Theme Control Files?

[EDIT:] Could a mod move this to the Themes/Apps forum? Thanks
Hi, so I just rooted my 2.1v3 leak eris and have been looking at themes. I downloaded Metamorph from the market to try and apply my themes. However, Metamorph has not been able to find a Theme Control File in either of them.. I was wondering if people have this problem as well?
These are the themes I've been trying:

My rom is Aloysius 2.0 v12
Thanks for the help! I'm still new to the rooting scene, though I've tried all the roms I can get my hands on!

MM uses 2 diff types of files. THM, which is the old way and many people still use this, and XML, which is the new way and better way. You can always convert the THM to XML, but will require you to rezip the file. There is a converter in the Hero section by the creator. Cant rem link. Not home, but just search it and you shall find.

Thanks, I was able to install the zip from my sd card in clockwork mod recovery

[Read before posting a Thread]General Q n A for Galaxy 3. Ask your problems here.

I have made this thread exclusively for Q and A on Galaxy 3. If you have some doubts, questions or need some help just mention it in this thread. I think this will be better than posting a new thread in the Development Section or General Section and you shall also get more attention if most of you co-operate to visit and share your questions and solve others problems.
Hope this Thread will be used for asking questions and searching answers.
So how many of you think this is the right thing. If you support me kindly start asking your questions (if any) here from the moment.

Good job, we missed this in general section i think

Please see that Cyanogen Mod is currently in Alpha stage and some modules are not working.
If you want to install it any way for testing purpose follow the link below then you download the ZIP File. After download completes extract the zip to obtain a TAR file. Fire up ODIN and Select the OPS as you and Flash as one package with the TAR image. After phone flashes up and boot. Wipe Data and Cache from the Recovery and reboot. You would be able to use CM7 Alpha5 Fix1.
Please See- You cant install CM7 without flashing and also see that you have a backup of your whole phone. Use titanium backup from market.
CM7 Download link- http://www.multiupload.com/Y3GTH2QN56
If you dont know how to flash please inform i will help you with the links.
If your problem is still not solved. Kindly quote my answer and tell me.

I think it is not available on Samfirmware. I think we have to obtain from ROM Image of XXJPS.

You can t until you disable data2sd. And how do your widgets disappear?? The app or the widget will be in SD-ext partition. Which is not detected by windows.

Quote Wikipedia, "BusyBox provides several stripped-down Unix tools in a single executable. It runs on top of the Linux kernel just as does Gnu/Linux. It is ideally suited to run in embedded devices. It has been self-dubbed "The Swiss Army Knife of Embedded Linux".".
Basically it is a tool which allows you to perform certain functions.
Eg : - Changing permissions.

Well Cyanogen Mod is still in alpha stage as the title suggests. And the camera driver is still not functional. It will be fuctional in the final build.

nandroid backup/clockwordmod how?

Hiya, i am in the UK England and have a Samsung Galaxy Apollo GT-5801 which was on orange but unlocked
and now fully rooted using SuperOneClick it's currently running stock ROM and no kernels have been flashed.
so it's basically just rooted.
i have been reading in depth about flashing kernels/roms and seen everyone always saying make a backup
with clockworkmod recovery,
well now i am stuck the apollo according to clockworkmod website and ROM manager doesn't have any
supported application for this model of phone. every time i go to install via rom manager it says sorry this
phone is not supported unless you have installed clockworkrecovery by some other method.
So can someone tell me how i can get Clockworkmod recovery onto my phone with the custom rom it already has?
this way i can make a backup of my nand/phone and be happy that i can just restore it if and when needed.
not really interested in using custom roms i don't want to mess with that side i am happy with the phone as it is
just i wish when holding down power + volume + home button the recovery hboot screen had the clockworkmod instead.
all i rooted the phone for was to get shut of the stock apps taking up space, my phone is now how i like it.
and just want to be-able to make an image to restore back to.
i have tried using premium apps like titanium backup pro but its useless because that only lets you
backup and restore in the phone OS and plus it makes like 150 separate files instead of 1 .img file or zip file
i need something i can backup/restore if my phone one day doesn't boot.
i just downgraded my wife htc wildfire to be-able to root and install cygenmod7 which she is loving.
but that phone has clockworkmod (rooted with unrevoked) so it automatically installed it.
Anyway thats the background, and the reason i really need to get this nand backup working on my phone.
can anyone , anyone who's somehow installed clockworkmod recovery on their Apollo please help me out.
thank you!

