XDA,

Just wanted to know how can I, we add themes to our Android builds. For example, this UltraLinx Desire Theme Thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=736987

I currently have Metamorph, but nothing is working for me. Just wanted to know if anyone is able to add custom themes and how.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mr_billionaire:
misleading title, you shouldve put [Q] instead of [How-to]

but i belive i read that Metamorph does not work on the HD2.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Sichroteph:
Wrong. Metamorph works for me, but check for each theme their compatibility.

For example, the metamorph theme often need for modding the toolbar, that you have cyanogen (shubcraft hd2 roms for example)

Changing battery icon often didn't need anything special and should work.

For exemple on my shubcraft build :

It can be tricky to know what works and doesnt on our distro, so always make a complete titanium backup before, in case your system doesnt boot anymore.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pongster:
Change the title if you want more people to help you... I thought this was a how to...

I will be posting a how-to on my site soon...

In the meantime, for system themes: simply replace the the drawable-hdpi in framework-res.apk/res with the one from the theme you want. use adb push to put back into the phone.

On my build, since there's no recovery mode where we can safely change system files in use, I had to reset my email accounts and wallpaper settings after this...

no biggie... :)

metamorph does work

I use the donator version and was able to successfully use the zen theme and a few more themes

however, I have been receiving issues with installing others (eg nextTang for example)

What I've been doing/done that hasn't worked is

I create a file in the root directory of my storage card, make the system folder and copy the theme files to the system (eg app, lib, res)

but my android gets a reboot sequence. It never boots after I apply the theme

I should clarify this is on shub 1.4b cm6 rc3 I tried that method

I also tried editing the htcupdate_leo.tar.gz in which the system file is in (copying the files from there) but I can't boot afterward. The boot splash reloops

any help is super appreciated

edit pongster where in the heck is your site????
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] inku79:
Been tryingt to change the ugly stock sense theme all day without luck.

Tried metamorph even the pro version, then to replace files in root framework also creating framework folder in android build folder but nada, the phone will not boot after these tries. Kinda getting the feeling im not getting the right themes. Using darkstones latest.

Any links and howtos on successful theme installs?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] palosjr:
with darkstones ROM's and builds you will need to delete the .odex file and the file you are about to push over before you can get it to work right. so in short the steps needed would be.

edit your theme to your liking

adb shell rm -r nameoforiginalfilestillonphone.apk /location/of/file

adb shell rm -r nameoforiginalfilestillonphone.odex /location/of/file

adb shell push nameoffileyouthemed.apk /location/you/deleted/from

adb shell reboot

this should work, but dont blame me if it doesnt.

i take no responsibility. this is simply what works for me when working with builds that have not yet been de-odexed
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] inku79:
framework-res.apk does not seem to have a matching odex file. All the jar files have it but not apk.

ill give it a shot anyway.

no luck...

did however find out that placing the framework-res.apk on storage/android/root/system/framework does load it upon boot (saved my last crashed build by placing the original framework-res.apk there).

however have tried several framework-res.apk files from different themes... all of them crash my froyostone buid at the moment....sux :-(

Anyone running the leaked froyo for incredible notice the sound quality through the headphone jack as being a little under par? It sounds a little distorted. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem.
[Vibrant General] kcbboy:
Ok so I did something pretty stupid and tried to let my friend copy avatar to his HD2 and it ended up locking the file. For some reason the movie itself is in 3gp format and not dcf like everyone else said from what I searched but I do remember it being in dcf before. Now the movie won't play and it says "unsupported file type". How can I possibly get this back? I know xda doesn't condone posting up movies so maybe someone could email it to me? Help me out here please.
[Vibrant General] the3dman:
Try renaming it back to the original extension .dcf. Are your sure its not the trailer you are seeing that is in .3gp format? The trailer is supposed to be in 3gp and the actual movie should be dcf
[Vibrant General] kcbboy:
how are you suppose to rename it back...? No i'm not getting it mixed up with the trailer. Both of them are in 3gp. Like I said, I do remember it being in dcf before.
[Vibrant General] the3dman:
Transfer the file back to your computer and rename it back (windows: right click rename) then transfer it back to your phone, or on your phone download and open a 3rd party file manager and long click on the file and select rename.
[Vibrant General] kcbboy:
you can't rename the file type. That doesn't work...
[Vibrant General] rdunn20:
send me ur email i have files saved to my computer
[Vibrant General] the3dman:
I have never had a problem renaming the file type. It obvously got renamed somehow if it is a 3gp now. Unless you tried to convert it.

www.xxthe3dmanxx.com
[Vibrant General] techboydino:
Download Astro from the market and rename the file. That should do it for you, I had the same problem. It works.
[Vibrant General] speoples20:
You can share the file or offer to share the file here. Its copyright protected material and is not allowed to be shared here.

OP if you can't rename it and it won't play you are SOL.
[Vibrant General] dq13:
This happened to me, the exact same thing... How did I solve this problem?

I went back to T-Mobile playing stupid, like I didn't do anything and told them I tried to open the movie and doesn't work, like it came defective or something. The went to the back and replaced my SD for one from a new phone... DONE!! just don't tell them you tried to copy it or anything... it just doesn't work and never did!

for future reference... copy the file to the main memmory on the phone, then insert the SD from the HD2, then copy from the phone to the SD... done! it won't lock
[Vibrant General] raduque:
It aint gonna play in any other device but a Vibrant anyway.

