[Q]Changing notification bar - HTC Incredible S

Is it possible to change the notification bar and/or its icons on a sense rom? Something similar to like CM7. I have read that Metamorph can be used to achieve this but I have no idea where to find its themes.
I am running Android Revolution+ no sense mod thus I have no access to the themes option in sense.
Any help would be appreciated regarding this matter.

I'm interested too

Found it my self, use UOT Kitchen and cook something delicious

Weok there are quite a few topics on this topic. But to give a little help.
First of all you can use uot kitchenhttp://uot.dakra.lt/
Or you can change the framework-res.apk yourself. Just decompile edit and recompile it again.
For both ways you need to be rooted.

Would be extremely thankful if ppl start making sense/nonsense themes especially since the phone has been s-offed!

[Q] Metamorph custom icon theme on MIUI rom?

I've been searching around and have only found one guide on creating a custom icon metamorph theme, it doesn't seem too bad. Thy only problem is it only said you can only morph app icons in system/app so since those are only rom apps, is there a way to change the icons on downloaded apps? I'm not sure where they are located but can you just move the apk and odex files for the downloaded apps to system/app and be able to morph them?
I'm using the MIUI rom but hate the way it puts the purple rounded box around icons, I'd like to be able to change the icon to a larger size that fills up the entire box.
Thanks in advance for any help or guidance

Thanks for linking us to the pack - now we can all use it
P.S., There should be a new rule in xda. If you post an awesome homescreen or say you found an enormous theme pack, you must link to the wallpaper, theme and all widgets - otherwise you are just teasing us.

Custom Dialer, notification bar, and keyboard?

Just wondering is it possible to use custom notification bars, dialers, and keyboard themes without flashing a new rom? I found some notification bars and dialers Id like to use from the Magnolia rom yet keep my HTC Sense. I dont use any launchers or anything. I prefer HTC Sense over the others.
I am rooted and I do run the HeyItsLou Kernel v8
You can use metamorph or ninjamorph, free from the market, to apply the images.
Or you can create an update zip containing the apk's and flash them in recovery.
I tried Metamorph, but nothing happened.
If you are running a deodexed 2.2 or 2.3 ROM you can use the Kitchen.

Somewhere in there I found some cool skins for HTC SENSE. This will only change a few things though. Not dialer and keyboards.
But themed Keys are easy to find. I'm sure you know all this, but I'm just trying to participate.

Do you have HTC HUB? And is it HTC SENSE 2.0?
I haven't had any problems installing them, but I'll try to help as much a possible.
Install just like a normal THIRD PARTY .APK

Not familiar with HTC Hub. Not even sure what version of HTC Sense I have. I dont know how to check for versions.
Me either (dont know how to check sense version.)
But there are some signs. When you press personalize, does a path drawer come up and have Skins, Wallpaper, Scenes, Widgets, Apps, Shortcuts, Folders, etc..?
If it just has the last four mentioned when you tap and hold your home screen, then you don't have HTC SENSE 2.0
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
When I hit personalize I get scenes, home wallpaper, and default ring tone. Im almost positive I have Sense v1.
So how can I get these things to work with Metamorph? I have all the files downloaded and ready to go.
I'm not sure, because I never needed or wanted to use MetaMORPH.
Can you post a screenie of your Home and Personalize menu?
And what phone do you have? I'm sure you just unpack the zip in MetaMORPH.
I don't know much about it.

I have the HTC Incredible through Verizon.
Okay. So now we know your stock ROM was Sense 1.0, what Sense Rom do you have now?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Oh, and a really nice ROM for DInc w/ Sense 2.0 is Myns Warm Z twopointtwo. You can change the skins to the ones you have downloaded.
By far my Favorite ROM for DInc when I had mine two days ago. Lol.

The stock HTC sense rom. I havent flashed any custom roms. I like the default one from HTC. I just want to change some minor things. I have a dialer picked out. I want to get rid of the verizon branding in my notification bar, and I want to change the battery icon and thats it.
Okay then you have to use metamorph. I'm pretty sure there's a tutorial somewhere around here. On the Myns Warm thread, there's a video tutorial on using MetaMORPH to change keyboards. I'm positive it works the same for battery and dialer.

After some researching I think my issue is with the amount of space in the /system folder. Only issue is I cant see that folder with Adao File Manager.

