I have did research and i know the answer is out there but i could not find it....im trying to download 2 zips...to change my battery icons...i want to install the battery digits from black and blue grass theme, and implement them into the epic dark horse theme. When i use metamorph to unzip them, i get that theme control file issue and metamorph closes. I have a rooted epic of course...srf 1.2 rom..and vision kernel...or if anyone else knows what i can do...please let me know. I know i can swap out battery files from one zip to another...but maybe there is an easy way. Thanks for your time to all....

[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
How do I use the stock epic dialer on Viper ROM? I don't really like the black theme and was just wondering if I could revert just the dialer?
Thanks

Greetings all I'm brand new to the community..
I would love to see more themed dialers, in addition to the above requests. I did a good 30 minutes of searching through various posts as well.. Only to find two specific threads regarding dialers
By: idkwhothatis123 and jbadboy2007
One spoke of FC with some contacts button or something..
The other threads mentioning themed dialers led me to believe there would be more..
I'm either missing something. or I'm missing something??
Might any body point me in the right direction of were I could check out some themed dialers? Purtty please?
I'm running (this took me 2 days of getting my hands dirty!!!)
Epic: running Viper Trinity 3.03 and..... MY GPS works!!!!!!!!(20 hours and every version of firmware to get it that way.. )
But no I'm all warmed up and ready to go.. LOL..
Regarding a themed dialer.. I'm not just making a noob request.. I'm made the decision to start learning how to develop. Yay for me.. ( I have a programming bg and am excited to get started.. )
I'd love to replace the trinity dialer though in the mean time.. Jeeze Goat.. talk much?
Thanks all
I'm not sure which build that version of viper is on, but ideally, u could download any compatible theme. Then download the acs deodexed dk28 ROM. the dialer, alone is system/app/phone.apk.
What i would do is, open both theme and acs rom with 7zip (on computer), then drag the phone.apk into the theme folder.. then save, copy to sdcard, and flash normally.
Dialer
Thanks man for the quick reply..
I'm running SPH-D700-DK28-Extended-D
I believe that should suffice. Don't know what deoxed means yet. but I think my version is "deoxed"..?
So what I'm gathering is I can just grab any compatible theme copy it's phone.apk in to the the DK28 build that I'm using.. and re-flash?
That would mean I would then need to reflash the ROM right..
My understanding is that reflashing with a DK28 build will kill the custom ROM(viper)..
I'm having a sneaky suspicion that this should be in the devlopment section.. and now I'm thinking I need to do more homework.. Hmmmm
on another note.. I just d/l Viper Store from market.. they have some custom dialers for dl.. I'll try one of those..
However.. only one of them is available for d/l from my phone as the other 3 require one to use the multiupload link provided.. which strangely enough doesn't work on my(oranyone's?) Epic..
Ahhh so many little issues..
Thanks for you help
i am hoping that someone can take this apk and turn it into a flashable zip for cm7.....MT4G
Here you go. The font is a little small and hard to read sometimes but it looks ok.
Good thing you can go into spare parts and change the font size.
I also attatched the stock font if you want to change back.
Flash/install these from recovery just like you would a rom.
thank you true_blue you are the man......
flashed with no problems and looks great...
also if you can possibly point me in the direction of getting the battery icon from evil's hd desire for cm7 would be appreciated
A while back I requested the lockscreen sliders from the R2-D2 Droid2 to be ported to our Glaciers and it was kind enough to have been fulfilled by Rich2Thad. It looks and works great with CM7 RC1. He based it on MrDSL's Mixer Theme. I had also done some personalization to it once he got everything functioning on it. Since RC2 came out and MrDSL released a version of his theme that works with RC2, I went ahead and merged the Star Wars theme with the new Mixer. Everything works great, except the call answer screen. I cannot get it to show the proper lockscreen sliders. I copied the files into the same places that Rich had used in the RC1 version. If anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong I would really appreciate it!
Here's the link to download the RC2 Star Wars theme.
I want to say thank you to MrDSL for his killer Mixer theme. Without it I would not have my super pimp Star Wars theme! And also thank you to Rich2Thad! Because without him I would also not have my super pimp Star Wars theme! It really does make other nerds drool!
I believe the png's you are looking for are in the phone.apk. You can modify them just like the frameworkres.apk. Hopefully this helps you out.
Edit: Just pull the images from the old phone.apk and place them in the new phone.apk.
Sent from my BluMagic Slide using the XDA App
Did you get this working?
No, I never got the call screen working. I tried to edit your most recent theme in apk format to try to get this working too. But whenever I try to install it, it says application not installed. I'm at kind of a loss as to what to try next. :/

Zip the images you're trying to replace and put them here and let me look
Hopefully renamed correctly to match.
Here they are. Thanks so much for checking this out!

