[MetaMorph] Gingerbread for CM 6+ - G1 Themes and Wallpapers

I "ported" (very little work by me) Krispy's Metamorph for the GSM Hero to the G1, so that we may have a Gingerbread looking theme. I also included the animations and color folder from gingerbread which he didn't have included. The pictures are from Krispy's page, as they are essentially the same theme.

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This changes the fonts, animations, and framework images to gingerbread style.
Use metamorph to flash this, and then use CyanogenMod settings -> User Interface to change the Clock, Date, and Notifications ticker to white.
Update 1.1: Added Krispy's changes.
v1.1 now has both animation- and theme-packages in seperate metamorph directories. That way you can choose whether you want those animations or not ... or just the animations Also it has cleaned up contactframes (aka they be gone now) as well as cleaned up waiting spinners (no more jagged edges there).

Update 1.2: Added Browser and Dialer images, and a few animation .xmls that were missing (none that will likely see)
Update 1.3: Added dark menus (when menu button is pressed)

Enjoy

What animations would these be, IE the orange light border when you hit the start/end of a menu etc.
Would this work on the Hero also, i thinking kind of yes :S

i'm not necessarily sure exactly which they would be. I used to have animations off, and it's been awhile since i've seen the old ones.
But for sure, the animations of when you unlock the screen and when a menu pops up are different.
Also when a menu pops up (flys up in a semi circle from the bottom right corner), the background fades out over a few seconds, that may or may not have been there before because I was never looking for it, but I think that's new too.
To answer your other question, this probably will work on the hero also, and probably any mdpi device that is running Froyo, but i'm not going to make any promises due to me not having a Hero!

As with Krispys Metamorph, installs the fonts but not the framework-res
tried it 3 times now, its strange some people can get it to work some cant :S

Interesting.. Metamorph needs 1 Root, 2 Busybox, 3 adequate space on /system, 4 proper naming. might be something else you need, but check all those. Try using Titanium Backup to re-install busybox
Also try applying the framework-res individually instead of Apply All, if you haven't do that already

Pretty sure it will be the busybox, im trying from a fresh install, trying to get this theme to work before i bother re-installing my apps from titanuim backup, ill reboot install titanium backup(busybox) retry and report, iv got over 100mb in both phone and SD card
EDIT: With a fresh busybox install from titanium backup same thing happends
Could you nicely provide you framework-res in a .apk so i can push it with root explorer please,
Ask this as you got the nice animations

i can't send you a framework-res.apk because I don't have a hero sorry.
and i don't know if changing the custom pull downbar would cause bootloops, because i've had no need to change the color since this makes it black

I just compiled this and didn't have time to check it on my phone. So who ever wants to be brave can test it out first. It wont bootloop your phone or anything, but still.
Anyways make sure you make a backup before doing this. I didn't make a flashable zip for this so just do this using root explorer:
1. Go to /system/apps
2. Copy Systemui.apk and paste it on your sd card as systemui.apk.backup
3. Put the new systemui.apk on your sd card.
4. Copy the new systemui.apk to /system/apps
5. Press okay to overwrite the old one
6. reboot phone
Also make sure you mount r/w using root explorer before you paste or it won't allow you to.
Probably worth mentioning this is for deodexed ROMs only.
idk about that. Works fine for my phone and its odexed.
but this is for stock roms, as mine is stock. idk about custom roms.
Really? I'm new to things, so I'm genuinely curious, how were you able to make the change? I thought if you're odexed you have to deodex > decompile > make changes > recompile > odex in order to mod stuff.
If you're only changing xmls are you able to skip steps? You still have to decompile and recompile to regenerate resources.arsc, right?
Sorry, just learning where I can.

yea I wasn't sure about it either, but I just went and grabbed systemui from my phone, decompiled it, edited status_bar.xml, added images to hdpi folder, and recompiled it. Then used root explorer to replace the original systemui.
And ya you have to delete the original resources.arsc when recompiling. I'm learning as well and was asked to share this so I did. I'm not 100% sure if it will work for others but technically it should if it worked for me.
That's great to know. I've been deodexing and odexing every time I changed something. Now I only have to do it when actual code changes are involved. You just cut my work in half lol.
yea i think you only need to deodex when you modify the actual jar files.
I tried this mod but after adb push it my status bar was gone swipe down and nothing, tried root explorer and the same thing, I had to push back the original one.
I'm using this by the way, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1282415
By the way I just read this:

attempted this using Root Explorer, rebooted and its missing a status bar/notification menu completely(even swipe down doesn't work). i noticed the permissions were wrong, so i fixed that & rebooted. still no luck. re-applied the old file for now. curious if this is working for anyone & what their config is?

