FROYO Milestone Themes for G.O.T. 2.2.1

GOT FROYO 2.2.1 Ports
Here you will find ports of my current 2.36 Themes to the new G.O.T. Froyo 2.2.1 version (not all - there are too many), which will grow with time. For consistency I link to the original Thread, where you find downloads, How-To and links to Original Threads with Screenshots.
Ports:
Elegant Steel - Done
SummerBlues - Done
DroidX - Done
BlackBar - Done
Black Droid - coming soon
Black Sun - Done
REVOlution - Done
X10 - coming soon
TechBlue - coming soon
Credits:
mattmaso for cooperating with me on the battery hack
XEUDOXUS for the transparency froyo hack and plenty of pngs for BlackSun
Jabberwalkie for inspiration for SummerBlues
manup456 for REVOlution
Jedispotty for creating the Photoshop concept for Elegant Steel
Brutall for his great apktool
jesusfreke for smali/baksmali
G.O.T for honoring me by selecting SummerBlues as the official G.O.T Theme
UPDATE Transparent Notification Shade:
Following Themes now have a transparent notification shade. Even if xUltimate patch did not work on Milestone (I manually edited the smali), credit for original hack belongs to XEUDOXUS for patching the services.jar as the first themer under froyo.
SummerBlues - Transparency Update - Done
BlackSun - Transparency Update - Done
BlackBar - Transparency Update - Done
Elegant Steel - Transparency Update - Done
Installation with GOT 2.0 OpenRecovery:
* Copy complete Theme Folder on SD in openrecovery/addons/themes
* Turn off the phone and boot in recovery as follows: Press the camera button first and then also together the power button, if you see the M logo, you can leave the buttons alone. After a few seconds you see a warning triangle - then first push the volume up button and then also together the camera button. You will see a menu and choose with the trackpad "apply sdcard:update.zip".
* In GOT Menu choose "Stock GOT Features Menu - Theme Menu - Install Theme Menu".
* Select your desired Theme parts (Bootanimation - Framework - Apps - Fonts)
* Finally choose under "Select Theme" your favorite Theme
Please don`t forget - ALWAYS NANDROID FIRST
For non GOT Recovery users Install Scripts are in all Theme folders. Copy these in Scripts folder of your OpenRecovery and install like any other script in your recovery.

Battery Hack for 10% steps Metamorph (incl. in my themes anyway)
http://www.android-hilfe.de/themes-fuer-motorola-milestone/50339-metamorph-batterie-hacks.html
1. With Metamorph
* Rename LauncherPro in Launcher.apk and push it to system/app with permissions 644, then reboot
* Copy the complete .zip in sdcard/AndroidThemes
* Open Metamorph and choose "unzip/Extract new Theme"
* Choose "pick existing theme", then go to the unzipped folder in metamorph (like "LauncherProSummerBlues") and start the xml
* Reboot and you`re all set
2. With GOT OR 2.01
* Copy unziped folder in OpenRecovery/addons/metamorph
* boot in recovery
* Navigate to OR Stock GOT Features - Theme Menu - OR Metamorph Menu - Install Theme Menu and choose the morph
I would recommend using GOT OR 2.01
1. Safer, since in recovery mode
2. app will be zipaligned - less RAM usage and improved battery performance
3. Widgets remain intact
4. Backup function of original Launcher

thanks a lot

Thanks alot, im waiting for the black sun theme. keep up the good work

thanks a lot for these! looking forward to more

wow, amazing open recovery mods! nice work, guys!

not working
Hi, I just registered because i am so glad of the Froyo Firmware for the Milestone.
A big thanks to G.O.T. by the way.
But now I have a Problem, if i try to install one of the themes up on this site my stone will not boot anymore. I installed how it was explained. I put the theme folder in the Addons Folder in Openrecovery. In the openrecovery menu they appear and if i chose one of them the scripts are running and saying "all done" but then my stone does not boot. there will be only the motorola sign.
I installed G.O.T. theme and thats working - thats very good because otherwise i could not use my phone.
But where is the problem with the other themes? I tried it with ElegentSteel and SummerBlues both the same thing. I like to have the SummerBlues theme because the screenshorts are looking so nice.
Maybe anybody can help me?
best regards Joe

You have to put it on theme folder, sub folder under addon

Summer Blues is GOT and GOT is Summer Blues - read the GOT BLOG, I allowed them to use that theme as the new official GOT
Thx again @ GOT for using my theme and letting me test your ROM upfront, you guys rock. Also big thx @ jabberwalkie for his inspiration for summerblues and all the other devs and themers out there, theming is so much easier these days due to a lot of improvements of great XDA members.

i found a little problems.
- Notification background not transparent
- downloading/uploading dropbox notification fonts are black ( on black background )
(Black Bar & Black Sun - RTEU)
btw, thank a lot for nice themes

Thanks for posting the battery metamorphs!
I had a question:
Do you think the many battery icons that are in this thread: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-themes/75093-metamorphs-battery-icons-ripped-roms.html
would work on the GOT 2.2.1 for milestone??

they work without the 10% hack, but for the hack you need more icons and different names. I will launch more battery MM`s in that thread anyway.

