Also, before we get started, you will need root, and Jesusfreke's Mod rc30 installed(pref. v1.2), or RC8.
THIS COULD BRICK YOUR PHONE!
While I highly doubt it will, it still could!
If you are going to do this, I very highly URGE you to install the G1 engineering bootloader. With this installed, if something does go wrong, your phone is salvageable!

One more thing! Let it be known that this update will wipe your phone! (This means all your apps, data, etc. will be gone and you will have to sign into your gmail account once more.) This has to happen to install the theme correctly!
However, after you have done this once, and providing you still have the theme installed, you will not have to wipe your phone for future updates, I will provide another update which will install updates to the theme and will not wipe your phone.
With all that said an done I can get rid of that bold font.
This is a very simple process thanks to Jesusfreke helping me understand how to make an update.zip file which will work with his mod rc30 update.
Simply download the file, place it on your sdcard, boot your phone into the recovery mode(power+home), and hit alt+S.
Once it says its done, reboot the phone and enjoy!
Let me know if you run into any problems at all!
Let me know what you want to see in the next release, be reasonable I'm not a master image maker, and android does some strange things to some images.
Let me know if something seems out of place, or wrong.
I will try to resolve all issues as quick as I can.
The non destructive updates are for those that already have the theme installed and wish to upgrade to the newest version.
The destructive updates are for those that have never before installed this theme. This update will wipe the phone as is required the first time this update is installed.
Ok, well I applied it....
Here goes nothing.
US G1 running JF RC30 1.2 and dev bootloader.
I just backed up all my apps using astro too.
Welcome to T-Mobile G1...
See you in a minute.
I don't wanna get off topic here, but we need an all inclusive (how to back up your stuff) thread. Something that hits on Astro, My Backup, TXTract etc... and I need to pull up that thread about backing up your desktop layout and read that...(just can't remember which forum it was on...thing it was AC.com)
Thanks so much for doing this. I'm glad we finally got something different to look at. I'm glad someone is out there defending the pretty.
PS: FIRST!!!

good job man keep continues
Looks good, except I'm having a bit of a problem. I don't have my browser icon. Kind of weird. So, thinking I could get to my browser by doing a search through the widget, "android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly." I'm going to flash Jesus's V1.2 back on, and then try this again. Will post back.
WOW
this is remarkable! I haven't been here for a while. but that just gos to show that in time anything is possible. keep up the great work. will report if i catch any bugs. THANK YOU
very cool
But you'd think they would have made it easier to skin/theme, I mean what's the first thing most of us look for as soon as we get a new phone, myself its walls, themes and ringtones in that order and I don't think I'm that diferent than the average g1 owner, and the average g1 owner is very different than the average mobile user.
But everybody wants to personalize a new phone, that's why we don't all wear the same clothes...
To the OP, thanks for all this hard work you have given to the community.
Bhang
See I knew it. I always had my faith in the awsome ppl here @ XDA-Developers.com. Just can't wait to see what's in store for the future, I know it will be more things to come that'll make you wish we never should of doubted the G1 and Android. Keep up the g00d work guys

Got it to work. Looks great! Except i now have to re-enable my browser Auto-Rotate. No biggy though, great work!
I've had a small amount of trouble with this, although I'm not convinced 100% that it's at fault.
I've attempted to install this on my uk t-mobile g1 and it seemed to flash ok, however I couldn't get past the sign up screen as it force closed before completing. I re-flashed back to my original modded TC5-RC8 and the problem persisted until I then forced a hard reset ALT-W in the bootloader.
On my second attempt (I know I'm an optimist) I just got a hang on the g1 splash screen (Which I managed to recover via adb). I'm thinking it's related to my being on TC5-RC8 as opposed to RC30.
Any ideas, or has anyone else had more luck with TC5-R8?
All the apps for the base rom have to be resigned separately /system/app. So if you use the UK rom some apks will not be signed and cause a looping android or crashes. I had actually done this to the UK rom(skinning) but I am a mediocre image manipulator so i just changed hues.
This will work with with RC30 JF image. not the uk. If its needed I can remake his work with his permission for the UK rom.
Ive modified it for use with the uk rom here is the download link

