It's not to tough, pm me and i'll try and help out how i can.
I don't have a incredible yet but I'm sure you have to pull framework and system/app/ and edit those apks, then push them back to the phone. Someone correct if I'm wrong here.

Not to sound noobish, How do you edit them. Do you need rom kitchens or special programs? I cant even view pictures on my computer because windows sucks. Im more experienced with roms than themes.

You can use GIMP to edit images and its free. You need to pull a few files.
framework-res.apk
com.htc.resources.apk
rosie.apk
To extract them, rename them to .zip files, then once you are done editing, rezip the apk and rename to a .apk and push to proper location in recovery.
These three basically control most of images, icons, check boxes, buttons, etc that you will see differences with. You can edit other apks too to make them more custom to your phone. The only thing that stinks is some apps like facebook and others that get updated normally, you would have to revert back to original and then update. For now you have to push the files you edit back to your phone until nand is fully unlocked. Soon you should be able to use metamorph to apply themes. Just make sure you keep a stock copy of the APKs you edit in case you need to restore an icon or restore the apk completely.
Also you might notice that something you edit in one of the APKs doesn't apply, it could be because its in 2 locations and you need to edit or replace it in another APK. Like the signal bars for example, these are in the framework-res.apk and com.htc.resources.apk, so you need to replace the files for the signal bars in the com.htc.resources.apk file.
Here is a few examples of some light theming I did with mine.

Very cool themes. Where can i find gimp? Also, do you need to re sign the apks, and if do how? Im not too good when it comes to signing.
Anyway, thanks for the info, and also, thanks for finding the exploit to unlock mamd

You don't have to resign them, just rezip the files to make it an apk again, if your file you make has the extension .zip, just change to .apk
Make sure you make a nandroid backup before you start theming. Sometimes changing pngs can cause things to look weird. so you can revert back. Also you will notice there are files called .9.png files, these are different. If you edit these sometimes you can have issues which make an icon look incorrect sized or stretched out even. Look up tutorials on editing .9.pngs I think if you use GIMP it recognizes .9.png files and you might not have to do any extra work, but I haven't really messed with these to much.
You can find gimp with google search, its a program like photoshop, and the price is FREE.

Any stock apps you don't have to resign. 3rd party apps would have to be resigned I believe. TNS gave some pretty good info on how to theme. There is a breakdown somewhere on the net that gives you step by step directions. It might be the one posted above,i didn't look so I'm not sure. I use photoshop to build .9.pngs instead of using the .9 patch tool. Also the easiest way to make your theme us with mm or as a vendor overlay. A vendor might be too hard for you unless you know how to build from source. If you have any questions feel free to pm me.

Hello,
I just wanted to announce a little app I wrote in response to a request over here.
In a nutshell it just goes through your device, checks against a list of software in a config file, and lets you check off the ones you'd like to uninstall. Then it removes those apps from your file system and the registry.
This is my first windows mobile app. It's fairly simple, but if anyone finds any bugs, please let me know.
Right now there is only a config file for the HTC Tilt 2. If anyone would like to write a config file for other devices (Rhodium or not), I've included documentation on how to do so, and I'd be happy to help.
You can grab the Tilt 2 version of Crud Scraper here.

So essentially this is an uninstaller that gets rid of everything left by an app?

Can you post the cab right here? I have an aggressive firewall that I don't control that prohibits your linked site as 'Free Pages' ..sheesh!
That sounds good and i will test it on the Rhodium 100 aka Touch Pro 2. Will report later.
Love the icon
I ran it after having removed 90% of what it scrapes, and it worked like a charm. Thanks, great utility!

That's right. It can either uninstall an app, or finish removing what's left of an app that was not properly uninstalled.

I didn't even realize the files could be hosted here as a normal user. I've just edited the main post of this thread to include the file you'll need.
Bear in mind that it's not a cab though. It's a zip file containing an exe and a config file for the Tilt 2. Just save those to the same folder on your device, run the exe, and the rest is self explanatory.

I have a CDMA phone (Verizon Rhodium 500)and would love to give it a shot.
Tried it on my Tilt2 unfortunately, I didn't have the option to remove the programs I installed the app to remove. Looks like it needs somemore development to be able to select everything on the phone. I can't comment on how good it works because I didn't remove anything. I do appreciate the effort though.

What app(s) specifically are you referring to?
The only apps it removes are the ones defined on the wiki entry defining the crapware here.
If I know what apps you'd like removed, then I can add those apps to the XML file that defines the list of apps to check for.

