[THEME] Massive *~BUUF~* For MDPI. Metamorph - Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps

So here it goes. After over 250 hours of copying, editing, resizing, renaming, putting things together and so on...
At long last it is ready. Buuf THEME finally for HERO devices.
The amount of work was massive.
For your OWN ease of application i have turned this into a Metamorph Theme. So you need to download Metamorph from the market (free).
SO! Here are the pictures.

- THIS REQUIRED ROOT ACCESS. For those that DON'T have root access, you can only apply the ADW launcher Theme.
- As you can see there is a lot of working going on through there. I tried to make it easiest to apply by creating this via metamorph. This means that WHENEVER an update for your rom comes, you dont have to wait for my update, you can just *simply* apply the metamorph zip and you'll have all your Apps buuf'ed. The only thing i couldn't metamorph yet was the framework-res file. I am planning to integrate that very soon, but at the mo', you're gonna have to apply a .zip via your recovery.
- Also, i am using ADW Launcher. There was a theme named ADW.buuf.theme in the market. That was not working with my rom causing many FC's, so i stripped it down, recreated it from scratch and added a ton of new app images. I have added a lot of default values that suited my liking (highlight color and so on). If you dont like those, simply change them via ADW Settings. ALSO, i have used some code from Eliotstocker to make this theme have some wallpapers. Simply change wallpaper and you should be greeted with a "Buuf Picker" option. In there i have included some of the best Buuf wallpapers.
- As you can see, I have applied a Circular Battery mod (credits to the creators). If you dont like it, simply go to the kitchen and create another mod. It is included in the framework-res.apk zip file
- I am using an edited font, extracted from the Galaxy S by Alex.
- I am also using LCD Density Changer. My setting is @ 139.
- Finally, i am attaching a small .zip file with the bootanimation i use (credit to the creator - sorry don't know who you are) with some amazing boot sequence back from the energy BIOS days, PLUS ad-free hosts, ridding you from the annoying ads.
ROMS
This is initially created for FroydVillain 1.5. The metamorph file should be applicable to ALL AOSP 2.2 Roms for ALL MDPI devices.
The only limitation at the moment is the lack of integration of the framework-res.apk file.
Instructions
1) Download Metamorph and install. Make sure you disable autokiller, in case it kills metamoprh while updating
2) Create a folder AndroidThemes in your SDCard and put the BuufMDPIApps.zip file in it. Apply.
3) Reboot to recovery and apply the framework.zip file
4) Download ADW Launcher and install my edited Buuf Theme. Go to ADW Settings, Theme Preferences, Load and apply.
5 - Optional) Apply fonts.zip via recovery - Credits to Alex
6 - Optional) Apply myboot.zip.
Caution: During the metamorph application of the theme, your phone is going to FC a lot, and sometimes ask for your pin. Please do apply the zip until it is totally done (if it stops, redo it), dont let your phone sleep, and please interact with the FC/SIM lock screens.
Uninstallation
Simply flash your ROM zip file on top. No wipe needed.

- This complete theme pack wasn't created for money. It was created to make the Buuf Theme live on for the MDPI Devices. All credits are due to the people stated above.
- However, i have put into this over 250+ hours of work. And for those of you who have never themed, well all i can say it was really a pain.

Changelog
19 Sept 2010 v1.2.1 - Initial Release
Requests
Requests for unthemed apps are welcome. Glitches and FC's, as long as distortions, should also be reported. If you wish to have your app icon changed in ADW Drawer, give me the app name, or even better the activity name (check it out via adb logcat, while launching the app) and let me know what kind of icon you want.

This as AWESOME Because you've done so much work on this also i reccomend you put it in the legend,eris and Hero CDMA forums because it should work on all those devices to Thats if you havent already

Once i get rid of the framework-res problem with metamorph i will post it under Android themes, and separately to MDPI Devices.
Thanks for the comments

hi!
the theme is looking great,awesome work!!
but i get an error when i try to extract framework-res file from recovery,i get an error that the file is corrupt or something like that...what could be the problem?
thanks!

Very good job !!
It works perfectly on Froydvillain 1.5
Just one question : what is your clock&weather widget on the screenshots ?