let me know if works
To All:
About Koush's auto rotate browser, if you replace the browser in that update with his, one of the status bar images will change I believe, no biggy, you will just need to replace it the image if you like. I may do this then post his auto rotate browser.
Thirdly for those missing icons, it is likely maybye something did not get copied. If this is the case, and you are missing programs, please let me know which one as I can send them to you and you can manually push them to your phone without having to do another wipe.
Bhang: Google made this really difficult.....I agree you would think that themes would have been a first to settle....SHRUG
EDIT: afbcamaro, Thanks so much for taking the time and doing this. With the rc8 update does everything look the same?

When I go to do the auto-rotate browser, there is no room left. Oh well.
To push file to the dir /system NEVER do it while the phone is on, running normally. You need to boot into recovery mode and push it from there.
when you get into recovery mode you will need to type the following to mount /system
adb shell mount /system
adb push /whereveryoufileis/Browser.apk /system/app
This will eliminate the problem you are having.

i found a bug
Everythings good. But I found something. When you make a folder and open it the res is off
Hope you can fix this its not a biggie but I told you I would report any bugs. Thanks again
So when you make a folder in the file manager or what? You have to be specific as to what program you were using, etc. I have to know exactly what your looking at....maybe you can take a screen shot?
Stericson
nice work stericson!
some things i noticed:
-opening a folder (shortcut) on the desktop. label is not displayed, and folder contents are not superimposed enough when its in the foreground.
-can't see the highlight when pressing an entry (inbox, sent, etc.) in the gmail app.
Ok. first, thanks for reporting back.
What do you mean the label isn't displayed? I put items on my desktop and I can see all of theie labels. I am also not catching what you are trying to tell me about the folder contents not being superimposed enough when in the foreground, maybe a screenshot would help.
Also the highlight, when pressing an email, etc should turn a bright white, as it does for me, does it do this for you? Also, what suggestions would you have for the colors or solutions to these problems?

I've been reading up on this upgrade, and I'm very interested. The only thing is, if I do this, will it unlock my phone and if my phone unlocks, will it still work with my phone insurance? Also, were there any problems after doing this with MMS that I can fix if I were to encounter any? I've read people having problems with MMS afterwards and I use it pretty frequently so I don't want that to be like messed up. Thanks in advance for any replies.
With regards to insurance if your on about your carrier then you just flash back to the original ROM, with regards to MMS issues i'm baffled as it's simple to set up and with thousands on thousands of users with no issues there seems to be a small ammount of users with issues, you can set up automatically via connection setup or even input all the info manually if you wish.
The ammount of extra you get with WM6.1 i bet that once flashed you will never want to see WM6 anywhere... And if not you just flash back to stock ROM.

Second, The phone companies don't like it when you install unofficial roms on their phones, you can also find an official rom in the forum to place in your phone later if needed.
Third, some problems happen to some phones,it doesn't mean that you'll have the mms problem, but let me tell you something about this forum, we have the coolest people and they'll always help you when you need it. specially Stylez.

Hello all,
So I bought my HTC Wildfire S Virgin Mobile on black friday like everybody else. I waited a few days and then rooted. And then I had the brilliant idea to try installing the CM 7.1 Mod for it. And well, I didn't do a Clockwork Backup, and well, it didnt work very well. The phone got stuck on the HTC screen. So finally I installed a different ROM, JikantaruROM, and I managed to get past the bootscreen but I can't use my carrier anymore. So I was wondering if anybody could either tell me how to flash CM 7.1 Unoffical release to my phone, or if anybody knew a way I could get back to the original Virgin Mobile software. It seems that you have all the other stock roms, so I would REALLY appreciate if someone could share the Virgin Mobile rom too.
Thanks in advance,
Wieland959
Seconded. Although I think mine is in a slightly worse case; I kept flashing roms and ended up in a state where it turns on, screen remains black, then the phone vibrates three times and evidently does nothing. So Wieland959, I'd advise you to stop flashing until someone posts the ROM.
And if someone could let me know how to recover from my current state, I'd very much appreciate it.

