ALL CREDIT FOR UOT KITCHEN GOES TO MENDOZINAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wanted to start this thread because i notice in one thread it says that UOT kitchen will not work with twframework.res file, and in all of the themes threads i repeatedly see people asking "if i flash this can i still keep my gingerbread theme battery" or "will this theme work when flashing over this theme" ect....... I think u get the point. Everyone likes bits and pieces of all the themes but feels like they can't "have their cake and eat it too" Well with UOT Kitchen u can have your own personalized setup unlike anyone else and unique to your device. I am no dev and do not claim to know everything but i will list some instructions to the way i have used UOT Kitchen to make my phone one bad mofo!!!! Now i have a nandroid backup via CWM of several different themes of my KD1 deodexed from whitehawkx.

IF U FOLLOW MY DIRECTIONS I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF U MESS UP UR PHONE!!

EVERYTHING THAT FOLLOWS HAS WORKED FOR ME!!!

U must follow this procedure to cook your framework-res.apk file and then do all the same stuff that you did to your status bar on your framework-res.apk to your status bar in twframework-res.apk file because our phone uses these in conjunction and if you only cook framework-res.apk then all of the changes wont stick! If u know how to open these files and see whats exactly in them then u will know exactly what to change in both twframework.res and framework.res but i'll leave it general for the noobs. Before u upload the twframework.res file to UOT u must rename it to framework.res and then when it is done and u extract the framework.res to push u must rename it back to twframework.res Write down your colors from the first file if u set any so u can apply them to the next file when u cook that one. It doesnt matter which one u do first just make sure u select the same changes for both files and don't forget which zip is which!

Now u need to use root explorer or the like and make a copy of your twframework-res.apk file and framework-res.apk file so u can cook both of them. They are both located in system/framework.

Place the copies of these two files on the desktop of your pc cause u will need to upload them to the kitchen when u are ready to cook.

EDIT: Try leaving twframework-res as twframework-res when uploading to the kitchen to cook. If u error then try changing the name to framework-res and then uploading to the kitchen and cook. Either way when it is done rename back to twframework-res.

1) Go to search engine and search UOT and go to the website for UOT Kitchen

2) Click on kitchen then battery then click the box that says use this mod. U can pick a predone batt. or select custom battery and start selecting and customizing the way u want your battery to look and u can customize what colors u want too!!!!!!!!!

3) Click on icons next and click use this mod again. I have not had any luck changing my emoticons so let me know if anyone has success.

4) Click on status bar and click use this mod. This is where u can really make things look sick. Also remember to the top right there is a button to click to see a preview of your work. ALSO it says that the transparent status bar is only for gingerbread but it has worked for me!!

I have not tried the category GLOWING because im almost possitive it wont work.I also did not use the window animations because launcher pro has those settings in it.

CORRECTION: The window animations do work!!!EDIT: THE GLOWING OPTION DOES WORK!

5) Next click on font pack and click use this mod. Select the font u want for your phone and remember this will change every # and letter that your phone displays to the font that u select.

THE BOOTANIMATIONS CAN ONLY BE CHANGED IF U HAVE A KERNEL THAT SUPPORTS THIS!

6) Now click on file upload and do not change any of the settings on it!!! This is very important! Just click on system files and select the framework.res file and the kitchen will auto upload it. Follow the status bar and wait till the upload finishes.

7)Now click on summary and if all your mods are highlighted green then you are done and ready to cook! Click the button at the bottom that says submit work to kitchen. U will then see your pickup number for your file and u should write this down. Next click the link to go to pickup and once there u just wait for your file to show up and then click on download. The file will come as a CWM flashable file and u can use CWM to flash this file but clean catche first!

HERE COMES THE TRICKY PART SO PAY ATTENTION!!!!!!!!!! U can only flash the zip that contains your cookup of the framework-res file!!!!!!!!! Then reboot and u will see that only some of the changes have taken affect. Now take the zip file that contains the twframework-res file cookup and extract its contents to your desktop. Click on the res file and u will see that the twframework-res file was changed to framework-res so u WILL need to rename it as twframework-res and then place it on the root of your SD card. Use root explorer or the like again and move the file to system/framework and overwrite the existing twframework-res. Now reboot and u are golden!!!!

EDIT: u must rename twframework-res to framework-res and then when its done cooking u extract the .res from the zip and rename it back to twframework-res before pushing it to system/framework.

DO NOT MIX UP THE TWO ZIPS THAT U CREATE!!! U MUST KNOW WHICH ONE CONTAINS THE FRAMEWORK-RES FILE AND WHICH ONE CONTAINS THE FILE THAT WAS ORIGINALLY TWFRAMEWORK-RES AND NEED TO BE RENAMED AS SUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! REMEBER FLASH THE ZIP CONTAINING THE FRAMEWORK-RES WITH CWM AND EXTRACT WHAT WAS THE ORIGINAL TWFRAMEWORK-RES FILE OUT OF ITS ZIP AND RENAME IT BACK TO TWFRAMEWORK-RES AND PUSH IT TO THE PHONE MANUALLY!!!!!!

I hope this helps some of u that want to create a theme of your own or just change certain parts of the theme that u already have. If u don't want to change something in your theme u have or on your stock then just dont use that mod in the UOT Kitchen and it will be unaffected!

Much love to all my Android Galaxy S 4g brothers and sisters!!!!!!!!!! I can smell those custom roms coming right around the corner now that drhonk has a phone to rock on. Thanks everyone that has helped make our device what it is and let me know how this works for yall. Im going to figure out how to take screen shots and post my setup cause im excited to show it off!!!!!!!!! PEACE!!!

Well guys i think i finally figured this screenshot stuff out so here u go!!!!!!!!!!!!!Dope huh??!!!!!!!!!!!!
