can anybody use these? - Hero CDMA General

i found these high res icons on deviantart. they look freaking awesum but i have no idea how to place them on my hero to replace the default icons. anybody have a clue how to do it or maybe you can use them.
http://bharathp666.deviantart.com/art/Android-Icon-Templates-150559012

heres the zip of them too. i dunno if someone can make these so we can flash them or maybe make an apk file?

they are the 2.1 icons. if you go into the market and search android 2.1 you will find the icon pack. only hitch is you have to have bettercut to use them
I would like to see a rom cooked with these icons though as I like them better than the stock 1.5

gbhil's 1.6 AOSP ROM has them cooked in BTW... couldn't you just open the PSD files in Photoshop, save them as .png (or w/e they have to be), then add them in following the tutorial for skinning Fresh 1.1?

yeah you probably could im just really tired right now and being lazy but I will more than likely do it.
and I have tried that 1.6 build but im not a big ran of the vanilla roms

Same here, but they are actually nice once you install the HTC IME and push the Googlebits to it. I just wish I could get SMS working haha.

Fix your link dude. LOL

i would use gbhils 1.6 because I love the vanilla look so much more just i need bluetooth to work

well according to this thread: http://forum.androidcentral.com/wallpapers-ringtones-themes/5231-icon-packs.html you can use that zip file and flash it like any other add on. i tried and got an error about google signing missing or something? i just wondered if anybody could look into it and maybe make something we can flash or even an apk we can install on our hero's? i really don't want a homescreen replacement as ive tried panda and didn't like it. i just want to change the icons up.

sorry guys im not trying to be a pain but like others i have my hero set up like i want but the only missing thing is changing the icons up. id try to make an apk or zip i can flash but i have no clue where to start and probably don't have time tonight to do it. the funny thing is in that link i posted "where i got the zip from" he says you can flash this but when i tried i got an error half way through.
plus the fact im new to the hero and im still learning this stuff.

just download bettercut and the android 2.0 icon pack if you want the easiest way to do it

If it needs to be signed, I'm pretty sure you can do that in Flipz's pre-kitchen. Once I finish my homework (high school ) I'll see if I can sign the .zip and then I'll upload it.

jus signing the zip isnt going to do anything as it is just an image file. for it to actually change the icons you would have to go into framwork-res on the rom you are useing change the icon pngs inside the correct apk. then add an update script and zip and sign it.

i don't know much, but in that zip contains all the png's already. i assume we would just have to make a script to execute the install? i dunno just a thought as im clueless about it.

yeah i installed open home full and the icon pack. WOW it looks like crap. icons are all distorted. i hope we can get this working , if not maybe ill go in and try to modify fresh 1.1 rom's icons myself tomorrow and reflash it.

well looks like im going to be up for awhile so maybe ill start work on the files.

Now if someone who knows manila would extract the AT&T them from these.. In a perfect world, it'd be a .CAB, kinda like the one 3DWall makes.
I promise an e-beer to whoever makes that happen =)) I'm sure others would be grateful too!

Anybody willing to extract it?
oops double post.

In help installing themes for a noob like me

Well as the title implies im kind of new to do this and I been having trouble intalling theme. I install the cab on my phone i dont know how to activate it. If anybody could help i would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
copy cab to your phone, (DONT extract it on the pc, the PC sees cab files as a type of zip, if you see 4 files with strange names, you extracted it,,, dont.) then open file manager on phone, browse to cab file, click to run it.
Thanks for replying but i actually did do that but it wont show the theme, is there something extra i have to do?

if it's home themes then once you have run the cab file, then go to your settings/ all settings/ home/ and you have to pick the theme from the list of choices/ press ok/ and then exit.
yeah i also did that, but t still wont show up. i installed over and over both on the phone and storage card memory, but it doesnt show up in the list of themes.
in that case now would probably be a good time for more info,,, what theme? are you running cookies? what rom?(are you aware that some mods only work on certain win / sense versions?)
Tmobile HD2 USA with cookie home tab editor
os version 5.2.21892(21892.5.0.89
manila-2.5.20121412.2
Rom- 2.13.531.1(90963)WWE
radio 2.10.50.26
i browsed through the forums and was trying to install these, among the few ( there was a glass theme from another thread dont remember)
I believe it was the dark crimson series among others. I tried almost all, didnt work.

