Gentlemen...... Behold!
...SHADES OF YELLOW...
After much studying and learning, I have made this yellow theme for myself and decided to release it to others to share.
***THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS***
This is only tested on existz' aospX rom for HTC Desire HD/Inspire 4G. The icons and xml edits are all there though, so if you are adventurous go ahead and decompile and use em.
ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS DO A NANDROID BACKUP!!! NO EXCUSES!

Please remember, I am doing this theme for me and my wife's personal use, and am only sharing with the community because I feel that it should be shared. I also work 50+ hours a week, so I will work on this as much as I can.
Other colors will follow as well.
TO-DO:
-finish theming the System UI and Frameworks
-theme the Google Apps
-theme all system apps
-anything else blue, gotta go.
-make more colors. NEXT UP IS PURPLE (wife's request )

DOWNLOADS
THE FILES:
framework-res
SystemUI
Instructions:
BACK YOUR PHONE THE EFF UP!!!!
Use adb to push the two files to your phone via USB:
1. adb remount
2. adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
3. adb push SystemUI.apk /system/app
4. adb shell chmod 0644 /system/app/SystemUI.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
5. adb reboot
or
Use root explorer on phone (or another similar file explorer):
1. Get files to sd card
2. copy them to the system folder of device
3. change permissions to rw-r-r
4. move framework-res.apk to /system/framework and overwrite existing one
5. move SystemUI.apk to /system/app and overwrite existing one
6. reboot
any problems, let me know i will try to help.
THE ICONS:
Icons are called Token and I found them on Google... not mine. Just replaced each icon manually using the Nova launcher.
Token dark icons
THE WIDGET:
Widget is just Minimalistic Text widget found on the Google Play Store for free.
Pop this preference file in /sdcard/MinimalisticTextPreferences and restore it in settings, if you want the same widget:
Yellow ICS Clock
THE FONT:
The font in the Minimalistic Text widget is the ICS Android clock font. You will need to have it in your fonts folder (if you don't have one, just make one) and then in MT go to global settings and set the font folder to the one you made.
ICS Clock font
CHANGELOG
3/23/12: Initial Release.
Looking very nice. On an aokp rom for the mytouch4g so I doubt it would work but looking very nice

So if I only push the framework and UI it will theme my status bar, keyboard, and such? Or do I have to install the icons too?
Sent from here using magic air wires.
Ya the icons are separate.
OK I am having second thoughts on sharing this right now... maybe I'll put this back up in the future but for now I am closing this thread.
Why close it?
I'm gonna try and see if this will work on CM9 on my sgs

Here is a HTC Froyo Sense theme for the Huawei Ascend.
Must have root permissions
Version 0.5
Download: View attachment HTCFroyoAscend.zip (metamorph)
Make clock white after install:
After you reboot, open Root Explorer.
With root explorer, browse to /system/build.prop.
Long tap on build.prop and select Open in Text Editor.
Scroll down and find hw_customizetype=01 and change it to hw_customizetype=02.
Save your changes and reboot.
Or simply download and replace the build.prop with the one that is attached to this thread.

Does this theme run smooth? And with what launcher does it work with?
Sent from my M860 using XDA App
Yes, it runs the same its just a theme. It's not like a theme in windows. This just replaces stock images that is on the phone. Any launcher works.

Resore the Nand backup that you made right before installing this theme If you use ZipThemer to install themes instead of MetaMorph, it has a much less painful "undo" feature.
OP, I've attached an updated version of the theme that also installs build.prop into /system/. Note that in this updated version, everything is in the root of the zip file instead of inside the HTCFroyoAscend directory (required for compatibility with ZipThemer).
And that comment in the <useless> tag looks awfully familiar, just like the one I put in my HtcBlackStatusBar theme for the Eris
Ken
what nand back up????????
I actually used your xml file, was to lazy to recreate it since I was using your theme as a reference. Hope that's ok =] the rest I did =] thanks!
With the newly packed theme, It's strictly for cricKet users now. Ill repack one for MetroPCS users when I get home.