Your in the same boat I was just in. My solution was to go back to radioshack with the receipt and tell them it just turned off and wouldnt turn back on. Just doing the 3 vibrations. I did spend hours trying to search about how to fix it, but I dont think theres a way unless you use a jtag hookup and some sort of fancy programmer.
@Wieland959, If you want. I just tried to do the OTA update through the settings on the phone itself. It would let me download the file(I believe it should be flashable through the cwm recovery), but when I tried to let the phone install the file, I would get the android with the exclamation mark after the reboot. Ill try to post here, if it will upload. But......
DISCLAIMER!!!!
I take no responsibility for anyone damaging their phone using the file here. This file, as far as I know, should only work with the Wildfire S Virgin Mobile USA CDMA model A510C as this is the phone the file was downloaded from.
Thank you for the file, but I couldn't flash it. What might work though, if you are willing is, if you have rooted your phone, to make a cwm backup and upload that here. From there I should be able to recover and then factory wipe my phone. But thank you anyways for the file. I will keep kicking until the phone doesn't boot.
How are you planning on restoring from backup if the phone doesn't even boot?
Sorry, I'm new to this...

from the recovery, by holding down the vol down button and power button. then select recovery.
also, im in the same boat as OP haha
Okay. I managed to boot my phone and am able to send/receive texts. The rom I used? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1367701] It seems to work pretty well. However, I would still like to have the original rom if someone could still upload it.
VM USA Stock Clockwork Backup
Well, I don't know much about stuff like this, but here is my clockwork mod recovery backup. It's just the stock VM USA w/HTC Sense. I have realized that I deleted the bloatware, so that's the only thing that isn't 100% stock. Hope it helps.
*Unzip the file before placing on you sd card. (Contains the clockwork folder, which contains the backup folder,and then the folder that contains the backup itself.)*

Is this a good rom? I'm looking for some senseless roms that will work with our version of the WFS. will you post if you are able to go back to the Stock Virgin backup that I have posted? Also how much memory is on the rom that you posted?
With the a2sd enabled, you get 150 to 175. It's nice.

Thanks for the backup! It worked perfect for me!
would you mind if i posted the link on another forum? i know of a couple people looking for a backup aswell.
You should be able to switch back with the recovery no problem. Correct me if I'm wrong, but to install boot into recovery, install from SD, select specific, and select the zip of the rom. Also, I don't have my phone on me so the wording might be a little different.
MMS is a known issue with the rom from what I've read. I don't have it installed personally.
@brandonhun, Thank you so much. You're a life saver. As far as the rom goes, it still have sense on it and there are tons of MMS errors. So just wait and eventually something will pop up.

Just a heads up wieland, when you get a voice mail and you try to check it from the notifications make sure it's your number, because I ended up giving brandonhun a call. Going through the activation app and rebooting fixed the problem.

I haven't done this ROM change but if its the stock HTC Sense go to personalize and get HTC widgets (perhaps its get more HTC widgets) and you should find an update to the clock widget. That should give you the original clock plus a bunch more new ones.

hi,i have installed arhd 6.3.1 yesterday and now i have problem with its internet!!!!when i connect to internet(wifi and 3g)it shows this massage to me"The application %1$s (process %2$s) has stoped unexpected"
i don't know is it for mods I've flashed or for rom??
and i had problem logging on with my google acount and my facebook app didn't work neither!!!!!when i try to open facbook it shows me that massage again!!!!
I was trying to help someone figure out this issue earlier with no luck. Sounds like a bug with the Rom. The only thing I didn't have him check was the kernel he was using. Can you tell me what kernel comes with the Rom. Also if it is cfs or bfs.