HELP!!!
Ok, I'm at my wits end. I've downloaded the zip, extracted the files & copied them to the phone (was drag & drop ok?). I can't get the program to launch. I just get windows offering to run out to the web to find a fix.
How do you execute it? I don't see it listed on the phone itself so I thought I should do it via the laptop on the .exe that was on the phone.
Does it matter what OS is on my laptop?
AWESOME!
Just want to say that pyromosh is awesome. Walked me thought what I needed to do.
For those that don't have Framework 3.5 - you need to install that on your PC then dig down in that folder to get the 3.5 cab file to move to your phone and install.
After that, it works like a charm.
On happy Texan gal here.
great program, pyromash....
i was directed to this thread because I'm trying to delete the actual .exe files from the Windows folder (plus some other stuff like the bloat mp3's)... i tried with File Explorer & Total Commander... these delete attempts all failed...
is there a way to do this??
XDA,
Just wanted to know how can I, we add themes to our Android builds. For example, this UltraLinx Desire Theme Thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=736987
I currently have Metamorph, but nothing is working for me. Just wanted to know if anyone is able to add custom themes and how.

Wrong. Metamorph works for me, but check for each theme their compatibility.
For example, the metamorph theme often need for modding the toolbar, that you have cyanogen (shubcraft hd2 roms for example)
Changing battery icon often didn't need anything special and should work.
For exemple on my shubcraft build :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It can be tricky to know what works and doesnt on our distro, so always make a complete titanium backup before, in case your system doesnt boot anymore.

Change the title if you want more people to help you... I thought this was a how to...
I will be posting a how-to on my site soon...
In the meantime, for system themes: simply replace the the drawable-hdpi in framework-res.apk/res with the one from the theme you want. use adb push to put back into the phone.
On my build, since there's no recovery mode where we can safely change system files in use, I had to reset my email accounts and wallpaper settings after this...
no biggie...

Thanks fellaz
metamorph does work
I use the donator version and was able to successfully use the zen theme and a few more themes
however, I have been receiving issues with installing others (eg nextTang for example)
What I've been doing/done that hasn't worked is
I create a file in the root directory of my storage card, make the system folder and copy the theme files to the system (eg app, lib, res)
but my android gets a reboot sequence. It never boots after I apply the theme
I should clarify this is on shub 1.4b cm6 rc3 I tried that method
I also tried editing the htcupdate_leo.tar.gz in which the system file is in (copying the files from there) but I can't boot afterward. The boot splash reloops
any help is super appreciated
edit pongster where in the heck is your site????
Been tryingt to change the ugly stock sense theme all day without luck.
Tried metamorph even the pro version, then to replace files in root framework also creating framework folder in android build folder but nada, the phone will not boot after these tries. Kinda getting the feeling im not getting the right themes. Using darkstones latest.
Any links and howtos on successful theme installs?

with darkstones ROM's and builds you will need to delete the .odex file and the file you are about to push over before you can get it to work right. so in short the steps needed would be.
edit your theme to your liking
adb shell rm -r nameoforiginalfilestillonphone.apk /location/of/file
adb shell rm -r nameoforiginalfilestillonphone.odex /location/of/file
adb shell push nameoffileyouthemed.apk /location/you/deleted/from
adb shell reboot
this should work, but dont blame me if it doesnt.
i take no responsibility. this is simply what works for me when working with builds that have not yet been de-odexed
framework-res.apk does not seem to have a matching odex file. All the jar files have it but not apk.
ill give it a shot anyway.
no luck...
did however find out that placing the framework-res.apk on storage/android/root/system/framework does load it upon boot (saved my last crashed build by placing the original framework-res.apk there).
however have tried several framework-res.apk files from different themes... all of them crash my froyostone buid at the moment....sux :-(
Root explorer is pretty straight forward but can be confusing for some people who have never used it before. I have made this list based on the most commonly questions I have read about how to use Rood Explorer. I hope this answers your questions but if it doesn't, post the question and I'm sure I or someone will help you out.
When it won't let you manipulate a file ("this file system is read only") just touch the white button on the top that says "mount r/w"
When you long press files and folders for the sub menu, you can
Extract all
Delete
Rename
Copy
Move
Change Permissions
Properties
Add Bookmark
Send
View as text
Open in text editor
Zip a file
Create Tar
Change owner
You can also press menu for
New folder
Preferences
Bookmarks
Search
Muli-select
more gives you
Home
Refresh
New file
About
Exit
This program pretty much explains itself so just give it a little time and mess with it for a bit.

You will need the .apk file for the app you want to install. Put it on your sd card. Then Just copy the .apk file in the system/app folder. you will need to hit the R/W button up top in order to copy/ paste it there. After that it will show up in your app drawer.

This reply is actually incomplete.
Those are the first steps necessary, but the most important step is, once the file has been successfully copied, to long-press on the file (or press "Menu" while the file is highlighted), and choose "Permissions". A series of checkboxes will appear. The Permissions will need to be set to match the other files in /system/app, which will be rw-r--r--. That is, all of the first column boxes should be checked, and the top checkbox in the second column. Any other checkboxes should be unchecked. Once that's done, press "OK", and it will confirm the permissions have changed. The Permissions on the file you copied over should now match the other files in the folder. THEN, after you reboot, the app should appear in your app drawer .

