I finished it for myself if anyone wants to try it. I also posted this a page back, but hardly anyone reads olds posts. :)

I was experiencing random reboots after applying this but a wipe cleared it all up and my phone is running smooth.

I did make some cosmetic changes however.

The dialer is 20.1 (larger avatar with blacklist) and custom for Hero

I replaced the "H" with "3G" in the framework-res.apk file (because since there is no real icon for H, I like to keep it real.)

I changed the battery in the lockscreen.

I changed the battery status indicator (status bar).

And I think that's it.

I had the same exact problem with this theme. Switched over to the Android 2.0 theme and had the same thing happen. The trackball will continue flashing until I reset the phone.

My girlfriend had the same thing happen once with stock 1.6. So, who knows.

Losing connection to Googletalk

I love the theme. Great feel, great options to customize.

I am running into one problem; The phone will not stay connected to Google Talk. Talk works but never stays logged in in the background.

Has anyone else experienced this? Maybe there is an easy fix that somebody has more information on?

Thanks!

I will change the bootscreen in CYANOGEN MOD 4.2.3 THEME VERSION 2.7. Have i got to edit this in the Rom or in the Theme? What would happen if i change the bootscreen in the Rom, flash it again and then install the theme again, is this the way it schould be done?
[Android Themes] nabzilla1990:
just a reminder alot of problems with 2.7 will work on a new release soon

Patiently waiting til this theme regains its status as the #1 theme on xda...should be easy once the bugs get worked out and a slockscreen.....

An update for CM4.2.4 with Stericon's lockscreen would be great.
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
Damn. Do you have any idea how long it takes to port over all the images from one build to another? There is literally thousands of .png and 9.png files that need to be copied over and in some cases renamed! Plus, the kinks haven't even been worked out on 2.7 (for 4.2.3.1) and it's been out for how long? My advice is that if anyone wants it that bad they can make it themselves. When you do then maybe you'll have a little more respect and not be so damn demanding. I've already ported 2.7 over to make my own. It only took me about 3 hours too. Lockscreen and all. So you can either wait however long it takes, or you can spend a few hours and do it yourself. Until you start paying for his work then I would suggest you learn a little bit of patience and not be so demanding because it is very disrespectful and rude.
[Android Themes] randomperson2:
So... you're saying that an update for the latest rom with Stericon's lock screen wouldn't be great (aka awesome)? Where did you get the idea that I was being rude/disrespectful/impatient? Way to read between the lines and lash out irrationally.

On another note- I've been using variations of this theme from the beginning, and I absolutely love it. Keep up the good work!
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
How do I feel that you were being rude/disrespectful/impatient?

I'll answer your question with a question.

Do you think for a second that the OP needs someone to request an update for him to do it?

In regards for the update... yes. It would be "great (aka awesome)" but you would feel a little more proud of yourself if you did it on your own instead of relying on someone elses work. I very rarely download his theme. I port everything over myself. As we speak I am using the theme on 4.2.4 with the Stericon's lockscreen. In fact. If you look a page or two back you would see that I made a lockscreen for 4.2.3.1 and it works just fine for 4.2.4. As a matter of fact... it has 90% of the files required to make this theme (with the lockscreen). The OP still hasn't worked out all the problems with this theme and if it is rushed out how stable would you expect it to be? Would you really rather have something right now and unstable? Or in a few days and problem-free? Unless you think that you can do better.
[Android Themes] ljisafake:
This is my favorite theme..

i m going crazy with this Cy. upgrading.
[Android Themes] xxmonsterx:
I have updated this theme with stericsons lock screen, however i get many force closes. And im still working out the kinks, but its probably gonna take a while considering ive been glued to my ps3 since midnight on monday... modern warfare 2 :D
[Android Themes] sino8r:
I have to agree with Binary... stability is ALWAYS the key to a good theme. Show some thanks and respect folks, please!

