Theme app - LG Revolution

I've wondered about this for a long time now and with all these themes being released I think it is even more needed. I'm no good at coding but I know a few people who took android app classes in my college. I was thinking about trying my hand at it with the aid of their book and hopefully some people on here and my friends from school. Who would want a theme chooser app. Name will probably be something along the lines of Flash Themes. let me know what you guys think.
Also, I have no idea how to go about doing any of this but I feel like a bum using everything that everyone has been making for this phone without giving something back.

That would be dope! Yeah I wish I could contribute more. All I've done was post the vs910zv6 tot and some testing. Not that helpful.... Hopefully we have more people like you willing to contribute

I know what you mean man, swype theming was about the extent of my knowledge ( and I learned that on the fly as well).
At any rate, a theme app would be awesome!
Join the revolt!

Well I was talking to the cubed in the irc tonight about my thoughts. He thought it was an awesome idea. But then he realized that 2.2.2 doesn't support on the fly theme switching. So we have to wait for 2.3 or cm7. Cm7 does cone with it's own theme picking app but I still plan to make this one do we can have all the themes that someone might make.

Haro might not be much help but I know if you download one of droidth3ory roms for the thunderbolt you could pull his theme chooser out of it and take a look at his coding on it. Of course that is based on 2.3 but it might help you study up on some stuff.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm going to have to wait for 2.3 to come out for this to work anyways.

I found someone the other day who knows what they are doing with Android apps to help me out with this. I have almost everything installed on my Windows desktop and plan to start on it sometime next week. If anyone who has made a theme could give me the Okay to put their theme into this it would be awesome since without that I don't have it app it would be much appreciated.
ETA: When it's ready for release.

If I can get this newer theme going at 100% then you can definitely throw it in with your app! Thanks for "taking the bull by the horns" on this project man. Nice to see someone step up and take a project head on.
I was like this when I made my very first ROM for the HTC Eris. Other ROMs were out but I didn't feel I was getting the speed and functionality that my phone could have. So I sat down one night and started reading, messing around with things and downloading programs on my laptop. 1 week later I had my first ever ROM! Everyone that installed it, loved it. Had to pull the first version because Wifi would connect, then disconnect, then reconnect (you get the picture lol).
Anyway, long story short. Sometimes if you want something done, you have to do it yourself. Glad you're doing this Haro and I can't wait to see how it turns out!

just wondering if u got a chance to look at the theme ?
My best suggestion would be to ask the author of the program you linked to, if he could lend you a hand in getting it to work for you.
From what i can see, thats for a nexus one, which does not have the HTCIME keyboard that they ported from a sense rom (What we use), so he will be most familiar with what was changed, and who knows, it may just work, or not take too much tooling, to get his skinning program to works for our phone as well.
Hope that helps some in your quest for skinning the keyboard.

[Q] Suggestions for next theme?

Ok guys I want your input on this.
Tomorrow I'm going to finish up the Iconic theme and then there will be pretty much no reason for updates on it as of yet. Which means I'm going to start on a new theme, so here's my question.
If you guys could have any theme on your phone, that is not currently supported, which one would it be?
The first theme to get mentioned 5 times (not by the same person, i'm watching you k0g and beemer hahaha j/k) will be the next theme available for the LG Revo. When you figure out what theme you want, make sure you link a post to it so I can ask the creator if I can port it to our phones.
Now for the other good news. Once a theme gets established, I will port it to Home-Less AND Revolt. So get those wheels turning and figure out what is the ultimate theme that you want.
Also keep in mind, if the theme is already on a 4G device, that would be a tremendous help!

