I wanted to start a thread that people could post their results on which metamorph themes work on what Froyo ROM. Obviously we have Kevlar Froyo Mash (thanks KV looks great on KFCv24). Was just wondering what else had been tried and worked.
I have tried a few different themes (some of which have taken on KFCv24) and will report back asap. And i will also provide screen shots.
Edit: Thus far I have found certain portions of Dr. Cloverdales Magic Elixir...
Browser.apk--->changes internet icon to look like google chrome
calender.apk
camera.apk
contacts.apk
ADW launcher.apk--->themes the ADW Launcher
music.apk
phone.apk
settings.apk--->changes the settings icon and the look of the settings menu
vending.apk--->changes your android market icon to the grocery bag
There may be other portions of this theme that take I have not wanted to change the various apks.
There is a metamorph icon that will change the the stock green lockscreen button to blue called BlueRotary that works with KFCv24.
I believe I have taken pictures of the different changes and they are listed below.
Elegant steel is working. A few status bar notifications are missing but everything else is fine.
good froyo metamorph
kevlar froyo v1 and v2 are nice. if you dont like the stock white notification bar you should try this metamorph out.
I use a metamorph that was made for Cyanogen 5.0.8 roms and haven't had any issues. I like the simple black and white idea. You can find it here: http://jbthemes.com/dr_cloverdale/Black_Effects-v3.2.zip . Original post can be found here on XDA at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=673044
In case anyone is curious, this has worked on KaosFroyo, CELB 1.4, and Tazz's roms too. So good for AOSP/Cyanogen hybrids and Cyanogen roms.
updated first post with pictures
i got the minimalist black from the android theme board working on my cyanogen 6.0 ver 4 on the eris. some things are missing but i think thats the theme. also im in love love love with froyo i cant find a bad thing about it.
Pretty much every theme I've tried has worked fine, but not 100%. The fonts and colors never change for me, just (most of) the icons and the framework.
Has anyone been able to morph the flat phone on a froyo?

Sorry, its included in the Dark Elegance theme.

All themes will work with froyo by simply changing file names and putting all the images in the framework-res drawable folder.. Just an FYI.

I'm using minimal matte on Tazz's ROM. The only thing that didn't work for me was the icons, but I didn't like them anyway

Meshdroid
You should check out the meshdroid, for 5.0.8 cynanogen. It looks like most of it works and it looks great
Both of my themes work.

This theme looks really awesome. I like the way the sub pages trail off like they're on the other side of a cube. And the effect of the driod image kinda floating in space is a great backdrop!
I'm running Cognition 2.3b3 on a rooted cappy. It is really an awesome combo, whatever kernal/lagfixes etc are on this rom, with its widgits and interfaces-->> it rocks!! Blazing fast, rock steady, smooth are words that come to mind.
Any info on the compatibility of this theme with the Cog Voodoo rom?
Thanks for posting the screen shots.

Hey,
After discovering SuperD-blk (Nexus theme), I realized how much I liked the animations, Nexus style launcher, and the green highlights. As I wanted to try other builds but continue to use the theme, I decided to make a metamorph of SuperD 1.6 [Black\Nexus] for use on all Donut 1.6 roms, and share it for those who enjoy that look and style as much as I do.
I have noticed applying this morph causes the rom to rebuild the dalvik-cache and ZipAlign the apps, so it might take a while to boot after applying it
All credits goes to HTCClay and benbuchacher. They put together an EXCELLENT build, which speeds like no other donut build i've run across.
Updated on 1/30/2008 All links below have been updated (Uploaded 12:30am PST)
Newer update includes system-wide green selections and more green in the launcher (Thanks to cloverdale for the "organicide" pngs from his Nexus theme!)
Various improvements to Launcher.apk images (more green, less orange & minor color gradient for the app drawer )
Removed unneeded wallpapers built into Launcher to reduce morph size
Only Compatible with Donut 1.6 roms (Tested on Super D 1.6.5\1.6.6 Beta and Cyanogen 4.2.13)
Features:
Nexus Style Launcher
Animations from SuperD 1.6
Green Highlights
Colored notifications for Gmail & Calendar
Whole Package (all of the above included)
4Shared Link
Mediafire Link
SuperD Animations only
Mediafire Link
4shared Link
Please give me feedback
Tested using MetaMorph 1.8.2 \ 1.9.4
Enjoy!
Borrowed these screenshots from the SuperD rom, as it is identical (although the search bar is black). Also, I didnt make any changes to the lockscreen, but I figured Id show a SS for kicks
trying it now!
Using Metamorph 1.8.2 and CM 4.2.13... completely failed. The only change I've noticed is that the text for the notification bar is now white, which sucks because it's now white on white.
Good effort though, I guess.
btw- screenshots would be nice to help me see what I'm missing
Screenshots please!!!

