OrangeRiver for VorteX

UPDATE-11-12-11
Updated theme For VorteX RC1
Added orange honeycomb style battery icons

After flashing the theme it might loop 2 or 3 times, give it some time and if it loops for more than a minute pull battery and boot up again. Should be good if you do.

If you lose notification bar reboot and you should be good to go.

This is a theme I originally did for DarkslideX and then ported it to a few roms I was on with some edits for each one. For credits and my sources you can check my threads .

Thanks and credit for the rom goes to deVorteX, he has done great work with his rom and provides awesome support.
And thanks to all that I may have forgot or has contributed in anyway.

Mr Wulf,

I just wanted to let you know of a "small" issue with the latest OR (I just love this theme, it ROCKS) theme for Vortex 2.5, I flashed it after the upgrade and now my lock screen icons show up correctly even with a LCD density of 200 however when I tried to use the "reboot" option from the power button menu, it sends the DX into an endless "powering down" pop-up window and the DX will no longer respond to input buttons. The only way I can get out of it is to do a battery pull. I was trying to see if I could reboot into CW from this menu but since this happens every time, I just use Dx Bootstrapper. I've reinstalled both Vortex and the OR theme from different download files but I get the same results each time. I haven't tried resetting the LCD density to stock since this is not a real issue for me but I may give that a shot even though I really don't see how that would cause this issue.

Thanks again for the great themes.

Hmm, I haven't updated theme since 2.3, but its still compatible with 2.5. I'm not sure what the updates change, but sounds like they affect the prop edits you did. I haven't heard of any issues like this on the other 2 forums I posted themes in. I'm no expert but if you change the density wouldn't that potentially affect touch sensitivity? Just a random guess on my part and have no experience with prop edits, sorry, lol. Wish i could be more help.

I havent seen any issues with touch sensitivity, I just think it looks better with the lower density since it like running higher resolution on a monitor. BTW, I flashed OR on 2.5 and everything worked great even at the "custom" LCD density and everything worked (including both lockscreen buttons) except the CW reboot and from looking at the change log, that may have been an issue with Vortex. I just installed Vortex 2.8 and flashed OR and it looks like everything works with the except it's now back to the mute button on the lockscreen disappearing at the "custom" LCD density. Again, no biggie since this is such a great looking theme. Any plans to update it to Vortex 2.8?

Updated theme for vortex 2.8

I'm just going to have to add you and deVortex to my christmas card mailing list! Thanks again and I would like to echo the statement that this really is best theme I've seen yet for the DX on any ROM or OS!

EDIT: I've tried to install this a few times now and each time it wipes out my settings and GMail apps and causes some force closes in random places. I've tried downloading the file several times and the MD5 match, I've also wiped cache prior to installing the theme but I'm getting the same issues each time. Any ideas Wulf?

EDIT2: I downloaded the Blue River theme and installed it and it works without issue even at a modified LCD density. Another thing that I noticed is that the bootanimation in Orange River is not the nice circular animated one with sound, it's sort of a generic "android" animation without sound. Just passing it along incase the information is useful.

Cheers

That generic animation isn't anything I put in, lol. It must be some sort of system default but say for sure. It sounds like a bad install. Reflash vortex 2.8 cache wipe only, NO DATA WIPES, boot up and go back to recovery and flash theme.

Well I tried that and the gods' of fate decided to kick my buttocks. When I flashed 2.8 and did the cache wipe, after the reboot I kept getting a lot of FC's in different applications (one was acually the touchscreen of all things) so I decided to do a full wipe. I reinstalled 2.8, rebooted, activated and then went to CWR and installed OR. After rebooting, it looked ok at first so I decided (dumba55 me) to boot into CW and do an advanced restore of data only so I would have all the apps and settings back, STUPID! I had more problems that I could count and finally ended up doing another Factory Reset/Data Wipe and reinstalling Vortex 2.8 and going through the whole reactivation, reload apps from google, ect, ect. But HEY, I got OR back!

Too bad we can't get a 1% notched circle battery icon that matches the Orange River theme.