I am terribly sorry, i think i've put an unsigned framework-res.apk file. I shall update soon.
My clock is Beautiful widgets, with the ANDRODena_Buff clock skin and EmotiSun Weather skin.
edit. I updated the framework-res.apk file, although i doubt it was unsigned, on a second note. Perhaps your download was corrupted. Redownload and let me know please
PS. Thanks for the nice comments guys.

framework-res.apk is a system apk and does not need to be signed

I applied the first framework.zip without any problem. (in recovery mode)

My particular framework-res.apk is modified. It includes the circular battery mod, which not only changes png's, but also adds a few xml files. So yes it does indeed need to be signed. The apk itself cannot, but the .zip needs to be signed with test keys, allowing for the modified framework-res.apk to be extractable and allowing recovery to apply it.

Why were you reffering to the apk before then? Anyways doesn't matter

phone keeps rebooting at gmail.apk floyo 0.8

Looks great, I will be installing on my lunch break
One question - what difference does the LCD Density app make, and why choose the density you have ?

@shields - try to manually update the rest of the apk's. My phone rebooted as well on Gmail.apk. perhaps you have autokiller running or something. Choose Apply existing theme, select the xml file, and manually update the rest apk's
@furrypotato The difference LCD Density app does is that it makes the screen look like a higher resolution one. For example, i can fit 5x5 (columns x rows) instead of the classic 4x4 MDPI devices have. My setting is just something i have found to work fine, and dont have too many scale issues with my apps.

Installed it and loving it.
A very different theme for me to use that's a refreshing change
Thanks

Thanks for the nice comments.
Please feel free to propose any new features.

Whats the best method of adding custom icons ?
I only had a few minutes to look before I left for work but I took a look on Buuf website and found an icon I'd like to use for Tweetdeck. (Fauna #13)
Now I'm guessing I can amend the xml file in the zip in some way and place the icon.png file in folders like the others, but is there an easy way of doing it ?
I even bought beatiful widgets cos I love the themes so much
Oh, and I updated to the new Gmail last night and it's broken some of the gmail graphics such as notfication of emails.

There's no way of adding custom icons yourself. That's how i tried to do it as well. But it doesn't work. You have to create the APK from the beginning, and thats what i had to do. Took me nearly 3 days of non-stop work to remake it.
I, unlike the original creator, will intent to update the icons when asked. So let me know what icon you want for what app, give me the activity name if you have it and i will update it.
I haven't had an eye on the new gmail (as a matter of fact i didnt even know it existed). I will look at those on the weekend, as the following two days i'm taking 3 exams and my head's about to explode.
Let me know though.

Cool thanks.
I'm looking to get the attached icon added to TweetDeck Beta . Dont know activity name sorry (Whats best way of getting it)
Tweetdeck beta in case you need it :
http://downloads.tweetdeck.com/android_test/TweetDeck-0.9.9.1.apk
New Gmail is downloadable in market by the way.

friggan brilliant man, many, many, many kudos.

Info:
SystemForce is based on the artwork by Homeryulo. I love the iconset and wallpapers so I had originally created this to customize my own G1. I started adding more and more and this is the latest instance of my work. This is a HIGHLY customized theme which was in the Theme competition here at XDA once upon a time. Since then it has gone through endless revisions and updated to SystemForce2 and now SystemForce3 with over 1000+ images edited. There are ports to other rom's linked in the second post if you want to risk it.
Download - Only flash version compatible for your rom.

