Hello people of xda.
I tried to make a theme for my atrix, and wanted to install it through CWM but, it softbricked my device. I actually have near to know idea how to theme it, as I am a noob, and only changed the images and battery xml's, to suit my own taste. If someone could turn this framework into something that will, Actually work. I will be very very grateful. And many thanks will be givin'
Cheers, Atrixx

Hey man i actually was about to jump into the same thing for this since eugene left.
I really don't know much but a few tutorials that i bookmarked and kinda got the basics.
I do know that one of the guys used an old blueberry theme from his old Hero3g Uni ROM(dont know if you were following him since then) but it did change the wood theme to blueberry without touching the icons which i think would be a good "Blank Theme" to start off with.
I am going to look for the file now.
Blinker1683, Most of the G1 instructions will work just fine with the Sapphire aswell, any specific part you need help with to get started?
Yes how can i get the empty theme to edit, do i use the files that are inside the specific ROM that i want to edit, or is there a stock theme i can download that would work .
Thanks for replying and i need the information please
i am ready to get started as soon as possible
templates
I believe you are speaking of getting a template based off a specific rom to edit the pngs and such. You can just use the dream tutorials on creating a theme, with the actual update.zip you used to flash the rom. All of the files necessessary are included in the update.zip. I believe you can also cut out all the crap u dont need, but im not sure the exact/safe process to do so.
blinker, yes you can use files inside a specific rom file or if you are making it for the cyanogenmod roms then i believe in his posts he also includes a template for themers.
Hello there.
I was curious if themes on this forum section can be ported/used to N21 phone which uses standard Android system?
Because i liked many of themes here but cannot figure out how to get them on my N21 phone.
Any responses will be highly appreciated, and sorry if it's irrelevant post here.
Best regards. Gjizaqin
!!Bump!!!
anyone???
nobody?
If you have root then maybe.
Yes my DSTL1 is rooted
Any guide on how'to add these themes on my device?
Thanks in advance
i doubt they'd work ... if you need to hack an android phone .. you should always go with an HTC device... prefereably one that runs stock android ..

I saw the metamorph post here, and i thought... I have the rom of N21 the modified one, can I use metamorph or something else to modify the design of that specific ROM ?
Thanks in advance.
I'm no expert gizaqin
I would go in the metamorph thread and ask those guys some questions ..
I used metamorph and one theme a guy gave me, and it changed my taskbar to black and selection to green which is a good thing, i would like some more tweaking of this particular phone if its possible, if anyone knows anything related.
And one more question, by using metamorph can I break something on my device?
Thanks in advance
ive seen some different post on theme porting but i have yet to read one that i could actually understand fully. if someone could post a start to finish well written how to id really appreciate it.
You can use theme-porter or other "theme-porting" scripts.
Most of them work u just gotta follow instructions and know ur way around adb.
Also the theme porting works best if the theme and the rom to which ur porting is similar (firmware wise)
Ok well is there some one willing to help walk me through it so I can learn or are there any youtube how to's?

Important Update, Please Read:
Here is an idea! I'm gonna write a very easy tutorial for you guys to apply these themes and any other themes you find anywhere else on your devices. This way, you can mod your phone in no time with less hassle and you can start making great themes for everyone.And you don't need to wait for me to do the job .
Let's bring competition to table. I Believe Cyanogen rom is brilliant, however, when it comes to theming, it is way behind Miui fancy UI.
I'm sure many of you guys have different taste, ideas, and can improve the look of the rom.
It is not easy to find all the tutorials in one place and not spending hours in XDA website to learn something. I myself have learned a lot from XDA, other Devs and using try and error method.
These tutorials would be super easy even for someone who had never done theming before. I'm gonna start writing the first part of tutorial today and if I find time I include images too. I will open a new thread and put the link here.
Tutorials will teach u how to theme almost every App you have. There are other guides out there and u r welcome to use theme but makes mine different is that details will be covered. Tutorials should be fast and easy. Im myself get tired ot reading long confusing tutorials and still come up with questions.
First tutorials is ready go to this link
Thank you
Adam
Here is an example of my work, I'm gonna show you how to do something like i did down below.
"For now, I prepared this theme for Nexus one since I have one and if time allows I make more for other devices if you guys vote for it. Should I go for it? You like it? Let me know?
Here is the original thread with the images --> Link
Guys please mention your device name if its not in the list
inspire 4g
xperia x10 here but i believe the nexus one theme is compatible
Also available for a SGS running CM7?
HTC Hero CDMA
Read OP

I'm gonna give u instructions to do it urself and u should be able to theme in less than half hour. I can theme it for you but here is the thing. I dont have your phone and you might end up having so many errors and u finally give up. If u be patient I will finish the first part today and u can theme it in no time

You don't have to mention your device name anymore, I'm almost done with first tutorials so you can apply changes to your phone yourself and not waiting for me to do it

Hi i've been using the x8 for 2 months now running on GingerDX v009.. I've learned many things from this community.. and i wanna learn more..
For starters.. How do i build a ROM? using ROM kitchen? if yes which one is compatible with our X8? Will i need extensive knowledge in linux or in programming?
With the ROM kitchen you don't actually build a ROM, you just give it some features (I've tried it). If you know anything about coding and stuff like that, I've been told that the android developers site is a good start. I'm a beginner myself. So far I've made only an icon pack apk LOL

I want to start too. Can you or any other give me an "How to start guide for NOOBS" for me? I'm really noob in this xD
Before you start developing, you should know how Android works. As I said before, you will find everything you need in the Android Developers site. And..c'mon! You can't start making ROMs when you haven't even made a simple app yet!
I want to start developing apps, and after that developing some modifications to existing apps and system files. When i know how to do that i can simply make a rom because i know how to compile roms on kitchen

Take a look at this.
I don't know if this is good, because I didn't read it all... but I think it may help you

(this link is in portuguese, so don't bother going there if you don't understand)
Online tutorials might help you... There are a lot of them out there... Choose the one which you feel is better... I'm also on the same boat as you..
I personally prefer "thenewbiston" channel.. There you can find tutorials for android application development as well as java(which is very important for app development)..
Then you can move onto cooking roms...
All the best....
