Flashable Theme Zip Base/Template

Hey guys...I don't know about all of you but I'm eager to start porting MattedBlues to and themeing my Nexus S!
I tried putting together a flashable theme zip but failed. Apparently I didn't have the update scripts setup correctly, but I'm not sure what I was doing wrong. I'm not good with the script stuff so I'm wondering if someone has or can make a flashable theme zip for me? Or if someone could point me in the right direction for properly doing the update scripts then I'm happy to figure it out. Once I have the base with METAINF (and proper udpate scripts), then I can get going on themeing this incredible device.
Thanks guys.
EDIT: SOLVED (I had to delete the 3 cert files in METAINF). Here's a sample zip (Zune Font Pack) that you guys can use a base: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11901383/ZuneFontPack1223.zip
To use this as a base for your theme, you'll want to add a "framework" folder and an "app" folder to the "system" folder and then place the themed/modified apks in their respective locations. Happy themeing!

Thanks for your sharing. May I ask this file applied to any rom?

yes.... for all stock roms

If you put the photos

Alternative Install Method worked for Me
Download the Glasstheme zip, extract, copy out the SystemUI.apk and place it on your SD Card. On your Gtab, copy your original SystemUI.apk (from the System/App folder) and save it on your SD card as a backup in a different directory. Then go back and copy your extracted SystemUI.apk and paste into the original System/App location; You will get force closes, but then just Hit Power and Reboot.
On reboot, your new theme is applied.
This way you can restore your original SystemUI.apk at any time.
Thanks to ssaass for creating it!

Awesome theme mate! does it work with "Tweaked stock Rom 3 Final"? if it doesnt can you make a version that works, please?!

Ok I tried the theme on "Tweaked Stock Rom 3" but it didnt work, the Rom booted normally but with no status Bar anyways I uploaded my SystemUI file extracted from this Rom in hope you can help make this theme compatible with Rom. I can test it out for you if you want before release. Thanks

Didn't work for me but thanks to this post my tab is ok again!
Thanks!

Didn't work for me neither, even though I am sure the /system/app/SystemUI.apk was replaced and the device was rebooted. Thanks anyway for your kind effort.

Is this for ODEX or deOdexed rom?

[GUIDE]Port Any ROM to HTC Tattoo(Maybe any other phone too)

In this Guide I Will teach you How to Port (almost) Any ROM to our HTC Tattoo (might work with every Phone)
Note:
The ROM which you are porting from will be referred to at PORT
The ROM to which you will make changes will be referred to as BASE
1. Delete system/app from the BASE and add the system/app from PORT to the BASE
2. Open system/bin in both and add the extra files from PORT to BASE (TIP : Easy way would be copy all the files from BASE to PORT , delete the ones in BASE and copy the ones in PORT)
3. Open system/etc in both...dont touch the folders in both...add the extra other files from PORT to BASE(PS : again the tip in step two can be used here )
4. Delete system/framework in BASE and add the system/framework from PORT To BASE
5. Open system/lib in both....add the extra .so files from PORT to BASE (PS : Use the tip from step two)
6. Delete system/media from BASE and add from system/media from PORT to BASE
7. Now open system/xbin in both...add the extra files from PORT to BASE (PS : Use the tip from step two)
8. Make Changes to build.prop and rename the .zip of BASE
9. Best of luck
REMEMBER at the end of this the BASE will be the ROM you are making!!!!
Also Remember try to use a PORT which has a screen resolution close to your device so that you dont have to resize.
Also this will not guarantee a fully functional build..though sometimes if you are in luck you may get a fully functional one

Is this how you port your ROM's?

can please elaborate a little more about the build prop and its changes.
It want to try this thing for my own use and I had seen your CM7 modded with i style look and I need to port that on my wildfire.
So I understand everything but the build prop. where should I get that

Hi tanmay.sharma
It depends on the ROM
still , I'll give u examples
1. Porting say MIUI with CM7 as base
Change these lines
ro.build.version.incremental=eng.jenkins.20120615.144321
ro.config.ringtone=Playa.ogg
ro.config.notification_sound=regulus.ogg
ro.config.alarm_alert=Alarm_Beep_03.ogg
ro.modversion=CyanogenMod-7.2.0
TO
ro.build.version.incremental=Release 2.1
ro.config.ringtone=MI.ogg
ro.config.notification_sound=FadeIn.ogg
ro.config.alarm_alert=GoodMorning.ogg
ro.modversion=Click MIUIv3
2. If porting another device rom, like i ported SEMC rom from X10 MINI
You will have to change these lines to the device u porting from like in this case X10 Mini
ro.product.brand=SEMC
ro.product.name=E10i_1254-2716
ro.product.device=E10i
ro.product.manufacturer=Sony Ericsson
and add more extra manufacturer lines!!!
Hope it helps
if more help needed feel free to ask!

Nope ..no shell needed ...gets the zips of both the rooms on your comp ...unpack using your favourite file manager (eg. WinRAR) ...do all the steps and repack..transfer to your phone.. flash it on your phone ..cross your fingers
Remember.. this doesn't always guarantee a perfect port.. there maybe some bugs!!

SystemUI mods

Hi
I had played with Virtuous Ten Studio and i was trying to learn from scrats.
in the insanly cool sense there is an bad translation to danish in systemUI, in english the automatic brightness translated to automatisk lydstyrker, also automatic sound, in decompiled systemUI with VTS and edited the xml file for danish and then compiled the apk file again and pushed it to the device and checked for permission and edited them as they shoud in the file and rebooted.
i also tryed recompiled the apk and copyed it over on sd card, set permission and copy into system/app folder again and then reboots with same result
results was:
NO STATUSBAR i tryied everything but the only way i could fix it was using the orignial apk file again ?
what did i do wrong?

i got the same issue with a deodexed file... tried Vten, apktool but same issue..

but it must be pousible on some how, because the systemUI.apk file in the insanly cool sense 3.6 is not standart, it is modded. but how do we do it ? what are we doing wrong?

not sure.. didn't find any guide on theming / modding Sense esp 3.6.. u have anything on it?

as i understands it, VTI can maby do it, it supports sense 3 and up, i have maby some link at my home laptop but not here at work

there is a start maby
Edit:
after reading the link about modding battery icon it makes sense :
Sense 4.0/3.6 (ICS)
1. Pull /system/app/SystemUI.apk from your phone
2. Rename SystemUI.apk to SystemUI.apk.zip
3. Using WinRAR copy attached "res" folder (in zip) directly into the root of SystemUI.apk.zip
4. Leave the settings and just hit OK.
5. Rename back to SystemUI.apk and push to device
*This method may work for Sense 3.6 ROMs as well. If not, see below.
i had read a place that the systemUI.apk is signed, and only works if it is signed, but when you decompile it and compile it again the sign disapper. therefore as i understands it you may not decompile the original systemUI.apk file, you just push the files that you edited in the file, as it say i point 3. i had not tried it out yet but i do to night and i may think it will work

I always use the last method that you describe here when modding frameworks and SystemUI's, and had no problem so far with any ROM i modded/themed, not too many to be honest, i modified Sense v3.6's Battery only, but that change was in framework-res.apk not in the SystemUi.apk.
Don't know if this can help you in any way, but i believe feedback is always welcomed

Thanks for sharing guys, but i think i reached a point where i m successful in some thing atleast.. i'll play more & will update u how n what i did