Frequently Asked Questions
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How do I read the funky new battery meter?
-Green = Good
-Light Green = Meh
-Yellow = Where's my charger?
-Orange = GET OUTA MY WAY I NEED TO CHARGE THIS
-Red = End of the world as we know it.
or like so:
How do I install the extra icons?
-Simply unzip the extras zip file somewhere on your sdcard, use an app such as 'bettercut' to set your icons manually. I will be changing some of the system icons to ones I like, so you can use this to change it as well.
How do I use the extra wallpapers?
-I do include the default main wallpaper in the wallpapers gallery but also offer 3 extras in the extra .zip file I included above. To use this put them in /wallpapers/ folder of your sdcard and use an app like 'wallpaper set & save' to set as wallpaper. Or just use android gallery and install from anywhere on your sdcard.
What if I want this theme for other roms?
-Some great people in this thread have helped porting over some of the theme for other roms: (older versions-only try at your own risk!!)
--JACxROM-1.3r3: SystemForce3.0.2
--JACxROM-1.3r3: SystemForce3.0.2.1
--JACxROM-1.4r3: SystemForce3.0.4.6
--JACxROM-1.5r4: SystemForce3(v1.0)
SystemForce3.0.4 for:
--JFv1.5CRB43-US.zip
--TheOfficialCRC1-US..zip
--TheOfficialCRC37-EU.zip
--TheOfficialCRC1-ADP.zip
What if I want this theme for Cyanogen's Experimental roms?
Since the whole google/cyanogen fiasco I realized this may be the last experimental rom for a while so I went ahead and ported the theme for it.
-SystemForce3-(v1.0e) (runs on CM 4.0.4 - uploaded September 26, 2009)
I don't like the GOLD color scheme, do you have it in other colors?
-Simple answer: No. Long answer: The original artwork is mostly in the gold color you see most of the images based on. If someone wants to go through all the images and change them to different colors, by all means feel free to do so and I will link them here. Flash these only at your own risk, I can't take responsibility for things others have made
Current available colors:
SystemForce3.0.4.4 in BLUE: Download from snyper2k2
-Works in CM 4.0.4
-Haven't personally tested it, just signed and uploaded.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Hell F-ing yeah!
Thank you!!
Awesome! It looks great!
i was wondering if any has tried this???
Just not for me, but I've always thought your Theme was BADASS! It's still looking more professional than 90% of the themes that our out.

I tested this on CM 4.0.1 extensively. Its perfectly safe if you have the proper rom. After the initial install, it may stay on G1 screen for a minute or two, just give it time and it should get to the animated boot screen after that.

Thanks! Going to continue making newer themes too hopefully once this thing is out of the way. I'm itching to make more now that I got the hang of themes again. No offense to anyone out there, but you can only have so many hero based themes. Rosie was pretty, but now she's just a common hooker it seems :[
omg freaking beautiful! ... GOTS TO HAVE IT

Theme look very nice
Good work
advanced launcher?
i dont think your theme comes with the advanced launcher, so im gonna post up a modified adv launcher to match the theme
Prash
Awsume
WOW keep up the good work your graphix are off the wall....
Finished flashing it
AWESOME!!!!!
Here's a themed adv launcher for who wants it
Please theme Music widget for those of us who dont use the HTC Music app
Suggestion: on the lock screen, maybe have the font a little darker to make a bigger contrast?
Can't wait for future versions seriously this is kick ass
EDIT: oh yeah also can you pleaseee theme calendar widget as well (not gunna mention settings widget since you already put it on your to-do list )

Next on the list of to do's are of course the widgets. Since those are .9.png files and I've been off my main computer for a while, I'll have to work on them when I can. I don't use htc music either, so everything themed will probably be the stock stuff.
Thanks for providing the advance launcher for others as well, I stopped using it when Cyan dropped it. I had cut down to 3 screens anyway and I didn't use folders.
Great looking theme. Runs smooth and haven't notice any slowdowns that I have noticed with some other themes.
I flashed the theme no problem but I cant flash the extra pack. any suggestions?
kinda of a noob question...but can some1 tell me how to install the extras on ma fone?
Excellent job....thanks
Excellent theme. You and MOONSPOON are changing the game (at least when gchrome is released).
It's also the first theme I flashed on 4.0.1 with no force closes (probably just my luck).
I think any personal request were previously addressed, so I'll just say can more of the icons be built in?
As far as the install question, you need WinRAR to open the file to changes the drawables and such, then you can replace the icons with the ones in the extras folder.
Going to try Advanced Launcher now. Thank you for posting that, I was just about to theme it as I read this.

There should be not a single force close issues as long as you're loading it on proper CM Rom. Believe me I made sure I tested it way too many times before I release any of my themes.
As far as other icons: yes more of them will be built in as they were in the rc33 version of this theme.
To use the extras: Do not flash it as an update.zip, its simply a zip file with an icons folder and a wallpapers folder.
The icons you can use if you have bettercut/anycut to manually change your system icons to match.
The wallpapers you can drop them in your sdcard and use it with the theme as any wallpaper. I suggest you download 'wallpaper set & save' from market, put them in /wallpapers/ folder and use the app to set it to get a non pixelated wallpaper.
I've added the frequent questions to post #2, people who have trouble with the extras zip file, check that.