Just flash a custom ROM such as Purumod v3. You don't know what you're missing in terms of performance. It's amazing! And it also has CWM pre-installed as do all of the ROMs on this forum. It saves you the hassle of finding the CWM files and having to manually overwrite some of the system files. If you really don't want to install a custom ROM then you can flash the G3Mod kernel which has CWM pre-installed or you can move this file to /system/bin.

Thanks for the quick reply, i looked into the G3mod Kernel it states there that the latest version is available
but when you click the download link to the files the latest there is a kernel below that.
code.google.com/p/g3modteam/downloads/list
if you look there the latest version they have is G3MOD_2.4.1_NON-OC.zip but there is a thread in G3MOD advertising 2.5
but i cannot see or find this 2.5 anywhere, obviously i want the latest as it includes the latest CWM version from what i can tell
on the features list.
unless i am blind 2.5 is not available at the link above sorry not got 10 posts so can't post the actual link?

WOW fantastic i just don't get it!! how did you find that? comes to something when the
Original Poster who's giving his links out to download his kernels can't even seem to provide 2.5
but yet someone who isn't the creator seems to have all the files current.
thanks much appreciated, wonder why 2.5 isn't on the google downloads site?
all his other files are there just missing 2.5 for some bizarre strange reason

Its because the Dev who uploaded version 2.5 forgot the Google code password and I would recommend using fugumod kernel and the cwm file I posted since G3MOD kernel doesn't give as good battery life as fugumod.
Click thanks if I helped.

wouldn't it be a good idea for him to maybe edit his first post explaining that and maybe putting on mediafire or some other hosting.
lol people like me wouldn't be scratching their heads reading a thread which is all about this kernel but the kernel is no where to be found.
much appreciated guys,

This belongs in the Q&A section. Here's a crash course........
Look at an existing ROM, ex: the one you listed. Extract all the folders in to one new folder on your desktop. Add your mods, remove your bloat, edit the build.prop. When you are satisfied, drop the boot.img (kernel) you want to use into that same folder and zip it. That zip becomes your ROM, the updater script is already there and I'm pretty sure Evil said it's cool to use his ROM as a base. So.......make sure you give proper credits for work you used, and people who helped you *wink wink*
**Do not zip the folder itself, but rather the contents. I included a screen shot of my ROM in a plain folder before I zip it for mass consumption

Thank you guys fire the help. And I'll give proper credit, where credit is due.

Default theme

Known bugs (and will not be fixed):
Icon in launcher is so small, SOLUTION: please try to apply the default theme.
Backup function doesn't work properly, SOLUTION: don't backup Gallery, Music, Voice Recording, DND. Some system applications give error when backup them.
Your phone is a LDPI phone, so please don't try to apply MDPI or HDPI lock screen and theme, it will absolutely break the framework.

Your phone is either not rooted or you not using a root browser & given it root permissions
Like I said es file Explorer tick root browser in settings then grant it superuser access
You can download a root checker app to make sure you are actually rooted

You need to port it yourself as we do not own your device therefore to keep sending files to & from for testing is annoying & not practical
Also I don't know why you would want to port this rom as it's just cm7 built from source - there's no theming or any special modifications
To port a rom you need a base rom - that means you must have a working cm7 for your phone already
Now do you see why I say there is no point in porting a non themed cm7 as it's just cm7 from source
If you don't have cm7 for your phone you will have to build it from source - only someone with your phone and coding knowledge can do that

I like those icons on MIUI. By the way, is there any way that I can learn developing ROMs?

If you just want the icons why don't you extract them from the rom (decompile relevant apk) and them copy them into your rom (file names must remain the same)
There are loads of guides out there - best thing to do is type into google what you want to do - if you want an xda thread end the google search with xda

I made a research on the subject but I could not find a solution. Which one contains the icons on the app menu? There are millions of apk inside the ROMs. Could you please help?