I'm looking for a burnt orange minimal theme. I like slick and clean. Iconic fits that bill. But if anyone sees a burnt orange and dark gray...
Sent from the edge of sanity from my Revolting LG Revolution 4G.
Well since we have 3 votes for the Synergy Blues theme already, I went ahead and sent CleveRuse a PM asking if I can port it over. Chances are that he will say yes because in his OP he states that most of his stuff was taken from several different themes anyway.
thermal_tim
I'll start looking for a theme like that as well, I kind of already have one in mind, let me know what you think of porting this over:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1126441
There's not much I could find in the "free" themes. Really don't want to pay for one since I'm not making any money off of it myself lol.
I think it looks pretty slick though!
Actually, I'm really liking this theme! What do you guys think of porting over this one??? It comes with a choice of either a black or a transparent statusbar.
I like dark green, but hasn't found a good one yet. Might have to break down and finally build a Linux kitchen box to kook my own

Well I got a PM back that says it's ok for me to port it over. So in about an hour I'm going to be going home to get dinner and grab my laptop then will be starting on this tonight. Just might have it done by morning too. Stay tuned kids!
Thanks for all the work my man. I'd be down for anything minimalist and black. I'll try to look around tomorrow to see if I can find interesting.

I seem to have hit a snag with both themes. It seems as if the guy with the blue theme wants every single bit of credit if I port this theme over, I'll be pretty much redoing every single icon he has and therefore will not give him full credit.
The orange theme that I posted, every single link is down and when I did get the download page to come up, it's saying that the entire theme is only 1.17mb.
Gonna have to start looking again.

Themes

Hey guys. I used to make themes for the Droid X went to WP7 and recently got the Revo and plan on making some for this phone. They are probably going to be basic no XML edits just image swaps and what not but they usually were very clean and un cluttered. Keep an eye out. the first one will be a ICS theme and hopefully afterwards I'm going to try and make the Nex Theme that a dev made along time ago.

Welcome aboard! We got some pretty good themes and themers here who love to work with and help each other. Glad to have another themer on the Revo. Since you've already made themes before, I know I don't have to tell you but I'll say it anyway. Just make sure if you're porting a theme or anything like that, that you give the original themer proper credit in your post. Can't wait to see what you can bring to the table!

If you had something else in mind, go for it or if you'd like to add to it, that would be awesome too. I don't have many apks themed yet other than contacts and revo_65 did the mms.apk located here ICS Themed MMS.apk (which I plan on adding to the ICS theme on the next update)
Other than that, I'm not sure. I think someone requested a pink theme, not sure if anything was done with that (could have just been a joke, not sure )
oh yeah there is the ICS one lol....my bad lol.

Revo-Themes *Official Website*

Hey everyone!
So I started my own website (a free one of course) and just wanted to let everyone know about it here. I'll still post all my themes here, but all links will be posted on the site. I've added some custom stuff to the site but it's still under construction. If you go check it out, please comment here and let me know your ideas and stuff like that. Some of the features of the website:
Little introduction on the home page
Sidebar with Revo and Esteem themes listed with their current version (needs changed)
Recent photo uploads
Ability to subscribe to the site
Photo gallery separated by theme
News section containing when a theme was updated (there will also be actual news included in this section as well)
Downloads section, separated by device for all my themes
Contact section where you can drop me an email if you have something on your mind.
One main feature I'm going to add very soon will be a changelog section that will be separated by device.
Since there will never be a shortage of themes to be made, I'm actually starting to think about making this into an actual small company. So if some of the other themers would like to talk about it, send me an email or PM or something so we can talk it out. Regardless of me getting a new phone in a couple weeks, I will still own this Revo and will continue to make new themes for it until no one else has it lol.
By the way, very soon there will be an official Revo-Themes twitter, facebook and Google+ accounts.
Check out the website here:

Nice phone little less heavier than the Revo, bigger battery but the standby time for the Nexus is 150 hours and the Revo's is 335 hours but the Usage time is 720 mins for the Nexus and 435 mins for the Revo not sure how that worked out. But it's gonna be bad when you run out of memory (that is if you do) on the Nexus since of it only having 32gb of Internal and no Sd card