How to MetaMorph/Theme

Credits for MetaMorph Go to Stericson and Kastro.
Credits for the MetaMorph Gui (The application) go to Stericson
Honorable mentions go to Riku, prash, and djengizz For continued support and testing metamorph!
MetaMorph is located in the Android Market in both a free version and a 2.99 donate version, with the donate version being a step ahead of the free version. (One version may be behind the other but they both will receive the same updates)
If youd like to support MetaMorph and keep development going on it please consider purchasing the 2.99 donate version
What MetaMorph is
MetaMorph is a project designed to allow us to patch files within .jar and .apk files on the phone.
Initially MetaMorph was designed for themers but it was discovered through use that we could also use it for applying customer dex files, resource files, images, and xml files. Pretty much anything inside of the apk and jar can be replaced with MetaMorph, which makes it very versatile and useful, in addition to this we can now copy files to places on the phone or sdcard, and we can implement the use of scripts now!
In this thread we will discuss how to theme using MetaMorph and any bugs that may be found with MetaMorph.
To use metamorph simply download an appropriate package for it to your sdcard and select it with MetaMorph.
Here is some basic info about MetaMorph:
Compatible themes can be found in various forms around the XDA forums, try looking by device. (eventually the donate version will get a theme repository, the free version wont get it)
I only recommend downloading what is in the first posts as those have been tested to work with your device and rom!
Please report any bugs.

Heres the link to videos showing metamorph in use:
Part1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xaTVRul-juY
Part2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqLuyeiM-Qo
Heres a quick video showing a metamorph theme being made from scratch using the old .thm control file! (which is not being supported anymore)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9y3ooUZZrg
MetaMorph uses a fairly simple format to apply changes to apk or jar files, here you can find out how to create these templates:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fX2xbY4nSd4 (Video 1/4)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dvps2501CAg (Video 2/4)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3iu5AHF-Zew (Video 3/4)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgVL-0E8Rh8 (Video 4/4)
To tell metamorph what to do you need to include a Theme Control File. The Theme control file is located in the root directory of the template and MUST have the EXACT same name as the template. Here is a video on how to make the Theme Control File:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mq4AuHKzNFo
(The old .thm control file is no longer supported. if you need to convert your old theme to use the new .xml toll check here for a tool that will convert it for you:
http://bit.ly/df70cv )
Compression is not accepted on MetaMorph zip templates.
The latest version of MetaMorph (MetaMorph Pro V1.9.8) can be found in the Android Market!
================================================================================
// MetaMorph, what it is and isn't
================================================================================
MetaMorph, at heart, is simply a program that takes files from a directory and adds them to an already existing zip package.
In this case, our zip packages are apk and jar files.
What metamorph is used for, or what it accomplishes by moving files around is completely up to the designer of the package that is used.
For instance, if I make a package that tells metamorph to move a dex file into services.jar then I may be wanting to change the color of the clock which resides on the status bar. If this happens then MetaMorph has not done this, the creator of the package has done this and metamorph was simply the tool he/you used to accomplish this easily. In the same sense, if the desired change does not happen it is most likely not because of metamorph, but rather a fault in the package or instructions that metamorph was given.
here are some things using metamorph can cause:
1) As of right now MetaMorph cannot be used on market apps. If you do happen to use a package that modifies market apps, they will disappear from your phones launcher menu. This is because market apps are signed with Developer keys and by changing them we are changing the md5sum of the package. When this occurs the package takes notice of this change and starts rechecking its integrity. When the package discovers it has changed and has not been resigned with its approved key, thereby approving these changes in a sense, then it will basically error out and Android will remove it. Again MetaMorph can be faulted because it cannot handle this type of action but it cannot be faulted for this if you do it after reading or knowing of this limitation.
2) MetaMorph may also show you and error that some file doesnt exist or that some file that the theme control file is looking for doesnt exist. Again while these errors are thrown by MetaMorph, they are not caused by MetaMorph but by the package that you selected. When MetaMorph runs it checks for two things:
A) That the directory that the theme control file has specified where
the contents that we are to move to another zip package actually
exists in the theme.
AND
B) That the target zip package that we will add files to actually
exists in the path that the theme control file has specified.
This protects the ap from Force closing, and the second check protects you from having unneeded files being created on your phone when it detects that the target apk doesn't exist.
If you have any issues with a theme/package not working please speak with the theme/package creator.
If you have issues, questions, or suggestion with/for MetaMorph please leave them here.
If you have questions about how MetaMorph can be used and how to create packages for it, please leave them here.
If you still have problems with a theme or package that cannot be resolved by the theme/package creator please let us know so that we can take a more in depth look into the issue.
=========================
HELP!
=========================
Theme not applying
The issue here is that your phone probably doesnt have enough space in your /system partition, you can check the space using "df" in a shell. (terminal or another like program)
Depending on the device you have you may need a different SPL to be able to apply themes.
MetaMorph is a tool designed to change files within apks and jars. With this goal in mind MetaMorph succeeds very well.
However, MetaMorph cant predict what you will do with it. The packages you apply with it are are unknown to MetaMorph, and it cant be held responsible for what you decide to apply.
With this being said, it is your responsibility to make sure that the package you apply will work for your phone, and it is the themers responsibility to let you know what requirements are needed to use his package, this includes free space, specific hardware, and specific software needed.
Thanks,
Stephen
some idea. include a ceck for andexplorer in your app like the check for zip binary
Good Idea, I may actually do that.....
Sweet, I'm going to have to give this a try... I hope the guys that develop themes jump on board this.
Hey, i cant get it to work. This is wht ive done
Installed the apk
Installed AndExplorer
Ran Metamorph, was asked to download zip. Said Yes, then said downloading for a minute then said "Somethings Wrong blah blah". FYI my wifi connection is FINE.

