You have to change the icons in each apps apk file by decompiling it and changing it then recompiling it. May not always work with paid apps

but the statusbar icons for juicedefender are also included in the suave hd redone theme, so i think there also has to be a way for avast and atk to include them in the theme, correct me if im wrong
so does anybody know how to include that statusbar icons into the theme?

Link me to the theme. As this should not be. Ill let you know how it is done

ill send it later to you also the icons... im at school atm.
thabks for your help so far

Ok this is an MIUI theme. Sorry but I have no idea how and I wont work on it. I took a fast look and it seems that there is a file in the zip for each app. unzip the theme, open the app apk with 7zip and swap out the images. Once again I am sorry. If I had known it was MIUI I wouldnt have offered to try and help. There are a few threads around for MIUI themes. Could ask in one of those

np buddy but thanks for ur answers so far
just hope that anybody knows how to and could help me

I did tell you how to try in my post though.
Good place to start

get stockframework (least errors)
get apkmanager (availbale in this forum)
decompile the apk
use your photoediter to change colors
compile the apk again
copy the pngs from the compiled apk and replace it in the framewrok you want.

Taking requests. I will port the theme!

Hi guys, I ported the honeycomb theme few weeks ago and it seems like a lot of people liked it.
So I decide to stick with porting the themes and modifying a bit with my own taste instead of making a theme on my own.
So if you guys have Any requests please comment here on this thread. I will choose one of the theme you guys requested and start porting over.
Please include the link.
Hi would it be possible if you can port this theme Lucid http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=886971 for Bionix 1.3.1 thanks
it'd be cool if you can port the "Sublime" theme from the same link.
oh yup! +1 for lucid! I had lucid on CM7. its so nice

[Q] Gingerbread Icons

i saw a post once that said something about changing the icons in the status bar to gingerbread and also had the option to remove clock and recent apps.
it said something like...
gingerbread Icons v4 (no recent apps)
does anyone know where it went?
i googled and all that came up was roms being ported over from gingerbread.
once these icons get found... im prolly gonna post an update to my theme.
thats why i need them! :O

My SupraMOD has this, get V3, V4 is unstable. You can grab it from my site (sig) or check this forum.
SupraMOD has a NoClock.zip which you could edit to your liking. And it has no recent apps in it also, so you can pull that as well.
thanks man.
i was wondering also before i rip it.
is the quicksettings themed too?
and is the gps themed too?

i've modded synergy alot but i still need to find out how to make the quick settings transparent. i cant find it in any xml
once we find out how to do that,
THC (Ganja) 2.0 will be release.
only for synergy though
then bamba1260 will release his version for MG on supra
if only someone knew how to make synergy menus transparent.

Freaking autocorrect....
Have you tried using UOT? Edit it and put in all 3 files, then extract the APKs from the output and use them.
So you make your Theme with UOT.
Upload all the needed files (3 of them: SystemUI.apk, com.htc.resources.apk, framework-res.apk)
then you let it cook the theme.
Once you download the ZIP, Extract it
There you have the APKs you need for your Theme
gat damn gat damn.
if UOT wasn't such a full ass server, id do it right now.
are you busy at the moment bro; need help with sumchin

if you want to get original xperia icons
you may use the xperia arc theme from market...
and about editing the theme
first get root explorer
now with the help of root explorer open the theme apk (dont click on install)
now you will see some folders
different icons and backgrounds may be found in the "res" folder..
do not forget to press thanks if i helped
yes and the system and A-theme may be found in system/apps
you may edit them from there....

thank you
nice work
Is this just a theme for creed rom v2.5 or iCS themed rom (update of v2.5). If it is a theme i will use it I like ICS but it is themed ROM like cyanogen clone rom i won`t use it because the creed rom v2.5 is still developing.
When will we get to see this theme? Looks nice!