I manually edited the services.jar now with success and the notification shade is now transparent for Summer Blues. I will update the other themes also accordingly and will keep you guys posted.

Ok sweet, i'm looking forward to more!

GDD Ultimate Theme Mod

Hello everyone,
I have used the GreenDevDroid theme as the base due to its animations (Thanks to giveme13s) and did a quickfix of the aspects that I felt to be not too appealing.
Changes:
1. Changed the green notification bar to black and did a few minor modifications to the notification area
2. Changed boot animation from the flipping coin to 'Android Particles 1'
3. Changed system font to Comfortaa
4. Replaced the battery indicator with circular battery (Version I)
Screenshots: Attached (Blanked out a few areas )
Instructions:
1. Copy zip file to sdcard
2. Boot into recovery
3. Make a NAND backup
4. Flash zip file (it is signed)
Download:
multiupload.com/IOMI1GQSNS
Notes:
I am using a modified void #delta rom but I presume that the theme would work with other roms. In case you only want the circular battery, you may use the framework-res.apk from this theme or just pick-up the relevant png files within it.

will try it now on lol rom..feedback later..
edit:
its working on lol rom..i love the boot animation and the effects
tnx mate!

Thanks got you did it!!!Iwas trying all night to do it without result. Thank you!

Doesnt work for me on stock rom. Errors appeared - cannot run LG home, cannot run market and so on. Had to do nandroid restore. Anyway thanks for your effort!

Exactly what was in my mind Thanks a ton
Works well on VOID ECHO.

Best theme i've seen so far, it's just what i wanted, black & green. And works great to.
I wish you could make another zip, exactly the same theme, but with the original font inside, the font you used is a little unreadable when it's small.

Try one of the fonts here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=801160
I am using UBUNTU 10.10. Seems a little better. You just need to flash it from recovery.
And also, I thought the animations were too much of a distraction. Returned to standard animation.
Now it is just perfect.
Thank you so much guys.

I wonder why I hadn't seen that thread before, may be because I haven't spent too much time over here Anyway since I had already made zip files for the original font as well as for comfortaa, I have attached them to the first post.

Excellent Work.Thank you guys!!!

Thanks for this theme. There is no match for the original fonts(Personal opinion). Love the battery/bootimage.

thanks for the theme.. gosh there are tons of theme compatible with void.echo.
good job!
now i am just curious about window animations. is there an animation like the flip page in windows phone 7?
i think its cool to have that one too.
and i also have used some window animations in Ubuntu, like the beam-me-up-scottie kinda animation... when the window was liked beamed up to starship enterprise... you know those animations?
its also kewl to have that...
thanks and more power!

This is currently the best theme i get for my void.
Overall it is just so awesome.
Thumbs Up for the effort.

I am on void # echo, I am continously getting sdcard mount/unmount problem. By the way I am having a class 4 sdcard and it never had this issues.
i am reinstaling fresh void#echo and will update here, if it happens again.
Good work man, I love you theme.

nice theme dude
love it

i tried your framework-res.apk because i only wanted the circular battery, but it seems that the file had more modifications that that. Anyway, love the change, but it seems that mi clock en the top bar cant be seen cause thar bar is now black as the clock font.
How can i solve this?
Thnks man!!

Nice themes.. thank you.

How To: Custom Boot Sound / Animation with GINGERTH3ORY

After days of unsuccessful searching of the forums and also Google and multiple flashes between stock Rom and Th3ory's I have figured out how to add sound to his boot animation or your own custom boot animation in his rom.
NANDROID BACKUP FIRST!! YOU WILL BE EDITING A SYSTEM FILE USED DURING BOOT
1. copy default.xml from /system/customize/CID to /sdcard using Root Explorer or another app.
2. open VZW_bootanimation.zip to see what the name of the folder with your boot png's in it is named. Write that down. If using the boot animation that comes with GINGERTH3ORY the folder will be "part0"
3. open default.xml from your sdcard using a web editor. I use Android Web Editor Lite.
4. on line 120 will be the info for where the phone looks for the boot animation and boot audio. notice that boot animation is VZW_bootanimation.zip and audio is Verizon_Thunderbolt_3sec.mp3
5. on line 120 change audiostart="VZW" to audiostart="part0" or whatever the name of the folder is with your boot animation png's in it
6. save the xml and exit your editor
7. change the name of the original default.xml to default.xml.old
8. using Root Explorer paste the edited default.xml from /sdcard into /system/customize/CID
9. now paste whatever mp3 you want to play at boot into the /system/customize/resource folder and rename it to Verizon_Thunderbolt_3sec.mp3
10. reboot and finally enjoy the audio
If using a custom boot animation simply rename it to VZW_bootanimation.zip and paste it into the /system/customize/resource folder.
Hope this helps those that were having issues!