If it's the dark crimson series that I've seen, that's for a previous version of WM (6.1). You'll need to make sure that any themes you choose specifically state they're designed for WM 6.5

Ok, I still do not get it? This is obviously the right way to do it, but how? What do I do with that APK?
Sorry I am new to ROM cooking, my ROM works awesome but I want to add some custom wallpapers to my ROM and change the default. This seems to be a common question with no easy answers.

you can easily unzip the apk file in Linux and do what you want to it and then rezip it in store mode and sign it. ( tadaaaaaa, it is it)
or in windows, change the apk to ZIP and Unzip it and then do what you want and then zip it in store mode change to apk and sign it in linux (or with cigwin in windows), again ( TADAAAAA, it is it)...

Could you explain a bit more?
The file htc-resource.apk contains the default background. But when I open it as a zip, I dont see any file which could be the default background. On decompiling with apkmanager, it tells me it has dependencies.
I know this thread is old, but I have the same question
If you are using the latest rom FroYo I suggest you look in the folder:
\SYSTEM\customize\resource

Modifying them there just shows them in Gallery. It doesnt make the background the default loaded when the rom is first installed
In framework-res.apk is what you need

Thank you! But when I changed the default wallpaper.jpg there, it showed that wallpaper for a second while booting up, and following the language and country setup, immediately reverted to the other one..I'm guessing there's one other location where this setting is present
HtcAddProgramWidget.apk - framework-res.apk - \SYSTEM\customize\resource
They are the only places where you can find wallpapers HTC (ammen you're not working on a custom ROM)

Eh, here's a better one.
Download:
Bootscreen: http://www.mediafire.com/?ph1fb37x495moeq
Bootsound: http://www.mediafire.com/?kvovzrjr99b8ixx
(remember to rename the bootsound to PowerOn.mp3 and back the old one up!)
Enjoy and please provide feedback!
looking nice
Thanks! Do you have any requests for other bootscreens?
sorry for this, haven't tried changing bootsound, basically how do you change that one? thanks man
Back the original one up in /system/sounds/lgeSounds/PowerOn.mp3, download this one, rename it to PowerOn.mp3 and put it in the same place.
Could u make a bootscreen of HP Lovecraft's Call of Cthulhu
Depends if it's bootable.
You know how to change is it our in this case add it in miks Cm7 rom
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App
Umm, well if you want it in that ROM I'll go speak to Mik.
Well I posted out in the thread never got a response I don't want our in the rom I just want to know how to do it

Hmm... To tell you the truth, I have no idea. I am using the stock v20g ROM + root and tweaks btw. You should go find the special tutorial for applying bootscreens on the V or your ROM.

Applying the bootanimation is cake. I should have been more clear. The sound file folder doesnt exist in the path listed above. Ive tried various different things to get this to work and asked about it before in other threads. But nobody knows.
Thanks for the reply guess Ill go rip apart the stock rom and see where virgin hides their sounds.

Ah, I see. Yeah, guess you gotta do that if the sound is not the same as the original LG one (you can check that out in a recent video on my YouTube channel).

[Q] Changing my Verizon N3 Theme

I was just curious to know if I could take the Wi-Fi and LTE indicator from one theme and add it to another? I like the indicators from Bobcats theme, but am using Blak X for my theme and its just white bars.
I did look around for answers, and couldn't find anything that seemed to match what I was asking. Any help or direction would be appreciated, and clearly I am new to this, otherwise I wouldn't have wasted anyone's time if this was asked differently and answered.
Just some guidance is all I'm looking for.
Thanks-
Wow... nobody has answered yet? Yes, you can. They are simply png's in systemui, but it can only be used for personal uses

I've seen build prop edits that semi worked. So I should be able to pull the pngs from another system ui zip it up and flash?
Have you ever used 7zip? You will have to do it on a computer, but you don't even have to unzip your rom or decompile the systemui.apk. Right click on the zip, choose open archive with 7zip, then navigate within the folders to systemui and simply replace the pngs. You will need to make sure they are named exactly the same though
Team BlackOut... or Back Out
Btw, you could also use root explorer too, but I've never used it before so not sure how people go about doing it that way

Yeah, nobody answered lol.. till now. Thanks @Train88 and @neopolotin75 for your replies and guidance.
@Train88 I tried using root explorer early on and kinda fumbled stuff up in there. I did see using 7zip before and finally had the time to dl it to the pc.
@neopolotin75 I appreciate the offer, I just wanted the guidance. If you have the time, I'd appreciate it, if not no worries.
All of these themer's do so much already and produce such amazing work, I wanted to just know/learn how to do simple mods to my ROM without the burden of someone having to do it for me.
Thanks again :good:
Team BlackOut rocks BTW :good:
