there are no round icons, but if you like...
I was able to get the round white icon working on my droid...thanks Droidboy22 and everyone else...
Nice! How'd you do it?
I'm a noob to all this rooting stuff so I have a lot to catch up on.
When you were giving me instructions yesterday, I tried to download the zip file using Xscope, then moving the zip file from Xscope downloads folder to /System/Android theme folder. Then using MM to extract and load the theme, but i was getting the error stating that MM was unable to locate the file.
When I got home last night, I downloaded the zip file into my PC, extracted the file, made sure there was a .xml file in the folder and rezipped the file. Mounted my phone and transferred the file into Android theme folder and booted up MM. MM gave me another error after extracting. Rebooted MM and picked existing theme and sure enough the system.apk? file was there, choose that and applied theme, waited and crossed my fingers, and the phone rebooted and FINALLY the white round icon.
im having an issue with metamorph or the file idk which one it is because metamorph let me change my font but when i try to apply the round theme it just sits there forever trying to apply it and then never does it dont even reboot the phone or anything just says applying framework-res.apk theme any help?
requesting xml for round battery icons please. if thats too much i prefer the purple round battery icon xml. the new metamorph wont even give me a choice to choose the icon and reboot. all the round battery icon zip files don't have the xml file. and apparently metamorph needs the xml file
Another option for a "round" battery status, my Droid Pulsar Battery Status.
Here are some screen shots and a file layout. The "Blue Dots" only come on when on the charger. Pretty cool to watch it pulse outwards as it charges :-)
There are 2 versions, one with transparent background and one with Black Background.
Give it a try (zip files attached below), BTW, it looks better in person.
Normal Version DroidPulsar.zip (link below)
Black Background version DroidPulsarB.zip (link below)

if u dont mind switchblade cause i love this icon but when it recharges is it possible to get it to light up the same colors as it charges like at 0-10 red, 20 orange, 40 yellow etc... that would be really cool doesnt have to say the #'s just the colors as it charges?
im talking about the multi color one u posted on page 14 if i remember correctly
