First, and foremost, I did NOT make this modification, all I did was bundle it up in a nice little update zip for ZenEXP-Eris users. I was given permission to post this by Zippy-Man, the creator of the theme.
Please note that this is for the custom XDA-Developers HTC_IME keyboard, not the standard HTC_IME keyboard, although if you were to install this on a non-ZenEXP-Eris ROM, it would delete your stock keyboard and replace it with this.
I don't know that this will work on other ROMs, but I see no reason it won't. However, you all update with this at your own risk!
For your typing pleasure, I present to you an alternative keyboard theme in black, by Zippy-Man.
Instructions:
Download BlackKB_signed.zip (MD5: BE6282DBA74C90410B791F9A58E95911)
Place it on your SD card
Reboot into recovery
Make a nandroid backup, if you wish
Flash BlackKB_signed.zip
Reboot your device and wait for dalvik to recreate (Shouldn't take long, ZenEXP-Eris is odexed!)
For those who don't like the alternative keyboard above, but didn't make a nandroid backup, here's the original, in a tidy little update zip.
Instructions:
WARNING: This will delete Dalvik Cache (which will rebuild itself when you reboot)
Download OriginalKB_signed.zip (MD5: 8C6B65BADB9D48773B3D84A8E01F2572)
Place it on your SD card
Reboot into recovery
Make a nandroid backup, if you wish
Flash OriginalKB_signed.zip
Reboot your device and wait for dalvik to recreate (Shouldn't take long, ZenEXP-Eris is odexed!)
If you enjoy this, please consider thanking Zippy-Man for his hard work.
Hello,
i have GOT 2.2, and now i want to install teh latest Cyanogenmod.
However i dont know were to include "update-0.04-10.12.08-cm-6.1.0-Milestone-signed.zip".
In my sd card i have 2 folders:
OpenRecovery
OpenRecovery-CFG
Should i put somewhere inthere the files downloaded?
Or should i delete them, and download another Open Recovery?
Thank you so much for the help!
here => Openrecovery\updates
Then in the OR you have to choose the option apply update.zip
/Edit: did u flash the 2.2.1 kernel first or is this already included in this zip?
kernel is included in the zip
(i update to CM6 from 2.1)
but you can flash 2.2.1 got if you want (i don't know why you should do this, but you can ^^)
When you say flash you mean sbf? Yes I used sbf and then used the update zip and GOT open recovery.
Thus now I should not delete any folder and just copy the new zip file in updates? There are some other files in there, should I delete them?
And then just apply the update zip through the known way when stating phone? And will see there the updates and choose cynam.

Anyone please?
As i got really confused!
If i just delete the whole two folders and start from scratch would it be ok?
Or does the system need the Open Recovery Folders?
you can put the zip file into the folder"/OpenRecovery/updates"
then reboot your phone to recovery,choose "update.zip"
after that you can choose "update",find "update-0.04-10.12.08-cm-6.1.0-Milestone-signed.zip"
apply,then reboot.over
OK thanks when i apply the update this comes up:
Reboot System
Console
--- Stock Features---
Nandroid
Root Phone
---GOT Modding Menu---
Launch 2,1 Menu
Launch 2.2.1 Menu
Launch CM6 menu
---- Stock GOT Features Menu---
Miscellaneous
USB Mas Storage mode
Settings Menu
Wipe & Cleaning Menu
Open Recovery loader
ok found it it was in another menu!
So i suppose the same would happen for other ROMs as well?
For example MIUI?
MIUI is the same,but not every rom.
you should watch the notice carefully
and before and after your updating,
wipe is very important.
or mabe you can't pass the M picture
Well, with this Rom, I can't connect to google services.
Gmail is not in my applications and also I can't install it... market cannot load... when I press add account, it just goes to desktop...
Any ideas about what shall I do? Now I have nil contacts...

my question is i cannot see it in the recovery list when i reboot? i only see `update.zip` and i dont want to use this incase its something else
should i not be able to see the filename as it is i.e `ginger azure`
if there is a thread about this somewhere please post a link and apologies

you have to choose option install zip from sdcard when in CWM and there you should see folders and zip files of your internal sdcard

which kernel do you use and where did you put theme when you downloaded it
?
i used the theme in this link from this site

Hi all,
I have a rooted Rogers Captivate running stock Rogers 2.2 with OCLF. The other day I installed busybox and anim mod, and today I decided to change my transitions with anim mod.
After applying the change, it asked me to restart my phone. I clicked yes, and it hung for a moment before showing a force close screen. However, before I could do anything, it reset, but after the logos and startup animation, it vibrated and went to black. The soft keys still light up, but no buttons including holding down power have any effect.
After pulling out the battery, I discovered I could still get to recovery console (and I'm fairly certain I could get into download mode as well), but my main concern is getting to / backing up my contacts.
Your help would be enormously appreciated!

