Edit: Removed theme cause it was an EPIC FAIL.
Nick, for something like this, should I even bother with APK Manager, or just unzip the theme, drop the pngs into framework-res, rezip, then toggle sig verification and flash?
Either way, I am going to bed. I will do this tomorrow morning at work if it hasn't been completed by someone else yet.

Most of my themes are done without apk manager.
Any luck with the white text in notification bar?
No luck with the white text yet. That is the only thing keeping Minimal Green from being done.
Another question about changing the battery mods. If a theme (like my honeycomb theme) only has 5 different battery level pngs(20%, 40%, 60%...), and I want to change it to a SCbattery mod that has 100 different pngs (1 for each level of battery) are there any xml edits that have to go along with those in the drawable folder under the corresponding battery xml? Or can I just throw in the new pngs and flash away...?

Framework-res/res/drawable/battery_stat.xml and battery_stat_charging.xml must be decompiled and edited. The battery mod xml files can be found here but be aware, you must copy the text from the new files and paste them into the old files. After this is done you must add the battery images before recompiling.
Just to be clear:
Pull framework-res.apk from whatever theme I am trying to edit.
Put into APK Manager and decompile
Open the two XML files in the theme with Notepad++
Copy text from SCBattery mod xml files
Paste into theme xml files
Change the png files
Recompile framework-res
Put back into theme
Flash
Sound about right?

I tried to flash it and got "Wrong digest: system/framework/framework-res.apk Signature verification failed"
Should I toggle sig verification?
Oh wow...just noticed that when I plug the phone in, the icon goes away. Unplug the phone and it's fine.
I'll leave the theme flashed, but when you have a sec, could you take a look at it?

Unfortunately you have to start with a stock framework in apk manager but you got the idea
Phone is plugged in and battery is at 100 and icon shows up. So, it's just not showing while it's charging.
So then just rename the apk to zip, swap out the files, rename back to apk and flash...

theme_TRmodded.zip
Try this one...if it works then I won't feel like a complete idiot for the day...
If you use 7zip you don't even need to rename the file
Never been a fan of 7zip, but maybe i'll start using it. I definately see how it could make this stuff easier...
I would love some advice on how to theme DeskClock.apk. There is an awesome mod to it that goes along with my honeycomb port, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to get it to work.
Just got permission today to port these bad boys over. Minimal green is done except for the notification bar text color. Haven't been able to figure out how to change it to white yet. Athanos from over on XDA is giving me some pointers, but if anyone here know how to change it let me know and this port will be done.