I accidently activated the theme using metamorph without making a back up. What can i do if i want to revert back?
Well I used metamorph to install the theme and it looks good...but my notification bar didn't change to black. Only black boxes around my 3G, signal, and battery. Did I do something wrong?
Sent from my M860 using XDA App
If the notifican bar has black around the icons on it the bar has changed to black,its not showing up because the buildprop file needs to be edited. Use root explorer and long press the buildprop file and open it in text editor,find hw_customizetype=01 and change it to hw_customizetype=02 save changes exit and reboot.
Thanks dude. Works great now. Looks awesome

Thanks for your reply.
How did you manage to modify it, by replacing the .png's using winrar (keeping the apk intact) ?

Hey,
rename the .apk to .zip extract the res folder modify png's as required, then drag res folder back to the zip, overwriting the orig'
then change .zip back to .apk & sign with apk manager
Just a heads up tho... you might be better off using the honeycomb theme as a base, as the classic theme will shrink your icons, unless you delete certain png's, not at home at the mo' so can't check which 1's
Thanks for your reply.
Still could not get this to work,
Im using autosign to sign the APK,
You it just says "application not installed"
Not really sure what im doing wrong with it

What go launcher theme r u using?
Noticon v1.0
This is my first noobish try to build something useful for the community of o2x.
Most of the work is placed in icons along the notification bar, pull down menu and some screens such as usb alert screen. There are 5 different versions of Noticon with different notification bars and toggle buttons (see below for pics). This theme also includes the BPM of Malicious Ken.
(FR19 ready)
Credits: Malicous Ken (XDA) & Agekalp(MyPhone)
Istallation guide:
BACKUP first...
Download .zip and place it in your external card
Start phone (Vol. down+Power button) and enter CWM
Find your way to the zip you placed in external card
Install zip from CWM's options
ps: im not responsible for any damage you may cause to your hard/software
Pics:
Notification icons (standar in all versions).
Icons like GPS,WIFI,2G/3G are transparent and shinny gloss when their bar(s) is/are empty)

Is there no other workaround to get the transparent effect on not.bar other than using live wallpaper?
As far as i know... nop :-(
Send from my LG990 using Smoke signals
nice, but i´m quite sure it will NOT work on cm ...
Cm doesn´t use lge-res.apk, you have to theme framework-res.apk & sustemUI.apk instead ...
(or cyanbread.apk if you want to make it available in theme chooser ...)
but nice work anyway !
i didnt know that, thnx for the info markus, ill edit my post.
When ill jump to CM (stable) roms ill fix it too
hi how do install it in to my phone? sorry just got my android 2 days ago
anyways, good work !

thx for the mod status bar and notification zarras work 100% on Arc Launcher
transparan 100% work
only small bug i see . when charging the transparant gone into black
good job
Awesome zarras!
Thank you for your effort to to this.
But could you please offer some other icons in your framework cause i hate those colorful ones
I got you a PM cuz I couldnt post links ´... post leak >.>
or could you tell me (or give me a link to a tutorial) how to create that myself
Thanks, Martin
Hey MoFosis, i saw your links and its a great minimalistic work. Unfortunately atm i dont have much time to spare on this, but i'll keep it in my mind for a future use.
The file packages you have to edit is framework-res.apk & lge-res.apk.
They are located in /system/framework directory. Copy them --> PC, and then open them with 7zip. Your targets are
\system\framework\framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi\
\system\framework\lge-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi\
In those folders you will find all the icons you need to change
When you are done you copy them back into your phone's /system/framework (adjust permissions is needed use Root explorer or similar)
Ok I'll try my best!
Thank you.

Splash Screens are in the 1st Post
Sense 3.5 Mods are in the 2nd Post
CM7 mods are in the 3rd Post
Splash Screens
To change your splash screen - ( I know there might be simpler and possibly better ways to do this, but I like doing it this way and so am posting it here). Before doing this copy paste any of the splash screen files to the tools folder in your android sdk folder.
1. Restart your device in bootloader mode
2. Connect your usb
3. Start fastboot mode. Make sure you are in fastboot usb
4. Start up command prompt
6. Navigate to your android sdk folder (Using cd ... etc)
7.
Code:
cd tools
8.
Code:
fastboot flash splash1 {name of splash image}.img
fastboot reboot
Note: If you are getting an AdbWinApi.dll error. Just copy paste the one in your platform-tools folder to your tools folder