1. Check the files that are present in the theme u installed - typically the files under the system folders
2. Ask ur ROM developer to package these files (from original ROM) into a CWM flashable zip file (assuming u do not know how to do this)
3. Push this to ur phone using adb and install it on ur phone
Next time on, when installing any theme not made 'specifically' for ur ROM, refrain from doing so. In case you are in a mood to experiment, it would recommended to take a nandroid backup in case issues like this come up.
Since u say urs is stock, u could package these files from ur stock zip. For this u'd have to find a Roger's stock zip file, and u should be able to find an empty update.zip to package these files into (attaching template update.zip to this post; open in winrar).
Thank you very much for helping me with this diablo, I really got myself into a mess and I appreciate your help trying to get me out of it.
I'm not running any themes on top of Rogers 2.2, it's pure stock. I don't have CWM on my phone, nor have I used ADB before. Also, I'm not sure where or how I'd get the stock zip, I did download your template but I don't know how to fill it with what I need.
Thanks again,
Alex
Oh, and if you give me a donate button or paypal account, I'd be happy to show my gratitude.

Alex, try searching for Rogers stock ROM. U should be able to find it on these forums.
II
Meanwhile, try posting a thread to ask people here who may be on Rogers stock to zip up their /system/framework folder.
Asking for /system/app zip would not be a good idea since it would contain paid apps too. So alternately,
1. Open the theme zip that u put on ur phone
2. Navigate to /system/app folder
3. List down the apps u see there
4. Ask for anyone who's on stock rogers if they can zip up these files for u.
III
Next, considering u have the apps and the contents of /system/framework:
1. Open the file I sent u in 'winrar'
2. Navigate to system/app folder
3. Drop the apps u got from 'whoever-helped-u' into this folder
4. Navigate to system/framework folder
5. Drop the files in system/framework from 'whoever-helped-u' into this folder
6. Close winrar and rename to update.zip
IV
7. Put this file on ur SD card root
8. Boot into recovery
9. Select 'apply update.zip' (not sure of exact wording)
10. Reboot
Also, what is the theme u downloaded?
I put the steps in blocks so it would be easy to trouble shoot in case u run into any issues.
All the best Alex.
[Q] Phone won't get past boot screen, please help
Thank you again, Diablo, lunch is on me today.
I don't have any themes installed, this is the program that created the trouble for me, which I download from the Android Market:
http://www.androidblip.com/android-themes/anim-mod-root-136113.html
I clicked on the "fly in & flip" selection.
I will make a post requesting a stock rogers 2.2 zip of their /system/framework folder.
Is there anything else I'm missing, and once I get the /system/framework get it into the update.zip, how do I get it onto my SD card root, or do I just put it on the root of an external SD card?

I see its a paid app, so can't say whats in it. But since its into animations and stuff, most likely it messed up some files in ur framework folder. Send me the update.zip file after u update so I can cross check before u can flash it on ur phone.
Hi Diablo,
I wrote a new post at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=997233
Am I asking for the right thing?
Also, on the app page it says "Anim Mod changes the system framework files without touching your theme so if you constantly switch from ROM to ROM you can always get the animation you prefer the best."
Does this make anything simpler?
Thanks again for continuing to help me,
Alex

Yes. It says it changes files. I would NOT recommend any such app that changes framework files with/without knowledge, unless, there is a way backup plan at hand to revert to stock.
I normally take a nandroid backup of my ROM before playing with things like this, so in case things mess up, atleast there is a working copy of ROM.
Secondly, since u said u need contacts, I would recommend the following:
1. Install titanium backup (TiBu in short)
2. Backup "Contacts Storage"
3. Copy this folder "Titanium Backup" from sdcard to a safe location (e.g., ur computer)
This would backup ur contacts. So in case u mess up with something, u can always copy this folder to ur sdcard and restore using TiBu.
U can also backup all user apps and data so u can restore all ur apps and data in these kinds of situations. But do NOT backup or try to restore any system data except the one contacts storage I mentioned above.
Also, be warned, contacts data cannot be moved this way between different versions of ROM like 2.1 and 2.2. But u can move between 2.2 and 2.2.1. I was also able to restore this data on 2.3.3 gingerbread.
Personally, I now use "Sprite Backup" to backup and restore my data.
Thanks for your effort yesterday Diablo. I decided to odin flash the stock rogers 2.1, repartition, and upgraded to 2.2 via kies. I lost my contacts, but couldn't go any longer without the phone. I'm gonna back everything up right now!

