Mine does too.
ahhhhhhhhhhh
What build are you using?
You gotta be careful with what build you are using and what you are changing.
Don't boot animations usually go into /system/media?
1.6 use shine and mask logos
2.x use Boot animations
They are different so...yeah...be careful.

This is true, but! Also their are two Apk's that always give problems when themed (Wrong). MetaMorph doesn't replace files that don't exist, meaning, if the two different roms have two different locations for boot files example: System/media or framework-res.apk/assets/images/ and neither are present. It will skip over both and not copy. So conclusions state that maybe one or more of the images are not accepted by the Android System.
These two apk's, my friends, are the framework-res.apk and the Launcher.apk...
Many of failed themes from the past proves this theory accurate, ask any old skool themer...
Worse case scenario, check the pictures with the (.9.png) extentions.
wow sorry i really lost rack of this thread sorry
i know specifically that the problem is cause by framework.apk and when i said boot animations i meant mask and shine.
p.s also im using latest build available in market

What Rom are you using? Cyan?
Who's MetaMorph theme are you using? Enoch?
Have you tried installing all of themes EXCEPT framework-res.apk to see if you still have the forecloses, or one by one to see which ones are causing the forecloses?
Some Homework:
If you want to test framework, try to remove all the foldes from the theme (make backups first). Add 1 folder back to theme, then run the MetaMorph cycle. Leave the png folders for last. When you reach a folder containing png's, add 3 png's at a time to each MetaMorph cycle. So now you narrow down the culprit(s) faster.
Example:
I am trying to MetaMorph my Zelda theme. My framework-res folder change, for some reason shuts down my Market on TheOfficial TMO rom. I can download, but when its about to install the apk it forecloses. But it works accurately on TheOfficial AOSP. (???) So, I am thinking that maybe it the way some roms are built.
im using cyan 4.2.15.1 with ebi1 port and im trying to metamorph the mask and shine at startup that writes to framework-res.apk

Would you be willing to flash my Zelda boot screen as a test to see if it is the theme. It might be the rom?
Here it is if you want to try:
i will flash yours and tell u the results and im currently on cyan 4.2.15.1 with bcrook's ebi1 port and enoch installed (via flashable zip)
edit: i cant even metamorph yours it says there isnt a valid thm file found? what does that mean?
edit2: nvm i figured it out u had an extra directory in the zip but i fixed
btw these themes do they have to be signed in a special way somehow like the zips or no
ps ur boot looks really nice
edit3 : still getting a million force closs after unlock so i wiped and restored

Your gonna have to flash the whole framework-res.apk as an update on the recovery to prevent FC's for now.

Finally!!!!! Working Themes using a Vending-2.2.7-signed-testkeys.update.zip FILE

Here it goes.
I have a G2 running Android 2.2.1 with CM 6.1.1
Vending.apk was originally 2.2.6 so I updated it to 2.2.7
Check version by going to Menu/Setting/Application/Manage applications/...
Look under Downloaded if not check under Running for Market. Click on it and check Market version (your version)
I tooked the Vending.apk file from Vending-2.2.7-signed-testkeys.update.zip and replaced it with the Vending.apk from Black_market_3.zip.
You can use 7zip,Winrar or any program that will access these files.
system/app/Vending.apk <- change this file.
Run BlackVending-2.2.7-signed-testkeys.update.zip on ROM Manager
Let you phone reboot check your market and let me know.
Over six themes have been tested and work.
I would like to Thank all developers and everyone that has made this possible. Thank you.
screen shots?
I recommend an explainer for blackmarket in the op. Most are unaware of it, imo. From us who do... nice work!
Wait a minute... if this blackmarket or the new market themed black, lol?
Nevermind... its just a themed market apk, oh well. Blackmarket is a warez related app so I better not bring it up nor would it be posted here. My bad...

if I am replacing vending.apk within Vending-2.2.7-signed-testkeys.update.zip, then wouldn't I be flashing that one instead?
Never mind. I figured out what you did...
Sidenote, can we not have this suitcase for an icon but have the original icon? That would be nice if it's possible...

I think he was just giving you an option for a themed one and regular 2.2.7... why there is a 3rd file is a mystery to me. In other words there are two black market apks that are the same version, lol! They are all 2.2.7... there is no need to flash one and then the other... very redundant...

