[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] TrevE:
Alot of this is from about a month ago when I started, been traveling alot since so just wanted to update this with my latest add-ons. Screenshots & update- TEBlackMashup_0.1_signed.zip - have been posted. I am going through updating below instructions.

----------

I love how fast my phone feels after fresh 1.1 & gumbo fw with setcpu but I wanted to start getting into changing some of the icons like some of the other android skins ive seen. I take 0 credit for any of these mods, I just took other skins and pieced them together. I will try to give props to everything i used at the bottom of the thread. Some of this is copypasta from other threads i posted so you might have seen this before. Also if your phone spontaneously combusts from following this its not my fault. This is my first shot at doing this so im shooting in the dark as much as most of you are. AS ALWAYS RUN A BACKUP FIRST

------------------------------------

Using all my changes:

------------------------------------

Attached TEBlackMashup_0.1_signed.zip that should be flashable like any other update. Tested update on mine running Gumbo FW/Fresh1.1 & all seems well. HtcContacts.apk & Phone.apk are zipaligned. Run a backup first.

------------------------------------

Using just part of theme:

------------------------------------

If you only want black dialer or only want status bar

Open TEBlackMashup_0.1_signed.zip in winrar, extract APKs you want. Send to phone using below instructions

HtcContacts.apk and Phone.apk contain the black dialer buttons.

framework-res.apk contains the statusbar mods

------------------------------------

Sending individual APKs to phone:

------------------------------------

(only needed if you are only applying part of this theme)

*One method is using fresh's kitchen to send files down.

*Use ADB to push files:

This example expects apks duped in C:\android\ Only run the push commands for the files you ripped out of rom.

cd C:\android\
adb remount
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb push HtcContacts.apk /system/app/HtcContacts.apk
adb push Phone.apk /system/app/Phone.apk
adb shell reboot

*Copying from sdcard if remount fails or probably from terminal on phone

adb shell
$ su
# cd /sdcard
# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
# cp framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
# cp HtcContacts.apk /system/app/HtcContacts.apk
# cp Phone.apk /system/app/Phone.apk
# reboot

---------------------------------------------------

Changing different parts of mod from scratch yourself:

---------------------------------------------------

*Modifying the Status Bar:

Open /system/framework/framework-res.apk with Winrar. Status bar files are in /res/drawable & /res/drawable-480x320. Status_Bar*.png control the looks of the status bar (when you drag down on the notification bar). I took the one from enoch morph and replaced them into my framework-res.apk.

*Top Icons:

The voicemail icon is in in /system/framework/framework-res.apk in the /res/drawable folder called stat_notify_voicemail.png. I didn't like the pinknish purple background so i took the one from modaco and replaced the one in fresh.

Next I wanted to work off of Ratcoms battery icon. In the same /system/framework/framework-res.apk in the /res/drawable folder i took stat_sys_battery_* from his rom and plopped em back into the one from fresh1.1. Working on putting a charging symbol in.

Ratcom also had cool Download/Upload animation. In /system/framework/framework-res i put his stat_sys_download_* and stat_sys_upload_* from /res/drawable.

The wifi icons Ratcom I wanted to use as well. These are the stat_sys_wifi_signal* pngs.

CDMA Location & EVDO/1x data icons are in a different spot. I have not tried changing them yet but they are in /system/framework/com.htc.resources under the /res/drawable-480x320 folder. The EVDO/1x icons are stat_sys_data_*, The CDMA location seems to be sym_gpsone0 & sym_gpsone3

*Dialer Buttons:

Now i got into modifying the dialer buttons. These seem to be in /system/app/HTCContacts.apk. I took the phone_number_* pngs from /res/drawable-480x320 in CC SEO's mod (for the dream) and placed them in our HTCContacts.apk. I did the same in Phone.apk. I had to resize the top row of buttons to be 4px taller or there was a ugly grey bar inbetween rows, couldnt quite figure out where it was coming from. Only happened in htccontacts.apk not with phone.apk.

After you have your modified APKs you may wish to zipalign, then just push to phone following above steps.
