How to port themes to HTC Legend (example Minimal Matte)

[parker09]

Thanks.

Second method works, a lot easier to push the whole folder C:/app/ to /system/app then to do adb push settings.apk /system/app like I was doing before

Anyone found any good themes that work on the HTC Legend phone?

I think we should compile a list in the second post or something for verified working themes?

I like:

GalaxyS meets ElegantSteel

It is depending on the rom you are using, which themes are working and which not.
The best results for this has stock roms (which means non sense roms) because the sense interface has additional folders which is massive work to rewrite all files to these folders.
Generally all themes should work for our legends if you are running a stock rom (like cyanogenmod for example).

Well I've been trying forever to work on a transparent status bar but I can never get it to work other then the lockscreen, saw other ones like MUIU but couldn't get those to port over to CM6.1

I tried this too but the MIUI ROM is designed as a whole ROM with changed CODE for apps and the interface and not only changing the existent pictures with new ones. so this is not working. It is also implemented in the MIUI ROM that the statusbar gets transparent if you are returning to home screen. This is not included in stock code so they had to rewrite this code to implement this feature.
Our method is only to replace existent PNGs with new, themed ones.
(These are only my suggestions so don't punish me if I am wrong in any topic )

You just download the CM nightly from teamdouche and put this Rom instead of CM6.1

Minimal Matte LD pre release boot loops on CM7 n13

I can't get the MinMatt port for CM7 to work on the release version of CM7 either.

So, does anyone have a theme that actually works for the Legend using the CM7 Theme Chooser ?

Every theme is working for legend. You just have to follow this guide. The theme porter can be used to resize the theme from hdpi to mdpi. Yamt is a fully working theme for legend from stock.

It can all be found on the market. If you explain which widget you are talking about, I could possibly help you find it

Do i have to put all of the files from the rom that i want to use it in? Or just the META-INF or what?? Help!

 

[Westi01]

All of the Files. I just wanted to make clear how the file tree has to look like.

I'm talking about tue clock one, with day, date, weather and battery info that you can see in intro banner (the one with several phones all with the same theme) in the first post.

This guide only port themes. How about the HTC skins? How can I make one or convert others from HDPI to MDPI? Thanks.
