NEW THEME CREATOR TOOL
Avatar Team is proud to present the first beta release of Theme creator tool. It is a QT based desktop application to edit themes.
Themes created using this tool are compatible with Avatar ROM and Cyanogen ROM. Similarly you can edit both Avatar Themes and Cyanogen themes.
Download the theme apk and open it using the theme creator tool. You will see a screen to edit the resources. After editing the resources, save the apk and install on the device.
What you can do with this tool ?
1. There are 1000's of resources that can be themed in Android. We change only a small set of them and if you want to theme more resources you can use this tool.
2. We make some mistakes when creating a theme. Eg: SMS time stamp color was not proper in some of our themes. You can now use this tool to fix it.
3. We cannot satify all the users with a theme. Eg: If you want to have a darker orange shade in denim theme you can now do it using this tool.
4. You can import an existing theme, change some of the resources we modified and you have a brand new theme.
Upcoming features:
1. Ability to create a new theme from scratch.
2. Import MiUi mtz theme file and convert it to theme apk which is compatible with AvatarROM and CyanogenROM.
3. Upload your new themes to our server so it can be used by other AvatarROM users.
4. Html5 based new theme creator tool which is more elegant and user friendly.
