white hero launcher tab for those who are too lazy. : http://www.mediafire.com/?unnyzzjmjnr

giving this ago right now gonna use cyanogen for the full effect so ill report back tomorrow

Has anyone tried this on anything other than cyanogen?

The metamorph should work with any rom. and i see that you have a darkstar theme already, so that should take care of the black bar. but i also would want to know how the metmorphs work for other roms. it is really is made for any 1.6 rom. maybe you can. try it out and let me know.

Must have for hero themes...
If you love the sense ui look as much as I do, then you should download "PandaHero - Hero Style Home" from the marketplace. I have attached a screen shot to get a better understanding of why this is needed. For the first time, the buttons at the bottom actually function like they do with sense ui. The left for apps, center for phone, right for settings. Absolutely must have app for anyone who loves hero themes.

I have actually tried this app before, and yes, you are right. It is very much like having sense on the g1, but the thing that got me off that app was that it runs like the sense ui rom on the g1, which is...slow. Very slow with this app..which is why I wanted to make this theme because I really like sense ui, and I didn't want the slowness that came with it, and this metamorph gives one the sense look without slowing down the phone because it is only 2MB. I'm glad you shared though, because ppl might not mind the lag, and it's beneficial because ppl don't have to flash anything. Again, thanks for sharing.

No problem man. Believe it or not, I didn't really mind the lag of actual hero roms, so the lag from this app isn't that bad in comparison. The ONLY reason I didn't stick with hero rom's is because I love my bluetooth more then sense ui.

[Q] Help create a Steampunk theme...?

Ok folks, my friend just got a hero and we were talking about why to root. I showed him several ROMs from this site and all the cool themes. We got to talking about how cool it would be if there was a STEAMPUNK themed ROM out there.
Here's the rub... I SUCK at theming.
I looked at the "buufed" rom and I like some of the style, but it's just not quite what I'm looking for. Props to the developer of that ROM because it's very thorough. This is the depth I'd like the Steampunk theme to have, but I just don't know how to do it. I've never built a ROM from the ground up, so I don't even know where to start.
Is anyone out there interested in a project like this, or could someone help me know what to do?
Thanks!
-mb

A steam punk theme would be pretty awesome

It has begun...
Ok... I have a great deal of respect for all you devs and themers out there. This is a beast. Time-consuming and not very forgiving...
I have started working on my steampunk theme. Here are some screenshots of what I've done so far. By no means is this a complete theme. I am using ZenHeroFX 2.0 by nfinitefx45 as my base. Credit to all artists/devs for their work.
I have themed the notification pull-down as well, but I don't have a screenie of that yet. Also, I themed the stock sense rosie, but (again) no screencap yet. I'm curious what y'all think...

Looks cool so far.

Wow. You're a fast learner! Here are some clear notification bar icons that I made. You can use them so that the black squares wont show up around the icons in the notification bar. Just unzip the zip file, and you'll see the folders that the icons are supposed to go into. Good luck!

This is looking really good. Here's another theme I found a while back that has some of the same elements of csrom and your current build. I've never used it, but maybe something in there will help you, or maybe this dev can help you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478570

wow! this looks ... awesome! not usually an "extreme theme" kinda guy, but this I would use!
sadly though, I am using CM6 or AOSP, so would not actually end up using it, but I will be watching this thread for S&Gs anyway. the end result should look spectacular.
if I could add one "suggestion"? Get rid of the "branding" (SteamMod in big letters on the lockscreen?), I would think ppl would rather have something less intrusive in the look. I know I would. something clean and mechanical. just a IMHO kinda suggestion, great work regardless!

Thanks for the link. There is some good stuff I might be able to use in there... credit to the creator of course!

wow! this looks ... awesome! not usually an "extreme theme" kinda guy, but this I would use!
sadly though, I am using CM6 or AOSP, so would not actually end up using it, but I will be watching this thread for S&Gs anyway. the end result should look spectacular.
if I could add one "suggestion"? Get rid of the "branding" (SteamMod in big letters on the lockscreen?), I would think ppl would rather have something less intrusive in the look. I know I would. something clean and mechanical. just a IMHO kinda suggestion, great work regardless!

No problem-o... I appreciate the suggestion. Funny thing, too... I was using some of the mods from this on my daily use, and I thought "I need to take off that lettering 'cuz it's getting on my nerves." I'm just going to use it as the splash screen when sense loads rather than on the lock screen.
I have to take a break from this for a couple of days, but hopefully I can work on it some next week. Here's where I'm going to have most of my problems... DISTRIBUTION. I can theme my own phone b/c I know what I'm editing... I just am not sure how to make it so others can use it without bricking their phone. Any ideas? I hate Metamorph... was thinking more of a flashable zip? Or maybe just a themed version of a full ROM? ??

I may be way off, but I'm a Hero user and digital scrap "designer". I have photographed and extracted some Steampunk watch parts that you are welcome to use if you like for your theme.

The DL links are right below the pics for each post. Again, if I'm way off and you think my stuff sucks, disregard this post!
I love your theme btw!

I have abandoned this project... it was too big for me to take on. If anyone wants to pick this up...?