General Info​
I do not have a Nexus S to test this on, so I would appreciate it if someone could a.) alert me, preferably on twitter, when a new build is made, and b.) let me know if the theme I post here works.
This theme is extensive with over 2000 edited .png files and more than 35 .xml files.
There are no icons included with this theme. If you would like icons, then you can use ADW.Launcher or ADW EX download Minimalist - ADW Theme.
If you would like to donate to me for my work in this theme, then you can download the Donate version of the above mentioned theme. Search for "Minimalist Donate - ADW Theme" to find it.
If you would like to port this theme to any other device or use any part of it for your own doing, then you can download my images and edited .xml files from this post.
You do not have to ask me if you can port this or use any part of it. You do not have to credit me for any of my work in this theme.
I will not be checking this page frequently, but I will try to answer any questions posted here whenever I update the links. If you want a quicker answer, then I suggest saying something to me on Twitter (@david1171_).
This theme is for the official CM7 Nightly ROMs.
Theme Info​
The widgets are transparent with white text. I recommend using a dark wallpaper.
The font included in the theme is the Ubuntu font.
If you are using Amon_RA's recovery and the theme is not applying after flashing, then you need to use clockwork recovery.

Updated 02-09-2011 to contain custom application icon on rotary lockscreen.
Install Instructions: PLEASE READ!!!
1. Set MetaMorph delay to around 1000 (My exact number is 1054) then press Close
2. Press Unzip/Extract new theme
3. Navigate to where you have Minimalist_Lockscreen_Icons.zip located
4. Select the file
5. Press close on the on the pop up that appears
6. Press Apply all!
7. It WILL force close com.android.phone when it applies the Phone.apk, I do not know of any way around this.
8. While the force close pop up is on the screen, another pop up menu will appear behind the force close pop up and the buttons will say either Continue? or Stop; you must quickly press Force close on the force close pop up, then press Continue? on the other pop up menu; it will then start applying the framework-res.apk
9. The device may freeze up at this point, if it does freeze up (mine did), then wait about 30 seconds, then pull the battery and boot your phone
10. Everything should be applied now
Animations by rover.prince - http://bit.ly/iejwtm
I take no credit whatsoever for these animations.
I have taken them from rover.prince's theme at the request of some users.
Here is the thread where I got the animations.
Apply this with MetaMorph.
Very nice! Like it a lot, good work man
like this theme a lot. Is it possible to use default gingerbread look on the keyboard?
Thanks
Thanks for this! I was the one you emailed about this theme and the NS, and I'm really glad you made a version for this phone. It works without a hitch, and combined with the ADW theme you made, I now have a really good looking phone =)
Updated to cm_crespo_full-15.zip.
This has the new 2.2.11 version of the market in it, so if your market is still stock after flashing this theme, then you need to go to settings/applications/market and press uninstall updates.

