I'm about to release dxTop, which is a Launcher.apk replacement. My next feature that I want to implement is applying a theme. I was hoping someone could send me a there material for there theme so I have some images to work with. I'm looking for the images for the Launcher.apk and all the icons for the default apps. (I figure I could also replace the icons for users who don't have root)
Just PM me if your willing to help, and thanks in advance.
Thanks,
John
All you need to do is open up any theme's update.zip and extract launcher.apk and open that as a zip as well. It's gonna be filled with resources that other people have probably skinned. I'd start with the Buuf skin because it seems to be one of the most complete.
Man, I wasn't thinking clearly, thanks
Yes a great start would be BUUF, it has the most complete theme mods i Ihave seen to date.
Kalagas Mixed Theme for Cyanogen MOD
This Theme is ONLY for Cyanogen MOD by nadlabak
This is a screenshots sample of Kalagas Mixed Theme for Cyanogen MOD:
For full size Screenshots (better quality) of Kalagas Mixed Theme for Cyanogen MOD take a look in this SlideShow.
Before doing anything take a Νandroid Backup just in case...
For installing Kalagas Mixed Theme for Cyanogen MOD you will need Androidiani Open Recovery that you can find HERE.
So download Androidiani OpenRecovery and extract it as it is on your sdcard (you must have on the root of your sdcard a folder named OpenRecovery and a .zip file named update.zip)....
Here I will try to keep my theme updated with nadlabak's releases:
So below i will put a Title with nadlabak's Realese Name and links with my Theme:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) For update-0.04-10.12.04-cm-6.1.0-Milestone-signed.zip.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then put the 2 .zip files, you have downloaded from above links, in the ROOT folder of your SDcard. Then make right click on each one and select the option "unzip here".
If you have done all the unziping procedure as i described you must have the following folders and files in your SDcard:
1) sdcard/OpenRecovery/theme/froyo/apps/All modded .apks
2) sdcard/OpenRecovery/theme/froyo/bootanimation/empty
3) sdcard/OpenRecovery/theme/froyo/fonts/empty
4) sdcard/OpenRecovery/theme/froyo/framework/framework-res.apk
5) sdcard/CMTheme/Yiannis2.xml
OK lets go for it....
Close your Milestone. Get into Androidiani OpenRecovery.
Just to be sure make Wipe cache Partition and Wipe Dalvik-cache.
Then choose Froyo 2.2.1 Modding Menu - Menu Install and Restore Theme - Install Theme and let it finish.
After Theme is installed, make again Wipe cache Partition and Wipe Dalvik-cache and Reboot.
After phone opens go to Settings - CyanogenMOD settings - User Interface - Tweaks Extra - Choose Theme and select Yiannis2 and Reboot one last time...
Now your Milestone will open with your NEW Kalagas Mixed Theme for Cyanogen MOD.....
Good Luck... And don't forget I don't have any kind of responsibility if something happens to your Phone...
If you like my work, feel free to buy me a beer...
Wow very cool! Can you apply new gingerbread animation to your theme?
This thread is made only for nadlabak's releases...
I change the .pngs on all nadlabak's apks and framework just to be sure my theme is 100% compatible with nadlabak's releases.
So if nadlabak make ROM with gingerbread's animations I will follow...
Wow great!
Checking it out!
Updated to 08b.12.10 version of nadlabak's release....
My Mixed Theme updated to be compatible with nadlabak's 10.12.12 version...
See first Post everyone is interesting....
Thanks Kalagas!!! I was cooking my ROM based on CM6 12/12/10 with your OLD Mixed Theme! (With old icons, for example the setting icon with the crossed tools)
But now I can use this new one!
I am in love! <3

You must reflash nadlabak's latest release and latest Google apps...
Animations
Hi Kalagas
In latest release, you take off the animations?
how can I put this on?
I didn't put anything off....
Make a wipe dalvik cache and a wipe cache to see if you have back the animations...
In my phone the Cyanogen animations works just fine with my theme...
Very nice, installed right now on 12/12 release, thank you so much and good work.
hi
i did install the theme but my phone stuck on CM logo screen
any solution?
None else have this issue...
Probably you do something wrong....
Any further informations as what Rom did you have before applying my theme would be usefully...

and i did exactly the same way you explained but nothing
also i've tried to apply the gingerbread theme for milestone
from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=864300
and the same problem
Hey guys come on...
Read carefully please before you use something...
In first post I am very clear...
This specific theme is for 10.12.04 and above releases of nadlabak's ROMs...
Not for 10.11.16...
That's why you stuck in M logo...
Not my fault...

Has OP considered implementing the Drop-Down Power Menu to this theme?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=838013
I have no clue how to combine these 2.
I tryed to put some of my files in this theme but I cant do that..? It looks like there are two files of the same name in folder with battery .png files and 7zip is showing some error message when I try to add some of my files.. but if I delete that error files and add my battery files after flashing that changed file I cant see battery at all.. there is no battery icon in status bar..:-( Someone else have similar problem? How to do that? change battery .png files to work?

Me too but I do like scar45 PCB Theme with bounce animations. Eskodroid's black and blue espresso is good with the notification power control widget, maybe we'll get carbon with this mod too.

I love colored themes so I made one for the latest Milestone CyanogenMod 7 RC4.1 0.08-11.04.10
Everything is colored, you will love this theme. Some screenshots are attached (or see post #8) , but that's not all...
Download the file, put in OpenRecovery/update folder and reboot in recovery
Important: Make a Nandroid Backup before installing!.
Install like you installed CM7 and Google Apps
Change background (default is black to save space) and enjoy
Here is the NEW link:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=0KLRMOVJ
or else download from MirrorCreator (thanks to sileshn)
http://www.mirrorcreator.com/files/G9WU4VAW/
Note: there are other updated versions in the following pages.
Feel free to download my theme and use my icons in your themes
where the preview...?
Make it Theme Chooser theme or I am pretty sure noone will use it.
It's not only for framework-res, but also browser, settings and more files.
With Theme Chooser you will have less than 40% of the theme.
I will post preview in few hours
EDIT: I don't know how to make an update.zip file, if someone link me a guide I will do it.
I tried once and make a disaster, maybe because I used the google apps update.zip as source

you should make an update.zip package. your method is too complicated for a noob... and a preview is also a most recommended thing

You can use the attached template for creating a update.zip for your theme.
apps go into /system/app folder
fonts go into /system/fonts folder
framework files go into /system/framework folder
edit : Here is your theme as a flashable zip file.
Done. Now I'm making some previews.
Here is the theme:

Well, in that case , you need to replace the themed apps in the theme zip file with the original ones and apply the theme again.

Basians Color Theme FroyoMod
Its awesome. I have change some icons and colors. Also i have made the "scrollbar_handle_..." in green-red. Its better to see and its looking very cool. J4m2c.
great theme. but the dial pad seems weird.
First of all I should say that Carl & the guys did a fantastic job with the new ROM. My question is more of a stylistic issue, but is there an easy way to change the home-screen icon to the one shown is the first picture of the following thread? I would ask directly there but I'm a new member and apparently that's not allowed...Senior member PwN.CraZyTagZ also shared his holo toggles which totally rock and were easy to install (just replaced hyperion-res.apk in system/framwork). Could there be a similarly easy way to swap the home-screen icon?

thanks a lot...it's good to know that. Presumably the aforementioned procedure won't work if I've odexed my Hyp.8 GM final, will it? I've not actually tried it but I'm expecting to find a launcher.odex file instead of the apk...
many thanks again (pressed it also)
