[METAMORPH] HERO FULL THEME 'the real hero' [UPDATE: NEW METAMORPH FORMAT] (05/06/10)

sO....HeRe It Is!
NOW HAS OVER 1,000 DOWNLOADS! THANKS! 05/08/10 ​
*NEW UPDATE 05/06/10* So, I updated the Hero theme with the new xml Metamorph format. I also added a few things to framework. Added sliding animations as well instead of the regular ones. Hope ya like it! [/B]
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
WORKS ON ALL 1.6 ROMS(Tested on Cyanogen and Fastest, but works on all)

The htc calendar is from the market and it's called 'Pure Calendar Widget' and the people widget is also from the market and it's called 'Contact Sidebar'. Hope that helps!

One is Koxx's calender grid app and I forgot the name of the contacts app. Both are in the market though.

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.

Hmm...well, i will take the framework-res.apk off and get that fixed. Thanks for letting me know. I was debating just trying to make the framework available for metamorph as well and seeing if it works since that's much simpler and easier. Sorry about the inconvenience.
EDIT: WENT AHEAD AND REMOVED THE FRAMEWORK-RES AND WILL TRY TO GET THAT BACK (FIXED) ASAP

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.

This is a metamorph theme, not meant to be flashed via recovery. Use metamorph to get this on your phone. Do you know how to use metamorph?

[THEME] Parts of the Villain 5.0 Theme for 5.22

I really liked Villain 5.0's circular battery meter, the wifi icon and the mobile internet icons. So i decided to port those bits over to 5.22. All you have to do is either:
-Push framework-res.apk to /system/framework/
OR
-Flash update-villain5.22-theme_signed.zip using Amon Ra's Recovery Menu
Enjoy

Nice!!
Thank You
BTW. Does it contain the sync icon as well ??

Nah, it looked way too out of place for me, so I decided not to port that over, it's the stock sync.

This still has the plane 2 thin white arrows in a circle, the first CDMA ROM port had the 2 fatter arrows one orange & one blue (if I remember rightly) I don't think they turned round, but they looked a lot cooler, to me anyway.
Any way of getting that included as well?
Or was it a different ROM I'm thinking of...?

SuperHero 2.0 lockscreen

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

Froyo Battery Percent Indicator?

Does anyone know of a battery indicator that shows either percent or circle?
Without changing existing theme?
TIA,
jjjjayd13,

Yes
You actually don't have to download or flash anything extra for a percentage. Go to settings>CyanogenMod Settings>User Interface or UI Tweaks>Status Bar Battery Percentage is the first option..Check it. If you need any more assistance just ask
P.S. Changes will be in effect after a reboot

Check out gomorrah's cm6 themes blackmod or steel my elegance. He has a circle batt zip that works great. You can dl the batt separate from the themes.

Sorry man, but thats not really accurate. While both themes have the option of adding circular batteries, neither have an option of just a battery mod. Both are packaged with their respective themes. A battery mod like that would be more of a Metmorph kinda deal, and I dont use that program. Maybe someone who's into that can whip up some sort of mod.

Ah, good call. I hadn't tried them out on plain jane cm6, I was assuming that they would function, being separate downloads.

[REQ] Aperture Signal Mod

I was looking at the Screens of Cubed ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1106515) and I was wanting to get my hands on a standalone version of the Signal Mod that's in there.
Thanks much!

If your are on froyo change the images in HTCresources.apk. if you are on gingerbread change systemUI.apk.

oh wow i looked at that roms screenshots and didnt even realize that's what it was..love portal.

If I could remember where I found it I would tell you. The original was all blue though, not multicolored, I changed that.
The images are in com.htc.resources.apk\res\drawable-hdpi.