Kudos man. I can't test tonight, but will test it in the morning.
EDIT: Worked perfectly on Th3ory's v4.5.1 Great work!

Currently making a backup and then I'm going to try this... hope this works for me. Haha.
EDIT: Works great. Thanks so much. I missed my phone coming to life.

THANK YOU!!! This worked great! Now I can apply thunder/heart beat combo as the eye comes to life...lol
@ ILMF - Thanks for keeping a look out.

Thanks for the thanks everyone.
I don't have the stock animation any more. I inverted the colors on th3ory's stock animation and added the first dozen or so png's (the one's that fade in to "Th3ory" and then fade out, not the eye ones) to the beginning of the white boot ani from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1024038
mp3 of "Bodies" by Drowning Pool plays while those zombie's get shot up and hit the floor.

Hi stoudtlr, I'm trying to do a custom boot animation. I zipped the files and named it VZW_bootanimation.zip but all I get is an empty screen after the white htc screen. Any ideas?
I'm on gingerth3ory and I took the boot animation zip from there and put in my own icons with the same file names and format, but nada.

When you zip the files make sure that compression is set to "store". That's the first thing that comes to mind if you are sure you don't have a typo in the name and you have them in the right location.

[Q] A500 status bar icons/clock/buttons change?

Hi to all...
after seraching and reading a looong time now, i am stucked, the only thing i found was this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033366
But i own a A500 not a Xoom... so what to do?
Wishlist:
- White Home/Backbuttons (have some, from Dexters Rom)
- white clock
- white Wifi/Battery Icon (at least not this &%$(/& stock blue)
dreaming:
when you scroll through your homescreens, a blue frame appears, how can i change those color into black? would be awesome, let it completly disappear, so transparent maybe?
I know many of you like the Blue Theme from honeycomb, but... i really hat it!!!
So, if anyone could help me... please feel free.
I am using Dexters Iconia P2-2, and dont want to use another. So maybe someone can post a modified systemui.apk ?
I have no idea if such a apk is always compatible to all ROMs from 3.1, so i dont want to test the Xoom one, and in this apk are things i dont want to have (like green google search bar, green glow and so on) modding,opening apk files by myself... i think its easier for me went back in time and kill hitler...
I wonder why there is no real theme mod around here for the Acer A500.
Hope some knowing guys can help, or want the same... let's see
Thank you anyway

thats easy....I can tell you how to do it yourself..
NOTE: an apk is just a zip file, do not decompress these, rather double click them and open them in winrar and you can see the contents.
Download the xoom theme, and there is a folder called "System App" this has the apk you want to play with. inside each apk there is a file called "res" inside this there are a few folders, the ones you are interested in are any named "drawable..." this is where all of the graphics are held.
then open the zip the rom comes in, i.e double click and winrar will open, go to system\app and find the same apk that are contained in the theme, then it is a process of swapping the files from one to the other.
when you are finished making changes, copy your edited apk back into your rom and flash it without wiping data, because it is the same rom nothing will happen apart from th4e new apk will be installed!!
Hope that helps...

Wow, great insight! Thanks MysticGenius. I had no idea the .apk's were just archives and could be opened up

yeah, this is what I love about android, you can take someone elses rom, skin the apk to your liking, even add missing applications you use regularly and just flash.
as long as you dont decompress, the signature usually stays intact.
if you need further assistance, pm me
edit : most imagery is in the drawable-mdpi folder

I just skinned the systemui.apk is 10 minutes just so you have an idea of how easy this is!!!!

[BOOT ANIMATION] CyanogenMod 9

Hi guys I extracted the CyanogenMod boot animation from the ROM itself, and my oh my it looks wonderful! I attached it below. To install, simply after downloading it and placing it in a comfortable location, copy it, go to system>media, and paste it there It should overwrite your current boot animation and replace it but if it does not, simply just paste the CM9 boot animation there and delete the old one I tested it only on my Samsung Galaxy S2. Works perfect. Enjoy! And remember this is made by the CM9 team not me, so give them the credit. I'm only sharing their awesome boot animation to the community and not stealing their work
Edit: OH YES I recommend that you guys use Root Explorer to copy and paste the boot animation! Cause that what I used But if you have any other alternatives that you think might be better or you are more comfortable with, please share it or use it at your own risk

you might wanna see what ive done see in my signiture at the buttom click > bootanimation< ull gonna like it 100% sure

Hi!
I changed the boot animation of my Galaxy S i9000 using the app "Boot Animations * root" from the Play Store.
I took a very cool one but its getting really nasty after a while and I want to rechange it to the default animation but don't know how . Already tried what you wrote: place the .zip in the media folder and I deinstalled the app because I didn't know where to find the boot animations. Then I restardet my phone but it still didn't change the boot animation.
sry for using the word 'boot animation' that often
Hope you can help me

Try looking in /data/local
If there's a bootanimation.zip in there it'll override the one in /system/media (which is kinda useful for keeping animations across upgrades when no data wipe is involved.)
