while hunting for some customized themes for the zio i have run across uot kitchen. for those of us who have not progressed to creating our own themes yet this can help you customize one for you. it is super simple. you upload your framework-res.apk and it will allow you to add their boot animations, fonts, icons plus more. once you have selected what you want it takes about a min or two and it has a custom zip signed and ready to download.

No it wasnt.
I took an icon pack and png files for icons and battery status from elements of UOT kitchen, but I hard coded the theme myself.

I have created and tried a dozen or so themes so far and everyone has worked. Maybe you did something wrong not uot kitchen?
Well uot kitchen has had several updates recently.

To make the UOT Zips flashable you must take the com folder from META-INF out of the zip from UOT Kitchen and replace it with the com folder from META-INF openZIO 1.0 Theme. The flash needs the correct update-script which UOT doesn't give us. But if you replace it with the com folder in META-INF from the openZio theme it will flash.

okay here is one made from uot kitchen and for those who say you have to change the zip yall have done something wrong. this is just as it was sent from uot.
I'm not doing anything wrong. The UOT Pick up website has a thing that tells you how to fix errors on it. I got a Status 0 error which the website says to replace the updater-script, which in our phones case is update-script. I fed it framework-res.apk just like it said. Maybe you weren't running the openzio theme? Just sayin, don't be so fast to be like you're wrong.

when you upload your framwork-res.apk on the left side you have a few options that need to be changed. the fist one is edify scripting or amend scripting. choose amend second turn off theme chooser preview. last if you do a bootanimation make sure you use the sense rom option and not froyo default option. Also I did it both using the openzio theme and stock. try it and if that does not work let me know i will almost bet that will solve your issues. last didnt mean to make you think i am rude about what how or what i have posted.

Well clockworkmod 2.5.1.1 does work with updater-scripts and binaries. If you edify it should work amend gave me issues.
Sent from my Zio using XDA App
All themes I've made, I've wrote using update-script.
updater-script _does_ work with 2.5.1, but I have had a 50% success rate with it - update-script has yielded 100% success.
I followed what jlmancuso said and it works perfect everytime

IHTFP69 was nice enough to prepare a hot boot patch for us Virtuous users. This is based on version 3.1 - flash at your own risk. Don't forget to nandroid first!!! Flash in Clockwork Mod and you'll have reboot in your power menu with 4 options (Recovery, Bootloader, Normal and Hot Boot).

I use the hot reboot all the time and it works in the HD rom.
Redemption Revolution has a working hot reboot. Believe Redemption ROM does too. Ask Lou.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
You can buy it on the market, or use SkyRaider3.3 which has hibernate as well. I go back and forth between SR and stock with the 3-in-1 reboot feature and the hot reboot from the market.
That thread you posted worked great. Any idea how to change up the icons?
If I were to supply the icons, would someone be able to swap them out? I'm assuming the icons are embedded in the jar file... if anyone can guide on where I can find out how to edit the jar file, I'd appreciate it. The jar file is all that I am pushing to my phone and the icons are still changing on the power menu so they must be in there somewhere.
Help a guy learn! ;p
The actual system icons are only in framework-res.apk and no where else. For Sense roms, there are also some in com.htc.resources.apk. There are only references to them in the framework (jar) files.
Holy ****... how in the hell is it possible that flashing that hotboot zip in the thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=792542
I flashed that and all of my icons were different... black and white only and different graphics. I'll post a screenshot shortly.
Here we go.. Is the jar file maybe referencing different png files?
Edit: can't upload this format. I'll convert it when I'm on the computer.

Ok here is one of my all time favorite themes, NexTheme!
This is for CM7 posted at 6/1/11 - 10:40PM in the CM7 thread.
Currently it's only the Framework, SystemUI and Settings. (which themes most of the phone)
I will be going through and theming the apps later this week (crazy busy at work this week but I'm trying to have the apps done by the weekend). If anyone here has seen my work on the OG Droid you will know I'm very detailed and have added quite a bit that the original theme did not have so stayed tuned.
If you find anything missing please let me know so I can update it, (not the apps of course at this point). Oh yeah I threw some old school animations in it as well.
As always please make a backup just in case.
This is a .zip file and installs like any other .zip, just don't wipe when flashing.
Let me know what you think so far, good, bad or indifferent.

Saved for update.
And one more just in case.

I will get some up tonight. But just so you know NexTheme is based off stock HTC.
working on one
i have a blue version and a purple version of "nextheme" that I am uploading righ t now. Hopefully I'll be able to post links and photos...
The way I "theme" is basically just the entire rom and the theme chooser to make it more complete. Seems like the theme chooser won't theme everything.
if anyone is interested....

Alright here it is. Pull whatever you want from it. Everything is here apps framework exct. You could take this drop it on your phone and flash it if you want.
The standard drop on SD card flash via Rom Manager.
But i would love for someone to just take the framework for system and apps and put it on a Tmobile theme engine.

I think some people are working on them, but 2.0 just came out a few days ago, they most likely need a little bit of time to produce a quality theme.

here you go just copy your framework res apk to your desktop and upload that to the kitchen and then pick and chose what you want to change. Once that is done submit to the kitchen and wait a few mins then pick up your flashable zip file to flash in cwm.

Download ZIP

You can integrate this theme pack in your ROM/Theme, if you want.

This looks awesome, but I seem to not fully understand the instructions. Do I go into system>framework then extract framework-res.apk to replace the existing folders with those in your zip?

Yes.. First, decompile your framework-res.apk and then overwrite the files on framework-res.apk with the files from the zip and recompile it after they are replaced.. And then put the modded one back..
i wish that may help you..

Info please? What you want to port? Actually 90% of framework and systemUI changes requred. Just don't create a thread without info.
I could say can anybody make me a custom rom? If I don't say anything, nobody will do it. And because xda isn't about requesting, nobody would do it even if I ask with info.

U just have to upload systemui.apk, framework-res.apk and optionally a theme chooser theme.apk and u get a flashable zip to download