Sense 3.5 mods
Some mods I have put together for the Sense 3.5. I have tried to keep the look as much stock as possible changing only some parts to give it a more pleasing look. This is still very much a WIP. I am not gonna make a theme out of it as lots of the parts are borrowed, but I will not say no to sharing.
Most of the icons on top are from MIUI, The battery is from elegant blues by he_stheone64
Download and push to system/framework/framework-res.apk
Download
Download and push to /system/app/SystemUI.apk
Download
Download and push to /system/app/Settings.apk
Download
I have changed the system icons as well. The icons are from the faenza pack. And I will upload based on requests. I am posting a few here just for starters.
If you want to change a system icon just pull the file from either system/app or data/app change ic_launcher_'app_name".png or icon.png or 'app_name'.png

System Mods
This one is quite a work in progress. Will be modified a lot in the next few days. I am combining a lot of slate and light blue elements. Would have made an apk for theme manager but I am modifying the lockscreen too and theme manager doesn't handle that. (Atleast thats what uot tells me)

With cm7 you have to put the animations in /system/media/ . With sense you use /data/local/ . Also in sense you have to rename the file to htc_bootanimation.zip and htc_downanimation.zip
If the above two areas dont work, you can also try /system/customize/resources/
Hi.
This is tutorial "how to make themes to QQLauncher". It's pretty easy
What you need:
- Android 1.5+ phone
- QQLauncher
- 7-Zip
- Notepad++
- Photoshop, GIMP or whatever you like for resizing pngs
-----------------------------------
1. First you need to install QQLauncher (like a normal app).
2. Then download theme from online gallery (follow menu button -> Theme -> Theme gallery -> choose one of themes, i.e. "复古印象"), but don't apply it!
3. Now connect your phone to computer and navigate to "sdcard/QQLauncher". You need to copy "log.log" file and theme (with strange chinesse name) from "theme" folder to your desktop.
4. Open your "log.log" file with Notepad++ and you'll see lines like these:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- in blue square there is app name
- in yellow app package name (like in "data/app")
- in red app activity name - we need this to name icon
5. Find icon which you want to add (if you need to resize it, there are recommended sizes <because QQLauncher doesn't support icon scalling>: for HDPI 86x86 to 90x90 and MDPI 53x53 to 65x65) and rename it to this "com.cih.gamecih2.gamecih" (you need to write all name in lowercase, otherwise it won't work!)
6. Open your theme file with 7-Zip and copy icon to "icons" folder.
7. If you want to have other dockbar background, you need to replace "dock_bg.png" file in "icons" folder.
8. If you want to have other app background for apps without definied icons, you need to replace "appbackground.png" file in "icons" folder.
9. Copy your theme file to "sdcard/QQLauncher/theme" and apply it in Theme gallery
----------------------------
If you have any questions or suggestions to this tutorial, just write me on PM
Amazing !! Thx a lot, i'll try this week end.
Thanks!
8.1 if you wanna change folder icon put image called folder.png
Okay, i want to theme the ChompSMS icon, so i just isntalled it, but in the log.log file, I cant even find chompsms, so what should i do. Ill attach my log.log file
Hmmm, I don't see it in your log file. Try to find apk file in "data/app" and then search for it in log
Nexus Prime - Tapatalk
@supetawesomedude you said you just installed it, you have to reboot after install to update log, so just reboot then browse your log
@supetawesomedude, just delete log.log file and then restart launcher, I will generate with these app you have got

Not working for me
Anyone mind taking a stab at making a theme using the icons (with permission from teh OP) from here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1225629
What the hell, I've added many icons to my own personal theme and I have correctly named, replaced, resized, compressed, and then I renamed the zip file to 圆润有爱 and then placed in the qqlauncher. then i try to apply it, and it gives my some kind of error in chinse. I have no idea what to do, ill attach my 圆润有爱.zip as a link to mediafire. http://www.mediafire.com/?693bt619sdg4iq9
You've choosen another theme you are working on NOW first?
So apply other theme, mount USB, put file in QQlauncher/theme
and then unmount USB, go to themes and apply the new one?
Or?
add the right appbackground.png for my theme
