Thanks! So it's just unzipping, changing SystemUI.apk and Framework-Res.apk and rezipping it?

Well i did it for you but what it would be is downloading the "Makingports.zip" opening your systemui.apk with a zip opener placing the systemui/rez folder in in the apk doing the same thing for framework-res.apk then inserting them into the Default.zip to replace the defaut systemui.apk and framework-res.apk.
But all you have to do with the package i uploaded is flash it with cwm as long as you are on the newest build (as of now 18)

Ok, I know how to do next time! :p This theme is really an eye candy! Good job!

All right BroBot! I know I'm a bit impatient...

Hi guys, I have this MetroUI theme set up (thanks BroBot175 and mrevankyle!) and I must say, to complete this theme, you guys gotta buy/try out this app called Gesture Control. With this theme and app, the user experience is really really enjoyable. Do check it out!

Here we go this one works
All i did was batch edit them in photoshop to 600x600
convert from jpeg(causes issues) to PNG
changed the desc.text to 600 600 instead of 1280 800
then rezipped the whole thing in store compression

    Hi all
    Im Brobot175 (Rob) from over on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 forum.
    A very friendly member of your comunity who goes by the name of mrevankyle sent me a PM a few days ago wanting a port of my new theme, MetroUI.
    mrevankyle kindly ported most of the theme for me as i have no experience in Villain Theme installer so all credit in porting this theme goes to him!
    I shall be watching over this thread and answering any questions about the theme itself but mrevankyle is going to cover this thread and answer any questions you have.
    Well heres the theme!

    ^^^not what it really looks like but a good representation^^^

    Metro UI - Brobot175.co.uk - Click Me




    Check out website for screenshots and full change log

    What is it?

    This theme allows you to make your homescreen look like the windows 8 metro. It also themes your notifications pannel and taskbar to fit with the MetroUI.

    What is it compatable with?

    Android Revolution ROM but Evan may help me port it to a few more roms on the eee pad
    To anyone else looking on this Forum is is also compatible with the
    Galaxy tab 10.1
    TouchPad
    Kindle Fire
    Acer a500
    and Asus Eee Pad Transformer


    Whats to come?


    My website is brand new and still in beta so i shall be working on it to clear out any bugs.

    I shall add tutorials on how to customize more of the theme like the widgets.

    More Widgets.

    Any other Bug fixes




    If your tab for any reason goes into a bootloop just flash your ROM again without wipeing anything and it will go back to how you had it

    OK that would be amazing I'm sure people on the a500 forum would greatly appreciate this!

    Basically all the roms in our forum are based on the same leaked base so it should work for all. Besides the cm9 version that can't be hosted on xda because Thor made it.. I will pm you link to those files once I get to my laptop.

    Thanks again !

    Alright so thanks to this guy we have confirmation that the villain theme works on the a500 unchanged. It gave status 0 on the first try but after a re-download it worked so the problem is not with the file. So if you are having issues just redownload it and that should fix your issues. Clearing cache and data could not hurt either.

    Also latest version of desktop visualizer removed the menu to set presets (probobly a bug) so here is the latest not bugged version

    sorry I'm new to this. I flashed Vanilia Theme B4.zip. Am I supposed to flash MetroUITilesAsusB4.zip next? I don't see desktop visualiser 4x4. Thanks for this.

    Nope dont flash that just unzip it on your sdcard. It contains all the files you need to set up the tiles. And you get desktop visualizer from the market (play store now i guess)
