Info:
SystemForce is based on the artwork by Homeryulo. I love the iconset and wallpapers so I had originally created this to customize my own G1. I started adding more and more and this is the latest instance of my work. This is a HIGHLY customized theme which was in the Theme competition here at XDA once upon a time. Since then it has gone through endless revisions and updated to SystemForce2 and now SystemForce3 with over 1000+ images edited. There are ports to other rom's linked in the second post if you want to risk it.
Download - Only flash version compatible for your rom.
(Flash the default CM Rom theme template FIRST to get a fresh install if you are coming from a different theme, flashing on top of other themes could cause issues unrelated to my theme)

Frequently Asked Questions
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How do I read the funky new battery meter?
-Green = Good
-Light Green = Meh
-Yellow = Where's my charger?
-Orange = GET OUTA MY WAY I NEED TO CHARGE THIS
-Red = End of the world as we know it.
or like so:
How do I install the extra icons?
-Simply unzip the extras zip file somewhere on your sdcard, use an app such as 'bettercut' to set your icons manually. I will be changing some of the system icons to ones I like, so you can use this to change it as well.
How do I use the extra wallpapers?
-I do include the default main wallpaper in the wallpapers gallery but also offer 3 extras in the extra .zip file I included above. To use this put them in /wallpapers/ folder of your sdcard and use an app like 'wallpaper set & save' to set as wallpaper. Or just use android gallery and install from anywhere on your sdcard.
What if I want this theme for other roms?
-Some great people in this thread have helped porting over some of the theme for other roms: (older versions-only try at your own risk!!)
--JACxROM-1.3r3: SystemForce3.0.2
--JACxROM-1.3r3: SystemForce3.0.2.1
--JACxROM-1.4r3: SystemForce3.0.4.6
--JACxROM-1.5r4: SystemForce3(v1.0)
SystemForce3.0.4 for:
--JFv1.5CRB43-US.zip
--TheOfficialCRC1-US..zip
--TheOfficialCRC37-EU.zip
--TheOfficialCRC1-ADP.zip
What if I want this theme for Cyanogen's Experimental roms?
Since the whole google/cyanogen fiasco I realized this may be the last experimental rom for a while so I went ahead and ported the theme for it.
-SystemForce3-(v1.0e) (runs on CM 4.0.4 - uploaded September 26, 2009)
I don't like the GOLD color scheme, do you have it in other colors?
-Simple answer: No. Long answer: The original artwork is mostly in the gold color you see most of the images based on. If someone wants to go through all the images and change them to different colors, by all means feel free to do so and I will link them here. Flash these only at your own risk, I can't take responsibility for things others have made
Current available colors:
SystemForce3.0.4.4 in BLUE: Download from snyper2k2
-Works in CM 4.0.4
-Haven't personally tested it, just signed and uploaded.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Hell F-ing yeah!
Thank you!!
Awesome! It looks great!
i was wondering if any has tried this???
Just not for me, but I've always thought your Theme was BADASS! It's still looking more professional than 90% of the themes that our out.

I tested this on CM 4.0.1 extensively. Its perfectly safe if you have the proper rom. After the initial install, it may stay on G1 screen for a minute or two, just give it time and it should get to the animated boot screen after that.

Thanks! Going to continue making newer themes too hopefully once this thing is out of the way. I'm itching to make more now that I got the hang of themes again. No offense to anyone out there, but you can only have so many hero based themes. Rosie was pretty, but now she's just a common hooker it seems :[

Prash
Awsume
WOW keep up the good work your graphix are off the wall....
Finished flashing it
AWESOME!!!!!
Here's a themed adv launcher for who wants it
Please theme Music widget for those of us who dont use the HTC Music app
Suggestion: on the lock screen, maybe have the font a little darker to make a bigger contrast?
Can't wait for future versions seriously this is kick ass
EDIT: oh yeah also can you pleaseee theme calendar widget as well (not gunna mention settings widget since you already put it on your to-do list )

Next on the list of to do's are of course the widgets. Since those are .9.png files and I've been off my main computer for a while, I'll have to work on them when I can. I don't use htc music either, so everything themed will probably be the stock stuff.
Thanks for providing the advance launcher for others as well, I stopped using it when Cyan dropped it. I had cut down to 3 screens anyway and I didn't use folders.
Great looking theme. Runs smooth and haven't notice any slowdowns that I have noticed with some other themes.
I flashed the theme no problem but I cant flash the extra pack. any suggestions?
kinda of a noob question...but can some1 tell me how to install the extras on ma fone?
Excellent job....thanks
Excellent theme. You and MOONSPOON are changing the game (at least when gchrome is released).
It's also the first theme I flashed on 4.0.1 with no force closes (probably just my luck).
I think any personal request were previously addressed, so I'll just say can more of the icons be built in?
As far as the install question, you need WinRAR to open the file to changes the drawables and such, then you can replace the icons with the ones in the extras folder.
Going to try Advanced Launcher now. Thank you for posting that, I was just about to theme it as I read this.

