Nice really like it
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] russell1978:
how do you load the Lockscreen Morphs. Do load this with app.

Thanks for the help.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
Ah, I forgot to add how to Metamroph link I will post in the OP too:

Step 1

Download MetaMorph from the Market.

Step 2

Download the MetaMorph file of your choice and place it on your sdcard. I have a folder on my sdcard called "morphs" where I place all of my metamorph files.

Step 3

Open the MetaMorph app, select always allow, then press allow. Select Pick theme. Go to the folder where you put your metamorph files and select the one you want to apply.

Step 4

If you want to apply everything in the morph, then select apply all. MetaMorph will then begin to run through the process of applying the images to your .apk's. This will take a while if there are a lot of .apk's to be skinned.

Step 5

Once MetaMorph has gone through the process of applying the theme, You are done. Unless you applied a morph which has framework-res.apk in it, then you will have to reboot your phone, then you are done
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] russell1978:
O.k I load your them bust dosn't look like your them. The icons dont show up. Do i have change icon my self. Sorry for so many questions. I throught the them would change everthing.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
What Icons do you speak of? I have only themed the system Icons but for Market apps you will have to go to my DarkMarket apps page (link on post #4)and install them seperate. I have not themed every app on the market and really cant so if you need an Icon or something I can make it for your homescreen to apply with ADW or LP. I want to make a ADW Icon pack but I've had no time! Hope it helps! ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
Morph update!

Morph updated to v0.7.1 also added More alternate Transition morphs to give more options to the morphed version and the Flashable version! This was donated by someone who I cannot locate anymore :( lost the page. I also added Morph instructions to the page for the new users to Metamorph! Enjoy!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] russell1978:
After the second flash the system icon took. Thanks badass them.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
Glad you got it working! ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] greenman44:
I tried to do the theme on my g2, with CM 7.0 rc1, got almost to the end of the apply all and it went into FC on the task bar, haven't worked with metamorph before. I am doing a restore to my previous backup and will try again. I hope i can get it to work because it looks like a killer theme.

I have same issue with it. I'm Running frost them and wanted to load his lock page. I can get the lock screen load and then I get blue tooth force close and then the phone reboots and keeps doing same thing over untill I restore the phone. Thanks. I going to load his full them and see if still does it.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] russell1978:
Running cm7.0 rc1

Running DarkGinger-beta-v0.7.1-G2-DesireWIFI-CircleBatt.zip

And load the lock screen them. Everything work great. So for the lockscreen to work you need to have his thems loaded.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] lainvalenajr:
Hey Dark I download metamorph and its telling me I don't have enough space? Any suggestions bro

Edit: I downloaded the app busybox and installed busybox at the bin and not xbin
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] RuncaProfundus:
Wow DJ long time no talk lol. I got a g tablet a couple months ago so I've been lurking in the g tab forums for awhile still been keeping up with the CM nightly but I have a confession...I have not been keeping up with your theme :( lol I'm sorry. Once Cyanogen threw in the theme chooser app I fell in love with the cyanbread theme.

I applaud you for keeping up with these updates so well. I went thru all of this thread and I am truly impressed. If you ever need any help testing anything at all just hit me up. My G2 will proudly serve as your guinea pig haha.

Keep up with all the fantastic work yo. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
Thanks man! :)

Did it work?

Thanks man. I feel ya, gotta try other things. I will hit you a PM if I need any testing. Thanks man! I acyltually made a grab theme for someone. Let me know if you have root and what rom. See ya bro!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] lainvalenajr:
Yea it worked
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] RuncaProfundus:
Do I have root? You serious? lol jk Of course I have root! :D Currently I'm running VEGAn 5.1.1 because I get random bootloops and other errors on VEGAn-7 which is fine IT IS an experimental build.

I was getting restart loops off of nightly 12 after restoring my apps. not sure which one set it off. I'm gonna go ahead and flash 11 now so I can rock your theme once more ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
I know dumb question but the other person didn't and was pushing framework without a backup. I won't help someone destroy another device! LOL Glad to see you back on DG! ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] RuncaProfundus:
After flashing an unstable ROM without having a backup I learned my lesson. Now I have two backups...just in case one fails lol.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:

Kool bro
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] blk_jack:
Just flashed this and it is exactly what I was looking for! Kudos for keeping it so well up to date.

My only gripe lies in the fact that in my opinion the transitions are too overkill for my tastes. I was able to use Metamorph & apply the Stock Transitions though and everything seems peachy after that (even though I did receive an error intially w/ MM?).

Again, thank you for your hard work and I will be following this theme as the nightlys themselves progress.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
I follow you. I did toy with removing them but found adjusting the display settings to "some" transition effects works the best for me. Glad I had some options for you to make it to your taste! Thanks for the feedback and following the theme! Don't forget in post 4 I have themed market apps too!

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] blk_jack:
One issue I've found from playing w/ my phone for the past hour or so is that I keep getting a Market FC (after flashing the DarkGapps 03/11 zip). I've tried clearing the data/cache (from Settings/Applications and Titanium) as well as Fix Permissions in RM and even re-flashing the package, but nothing seems to help. Right now I'm flashing the old gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip package to see if that helps.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
One fix I found was "hopefully you have a full backup before the market issue" to restore just data and cache in advanced restore in recovery. Fixed mine! Hope that helps.

Sent from my DarkGingered CM7 Nexus One!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] lainvalenajr:
Yea I had that kind of issues back then. Ethier you have a bad download or you are using a diffrent nightly. What I did was reflash the current nightly build (19), then flash the google apps and then flash DARKGINGER theme of your choice for your nightly build. See if that works
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] blk_jack:
My initial upgrade process was this: (I was on n-17)

1) Flash n19, reboot, make sure everything worked well.

2) Download DarkGapps & theme of choice, reboot into recovery

3) Flash DarkGinger theme, Flash DarkGapps

4) Reboot

5) Market FC, could not get it running no matter how many cache/data wipes I did.

My backup was for my fully function n17 setup so what I just did was wipe cache/data from Market AGAIN, boot into recovery and restore ONLY data+cache from the n17 backup.

I then rebooted, restored some of my changed settings (changed Theme back to System and CM battery percentage off) and voila, Market worked (with the DarkGinger greyscale header).

I checked my other gapps and everything seemed good to go. I rebooted.

Launched Market AGAIN (worked fine) but this time the header was the regular Green one(??). Take note that I didn't touch the Market app, I just merely rebooted.

Anyway now everything works, even though the Market app has a green header.

Time to call it a night ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
Go figure New Mareket was just released. I'll update tomorrow! Night!

so anyways I have been testing the other animation effects and it works with sense Roms like virtuous
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
Yeah, they should work on any rom.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] lainvalenajr:
Aha i didnt know that.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] MishXT:
i got the rc cm7 rom on my desire z and i downloaded the gapps. i wanna keep it as it is but i really like that dark keyboard, is there any way in getting that keyboard without having to install the darkgapps
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] blk_jack:
Can't wait for a nightly 21 update (since it fixes GPS) ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
Right now I can only offer using my metamorph and only select LatinIME.apk only and it should make the keys black, but the predict color will be orange. You can also try taking that apk from my zip and adb push it to system/app/ or use a file manager to copy paste it there and reboot. It would be located in my main theme zip, not gapps. And you must be running gingerbread to use it. Hope that helps. ;)

Last nightly works great with 21....fyi :)

Sent from my DarkGingered CM7 Nexus One!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
FYI

Nightly 21 works with my #18b or #19 update so go ahead with the last one!

Also

I have to take a theming break a few days, hopefully I can squeeze out at least a DarkGapps update but Facebook takes a while to theme. So might take longer for the update! Sorry but life has to come first and mine is kinda needing me more this week! Thanks for understanding! Working on that Theme Engine too! I will be posting an official APK from me made from scratch to have as a backup way to get her(DG) back from updates! Working hard on that already last 2 days. I might upload a teaser.......want one? He He!!! ;) Night guys be back in a few days!

Ok here is the apk anyway to test out! : Link

1. Download to memory card

2. install with file manager

3. apply templetebread with the DarkGinger preview to your update, Reboot recommended, it will look almost the same with tons in inside pieces missing....you'll see! ;)

Remember this is an un-finished test apk for you to either get by till updates or see what I'm up to!

DJ Darkknight!!!!

Edit! I see #22 is out...good time to try tester!!! ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] blk_jack:
Just updated to nightly 21 and reflashed darkginger on top. People thinking about flashing this ROM should make note that currently the version of Market in the ROM is not the newest and it will not play nicely when you try to load it up. I received endless FCs and had to restore from a previous data/cache backup (though now I've backed up Market w/ TI so we'll see if that works in the future).

That is my only technical gripe with the ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
Yeah, it's like a hit or miss type of thing. I'm not getting any force closes but when the update came it did not open! So I just restored data only and it all works now. I tried to update the market and now it will not open at all! I'm going to figure this one out if it kills me.....Sorry if your having this issue. I've only had a few complaints so haven't spent much time on a fix! New market update will be with new Facebook and whatever comes new in next few days! The theme chooser APK I posted also themes some of the apps inside too but is incomplete! Try it out. Might be surprised! ;)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] blk_jack:
Market works perfectly for me, but I'm using the newest one with the data from another rom where it worked. That being said, Market is un themed, but I would rather have that and have it working than no Market at all. :)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
Ah, I see. Well thanks for helping out! Greatly appreciated. Hoping to update soon.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
Theme Chooser!!!!!!

Added Theme Chooser files for nightlies....Back to the betas!!!!! WIP please be nice if still crude but let me know if something is not working!

This does not mean I'm not going to update a .zip for nightlies. I'm waiting a mod update and still trying to fix the market and facebook updates!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] lainvalenajr:
Awsome lol... So right now it only works with nightly 28? I tried the apk files on nightly 30 but it didn't show up on theme chooser

Let me know what you think. :D
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] misfit61871:
Just installed this theme on my G2 and it is freaking awesome! I love it!!! I want to keep it but I am getting consistent FC's with market. How do I fix this?
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
I had the same issue. Flash stock gapps. Boot, check the market, make a backup in recovery, flash the theme, boot up. If it force closes then just restore data and cache only in recovery advanced restore. All should be good! Only fix I know. Stock gapps here: http://goo-inside.me/google-apps/

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] misfit61871:
Ya I did that advanced restore, makes all the apps normal, loses the darkness and the wi fi and the circle battery icon. But I'll take what I can get.

Thanks for the killer theme though!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
You have to restore data and cache only, not system. Data and cache will not change the wifi and other icons. Try that and let me know.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
You got a hex on you or something? That's so weird. Format all but sdcard in recovery. Flash rom and my new gapps. Boot don't sign in. Flash theme, restore data and cache and cross your fingers cause I'm lost if that doesn't work. O_o

Sent from my DarkGingered CM7 Glacier.
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] misfit61871:
ya I don't get it either. I've tried all that you said.

Here's my process:

Full wipe

Clean install of cm7 stable

Install dark gapps

Boot, sign in restored google back ups, everything working fine except market

Boot into recovery install theme, reboot, everything working but market. Tried the whole process without signing in and still the same.

I tried all the other fixes and it would work for market issues but I would lose my status bar icons and none of the apps were dark they were normal, and I'm following instructions to the letter so I'm at a loss.I'm determined, I really want this theme it's so kick ass!
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
I'm have no idea how the icons turn normal but the market works. I really have no idea sorry. :-(

No worries dude, I got it working with nightly 40. I had instal your apps then the gapps and it's all working just some of the app icons are not dark but the theme is golden, do thank you very much, I love the theme!

Sweet, glad you like it.

[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] misfit61871:
So I'm just gonna run down what worked for me, so if other people are having problems it's here for you to try out as a poss fix, it worked good for me onCM7 nightly 40 and 41, haven't tried it on stable yet. And just so you know this got the theme and MOST of the app icons working, it wasn't a "complete" dark ginger theme fix, meaning the market app and a few others still have the stock icons everything else is the dark theme.

FWIW here,s what I did:

>Downloaded CM7 nightly 40, darkerapps4/14/11 and the arcwifi circlebatt theme, put on root of SD card

>Full wipe

>Flash CM7 and darkerapps, reboot,sign-in(did not restore google back up at this point)

>Reboot into recovery, flashed theme, reboot, at this point everything was good but market was still FCing, so.....

>Flashed gapps from ROM manager, this fixed market FC issue, but made all the apps normal again, so....

>Rebooted into recovery, flashed darker apps AND theme once again, reboot. Theme working great all status bar icons present and accounted for AND market working fine BUT was not dark theme as were a few other apps i.e. maps, navigator and all my restored apps from google back up, which I can live with since I mainly wanted the theme and status icons(although I would prefer that it all matched).

Hope this is helpful, and a big THANK YOU!!!!! to dj for the theme, it looks great with all my zombie wallpapers :)
[G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps] djdarkknight96:
Man, thanks for that run down. I'm so frustrated with the market app cause it works perfect on both my Nexus and my touch 4g. I only had the market fc once and restoring data and cache in recovery fixed it! No problems since then. I have a little OCD with this theme and when it doesn't work perfectly for someone I actually drop everything I'm doing to try and help fix it. I'm so lost why your issues I'm loosing my mind. To hear your still happy makes me happy! :-)

Ya dude I don't know what I have done differently with my phone for the market problem, I wouldn't lose any sleep over it, it's got to be something on my end. I would think a full wipe would clear anything up