I uploaded my file now. The one that I have tested and works. The one I use. Meaning it will have the arch linux logo in the left hand corner.
If anyone that wants to change the logo to something else, follow the tutorial link in the original post. all you will have to do is decompile it and replace the logo with something else in hdpi folder and then recompile.
and yes that is my screen atm.
Still not working.

for those thatt are running the lockscreen/taskbar/overscroll mod...will flashing this taskbar break everything else? Id love to have this instead of the taskbar included in that mod, but with all of the other tweaks.
What is the process to just add this to a theme? I dont want my status bar to change from the theme I am using. I just want the clock in the middle. Anyone wanna let me know what the process is to do this by myself rather than using OPs SystemUI file.
Im running starburst rom v1.5
will all the status bar mods be lost if push this system ui? My noob thoughts are yes but not sure.
thanks in advance

[VRTHEME][JB 4.1.2][SecMms.apk] Messaging text bubbles & emoticons

Following on from my ICS Messaging text bubbles & emoticons for stock or stock based ICS roms thread, I've made a VRTheme for that uses five bubble styles together with the HTC Emoticons for JellyBean roms.
Flash this VRTheme via CWM to replace just the sms bubbles & emoticons in the stock (and stock based) JellyBean (4.1.2) Samsung messaging app. (SecMms.apk). It will not change the text colour.
Unlike in my old thread, I cannot take requests for alternative bubble or emoticon styles but feel free to swap any pngs yourselves (make sure your bubbles are named correctly as they're different to the ICS file names)
If you're unsure whether it will work on your rom, make sure the path to SecMms.apk is \preload\symlink\system\app\SecMms.apk and take a backup first.

This happens sometimes as it's free hosting and therefore not 100% reliable.

If you're rooted, I can't see why it doesn't work.
Two ways to check:
Do you have a vrtheme-backup folder on your sd card?
If so, does it have \preload\symlink\system\app\SecMms.apk inside it?
If not, the flash was unsuccessful.

[mod] Get rid of qslides in notification

Hi, this is a fairly advanced topic, I'm not providing a nice little cwm file for you to "apply" or "revert" so you gotta know what you're doing. Namely, you'll need to know how to type some commands via adb and be rooted.
I'm providing two CWM files that you can flash over odexed or deodexed LG Optimus G Pro ROMs. Simply put these in your sdcard, use the 2nd init recovery to reboot into recovery, then apply and reboot.
Props to mateo1111 and lv4n35. I used their contribution for "pointers"
Enjoy your reclaimed notification slide down real estate.
worked great, thanks!
i think i already asked but could you look into removing the at&t text from the statusbar? also making all the text color holo blue? i believe all of this is in the systemUI.
Worked on mine as well. Thanks for putting this together!

once and if we get the bootloader unlocked, then it would make sense to provide cwm files that you can apply and revert easily. if someone packages this file in a cwm file in the meantime that you can flash via 2nd init, then I'll post it in the OP.
Edit: found the time to push two cwm files in the OP

Correct. You have to be rooted and be using a root-level file explorer. (I like Root Browser Lite by JRummy Apps)

The demand for this mod is more than I initially anticipated. You guys made me feel bad :silly: so I'm providing two little nice CWM flashable files in the OP. This should now work on odexed or deodexed ROMs. Guys with international PRO variants, you can try these files too. Worse case is that you'll have to flash back to stock using LGFlashTools given that we have no recovery to fix stuff from a soft brick yet.

Thanks so much for all of your hard work! I figured pushing via file explorer was easier than ADB push (especially for people like me with little command line experience) so I decided to make myself a guinea pig and test that method.