It looks correct to me..I assume you're using the apk? After you replaced the images did you resign the .apk? It won't install without being signed..
If you don't know how then attach your modified version of my .apk here and I will sign it for you and repost it when I get home..
Use the newer Mixer_03.apk
edit...after looking at the images you want to replace you would need to use the metamorph file since the theme engine doesnt work with the lock screen..give me a few here
I did not sign it! That would be the reason! I think I can get it signed with Android Commander. Thanks so much for looking at it! If I run into any problems with signing I'll post it up. Thanks again!
EDIT: I looked at your thread on the General Themes forum and it only has Mixer_02.apk
The lock images you will have to use a metamorph on cause they won't work in the apk but all the other images can go directly in the apk..I would go ahead and put all the images there so they are there but the lock screen you will have to use a metamorph..
Follow?
Sorry Mixer_02 cause I havent released Mixer_03 yet.
I'm pretty sure I follow. Just replace the images in your metamorph zip with the images I have for the lockscreen.

and the phone.apk also..they have a couple lock images also.
Thanks so much for all your help man! I cannot wait to get out of class so I can finish building this! And thanks for your badass theme! It is a perfect base!
In your new theme, is it supposed to remove the power control bar in the notification drawer?
EDIT: Nevermind a reboot fixed it. So weird though.
So are you going to share your nifty new Star Wars theme? I was using the old one too but of course have since moved on since it's been "outdated". I'd love to give your new one a try though.

Mostly what he is doing is just replacing some images from my .apk..What you could do is install the Mixer.apk and then just apply his metamorph to it.
So hopefully he will share his metamorph..
Absolutely I will! I just finished it up. I'm getting errors when unzipping my metamorph, but it installs just fine. I got it up and running. I will also upload my version of your theme if you're okay with it.
Okay... I posted the MetaMorph zip in your thread MrDSL. Here is a link to the post.

Hello everebody,
Introducing my self again im a noob in android but with google im learning a little xP.
So I have updated my fone to Gingerbread 2.3.6 Stock, and now i cant get MIUI rom flashed in my fone as it is based in froyo kernel. So i have the ideia to download the miui rom, copy the framework-res.apk and replace my fone original framework. In my mind the uggly stock rom will look like miui, but i dont know if this will really happen. So i ask u guys, can i do that? Will my phone look like miui or it will become completely bug? Its safe to do that? Can u explain how?
Thanks everybody and sorry for my english.
Just google miui.apk and just install the launcher. www.4shared.com has something. When i tried it for a friend we could only find an older version that didn't let you have more than 4 icon on the dock.
But yes, visually you can make it like miui.
I know that i can install the launcher but this wont change notification bar and lockscreen, and those are the things that i really want to change, so can i load miui framework-res.apk in a stock rom? Will my phone look like miui or it will become completely bug? Its safe to do that? Can u explain how?
Well you could make a nandroid backup, then just do it.
If it doesn't work maybe look into miui themes for go launcher or such, I think they chagne stuff like task bars don't they? Not really sure though.
I don't think the MIUI framework-res would work with stock ROM and launcher themes don't change notifications etc AFAIK.

changing the system ui and framework won't do any harm like bricking my phone? does it?
Not permanently. Worst case scenario - you'll get a boot loop and have to flash back to stock, and start again.
For me this would be a non-issue, but perhaps it's too much hassle for some so each to their own.
But bottom line it would take no more than 1/2 an hour to just test it yourself and fully restore if things didn't work out and that's probably going to be the fastest way to get an answer about this.
I'd give it a crack myself for you, but my phone has been in for repair for 46 days in a row so far... so you'll be waiting a while for that
i've tried it and it got a bootloop is every framework.jar and framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk is unique to every phone??
Yes it is..Completely unique for all devices
I've seen MIUI running on top of a stock ROM, specially in xperias.
Maybe this helps:
