I took a look at Theme Chooser for CM7.

This is no problem to make kitchen support for those apks.

Theme chooser duplicates framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk, but not all features, kitchen offers. I need to test if additional freatures, added to themer will work.

If so - modding theme chooser is quite possible.

also, for those, who have problems with old battery showing each 5% - you need to change your theme to System (default).
[Desire Themes and Apps] mendozinas:
like I said, kitchen changed the way carrier name is treated (post 2872)

so try again and you will not loose power buttons if you already had them.

just make shure you upload framework file with power buttons.

if your rom dont have power buttons, and theme do have - upload framework from theme.
[Desire Themes and Apps] CreaB:
hehe, no problem. i've lost the overview in this thread, so i just needed to ask. =)

but i've got another question:

everytime i create a little theme (battery & icons) the battery-mod is well apllied. there is no error or anything, but if i take a look into the framework-res.apk i recognize that the statusbar icons are not included. it is AuraxTSense 8.4 framework-res.apk from the uot-server, no matter if i select or deselect them in the kitchen, there is no change, the original icons are still there. with the AuraxTSense 8.3 framework all is working great.

Maybe someone has experienced similiar things and/or maybe any solution?

thanks in advance!

can someone please delete this? =) thanks

[Desire Themes and Apps] mendozinas:
you are a bit wrong.

SystemUI.apk is different from Androidian.apk.

Basicaly spoken - SystemUI.apk is your system file, and Androidian.apk (or Cyanbread.apk) is only addon for some changes.

its like symlinks in linux - theme's apk overrides some files in the system without actualy changing original ones.

I'm not decided between tree options:

1. make kitchen to change (add) features in Androidian.apk, or Cyanbread.apk (or any uploaded theme)

2. build UOT's own theme to be applyed in rom with kitchens features only. This whould be easyest option, but you will not have other changes (like lockscreen etc)

3. do nothing, as you can change framework, systemui and set theme in your rom to defaut.

let's discuss about best option.
[Desire Themes and Apps] mendozinas:
I can bet - you don't press Generate preview button.

so no new files are generated and no changes applyed. Checking only checkboxes is not enought.

what do you mean with recompiled? i downloaded the manager but don't know what it's got to do with the kitchen
[Desire Themes and Apps] julesism:
ok, I cooked up a new zip and chose the G3 Dr.Droid icon set. This time everything worked! I had my custom circle battery and the other icons worked great on my HTC Droid Incredible using CM7 RC2. I want to use the G7 HD Sense icon set so I cooked up a new zip, flashed it, and like yesterday, only the circle battery works. I tried the MIUI icon set and it was hit or miss :/ The BT and SD notifications worked but WIFI, data, and signal remained GB. GPS was a mix of both. I'm flashing the same way each time. For now I'm ok with the circle battery and Dr. Droid.
[Desire Themes and Apps] mendozinas:
decompile your framework (9), compile (11) and sign (12).

after that - upload into kitchen.

sometimes that helps and kitchen cooks file correctly.
[Desire Themes and Apps] DesirableHTC:
this kitchen must have a curse on me today...... :( I have just gone through the whole process twice, only to find that i can't submit work to the kitchen...... the submit button is not highlighted, thus not letting me click. Now it is probably a step i have taken wrong, but what....

1. add battery (honeycombe, smooth charging)

2. Icon set (black status bar>honeycombe icons)

3. status bar (select status bar(sense)) Carrier (transparent) background (brightsilence)

4. File upload (upload framework-res.apk from power button mod)

5. return to summary to submit work to kitchen (this is where i cannot submit file to cook)

So is it me at fault or what....? All the times i have used this kitchen i have never had any problems with it.
[Desire Themes and Apps] mendozinas:
all fine with your framework.

if you are using CM7 - choose default theme.
[Desire Themes and Apps] mendozinas:
what mods was in red in submit list? to submit work - all mods must be in green or white (file upload must be green).

if there is "generate button" in mod - you need to press it to generate files, othervise mod cannot be used.
[Desire Themes and Apps] CreaB:
There is a generate Button for the notification-bar Icons?!ok so i definitely have to open My eyes while looking :-)

Thx!
[Desire Themes and Apps] mendozinas:
there is generate button for status bar section.

as you said no changes applyed for status bar.

or you was talking about icons?

EDIT: ok. I get it. was my miss-reading.
[Desire Themes and Apps] nic.stl:
I don't have CM7 but I decided to take a default theme ;)

Help needed!

I tried UOT, selected battery and icons mods, uploaded framework and systemUI, flashed and only the battery changed. Tried also kitchens framework (Oxygen ROM 2.0.1) and results were same.

What I am doing wrong, did I miss something? Battery, icons and framework were all "green"
[Desire Themes and Apps] DesirableHTC:
Ahh i see now, but it was the battery mod that was red, it won't let me use a custom battery, but it will let me use a SCB with %..... I wanted the Honeycombe battery......
[Desire Themes and Apps] CreaB:
Ok..i had a look at the kitchen again,but there is no generate Button for black Status bar Icons.

So does anybody have an idea what is going wrong?

Thanks in advance!;-)

"Icon" created fine with V3 but not with V4

I've tried searching but couldn't find an answer as yet. When I used UOT with Liberated FR008 (Aria), I was able to create the icons with no problem with UOT V3. Now with UOT V4, the icons remain as stock. I'm using the same framework-res.apk used successfully in V3 but now it doesn't update the icons in V4. Has anyone seen this? I'm also having the same experiences with my DHD.

Kodein... have you read any of the other posts on this forum? What do you expect mendozinas to do with a statement like that?

If you want to report an error or what you think is an error then include the UOT name and a detailed description of the problem as a minimum so you don't waste mendozinas time.

You could also include phone model, ROM info and so on to make it easier for the developer to help you.

Just wanted to give an update that this still does not work with Nexus S. After install, it causes all the apps to do force close repeatedly. This is with CM7 RC2. Sux that the UOT Kitchen won't fix it to work the google's own native phone! Isn't that where Android is from, google? No respect for their phone?
[Desire Themes and Apps] Zignut:
See my above post and maybe show a little respect for all the hard work the UOT Kitchen team has put into the project. I'm pretty sure whining like a little girlieman won't get you anywhere.

I can't believe the lack of respect and tact from some people on this forum... but maybe it's just me thats old and grumpy ;).
[Desire Themes and Apps] mendozinas:
Look around. On which device forum you are?

Originaly, kitchen was created for Desire roms only. We are very glad it works for other devices too.

But you cannot demand to make it compatible with other phones.

As for nexus - there is solution on phone's own thread. Not sure about Nexus S (I have only Desire).

If you wait a few days - kitchen will support theme chooser from CM7.

I think it will solve a lot of problems, as you will not need to mess with system files (theme chooser installs as program).

and i still am thankfull for all the hard work. i am simply saying why neglect the nexus s(it has been a few weeks now) when it's the native google phone and google's glory. wouldn't it be nice to support their product? it is their os we are using.
[Desire Themes and Apps] suksit:
Thanks! Switched to deodexed ROM and no bootloop anymore :)

BTW, the charging animation is not the same as shown in the preview (I selected UOT Style charging animation) i.e. I don't see the "plug" icon in statusbar when the phone is charging, only number displayed.

I just submitted the framework-res.apk and selected only the battery mod in case you could check it out. The UOT number is UOT-03-12-11-44-1

Thanks for your amazing work!

EDITED:

Just decompiled the cooked apk and found that the charging images doesn't have the "plug" icon. Does this mean we can't get the charging animation that we expected when configuring the battery mod?
[Desire Themes and Apps] wdl1908:
Yeah I noticed this too the stat_sys_battery_charge_anim* icons are exactly the same as the regular ones. I think there is a bug in the kitchen that takes the wrong set of icons for the charge animation.

Hey.

I am busy trying to cook a set of unicolor icons for my Desire (GingerVillain 1.5 rom) But one of the icons is always wrong (also in the 1.3 and 1.4 roms).

The gps icon when fixed is the old gray icon but stretched. The not yet fixed icon is good. I use the black taskbar background and the default gray icons are not contrasting very well in bright daylight . The green (00FF00) icons on a black background are very visible.

The default GingerVillain icons for wifi and network turn green when connected with Google. Nice option, maybe thats also possible with the unicolor icon. white not connected, green (00FF00) when connected.

No big problem but i like the unicolor green icons. Every now and then I try to cook a new set of icons to check if the gps icon is fixed but till now no success.

kitchen features

Good days come to Cyanogenmod 7 owners.

Kitchen now supports Theme Chooser.

Upload your theme's apk and get apk, you can install regulary (unzip UOT and get apk) or flash in recovery as usual.

With different names - you can have few themes installed and change them on the fly.

enjoy and don't forget to Donate if you want new features in the future.

Just for the record, I tried to use the theme kitched to theme the stock (system ui.apk) theme, and it did not theme. It is much smaller than the other theme apks.
