I am going to create the fastest rom. Just tell me what you want in it i'll put in the best one for the job. It would be better if younguys just post the apk or the file u want in it

Are you building the google source from scratch, or modifying an existing ROM? I don't know how you're planning to make a ROM faster than IonR2, but I wish you luck.

if you are deleting what is not needed why would you ask someone elses opinion on what should be put into it. doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose.

Lol...dont u think cyans already doin his best to make his rom the fastest ?....but hey if u think deleting some files will make it faster...b my guest lol

the way i did the JACxROM 1.3 a while back was by grabbing a theme template by cyanogen and looking at what files it contained .. then I grabbed the rom and deleted all the files that werent necessary and voila you have a template

OK!,this is what I was going to try right now. Thanks, for your help

oh wow i completely forgot to mention that ... heres a generic one that should work for all themes ... so in your theme.zip you should have an app folder and a framework folder since those are the folders that the script will copy over

I agree, XDA has changed, but a lot of people are still dedicated...jcase, ivanmmj just to name a few.
I will try this tonight...
My initial guess is it SHOULD work... I have root and am running a custom ROM... so I will update and let you know tonight.
UPDATE: it installs, launches, but when I select "Start checks" it wont execute the system check... I might try a different version and see how that plays out.

thank you very much android!
i appreciate u comming in and making the effort here.

Got it to pass the System check, after updating to ROM 2.1 V.5.5.. works so far...

I just remove Sense for every ROM I install because I like nexuslauncher so much better lol.

As for me. Works great!

Eh, I tried using metamorph on jamezelle's Sense-able 2.0 rom as well. I couldn't get all that I wanted to apply. Going on Stericson's post about metamorph (if you can't tell, this is the first time I'd ever used the program ) I assume there's not enough room in the /system partition. I have no idea how to fix that so I could do an entire theme (noob alert!).
but I did manage to change some images.
I'd love to see some themes for the eris

not a noob alert..we're just graphically inclined LOL

Lol, yeah. I have been giving it a good try, but I just don't understand enough about the process to do it well..
would any of the themes already made for sense ui be able to be ported over to the eris?

Here, this should work. I don't use CM7, so I wasn't able to test it. If you have any problems, just let me know.

You could always use the uot for ALMOST any framework-res.apk

If there are any request then just wait for your turn.

I'm well aware of the uot kitchen, but I prefer to use apk manager. I've had mixed results with uot, and find apk manager to be easy to use. Also, I don't have to "wait for my turn."

Exactly! I didn't know how much the OP knew about apk manager so I didn't post instructions on how to theme the framework-res.apk to have a circle battery. But hey now the OP has two options

Since you had quoted me in your post, I assumed you were directing your reply to me. Perhaps if you had quoted the OP, your intent would have been more clear.

That is true 808bill. Well since his question is answered now I'll be leaving this thread, no need to spam it with off-topic post, I don't want to get into trouble. But nice talking with you though 808billl.

Hey, I had a similar question as the OP. I was wondering where I could find the circle battery mod for the latest aosp 2.3.3 GB ROM (4/29). Do you mind maybe posting a step by step tutorial on how to use APK manager to do this?

808bill posted that in the aospCMod thread, click on his name and all posts, find it Also, pfer10 put up a good tutorial of how to make the mod on the wiki www.romrepo.info/wiki - I've never done it, but I *think* that's where bill learned it?

Thanks! Unfortunately, it looks like I can't use it because I'm on a mac.

Then you ll find a step by step guide made by me. It's very basic, but there are more guides around. Now have fun searching

i am in trouble with updater script.

Upload it somewhere, so anyone can have a look at it. Maybe you just deleted needed files or took a wrong updater-script

You are not supposed to change the updater-script at all! I already updated that in the Build How To. Simply take one from another ROM and it should work fine Kitchens updater-script is not compatible with our device. Maybe dsixda will update it once

i know
it is great for htc phones
but one thing
i like singapour v20 roms
other roms updater scripts work fine with v20f and before...
but v20g and v20h dont. it has bugs.
wifi gives error
fcs with system apps etc.
i think something changed after 20f
and i tried latest v20 roms
they have bugs too
such as tantrums made this fail (i think)
he made 20h flashable zip
but it has same bugs which i have
can you look into this?
it is tantrums's rom

And you made data, cache and dalwik wipe before flashing it? Be sure to make it, otherwise it will NEVER work properly...

Here's a guide to cook a rom:
1-Download any rom you want
2-Put it on your phone
3-Boil some water and throw your phone into it.
P. S. This is the fast way.......
The slow way needs a little bit more effort, like finding the manuals and actually read them
(sorry, just couldn't resist)

yes..

Just taking a previous updater script won't always work. You need to edit it manually. The format is very readable and straight forward.
Look at a nandroid from the ROM your using to look at symlinks,permissions etc.
