Sup.
I was getting a little bit bored with the standard Froyo look, and I started diggin the forums. I found that some time ago, cryshop made a nice looking Lockscreen and NavBar.
Since with the release of B 0.8, Blay0 has included an extended power menu by ogo2, thus preventing us flashing those skins via recovery without brakeing the framework.
Since not everyone are familiar with modding the com.htc.resources.apk or are pretty much too lazy to do such a thing i did it myself.

INSTRUCTIONS :)rolleyes:)

Backup your current com.htc.resources.apk by mounting /system/ via Clockwork Recovery and pulling it via adb:

Code:
adb pull /system/framework/com.htc.resources.apk C:\YourPathHere
Download the modded com.htc.resources.apk.zip, unzip it, copy it to the same place where your adb.exe file is stored and push it via adb:

Code:
adb push com.htc.resources.apk /system/framework/com.htc.resources.apk
Reboot and thats it.

All credit goes to cryshop for the skins, and Blay0 for a fantastic ROM.
Be aware! If you made some changes to com.htc.resources.apk by yourself, you will lose them all by pushing this file!

Click.

Enjoy. Greets.

Thanks for all your work :)

I am looking to put the espresso launcher/dock on my Legend, just the launcher, not the icons.
Is there a way to do this?

I am on Blay0's ROM.

The launcher I am looking for is this one

Wow, that's a fast reply, thx!

That launcher is exactly what I was looking for :)
If I want to only use the launcher, so keep Bloy0's espresso lockscreen, what must I do?

Thx again!

edit:

I think I did it myself, don't know if I did it correctly though:

1. Opened Bloy0's drawable-mdpi from com.htc.resources.apk with 7zip
2. Opened your drawable-mdpi from com.htc.resources.apk with 7zip
3. Dragged and dropped from Bloy0's apk into your apk:
- lockscreen_arc.png
- lockscreen_arcglass_bottom.png
- lockscreen_arcglass_top.9.png
4. Closed 7zip and adb pushed your now modded apk files to their locations.

Anyway, it's working I guess, thanks again :)

Any chance for S-ON users? I hoped that using this guide will overcome the read-only issue, but all my dreams fade away....

EDIT: I have performed the process through Recovery MOD and now everything is just fine and looks GREAT!!!! Thanks!

Question: Is it possible to have these nice looking sense attributes in white, I mean, like the Metal skin in the Sense 2.1?
