YOU MUST USE METAMORPH TO USE MY FILES. YOU CANNOT FLASH THIS VIA RECOVERY CONSOLE

Here are links for MM:

XML Version (better way to go) - http://www.androlib.com/android.application.stericson-xda-metamorph-ppFw.aspx
THM Version (older way) - http://www.androlib.com/android.application.stericson-xda-metamorph-xnFD.aspx


I take no credit for the work of the icons. I just took them from various themes and put them all together. This is my first attempt at making anything to share with the community. So if it sucks, let me know. If you like it, let me know.

I took icons and other various mods from various themes that I have found and put them together. Main thing changed is task bar icons, lock pattern and a few other things. If I get a good feed back on this, I will continue to add more to it. This could work on Aloysius snow but I am not 100% sure as I didnt test it. So if you do, please let me know so I can say it works for that one or not.

You might have to apply the MM 2-4 times to have everything take effect. Dont know why, but it just does. Known issue.

Change log

Removed time from task bar (thanks to jschisurf for this)

As always, NAND before doing this as I am not responsible if this messes up your phone. And you need the latest MM that uses XML. If you need it the old way, let me know and I can create it as well.

sexxxxayyyyy!!!!!
whats the latest MM that uses XML all about?
Is this what I've been waiting for? Sense gone and JIT enabled??
and is there ANY way that notification bar could be flavored white?

and what is that beautiful clock that you have?
and btw GIVE ME

You can find MetaMorph in the market. There is a free version. Before, MM used .thm extensions and a lot of devs never switched over to the new format, XML. XML is easier, so that is what I went with.

This is not a ROM. This doesnt remove anything or add JIT. And this should work on Aloysius snow as it doesnt replace the white bar with a black one. It only replaces files that I told it to and the task bar color wasnt one of them. This should work with any ROM that was ported from the Hero as the files it replaces are the same names.

I've been running the non snow, Aloyv12
I want the white Notification bar so I downloaded Snow and about to flash that then remove sense and enable JIT,( good thing there is a thread dedicated to it)

Oh, I thought you were on snow. I will look into making a white taskbar one. Not going to be very simple since I have to change text color and what not. But I will look into it.

do I flash your file on top of AloySnow, then use MM?
I like learning =]

also, I can't find a free MM, it only has Pro for $2.99

My file is not a flash update. All you do is get the free version of MetaMorph. Copy my .zip to your sdcard and then open MM and go to the location where you put the .zip I created and then hit apply all and your set. If you cant figure, just get on chat and ill walk you through it again, lol

I just put v03 on my aloysius v12. I have the wifi satellite and the signal strength indicator as in v03, but I still have the circular 3g, which I like but I also have the blue battery icon, not the round battery icon as in the v03 pic up above. However, my clock is gone from the task bar.

Run the MM again. Sometimes you have to run it multiple times to take. There were some I had to run 3 or 4 times to work fully. Dont know why.

Also, mine wont change the 3G. I am using v11, that is why I have that in my screen shot.

Re-ran MM. All is good. I had to do it 3 times, but it all seems to be working. Very nice. I like the blue. Goes with my whole theme already. Blue case, beach scene and all.
Thank you.

I tried earlier, and didn't work... ill try again here in a min. Do you know if you can use MM to apply different things? I used MM to put on the OSU lock screen... can I have that, AND yours running in the same rom? Or will those affect each other?

Please include what error you got and which version you are trying as well as if its the THM or the XML version.

And yes, you can use it with the OSU lock screen. I use that myself. My files dont touch those files. That is the beauty of MM. It doesnt replace an apk like a flash update does, it just replaces files inside the apk....


O-H-
