Root {MetaMorph}Transparent Chaos

Sorry, totally didn't read the part where you said it was in your data/app folder. What you will need to do is, open your command prompt and change directories to your SDK/tools folder. Plug in phone, but do not mount of course.

adb pull nameofyourFBapp.apk /data/app

then rename to Facebook.apk

adb push Facebook.apk /system/app

If you don't use adb, you can try using Root Explorer, not sure how well that works for this kind of thing, although I am not sure why it wouldn't...

i use root explorer. just select move, and move it to /system/app. then rename it to Facebook.apk and reboot. then apply the theme

Will this work on a droid2 running Green ROMs? Sorry, I'm pretty new to this, but I really like this theme.

No, this won't work for you as I believe you have a Droid 1 or 2? The resolution as well as a few other things will not allow this to work on your phone.

Does anyone know if this works on Green ROMs 2.4.5? I am extremely new to any of this, so any help will be appreciated.

I realize you are new, but I thought what I said was pretty clear... No, it will not work due to different resolutions. Your phone has a much higher resolution format (HDPI) than the Eris (MDPI) thus the images will not show up as they are pushed to a folder that your phone ignores.

sorry I didn't realize i was posting this twice. Thanks for clearing it up though.

wow i have tried this 10 times and I feel like I am missing a step (or maybe it doesnt work because I'm using the newer version of Facebook??)

using vanilla tazz 2.2.1 awd and DiY OwnSki here are the steps I'm taking. (I am rooted have metamorph, and have busy box)

-I attached phone to computer and loaded trasparent chaos to my sd card
-open metamorph, start checks
-(i've already extracted and unzipped the file so i dont htink i have the zip anymore)
-main menu
-pick existing theme
-transparent chaos (i also have dark metal, and transparent widgets, niether of which work for me)
-click on the xml file
-apply facebook
-prompted to reboot
-upon reboot, app is still default blue and white
