zanderman112 presents to you:

Metro UI


This is a port of the "Metro UI" aka WP7 theme. So, i guess credit to Microsoft for their hard work ^_^



*/Insert obligatory warnings here: I, zanderman112,
*/am not responsible/liable for your phone.
*/The modifications you are making are of your
*/own free will, and as such, are your responsibility.
*/Side effects of flashing this theme include:
*/World Peace, Samsung Epic 4G hardware
*/driver source being released, and [insert upside here].

Now to the thanks list:

kennyglass123: for the stock deodexed framework.
darkierawr: EI22 theme i used many images from. (it may look very similar to his theme)
toadlife: Everything framework based, Testing
dreamsforgotten: The themeing guide.


If i forgot to add you, please let me know, and i'll change that asap!

Now, before we get to the theme,
if you really want to show support,
click the donate link by my profile pic,
it will go to Rob aka ptfdmedic,

He does a lot for us, meanwhile taking

Ive redownloaded this theme several times, and ive flashed it over FC09 Cut n Paste ROM, and the Stock FC09 ROM both MTD, and the installation aborts every time... Never recall having this issue before... Ive wiped cache/dalvik before each attempt and ive tried mounting system too but no luck... anyone else having this issue?

Hrmm..that shouldn't be happening..I bet I messed up my script. Can you open this theme zip in winrar or 7zip, take the updater-script from Epic Blurness, and put it in this zip? You'd have to manually mount system, but that's no biggie.

The error you quoted is the same one i got all those times. gonna get my 7zip on rizzight now... thx

.-:Update, 4/7/12:-. I did as you suggested, i took the update script from Blurness, and replaced the on in the MetroUI theme and boom, tha flyness is now a reality. Actually a real simple fix, so if any of you out there want to try this theme give it a go its well worth it...i did it all from my phone with Root Explorer by doing the following steps:

1....I already had Blurness on my SD Card, so using Root Explorer i went into the following folders, EpicBlurness.zip>META-INF>com>google>android and then i long pressed on Updater-Script and extracted it.

2....I then long pressed on the MetroUI.zip and extracted the theme.

3....I then went to the folder where the above two files were extracted to, and put the Updater-Script file from Blurness into the MetroUI>META-INF>com>google>android folder, replacing the one that was already there..

4. i then backed out of MetroUI until i could see the MetroUI folder, long pressed it and then chose Zip File..

5.... once the new MetroUI was zipped up i went into CWM, wiped cache and Dalvik, mounted system and then got my flizzash on and the my phone was mo fly...thanks OP for this theme, you ballin....

AproSamurai has a thread on it, but this is the gist of it:

On stock we have: BML partition scheme, and RFS file system
On custom roms we used to have: BML Partition scheme, EXT4 file system
On Custom roms now we have: MTD partition scheme, YAFFS2 file system.

MTD has resizable partitions, and allowed the devs to make /system larger to fit ICS, by making /cache smaller. We also got some more /data.

From what I understand it has none of the mods baked in... if zander doesn't mind and I have some time today maybe I can throw some of the more popular mods in and upload here...???