Hello,
You didn't say if you super wiped your phone before flashing new rom.
According to Mike it's optional but recommended.
Maybe that's the case?
Unless you did super wipe. Then maybe mods, you've installed, are causing problems?
I also flashed 6.3.1 yesterday and to be honest I don't have any problems with this rom so far.

What have you done to troubleshoot your issue? Did you do a full wipe and reflash the rom without any of the mods? I dont see a logcat file attached, have you done a logcat to see what is causing the issue?
Please provide as much info as you can after you try to troubleshoot the issue yourself before opening a new post. This is a development site, not a rom support site.
i have super wiped before flashing new rom, i didn't have this peroplem until i connected to internet!!!!
i couldn't even login to my gmail account through my "sync and accounts"!!!!
i used a vpn and then i could sync my contacts from my account!!!!
there is something else!!!in setting>about phone>software it is written arhd 6.20 instead of arhd 6.3.1!!! Is it a problem or just a nane mistake ??
i am going to super wipe and flash it again!!!! I'll let you know if any thing happens!!

That's why you search and read. I told you ylhow to find the issue and the first steps to trouble shoot it. I understand you are new but that doesn't let you not to your own trouble shooting first. Go back to my last post and read what I said. Try the TS steps and if that doesn't work run a logcat. A search will show you how to do it. To help you people here need to know excatly what you did. Every single thing and unless you try the basic troubleshooting how is anyone supposes to help you. As a member of a development site you are required to do your homework first before opening a new thread.

If you cant do a simple search maybe a custom rom is not for you. Custom roms will never be bug free and may require you to do some basic trouble shooting. No I will not tell you how to do the basics step by step. That is not what we do here. I just spent 10 sec searching on how to do a logcat and lookie what i found.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=818084
Now in all seriousness. Flashing roms to your phone is not a simple thing. While yes we make it easy please understand what you are doing before you do it. Custom roms are not for every one. Sometimes it takes hours if not days to fix an issue that pops up. hours upon hours of reading. If you cant devote the time and energy needed to do this maybe you should really rethink running a custom rom.

Or simply this (for logcat) https://market.android.com/details?id=org.jtb.alogcat&feature=search_result&hl=en
But it seems like you had a bad flash. Try to wipe everything n flash again.
Re-download the ROM, if it says 6.2.0 not 6.3.1 you have an early version with a small error in it. It wouldn't cause the problem you've described but it does display the wrong version number.
Then when you have downloaded the ROM, make sure you check the md5 checksum to be sure the file downloaded correctly: http://bit.ly/s8AqiC
Then as others have said, superwipe and re-flash. Good luck.
I have super wiped and then flash my rom and then my kernel,it worked fine without eror!
I THink the problem was "Revolution_HD_6.1.x_batterymod_Glow_by_Nieass" this mod!!!now I have installed every thing except this mod and it works fine!!thank you all
but it is written 6.20 instead of 6.3.1!!!
the md5sum of file that i have downloaded is different from the md5sum that is written in arhd page!!!but the file name was the same!!!!!
I have to redownload it??
I have checked 6.20 & 6.3.1 that i have downloaded md5 checksum and their not the same!!!
when i flashed this new 6.3.1,all the apps that are updated as it tolled in arhd page!!!i'm redownloading it again tonight!to find out the issue
Yes, re-download it - but you don't have to superwipe again, just flash it over the top.
The changes from the ROM with the wrong version in "About phone" to the correct 6.3.1 zip were very small, and don't require a wipe before flashing. The main difference (possibly the only one) is the version number that displays in Settings.
And please don't use any more mods for 6.1.x or 6.2.x, only use versions for 6.3.x, as it can cause problems. I think Nieass said he will be updating his mods, so just keep an eye on his thread. Lots more mods will come for the new 6.3.x ROM, I'm sure, now that we have a final version of the official HTC base.
It's been written many times not to flash mods for older versions, so you could have saved yourself some pain by reading more on the forums first. Also as zelendel said, you need to provide more information explaining things when you have a problem. jerras asked in the 3rd post if you had flashed any mods, and if you had answered him then I'm sure someone would have been able to tell you what was wrong. People on these forums are very clever, but they aren't psychic and can't know what you've done unless you tell them.
Just remember - read as much as you can before you flash things, and if you ask for help give as much information as possible about what you've done. But I'm glad it's working for you now.
you are right!!
I'll give you more info if any thing happens again!!!!
an other question!!!!

