For those with EB01 theme problems.... - Fascinate Themes and Apps

Ive noticed an abnormal number of issues (across forums and irc ive seen dozens and dozens of the same issues/questions) that people are having with themes for EB01. It seems the main problem is that many people are using the original EB01 leak and that IS NOT DEODEXED.
Your rom/system must be deodexed to use themes. Examples of deodexed roms are adryn's superclean...and now there is a full deodexed version of the eb01 leak.
As of now, you must have 1 of these 2 to use themes on EB01. Or either the theme won't take, or just some parts of it will, or some stuff won't stick after another reboot.
Hope this helps clear the air.

Thank you much sir. I'm sure theres tons of people that were confused when they tried to apply a theme and hardly anything happened.

thanks for clearing that up. I just downloaded the stock deodexed version....I'm still on the original completely stock EB01, do I need to clear caches and wipe data before flashing to deodexed?

Glad you put this out there. I was getting endless amounts of questions and issue reports from people who were not deodexed. I now can simply link them to this post.

Sweet thanks! Theme flashing party tonight lol

Well that explains all the problems I was having before I went to SC 2.2.
Thanks for the explanation now if I decide to go back to eb01 stock I'll still be able to use themes .
Again thank you so much.

[ROM] JI6 OTA deodexed with stock JI6 kernel and modem

Hi everyone,
Saw a request for this in vibrant general, and while I'm sure most devs and cooks will have long since already deodexed the OTA JI6 for their own uses, hopefully this will still be of use to somebody.
So, that said, this is the stock JI6 OTA rom, fully deodexed, with the stock JI6 kernel and modem, pre-rooted with busybox installed.
NOTE: this was made from the "T959UVJI6 ## NEW" ODIN firmware posted a while back.
Many thanks to all the wonderful devs here, and especially to Eugene373 and Anomalous for provinding the original JFD deodexed base that I used to learn how to compile my own flashable roms.
Warning, this will wipe your data, and this has only been tested via clockwork recovery.
Download: Removed, sorry, caused problems for some people
Cheers everyone, =)
Thanks this is just what I needed.
Me too! I would also like to learn how to do this myself in future. I dual boot ubuntu 10.04 and windows 7, so any tips in either os?

Hi,
Sorry for the issue.
I'm honestly not sure why its happening, it didn't happen on my phone when I tested everything before uploading, and the bootclasspath's used for deodexing were the same that anomalous used for the original JFD deodexed rom. That said, admittedly, I usually run a personalized version of either frankin-twiz/hybrid or bionix rom daily, was only uploading this since I had already deodexed JI6 for personal use (I always like to build new theme's/mods from unmodified/stock files) and saw a request in general.
Anyway, at this point, since sombionix moved to the OTA files too, I'm probably not going to look into it or really support this, sorry.

[CM6][Theme][Edify]Gingerbread theme for cyanogenmod

Ok, this is the deal, READ THE THINGS IN RED.
THIS THEME IS NOT MINE. ORIGINAL, NON-EDIFY THREAD HERE http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=867850 - This is for Evo but works on Epic.
I TRIED MAKE THIS EDIFY MYSELF BUT IT DIDN'T WORK. I FOUND THIS THEME ON GOOGLE AND DON'T KNOW WHO MADE IT EDIFY.
YOU NEED TO BE ON CYANOGENMOD FOR THIS THEME. THERE IS ANOTHER ONE FOR OTHER ROMS.
This will work with cwm 2 and 3.
Anyways, enjoy http://www.multiupload.com/YCKVXWZTHI
This gave me a boot loop, unfortunately.
Edit: Tried again after restoring Nandroid, working fine now for whatever reason. Very good theme.
I personally don't recommend this theme and advise everyone to stay away from flashing this, I can confirm that it caused issues for myself and may cause even more unforeseen problems as our CM6.2 ROM develops.
Wait for a proper CM6.2 Gingerbread theme or stick with DK28 and the Gingerbread theme for DK28.

Theme fix not working

So I'm trying to use the theme fix for DL09 to flash the midnight theme for DJ05 but I can't seem to get it working. I've tried every combo I can think of involving wipe cache, fix permissions, etc. Should I be wiping the dalvik cache? I'm not sure what the problem could be. I'm running franken kernel DL09 undervolted, on a stock deodexed rom that's i've successfully flashed the neongt DL09 theme to. Anyone who can give me some guidance would be much appreciated.
Edit: So i flashed adrynalynes super clean .4 rom, just to experiment, and wiped the dalvik cache and fixed permissions, and ended up with the boot screen running for a solid 15 minutes looping. Don't know if this helps. Rebooted again to the force close loop. Restoring old rom again. Bleh.
Just confirming that you are doing the following:
1. flashed the theme zip via red CWM
2. Before leaving recovery AND rebooting, applying the theme fix. In other words, flash the theme and immediately flash the theme fix.
3. Then reboot.
I am on DL09 and just recently flashed the theme (several others as well)..using the above steps.
Also, it may take a few minutes to fully boot up. I believe it is messing with android.policy.jar or one of those files, which causes a longer boot-up.
Hope this helps.