Take the LatinIME.apk from /system/app/ of the Nightly build you are using and push/place in /system/app/ on your phone.
Code:
adb remount
adb shell stop
adb push LatinIME.apk /system/app/LatinIME.apk
adb shell reboot
or you can place it there with a file explorer with root access, but I recommend the above method as you stop your phone, so you shouldn't have to worry about any unnecessary force closes.
Updated to cm_crespo_full-16.zip.
would really appreciate if anyone is able to just get the pull down modifications as an update.zip?

Added Morph to OP for lockscreen icons for those that do not like completely transparent lockscreen. Please read the instructions and do exactly as they say.
Edit1: Also, I believe with the next release, I am going to restructure the way the links are set up in the OP. As it stands right now, it is an ineffective model that takes up a lot of unnecessary space. As anyone who follows me on twitter knows, when I mention my updates on there, I just link to a folder on media that contains folders of each supported device, then in that folder are the theme files for each device. If I go to just having a link to that main folder containing all the sub folders like I do on twitter, then I do not have to go about updating the links in 9 different threads with each release, and I do not have a space for old download files, since they can be gotten from the same place as the current download file. I think this method will make for a less cluttered OP, and save time overall.
Updated to cm_crespo_full-27.zip.
Working fine on 28, but you do lose the screen on/off animations....
mine works i had an issue with running spare parts on screen animations fast if u have that on turn it off should work then

[Theme][MetaMorph] Minimal White (1/29/11)

Theme created to be used by MetaMorph, please don't try to flash the file. The .zip is attached to the post.
(TL;DR)
I was trying to make a minimalistic theme for my phone without modding anything, but those green Gingerbread icons were cramping my style. So I went and made these simple manual modifications for just myself, because, surprisingly, I found them nowhere else online, so I'm releasing them packaged so they can be applied using MetaMorph.
I realize that the world does not in fact revolve around me, and that you guys use different applications/do different things, so that's why I intend to keep this "updated". Please request any icons and I will make them and add them in updates.
(/TL;DR)
(READ, YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT)
I've only used this package on Serendipity 4.3, but the icon files should be universal, however I will not make any promises. If you're brave enough, please test this on your phone and get back to me. I'll keep a list of compatible phones in the second post as well.
Also note that the LauncherPro dock and icons are not currently packaged with this theme. When I get to it (sometime later today/tomorrow), I will upload another zip with anything necessary for LauncherPro.
Same goes for my lockscreen. I'm using a modded WidgetLocker, and I will upload the files sometime later today or tomorrow, but I will not upload the APK, as it's a paid app.
I'll write up a tutorial on how to mod WidgetLocker in the third post.
(/r,yldoi)
The changelog can be found in the second post!
Currently themed:
Gmail (status icons only)
framework-res (most icons in status bar)
Vending (status icons only)
Here's a screenshot (more to come in later versions):

