Theme chooser requires CM framework to work, so forget about adding it to stock ROM
no way
The T-Mobile Theme Engine is not just the Theme Chooser application, but changes buried deep in the framework. It was made for 2.3+, and for 2.2 support, it needs a lot of work (directing back SystemUI.apk resources to framework.apk, etc), and most of the themes won't work correctly, as they basically rely on the CyanogenMod structure, what is now miles away from AOSP.
Adding this theme manager to an existing ROM is a pain in the ass: first you need to get all the classes changed by the Theme Engine Overlay, then baksmali these files from a, the original ROM you want to add TTE to, b, a stock ROM compiled without adding TTE c, a stock ROM compiled with TTE. Diff the files from b and c, then diff a and b, and add the [b,c] differences to a without the [a,b] differences. That's all you need to do, and as a developer myself, I can tell you it will not just take weeks (8hours daily), but half a year of work.
what
What theme on my nexus 7 ?

Thank sir
You could also try the installing the Xposed framework, which can facilitate the theming of icons and such.

Well thank you for the reply,I guess my request was kinda out there.I am no dev by any chance and didn't know it was that complicated.

I think that's only for 4.0+ or 4.1+
Ya....you can add.....by using XPOSED FRAMEWORK just Google it.

If I combined various tweaks from different people, will it be more effective and will it apply? What I did was add the missing scripts from one tweak to another, and copy files from bin folders, xbin, etc. to the corresponding folders. Will this apply?

Depends on what script you are refering to, init.d, build.prop, app tweak, jar, etc.
The term tweak is too broad but yes they can cause instability and conflicts especially if you dont know what they do and how they run

init.d tweaks. What I did was delete some redundant scripts from various tweaks(kuro's tweaks and adrenaline engine) and add it to hyperion rom. Will it perform better? Or is it just useless?

well, in build.prop tweaks there is a way to check whether the tweak is active but in init.d it has to have kernel support and other stuff, sadly the only way i know how to determine if an init.d tweak is working is i just test out if it gives performance or not

I dont know if there is sources for the apps of GT-S5360
I need is the sources for apps (SystemUI.apk)
If you have one please post it here
Thanks:victory:
I already looked at
http://opensource.samsung.com
I dont know if the sources of apps is also available there(I cant download at the server)
Decompile SystemUI.apk with apktool - it will give you all the smali files & xml files
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2206938
i don't understand what you mean,
systemui is literally reverse re-engineerable since it only affects a software point of view not hardware unlike framework,
Is there any similar tool like "tickel my android" which I can use offline.Tickel my android is also offline tool and cool.But I want something new
Decompile ur framework-res.apk
For status bar- systemui.apk
Edit pngs
For .9.pngs needs experince
Recompile

not that iv seen unless you have jellybean or higher
you can use xposed moduals but again mainly for jellybean and higher
The only thing you can do on gingerbread to theme without doing all the hard stuff yourself is use cm7 and then download theme chooser themes to apply in theme chooser - these themes can be found on the play store or by searching xda

Its FCing because the modules in the download tab arent for gb. look in the xposed module subforum for gb compatible modules. or in the thread of the framework is a link to the port of xposed framework for gb. there you will find some ported modules.

hmmm yeah.....
Hello, I'm an owner of XPERIA Z1, using the latest Customized Lollipop firmware (.242), struggling very much to deodex his device. I've tried 2 different methods, which both lead to problems:
1.) Using a flashable zip provided by venkat kamesh, in this thread: link. After flashing, I don't face any prominent problems, like FCs on system apps e.t.c. But whenever I'm trying to launch any app requiring OpenGL ES 2 , I get an error message/toast notification, about that, saying that my device is incompatible. And Google Play refuses to even show these apps in the search results, listing them as incompatible.
2.) Modifying the flashable zip to use my own /app, /priv-app, /framework, and even /vendor/apps fully deodexed folders, leading to a bootloop, and refusing to show more than 2 seconds of the bootanimation before rebooting. I thought that some package may be incompatible with my firmware, but this theory can't be proved yet.
*I've tried fixing permisions using both terminaland adb using this method: link. No result either.
Is there any other solution? Thank you!

Are you deodexing every odexed file? I normally only deodex those files whose smali I'm going to mod. There's not much point deodexing anything else..

Well yes, I just suppose that a fully odexed or deodexed system is more stable than a mix of those two.
Is there any red-line that I must not pass? Like a paricular .apk or .jar file, for example. Also on KitKat, we had to have fully deodexed system for some mods to work (like the 4K Mod by Chocolatetrain). This restriction doesn't exist on Lollipop, which utilises ARM?

No. You can, in theory, deodex as many or as few APK and JAR files as you like.
The whole point of deodexing is to make it easy to change smali files. It doesn't affect stability or performance, it's solely for modding. I normally deodex SystemUI.apk, framework.jar and android.policy.jar then leave the rest of the odexed files alone.
(Well, technically a deodexed ROM takes longer to boot if the Dalvik cache has been wiped but that's about it.)
The only reason I ask is that, if you only need to deodex a few files, there are various tools available for deodexing individual files instead of whole ROM's. I could mention that Tickle My Android can do it but that'd be a bit cheeky.
Oh, looking at that 4K mod you mentioned, it doesn't actually need the whole ROM to be deodexed. But there are so many files that are being replaced that do need to be deodexed that it's probably just simpler to say the entire ROM needs to be.

OK, thank you for the answer, I will try then deodexing just the essentials: SystemUI.apk, framework.jar, framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
Final question, as I see in your program's thread, Lollipop editing/deodexing is not supported yet, so do you recommend an automate tool for the deodexing process (like JoelDroidLollipopBatchDeodexe or any other), or the manual method?

TMA does support deodexing of Lollipop APK files...I just can't guarantee that it'll be able to deodex everything. Guess I need to reword the OP....lol

you also can use advance apktool (nice tool) , but you will have to update the apktool to the last one i think its the 2.0.0because is not updated.. cheers

Hm... I will try that too if my (already) deodexed apks won't work, thank you.