Excellent theme, and has always been a favorite of most on XDA. We all appreciate your hard work. I look forward to possibly seeing xrom released, until then I'll keep my nose in my T.V on Modern Warfare 2. The kill streaks are intense. wooh.
[Android Themes] killabytes:
2.6 is NOT for 4.2.4 flash it on 4.2.4 at your own risk.

there is no need to rename the file to update.zip that doesn't change a thing from "flash any zip" basically just adding an extra step.
[Android Themes] nabzilla1990:
im not makin a promise but i think ill have an update out by monday i just need like 3 straight hours when i dont need my phone i only have one phone to test on and i need it every second of the day

No, There's been changes to the framework and other system files that break the theme, should be an update out soon.
[Android Themes] matata86:

Please be patient and stop asking, if you'd scrolled up and read nabzillas post you'd already know it was being worked on

Not rushing you or anything, but when you make a call and the OS uses the stock photo (if you don't have a photo for the contact already) the image it uses during calls is off centered to the left, badly.

[Android Themes] Binary100100:
Make sure you test it before making it official. I've had it running on my phone for a whole 5 hours. So far so good though.
[Android Themes] nabzilla1990:
im sure its fine my 2.7 release was crap the community needed this once again big thanks
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
No problem.

I do notice one problem in the AdvancedLauncher file.

One of the wallpapers is in there twice! Whoops. Sorry. Most people use their own though so I don't think anyone will mind.

If anyone doesn't like anything in the theme then they are free to add/remove whatever they wish (such as fonts, advancedlauncher, certain apps, etc) and just add their own. Simply re-sign and apply should do it. ;)

Compatibility with CyanogenMod 4.2.5

Hero Mix Theme ver. 2.7 is also compatible with CyanogenMod 4.2.5! No need to upgrade on Binary100100 version.
[Android Themes] mrnv45:
prob in advanced launcher.. when settin home screen to screen number ex: setting home screen from sscreen 1...2...or 3.. and press back or home.. i get a forclose on the process.acore or something like that.. i have to restart cause it just loops the fc!..

also where is that music player thats in the first screen shots you have?!..

also my gmail just opens and closes!... i think my phone dont like themes period.. cause it does that on every theme i wonder it could be!?
[Android Themes] matata86:
I set the advanced launcher works without problems, a music player, none FC
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
I do not recommend using a theme that was ported from an earlier CM build.

Reason is that Cyanogen is constantly changing framework-res, phone.apk, settings.apk, etc. So say Cyanogen changes something in Settings.apk and you use a theme that was designed for an earlier rom then you are technically removing his modification because you are using an earlier version of the settings.apk file. Same goes for any file in the rom. ESPECIALLY framework-res.apk. If there is 1 misplaced, misnamed, added or removed file then it can (and mostly does) mess up the entire rom! Hell if a .png or 9.png file is too large (or too small) it could mess it up.

Example. Although ver 2.7 may work on 4.2.5, it is a known fact that the Sterricson lockscreen modification will cause your system to hang and most users can't even get past the boot screen. But hey. If you don't want to use the one that I spent HOURS making and shared with the community then don't. I could care less. But in the last 4 hours almost 40 people have downloaded this theme that they have been eagerly awaiting. If you really think that they haven't tried 2.7 on it then why has this been so welcomed? We all tried 2.7 and it was either unstable or just did not work at all with 4.2.5. BECAUSE IT WAS NOT MENT FOR IT! Period. So since you seem to know enough to give everyone advice then I suggest that you make your own since you seem to think that 2.7 will work. But do NOT EVER ask for help because you could not follow instructions and continued to give faulty and misleading information to others. Do NOT EVER mislead ANYONE in this forum with a comment like this again. If you don't know something to be 100% accurate then you don't know enough to give advice to people that probably have more knowledge than you do. And saying that 2.7 will work with CM 4.2.5 only proves your ignorance.
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
That music player is ported from HTC and I don't think that it'll be supported in future Cyanogen ROMS because it requires so much modification in framework. Cyanogen modifies framework so often that the devs just can't keep up. Also anyone that is running the htc music app, themes or anything else that doesn't come with his roms, he doesn't always offer assistance because it's been modified. Kinda like a warranty. Besides, that htc music app was ment for Hero which had more cpu and more ram. So it runs sluggish on the G1 and Cyanogen roms are all about speed and stability. Adding it is contradictive. Cyanogen is known to say "If you like the htc music app, use Hero." I may have paraphrased a bit but there it is.

4.2.5 with Stericson Lockscreen, Blur animation, Maps w/navi

This is basically the same as the first post 4.2.5 post except it also has the blur animations.

