thanks i went there but theres crappy things under the 1.5 title .... the others say there for 2.1 ... i cant use those with 1.5 right??? i search and maybe i dont know the correct terms but wats 1.0 ? is that refering to 1.5 themes?
Sorry bro, I don't know what to tell you. I've been using 2.1 since the first leak hit. I haven't kept up with 1.5 at all. But like I said, the beauty of android is being able to do it yourself! Try downloading one of the themes you DID find, ripping into it and seeing what makes it tick....then changing it to suit your wants and needs!
EDIT: And sorry, no, the themes under the 2.1 title won't work on 1.5.
still no luck i dont use 2.1 cus the audio problem ... and i cant find zero 1.5 theme

Hey I was looking for a new ROM on my new G1. I would like something with a nice digital clock widget, a messaging widget, and just many downloadable widgets. My brother has Hero on his G1 and I love, the only problem is that I don't like the fact that if you slide it up it just freezes... So are there any somewhat similar to Hero but can slide?

As of right now, no. This is because the actual Hero doesn't have the keyboard, and so when you slide it up, it tries to force Rosie into widescreen which it doesn't support, ergo, the crash. You'll just have to live with it. However, Drizzy has been making some progress with that and has actually gotten Rosie to run with the keyboard open though it crashes and then reloads Rosie when you open the keyboard. He said he'd look into it more so follow his twitter for more info.
EDIT: Forgot to say. Hero ROM's are the only one with a messaging widget. You can download the Digital Clock widget from the market for a small price. I don't know the name of the widget exactly, just do a search for it in the theme section, it was mentioned in there a few times i believe.
There aren't any messaging widgets like the one on the Hero roms. You can download ANY widget to any rom though, just search the market for widgets and see what you find. Hero shouldn't freeze when you "slide up" whatever that means, if your talking about the keyboard when your on the home screen that is because they don't rotate, only in programs. If you mean some other type of slide then most likely your brother didn't do a proper linux-swap partition or it is to small. Anyway you need to just try the different roms and see what you like best, also some themes offer extra widgets and features but remember you can get any widget to any rom, just not the Hero/HTC Rosie widgets because HTC's stuff is closed source so we can't port it.
Ok thanks guys. So can I have the original and like non experimental link to hero. I use to search box and only find mods of it, and I guess I am just iffy on the mods. Anybody mind giving me the link to the newest and best quality ROM for Hero? Thanks In Advance

The modded ones are the best ones. The unmodded original is veryyyyy slow compared to the new ones. I would try JACHeroski 2.1 or MoDaCo 1.51 are both fast, stable choices.

All heros are technically "experimental". I haven't messed with the new Drizzy. I'm still putting JacHeroSki 2.1 throught it's paces. I can recommend it. There are people who like each of the different incarnations of hero.
What I suggest is going to the DEV section and read. Decide on your own. Hell, you can flash them all with switchrom. Have some fun and learn some cool stuff.
so good roms

Switchrom for the win. Seriously.. haha Yeah JACxRom is pretty decent. But as far as hero have you tried HERO2 - Freedom of choice? If not I think you'll be impressed. I flash FoC when it was first released and it wasn't anything to write home about but now? Dang.. it's fast. Wicked Fast. Try it out!

I love the new ROM as I'm sure a lot of people do, I just want the sense ui feel. If this is possible, or your working on it right now, please let me know. Thanks in advance!
you could download the home replacement panda hero! its as close to sense ui you can get without actually using a hero rom
I actually tried the Panda Home Hero home replacement, and it looked pretty good, except for the little bit of text at the bottom that reads "Light Version" or something to that effect. Is there any way to remove that, or am I just being hopeful? I don't really feel like paying for a paid version, especially now that Cyan's been able to get past the whole video thing, developers of Sense roms will hopefully be able to start producing roms with working video cameras. Just my opinion.

If you really look around the web, you can find websites that have the paid apk file for panda hero. I would post the file here, but I don't want to get banned, The only problem I have with panda is that it doesn't change your status bar, nor icons to match sense ui. I think someone made an espresso theme, I will check it out....

It is a little bit better, but I was hoping for a the hero version, not the espresso kind. All the sky blue and pink colors is annoying after a while. I guess beggars can't be choosers...
i know i am always posting things about lockscreens, they are just the one thing that i am picky about.
i really want an opaque lockscreen backround, without any clocks or anything. just opaque or even transparent, and still with the eclair style slide to unlock (although thats not essential)
anyone know of one i could flash, i know it early days, but is anyone working on this sort of thing at all?
Well, this guys has done what I think you want - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=665652
However, do NOT flash those patches as they are for the CDMA Hero. I just thought you might be able to get an idea from the files he uses as to what needs to be changed.
He has done some other cool things too, but he's not got back to me as of yet about how to do them.
Good luck
that is EXACTLY what i want.
We sould be able to flash this ??? it's just a lockscreen otherwise i'll port it ova b4 the end of the week
Cool
If anyone is interested this is his other work. Some great ideas... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6270955
Someone please port these lockscreens
I'll Upload in ten mins
Also tht red keyboard for swype is lush

Tried this. Kind of worked.
The shadow from the clock is still there =/
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!

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

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.

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!
so im very new at all of this and what im about to ask i probably wont get to many answers back. but im trying to learn themeing and ive tryed to do it myself but i just get lost really fast. i was wondering if anybody would take time to maybe show me how to get started...tutorials wont help till i officially no what im doing....if anybody can help me u would be a very big help to me... thank u!

i mean tutorials are the way a lot of us got going, or really got into it
basically though, just start by using 7zip to take apart the frameworks from another theme and look through the drawable-hdpi or hdpi-4 folders and see the changed images
its a lot to take in though really...not something that can be picked up in a week or something...but dont get discouraged

i don't think you understand the concept of a tutorial
to bo honest i dont think i do...thats why im trying to learn
You really just have to jump in. I use winrar instead of 7zip . But to start, open up a theme that already works for the fascinate ...and just look at the folder tree and understand where everything is ... after that, Start replacing images. XML editing is going to take a tutorial, but there is a lot you can do before you take that step. It takes time ... and patience. Pretty much just jump in .you have an advantage being that this phone is so easy to recover if something goes wrong. It is addictive though ... be warned. The theme I'm working on has consumed my life almost haha.

The point of a tutorial is to show you what to do. So you should give them a shot instead of writing them off.
i did...i read like three to four tutorials but they all start in diff areas of stuff and it just gets to confusing...im trying though...im not just writing it off...i really am

while i *should* update my tutorial to include more of the basic stuff, the reason most of it focuses on the more advanced xml/.9 things is because in december/january that seemed to be the most pressing issue for many.
i was getting dozens of pms a day on androidforums/xda/irc with many of the same questions, and while i was trying to be helpful and respond it was getting to be a bit overwhelming....so i figured id answer the most commonly asked things first and work back from there...but then dl30 dropped, then eb01 and i got tied up by porting the themes/ports i maintained.
now that im working on more detailed themes that takes up most of my android time...but ill see what i can do about updating the tutorial
Thank u man...sorry for being such a noon :/

So is it really hard to combine elements from different themes to make a new theme? There are several different ones that I love parts of, but I would like to be able to pick and choose and piece one together...
Like for instance, I like somebody the dark themes, but I don't always like plain toggle buttons, and I love the stock gingerbread statusbar with the little vertical battery meter that has the percent in it.... some themes I did the transparent pull down, etc....
I'd like to be able to mix n match
How hard is it to do that?