There should be not a single force close issues as long as you're loading it on proper CM Rom. Believe me I made sure I tested it way too many times before I release any of my themes.
As far as other icons: yes more of them will be built in as they were in the rc33 version of this theme.
To use the extras: Do not flash it as an update.zip, its simply a zip file with an icons folder and a wallpapers folder.
The icons you can use if you have bettercut/anycut to manually change your system icons to match.
The wallpapers you can drop them in your sdcard and use it with the theme as any wallpaper. I suggest you download 'wallpaper set & save' from market, put them in /wallpapers/ folder and use the app to set it to get a non pixelated wallpaper.
I've added the frequent questions to post #2, people who have trouble with the extras zip file, check that.
I'm sorry I am pretty busy and not able to participate in this thread much any more. Unfortunately I've switch over to Android Ice Cream Sandwich I will no longer be using Go Launcher Ex unless they decide to update their launcher to be up to par with Apex Launcher and other ICS Launchers. I want the in-app drawer widgets and other features ICS has to offer so hopefully they update GO Launcher to offer these features so I can continue to use it. Anyways I'll try to add as many themes to this post as I can if you PM them to me but because I haven't really done anything with themes for over 6 months I don't really remember a lot of the details. This thread is here for reference hopefully it helps you guys out since I will be unable to do so.
This guy hasn't been updated for a while unfortunately so it may or may not be relevant any more if you want the latest version of ThemesFactory you will have to search the GO Launcher New Blog for it. Anyways Thanks for all your support and everything you guys do you're awesome!

Guide to using ThemesFactory:
The download and other information about ThemesFactory can be found here HERE
I haven't been using ThemesFactory for that long I'm not very artistic I just use materials I can find online and also simple Paint and Photoshop methods. ThemesFactory allows you to create a Theme based off an already existing template by replacing the different parts within it. Setting up ThemesFactory is a little tricky and also as I've seen with certain things such as the tabs in my theme it seems to have bugs. It's really all trial and error I guess unless you have a better knowledge of how the themes are actually read by GO Launcher Ex.
First thing is first download and install the Java JDK from HERE. After you install it browse to "C:\Program Files\Java\" inside it there should be a folder labeled jdk1.6.0_26 or whatever the latest Java 6 JDK version is. Now you know the path to your Java folder you need to setup your Environmental Variables.
Environmental Values:
First off you must go to the Environmental Variable Settings in Windows. (I don't know how you would use ThemesFactory in linux sorry)
1.From the desktop, right-click My Computer and click Properties.
2.In the System Properties window, click on the Advanced tab.
3.In the Advanced section, click the Environment Variables button.
4.Finally, in the Environment Variables window (as shown below), highlight the Path variable in the Systems Variable section and click the Edit button. Add or modify the path lines with the paths you wish the computer to access. Each different directory is separated with a semicolon as shown below.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
SOURCE
Under "System Variables" click New then type in JAVA_HOME as the Variable name and Variable Value C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_26 (or your folder location) After this is complete add ;%JAVA_HOME%\bin; to your PATH.
Make another Variable Named classpath Variable ;%JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\rt.jar;%JAVA_HOME%\lib\dt.jar;%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar;
How to Export Video found here
Uploading to the Market:
Well first off I want to say be careful what is in your themes even your free ones I got my Facebook Theme suspended it apparently violated terms even though it was free lol. Anyways just make sure everything in your themes is usable and not copyrighted or trade marked.
Now you must go thru all the files in the theme using either an IDE or Notepad++ and change the package name refrences from the random name to the name of your theme in lower case. Make sure the package name is correct because once you upload your Theme to the market you can't change it unless you upload it as a new app instead of a update. You may also want to change the version code and version number in AndroidManifest.xml that way it doesn't said version code 6 and version number 1.5 when it's only 1.0 or what ever.
After this is done export it and make sure everything is in working order.
Now you must zipalign using the zipalign tool from the Android SDK. Open a cmd window. I usually right click and hold shift and open the cmd window in the folder zipalign is in I just moved it to my ThemeStudio folder because that was easiest. Then you just run the following command.
zipalign -f -v 4 ThemeName.apk ThemeName1.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
More info here
If it worked it will create a new file ThemeName1.apk or what ever you tell it to name it and you can upload that to the market.

