MetaMorph

OK, question, since now we have Root, is it possible to Build an XML version with Meta-morph Donate/Pro Version on the Eugene's SlideMEROOT ROM? or does the Espresso Sense UI prevent it from happening.

yes mm's please!

I'm pretty sure that if you have root you can use metamorph on the slide

MetaMorph and Nija install fine, but when they are launched the phone reboots, which is weird. It does it on all Roms so far but one, CM 5.0.8. But, seems it's still having issues with that rom . Might have to contact the dev .

Yea same thing happened to me both ninjamorph and metamorph cause a reboot. Id like to look at a logcat to see what's going on.

Wont work because we still don't have system mount, root explore doesntwork eather.

System mount works in recovery.

I am having the same probs with MM and NM. Would it be possable to install it via adb so that it has system access or whatever it needs?

Ya, i tried same. I pretty much already knew it wasnt going to work but gave it a shot as well. Just have to wait for someone to hack it up for our screen res and we should be good to go. I am just taking a shot in the dark and thinking that is the only reason why it wont work and could be wrong.

Mine installed just fine. I just cant get the keyboard to pull up

The Eris is mdpi where as the Droid is hdpi its a resolution thing...even if you got it to load the keys would be to big for your screen much like when the HTCIME first came out and everyone was jumping on the hi res version...

someone may port it...they're several pngs that have to be resized and edited etc porting any apk and or making a theme is a time intensive task so maybe if a themer or a dev feels like jumping on it...it may happen... if you want to tackle it yourself get you a trial copy of winRAR or another file reader and open a mdpi and the hdpi files and compare the res/drawables....thats a place to start I think.

It also has the resolution for each key specified in the decompiled .smali files inside classes.dex, so I think it's a big job to convert it. It's definitely beyond my ability. You'd need to use a tool like APK Manager 4.4 (search XDA for it) or manually decompile it with baksmali.
EDIT: I was wrong, the resolution in the .smali files is relative, so that's not stopping it from working.

Nope it wants to replace the latinime app thats why it wont install

Some Hero folks got it working as-is:

It sounds like it only works with Vanilla-based ROMs since they have LatinIME in them (Android keyboard), and you have to push it to /system/app/LatinIME.apk (overwriting the Android keyboard) instead of installing it as a user app.

Most likely you can use Root Explorer or a similar app to move it into /system/app while the phone is on, then make sure you check its permissions (should be rw-r--r--), and then reboot for the change to take effect. Again, I haven't gotten this to work for me, but I'm on a Sense-based ROM. The successes reported were on Heros with their "darchdroid" ROM.

I have an idea for getting this to work with Sense, and I'm testing my theory right now. My theory is that we're missing its dependencies (in /system/lib), so I'm going to just flash the "Android Keyboard for Sense" from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5874235#post5874235
And then flash the new Droid X keyboard on top of that. Maybe that'll work.
UPDATE: YES! It works! Hang on, I'll post an update.zip to take care of installing it...

Can you post the flashable droid x keyboard for those on froyo or vanilla roms

It should already work on Vanilla ROMs. Just install the APK on the first page of this thread. The pre-requisite is that you have to have the Android stock keyboard (com.google.inputmethod.latin) installed, which you do.
The tricky part is a Sense ROM, because it doesn't have the Android keyboard.
Attached is a flashable ZIP to install the Droid X Multi-Touch Keyboard onto a Sense-based ROM (or any ROM without the Android stock keyboard).
Credit to itmustbejj for original keyboard.

so I got it to install but I just get it force closing every three seconds

[METAMORPH] hakkeshou tazz/tenzo sense froyo espresso (2010-11-07 - Work Around)

For users of the newly released sense froyo ROMs who can't stand the stock sense launcher I whipped up a quick espresso style morph (search for Metamorph here or the market) to hold everyone over until they are done getting this fully working so you don't have to deal with that pathetic stock launcher (odd considering HTC are essentially mobile interface gods to many of us here).
WORKAROUND FOR REPORTED ISSUE:
If you run into any issues it seems unzipping it outside of MM and dropping it into /sdcard/AndroidThemes manually should work around it.
http://labs.cities2night.com/droid/hakke_tenzo _tazz_sense _froyo_2.2_espresso_morph.zip
For those who asked about 2.1, yes should work fine. Nothing but PNGs are in this morph so it will work on any rosie launcher.
Screenshot attached.

Haven't tried it yet but thanks in advance!

Hey I have downloaded this several times, and I keep getting an error in metamorph, something about the way the .zip is set up... hoping to try it out, it looks really nice, but can't figure it out

Would this work for a 2.1 sense rom?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741875
I couldn't get this one in this thread to do anything period because it's not signed right according to Metamorph, but the one in the link I posted worked like a charm for xtrSense 4.6.

just fyi for anyone running Tenzo 2.2 Sense, this mm theme hangs while applying the htc.resources and then gets caught in a boot loop. I'll try to just apply the rosie theme and see if that takes at all.
EDIT: I knew it was a longshot to use a 2.1 theme on a 2.2 rom, but yeah it didn't take at all. Hopefully either i can figure out how to do hakkeshou's one or he will fix it.

It should work if you press menu in metamorph and then settings then check the box that says Disable all warnings, I extracted the entire zip into its own folder in androidthemes.

Wow thanks, that worked perfectly!

Thanks for feedback. Since I made the morph I just copied the filer to /sdcard/AndroidThemes so the issue seems to be caused by using MM to unzip the theme folder into that folder.
Odd but but at least my hunch was verified to be correct. I'll update the OP.

Not sure what you are asking...there are tons and tons of themes in the market that you can try...what you linked to was a ROM just from looking at the topic title...can you elaborate on what you are asking?

Im looking for a zip update that changes the whole phone theme like the link that I posted. I don't like using home replacements. I hope this makes sense?

1. Are you rooted?
2. What ROM are you on currently?
3. Are you looking at staying on the current ROM but updating your theme?
If you don't mind me asking, why don't you like using home replacements?

Well I'm just use to using sense and I love it but hate to stock colors on it.

It sucks because you could use ninjamorph or metamorph if you weren't on the aria...have you tried circle bat mod? You can't change everything but you can change quite a few things...

here is something i did real quick. i dont have anything to test it on right now, so have the old apk on hand if this one didnt work.
if it doesnt work, i will work on it later tonight and test on a phone

Thanks a bunch! Looks to be working fine. Was it just one file you had to change? If so would I be able to copy the file to other themed dialers to change the spelling?
