WHY!!!

why is everybody working on hero?

i wouldn't exactly call it "working" when you know how to add a few files and a theme and sign it.

touche'. i mean damn you can only "work" on the same thing for so long. there is a perfectly good pulse dump it only made it to a meager beta. blur is coming along and eclair is out there. wtf?

i have no clue man, i love the pulse launcher. i wish more people would get on it and realize its potential. hero is old imo.

im super partial to blue. the flip animation in the launcher is so sick it has huge potential and people are sleeping on this rom

i know, i love the little animation when you delete something, i also love how the launcher works.

HTC DESIRE/HTC LEGEND SENSE UI 2.1 Icons for G1/MT3G?

I have been searching for a couple of days and I can't find anything. I really want the new Sense UI icons on the Desire/Legend as a metamorph/flashable file.
I can only find them in themes and not as icons by themselves. I will include a .zip file of the Desire Icons I found in the Hero CDMA thread.
http://www.mediafire.com/?myexmmitzqt

What can i do with this file? Sorry i'm a noob but i can tell its not just the icon set.

Here you go! The zip that's attached is supposed to be metamorphed and not flashed. And if you really want the ultra look of the htc desire, I would suggest heading over to the hero link over in my sig and then metamorphing that, and then using this metamorph to give the icons the HTC Desire/New Sense look. And this goes for all people! haha. Well, enjoy!
PS: I figured I would throw the HTC Desire looking wallie in the mix as well. Happy metamorphing!

thanks man
edit this is some of the icons but they are not all correct thanks anyway though

What do you mean it's not all? I know it's not all..it's MOST of them anyway. The system applications anyway..you didn't even know what to do with that file, and the ones I gave you are correct sense UI icons. Sorry I sound blunt..just feel dissed and think that your 'edited' statement was really not necessary considering I helped you out too and I acknowledge you said thank you but it's almost like your 'edit' statement really was unnecessary, and I really never get offended at anybody. I took time to help out. Just a thank you no edit would've been fine..

Just installed this with metamorph on cm 15.1 and everything worked except the browser. Can you double check that the browser icon is correct? Ill try to reinstall just the browser, in case that's the issue.

Well, try and re-download the zip file because I just tested it right now and it works perfectly for me. Don't know why it's not working for you. Anybody else having this problem? But mine works, and I'm using the same zip file. The one on this page with the updated Contacts.apk icon fix that I messed up on before. Let me know how it works for you after you re-download the file.

[MM] Orangalicious theme for xtrsense

This a theme for Xtrsense. I have tried to get as much orange as possible in this theme. I am not done with this completely yet because there are some more things I want to change but I have not had time to do it yet what with life and all.
This theme is largely based off of droidkevlars theme kevlarmash. So most if not all credit goes to him.
Also thanks to zach.xtr for a great rom.
Anyhow here is the theme with some screenshots. If anyone can think of something else they would like to see in it or how to do some new things feel free to let me know.
Disclaimer: The only rom I have tested this on is xtrsense. I am sure it will work on most 2.1 roms however I can not confirm this. If anyone can confirm this for me that would be great.
Disclaimer pt2: If you do this you are doing it at your own risk.
Just wanted to add if everyone wants to post a request for a color other than orange, once I finish with this I will make a new one in whatever color is most requested.

Man if you could make a tarheel blue one, that'd be awesome. If not i'll survive tho haha.

it's not working on my phone tried several times using metamorph, says file not written correctly
sucks, bc it looks really cool! i tried re downloading on card but still nothing
any suggesstions?

I was able to duplicate it. I am not sure yet what is causing but, once it kicks you out if you go back into metamorph and click on apply theme it should have it listed as an option and let you apply it even though it kicked you out initially.

Very nice theme especially considering Halloween. I have run it for four days with no problems. I did get the error message when I unzipped with MM but going right back in showed the xml file in my list of apps.

[REQ] Honeycomb Theme PORT

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943423
Hey, can someone talented please port this beautiful theme?

I already tried doing this, it is not impossible, but very cumbersome. It has been made for the Theme chooser app and hence all the files are named a little differently. So all you have to do is rename a few hundered files exactly as they are in the existing framework.
I was going to do it and release it and rejoice, but all that went to **** when I saw how much work I will have to do...lol (I know I am a lazy ass!)
I will be looking forward to whoever is able to do this.

the first one changes a few icons, but not much, it doesn't look very good, so I tried to make a better one and it wouldn't boot. The third one also won't boot. I have only flashed these over di11gaf 6.0. See what you can do with these.

I had flashed this port http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=958788
and knew it might not work but it did for a short while. It was a great 10 minutes and then after another theme swap I had to format and reinstall a fresh ROM. The pattern unlock theme is amazing. Offset circles...nice.

Im having a really hard time getting my screen to look like their screenshots...anyone else having this problem. I got some stuff to work like notification bar and wallpaper and thats about it. Im on serendipity 5.11 going back and forth between suckerpunch and speedmod...

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?

are most APK's ok to copy from one theme to another? I have many themes that i really like alot and then i found some areas of one theme i like but would like this or that from another. But overall i give you all alot of credit as you all do some amazing work!!!! THank you all