Thats pretty strange, cause I tested it on my Cm-4.2.13 (nandroid backup).
Did metamorph give you any errors? I replaced almost all the images (and a lot of xmls) in the launcher and framework, and if it is working it should at least give you some modified images.
Let me know...Ill do some further testing to see whats happening.
EDIT: I modified the zip file a little bit, pulled out some extra crap, and confirmed it applied successfully to SuperD Beta 1.6.6 and CM-4.2.13.
Let me know if you continue to have issues
I'm going to end up reflashing my rom and maybe some other fancy things to get metamorph working again. I haven't been able to fully get a metamorph theme to work in a while, so this SuperD theme might be just fine. I'll come back edit this post when it's all finished and (hopefully) working.
I get "The theme you selected is invalid because the theme control file could not be read or missing."

I'm sorry it didnt work for ya, I even downloaded it from 4shared and reapplied it to mine to see if there was something being corrupted during the download. I am currently using MetaMorph 1.8.5 donate, if that makes any difference. I attached the .thm file for you to see if it works.....just rename it to .thm and drop it in /sdcard/androidthemes/SuperD
I am pretty new to metamorph but I think i followed the scripting parameters correctly. I attempted to remove the comments from the bottom to see if that is causing an issue.
If anyone has an idea, please feel free to chime in.
EDIT: just downloaded MetaMorph 1.8.2 free from the market to test it. Seems to work fine....I'm actually a little confused. Please try another theme and see if MetaMorph itself is working properly. Thanks and let me know what ends up happening. Would love for everyone else to enjoy this....
Works on CM 4.2.13, just not on Super D 1.6.6. Thanks for the help man, always appreciate the ones who helps out!
Using it on SuperD 1.6.6 Beta as I type to keep me over till the STABLE release......shouldnt be any different, as it is just rebuilding the .apk/.jar files w/ different images and XMLs
I was wondering if you could put together the white one also?
Nice! What part of this makes the highlights green? I've been wanting the green highlights for a long time!
I'm already using Super D, just missing the green highlights.

Actually, I am not quite sure, as I assembled this as a way to test\learn MetaMorph. Some xml in the framework-res does all the green selections (I love that too, main reason I made the morph)
I believe there is a green highlights metamorph if you can find the post called "Post your Morphs" in this same forum, if that is all you are looking for. You could also try just applying the framework-res part of the theme instead of applying all the modifications.

If all you are looking for is the Nexus style launcher, try just applying the Launcher.apk part of the morph. If not, let me know and I'll see what I can whip up
I meant the white notification bar. I don't remember if the black themed SuperD has it, but the text message notification is green on the white one. Which looks awesome together. Anyways using this on WGbuild Y2.6 works great!

Green highlights are .png and .9.png files, which will be located in framework-res.apk in /res/drawable (or /res/drawable-mdpi in 2.0).
By the way, if you want green highlight in ALL system apps, download Nex^2us (in my signature) and you are welcome to add them to your theme.

Thanks for the info. Good to know for future 'morphing'.
For those that have used the SuperD White\Nexus, are the selections green? I am trying to figure out if it is even worth building a white version, as you can add the Nexus launcher by just applying the Launcher.apk
I will probably just keep this morph as is, as it is serving the exact purpose it was created for. I will continue to update it as SuperD progresses though.
@Cloverdale, us your "orangicide" done in the metamorph theme too, or just the full build? Figuring out which one to dissect haha. Thanks!
Nope, no green highlights

