Can anyone give me more information on theme Chooser in cm7?
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Apparently its a tmobile app that's been incorporated into cm7. It comes with 3 different themes to choose from. I'm using the cyanbread theme and basically it changes all the orange gingerbread parts/glows/highlights to the cyan blue color. Looks very sharp. the androidian uses a light green color theme. And the third is the stock orange theme.
It doesn't affect your adw/launcherpro themes/settings.

And how do more themes get added?

@ Op Yeah i was wandering this also, im currently running an unofficial version of cm7 for the htc dream.
And we also have this the chooser app and im sure lots of us are wandering where to get more spiffyness from this app, will follow this thread in the mean time.
Okay i was asked to post my custom theme i made for the liquid v2.6 aosp rom. I spent alot of time editing the frameworks, systemUI's and certain apk's to get this look. It is a collection of themes and png's i have found throughout the web.
This theme will work on the liquid v2.6 rom, not tested on other aosp roms so use at your own risk. IM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BLOWING UP YOUR PHONE!
In this theme you will get:
Themed dialer/contacts.
1% Custom battery mod.
Black calculator.
Custom signal & 4g/3g icons, system icons...etc.
Droid eye bootscreen.
Black camera... also uploading the miui camera if you want.
Transparent pulldown with themed power widget bar.
Themed clock/alarms.
Themed setting menu.
Honeycomb style lockscreen.
Much more...
*Credits go to me and all the themers out there for this!
Just put the zip on your sd card, flash from recovery and wipe cache & dalvik before reboot. To install the miui camera apk just put on your phone and install with root explorer.
Enjoy!

I love what you've done here. How did you make the honeycomb lock screen? I've been looking for one that's flashable or baked into a cm7 theme for ages!

Updated for liquid 2.6.
Love the theme. Thanks!
my next move may be to port this to sense roms too.
U should at least list credit to the themers you are using things from. Even if u didn't ask permission.

Since i did all the work and most of this is pngs found on the web the list would be too long.
cam works great thank you.
Any suggestions? I'm currently using MEIZU and it's pretty awesome, but are there any other themes that work with transparency like this one does?
Sent from my LG-VM670 using xda premium
off the top of my head a few are:
MIUI by same author as MEIZU theme
EasyDay
LunarUi
Orion
Moto
Evoluer
Naked Simplicity
i think you should be able to find them by searching "transparent status bar" in the search form (or something similar to that)
Also your gonna need ZduneX25 pacther to get it transparent.

Does that include transparency in apps like Settings and Root Explorer and others?

No sir, Zdune made it so we could tweak our statusbars to make become transparent for specific themes, like themes posted graphic. But using the patcher can also be used for centering clock and such.
Some of the themes have transparent settings, contacts, dialer, mms, etc..
Wanting to have an app transparent, you'll probly have to do manually. Unless someone has already created an app that you want, that's been transparent.

I'm willing to try anything at this point to learn how to make the apps transparent at this point, it'd be pretty cool to start working on themes

Yes, I know it'll be cool. There's some guides floating around this theme section on how to create themes for theme Chooser and for MIUI Theme Manager.
I would post a linking to those threads, but I'm not currently at my computer. Sorry about that.
But good luck on learning how to create themes, I wouldn't mind testing a few themes from you when you start building some.

That'd be great! I have some good ideas in mind, some concepts that blew my mind and I wanna make something out of it.

Ahh thanks for that small list I never seen some of them.
I was inspired by digitalhigh's icey theme but realized that there are never any good red themes for miui. So I decided to take it upon myself to make that happen.
Out of beta, everything should be working pretty well now
I hope you guys enjoy this bloody goodness as much as I do!
DOWNLOADS on the second post.
If you want any icons added for your apps feel free to send me them and I'll include as many as you guys like. I know I hate inconsistencies in my themes!

If it helps with the icons - you don't even need the apk or package name for most programs. If you visit the play store link for an app on a computer, the URL will have the package name in it, and the main image shown is a .png you can download and use for the icon.
For example..."poop rearing simulator mobile":
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.android.unko&hl=en
Between "id=" and "&hl" is the package name, jp.android.unko.
On the page itself, in the top-left box beneath "Poop Rearing Simulator Mobile" and "Y.soft", is the icon:
Windows clipboard doesn't like transparency, so I just save the icon, then (from chrome) drag-drop the new icon from the download bar into the template I've attached.
Scale it however you want...don't worry about the shape yet. Each one is different, but given the new MIUI style, I try to go for sweet and simple.
Since yours is red, you'd need to modify one of the overlay colors at first, but then you can just copy the layer style to the new icon, ctrl+click layer 0 to select the outline, select the new icon layer, and then hit the "add vector mask" button. Make sure to unlink the mask and layer in the case you want to scale the icon after the fact.
And just in case you (or anybody else reading) aren't sure how to do the last two (I know I avoided masks like the plague for years), refer to the highlighted spots in the attached picture for where to click to make a mask and unlink the two.
Then that's about it. I like to call my layer name whatever the package name is - and I copy/paste it right from the address bar into photoshop. Just easier to keep track of things when exporting.
And...er...sorry to jack your thread. I'd make this it's own tutorial thread, but I don't think there's a super-high demand for MIUI icon tutorials. However, feel free to share whatever you come up with in red - I'll try to do the same. If we're using the same template, then we could actually pool our resources to come up with a massive iconset.
Haha by all means post help when ever you want
I'm pretty good with Photoshop, illustrator is more up my alley but they're pretty similar. Just not much experience with android theming
I think the reason I'm having scaling issues with the .9.PNG files is because I just took a miui v5 theme and unzipped each com.android by adding a .zip extension to them.
Did you use a theme as a base or did you pull straight from a miui v5 ROM into the theme tool? Because the files seem to be in different places from v4 to v5

I did a combination of things. To extract all the v5 resources, I used MIUI Theme editor, then cleaned up the .xml files. I then used MTE to extract all the resources from the latest JB release of v4. Then it was a buttload of hunting and searching to find what elements did match up, and renaming/moving ones that did not.
However, by the looks of it, I'd guess that the scaling issues present in your screenshots are probably because you manually edited a .9 image and did something to the outside edge (definition) that it doesn't like. I had the same glitch in the compose box in MMS.apk. This is why it's essential to use the "hue" attribute when overlaying anything with color...it'll leave all the black borders untouched. Likewise, I'm actually editing a .9 image, I will cut out the inside graphics and make them their own layer before editing anything, just to be sure I don't kill the borders. .9patch is useful, but very very finnicky.
Ah yeah that would make sense, I did use the hue overlay. From what I can see the stuff I extracted doesn't have the guides that the .9's need in the first place. I Amy need to find a new rom or mtz to extract from.
It sucks because I did all the searching too, just haven't found everything haha

Just noticed that I forgot to include the dark status bar from v5 in this release so watch for that. I also added my own little red and black gradient that i think goes in nicely

Looking for some themes to apply to my notification background. I I used to, a long time ago use metamorph and a site called droidpirate to do this but it seems he doesn't have any for Jellybean. I'm wondering how I could modify the theme to work with Jellybean?
Also, I would be interested in any other sources for Notification Backgrounds? What do you use? Post here please
