If you guys don't mind, have a look at the themes in my sig. I've been considering porting (or re-create, rather) them, since I got my MT4G but I didn't like the device enough to bother. My favorite has been the LBP theme since I had so much fun making the icons. I'll likely create an icon pack for Nova/Apex for the icons but I was considering something cool for the toogles and such too.
If there's any interest, I'll recreate these for the GS3.
Sure sounds good

Yep. I been using Android since way back then lol. I'd be creating all the images from scratch, of course. No sense trying to port such low-res junk to the GS3.
I did not see any of the themes in your sig but after doing some searching I found them and I have to say that the LBP one you did looked sweet man. I know I would be happy to see them. Thank you for the heads up. :good:

Sorry about that. I took them out of my signature about a week ago. I'm getting myself up to speed with the Theme Engine (as my old ones were flashable .ZIPs). In the mean time I'm working on icons. I'd like to release something for the various launchers (Go Launcher, Apex, Nova, etc) along with Theme Engine.
Thank you for the update. Will keep checking back!:thumbup:

For some reason I really like that launcher bar at the bottom of Fresh 0.5.3. But I'm curious to take another ROM for a spin just for the fun of it.
Is there a file or theme that I can use to put that launcher back? I can't seem to find one, but thought I'd ask to be sure.
TIA
Take it out of development and go into General or Q&A.
Search the market for launchers.
But I think this would be a development issue. It's a matter of if anybody else out there has noticed a mod or .zip that somebody has developed that changes only the style of the launcher bar. Not looking for ADW, ahome, or or another launcher apk. Just a .zip file. Just a random shot in the dark to the forum.
If it helps that bar is from espresso ui

It is a Metamorph, look it up on the market, or better yet, here on xda. basically it is an easy way to theme your phone.
I use to use fresh only because of the bar. Now I'm using DC ROM with the bar.

Basically what you are looking for is an expresso rosie. There should be plenty of themes that you can apply that use that rosie. I know konikub has made a couple of themes for DC. I believe that at least one of them is expresso. May want to give that a shot.

Thanks a lot, but it only themed the notification bar, it didn't theme anything else. Images on the lockscreen are replaced with silver ones, but the bars aren't invisible. Would you happen to have a link to the walppaper used in the theme? If not, I'll just make one.

The only files that were in his zip that were themed were the settings app and the frameworks, so that's all i transferred over. It says that he themed more apps in his thread but like I said it only had the settings apk in it. If you go to his orginal thread he has links were he ported it from and on one of those links you can find the icon packs.
Here is the wallpaper. Its also in the theme if you use 7zip its the default wallpaper in the drawable-hdpi folder

Looks kinda cool, but a little cartoonish.
I was looking at the market pictures and it looked cartoonish, I installed anyways just to see why it got good reviews. I guess the cartoon look is an icon pack, because when I installed it doesn't look cartoonish at all. It actually looks really sharp.
I like that it's different with 2 dock bars, 3 row docks at the bottom like other launchers and another in the middle. You can hide the middle bar by swiping down on it. Still messing with it, but it might actually replace my Go Launcher...

I just discovered (a new one to me) ss launcher. It is completely different than any other launcher I've used. Its definitely worth checking out if you are into trying new looks. Its pretty cool to have such a great selection of launchers these days other than the "big 3"- ADW, LP, and go which are all awesome but essentially work and look very similar. Thanks OP for suggesting this one. I will check it out.

1st off I wanna say no disrespect to the devs...I appreciate all the hard work that goes into all the awesome roms...seems that with all the talk of jellybean and without an official ics release that THEMING has taking a back seat..although i am enjoying team rejects change of pace (annihilation is awesome!) And I love the look of miui but I can't get it to work good enough for me to use as my daily,with that being said I kinda long for the days of a DUSK theme or an all white with black letter theme like the GTX rom I had on my TP2 I think these would look sweet on my et4g...anyone willing to work on anything similar to these?

Not really any more than having Sense or something like that on your phone, its more of a kernel thing and we have some great evo specific kernel devs over here, you just have to find a pure AOSP rom without all the Sense, TouchWiz, Motoblur overlays, then just add your own Widgets icons launcher dialer keyboard font over that and create your personalized interface the way you want it....
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
was gonna post this elsewhere, but here's as good as a place as any i suppose. for those that want to mess around with theming here's a great place to start. it's a vrtheme template for our phone. It should work with most roms. here's a link with some quick info and the download link with our updated binary. all thanks to the villianrom team for a great template/idea
http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/threads/about-villaintheme-system.4971/
http://www.mediafire.com/?ddi2vc7qeg2y44x
basically instead of having to decompile and recompile apk's and have a complete and working apk to flash, this only requires that you place the images, xml's etc in the correct folder structure. everything is in the vrtheme folder in the zip. so to theme a system app, say systemui, you would create a folder called SystemUI.apk in the correct folder structure, namely vrtheme/system/app/SystemUI.apk. then all you have to do is drag and drop the images you want swapped into the proper folder locations. I included an example folder structure for images in drawable-hdpi for systemui and framework-res to get ya started. beauty of this is you can literally drag and drop whole sections of other themes into the template and it will just replace those images on our phone. So if those themes in the OP have same sized images and same names, you could just drag and drop those into the respective vrtheme zip folder and flash away. Make sense? just starting to get this going again on our phones, so mess around, but be careful, I'm obviously not responsible to anything you do
it can also be used to theme paid apps, which is sweet. since your not actually including the apk itself, and the app has to be in the location specified before you apply the theme.