With lockscreen and blur animations.

I understand the risks involved and shall not in any way hold anyone except for myself responsible for downloading and applying this CM 4.2.5 theme with lockscreen and blur animations.

Enjoy!
[Android Themes] matata86:
it would be possible to resolve this bug, please?

[Android Themes] sino8r:
I am having some trouble with Binary's new build. Every time I wipe, flash 4.2.5, and then the theme..... market won't open. It opens and closes in the background. It seems to work fine before flashing the theme. This doesn't seem to be a freak occurence for me either. I have flashed and reflashed 5 times. Also tried redownloading the theme and tried the version with blur animations and the earlier one with just the lockscreen. Just curious if this or something similar had happened to someone else. I remember someone meantioned something about a Google app force closing.
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
Huh. Do you have cache stored on your sdcard or ext partition?

Try clearing the data because Market is one of the only appps that wasn't themed. It is 100% Cyanogen.
[Android Themes] Ace42:
is there a pic for eh new version released?
[Android Themes] ThunderChaos:
Just like the guy a few posts above me, market will not open. The gmail app will also close itself when I try to open it. I didn't have this problem before I started using this theme.
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
It's pretty much like the other Hero builds except for a few of my personal modifications.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4979112&postcount=1093

Note:

If you have having Market issues try to clear your data and cache, run fix_permissions, etc. Don't you do that with any forceclose problem anyway?

Over a hundred downloads! I'm honored. But to the two that are having problems with Market... come on. Do you really think it's the theme? Besides, Market is 100% Cyanogen. Untouched by the theme (so far). Oh... and let's get a logcat please. That would be great. Just saying that your having a problem isn't enough.

Fonts.

If you don't like the fonts then simply push the original back. If you don't know how to do that then search for your answer. I'll give you a hint. To push a file:

adb remount

adb push c:\directory\file.xxx /system/font

In regards to other graphical edits such as battery, other errors, etc...

This is my personal theme. I thought that I already said that. So I don't plan on making any changes to it. I like the battery. I like the fonts. No disrespect but if you don't like it then you are free to edit it the way that you like it. If you don't like the launcher and you want a big CareBare then don't ask me to do it for you. I suggest you edit the files yourself and make your own. But I already have different files submitted for you.

I have:

Lockscreen with blur animations

With the lockscreen.

JUST the lockscreen (there are no changes to any apps or anything like that)

No lockscreen at all (just Cyanogen).

Also anyone having issues with forcecloses or anything like that, try just installing the lockscreen version. It's basically just the framework. If you still have problems with forceclosing or whatever then it can't be the theme.
[Android Themes] sino8r:
I have a2sd ext4 partition and a swap partition with no cache on sd card. The weird thing is I can see the market trying to set up and show the acceptance page before closing. I had already set up before flashing your theme. Oh well, it's all kind of strange. I even tried replacing vending.apk via terminal to no avail. Either way, the theme looks great!
[Android Themes] Ace42:
thnks it looks promising, alot better than my current theme:D

edit: Do any of the themes lag??
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
Try restoring to a pre-theme state and flashing just the lockscreen.

You could also try removing the market from the zip and re-sign the theme.

If you still get the problem then it's not the theme.

Get a logcat too.
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
Mine runs smooth. But I'm using swap and 7 screens. From time to time it gets laggy but I think that it's because of the AdvancedLauncher.

Are you using swap/compcache? Try adjusting them.
[Android Themes] Ace42:
not now i dont have that setup, i only used those when i had hero roms.I only need 4 screens at most maybe 5.
[Android Themes] phantomzer0:
This should be released as a separate theme for those of us that still are holding out hope for the original Community mix. I like the new theme and everything, but the new fonts and other images are turning me off. Don't take that disrespectfully, the work you've done is great.
[Android Themes] sino8r:
Now that's a fine idea! Thanks, Binary! I and many others appreciate your work on the revivial of this beloved theme. Love the additions you made too. I'll try repacking and resigning the theme. If fails... I send a logcat. Just got kinda flustered after all the flashing my mind checked out and my temper took over. Thanks again fore being the voice of reason...
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
No more Droid Fonts

So because there were so many complaints about the Android fonts, I've made a version without them.

