Here's the background:
I was on Cyan 4.2.3.1 with Little Big Planet theme. Everything was perfect. Then I updated to Cyan 4.2.4 and no theme (theme wasn't updated yet), still everything worked OK, except some of the icons - the google apps ones - didn't change back to the standard icon. It retained the Little Big Planet icon. This was the gmail, youtube, maps, market, and gtalk icons.
Then I went to Cyan 4.2.5 and applied Buuf theme. I thought all the icons would change to Buuf's icons, but the google app icons still stayed at the standard icons.
How can I get Buuf's icons for these apps back? Thanks
I find that you always want to flash the original rom before applying the update to avoid these types of issues. In other words, don't go from a theme to a base rom and then to another theme. Just like you should not go from one theme to another theme before going back to base rom.

Yeah, the only thing is the google apps come from the HTC image rather than Cyanogen's ROM.
So my advice would be to reflash the HTC image, then Cyanogens ROM then your theme of choice, and do that every time you change theme.
Since I also have the maps with navigation, will I need to run those steps too before updating the theme?
One more question, should I wipe or go straight to reflashing the HTC image and cyanogen rom?
I would wipe first and flash the rom before doing the whole htc image deal.
Hmm... wiping and flashing just the base rom didn't work. I'm going to go try to wipe, flash htc image, and then flash rom again.
NOOO YOU CAN FLASH MY THEME TEMPLATE!!
my theme template has google apps so it will replace them

I ended up wiping, flashing the. HTC image, and then flaahing cyan. After that the icons went back to standard icons. No more Little Big Planet icons. So then I applied the Buuf theme and the icons stayed the standard icons, it didn't change to the Buuf look.
I've never had problems with any theme before this.
Is there a way to manually change these icons, or will the theme template do that?

lol. Yezzir! They're the application icons that you made for Darkstar. I edited some of 'em to white to match the background I had on there(not the one in the screenshots). A thank you to you.
Edited images, new colors, and new designs! Check it out and let me know what you think!
Your on a roll here,seemslike your evolving them into your own style launcher.
This is just a suggestion but maybe try playing around with the background a little trying different gradients&some transpacency.

Cool. So, this will work on xROM? Can you offer the regular Grey color as well? Unless somenone already has a Metamorph for 2.01/2.1. Also, I suggest a way to revert back to original Eclair launcher if possible..
Thanks.

you know, i have only tried it on cyanogen, and not the 2+ ROMS, but hang tight. I will get a metamorph for that ASAP. You can try it and see if it will work, and let me know. And I will add a regular metamorph eclair launcher for 1.6 and 2+ to revert back.

This DOES work on xROM. Just looked at the xROM drawables, and they are also the same files. Really it should work with any ROM. Whether 2.01, 2.1 OR 1.6 so have at it. more colors and designs coming soon.

help
how do i apply this?
This really should not work on xROM. Can anyone confirm otherwise? The res folders in 1.6 and 2.0 all have different names. Thus you probably need to open up the morph and change some folder names (i.e. drawable-land to drawable-land-mdpi).

you speak the truth, my friend. Good point. I forgot about the extra mdpi business. Thanks for the head's up. I'll make a version compatible to all then soon. Glad you pointed that out!

No problem. I have ported enough graphics from donut to eclair to know this issue all to well.
Here is an idea, write a short script that renames all of your folders for you. Search on using the "for all" command in linux, and you could make a short script that will port these to eclair, which could be run from the phone terminal.

download metamorph from the market, and if you download the free version, you also have to download 'AndExplorer' from the market to be able to use this, but i don't think you do if you download the 'donate' version. You will use AndExplorer when you're selecting the .zip folders. And then just download this unto the root of your sdcard and pick it after you select 'Pick Theme' on metamorph, and navigate to the .zip you downloaded from here and then click on 'apply all!', and it should do it's thing, then you should be done! Hope that helps!
Hi,
Very nice work, thanks. I'm searching an advanced launcher in eclair design only in black, can you help?

Where did you find that theme?
I created it a few months back, never really finished it, I suppose i should really.
I themed the phone.apk, dialer.apk, vending.apk, changed some of the status bar icons in framework-res.apk and a couple of other things.
Nice one! :-D
But does it gonna work with non rooted Hero?
I just want to ask whether the available themes in the APP and THEME part is going to replace my Launcher pro or not. Any idea?
Thanks before

Themes modify the system files, they aren't independent.
If you get a theme for a rom, it will modify things all around the rom.
If you get a theme for a program (adw) it will modify things inside the program only.
for example, I'm interested in using the ZEN theme or the minimalist theme. Can I use my LauncherPro after I flash the theme?
Does anybody know from where to download the metamorph themes.
I have already installed the metamorph app.