How to Open Theme Factory as Admin if you have problems:
After this is setup open a command prompt as an administrator and cd to the directory where ThemesFactory is located then type "themesfactory_beta2.jnlp" or the name of the current .jnlp file that came with your ThemesFactory. Now create a new theme with ThemesFactory it should work correctly!
I created this .bat script to open the ThemesFactory with out doing cmd everytime. I won't post a .bat file so just create a .txt file copy/paste this in it and save then rename it to Start ThemesFactory.bat (of course you have to make sure that you have file extensions enabled to do this.) If you need to you can change the directory it CDs to to where ever your jnlp file is. Run as an Administrator for it to work properly. The reason I suggest to run it as Admin is because when I tried to edit certain elements while not running as Admin it wouldn't let me if you have that problem make the .bat file.

cd C:\gothemesfactory_beta

How did you get the Go Launcher Theme Factory to export your theme? I designed one recently only to discover the fact that the export theme function was broken with the latest update to the Factory.
I'll post a guide of how to use the theme studio when I get home.

Great themes! Can't wait for the Zelda theme to be ready. Good work and thanks.

You have to let us know when the Zelda is ready but it looks awesome.
Sweet. I know how to use it, I just can't get the Factory to export my theme.

I hope this is the right place to post this anyways I made a couple themes using theme studio and a little Paint/Photoshop. The Facebook one is mostly original content based of the website except the logo and some of the Icons. The Zelda one is mostly compiled from other materials already made I'm not much of a Artist anyways I thought you might like these two I made I'm probably going to make some more anyways post any GO Launcher themes you have made!

I definitely want to get on that boat. I love making themes, i just need to figure out how to get this setup working on linux.
Yeah I'm not sure how you would do that technically the program is written and java so it might work idk. Technically you don't have to use theme studio you just have to have a theme edit and replace the apks and repackage and sign the file. The video below apparently shows how to do it with out the theme studio.

Also...... if you are getting FC's with new SuperUser App then open the app and go to settings and change the top option to "Always Allow" instead of "Prompt".... this will fix the issue.... This is an issue with Superuser itself NOT because of our mod to it.....
==================================================
PLEASE DO NOT RE-POST DOWNLOAD LINKS OR USE ANY OF THE ICONS IN THIS PROJECT WITHOUT EXPLICIT CONSENT FROM BOTH MYSELF AND AMRESH.........
YOU MAY LINK BACK TO THIS THREAD IF YOU WISH....
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT BECAUSE SOME ICONS IN THIS THEME DO NOT BELONG TO US...WE JUST HAVE PERMISSION TO USE THEM!!!

For those that might not know, starting 2014 FREE MIUI themes can't be applied anymore. MTZ files shared in communities like this will not work, however with the help of a couple of apps developed here in XDA it is still possible to ignore the policy.
Before posting this small guide I would like to know if it goes against the rules; I'm going to try to contact a mod before continuing. It's something I discovered by mere chance a couple of days ago and I want to share. MIUI is a great ROM, I have been using it for more than a month but without being able to customize it it really doesn't excel in any way.
--- Edit ---
I have been given the thumbs up by a mod so I'm going to post the guide.

First of all, these are my specs:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Phone: XT910
Android Version: 4.2.2 JDQ39E
MIUI Version: 4.1.3 (Ported)
Kernel Version: 3.0.8-g67d26a7
Also, I'm not signed in my Xiaomi account. I do not know if this is relevant or not.
1. Install Xposed Framework (Thread Link), (Download Link). I'm currently running app version 2.4.1
2. Install WSM Tools (Thread Link), DO NOT LET IT INSTALL THE FRAMEWORK; we already have it. (Note: Installing the framework from within WSM Tools caused a bootloop for me). I used app version 2.1.5
3. Use WSM Tools only to download the module named Mi-Tools; download module version 1.8 (THIS IS IMPORTANT).
Be aware that you will need to reboot your phone a couple of times during the installation of the apps. Pay attention when you are required to do so. After this you should be able to import MTZ files from the SD card and no authorization will be required to apply themes.
These are the steps that worked for me, now I'm able to customize my ROM again.
New MIUI Theme Policy
http://en.miui.com/thread-11723-1-1.html
nahh.. im sure it is against the rule.
Some things you might want to know
1. Sharing your themes: Can I share my themes on the forums or websites in the future?
Designers are free to continue to share their themes on the forums or websites they choose as long as they upload their designs to designer.xiaomi.com. For the the themes you’ve already shared on the forum, please upload them to designer.xiaomi.com as well. After the review of MIUI Themes Team, your themes will be available in MIUI Themes Store. We are initializing this procedure to protect designer’s design and copyright issues.
2. How about tweaking or slightly modifying themes for personal use?
Tweaking or slight modifications to existing themes for personal use (e.g. changing icons etc.) are also allowed as long as you register a designer account at designer.xiaomi.com. You can act as a designer and tweak as you please without uploading to the public.
What if you want to share your theme with your family and friends? No worries, each designer can have 10 beta team members, which means a designer can share his theme with 10 people without uploading it to MIUI Themes Store. The first 10 people who import the designer’s theme get the permission to use this theme for free. Please note that the phone of beta team members must be connected to WiFi whiling importing the theme.
However, if you want to share it to more users, designers will then need to upload the theme to the public. This is done so again to protect designer’s copyright. It is to ensure that the copyrights of existing themes are not abused. For example, if the tweaked theme was unintentionally released to the public (I pass it to a friend because he liked the theme and he pass its on etc), it would discredit the original designer.
3. Previewing themes: How can I preview my theme?
Designers are allowed to preview their themes without uploading and posting it publicly. To preview, designers must setup an account in designer.xiaomi.com and then can preview their themes privately.
4. MIUI Theme Editor
MIUI Theme Editor acts as an alternative tool to what other tools designers are using. Theme Editor is not mandatory. It is a tool to further enhance the designer as it simplifies steps and procedures and feed themes to your phone in a much simpler method.

