BLACK HOLE
This is my latest theme for the Epic, and will most probably be the last before Froyo is out. I'm not sure the framework changes in Froyo, but I assume it will be no trouble to port all of my themes over to Froyo after the release. I hope you enjoy!
First you need to root

It should work on any deodexed rom but let me know of any issues. I'm running a stock deodexed di18

lookin good! only thing i would say is package a different wall paper in the mix. the dark blue icons dont play well with dark wallpapers. i would also say whip up a dock to match and youve got it!
Doc bar is in the works. So are plenty more extras.

do you know how the battery life on a stock deodexed di18 is compared to a custom deodexed rom. I really want to flash your theme. Also, does crake001 for the battery percentage mod work with stock deodexed and your theme?
i'm new to the android world but was successful with changing themes on my iphone. please help me by giving me step by step on how to apply this theme. i already downloaded to my samsung epic but is stuck there.

I haven't played around with too many roms to compare battery life. I carry two batteries and don't really worry about it. I didn't do the battery in percentages on this one. It is on the list for the future. Right this second I'm using a blue battery widget. Flashing my theme over crake's battery percentage will erase his mod, but it might be possible to copy my framework-res.apk and twframework.apk. I'm not sure though. Keep checking back and the percentage mod will end up on here.

Alright, first you need to download the one click root method and one click clockworkmod recovery if you haven't done that yet. The next step is you need to choose a rom that is deodexed, or download the stock di18 deodexed rom and flash the zip in clockworkmod recovery. You cannot theme the stock rom that comes on your phone, it must be deodexed so you don't run into force closed issues. Once your rom is booted and running, just boot back into recovery and apply blackhole.zip. That isn't the basic as the instructions get if you need more help, pm me and I'll go into further detail, as well as provide you with links to everything you need. Everything you need is available here at xda. Don't hesitate to ask more questions.

having some trouble with this theme i have tried it on the galaxy rom by noobnl and the epic experience and on both right after i flash it the browser,contacts,and messaging icons disappear.
Sorry to hear that! I haven't tested either of these roms with the theme. The only rom I ever themed besides stock di18 deodexed was andromeda. I'll contact a few people and find out if there is something I can change in the theme to fix this. I'll pm you with anything I find out and update the OP to let others know. Once again, sorry about that! I believe when apps dissappear like that it has something to do with noticing a change in the md5sum. So I'm guessing that I'll have to sign those apps individually to fix but I'll wait for some confirmation before having you flash a mistake again.

I found the root of the problem dealing with the theme erasing half the system apps out of the phone on flash. I re-worked the apps and just successfully flashed over Frontier GS 3.0 rom, but I know it will work finally because I had the aosp magic rom and my theme deleted all the apps on there as well. It was because I was still theming apps from the dg07 build instead of using the ones from di18. Since I was using stock di18 deodexed, for some reason the apps still took but when I flashed any rom at XDA, the results were bad. I will update the OP and post as soon as I post the fix. Sorry for any inconvenience anyone has suffered.
Theme is fixed, link is updated enjoy!
Theme update! I have been real busy but haven't stopped working on the theme. The dialer colors will be adjust next!
Included now is a fix for the power control widget where you can actually see the buttons. Also the camera is themed now, here are some pics:
**Notice in the pictures the button to switch from camera to camcorder is lighter than the rest, that was fixed before upload, they should all be the same.
Also I themed Tapatalk pro on my phone. Since so many people use it, I'll help anyone who wants their version to match. I'll supply the drawable-hdpi folder and show you how to copy it in.
wow awesome work! Where is that power control widget? does it live in another apk?
edit: I think I just found it in the settings.apk (?)
Yeah settings.apk, just pull out the pngs for the widget or you'll get the other colors as well

So i rooted and all that stuff, and i install a battery icon. the SGS Battery Icon Mod 2. and it reboots, but when going to the homescreen after reboot, i keeps looping into a black screen and back to home, with 3 vibrations. What is the problem and how do i prevent this in the future? I also had this problem when installing a font..

I believe you still have to flash back to stock using odin. Sounds like the battery mod you flashed was not compatible with your current state.
If you do not know what Odin is you can find it in the captivate development section

battery mods are not universal across devices and roms. the battery mod has to be made for your particular rom/firmware version (jf6/ji6/jk3/jk4/jpu/etc) you can make your own battery mod by visiting: http://circle.glx.nl/
you will need the ability to copy the framework-res.apk out of your current running rom (located /system/framework/)
the file that the kitchen spits out is clockworkmod flashable

I want to keep contributing as I can to this community. So I started this thread for Stock Themes with Reboot and Battery Mods.
Lately I have been getting a ton of requests for stock themes with battery mods. So I figured I would start working on that in my spare time and honestly, who wouldn't want the reboot mod....right?