There is no need to flash all three files.
BlackVending-2.2.7-signed-testkeys.update.zip is a working update with a black theme.
Vending-2.2.7-signed-testkeys.update.zip is just a normal udpate to 2.2.7
Black_market_3.zip is a update to a black theme market but, for some reason this file doesn't work for many.
Taking the Vending.apk file from Black_market_3.zip and copying/replacing the Vending.apk file from Vending-2.2.7-signed-testkeys.update.zip
I made a working BlackVending-2.2.7-signed-testkeys.update.zip files and others as well check the files below:

Android 4.0 SDK Dump

Thanks! Now to see what I can rip off and put on my incredible.
Is there any confirmed way to deodex the apps and framework? The latest smali/baksmali didn't work for me.
sdk dump. same as before..
Why do people keep posting SDK dumps? We all know where the SDK dump is available...
OP, please change the title to reflect that this is the SDK dump...
I just jumped into their irc channel to check if anyone had analyzed the reason for baksmali failing on the ICS odex files. It seems it was basically a function that had changed syntax, requiring several other changes but HomerSp sent me a working baksmali.jar. Smali then doesn't complain when compiling the result.
Unfortunately he went offline just after that so I'm not sure he would be ok with me posting it here so I won't. I'll write a script to deodex the files instead and upload the results if nobody else does so.
I was actually just curious about why it failed, didn't expect at working version just like that.
EDIT: Done and uploaded. Thanks again to HomerSp for the working baksmali.jar!
framework-deodexed.zip
app-deodexed.zip
NOTE: I just realized I forgot to fix the signatures so for the apps it will probably fail unless resigned. I leave that to someone else though. I have not verified that these are valid but as I said, at least smali didn't have a problem compiling them so they are hopefully ok.

First i will like to say thanks, great work, the APKs will still not install, it keeps saying "there is a problem parsing the package." Is there any fix???

As I said, they are not signed correctly as that would require me to remove the current signature files and resign them. I am currently sick so I didn't feel like doing it since anyone else could fix that if they wanted to.
To fix it, remove the META-INF folder from the apk and then sign it using jarsigner (part of Java JDK) or signapk. If you want to install them as normal apps you would need to make sure you pack any libs needed in the apk in a lib folder and then sign the apk using your own keystore. I mostly posted it in the hope that it would help someone make an SDK port though but use them however you like.

Deleted META-INF, signed the launcher via Kitchen & tried to install via ADB, getting error [INSTALLED FAILED - OLDER SDK]..
Any clue?

Yes, you need to change the minimum SDK version in AndroidManifest.xml to Gingerbread.
Code:
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="14"
android:targetSdkVersion="14"
>
</uses-sdk>
You need to change android:minSdkVersion="14" to 9 (for 2.3-2.3.2) or 10 (for 2.3.3-2.3.7). I have a feeling it probably won't work completely as it probably uses some ICS APIs.
The problem is that apktool doesn't work since it uses the non-working baksmali. Because of that, I don't know how to convert the file back to it's binary form.

The SDK doesn't include any live wallpapers other than a rotating wireframe cube.
So is anyone going to port the apps to gingerbread? I've seen them posted everywhere but so far no ports

I have already explained just a few posts earlier why it's currently not as easy to do as it normally is.
So no one can do it because the apk tool can't recompile it properly?

[REQUEST] OPO3 Music player

I need OnePlusOne3 stock Music player app, can someone upload it?
i second this. Anyone mind maybe pulling a backup of that app with Titanium or something?
Here you go
https://www.dropbox.com/s/947ug15klcqg00d/Music.zip?dl=0
This is not a flashable zip.
You need to extract and move the files to the system/app and change permissions accordingly..

It's the direct backup of the app from stock rom.
So, it's supposed to work only on the stock rom.
You should look for the ported one in the themes and apps thread. It might work with CM rom.

Try this " https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2aYS_xI_g-gRTRwdW43ZklKTFU/view?usp=drives "
Has no one actually considered decompiling the apk? It's likely juts got a command somewhere saying it can't install or work on anything that isn't an op3, remove that and recompile
It's most likely crashing due to the missing libs files. If anyone can help me find the appropriate lib files, I might be able to get it to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
