Download Link : GOW Theme v1.5 without Boot Animation | Video Review (by qbking77) Thanks!
Download Link : GOW Theme v1.0 with Boot Animation | Installation Video/Review (by qbking77)
Download Link : GOW Theme v1.0 without Boot Animation (smaller download)
1. Download the theme and place it on sd card
2. Boot into CWM
3. Wipe cache/dalvik cache 3x
4. Install the zip
5. Reboot
I have found best results if coming from a fresh flash of a new ROM. If you have any FC's from different apps then try going into Settings>Applications>Manage Applications and clear cache/data on the app of question.
- Only FC I have noticed personally receiving is from Titanium Backup. I have had to uninstall and reinstall the app after flashing.. I will look into what is causing this.
Optional Flashable Addons/Fixes:
Updated Phone.apk (New themed in-call dialer pad) | Preview (FLASH IN CWM, NO WIPE REQUIRED)
Wallpaper used in theme
Gears of War custom boot animations
Icon Pack for use in different launchers (Launcher Pro or ADW)
Maps/GMail/Market Icon Fix 6/30 (Fixes icon from Google app updates. Download most recent Market updates to phone FIRST then flash this fix.)

Gears of War
ZiggSeVO and Paul627g bring to you a theme based on the popular XBOX game, Gears of War. Anyone familiar with the game knows its a 3rd person based shooter that made its way back onto the XBOX back in 2006 selling over 3 million copies in its first 10 weeks. Coming in September is the 3rd and supposed to be final release in the Gears of War series and early beta testing and reviews have shown it to be probably the best yet. The game has won Game of the Year awards, has a book series its based on and even a planned movie in the works. The game is based on a team of military based individuals known as Delta Squad on the planet Sera. They are fighting for the last survival of the planet from the Locus Horde. It has a very interesting story plot behind the game that makes it so fun not only as a online mulitplayer game but also famous for its great campaign story mode game play. Its a game known for blood, sweat and for many heated comments/arguments between players during and after multiplayer gameplay.
I came to ZiggSeVO after he did his Gears of War boot animation with the idea of doing the theme because nobody out there has really attempted it. There was a awesome theme on the Blackberry back a year or so ago but nothing done really for Android. I owe a big thanks to Zigg for his work on most of the graphics and I handled most of arrangement of the theme and working with the files.
So far we believe we have captured the dark, gritty, not so pretty feeling and look that is Gears of War and the true Gears fan will appreciate the theme we are providing.
[NOTE]Please note this is a wip (work in progress) with updates planned as we design and finish other aspects of the theme.
** We are planning on eventually porting/upgrading this to Gingerbread so hold tight...
*** To any themers/devs your more than welcome to port this to your device, just leave us some credit.