It works in most cases but sometimes when the status bar UI restarts before you reboot, it might cause some corruption in the dalvik-cache and give you all kind of weird sh*t when you reboot. That's why I like to either do things in recovery, clean dalvik and reboot, or "stop" the OS, do my stuff in adb, and reboot. In any case, I just tested the cwm "hide" file in the OP and it works indeed It should be be pretty easy to flash this mod now.

The demand for this mod is more than I initially anticipated. You guys made me feel bad :silly: so I'm providing two little nice CWM flashable files in the OP. This should now work on odexed or deodexed ROMs. Guys with international PRO variants, you can try these files too. Worse case is that you'll have to flash back to stock using LGFlashTools given that we have no recovery to fix stuff from a soft brick yet.

Ok... You partially edited your OP, but you should also remove the download links and change Subject from "How To" to [REQ]. People will update their SystemUI and this will negatively affect many other icons & things.
And if anyone wants to try this (as the OP hasnt) rename original SystemUI to a .bak

I've already done this (but i didnt follow the OP's guide) and it works. Just gotta decompile your own SystemUI.apk and replace the pngs as well as the xml that draws the batter icons.

Try attached zip. REMEMBER TO MAKE A NANDROID
Just flash in recovery.
Just got back in town... anyone try flashing this zip? Or am I currently committing the act of guinea pig? lol
UPDATE:
Works like a champ. I already modded my statusbar to be transparent. This battery looks great on it.

Are you talking about the one i made? And statusbar seems to go transparent if you are in the TouchWiz launcher or on the locksceen by default too. I also modded my own to allow me to "Swipe away" the stupid battery full notification.

I had a feeling that might happen. It happens when things aren't signed. Let me try to sign the apk for you and see if it works. It may just do the same thing. But its worth a shot.
Flash attached zip again in recovery. Restore your nandroid first though.

Yes I do. It's signature verification. It checks the certificates of the apk and since they are different then original, it denies that app all permissions, which it needs in order to run. So flashing the modded apk, then factory reset, should reset the "stored" signatures.

Factory reset and still no working,
I was playing and i was able to create SystemUI.apk that show the Circle battery in the phone but the % are not working (go from 100 to 87, 71, 57 etc) . I change the sys_bat and the sys_bat_charg xml to 1% but nothing,
If you don't mind can I post the apk for you to check what i did wrong?
Thanks in advace for all you help.:good:

So factory reset fixed the no status bar issue AND SystemUI force close issue? But the percentages aren't working?
Can you post a screenshot?
I was on evil1art modded mdl rom. I had flashed the transparent status bar mod. Then I flashed your first zip. I had no issues & it is still working fine. Hope this helps your trouble shooting.

[MOD]Get rid of carrier label

Got tired of that big AT&T label on my statusbar.
Download to sdcard and use the 2nd init recovery to reboot into recovery, then apply and reboot. I used madmack's qslide flashable as a base so it should work fine. I personally just use root explorer and move apks directly because I dont use this recovery.
Should work on odexed or deodexed LG Optimus G Pro ROMs.

I don't see why not. You'd have to rename all the images to match what lg is using.
hello, striking out trying to install this. 1st tried twrp, can't get it to install so i figure i'll use root explorer and switch the systemui.apk, but can't seem to find where that is on this phone, it's not showing up under system/
any ideas?

He said to use 2 int recovery thats different from twrp. Think theres a thread in one of the lg threads on how to do that.

You're welcome . Apparently, they've gone and given it their own naming scheme.
If you look in the zip, it looks like it's simply swapping out the status_bar.xml within the res/layout/ of LGSystemUI.apk. It's been a while since I've done any xml edits for system apps, but you might be able to simply insert that modified xml into the existing apk. Might also be wise to save a backup of the original.

thanks, that's the one i used as well, i flashed it and then downloaded the twrp manager app from the play store to access it. the problem seems to be with this, when i go to flash the zip, the app tries to flash but it then goes back to the main twrp interface, it hangs there for several minutes, the screen goes dark, i hit the power button and the screen comes on but stuck on the twrp lock screen and the swiper does not work. i have to do a long press on the power button to get the phone to restart.
i'll either have to ask about this in the twrp thread, drop the attempt all-together, or use the lg tool to reflash the stock rom and start over.