Sorry to hear that Alex. This time make sure u backup "Contacts Storage" in Tibu when u r on 2.2.
Else use Sprite Backup or anything similar to help backup.
Hi Guys! I finally can release my first customized themed ROM from SP3DV build! This is my daily use ROM and think it is so good to share it.
I'd prefer to shared the NANDROID (backup restore) but maybe upload the usual installing .zip file in next days. The major advantages of this rom is that it can boot with SD CARD inserted (It work for me and hope to work with any SD CARD type). Also use an app (tasker) that prevents rebooting after any missed call.
FEATURES:
- Based on CyanogenMod 7.1 Android 2.3.7
- This is a MOTO BLUR themed rom. (I don't use the BLURHOME launcher becouse it is so heavy for X1. Instead I use a blur theme for Great GO LAUNCHER EX)
- Changed Bootanimation with a 3D CYANOGENMOD7.
- JAVA enabled (For installing .jar files).
- New WALLPAPERS.
- 3 new AOSP themes Added (MOTOBLUR, ANASTASDROID, ROVER BLACK).
- Customized framework-res.apk.
- US text-to-speech (tts) Added.
- Changed the default FONT with the CHINT font.
- used the last Zargloub's kernel (gf111062 - 28.2.2012).
- CPU Max and Min frequency customized (128~614MHZ).
ADDED:
- Go launcher ex with BLUR theme, Go locker, Go locker themes, Go taskmanager, Go weather.
- Gauge battery widget.
- X-plore.
- Smart keyboard pro.
- Multitasking pro (With long press of home key it appears).
- Ucbrowser and Ucxunlei (a great chinese downloading app).
- Audio effect.
- TASKER (A good replacement of chinese Newding) [Great Thanks to BORKISHA and other guys that introduce it].
REMOVED:
- Stoke Android Keyboard.
- Old CMWALLPAPERS.
- CM7 old themes.
- Newding
BUGS:
THIS ROM IS UNROOT! So there are some bugs like wifi problems!
IF YOU DONT HAVE THE CLOCKWORKMOD recovery flashed to your XPERIA X1, please see the link blow till flashing CLOCKWORKMOD recovery. [thanks to Kerfooly]

IMPORTANT NOTE:
There are not something special in that build! just can find a way to prevent SD CARD checking while boot! I find that if the build be unroot it can't stuck while boot! I try 4zroot for unroot but it can't reroot! When the build be unroot some bugs appear! If the unroot-reroot problem solves, can say that the SD CARD problem finally can be solved!
first one unbelivable it really works with sdcard inserted nice job attisa!!!!
my simcard can't get detected with this rom
wow...really this build can used daily ??

I'd post the installer .zip file in some next days! But for now you can modify the TASKER app to use your ringtone! because this app use the SD CARD ringtones to prevent reboot when phone rings!

I have no idea why your simcard can't detected. Did you try reboot or replacing the simcard?! I think you do it! Hope that the .zip file don't have this problem!
Hi, thanks for this. I've just installed it. Whats wrong with wifi? its showing an "error" message and its not finding any network. Also, are GAPPS included ?
Could you tell us what did you do to fix SDcard problem to fix another roms because I really like IceDroid
Thanks

The simplest way is that use 4zroot.apk for unroot-reroot the device!

thanks a lot! and what's the reason for the boot problem? do you know it?

So, just load it up, click unroot then reboot, then run again and chose reroot?
for me it gives force closes and system is totally messed after unroot and i'm not able to reroot...
but boot works with sdcard inserted...
Just like me
Wifi doesn't work anymore
what kind of crap you posted attisa didn't you tried it before?
but solution is near...
wifi is also messed up for me...
EDIT: oh ok i understand this is the mod you did to the rom but i prefer to remove sdcard than to have no su rights and no wifi
but pretty good the solution is near
you only should mentioned the problems more clearly and earlier...
I think all of these problems are as result of shell rooting
If there is a way to could full root the NAND roms, all problems will gone (missed call reboot, SDcard, wifi, ...)
If it ok I share tasker and it's settings
What are the Phone Offhook and Phone Idle ?
Sorry OP, but i have to close this. Next time, do not include paid software in your release..