Download Astro file manager, look for the SD folder and tap it to open, look for Movie and tap it, then long-press on the avatar.3gp file and tap edit, then tap rename.
[Vibrant General] kcbboy:
I tried going to tmobile and getting an SD card from one of the returned vibrants but the rep working told me that swapping out sd cards wouldn't fix it. I knew he was completely wrong but I just went along with what he said anyways cause there was probably no convincing him to give me another card. I just ended up calling samsung for a replacement card. All I have to do is ship mine out and they'll send me one back.
[Vibrant General] kcbboy:
Well I was about to mail it out to samsung but forget that now. Renaming it with astro worked! Thanks!
[Vibrant General] dq13:
good thing it worked. I f'ed up mines the first day LOL cuz I was trying to put my SD from my old HD2 (16gb) and on the copy process I screwed it, but like I said, they swaped it at tmobile, so he was just talking crap or didn't have one to give you
[Vibrant General] the3dman:
Glad you got it working
[Vibrant General] texaslonghorn1:
I'm confused. You think losing Avatar is a BAD thing??? Hell, the first thing I did on my phone - even before I left the TMO store - was to pull that Avatar-containing card out and replace it with another one. Without blue people on it.
[Vibrant General] Shagman68:
So, anyone know how to fix it when I play Avatar, and it tells me "Sorry, License Expired"
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phucnguyen:
Hi,

I have an ADP1, which has been updated to the official 1.6 image last year following HTC's tutorial, using the "recovery image" method.

Now I'm trying to update my phone to CyanogenMod-6 RC3.

I tried booting into the recovery mode, but pressed [Alt+L] and ended up with a menu with only 4 options. So I can't do Nandroid or install DangerSPL.

reboot system now [Home+Back]
apply sdcard:update.zip [Alt+S]
wipe data/factory reset [Alt+W]
wipe cache partition

At the bottom, I see this line

E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command

I thought I needed to install RA-dream-v1.7.0, so I followed the instruction on Amon_RA's thread (sorry I'm not able to post links yet). I used the fastboot method. Fastboot saw my device and eventually outputed:

sending 'recovery' (4594 KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... OKAY

Then I tried rebooting into recovery mode again using Home+End, but found the same old screen. Not with menus with a lot of options like in the screenshot. What have I done wrong? And ultimately, am I going on the right track of trying to install CyanogenMod-6 on my ADP1?

Many thanks :)

I saw it on a youtube video and the apps would scroll up/down and it looked as if it was 3D like they were coming up a wall from the bottom of the screen then laid flat when they got to the screen....I know it's a rough description but does anyone know what I'm talking about?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] damis648:
You're probably looking for something like LauncherPro. The has an option to use that 3D view when scrolling apps.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] TexUs:
Yea but it's no there on the Samsung UI.

Launcher Pro is based heavily on stock Android, so downloading that and turning on the 3D effect will net you what you desire (I use it myself).

How do you get the htc clock widget and friendstream and stuff on launcherpro? or is it even possible?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Veritas06:
Nope, those are Sense Widgets, so if you use LP you can't use those widgets. If you buy LP+ though i think they have similar widgets. You can take a look at them without buying just to check them out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soxozor:
.. Replacements.

Sense Clock -> Fancy Widgets. Look it up on google.

Friend Stream -> Pure Messaging Widget does similar job.

Pro Version so far has

-Message

-Favorite

-Bookmark

-Calendar

Widgets I Believe. It's well worth it.

nope, task29 doesn't erase the bootscreen. You'll have to find the original bootscreen and flash it.

Is anyone else having issues with call waiting not working when using google voicemail? I like the features of google voice but this is a deal breaker. I noticed that the call waiting feature is not working at all on my sprint # and every time it is going directly to voicemail, I assume this has to be because of google voice is configured to be my default voicemail?

Is there any solution to this problem besides going back to sprint vvm?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sabres1985:
So all the people who are using google vm are fine with losing call waiting? And CM recommends google vm and boasts how it is far superior to to sprint voicemail even though we lose a major feature like this?

I find that all very hard to believe, there has got to be a solution someone must know! I've searched everywhere and can't find anything.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nebenezer:
I use GVoice and love it, and I have no issues with call waiting.

I did have a ton of problems with GVoice when I first started using it. After a ton of reading and trial-and-error on setting things up different ways over and over I finally realized Sprint's voicemail service was conflicting with GVoice.

I called Sprint and actually had them completely remove their voicemail service from my account. I can add it back anytime I want. I have had zero issues with GVoice since then. YMMV
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nenn:
GV works fine for me. i get my voice mails transcribed, call waiting works, and if you install the app, you get a nice little toggle link for how you want your outbound calls routed.

win.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sabres1985:
Thanks, I'll give that a try!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sabres1985:
Yea I'm getting all those features as well, like I said everything works great except call waiting. But I'm gonna try nebenezer's suggestion and hope for the best.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zone23:
You know what else doesn't work with Google Voice is "Decline" because if you decline a call it goes straight to Sprint Voicemail. The call never gets forwarded. Deal breaker for me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nebenezer:
hmm, I didn't realize that.

One thing that does bug me too is that caller-id-blocked numbers don't make it to GVoice either.

My work line shows as 000-000-0000 on caller id. I have tested this on a wide variety of phones and gvoice settings and never have I been able to leave myself a vm from my work line.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sabres1985:
Well that sucks, back to Sprint VVM for me then.

Hopefully this is something that Google can even fix and isn't a limitation due to Sprint's network or hardware in some way.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nebenezer:
FWIW, I just tested this a couple times with a friend at work, no problems here. Maybe that was another conflict with Sprint's voicemail service?

He called my phone from his, I declined the call, he left a voicemail..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reekotubbs:
If you want to make sure that voice mails go to google voice, turn on Call Screening. That way if you don't answer, decline or you miss the call, you google voice picks up the message. You may get a voicemail message in your sprint voicemail box, but it will only have the message "press 1 if you want to accept this call"

So with this method you don't have to forward calls at all.

Let me know if this helps anyone.