Root Explorer is the best in my opinion. I can view everything.

Change icon

Hi,
how do I change the icons in the menu? I want to put your icons there
thanks
I think it's at a folder called framework or something and then res/hdpi... You should use Root Explorer to do that because you need to access the internal memory of your device.
But I'm not sure, I'm not a themer. There are some tutorials here at XDA where you can find more information about that, with a lot of details. Some people have already made a few good jobs to teach us. I haven't tried those out yet due to my short free time but I'm sure that with a little search around the forums you can get all the infos you need to theme.
Good luck!

Have you tried a different launcher like ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro? They are customizable, there are themed supported. Take a look into that.

Transparent CM7 themes?

Any suggestions? I'm currently using MEIZU and it's pretty awesome, but are there any other themes that work with transparency like this one does?
Sent from my LG-VM670 using xda premium
off the top of my head a few are:
MIUI by same author as MEIZU theme
EasyDay
LunarUi
Orion
Moto
Evoluer
Naked Simplicity
i think you should be able to find them by searching "transparent status bar" in the search form (or something similar to that)
Also your gonna need ZduneX25 pacther to get it transparent.

No sir, Zdune made it so we could tweak our statusbars to make become transparent for specific themes, like themes posted graphic. But using the patcher can also be used for centering clock and such.
Some of the themes have transparent settings, contacts, dialer, mms, etc..
Wanting to have an app transparent, you'll probly have to do manually. Unless someone has already created an app that you want, that's been transparent.

Yes, I know it'll be cool. There's some guides floating around this theme section on how to create themes for theme Chooser and for MIUI Theme Manager.
I would post a linking to those threads, but I'm not currently at my computer. Sorry about that.
But good luck on learning how to create themes, I wouldn't mind testing a few themes from you when you start building some.

Well, yeah I can, but I'll have to use einstein's SystemUI as a new base and I'll probably have to adapt files from the old one and do some things all over again. I'll ask Einstein for permission to use his work as a base.

I removed quick settings today and installed this under the stock SystemUI.apk, it is much more elegant and the transition is supersmooth without the clutter.
Although it is not a perfect solution since below JB it is not possible to disable the status bar icon of Notification Toggle, only make it invisible as you can see on the 2nd screenshot (a gap from the left), but still it is more slick then it was. You can even download Sense icon pack within the app - which I guess could be used to change the icons on this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2139048
For sensed Revolution, it would be nice to see both versions in Aroma

The solution is intall that as on the SystemUi.apk, on the native files with XML(or other, i donĀ“t know that)
You can see the code from a Touchwith ROM or a LG UI3.0 Rom(LG OPtimus L5 for example)
Do you mean the gap on the top left in the status bar can be eliminated or something else, I didn't get it sorry.

Jaizu,
it isn't that easy to add extra code to a app, there is more than just dragging and dropping mate. If it was that easy, we would have alot more in revolution than what we currently have. I am having problems de-compiling apks, and also compiling them in linux, if any one has a solution for this please tell me.
I have had to compile some apps in a VM with windows XP, for now but I would rather not do that lol.
I understand having requests, but you have to remember we can't work all the time on the Rom, due to other things needing to go on.
What issues are you running into (what errors) and is this on MINT?
Sent from my HTC Desire C using xda premium
I have a GUI for my adb interface, however I can't decompile HTC stuff properly on MINT I can't work out why. I can build my ROMs in Linux, which is very fast. I am using XP in a virtual machine but would like a solution for my decompile issues and re compile ones too, I have all the CM source and HTC kernel source which I might try a new kernel out on, but I can't think of how I can get apktool to work. The APIs decompile and compile again on XP with no issues but not on Linux? I have all the dependies installed including all the updates, java is also there three versions one for the kitchen, one for mine craft it runs better, and the other is recommended for android app development. Now I have tried apktool 1.5.2 and that also fails, any ideas guys I can use the VM of XP for a while but it is a hassle really because it us so much easier doing it all in one place. So any suggestions guys? I might work it out, its really annoying though lol
Sent from my HTC Desire C using xda premium
The errors relate to back smali files and the resource files when compiling, decompile works sometimes but not all the time. If I due compile the apk then compile the same thing on mint it will fail no matter what, whereas on XP it never does.

I'll see if I can recreate the problem a little later tonight, and if I can I'll see what we can do to get it working for you.