Tutorials
When you download the file, unzip it. It is not the MetaMorph zip, but it has the MetaMorph zip inside of it (MetaMorph zip folder).
Steps to do things:
Install font
Install MinimalisticText Widget
Install/customize LauncherPro
Install/customize WidgetLocker
Apply MetaMorph Theme
1. Install Font
The font.zip file is included in the Extras folder. Copy that to the root of your SD card any way you want...
1. ADB (Assuming you're on Unix based OS, if not, replace commands as necessary)
1. $ cd ~/[font.zip directory]/
2. $ adb push font.zip /sdcard/font.zip​2. Mount SD Card to Computer
1. Make sure USB Debugging is enabled. If not, 'Settings' > 'Applications' > 'Development' > 'USB debugging'
2. Right click/copy font.zip to root of the phone's internal SD card.​After font.zip is on your phone, boot into Clockwork Recovery and apply the zip file. Once that's done, reboot. Your font should be changed.​
2. Install MinimalisticText Widget
This one is easy. Go to the Market and download MinimalisticText. Then create the widgets that I have using it. I will not walk you through how to create widgets with MinimalisticText, as it's too complicated to type up. Trust me, you'll figure it out.​
3. Install/customize LauncherPro
If you do not already have LauncherPro installed, please do so now...
Once installed, put the LauncherPro dock and launcher icons inside of the DCIM folder on your internal SD card. You may also put the provided wallpaper there if you'd like to use it.
Editing the dock image:
On the home screen, press 'Preferences', then 'Appearance Settings'. 'Dock background' is the first option; select it.
Select 'Custom' and find the custom dock image. That's it!​Assigning custom launcher icons:
Long press the space on the dock that you would like to change. Then select 'Change shortcut' and change it to what action you would like completed. Then select 'Change icon', and select 'Custom icon'. Browse to the icon you'd like to use and select it. Your done!​
PS: To make the arrow on the left open the app drawer, long press it and press 'Change shortcut' and select 'App Drawer'.​
4. Install/customize WidgetLocker
This is a bit more in-depth. There's a perfect tutorial in this thread. The only thing that you must do is after you compile and sign the APK, uninstall WidgetLocker from your phone, then instead of putting 'com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk' in the /data/app/ folder, put it into /system/app. Otherwise, if you reboot your phone, it will disappear.​
5. Apply MetaMorph Theme
This one should be a given. Download and install MetaMorph, push the 'minimal-white.zip' to /sdcard/AndroidThemes, open MetaMorph and select the zip file as a new theme, then apply it. Be sure to apply framework-res.apk last! otherwise your phone may not install the other mods.​
More to come soon, probably

Any word on the newer serendipity versions? I have this theme running on 4.3 like you stated in the first post and I love it, but I'm going to update to 5.7 and would like to know if anyone has tried it

Sorry I stopped/never did really update this; I don't really have the time.
But to answer your question: yes! It should work on any Serendipity versions. I'm not currently running the theme, and have lost interest in using it, so I'm not going to flash it over my Serendipity 5.7.
Anyway, one thing that may help you realize that this will work: unlike CWM themes, this one only replaces/adds files that are going to be changed. If the file isn't changed, then it will not replace it. By that, I don't mean that it will replace framework-res.apk. I mean that it will only replace the files inside framework-res.apk, so if there's anything that Mikey added (for example, the rotary lockscreen), it won't be touched. Only the themed icons will be changed. Hope that makes sense
dowloading this theme!!! looks sick
screenshots are broken.
Alright thanks man. I tried it on serendipity 5.7 and its working just as it did on 4.3, and looks just as cool. Since it looks like your pictures on the first page arent working, here's what the status bar looks like, which is the only file I flashed, for anyone interested. Goes great with all the white on my homescreen.

[CM7][Theme]HoneyBread Alpha 4 [TABLET TWEAKED]

After i developed the tablet tweaks, a lot of people started modifying framework and systemui to exchange the buttons instead of doing it with a theme. the way they were going just was bad by design. no fixes are included except those people repeat their work with every new nightly build. thats the reason we use theme engine by now. it works for all devices and all versions.
my initial complaints about modifying those files and my suggestion to use a theme were ignored - so i came to the point to do it myself.
all i did was adding honeycomb icons for the soft buttons to the already existing honeybread v4 theme. as soon as there is a new honeybread theme, i hope it features the new buttons - at least i asked for that on the honeybread issue tracker.
get the modified theme here - it will show up with no preview by the name @string/theme_name in front of all your themes - i cannot help that bad behavior by now:
Honeybread-Alpha-V4-Tablet-Tweaked.apk md5sum: d70fb679d7b9d31a0006ed532156dfc7

if you wanna further modify the theme, i also uploaded the decompiled honeybread, including my changes and apktool.

