tnx.

its not very easy, but not hard too.
only moving images is not enoght.

I made some scripts, to check what changes theme makes on system and moved those images, renaming them and checking for patch9 images, after that moved xmls (renamed) and images from those xlms (also renamed), after that corrected values (colors etc) in system files.

it was done half automated, half manually.
Glad it worked for you.

Gosh, that does sound hard work. I dont think thats for me :(

which one you preffer better?
"Version K, White numbers" or "Version K, White Glowing" (without glowing)?

I would've said "Version K, White Numbers" to match the statbar icon set... but the battery icon preview shows them as glowing... Is that an error? or are they actually glowing?? If they are, that would be awesome!! (plus you need to import the glowing icons now ;) lol)

You're a star, man! Seriously, thanks for doing this!! :D

No problem, with good will all work can be fully automated, but I don't think it will be very popular.

Do you mean like an upload framework and system UI, then choose rom from a drop down and it could port your framework theme to the kitchen framework copy?

That would be very cool, but yes not many people have particular needs that kitchen cannot already cook.

The nice thing about the theme.apk you ported for me was the loading icon, the glow on the top of each app, and the glowing pop up. I think if those things alone could be put in kitchen, it would be amazing.

I have few:
1. Your did not mentioned your UOT file name
2. Use other scripting (Edify or Amend)
3. Check workaround for flashing in "How to" page

1. Kitchen have nothing with BT working
2. Odexed roms runs fast, but they are unable to modify.
You can modify deodexed rom, and later odex it.

I think we need the glowing icon set next man, the glowing ones look so much better than the regular 'circle' ones, but as they were glowing, I thought it would be too hard to automate - the battery icon looks awesome though!

Any chance of getting those in there please pal?

1. file name-UOT-04-20-07-02-1
2. tried both
3. the "how to" page needs to be dumbed down a bit, i'm no pro.

update: i changed my rom from cm6 to fr008. i'm wanting a custom boot animation but no matter what i do it will not flash; custom status bar, fonts, and icons will flash however.

fr008 - means nothing to me. I even don't know your device.

you can place bootanimation.zip manually (from unziped UOT), or check your rom's zip for that file and select same path in the kitchen.

I've used xda as an example.

1) where the xda app tabs are at the top, there is a nice blue glow.

2) loading icon in popup

3) glow around edge of pop-up.

Really nice

HTC Aria, FR008 Froyo sense rom. bootanimation.zip is located in "system/customize/resources"
i select that as the location when selecting the boot animation from the website.
last UOT i tried to flash and failed to flash was UOT-04-20-07-22-1

I have tried to do it manually. I have also tried different roms. anytime i try a custom boot animation it fails to flash.

try to remove bootanimation.zip manually and then flash UOT. Mount /system from recovery menu before flashing.

i'm gonna go ahead and give up for 2 reasons

1. is 2 a.m.
2. idk wtf you're talking about "mount/system from recovery"
see no such option.
its 12am (don't forget we are from whole globe here :))

I'm talking about mounting your /system partition before flashing UOT.
flashing script is universal as posible, but for some devices it fails, so in recovery meniu choose "mounts" (or smth like that) and in submenu "mount /system"
After that flash UOT.

    How kitchen works

    Kitchen originally was build for HTC Desire, but now it supports most devices with Android OS.
    Kitchen takes files from your rom and adds modifications you choose.
    It works for most custom deodexed roms: Froyo (2.2) and Gingerbead (2.3).
    You can use kitchen with stock odexed roms (if you have .odex files in your rom - kitchen works for you too)

    How to use kitchen

    1. Go to Kitchen page http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/

    2. Browse through available mods and choose what you need (don't forget to press Generate preview if theris such button)

    3. Go to File upload section and upload your files or choose rom from kitchen's list (most roms in the list is for HTC Desire)

    Files needed to upload:
    Froyo rom: framework-res.apk
    Gingerbread rom: framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk
    Gingerbread with sense rom: framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk and com.htc.resources.apk
    Cyanogenmod7 rom: Cyanbread.apk or Androidian.apk or any theme for ThemeChooser (rename as you like it to apear in theme menu)

    NOTE 1: if you uploading theme apk - do not upload any other files (you just waisting trafic, because kitchen will ignore additional files)

    NOTE 2: Font packs and Bootanimation do not requires uploading files.

    4. Go to Summary section. All choosed mod must be in green background. If there is mod in red background - it means you did not finished it.

    press Submit work to kitchen

    5. Remember UOT file name. You can wait for a kitchen to cook your request, but after 5min waiting will be stopped (nothing to worry about).

    6. Go to Pickup page http://uot.dakra.lt/pickup/ and wait for your file to appear (it can take up to 30min or more)

    7. Download UOT zip into SD card of your phone

    8. Reboot into recovery

    9. Wipe cache and dalvik-cache (just in case). Do not make factory reset.

    10. Flash UOT zip

    11. Reboot phone

    How get files for kitchen

    Check your How-to page


    What to do of the UOT-......... ZIP file

    1. Reboot into recovery.
    2. choose "install zip from sdcard"
    3. choose "choose zip from sdcard"
    4. locate your file UOT-... .zip in SD
    5. confirm "YES - install UOT ... .zip"
    6. wait for script to finish
    7. reboot phone

    If you cooked file for ThemeChooser - you can unzip UOT and install apk as regular one. After that - select new theme in Theme Chooser and reboot phone.

    WARNING! Flash UOT file after you have first boot.
    If you flashed new rom, boot up your phone first time
    and after that reboot into recovery to flash UOT file.


    What to do if you get SHTF error

    Kitchen uses inteligent approach to your files and tryes to fix most of errors, but sometimes apk tools fails to recompile your files and kitchen can't do nothing.
    If you get SHTF error and want to ask for help in forum - please, mention UOT file name and ROM or Theme you are using. Also, telling your device will be very helpfull.

    If you using popular ROM/Theme - you can try to cook our corrected framework-res.apk from the list.

    Disclaimer
    • It took a lot of effort and time from us to make this kitchen and it takes a lot more to maintain it .Users should realise this and appreciate the work done.
    • Bugs and errors (except decompiling error) will be tried to solve but we need the code you receive back when you upload your file. backups of the same will be kept for 12 hours. so if you have an error respond within that time
    • We are not responsible for any damage that occurs to your device by the use of the themes created here though if such an unfortunate event occurs do tell us we'll be happy to help
    • There is a lot more to come in the near future like changing the status bar,icons, notification screen, the popups etc etc.
    • Suggestions are welcomed for future releases.

    So iwent through the whole process and uploaded the cyanbread theme apk. from theme chooser, it completed the upload but when I go to "pick-up" section how do I identify which file is mine?

    the "file upload" sevction did give a UOT-xx-xx-xx-x to identify exactly which file is the one I created..

    Thanks
    u must submit work in "Summary" section - after that you will get UOT name.

    It might have been a bug but it was a welcomed one! Please bring it back! :eek:
    Seriously, is there any way to implement it? The known method (editing notification_config.txt) doesn't solve the problem, it creates an empty space (see attachment). I'm sure I'm not the only one who would use it.
    TIA.
    this can be hard to complete.
    removing this mod can cause FC's as system still tryes to use it.
    will see what can be done.
