Thanks but I take no credit for this,I just took batt pngs from a theme and added them to the stock ics battery mod for atomic(a little trick I learned from tillaz :D )

I wonder if there is a guide for theming anywhere ? would love to learn how to make whole themes.

Nice work - really like the look of the digital one :)

Yea me two!

How do you make battery mods? I want the circle battery like this but the other one in the atomic topic starts with blue. And it doesnt fit the green theme, i asked the same question yesterday in the atomic theme topic.

Great idea, this'll be the go to place from now on

We really need to get this forum split up like the Blade, it's getting a little hard to navigate now, I'll drop Paul a PM.

So you want the green circle mod on the green theme?

Well all you do is take all the battery & charging PNG's from the circle mod zip and drop them into the green theme before flashing it. They need to go in frameworkres.apk/res/drawable-hdpi. If I remember right that is the correct path.

Euhm cant i just download a batterymod and replace the PNG's in there so you can flash them on all theme's? and how do i brows inside a .apk file since you said thet need to go in "rameworkres.apk/res/drawable-hdpi"

i can tell you some basics...

first you want to install Gimp http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/stable.html

its like photo shop but free & great for editing .png

open gimp & drag & drop the png's you want to edit

easy way to change the colour of things its to click the colours tab then select HUE-saturation, from here you can move the sliders to change the colour,.

avoid .9.png they have a complicated way of themeing.. might write a guide some time though

Thankyou Tillaz,I will see if I can come up with some awesome atomic themes.Do you mind if I use one of your themes as a template ?

its ok, also if you get a png that says hue-saturation operates only on RBG colours just click image / mode / RGB

then it will work, no need to change it back after

how do u install the mods?

Flash in recovery,but it is only for Atomic v3c.

It may work on older versions,but the mod is based on updated battery add-ons by tillaz for v3c.

also anyone getting into this be prepared for some seriously tedious work lol

especially when you see the framework-res.apk has 1,500 png's to edit hahah its a nightmare biggrin.gif

EDIT: if gimp had a batch HUE pluge-in it would be a breeze laugh.gif

On gingerbread systemui.apk needs theme too right? Or is that only cm7?

Oh well I got nothing but time :lol:

Would it be easy to port a theme to skate,assuming you would only need to replace all the PNG etc and not have to individually mod every single one.

And of course would need to ask permission from the original themer and give credit that you are porting his/hers theme.

edit: just found frankish's theme guide:

Thanks for the tips so far, now here's a question.

Say i want to edit a launchers appearance, would i open the apk in winrar then go to res/drawable-hdpi and edit the png files.

but how would i go about applying these changes? just re-install the launcher apk or does it have to be done through CWM?

Sorry for all the questions :)

James