Yes, if they worked on ARHD before they will work now. Boot animations aren't affected by the software version so you should be fine.
I'm using Snipers PACMAN, and battery just seems to drain way to fast. It is the latest push. Being newly registered on here I hate to introduce my self this way but I need advice. What tweaks are being used by people for the SPH-D710 to help with this issue? I originally started with the CM 10.1 rom and found I had no data, flashed a different modem. Still no data, switched roms and now have data....go figure! But the battery drain is killing me, I've got it throttled back as far as I can go and it still be a daily driver. So anyone have any suggestions?
Godlys Comadose Tweak pack works great:thumbup:

OK....now I'm lost as to which to try and use.....reading the posts to the provided links seems to give contradictory information as to where to start this journey.....

Most 4.2 Roms use ICS modems. As for battery us betterbatterystats found here on xda or gsam in the play store to determine if there's any rogue apps keeping the phone from sleeping. I also do manual syncing. Greenify is a great app to keep apps from running on their own. You can also use a custom kernel to limit max frequency and even undervolt. Kernels also come with different governors

After reading through the above posts you should have some useful ideas about what this governor does.Also...as for installing a governor, they will be included in the kernel that flashed with ur rom or a kernal of ur choosing(MAKE SURE IT WILL WORK WITH THE ROM YOU HAVE) Im new to this, so if there is another way I dont know about it. Do ur research... As for setting a governor.. There are many roms with built in performance controls as well as many apps to set them. I suggest (set cpu) . It has a setting that will make a zip so u can recover from ur settings if u bootloop. This is found after u install and give it root permission. Hit ur menu button and click SAFE MODE. You should have a nandroid; always and just because.I hope this helps.. Remember...Read...Read...Read..lol.. Good Luck.Also read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2005306

You identify yourself as "new to this" but you nailed this post 110%!! Many people would do well to take what you said here to heart. If they did there would be MANY fewer "help me" threads.

Thank You...... I went ahead and added another link for him to read. I hope it helps. As to what you said, I like to think of myself as the poster child for the search button..lol..I think if you do the research it makes you feel better when it works and it is more likely to stick with you. This site is so great about that because there is just so much knowledge here to learn.I think some people get over-whelmed by it though or they are just unsure and need that go ahead push to know it works.
Ok since I can't ask a Dev a question about the kernel I want to install.....which I kinda understand, but being stuck not being able to ask questions about something specific after reading all the pages blows! (rant off) [Kernel] Lightning Zap! Phase 4 Updated 15JUN13 is causing a boot loop, I followed all the instructions to the letter, crossed every T, dotted all the I's. Thank god for backup!

Well, you're commenting on a thread about battery life, but not posting about battery life. That's not going to help you much.
I also read that you want to ask a question, but I don't see a question in your post. If you do have a question, a great place to post it would be here: [Official] One Stop FAQ Thread - Noob Friendly (All questions go here). Okay? :good:

Well let me clarify it for you, it's my thread. The original question is still valid being as I was pointed this direction by a reply to my original post. Let me lessen your confusion on this matter......What other steps can I take to increase battery life......scripts didn't seem to help and a tweaked kernel put me in a boot loop....and whom do I ask if not the DEV?