Nice work murdock, and you're right the theme engine is A LOT better than changing each new systemUI. I've been planning on adding similar 3.0 soft buttons to my upcoming honeycomb theme chooser apk and have already gone pretty deep with changes to the status bar, power widget, settings icons etc., but I'm having trouble getting the 3.0 lockscreen and other things like my homescreen/app menu icons to show without supplying an additional zip file (which means ill either have to make a version for each rom, or a metamorph file that makes the apk kinda pointless when I could just add everything to the zip). Do you know if the theme engine is capable of adding the lockscreen or non-stock apps? I haven't been able to find very much out there yet about incorporating additional xml files to the apk, but if you could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it

do you have a tablet?
Morsed by hitting a plastic pipe with my Desire HD. Excuse typos.
Thanks, it looks great, however there are a couple of small problems I'm not sure if it should go into the honeybread issue tracker or here or if they are just caused by something I did wrong.
Quoted from the Tablet Tweak post since I'm having pretty much the same problems (looked a few pages down and no solution seems to have showed up, sorry if I missed it)

Ok, I figured out my issue -- honeybread theme doesn't play nice with the latest build. At least for me. It was causing widgets to fail at startup and my SDcard wouldn't mount unless triggered by something accessing it -- e.g. me opening file manager.
Restored a backup w/out honeybread - Flashed newest build - Rebooted 5 times -
No issues.
Installed honeybread apk - Rebooted a couple times -
No issues.
Applied honeybread theme - Rebooted - Widgets failed to load - SDcard doesn't mount unless triggered - Rebooted a few times -
Same behavior.
Applied default theme - Rebooted a few times
All is well.
Sorry, I know this isn't relevant to the mod, but I know a few people in here were starting to use honeybread, so I thought I'd report what I found.
Now I can start actually playing around with this build.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Just to add that the widgets do load eventually, but it's quite a long wait, and seems to happen after the SD card trigger.
Not a big problem since the only time I reboot is after flashing something in CWM anyway. Just wondering if this happens to everyone or just me.
Screen cap http://k.min.us/ikBN8o.png
Looks really nice other than the opaque black dock. Is there not any way to with Honeybread to have a translucent dock? Perhaps the answer is to disable the dock with this theme, but I still like to have one with my four most used apps (browser, email, gmail, and calendar).
Just loaded it on my G Tablet running CM7. Looks awesome. Thanks for your work on this.

with the t-mob theme engine, you can replace any graphic or xml file (animations, strings) below the res/ directory of each app. doesnt matter if its installed or could be installed. about the lockscreen - well - forget about it needs changed code to work like the hc lockscreen. no way to do this via themes. the lockscreen icons themself can of course be changed as you like..
download the sources i posted in first post and take a look into it - should be pretty much self explanatory

Thanks, it looks great, however there are a couple of small problems I'm not sure if it should go into the honeybread issue tracker or here or if they are just caused by something I did wrong.

honeybread issue tracker! i dont wanna get involved into this theme at all. i just added the soft buttons to stop people modifying the .apk files with winzip - which is really really bad...
Excuse my ignorance but I'm new to Nook and CM7, I downloaded the theme for the installation am I suppose to install via CWM > "install zip from sdcard" which fails "aborted" or am I suppose to drop it in a folder and change it using ADWLauncher?
Great
Hi
installed on my HD2 running a CM7 rom (Hyperdroid CM7 2.0.0)
all parts are themed
Nice work

How did you install it when I try to install it on my Nook from CWM I get the dreaded "ABORTED"
Roger
It's an apk so just copy it to sdcard and run it
The only problem i have with this, is that i only want the buttons. I am using a "Sense" theme that i love, and the buttons work great. If there was a way to have two different themes going, that would be nice (make the button one theme, and allow users to pick honeybread or something else)...

Thanks for the quick reply when I downloaded the file it was a .zip file renaming it to .apk enabled me to install it without errors but it does not show up under "Settings > ADWLauncher > Theme Preferences > Select your theme" any ideas? I rebooted and its still not listed.
Install Instructions
Download the Honeybread.apk
Install the APK
Open the Theme Chooser app
Select the Honybread Theme
After it applies reboot
Enjoy!
Thanks I was trying to use ADWLaucncher not Theme chooser to set the theme it worked, like I said I'm new to CM7 but with help from the community I'm learning.

Wow. Does no one read directions anymore?
Install the apk.
YOU MUST USE THEME CHOOSER
scroll all the way to the left. There won't be a pic, but a string. From mad (IN THE ORIGINAL POST)
"it will show up with no preview by the name @string/theme_name in front of all your themes"
Reboot.
Hey mad, you're pretty good at this whole android thing.
Just a tinsy tiny bug. The sliders in the gui have a slight offset line next to the slider button. No biggie, could just be my 190 dpi.
I'll change and report back if anything changes.
