I personally have not tested it. I just thought some people might be interested and never find it - which would be a waste of all the hard work the OP put in.
Will this work OVER the fission ROM? This looks awesome and I would love to try it out.

Can you get me some more details? What rom did you come from? were you running any other themes prior to installing mine? What exactly happened. Did it lock up, not load etc? Any info you can give is appreciated. I'd like to make it compatible with fission for sure.

I'm on Fission 2.0.94 For DX very latest.
I like the hints of blue on the task bar.
Some of the setting links FC because they are NOT in the present Rom such as data mgr,accounts,and backout assistant. maybe others but I realize its a work in progress.
Oh some of the function button are to gray in various app's to see selections .
That all that I could see in after a little few minutes of playing.
Thanks for adding to the Fission Themes .I'm sure this will a a winner whens it completed.
What's "oh hal!"mean??? For some ocd reason it has been bothering the heck out of me.
Sh******t, if I knew it was gonna be this kind of party I woulda stuck my d*** in the mashed potatoes.

when I go to install this from recovery it says "can't open Fission_IceHole0.80.zip (bad) Installation Aborted.*
PS: I'm on Fission 2.0.1 w/reboot update.
OK take back my previous post. Got it to update, but didn't get signal the first time it booted up. Rebooted and its fine now. Noticed a couple of issues:
1. Dial buttons are still yellow when pressed.
2. Text messages in status bar are still black (doesn't look good on a black status bar)
3. Lock screen is back to the 2.2 lock screen. (some like some dislike, not a huge deal)
4. The volume/music bars are still yellow (would be nice if they were blue like the theme)
5. The stock music app is not themed like your original.
6. Weather/news widget would look nice themed too!
7. The stock DX keyboard still shows red when pressed. Would be nice to have this blue also.

6/26 FIXED
FC issues resolved, and tested for stability. Short update note in this post.
6/21-For those who have fc's, I've added a second link for each of the new TransBlue Markets. The only change is that I use the original, unedited Manifest. The downside is that the comments page will have a white background, but ALL of the other updates are still in play. 100% stable, guaranteed These versions have "og_manifest" at the end of their file names.
6/18
I've recently made a revision to TransBlue (the most popular by far) At first the changes may seem minor, and visually they may not be the first things that pop out, but underneath there's actually quite a few changes. What I've strived for this time was to reduce the usage of public resources a little. I had already pretty much themed all that I could otherwise, so I started to edit the layout xml and (and a couple places in smali) to instead call new local resources I've added. Kind of a long process as it's a bit of trial and error for me (never done anything like it before really), but I think I've come to a decent point where I can release it.
This grew out of another project I'm working on for SGS2.
Screenshots courtesy of esk02k. Thank you! Also, thanks to fernando sor, who's pm exchanges instigated much of the research that led me to this revision.

Found the problem some had with the boxes in the app listings. The parent of one of the styles I use has a different id in froyo vs gingerbread. All is well now. I will endeavor to add trans-green and the regular blue as I can.
TransBlue has been updated just a bit to include some of the changes I introduced in TransRed so now both of these included my latest theming efforts

Hello fellow XDA'ers,
I have themed the new market a little, the primary goal was to change from the green to a blueish theme. I've actually had this for a little while, but only posted it in my super circle thread. It was suggested that I start a new thread for it, as there may be some interested, that don't frequent the battery thread. Just about every image has been replaced.
Here's a shot:
The zip file below will place Vending.apk into your /system/app directory. Enjoy!

Might want to try wiping your caches. Most of the big green header is not a drawable, but is constructed in smali believe it or not.