Hey bro, easy on the tone. Because there are so many ways to ask the question, the best way is to just spell it out how you did above. Battery life depends on the apps/ROM/user all at the same time. I am on Project X ROM. It has Crossbreeder installed. Now I am not no where informative about that app other than a lot of people like it. So with that being said and it is installed on the ROM, I leave it. I also have ROM Toolbox Pro. I have adjusted my CPU control to 1000MHZ. I also have DS Battery Saver Pro set to custom and to kill all apps when the screen goes off. Last the ROM I am on comes with Greenify. A great app in saving battery. I also turn off data and only have WIFI on when I need it. No need to just let things run. With that I have had 50% battery life left after 11 hrs. That is my setup and may not work for you. The main thing is to understand that battery life for EACH phone is different no matter how many common denominators people may have. Team Venum did a comparison of ROM's and their respective battery life. I don't know the post, but if you type "battery life" in the search, then I am sure you can find it. As for you response, I was in your shoes at one time. It does help to be specific in your questions. Not saying that you weren't. Reading each and every post will get tiresome, but if you type in what you want in the search, you will get a slew of post to get info. I have only been a member for 4 months, but I have learned how to flash a ROM, Mods, push and app, setup custom home screen. I have even been given the honor of testing a ROM. If you still need help, you can PM me and I will do what I can. Have a great one.

Its fine,you can rant here...lol..Ok ,I need more info.....
rom you're try to use with lz kernal
how you went about flashing said kernel
did you have any other tweaks or mods flashed before flashing lzp_4
All of this info is important, so I can tell you what is wrong....Thanks..

Thanks Gil, this is exactly what I have done.
1. flashed from 4.03 to WILD-FOR-THE-NIGHT-07052013-d710, had no data....tried to find a fix for that...gave up after trying tweaks to help with the battery issue and no data.
2. Clean install of d710_PAC_JB_4.2.2-v23.0.0_20130719-015400, now have intermittent data, wifi works, blutooth works, flashed Fl24 modem with no apparent improvement in data connectivity, thought after reading a kernel flash might fix issues, here comes the boot loop....flashed smdk4412_p4 waited patiently for 2hrs watching Pacman chasing ghosts.....booted into recovery and ran my backup tried it 2 more times on clean flashs gave up after 5 hrs. By clean I mean wipe/reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, install from zip.
3. this is how I installed the kernel:
Make a backup
Download .zip to PC
Transfer .zip to sdcard
Reboot to recovery
Flash
Phone automatically rebooted after install
waited and waited......boot back into recovery. restore by backup.
everything has been done with CWM based recovery. I'm stumped....frustrated to no end......

First off...I have had the lzp_4 boot loop on me. I pulled the battery,waited about 2 min. Put it back in and booted to recovery. Then I wiped cache and dalvik. Rebooted and it took off(booted fine). I have no idea why or how, but this worked for me. Now to my main concern. If you came straight from ics to a jb rom I think this is going to cause you issues, if you hadn't been on jb before. I suggest the one - click full restore(it wipes data,so back-up you're internal memory).This will get you're phone partition right for jb. After this. I think you should be able to flash what you want with no problems. I didn't see a problem with how you flashed. Wipe cache and dalvik on the kernal flashes you do.Here's the link for the one -click..
go to linked page and click on download ota at top of page
I would read through the page it sends you to well.Don't forget to thank those guys..Hope this helps.Hit me up if it doesn't.

Doing a one click restore worries me, I'm not on sprint any more and worried about losing my flash to my current carrier. Is this a concern I should have since I'm not used to working with odin? I'm more than willing to try another ROM also, I'm not locked into this by any means.....

The carrier should not matter if you are on an E4GT phone. But if your trying to go to a JB ROM, you will need to aupdate to GB** for your phone. For sprint it is GB27. Have you tried RWilco12's repository to see if your carrier is listed? Also QBKing77 has a lot of videos concerning this specific phone. How to flash specific ROMs and upgrading specific build, modems and such. Something has got to work for you.

Well now I'm stuck on Sprints 4G boot screen just keeps looping.....WTH.....I've never had a phone be a pain like this....guess I let it kill the battery and see what happens. Recovery is there, not cwm so can't even restore my backup. I'm just frustrated by this phone! Gill, bigmike any idea which way to turn now?

What ROM did you flash? Was it ICS or Jellybean? What carrier are you on. That was never revealed.
Never kill the battery. I sed you tried" Wild for the night" and Pac something. Can you get to recovery?
