Decompile every apk in the theme and in the jv9 base and compare all the files and then make changes. You will need to edit png, .9.png (search for it) xml, and smali files if they were edited

search the Themes and Apps section for Theme Porter. There was a link provided a while back to another thread in the Android Themes section with a tool that uses scripts so you don't have to decompile the apk unless you need to do xml edits.

the key thing with that app is that the folders in the apk have the same names. So if one has the -v4 end to it; then the other has to as well. It does work with gingerbread just fine. I used it myself to port some themes over while I was running a few gingerbread builds. You could also try to UOT kitchen. It works very well with Gingerbread.

while hunting for some customized themes for the zio i have run across uot kitchen. for those of us who have not progressed to creating our own themes yet this can help you customize one for you. it is super simple. you upload your framework-res.apk and it will allow you to add their boot animations, fonts, icons plus more. once you have selected what you want it takes about a min or two and it has a custom zip signed and ready to download.

To make the UOT Zips flashable you must take the com folder from META-INF out of the zip from UOT Kitchen and replace it with the com folder from META-INF openZIO 1.0 Theme. The flash needs the correct update-script which UOT doesn't give us. But if you replace it with the com folder in META-INF from the openZio theme it will flash.

okay here is one made from uot kitchen and for those who say you have to change the zip yall have done something wrong. this is just as it was sent from uot.
I'm not doing anything wrong. The UOT Pick up website has a thing that tells you how to fix errors on it. I got a Status 0 error which the website says to replace the updater-script, which in our phones case is update-script. I fed it framework-res.apk just like it said. Maybe you weren't running the openzio theme? Just sayin, don't be so fast to be like you're wrong.

when you upload your framwork-res.apk on the left side you have a few options that need to be changed. the fist one is edify scripting or amend scripting. choose amend second turn off theme chooser preview. last if you do a bootanimation make sure you use the sense rom option and not froyo default option. Also I did it both using the openzio theme and stock. try it and if that does not work let me know i will almost bet that will solve your issues. last didnt mean to make you think i am rude about what how or what i have posted.

here you go just copy your framework res apk to your desktop and upload that to the kitchen and then pick and chose what you want to change. Once that is done submit to the kitchen and wait a few mins then pick up your flashable zip file to flash in cwm.

I think that while you use tw, it will be the same for apps like root explorer, my files and so on. some of the roms are themed so that may be why it looks different. can't really say as I prefer just plain stock, and even with holo launcher hd it uses the tw colors when opening apps.

Since you edited the SecPhone.apk check the in-call Dailer. And you don't have to create a flashable zip, you can just push file to /system
In call_dailer_press.9.PNG refers to the pressed button and in call_keypad_BG_01.PNG refers to the keypad I've edited only the later one but changes just don't show up this is the first time I've encountered such an error...

Theming the dialer to the extent of the one in that ROM is far from easy, you'd be better downloading the ROM and using the dialer from it ... Although I imagine it requires themed framework files aswell to look like that.

Not sure you will get the full themed look mate as it has themed framework files which, if flashed, would replace the ones from your current ROM which would most likely affect any Mods you use that require the same frameworks and/or apps. You can just drag the dialer and phone apps out of the ROM and try flashing them on their own but they are from a different base so there's no guarantee they'd work ... Check this thread, that's the RGUI ROM for the one but you'd have to install it to use the built in kitchen app to download the theme
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2318947

That dialer is not belonged to MIUI instead it is sense dialer only. I guess ROHIT stopped making roms for sense. If you have his ROM, then you can extract all the pngs from drawable's folder of contacts & phone.apk and copy to the existing phone.apk & contacts in the corresponding folders. Later decompile the respective apks and go to colors .xml and change the color to blue for the sub text. You can get the color code from the RGUI decompiled apks's though. After compiling back, you can push the apk through adb and then reboot!
Infact ROHIT (dev of RGUI) did shared all his white themeing files with me , but i was too lazy to do the themeing though!

I followed your post from my thread to here. It's a basic white keyboard that has the colors in xml edited slightly. It wouldn't take much to theme but you can't send over the images as there are xml coding in a few different places that needs to be added to the apk. The colors will not affect system as they are apk related only. The problem is you need to theme both the Phone.apk and Dialer.apk.
Cheers...

It depends. It looks like a Sense ROM. You can pull the Dialer and Phone apk from the zip and add into system/apps and see if that works. Make a back up of your original ROM first.
