Swagification
These are either MetaMorph themes or flashable .zips - the instructions will state which type of file you are downloading. For detailed instructions on how to flash a .zip, head over to the
installation page.
Swagification:
"The natural ability, or the art of having swagger." So let's get your EVO even more Swagged Out already!
Themes (click on the image to download)
Themes are designed for users of Swagged Out Stock, if you are using Another 4.53-based OTA ROM, you CAN flash these themes, but they could mess up your ROM. Remember to
Nandroid every time you flash.
[Screenshots are coming soon...]
Dock Colors
These are MetaMorph themes. Ever get bored of seeing the same dock on the bottom of your homescreen, let's make life a little more colorful!
Note: These will
only change the
color of your dock (don't let the pictures confuse you lol)!
To install: Go to MetaMorph > Unzip/extract new theme (if you've used the theme before, still select this option, but then hit Update) > hit Close > hit "Apply all!" > wait till it's done > (tricky part) hold power button > Nothing happens but a light vibrate > Hold power button again > nothing happens for a sec, then EVO will hot restart on its own > Enjoy colorful joy!

Remappable Icon Button
These are MetaMorph themes. All Swag = ON ROMs have the ability to "map" the personalize key (by default the painter's palette at the bottom right of the home screen). Go to the app drawer >
LaunchKey > then select an app of your choice. To add a bit more personalization, I have taken the liberty to throw together some customized icons of the personalize key.
REMEMBER: It is up to you to change where the personalize key takes you, this will only change the "personalize button" icon.

Other Dev's Docks
These are MetaMorph themes. Whether it's ldc2335's Smooth N Sexy docks or tommytomatoes docks, there are some cool docks out there. I have taken the liberty of grabbing the necessary files out of their docks and moving them into MetaMorph themes for easy Swagged Out customization.
ldc2335 - I
recommend that you install the special "reset" dock to switch to SOS docks
All thanks go to ldc2335 for making these sweet docks in the first place, be sure to check out his
Smooth N Sexy ROM.

Rosie Ports
These are MetaMorph themes. There are some bad ass Rosie docks out there. To bring some of those to SOS, I have taken the liberty to port them. Note: The Remappable Icon Button (below) mods will not work with the Rosie Ports. If you would like a Rosie Port with a different icon, request it, I will make it

To return to the HTC Lock Screen you must flash the .zip below. Note: this is only for Swag = ON. If you are using Swag = OFF, reflash the Unswagification Pack, this will UNDO any other modifications (themes, kernels, etc.) you have made to SOS, though.

Instructions on how to send back select apps (i.e. not every app included in a pack) are found on the
Installation page.
Essential App Pack
Normally, ROMs come with a lot of apps that many users will use often, but I know that everybody won't use them. Due to that reason, I try to include as few apps as possible (and make them fully uninstallable). For those that do like to have some extra apps added in easily, this is the right place for you! The instructions are the same as the other App Packs, except the apps are located in /data/app.
[Will be updated in the coming weeks]
CIQ Adder
If you are a fan of Sprint apps, you may need this. CIQ is explained here, and the reason it is not included in this ROM can be found here. However, according to this, you shouldn't worry too much about CIQ. If you are having problems running Sprint apps, try flashing this.

Swag = OFF:

To re-strip CIQ, you simply need to reflash the ROM (Swag = ON) or Unswagification Pack (Swag = OFF), this will UNDO any other modifications (themes, kernels, etc.) you have made to SOS, though.
Other Add-Ons
These are some other files I use that I had no part in making (like kernels and fonts), but they are flippin' awesome!
Latest Radio Updat(2.15.00.08.0
Recently a new radio update was release for the HTC EVO 4G, be sure to update to it to receive the latest updates for your EVO!
Flashable .zip
When flashing this file, recovery will tell you to reboot. Do this by going back to recovery's main screen and selection Reboot (at the top). Then a weird updating phone thingy will pop up. Then it will go back to recovery and you can reboot again and you'll be good to go.
Warning: Do not pull your battery or perform a radio update on a low battery. Let the installation complete. Failure to do so could result in you
bricking your EVO (you have been warned).
Also: It is a good idea to back up your WiMAX keys. This
G&E article should help you out.
Splash Screen
This is NOT a flashable .zip, follow the instructions below. White-on-black Splash Screen (looks great with the boot animation for SOS):
PC36IMG.zip
Place this file on the root of your SD card, use the 4-in-1 reboot mod to reboot into the bootloader, select BOOTLOADER, press volume up to confirm install, then volume up again to reboot, enjoy! Make sure the file is name "PC36IMG.zip" and not something like "PC36IMG (1).zip" or it won't flash. Thanks to JSZESZE for the splash screen and thepiecesfit for making this PC36IMG.zip
Amon RA Recovery
Using ROM Manager, an app included with SOS, scroll all the way down to the bottom of the in-app options. The first-to-last option (under "More Recoveries") will read "Flash Alternative Recovery." Use this to flash Amon RA Recovery.
swagstr personally recommends manually downloading SOS and using Amon's recovery over ClockworkMod. However, ROM Manager is so damn easy! So the choice is really up to you