Ya, I've followed the instruction exactly, and then tried free style combos of factory reset, dalvik cache, fix permissions, etc. I can't seem to get this ironed out. Maybe I'm missing a step here but if it's only what you've mentioned above i'm dead on.

The Midnight Theme in particular seems to cause issues for those on DL09, even with full wipes and the theme fix.
Maybe this is a stupid question, but why is anyone still designing themes exclusively for DJ05? I would think everybody would be upgrading to DL09 ROMs now, and there's a surprising lack of theme support for DL09 for some reason. At the very least, I would expect any new themes created after the DL09 release to be compatible with it.

DL09 and DJ05 kernels aren't interchangeable. They either brick your phone, or cause force close loop when you mix and match.
I haven't gone to DL09 because I haven't read anything saying its different from DJ05.

This is completely incorrect. Yes, you can use a DJ05 kernel with a DL09 ROM perfectly fine. It will NOT be the cause of a brick / FC loop.

It's bricked me before, and they're listed specifically as DJ05 or DL09 in my experience. Why would roms be listed by DL09, DJ05 grouping? Not tryin to be snarky, but if you can link more info on the matter I'd really be interested in checkin it out. Truth be told i've only flashed DJ05 roms over a DL09 kernel now that I think about it. Works one way but not the other maybe?
kernels and roms are different. I believe you are correct about roms being picky about dj05 vs dl09, but I believe kernels are pretty interchangeable.

Ah ha, thanks for the clarification, yes the kernels go back and forth pretty easily. When flashing new roms though you should flash a rom appropriate to your kernel.

[Q] looking for stock froyo debloated

im looking for a superclean froyo rom.. stock froyo debinged debloated zipaligned deodexed..
these are easy to find on fascinate forums. but im having difficulty finding them in your forums as there are so many custom roms..
mods please stop closing my threads. this is a valid question. i have a rom chart from my last thread (closed) but they all look like custom roms to me.
what is your stock froyo rom called? ex ours in fascinate are called things like (eb01)
KB1
But you probably won't find anyone with a debloated zipaligned deoxeded version, it's still crap without all the fixes from the custom roms.
Cognition 4.x was close to stock Froyo, but it has since gone custom crazy. Andromeda 1.2 is based on a stock Captivate ROM for the Armani version and while it has some nice tweaks, it is still pretty close in appearance and function to stock, but without all the bloat.

It was a limited version of the Captivate designed for Georgio Armani. Electronically, it is the same as our Captivate in every way. Software-wise, it has a customized version of Froyo with some Armani touches like the bootscreen and system font. Andromeda simply removes the carrier bloat and adds performance enhancements like Voodoo lagfix, working GPS and some other nice touches. It runs flawlessly on my Captivate.
For lite and quick, I've always relied on Andromeda or Paragon RC6.
As for just a stock 2.2 without the bloatware, I've never actually seen any.

Use titanium backup to remove the aps you don't want

I think I an explaining this correctly, enabling sideloading allows you to install apps from sources other than the market. Ie: you can DL an apk right to your phone and install it.

This should have gone in the Mosaic IV Q&A section. And to answer your question...Typically when installing themes you want to make sure the theme was made using the same firmware version that you are running. Such as a JVH theme should be applied to a JVH rom. Also you could have asked in the theme thread how to install the theme, but I checked it out for you. It's a CWM file. Just flash it in recovery, but make sure you make a back-up in case something gets messed up.
I did verify that it was a jvh rom. but i did not know how different the captivate & I9000 are. just wanted to make sure.
When you make sure i back up, what do you mean excatly? back up theme, if so how? or do you mean back up rom, kernel?
thanks for replying!

Just make sure you have a theme that you know for a fact will work with Mosaic IV. That way if something does mess up you can just boot into recovery and flash that theme instead of re-flashing the entire rom
Cool that's what i figured, i did have a back up. Everything looked awesome except for the "Contacts". When i would click on contacts it would get this error

I tried a couple themes from over in the i9000 forum .. You got that because those themes are not 100% compatible with our roms. The Cappy devs tweak stuff in the framework a little differently because of hardware differences etc and that causes mismatches, especially with themed apps like contacts. I had the worst case of that ever when I flashed a theme over mosaic 3 and my dialer would give me that message after every number i typed in. crazy things can happen Its best to just to wait it out until the Mosaic team port all their stuff, that way you wont have any problems at all. They have all the best themes anyways.

I mean you can try, I found a couple that worked with roms I was using. Always keep a backup theme though. Ive been put in bootloops before and had to re-flash entire roms at like 12% battery just to get myself out.
Ya thats what i kinda figured. that them is awesome and i would love to have it on my captivate.
