Has anyone created a rom kitchen app for use with our phones. It would be great to build your own rom in windows, add apps and take aways appz as needed. Would also be great to be able to download and build from source. Just thinkin out loud.
Most kitchens are compatible with all devices. Search the android development forums. There are many of them. If you want to develop or modify apks then search for tickle my android.

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum. Does anyone have an apk for theme Chooser? I can't seem to find it in market
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk
you can't just install the application unless you run a rom designed to use it. the reason is that the whole framework-res.apk of your phone has to be heavily modified in the way the theme chooser work.
the apps can be found in the general android theme section of xda. there are several versions there i believe

Hello guys and gals. I was wondering what kitchen the developers for this device are using. I have searched around using Google and was not able to find a kitchen that supports our device. I would prefer a Windows kitchen but if that is not possible I am running Linux Mint 12 64bit on my other partition. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You probably wont find one tool for our device....yet. I use several different ones for different things. Depends on what you need to do. Here's a short list of the tools I use off the top of my head.
xUltimate (Windows) For de-odexing
APK Manager
APK Tool
dsixda's Android kitchen (in Linux) (Mainly for splitting boot.img)
7-zip
Notepad++
And of course the Android SDK.
try this

it is not supported but if you are ok with python you can update the tools you need and make it work. It does work out of the box for simple stuff
Thanks everyone. I'll take a look at them all

ok...am going to share some applications that *might* help you in getting life your droid life easier.
please note, these apps are NOT mine. am sharing it because i feel that EVERY black owner deserves to know every tweak to get the best of the p970 ...after all, we are SUCH a nice and integrated community.
i'll simply link some apps and going to attach some.
QTADB
it is the most essential and user friendly app that EVERY droid owner - be it a dev, a cook, a user or a noob, anyone.

APK Manager & APK Multitool
a great utility tool. essential for me.
please note, APK MULTITOOL is the changed name of APK Manager after v.4.9
here is the link to the thread of the dev for latest :

Color Edit
ok...this is a bit off-beat and is for the cooks and devs. this is a graphical hex code chooser for the ones modifying the colors. works very simple (and thus, so well )
(i found this in a thread of xda, but am sorry am not able to locate it right now. so am attaching the program directly.)
please check the attachment for the application
(please inform me the actual thread, if you know, so that i can link it to the devs actual post )
MIUI Theme Editor
this is for modifying or creating a mtz for the MIUI ROM (thanks flatzki )
check the following:
it works for me.

APK Batch Installer
ok...this is again VERY handy for me. am SICK of installing the apk's one by one. u can choose the apk's you want, and this app will batch install it. saves me a LOT of time. (am flashaholic )...check the thread:
(there are many, but am sharing the one i use, and it works for the p970)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23291051
APK Edit
ok....this is a small app. it's neat too. it allows minor changes to the application. allows you to change the name of the app(the one you see @ drawer), lets you edit the icon and allows you to poke the app information (like change the author )

It's a zip file...

thanks for the thread, it's not good for my free time
thanks for the info but i dint get how to use colour editing
can you post the the thread where you got it
Wow! This is great! Thanks a lot bro! Really helpful
there isn't a CM7 Theme creator for Themechooser as MIUI Theme Editor, isn't?
Might as well start this off as many of us would love to customise our roms even further by creating and modding our roms but dont know where and how to start , hopefully this can be a general guide to de-compiling apk's /re-compiling modifying customising colours etc on most devices .
Website i use for changing and finding out HTML colour codes to change the basic colours in roms here great help especially when you cant find the correct colour code and name or need to use when theming .
I also use this website to re-size my PNG's etc to the sizes i need when modding or replacing pictures.
Android APK tool is a great start for most to learn and figure things out, link to site here
Hopefully this thread can be useful for ALL as with so many devices and different ways to theme mod and customise each individual device we can collectively help each other with the simple and basic stuff to get everyone learning and heading in the right direction .
:good:
Apktool is the only one I have been able to get working with 4.2 framework so it is a very helpful tool and dose have support on how to install and use but I wish there was some way to have a brake down of what is what with the .XML files like what to change and where to change backgrounds and text colors

Hi.
I've already started a thread on theming. [Guide/Tools] Simple APK Modding - Basic Android Theming
I still use APK MANAGER, what you have to do is replace some files in the OTHER folder. I'll make it sinple for everyone to use.
I'll upload my version for people to use in link below.
This works for 4.2.1 apks
APK MANAGER 5.0.2

Have you Tickled Your Android lately?
(tinyurl.com/ticklemyandroid)
For example, say cyanogenmod 12 is released and I flash my /system to it, and it runs fine; then I find a rom with dark notifications for say (which this imaginary cyanogenmod rom doesn't have). Is it possible to run both, or to "open" one part of the rom and add it to another?

Not unless you compile your own rom and merge commits. Cm has a theme engine so you can always create your own theme or find themes close to what you're looking for.