can you make a separate one for "Animations from SuperD 1.6 " only for the white one? I'd like to add the animation only and not touch the rest of the system. Is it possible?
I want a theme that's black/cyan for my aria. It's running RC1 [from the RC1 thread], and I've already changed all the text colors to a cyan that matches the original cyano mod power strip/bar. but there are plenty other colors floating around (lockscreen, incoming call, battery icon, etc).
I'm a noob at fiddling around with actual the actual files (apks, jars), and I'm scared of installing a theme that's not meant for this rom (will it even boot? i got stuck in boot loop when i tried a cm6 theme >.<). I like a clean look like the glass themes (can't post links.. urg) but in cyan (and able to run on this rom/phone). Metamorph won't run on this phone. Is there a way to flash a MM theme without it (guess not?)?
..is there a black/cyan theme floating around that'll work for the aria rc1?
Im not sure if its exactly what you're looking for but if you search "CyanogenMod ADW Theme" in the market place there is a theme that sounds like what you're looking for. And its meant to work with ADW which is the launcher that comes preinstalled with CM6.
lol I remember seeing that one, but it looks like someone puked cyan all over the screen >_<
Also, I'm looking for more of a simple rom theme, and not so much actually changing icons/buttons.
In fact, if anyone can teach me how to change colors (lock screen, battery icon--so it's cyan and not green, incoming/ongoing call screen, other notification bar icons--alarm/wifi/mobile network/signal strength/etc, menu/setting font colors, icon highlight color, etc) manually, I'd be just as happy to go through the labor myself (..i think). A point to a tutorial would help too
EDIT: nevermind. I found some tutorials and stuff in the theme forums. I'll just read up there and figure it out.
All credit goes to Kalagas.
I only ported some of icons from original Milestone theme and mixed some of sense icon. Enjoy!
To get screen like shown in first picture, check the following menu option:
Settings->CyanogenMod settings->Input Settings->Phone and Messaging
Get modded LauncherPro from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=889036
Changes:
1. Browser tweaked for more icons.
2. Added some more tweaked apps.
3. Battery icon changed to BlueBattery.
Guys, can I have some feedback?
Your pictures really don't do it justice.
I thought it looked pretty awful from the pics but actually looks pretty good in the flesh. I like all blue icons, not a huge fan of the data icon though. I really like the menu themeing, xda app looks much better and the color icons when you push menu in homescreen are a good touch.
Why didn't you theme the new market blue? I don't like the buttons on the dialer either, doesn't look right with numbers but no buttons. Browser looks really smart I'm blue. Circular battery mod would have been good too

How do I apply this theme? I tried using metamorph to do it and it didnt work? Do i just place it on the sd card and flash it like a normal rom? Im really confused and i cant find any help anywhere. The theme looks sick, but i cant figure it out...

Yes, you need to flash it like a normal ROM. By looking at screen shots (I am lazy to post several screen shots) it may look sick but believe me it is fantastic from inside.
I have themed my MT3GS with what I think is an awesome looking theme. The problem is I did not do any of the images myself, I picked, poked, prodded and pulled various images from some very great themed ROMs such as RemixedDarkBlue, ProdigalSunColorblind version, GTXSlide1.1, CR_mod1.35_OTA, BlackSlide1.3, and a few other various finds from different areas here on XDA. All different devs and versions and I can't really recall exactly what from where I pulled things from.
I did start off with doing a basic port of the BlackSlide1.3 into CM6.1.1 for the black keyboard and base of the theme, from there I opened up the .zip file and manually extracted and placed misc. images from the various ROMs I mentioned before and themed the icons, status bar, and color scheme of the overall ROM. I put the Fonts from the GTXslide in here as I like a little style. Hope you guys enjoy it.
This is the stable release of Cyanogen 6.1.1 base with a few of the apps removed, if you are already using that release just flash this over it to theme your rom. I did use the ADW App from RemixedDarkBlue as I like the trash on the bottom of the screen, and I like the icon in it as well. I placed that trash icon into the 3D Gallery to conform the rom slightly more ;-).

The question I have is how would I go about uploading this and offering this to the community while giving props to everyone I pulled images from? As I love how my phone looks and thinks others may as well.
P.S. I'll post Screenshots soon as I find a screenshot app if you guys would like a preview of how it looks. It's a Dark/Black theme.

Great attitude my friend, and to solve your dilemma you dont need to say the exact names of the authors, just point out the name of the themes and that the icons and stuff are not yours.... thats it, this is sharing comunnity so i dont think anyone would come and say "hey thats my icon" lol dont worry about it
Im glad we have some more people trying to contribute
Sounds awesome so far! I hope you find a way to package it all up.
As far as screenshots, I use "ShootMe", myself. Not sure what else is out there, but that one works well enough for me

I didn't use metamorph to theme the ROM, I used something called Theme-Porter_beta_3 by Daneshm90 here in XDA. I can supply the files I got from the theme porter (aprox. 30 meg .zip file) for you to push into a CM6.1.1 ROM. In that zip I supplied the themed ADW from RemixedDarkBlue and the ADW that comes with the CM6.1.1. I Honestly just pasted those app and framework files into my CM6.1.1. (***NOTE=the ADWlauncher inside the app folder is the one that comes with the CM6.1.1, the standalone ADWlauncher is from RemixedDarkBlue***)
If you could point me in the direction of what metamorph program you use, maybe I can be of more assistance. I'd love to be able to package this in an easy to distribute kind of way if possible ;-).

