Okay thanks for the help, I use Android Revolution HD 13.2 as it is very very stable and runs extremely smooth on my phone, the only customization i want to do is change that background, all i was asking for is if there is a mod out there, not to be flamed by someone.

Flamed???.....you don't know the meaning of the word you are using...
And probably you know that all mods can ruin your stability...so there is no answer for your q

You can decompile your prims.apk and change the background of the rom.
But at the nex update this will be changed again.
So, i advice to use Viper if you want a lot of costumization, as another guys said

[Theme] Galaxy S for Fusion!ROM2.2 [OLD]

This theme is for rbrucemtl's 'Fusion!ROM2.2', but currently only 5.1 and lower (although not tested on all of them). So will not work on the latest version. I do not plan on updating it, but the images are there in the theme for someone to take on and port to future versions of this ROM. Sorry to all that have been using it, but I don't have the time these days to keep on top of it.
For you 'FroydVillain' users Alex over at www.villainrom.co.uk has ported this over - http://www.villainrom.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=109&t=2627
All, bar a few of the images have been ported from the Galaxy S ROM. There are a couple of my own minor additions in there also. They have all been resized and 9.png'd so took some time to get them right.
Please note: I do not have that much time to do this sort of thing and I am not planning on updating it further as what I have is enough for me, but If someone else wants to take this and run with it, by all means be my guest
So... attached will give you a rough idea of what is themed. I have also themed the Desk Clock, and included modified notification icons for the Market and Messaging apps. I haven't included the icons you'll see for the apps, as haven't had a chance to update them all so thought better to leave them all out rather than have them half complete. However, I can suggest the 'Gala S' theme for 'ADW Launcher'. That will theme all the apps to the Galaxy S icons.
To achieve the look please follow the below:
Flash the attached theme 'Hero-GalaxyS-0.1.zip' (see below the post) from whatever recovery you are using.
You will then need to change following to white text (or other) in Spare Parts, or the CM Settings:
Clock
Date
Carrier PLMN
Carrier SPN
Notifications ticker
No notification title
Ongoing notification title
Latest notification title
Items title
Items text
Items time
Then as you will see in the screen shots I am using the 'TouchWiz' Launcher. I have not included this but you can obtain it from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735632. All credit to the guys who made that possible. It runs very smooth and is actually pretty damn good.
Please note: Samsung Widgets are not included.
Enjoy! ...and don't blame me if it breaks your phone. You should know how to nandroid by now.

Notes for Hero-GalaxyS
Not working for CM6 Nightly. loop boot.
Hmmm, I guess the framework is not transparent across all 2.2 ROMs. I have updated the thread to specify that this now only be for 'Fusion!ROM2.2' as that is what I am using it on and have not tested it on any other.
looks a greatheme, but boot loops on froyodvillain, hopefully some one can port this to it as i really want this theme.
Awweessoommee I will try on CM Nightly just incase it was the guy ^^above^^ that just had problems with it if not is it alright if i try porting it ?? oh and wow didt know it was possible to make the icons background on hero
EDIT: oh and which launcher do i need to use from the link?? the i9000 or the i5800 ??
EDIT2oohh i just remebered i made some status bar mods for galaxy s but could never try them out because i dont have the phone :L
EDIT3:Confirmed boot loop on nightly build :/

I think it's due to the framework, although both are 2.2 ROMs some of the devs modify certain files in there or they differ from they way it's built. So the theme would have to be made for each ROM. Sucks really.
On another note, it doesn't really work that well on FryodVillain as for some reason they have removed the options to change the text colour of the Clock, Date etc... so you just end up with a black clock in the task bar and some black text in the pull down menu. I'm not sure why they did that. I guess to make it as less like CM as possible :S

Both the i9000 and i5800 work fine on the Hero. Although the i5800 has a better fit on the icons and text in the app drawer. Both have the same features, so it's what you prefer really.
It will prob boot loop on any CM at the mo. I think once a final version comes out it'll be much easier to get a theme ready for any ROM, but in their current states, with constant updates it's difficult to keep up
Still the files are there ready to play with for anyone who may want to.
Sweet Thanks
Any chance of the lock screen ?

