Gingerbread system image (.zip)

I'm uploading a Gingerbread system image as a zip so you guys can try some Gingerbread apps or pull images to make Gingerbread themes and what not. Enjoy!
DOWNLOAD
There doesn't seem to be anything new in these apps other than new themes for the launcher and keyboard, but if you still want to try, copy them to /system/app, change the following line in /system/build.prop, and reboot.
ro.build.version.sdk=8
to
ro.build.version.sdk=9

An entire system folder.
edit: Changed wording here so people don't try stupid things.

Now when you say "...booted fine..." what exactly do you mean?

screenshots of the apps???

Alright let us know. I tried moving Launcher2.apk and Music.apk to /system/app and then rebooting, but Launcher2 doesn't appear anywhere (Home Switcher, etc.) and the Music icon is just gone from the app drawer, so I guess I'm doing something wrong.

you did nothing wrong, the apps WONT install. parse errors? i believe the it's something to do with the manifest? manifest does say for android 2.3

How funny, I am downloading all the sdk stuff now and came on here to see what people were up to only to find that you already posted what I was trying to get to ...

Try changing this line in build.prop and reboot:
ro.build.version.sdk=8
to
ro.build.version.sdk=9
edit: This works. At least for Launcher2, which I just tried.

Well then I guess it's kind of bittersweet. That's a scenario where I would've gladly been wrong if the apps worked.

Browers.apk - FC
Music.apk - FC

How'd you do the install? Did you use a file manager to move the apk to /system/app, or did you just navigate to the apk and hit install?

once build.prop changes, any method works.

Anyway you can upload the launcher2 and messaging for gingerbread?
Running Perception Build 4 w/ Setiron 1.4.1 1280

Hey guys just thought I'd report in with some observations. I got Launcher2, MMS, Music, and LatinIME installed and working. With LatinIME the only problem was there was no prediction of upcoming words. Then I installed DeskClock.apk, NetSpeed.apk, SystemUI.apk, and UserDictionaryProvider.apk (in hopes of fixing lack of text prediction). When I rebooted after installing these four, it got stuck in a boot loop. Unfortunately since I installed four apks at once, I couldn't localize the problem to one in particular. Though if I had to guess I'd say it was probably SystemUI.apk, as when I installed that it told me it was for the status bar, which may cause some issues. I'll try to install one at a time and see for sure which one causes the issue.

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.

[Metamorph] Various window animations

Disclaimer:
I am not responsible for anything bad happened to your phone after you install this window animation mod
Install this mod at your own risk!!!
Don't forget to nand backup your phone before installing this mod.
Got bored of same window animation?
Here are some window animations I gathered from various sources on Internet, made them to work with metamorph so one can change window animation easily.
Instructions:
Download and install Metamorph
Download attached zip file, save to sdcard in directory '/sdcard/AndroidThemes'
Run Metamorph and select "Unzip/Extract new theme", you need to allow superuser permission
Select a zip file
After metamorph finished extracting theme, close the prompt and hit Apply all. The phone will reboot
Note:
Your phone may reboot several times
If your phone doesn't reboot, take battery out, put it back, and power on
To revert back to original window animation, get zip file on post #7

Does this work on rooted, non-deodexed, stock rom

I guess it will work.
But to be safe, nand backup first please.

u shud also include the "stock animation" u know wat i mean the default animation in case someone wants to fall back

also, can these animation be extracted and merged with framework_res?

Yes, the animations can be extracted and merged with existing framework-res.apk

Original animation is attached.
Can't add it to post#1 because number of attachment is limited to 8.

Any link to see the animations on video?

Sorry, not aware yet of links to videos showing animations....
Anyone?

How is this program better than another (market.android.com/details?id=com.jrummy.animation.changer)?

Nice find!
mmm... perhaps Metamorph better in term of price and Metamorph can handle various things such as lock-screen, boot-animation, etc., not just window animation

Do you know what the phone signal icons are that the stock Optimus V uses in the notification bar? I look in framework-res and the stat-sys-signal-#'s there are all 4-bar icons, yet the icons that my phone uses are 6-bar.

hhhmm no blur? i always see these samples, but still no blur....
-----------------
ok i finally merged the blur animation to my Nessy Fenice framework-res...
and this one looks better for minimalists like me.
not too fancy animations, tho i find it majority of the window animations on BLUR is just zoom in and out.
the only blur animation i can see is the MENU sliding up with blur effect and a little bounce after that.. cute.
tho after that, its all zoom in and out. hhmmm.. i hope other transitions also have those blur effect.

Any vids for the OTHER animations? Mabe a link to the mod's source?

you could try to make a theme for a home replacement, e.g GO launcher and ADW support it.
download any theme, unzip it and replace the icons

The statusbar would normally disappear (not force close just not show) if it has not been correctly signed
You have three options
1 - Restore your nandroid backup you should of made before flashing anything to return your phone to the pre-flashing state
2 - Flash your original SystemUI.apk in cwm with system mounted
3 - Resign the modded SystemUI.apk with a platform key using zipsigner from the playstore and then reflash

What ever SystemUI.apk you flash will be the status bar that will be used if the SystemUI.apk has no errors in it so if you resign the modded systemui from the thread you gave and flash it as long as it is compatible and free of errors it should display - however if it doesn't the only way you would know why is through a logcat