Stericson's Lockscreen and Blur animimation with no fonts

Stericson's Lockscreen with no fonts

So now I have a total of 5 different varieties of my personal theme to try to keep the community happy. Damn. So much for "personal" theme. To those that aren't satisfied with this, why can't you just do it yourself? I've already dedicated 3+ hours making this theme, now an additional 2 hours helping those that are having issues with it and now an additional 2 hours of changes and edits just to make you happy. When I think about it... that's like a full day at work. And what do I get? A bunch of unsatisfied and ungrateful leaches asking for me to spoon feed them. Seriously. I've about had it.

If I were to add a new version just because a couple people suggest it, how many different ones would be on here? Would you really like there to be 20 different links to a different version of the same thing? Do you really expect me to spend that much time on this just so it can be unusable after Cyanogen updates his rom?

Seriously people. This theme is going to be obsolete next week and you know it! Why do you expect me to dedicate so much work into something that will be useless in a day or two? And then what? It'll start all over again!

I don't mind suggestions but the complaints about the battery, fonts, etc is just ridiculous. If you don't like something PLEASE change it yourself. It's not hard. It's easier for you to spend a half hour or less to change something yourself than it is for me to keep up with every one's wants and spend 2 or 3 hours making it for that small group of people just so I can go back and see how many people are not happy with it. Not very motivating and at this point I'm not even certain that I want to continue this. I decided to SHARE my work because it would be selfish not to. But instead now I feel like my generosity is being taken advantage of and I can see why so many great devs have left.
[Android Themes] Ace42:
if i were you i would ignore the haters..
[Android Themes] Binary100100:
I know. 182 downloads so far and only about a dozen complaints.

So I'm feeling pretty good about it. I'm proud of my work. But some of these people need to stop being so ungrateful because it's very couterproductive and unmotivating.
[Android Themes] Ace42:
there complaining about free work which is strange,but then again you see that kind of mess all the time here.If they can do a better job then i want to see them make their own theme.:p
[Android Themes] teewunz:
misunderstanding & interpretation

Binary100100...

First and foremost, let me start off by saying that you did a great job on this porting of Community Hero Mix theme to Cyanogen 4.2.5!

Now to continue... I am sure that everyone in the community appreciates your hard work and time in which you've put into this, and most importantly, sharing your "personal" theme with us. Everyone here, I can pretty much say that, knows the hard work and time that one puts into these type of things, and because of it, we appreciate you even more! Not to mention, you are not benefiting off this.

As with anything and everything, what is satisfaction? Satisfaction pertains to ones' opinions; therefore, where one is satisfied, another might not, but then again, that's ones' opinions and perspective on things. The reason that you're asked by these "leechers" to "spoon feed" them is simply because they admire your work. Like any developer, modder, themer, etc, they have critics, these critics help to give the developer an incite on what changes/additions users might like or might not like. I am an applications developer, I understand exactly the point that you're making, however, don't look at it as though they are unappreciative, but rather, we developers should appreciate their "suggestions" because it only makes us and our development better; but then again, you will ask, better for who? The leechers? Yourself? No, better for the community.

With that being said, don't feel unappreciative, because I am sure everyone of these community users appreciate you and your work. As I do myself, I would love to help out the community; however, as being a developer at work, I don't have much time to go home and enjoy working on these things myself; such as theme'n or coding apps.

I hope that these minor obstacles do not dishearten your soul to continue and provide the great modifications. Keep up the good work.

Perhaps one day, when I actually have the time, I will write a guide as to how these "community leechers" can go about customizing and updating the theme to the frequent updates of cyanogen roms, which is the best thing to happen to the Android community...
[Android Themes] phantomzer0:
I just want to clarify that I wasn't *****ing when I said to make a separate thread. I was saying that because it gives the impression that your personal version is the updated version of the community theme, which it is not as you stated yourself.

I think we all appreciate what you are doing, but if you didn't want people to comment on it, you shouldn't have posted it on the internet for other users to download, especially on a forum where everything is comment driven. I understand it's hard work and it's

awesome

that you are helping people out with issues and posting separate versions with different fonts, but don't do it then ***** that people are complaining about your personal theme. If you don't want to change it, then don't. Don't bend over for the whiners that can't understand the level of work that goes into making a custom theme.
