The updated version causes a boot loop on KaosFroyo, probably other ROMs too. Make a backup or undo file !
This page contains instructions to install the port of the speedo battery from the Viva Cyan, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=900589. I take no credit other than packaging it for installation on the Eris, Hero and other medium-res Androids.
The original theme post for Eris by CondemmedSoul is here.
This method of installation only updates the status bar battery icons. See the attached screenshots of it installed with stock Froyo and with my HtcBlackStatusBar. I like it better over a black background myself.
INSTALLATION
1. Download and install ZipThemer from the market. Its free. If you have it installed already, check to be sure you have version 1.5 or later.
2. Download this theme file to your device and leave it unpacked in Zip format. This is not a MetaMorph file and it is not a flashable update. You may put the zip anywhere you wish on your sdcard, but I suggest a subdirectory like /sdcard/ZipThemer or /sdcard/download so you won't see this zip in the list of flashables from recovery.
2a. If you don't already have a black status bar and want one, download any black status bar MetaMorph theme to your device such as HtcBlackStatusBar, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=779488. Also leave this theme file in Zip format. ZipThemer can install multiple themes at once following the instructions below.
3. Open ZipThemer and press the "+Theme" button to load the theme file. A file browser opens, use it to select the speedo-battery2.zip file.
3a. If you are also installing a black status bar theme, click "+Theme" again and select its zip file. In the ZipThemer theme list, long-press on speedo-battery and select "Move Down". You want the speedo-battery theme to be lower in the list compared to the status bar theme in order to ensure that its icons take precedence over any others.
4. Click the "Build It!" button to begin the process of creating a flashable update zip file. Answer "Yes" to creating an undo file if you want an easy way to revert these changes later. It takes about a minute to create the flashable update and undo files.
5. Exit ZipThemer and make any font color changes required by the status bar, if you are installing one. The speedo-battery theme does not require font changes itself.
6. Boot into recovery and flash speedo-battery-update.zip.
7. Reboot. Enjoy your new status bar battery icons. If you're not enjoying them, go back into recovery and flash speedo-battery-undo.zip.
CondemmedSoul's version with 100% levels is here.
Sent you a PM dude. Check your in box

Yes, you're not alone. I'll take a look at the problem when I get a chance.

Cool, other than that it works wonderfully!
It's been fixed now. I just uploaded the flashable zips for tazz v26 and CELB 4.1
in my thread and sent the missing piece to kellinwood so he can add it to the theme zipper file.

The updated ZipThemer theme file is attached here temporarily until CondemmedSoul picks it up for distribution in his thread.
EDIT: Rats, the new version causes a boot loop, just like when I tried the original flashable version. Looks like this install method is a no-go.
First you have to get YOUR Rom's Framework-res.apk
REQUIREMENTS:
MUST BE ROOTED
ROM MANAGER
ClockWorkMod Recovery
There are 4 main ways to get it: (Thanks to avreen)
1.From the zip file of your ROM
Code:
Download the ROM you are using.
Decompress/unzip it using 7zip/winzip .
Open System/Framework/ in the unziped folder
Take the framework-res.apk in system/framework/ folder.
Place it anywhere you want (on the desktop for example).
2.From your phone
Download a file manager (Astro or ES File Explorer or other...) in the Market.
Go to /system/framework/ folder in your phone.
Copy the framework-res.apk in your SDCard.
Place it anywhere you want (on the desktop for example).
3. Use file from the kitchen
Code:
You can select file of your ROM/Theme from drop-down list in file upload section.
We have corrected files for most popular roms/themes.
4. Alternatively you can also use ThemePro to extract it from your Rom.
Before starting editing your framework-res.apk you should make an other copy of it if you want to restore your original framework.
Copy it and rename it as framework-res_ORIGINAL.apk for example.
Then go to http://circle.glx.nl/
Choose the 4th option ("No Battery, theme only")
Click Next
Choose the 2nd option ("Themed icons sets (Froyo roms only)")
Click Next
Click the box(include icons) under EMOTICONS then click preview for you to see the emoticons, after choosing the emoticons you like (i chose B2 all set) leave everything as it is (THIS GUIDE IS FOR CHANGING YOUR EMOTICONS ONLY)
Click Next
The "Do not change notification status bar" option should be preselected here and again LEAVE EVERYTHING AS IT IS.
Click next
The "Do not include bootanimation" option should be preselected here and again LEAVE EVERYTHING AS IT IS.
Click next
The "Do not include windows animation" option should be preselected here and again LEAVE EVERYTHING AS IT IS.
Click next
Now upload YOUR Rom's Framework-res.apk
Click Next
Download your Cooked .zip file mine was named "UOT-YC-02-03-05-27-1.zip"
Then do a BACKUP OF YOU CURRENT ROM using ROM MANAGER
What to do of the UOT-......... ZIP File that you made from the kitchen (again thanks to avreen)
Code:
Reboot into recovery.
choose "install zip from sdcard"
choose "choose zip from sdcard"
locate your file UOT-... .zip in SD
confirm "YES - install UOT ... .zip"
wait for script to finish
reboot phone
Enjoy your new SMILEYS/EMOTICONS