for now this is the theme that i hav applied using metamorph http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/...nse-201-cyanogenmod-61-stable-nb285-15122010/
but I really like how you made your theme dark n stuff its very nice , if you could make this into a metamorph theme it would be greatly appreciated, but if not its really no problem.
This is tremendous. Thank you so much for sharing.
Is there any way I can change ONLY the settings Menu?
Im reeeeeallllyyy liking it

I like how my phone looks right now. I would only like to add this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=485783&d=1294675798
I see, can push the settings and settings provider apks from the .zip into your ROM via adb. if you like the font style, push /system/fonts. Hope that helps.
I realized after flashing this over CM6.1, the Menu button unlocks the phone ignoring what's checked/unchecked in Cyanogen Settings. Flashed Cyanoginger over this and it's back to normal. Could it be this theme or something else?
The menu button unlock deals with the 6.1.1 update, Cyanoginger is 6.1. All I've done was import image files. I didn't touch any of the .xml or any other base framework file. If you like 6.1, here is a link to 6.1.0. Hope that helps ;-)
Little spoiler though, I am working on a from scratch theme that will be dark in nature still, but will look kind of like brushed metal instead of shiny. I will be posting screenshots once I get all these keyboard/button transparencies and colors situated. This new theme will take a few weeks or so to complete because I will be doing everything from scratch. The Keyboard, selection buttons, radio buttons, check boxes, status bar and icons, and possibly the icons within the apps will be completely redone. I tried to learn the meta morph technique but find the Theme Porter that @migueltherocker turned me onto much better since it is very simple and works flawlessly. Feel free to post things you guys would like to see and I might try and implement those ideas into this next theme .
Snap.
I.
Thanks for the info. Keep up the good work!
Are you sure Cyanoginger is 6.1, though? The thread says 6.1.1.
Oh, my mistake. I know that the 6.1.1 has a known issue with the menu key unlock. Last I checked Cyanoginger was 6.1 and I believe the menu issue was not introduced until 6.1.1. I've only fooled with the image files and left everything else intact. Maybe the latest nightly removes the menu key issue? I'm simply running the latest stable 6.1.1 available on the CyanogenMod site. It never bothered me as the phone never leaves my side and I am attatched to it at the waist pretty much.
Alright, Just letting you guys know I am dropping making a new theme for CM.6.1.1 due to the CM.7 Nightly release. If anyone wants me to further work on 6.1.1 I will do so after I finish my first custom theme for CM.7. Otherwise I'll be dropping this project.
Hi Everybody, This post is for two reasons:
I wanted to post all the mods / hacks that I've made for the Tiamat Moray Rom in one place, instead of on random comments.
I've made a theme for my Xoom, to remove the blue glow that exists on a lot of the stock Honeycomb elements in the main interface.
Here's what I've accomplished so far for the theme. Click on a picture to enlarge:
What I've Done:
replaced the back / home / multitask / options icons on the navigation bar, the Wifi / Battery icons in the notification area, and the Apps / + icons on the top right of the launcher, with the icons from the GalaxyTab 10.1 Touchwiz UX Theme. They are all very similar to the stock icons, but don't have a glow effect on them. (See pic #1).
changed the clock colour in the main navigation bar to a grey, to match the new navigation icons.
removed the blue glow & outlines from the popups around the notification area. Also, removed the transparency in these popups, and recoloured the top one a dark grey/black combo. (See pics #2 - normal, #3 - pressed, and #4 - quick settings).
removed the blue glow & outline from the program tiles in the multitasking popup. (See pic #5).
replaced the settings background, where there used to be a blue glow, with a single-colour image in dark grey (see pic #6). This also had the unintended but pleasant side effect of replacing the background on the browser bookmarks window (see pic #7) , and in some programs like File Manager HD (see pic #8). I guess they all use the same image that I changed in the framework-res.apk file.
replaced the calendar background, from white with the two blue glowing ellipses, to a subtle white to grey gradient. (See pic #9).
"solidified" the clock font on the quick settings menus and lockscreen, to remove the semi-transparent two-toned effect. (See pic #10)
removed the blue glow from the inactive tabs in the browser. (See pic #11)
Downloads (Themes for Tiamat Moray 2.2.2):
Here are CWM flashable zip files. They all edit the same files, so do NOT flash more than one of these at a time, expecting it to work.
Stock Battery and Wifi Icons - Replaces the custom Battery and Wifi icons in the Moray Rom, with stock honeycomb icons. This is 100% compatible with Moray as the System and Framework files were taken from Moray and the battery/wifi images were replaced. Nothing else has been edited, so your Xoom will still look 100% Honeycomb.
My Theme - This is my theme. If you do not want the clock font changed, open the zip file, and delete the system/fonts/ folder. Do not delete any of the apk files in any other folder.
Restore to Stock Tiamat Theme - This is a restore package, in case you want to go back to the stock Tiamat Moray theme. It contains original versions of the files I changed in my theme, so that you don't have to flash the entire Rom over again.
Downloads (Mods / Fixes / Other):
Here are CWM flashable zip files, that contain each of the Mods.
GMail fix - The GMail.apk file from the old Tiamat MantaRay rom. It fixes a force close problem that some users get when multiple GMail accounts are in use on Hammerhead 2.1 or Moray 2.2, it is unnecessary on Moray 2.2.1/2.2.2.
Alarm Clock fix - The DeskClock.apk file from the Asus Transformer. It fixes a force close problem that some users get when turning on an alarm via the check mark in Moray 2.2. As a bonus, it also installs a very minimalist date widget that you may choose to use, or not.
Arial Clock Fonts - Changes the clock font for the lockscreen / notification area / settings popup to an Arial font, similar to Touchwiz UX on the Galaxy Tab 10.1.
Blue Striped Wallpaper - The background wallpaper in the preview pics above.
I would like to give a huge thanks to Bazar6 over on Xoom Forums for his tutorial "How To Theme Your Xoom" - without it, I would not have been able to do any of this! I would also like to thank the Tiamat team for making such an awesome Rom!
Suggestions are always welcome. If you can think of any other changes I can make, let me know.
Thanks!
MasterSlacker.
i go to try it, looks good.
Nicely done. I was never fond of the blue glow.

