Root [Boost Mobile] [THEME] n00b ROM UOT Themes - Share Yours

[MrBobo]

Please use this thread to post your UOT themes for n00b ROM, be sure to include a screenshot or two and what version of n00b is was made for as well as any extra theming that was done (just UOT is fine, they can be a simple or as complex themes as you like, for example just changing the circle battery mod or a full theme including icons etc.

I would also ask that people try to keep this thread a bunch of postings of just themes with minimal chit chat in between, just use the like button for ones you like to cut down on extra posts.

One final tip, please download the theme settings when you create the theme in UOT and include that file so others can easily update the theme later and make tweaks to it, this also allows people to apply your theme settings to other ROMS.

Overview
UOT Kitchen is an online theming site that will allow you to theme some of the main elements of the status bar and android interface. It makes modifications to the two main system apps, SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk. It's mostly compatible with our devices, but some manual work is required to theme the signal bars. I will put instructions together for that in tips/tricks later.

Getting Started

• Go to the UOT Kitchen Site
• Choose options for the theme on each tab that you want included
• Go to File Upload tab
  • Upload SystemUI.apk from n00b ROM (located under /system/app on the phone)
  • Upload framework-res.apk (located under /system/framework)
  • Leave everything else default on that tab except change to the Optimus in the first drop down
  • Download your settings (very important, this allows you to not have to make all the choices again later if you want to tweak your theme, also when n00b updates in the future you can just re-use that to update your theme for the new version of the ROM)
• Go to summary tab, everything should be in green indicating your theme is complete
• Submit work to kitchen
• Go to pickup page, download your zip when it's done cooking
• Make any manual updates (see tips and tricks in next post)
• Flash in recovery to apply
• Enjoy!