Editing Keyboard themes in Galaxy Themes on Note 5
I have been trying to figure out how to change only the Keyboards from Galaxy themes on my Note 5 for a while and have not found any links on how to accomplish this. It is similar to changing the Icon packs and other settings in the themes only there are separate apk files that are installed specifically for the keyboard during the install, so you can not just edit the script file to change them. I am just posting this in case anyone else was wondering how to do this and hopefully it will help someone. Please let me know if there is an easier way.
First, Make a Backup!
Make sure the default theme is applied!
To get to your themes, Go To [Root]:
Data > Overlays > jsonfiles > UserJSON (Themes)
To use Keyboard from Theme A with Theme B
Data > Overlays > Style
You’ll see a list of your themes there...
Find Theme a Folder and open:
Copy the 3 files that end in “inputmethod.apk” “inputmethod_cn.apk” & “Japan.apk”
After copying in a new folder They should look like:
Theme_A.inputmethod.apk
Theme_A.inputmethod_cn.apk
Theme_A.Japan.apk
Rename the 3 files to the name of the theme that you want to use them with, but leaving the ".inputmethod.apk..." (I’m using Theme B)
When finished they should look something like This:
Theme_B.inputmethod.apk
Theme_B.inputmethod_cn.apk
Theme_B.Japan.apk
Go back to:
Data > Overlays > style
Open Theme B Folder and copy the 3 renamed Keyboard apk files over the 3 matching files in Theme B Folder...
ReBoot!
After restarted, Apply Theme B and the only thing different should be that it will have Theme A’s Keyboard.

Hey, thanks.
IT WORKED
But as soon as I reboot the phone, the keyboard goes back to normal.
ANY SOLUTION?
I haven't had that problem. It could possibly have something to do worth the read write permissions on your system partition. Maybe they are reseting back to read only when you're restart and somehow it is deleting your change. The only thing I would make sure is you have BusyBox installed Superuser is updated to the newest version and that your system drive has read write permissions.
When I flash a new ROM to make sure I have read write permissions on system partition, this is what I do:
Go in to recovery (I use TWRP)
Go to ADVANCED -> TERMINAL EMULATOR
TYPE the command: restorecon -Rv /data/media (press enter)
When it's finished running command I restart. Go to root explorer and make sure system partition Is R/W (rw-r-r 0644) and not read only.
It was something I just kind of came across I'm not 100% familiar with why it would do that the only thing I can tell you is that I'm using TEKHD ROM MM and getting the read write permissions to stick is the most difficult thing I have come across. This is what usually works for me but I would look the permissions. If anyone else has any suggestions on getting the permissions fixed I would like to know also because it also affects multi-window for all apps.