Designers can still use the tools they currently are using just that when you share the completed them with others, it will need to be uploaded to designer.xiaomi.com first.
Thanks again for your understanding and please bear with as we improve step-by-step towards a more international theme app!

I'm aware of the policy, I have read it. The problem with the policy is that FREE themes, the ones from the official page (http://en.miui.com/thread-8880-1-1.html) cannot be applied anymore. Editing themes is worthless now because to get a designer account, you need to submit:
* ID Card number.
* ID Photo.
* Permanent address.
* Bank statement.
Those are very sensitive information submitted to the MIUI staff, and you need to get reviewed and approved.
Great contribution to the community.
I've been using since my first Miui Galaxy S and is generally the rom that I like.
Recently without the possibility to enjoy the themes he had lost all the charm and now thanks to this we can again enjoy Miui as it deserves.
Thank you very much.

no, its not as hard as you think. I've registered to the designer.xiaomi.com, and those steps is not as complicated as you think.
The ID card photo is you can put any photo, as long as it is your face, any images would be fine. But what you meant by the ID number? the ID number is the MIUI Forum ID. You can get it when you joined the forum, and it is for free.
There is a reason why they created that policy, it is for avoid duplication, kang, stolen, misuse, for MIUI themes.

you can still enjoy the theme as many and as long as you like. Same as before. But the developer of the theme need to upload his/her work to the market, thats all. And it is very easy. And we or even me, as the designer/developer, it will be our responsibility to follow the rule. It for the user's own good. As the policy stated, only the theme that is in build or testing progress which is no need to upload to the market, but only will be authorized for 10 people/friends. If they want more, then he/her needed to opload to the market.
Sharing an alternative way to apply a .mtz file does not go against any policy

Great contribution to the community.
I've been using since my first Miui Galaxy S and is generally the rom that I like.
Recently without the possibility to enjoy the themes he had lost all the charm and now thanks to this we can again enjoy Miui as it deserves.
Thank you very much.

It would be nice if you test it to confirm it works in different devices.
Personally I think this a great contribution to the community and I couldn't care less what MIUI says.
Plus one to op defenetly not against rules and I no as soon as miui g2 is available I will use this

I wonder why I got bootloop when I tried to install the framework from WSM.
Running MIUI on my Kindle Fire (Gen 1 - Otter), when I install either Xposed Framework or WFS Tools Framework, both give me bootloops, unfortunately. I even tried them independent of one another with the same result.
Device: 1st Gen Kindle Fire (Otter)
MIUI: miui_otter_3.12.27_4.2.2.zip

Not really, I was running MIUI V5 4.1.17 at the time. Before updating to that version I was running 4.1.3 with JBX-Kernel Hybrid, however I did a dirty flash.
I have an Hongmi Red Rice WCDMA with MIUI v5 JHBCNAL5.0, I wanted to install 'MIUIv5_MiroEx_v2.4.0_MiuiV5' icons and everything went ok!
Thanks a lot!

Thank You! :good:
Work my Samsung Note 2
MIUI Official Team
v. 4.1.24 （V5)
Thank you so very much for this treasure!
The new theming policy is the worst decision ever made!
Quick question.. Does this work if you are just using the MI Launcher?

Latest 1.9.2 Mi-Tools can be used as well to bypass the theme authorization. Which has by the way new notification badges.
The op seems to force using version 1.8.
It works even if you have the xiaomi account active. I wouldn't mind registering at the theme designer site, yet the site won't open.. So :angel: I break their policy!
thanks thanks thanks!!!
thanks so much you genius!!!should i update this coming friday or no?