I did it based off of the 2.2 Rom. Give me a day or so, and I'll update it to 2.2.1 - I just need to figure out which of the files changed from 2.2 to 2.2.1, and I'll need to update my own Xoom to 2.2.1 as well
Cool! Will give it a test go. Without having a glow it looks like it might possibly sport a cleaner look than before with the glow. Let's see how I like it. I'm curretnyl using the Galaxy theme already so it should be just fine.
EDIT: I just installed the theme: It's not bad, so far I like it. I think I will keep it for now. Nice work so far.
Alright, updated the theme for Moray 2.2.1 - files in the first post.
Thanks so much. This link is now added to "my favorites"
Great work, thanks!
Edit: I cant add live wallpapers. Just me?

I can add live wallpapers on mine. Have you done any other mods?

I use ADW, but cleared defualts and can't add them from Stock launcher either. I only flashed Arcterus kernel. And 2.2.1 first.
I do use Honeybar and virtual bar. And wallpaper wizardry
Wow. I was sold on the stargate theme but this is gorgeous. As I want 2.2.1 might use your theme with widgets etc from stargate so I get best of both ;-)

Flashed back to stock 2.2.1 and can add lwp now. Going to flash this again and see.
Edit: Don't know. Works now. Nvm disregard. Thanks!

Glad you got it all working ... whatever you did
really nice work, MS, thanks for sharing your theme... had been using the ported touchwoz theme,but this is simpler and I like it better... tried replacing the clock fonts (renamed yours with .old and copied mine, based on ubuntu) and got thrown into a bootloop from which I couldn't recover without reflashing moray entirely - any ideas what might have caused that?

Thanks for the suggestion, but to be honest, half of that went right over my head. It's been so long since I was in the software development industry.
Right now, I've only been editing png images. I've tried editing XML files, but for the life of me I can't get it to work. So what I've done to make it easier for me in the future, is to have a directory tree of all my edited images, in each respective folder, of each apk file. That way, if and when you release a new rom, I can just open the apk files from the rom download, and copy my edited pngs directly into it.
Also, my "mods" aren't really modifications to the way the rom works - I just did some experimenting with alternate GMail and DeskClock apks, and the force closes that I got on Hammerhead and Moray 2.2 stopped.
I hope this makes sense. I definitely appreciate all the work that you and the rest of the Tiamat team have put into this amazing Rom for the Xoom!
