That's some nice work...I wish I were technologically inclined to do those things

 

We're going to have to take away your toys, you're having way too much fun.

Well done...

 

If you don't mind, I actually want to learn how to do all "that". If you have time please pm. Im interested but don't know where to start. Your work looks awesome!

 

That does look really nice! Good work!!

 

Wait . I can extract an apk with 7z and edit the pngs ? that's sick hah I didn't know apk's worked like that . Ty .

Yep...Or Winrar (that's what I use). When you recompile the apk, you need to make sure you choose "no compression" (or on wirar it is "Store"). And you then need to use ADB or a root file manager to push the file back in...

Dj, if no one else PMs you, PM me and I'll try to walk you through it (I'm not that great, but I know what's going on and can tell you how). Someone really needs to write a guide on how to do it. I would, but I have to redesign my blog and prepare for E3...If there is not one up when I am done, I'll try to whip something up...

 

Good Job!
I wish I had that kind of time. I am always changing ROMS, lol

 

Very nice of you...

 

You can also use the app NinjaMorph to do this as well... you will need to have the .pngs on you sdcard... but you can do it all on your phone. I moded my LauncherPro to match The Punisher theme by JsinLegacy that I have. Also I moded it while it was a regular app then moved it to /system after I was done...

here's a screen shot (in the before one I had already changed the home button but not the icons):

Before is on the right and after is on the left (your right and left )

 

This is great too (along with MM). I got into this type of modding because I was having issues with MM and BBv1.0. I have now tried both methods, and they work, but now I am faster at using ADB/Winrar/Photoshop than I am using NM or MM...

@ cdogg, I haven't tried, but I believe you can also modify Market apps, but you have to resign them (I believe there is an app over at XDA that will sign an app for you...)

Also, Thanks! It would be awesome if you have time to do a small tutorial on this!

 

You can do market apps as long as you resign them yes... However remember that when you do this, if you upgrade the app you will have to re-theme it and re-sign it...

 

That would be helpful....I do need a base to start at...

 

sounds like fun. I would love to make my pandora widget transparent. is it possible?

 

I really love this theme, how about a MM for it?

 

anybody have any luck resigning an APK? i would love to use the news and weather widget, but with the semi transparent or smoked glass background on my Incredible.

 

VERY INTERESTED.... I'm dyn to learn!!

 

I have not yet tried, but :

Signing made easy.... [ Updated July/2009 ] - xda-developers

 

i tried this and was never able to get it to work.

if anybody has gotten it to work, they should skin the geniewidget for me and post the apk.