Ok I've has quite a few people asking me how to make the Sense 3 navbar semi-transparent so here is a guide on how to do it...
btw, sorry for terrible paint skills
Firstly download the latest m10 tools from here, thanks to Diamondback and Flemmard
Then extract them to somewhere on your computer and open m10editor
Once that is done open up Rosie.apk in the editor by selecting load file and navigate to where its saved on your computer
Once its decompiled Rosie navigate to m10 Files and select Rosie_Workspace.m10 and decompile it.

Expand the lines like this,
look for btn.navbtn_side_anim-Centre, btn.navbtn_side_anim-Left and btn.navbtn_side_anim-Right
change these opacity values from 1 to 0.75
look for 2 navbar.png
and change them from 1 to 0.5
Navigate back to the Start and click save
Push it to your phone to see if it worked
Done!
Image editing
Ok, so I'm going to be editing the lockscreen ring as an example, you will need to edit the files in idlescreen_base.apk and fusion.apk in order to fully change it
Im only going to show the idlescreen_base.apk part because its really repetative
As always you are going to need the latest version of m10 tools
and don't resize images, you will break them!
Open up the m10 editor
Press load file and navigate to where idlescreen_base.apk (or whatever other .apk your editing) is
Once it's un-zipped navigate over to m10 files
Make sure 'decode images' is ticked
Then double click 'Lock_ring_motion.m10' and decomplie it
Now expand the bars until you get to 'Textures', this is where the images are
Click on each texture until you find the one you want (note images are upside down)
Right click on the image and press 'Show in Explorer'
Then right click on it in the explorer and press 'open with' and use the program of choice (I use photoshop) and edit it how you like
Then save it using the same name in the same place
Then navigate back to 'Start' and press 'Save file'
Push it and reboot to see if it worked
Done!

if you dont have these just make 2 text files and rename them to the above and link to them but then make sure you dont try and push directly to your phone and also untick the zipalign box when saving
Ok. With root explorer i navigate to /system/app/rosie.apk, then I copied it to sd card. I past rosie.apk to computer, but when M10 editor trying to unzip the apk, it says: unzipping failed
Thanks major damo.
I want to try this but got drunk last night and phone is completely dead! >.<

I didn't know insertcoin was sense 3, this only works on rosie from sense 3, rosie from earlier versions of sense don't contain any m10 files so this method can't be used

lol, no, it will just fc, you could probably do it by changing some framework but then you may as well just use a sense 3 rom

Hi guys,
Here i want to show my Rom Cleaner, its idea comes from => Here , so credits for the idea and the ini files i used as base belong to him
this app allows you to clean out unneeded crap and bloatware from your roms, before you flash them.
List of files to remove is about 100 different ones now.
i hope some of you will test this and provide feedback.
PS, program is coded in autoit, which some old AV's tend to flag, i'll offer admins a look at the source code if needed.
PS2, Only supports CWM type roms.
Greetz,
Damian

fixed bug with repacking >.<

I'm assuming course that it would course invalidate md5 checksum, and as a result there's no real assurance that the zip had been repacked correctly prior to flashing.
no, it wont pass that test, but seeying its a regular zipfile, you can always test the zip itself.

True. What about the repacking of system.img ?
this basicly only works on the CWM based roms, which are zipfiles, so i dont touch those

Ahh. Hrm odd I don't recall ever actually using a CWM based rom, every rom I've tried after CM7.2 have been mostly ICS roms, and every i've ever unpacked have had each of the partitions saved as img files.
yes that is weird, every rom i use can be flashed by cwm, and when unpacked, only bootimage is a img file, rest is folders and files.
Interesting idea, cool. So far, I've been deleting manually files from the zips. One suggestion, could you add someday ability to add programs into the selected ROM?
Or even better, enable user to create batch package/batch deletion of his apks/always-deleted-apks that could be added/removed with a single click to/from every consecutive ROM ? Just a loose idea.. Thanks!

you can allready do that, just place the apk's in the files/add folder' it allready has system and data in there, just make a apps folder and drop them in
good idea, ill let program save removal settings on exit, so it can load them when it starts

I'm afraid I don't follow. Drag and dropp doesn't work in any case. I tried dnd on apks, zips with structured folders or folders alone. Give me a tip
chech the program folder, in the files/add folder, are 2 more folders, data and system.
if you make an app folder in there, and drop your apk's in there, they will be pushed to your rom
example, 'files/add/system/app/MyTestApk.apk'

Ok, thanks for the advice! I assume that it won't push apks that aren't supported in removal? I'm talking specifically about Cerberus.apk - it is very advantegous to integrate the app with a ROM.

thats totally unrelated, any file you place there gets pushed, any file.
Come to think of it, I might actually be thinking bout backups I do recall a lot of roms do have the folders set where they're migrated to the existing filesystem.
true, CWM backups are img files
Very nice idea for a program. Is it limited to only roms for our device or literally any CWM flashable zips?
it works on all actually, but i only have HTC phones, so others arent much supported in the apk department, simply because i cant check them