Not yet. None of them have been ported and I don't think they'd work until the whole ROM was ported over. I think some people might be looking at it but don't think it's gonna happen

i don't think it matters which nightly you theme because cynageon i dont think changes any of the framework so you wont need to keep updating the theme evry night when theres a new one :L
*Sorry i have had 3 posts of just me*
lol, that's cool.
With regards to the Lockscreen, I am not sure that can work either as it integrates with other Samsung apps, Phone, Messaging etc. However, as of yet I can't even find where it is in the ROM dump . If you get anywhere with it or the widgets let me know
Hope you dont mind, but ive asked on villain rom if anyone can convert it fo froyodvillian.

No not at all
I did originally do a version for FroydVillain, but they have not included the CM options to change the colours of the Clock, Date etc... so with the dark notification bar it looks a bit odd, not so much for the date but the clock looks like a blank space. Maybe someone there can edit the relevant xml file to change it or find a way to add in the CM Settings into the ROM.

Test version of my rom made by me and onkar joshi

Ice edition v1.1 modified of cm7 rc4

Go launcher is the best but it consumes a little space from the top for running apps, apps etc
so i would suggest u to use the adw launcher as it is good and gives a feel of android original launcher

I like your rom but
Font in not beautiful
TouchWiz launcher is very nice but i hope app name in app drawer is bigger
You can add roboto font in your rom
I want Status bar and noification bar look like htc
Please disable on/off toggles . I don't like it . because very laggy and not useful ( look like ICS)
Could you change icon ( dialer, messaging, contacts,etc) look like SGS II

[Q] Is there a way to have recently used apps show in the notification area?

I know that i can click and hold the home button to show recently used/running apps but I would prefer to just drag down the statusbar and see 8 icons of recently used apps.
I have tried different apps from market but most of them show a button that mimics holding down the home button instead of showing icons directly in the notifications area.
Any help with this would be appreciated. Thanks!
Get rooted and install custom rom and then use jkay settings! Done!
Hit thanks if it helped :-D
BOOMED from my BOMBASTIC NOTE :-D
Easier options is to have one if these apps installed

Tried both but like I said in the original post. I'd like it to show icons of recently used apps horizontally. The second one is a full status barcreplacement and I don't want that. Appreciate your help
Use an HTC device? I'm not sure, but check out UOT Kitchen and see if they have that option. Basically you build your own status bar from scratch. I haven't heard any methods of using recently used apps in the Notification bar except for HTC.

UOT Kitchen doesn't seem to have this option.
About HTC, can't we have that implementation as an app? I would love something similar. thank you for the contribution!

The stock messaging app does not have an option to change the background, you can use a 3rd party app like handscent which has many customization options but thats upto you. in regards to the menu again as stock you cant, it would mean modifying the framework and things like that, you may want to check the themes section to see if anyone has created a mod. Try at your own risk

Yes the Sony dialer and messaging software are terribly designed. It almost looks like they just don't care.
I ended up using Handcent for SMS with the Samsung style skin. I also am using exDialer with a dark theme which looks great and has a better usability. There are lots of great skins for either one of these apps.

Can I change One UI Icons system wide? (root)

Hey guys,
so yeah, question is in the title. I really like One UI, but I am not a huge fan of its icons. So I installed Nova Launcher and a nice icon pack.
Problem is that in multitasking view for example the apps still have their original icon. Also when opening the handy sidebar, the original Icons are displayed. And since I want everything to be consistent that kind of kills it for me. And before you suggest it: I hate the icons in the galaxy store.
My S10+ is rooted, so do you guys know of any way to change the One UI Icons system wide to whatever I want? Like with root explorer or something?
Help would be much appreciated!
I would like to do the same...
On my Huawei P10 with EMUI there was a theme creator app where you could add whole icon packs. I really miss this on One UI
