[INFO]As of January 2012, I will no longer be updating or maintaining this thread due to circumstances in my life outside of the Android world. My wife and I are expecting baby girl #2 here in March and well, there is quite a bit I need to do to get ready for our new arrival. Needless to say, there will be even less time to spend here once the little one arrives. I will still be around though, tinkering/modding here and there, with my Team Hydro peeps on other projects, but I'm throwing in the towel as far as owning/maintaining any work myself. Although this is a tough decision for me personally, the reasons behind it are joyous.

I would like to send a genuine Thank You to everyone who has used, supported and enjoyed the work and hopefully someday down the road I can return to owning/maintaining a few new threads.

All links will stay up and available for download and use so please continue to enjoy the themes/mods.

Re: [THEMES] Optimus s Gingerbread Themes (WIP)

Just a quick note on the Retouched theme. I flashed it on gROM and was using the gps earlier this morning. I noticed the satellite icon was flashing and would change to the location icon (that little crosshair target icon) and back to the satellite icon again. It kept doing this non stop.

I never tested if this was the case with just gROM and no themese flashed, so can't say if it's a theme issue or not. It's not a big deal since it appears to lock on the GPS signal and I never lost connection.

Thanks for porting over the themes. I really like the chill out theme, so hopefully you'll port that over when you get a chance.

Nice catch, that's hideous I'll have to fix that. And it will not affect gps function as it stands right now. I just need to fix some images.

ChillOut will be ported for sure. It is 1 of my favorites. This whole process is going to take me a few days, so just keep checking back for updates.

Awesome (and quick work) jstntp, now we just need Nick to port the power control mod. I'm patiently waiting for his rom.

Re: [THEMES] Optimus s Gingerbread Themes (WIP)

Re: [THEMES] Optimus s Gingerbread Themes (WIP)

is there a thread somewhere with a template for making these themes? i have some cool ideas.
 
Re: [THEMES] Optimus s Gingerbread Themes (WIP)

Sweet! Hope I get some time to play with these!! :D

Give Google a search, I'm sure there are some good tutorials on theming there.

Here is a quick rundown for ya.

Most theming for GB is found in two system files. framework-res.apk and SystemUi.apk. you can get those files right from the rom.zip. images you want to mod are in the drawable-mdpi folders. When your finished you can push the files back to your phone via command prompt using adb push commands. And then reboot.

Again take a look on Google for those commands.

Sorry I can't get you links right now, I'm on my phone ATM.

The dock bar in the blue touch theme is not blue. I don't know if it is supposed to be or not because i'm so used to using the custom theme you made for me lol.

Thanks again for all the hard work keepin' our phones lookin' sharp :)

What I'm going to do this time around is make the launchers with themed docks a seperate zip file for download. That way there are more choices for you all to customize as you wish.

I just finished my custom dialer base file and hopefully later today I can get those ported over.
 
Re: [THEMES] Optimus s Gingerbread Themes (WIP)

These themes look awesome!

jsntp, I have a special request...

Could you port my sROM base theme? People have been asking about sROM and I just don't see me being able to port it in the near future. I understand if you have other priorities but that would help me out tremendously! I am super super busy with my Evo 3D! Im sure you can imagine!

Oh and its only framework files. No apps.

I'm not too sure what you are asking for. If you are looking for a kitchen to cook themes in, try the UOT Kitchen.

The more themes the better. ;)