Thank you... That made my day
Thank you very much for the hard work. I do have one question. The stock android man zip has both the standard hdpi folders and also hdpi-v4. From the best I can tell the v4 folders are not needed. Is that the case? Can those folders be removed without breaking anything? Thanks again for all of the help.
OK I know I am needy but one last question. You have included the twframework-res.apk in the package. Is that necessary for the batterymod or anything else in the package. I already have a modified one that I would rather not have to redo.
Pardon my ignorance. By reading this title, I am assuming this is for Stock ROM's. I tried to flash the circle mod and i get force closes galore. I also tried fixing permissions=no dice. Tried to wipe cache partition, dalvik cache, and reflash and keep getting the same result. Did I misread this or am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance!

I got it to work on the Syndicate ROM. Made a backup, wiped cache and dalvik three times each and have had only one force close at the beginning with LauncherPro, but that hasn't happened since. I just flashed because I wanted the little android mod and using battery icon mod made my phone go into a boot loop. So I can confirm it working for Syndicate, but I'm not sure about Bonsai or the others.
Great work by the way, ptfdmedic.

OK I went ahead and removed the v4 folders and used my own twframework-res.apk. Everything is working great. I only have one problem but I think that is an Epic problem and not your mod. When I charge the battery with an external charger or with the phone turned off it works great. If I charge the phone while it is on the phone will alert that it is full however the battery meter says 96%. Sometimes it will say 100% but as soon as I disconnect the charger is drops to 96%.
So thank you again for all that you do. It is much appreciated.

I am not sure if it works on every rom but it does work on stock ec05 so it doesn't require CIQ to be removed.
OK - forgive my inexperience in advance. I have Samsung Epic 4G just recently "rooted" , I have ROM Manager / CWM 3.0.2.4 = do I need to download / install something else ? or can I just download / install this ?

I am on the same setup as you. I used the android guy version. I did not flash it straight out so I am not positive of how it works. What I did was download the androidguy zip. I extracted the res folder from framework-res.apk. I removed all of the -v4 folders because they were duplicates. I replaced all of the images except the battery icons with the theme I am using. I replaced the twframework-res.apk with the theme file that I am using. I put everything back into the zip and flashed with clockwork. And that was all I did.
How did you install the modd? Did you just download and flash the zip in clockwork or did you modify it in any way? If you just flashed it straight out I would try removing the -v4 folders to make sure that is not the problem. If you modified it than make sure you only modified the images and not any of the xml files. Hope this helps. If you can provide more details about how you are installing it maybe we can assist further but try this for now.

I can't say for certain if it will work for you or not but it is something to try. All I can say is what I did using the android guy version. I have not tried the blue circle on. Plus I have customized it a bit and am using my own framework.res file. So any portion of that could be the difference. But let us know how this one goes and maybe the op can help figure it out.
As the topic says, of all the current Themes available right now for CM7 Nexus S, i can't find any with a nice looking circular battery mod as found on the SuperAOSP ROM.
If anyone knows of any replacement mods for the battery, or know of a good transparent theme with a circular battery, please point me to it
thanks
I use vivid from market that has a battery mod percent on it ...and nice theme too

I too am looking for a circle battery, but I do not want to use vivid. I like what I am using, I just need a new icon.
yeah exactly, back in SGS i9000 there was a nice little mod that you can install ONLY to replace the battery
i'd like something like that for our phone
and that Mod on the SGS was compatible with all themes, as it only replaces the battery pictures.
In the cm7 thread somebody posted a cm7 theme with circular battery percentage

I too am looking for a battery circle/% like the one from supeaosp. I liked his battery cirlce 2 theme in theme chooser. Can we extract that from his rom and use it in CM7? Zeroxs also has a nice theme with blue battery circle (this one is my favorite) and I would love to have cyanbread theme while just adding that blue battery circle; can this be achieved?
Thanks for any help. Hopeing CM7 will add this feature, not sure why they don't with everything else they work on...

Go to the bottom of the post and click on the CM7 link. Then download the honey theme. You can also get it for the stock rom, just click the Stock link instead of CM7. They are right next to each other.
I flashed the theme over stable CM7 and it shows up fine.

I tried this before but it changed the drop down notification bar and implemented the entire theme. I don't want that because it made the drop down bar laggy, I guess due to the velocity issues or whatever was wrong with CM7 before. That was fixed as of nightly 41, which I'm running now... would definitely like to flash just that honey battery icon in blue... let me know if anyone knows how.
My request is a zip file to remove clock from the taskbar. If this is done already, please point me in the right direction. I have OTA 2.2, rooted, and I deodexed with xUltimate, pretty much stripped all bloatware. Am using the UOT Kitchen to do a battery as we speak, but would like to get rid of the clock in the taskbar. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
**EDIT
apparently the UOT Kitchen doesnt like my framework-res. uploaded and only changed to castaway battery and get tnoghing but force closes...grrrrr! any suggestions here too is appreciated.
Hrm. There's one to RESTORE it. But remove it... hm. Not sure.
The sbrissen mod includes clock options. Install it using clockwork. Then once booted, go into settings--> date and time and you'll find what you need.

We don't bother making remove clock service jars anymore when his mods allow u to change it on the fly rather than fully removing it like we used to have to
Just flash his mods
Sbrissen mod was just what I needed. Thank you all. Now if I can just find a way to change the stock battery to "Castaway" id be set. Im not much for acc bat. Thanks again.
