Root [Theme] REVOlution for Droid X Froyo 2.2 R2 (9/14/2010)

[brxtacy]

Howd you get the retro clock and active weather like the HTC setup? Beautiful widgets?

hello all, im a complete noob so i might be overlooking something simple..i got adb set up, i have the items extracted to the locations that fabolous set above, but when i type this line of code

cp /sdcard/revo/framework-res.apk /system/framework/

i get the error

cp: /sdcard/revo/framework-res.apk: No such file or directory

any help would be appreciated!

Make sure you are in PC Mode with your PC connection. If your SD card is mounted to your PC this phone will not be able to find it

Halffrozen's clock, and date/weather widget are GREAT!!

Where can I find those??

PS. Awesome instructions, Fabolous its rare these days to find instructions that work flawlessly!

 

[kensdavid]

Minimal is best.

This is gorgeous! Where can I find the widgets?

Looks like beautiful widgets, HalfFrozen is going to have to tell you the skin though

I'm having a few problems with this theme. First is that the notification bar doesn't go away when I show the (Sense-style) previews on LauncherPro and ADW Launcher. The second is that the message boxes with radio buttons seem to have a degree of transparency -- is this what's supposed to happen? I'll post a screenshot if need be. Thanks.

Well I don't think the notification bar is supposed to go away mine doesn't, and yes I think there is suppose to be a certain degree of transparency.

Ah, so you have both of these issues? (if they are issues)

I'm fairly certain the notification bar goes away when previews are shown on LauncherPro and ADW. The transparency is just a bit of a distraction -- it's just transparent enough to make me think there's something wrong with my screen.

Yeah I don't remember the notification bar ever going away with LP and the previews. And I don't think that that would have anything to do with the theme

Okay, thanks for the help. I'm not sure if these two issues are enough to make me go back to the default -- which hopefully should just be a case of pushing the original framework-res and services.jar back.

and possibly metamorphing the stock icons back. Did you save those files?(services and framework)
And Fab said he is going to make a way to get back to the "stock" theme

One more problem: using drocap 2 restarts my phone. Any ideas?

Try shoot me

Try shoot me

Will do, but I'm still scared by any app restarting my phone

I remember someone having this happen to them before. But that was the only person and nothing has came from it. And it has never happened to me

Raise the voltage or decrease the processor frequency. Reboot = instability. Instability = bad.

 

[Fabolous]

Those looking to get back to stock can use this file:

Back_to_stock.zip

There are extra apps in the MM on purpose, since you can use this with other themes as well (and possibly more things will be themed in future releases of REVOlution)

Use the same instructions as installing this theme.

 

[MR_2FNGRZ]

What do I do with these Goodies????

How do I use them??

What you're doing is right, you just need to change the SHORTCUT and not the ICON. Doing it this way will allow your custom icons to stay instead of reseting whenever you open an app or rotate your phone


**right member, wrong quote. Lol. This is for your question about changing the launcher pro icons and getting them to stay **

Would I need Launcher Pro in order to have the "clear glass" dock shown in the first screenshots of the REVOlution theme? I am not much of a fan of Launcher Pro, since it won't let me use my Contact Quick Tasks and it seems to want to shrink all of my custom dock icons down to small sizes (relative to the Stock X Phone and Contacts icons).

I was hoping that there would be a way to alter the dock and dock icons without using a Launcher, possibly through the use of these themes.

P.S.- Was the glass-like Power Control widget that you showed in your picture a part of the theme's alterations, or was it a separate download?

I installed the Revolution theme just to see if I could do it. I am still an Android noob, but your instructions were very easy to follow and I had no problem.

Thanks for the great Theme!

 

[Vipersandubs]

so if i do install this is there a way to take this theme off, revert to original theme? somebody please respond

 

[Kamilli0n]

Look a few posts up

 

[Kamilli0n]

When can we expect a 2.2 compatible version?

2.2 is odexed, ew....

I think we'll have to wait until someone puts out a deodexed version.

 

[ThatOneDude05]

Can this work with ADW or does it have to be with Launcher Pro? This is going to be my first theme to install hopefully I don't brick the phone