Ugg..hate wiping caches but will try since mine is also green, but some stuff is blue. Weird.... Was about to install MicroMods V11 Gingerbread since I was getting bored again
Was happy to dig up a working GB Keyboard for him to use on the Desire-HD ROM. Seems all the prior GB Keyboards floating around caused FC's or some other weirdness. Found a post from a russian developer that said it would work on Sense Roms....and it did
PS...it's so nice not having memory issues anymore, sonce having my N1 replaced.
EDIT: No Go. I am using MicroMods Desire-HD ROM. New market works fine. I just wiped cache, and Dalvik-Cache, reflashed your file and the market is still green. Any thoughts?
can you make this into a metamorph so i can just apply it like that
Also anyone find those wallpaper sub categories i have yet to see them
Looks awesome. I wiped Cache then flashed and it worked first shot.
My only issue is the text is slightly cut off.
Like blue a lot...much better than the stock!
Is it safe to install ?

Hey Pendo,
Nice work on this Blue Market, not sure why mine looks cut off on the bottom part of the top display?
Here is a screen shot so you can see what I mean, I am only reporting this because it is different than the shot in the first post.
Thanks for you work, I would turn everything GB Green into blue if I could
Edit: Actually now that I look at it closer it seems that the spacing is off in the bottom part with all the apps being to far apart also???
Edit 2: Looks good in landscape view, is that new, Landscape for market?

First off, thanks, as always for the compliments. Feel like I've kinda been in a rut lately on a few projects so it's definitely nice to hear
As far as why some are not getting build to take, I suspect that you may have a second market installation. I have no idea what causes this but I did notice that I had a vending and a vending-1 install on one of the roms that I've had on my device over the holidays. (been trying to show off all the versatility to the iphone family members ). I just checked the manifest, and it is 2.2.6 so that could be an issue. This market originally came from one of the first few that were floating around a little while back. I'll try to get 2.2.7 up here right quick. I've been running this for quite some time now, but I'm not getting the update for some reason. For those of you who aren't seeing the change, if you have root explorer go see what you have in /system/app, also *possibly* in /data/app. Of course you can run ls in shell as well.
I wish I could remember all that I've done to this, code wise, but that was almost 3 weeks ago and I've seen too much else since then. Hopefully I can jog my memory when I get a chance with 2.2.7.

Man, once again...I'm not sure what's causing this. This shouldn't make a darn bit of difference, but you could try pushing it to the phone either in recovery, or by stopping core with adb shell stop, adb push Vending.apk, then adb shell start.
Also ran into something different with the nexus s that I've worked on. When you flash in recovery, you have to go and mount the system partition first. Now I've always had to do this if I was pushing into it, but flashing a zip, no. Still shouldn't make a difference with this zip though as I've included a mount command in the script.
Oh, and you reminded me....I also have a lightly themed blue gingerbread keyboard. Fairly subtle, but I prefer it to stock. I posted it in enom's thread a while ago as well. I'll add it to the op as well.

No, this cannot be applied via metamorph unfortunately. Many of the changes are located in what becomes resources.arsc when it's compiled.

Hey Pendo
this is absolutely, what I'm searching for.
can I use it with my own MIUI ROM?
Everything there is blue and I've searched for a blue Market.
Is it possible to tell me, which things are changed, that are not in drawable-hdpi?
It sounds a bit weird, but I wanna make this changes in "my" market...
OK, everybody..
I found a 2.2.7 version of the market. I think I managed to get everything over that matters. I had to run a diff to make sure I didn't miss any theme work that I did...one thing I noticed was there were some changes in the layout xml affecting padding and a couple other changes. Hopefully that fixes the layout issues.
So far this was tested on cm 6.1.1 however, I mounted the system and pushed. I did not remove anything prior, but I did wipe cache and dalvik to be safe. So I'm not sure if you'll need to or not. Also, I had reinstalled an older version of the market and booted into the phone, navigated around in the market before I did this to try to create a typical scenario.
So far all is well.

Unknown if you can use with miui. Most everything is blue, or meant to go well with the blue theme, as there are teal highlights you can see in the header.
The changes are all in hex and in colors.xml. However you need to find out where the colors are being used and that's in com/android/vending/velvet. You'll find the various id's in ArcPaintingUtils.smali, ArcView.smali, SlimArcView.smali, and SlimArcViewWithTabs.smali. (I think that's most of them) Then you can reference the id's back to public.xml to find out what it's actual name is.
Like I said, it's a bit different than what you'd run into for theming (or at least it is to me )
Okay guys, at the suggestion/request of Konikub, who was told this couldn't be done, I, "Team LoneWolf" , decided to crack open the stock HTC Messaging application (Mms.apk), in order to investigate the possibility of inverting / applying a "dark theme" to the application.
It seems this has not been done before, and upon initial investigation, I can see why. Many of the HTC Sense applications share common resources (themes, styles, icons, etc), stored in com.htc.resources.apk. So, if you attempt to modify something used by Mms.apk, but stored in com.htc.resources.apk, you are going to unwittingly modify the appearance of other applications, and if other corresponding elements are not adjusted in those applications as well, you are going to have problems.
So, things that are "challenging" are the things I like to try and tackle, and inverting this application was a tough cookie, requiring extensive edits, in some cases to "undo" references to items stored / defined in com.htc.resources.apk, and rather, make them stand alone directly within Mms.apk. This required major edits to XML, Styles, Colors, local .pngs, and Smali/Java code. You wouldn't think simply themeing an app would require all of this, but Mms.apk did.
Essentially, what this mod has done, for the most part, is flip most text that was black, and made it white, and most backgrounds that were white, and made them black (inverted), giving you a bit more visual interest, as opposed to the stock "white" look.
For those running a dark theme on their phone, who prefer to use the stock messaging app (I use Handcent, lol), this should fit the bill nicely. Again, thanks to Koni-man for the "nudge" / "coaxing" to take a look at this.

Flash the attached (HtcMms.zip) via recovery. Also, let me know if I missed anything. It is certainly possible, as there are so many menu options / tasks that can be done, that I may have overlooked.
EDIT: MetaMorphs attachments added (morph_*.zip), to modify the default 'tap to compose' area from gray (shown in screen caps above), to black (screen capture), and another to return the application icon in the app drawer to stock color. DO NOT ATTEMPT to flash these. They must be applied using MetaMorph, AFTER you FIRST flash from recovery the original mod (HtcMms.zip). After applying using MetaMorph, you will need to, at a minimum, issue a Hot Restart, for the application to re-appear in the app drawer. It will disappear after applying the MetaMorph, and re-appear after a restart.

Indeed, he's a good guy. Honestly, if someone else came to me for help on this one, especially since I use Handcent (currently, I may switch now too!), I probably would have ignored the request. But, I always like to help Koni out when possible .
Very sweet I am downloading now
Might you be able to customie other apps like this? Like making the stock HTC music app and People app all black. That would make Sense even more epic.

1. It changes the message icon at the top notification bar default.
2. Make the "Tap to Compose" section black with white like the rest.
3. Make the main message icon default color not blacked out.
Other than that very good work!!

I modded this from a stock Mms.apk. I'm not familiar with the details of the mods Calkulin did, but I assumed they were to the framework, as opposed directly to the .apk. I'll have to look, as, honestly, until now, I've never really used the HTC Messaging app.
BTW, I'll probably knock out a few MetaMorphs shortly, with some "other" preferences, such as the mentioned black "tap to compose" area. I did it that way initially, but didn't like it. It looked like too much black to me and made it hard to differentiate the compose versus non-compose areas. I'll probably also do a MM to restore the stock application icon. I wanted to darken it to denote it is a changed / darkened version of the app.
Thanks been wanting this for a while. I knew you was going to give us something cool you was too quiet.
You are the man.

Okay, FYI, I've attached 2 MetaMorphs to the end of the OP based on preference.
The first MetaMorph will change the "tap to compose" area from the modded gray in the OP, to black for those who prefer it, as shown below:
The second MetaMorph simply returns the application icon in the app drawer to stock white.
Note, after applying using MetaMorph, you will need to, at a minimum, issue a Hot Restart, for the application to re-appear in the app drawer. It will disappear after applying the MetaMorph, and re-appear after a restart.
Nice job Js really nice looking man, you have done some really good mods for the Evo communuty and I use them thanks again

After just getting around to installing your rotary unlock mod, I am loving this!
Only problem is I can't install it. I go into the recovery menu, choose install from zip and then confirm, I get an error.
Installing update...
Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.
Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.
It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery.
Please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and updater-binary) to create working update .zip packages.
Any ideas why I get this error? I haven't changed anything since I installed the rotary lockscreen. Maybe switching to Amon recovery?

Accurate Battery Mods for EB105 Froyo
These are a few basic Battery Mods made from EagleBlood V105 Froyo. Although they were specifically created for that build, some testers have reported it working on other 2.2.2-based builds (aka anything using the LG stock Froyo as a base). This mod replaces the entire framework-res.apk file, so you will loss any previous theming.

Try flashing via CWM recovery. Worked like a charm for me!
Converted thread to serve as home to both EB battery mods and Xperia theme.

Oh btw, if I flashed the theme already, now I wanna use the Battery Mod, will the Battery Icon change?

Ya, but I will be putting together a few more battery mods when I have time. Just went a lil crazy today haha.
As another method, you can TRY feeding the framework-res.apk back into the Online Theme Kitchen, but it doesnt always work right. Sometimes it errors out, or causes a bootloop, but its a great resource for images.
PS WIll be adding more images soon, especially for the True Xperia

That bug is DEF fixed if you used the above links, I flashed that sucker a few times to make sure. I also bundled in all the themed apps to make it easier, so we are def talking about the same file. Try flashing it, clearing your dalvik-cache, fix permissions, and reboot. Let me know.
Attached the "offending" file
Thought I'd share a screenshot of the blue circular battery mod and how cool it looks with it!!! Also I found that the sliders color have changed as well as the position of the sliders which I am digging cause it suits the ROM!

Thats REALLY strange as the image has DEF been replaced with the proper one, and I combed through the framework pretty well to make sure I didnt miss anything else. Also, I flashed both my version and the Xperia version a few different times to make sure.
EDIT:
Okay, just tried Root Explorer, and I think it may be a app issue, cause that image doesnt exists in the framework. If an app uses its own png file instead of the one in the framework, then the dev needs to update the app with a GB style menu. Just curious, what other apps do that?
See pic below, this is from the Browser although MOST other apps should have a similar menu.

That power widget is from my personal "phishmonged" theme, make sure you arent flashing the True Xperia theme. Also, just to confirm, you are running EagleBlood V105 Froyo, correct?
I attached the Settings.apk file, which has all the mods for the settings menu and Power Widget, as another method. You can try pushing it to /system/app or copy\paste it to /system/app using Root Explorer or SUFBS.
I thought maybe I saw this problem before I installed your theme but my memory was fuzzy. After your statement, I'm sure now I saw this with the original ROM. I agree it is a ROM problem. I see it with Root Explorer and my exchange email app Touchdown.

No, I dont think its a rom problem, I think its an app problem. Android has a LARGE set of images that apps can use (which is why the "Settings" button looks the same for most apps, as it simply borrows Androids icon for settings). From Froyo to GB, The menu changed from white to black and the text inverted colors as well. If an app developor decides to use his own image (included in the app apk) instead of using Android's images (from the framework, which the theme modifies), then that would explain why certain apps have the white menu bug while others dont.

I see, so one could potentially modify the app to solve the problem.

I just checked to be sure, and yes I'm running EB1.0.5 Froyo. Thanks for the settings.apk, I'll push it now.
Glasstopia
This is by no means a completed theme. I've just spent many many hours getting everything translucent and correcting everything I could find that didn't look right with the new transparency (Not to mention getting Contacts.apk to compile at all). So for now, I'm calling this an initial release.
F.A.Q.Q. You included the blue flames?!?! Oh No!!!!
A. Ok....seriously this time. The flames (and most status bar changes coming in the future) are housed in the system/app/SystemUI.apk. If you delete it from Glasstopia before you flash, or push the one over from Glasstopia_Revert or HFS after you flash, then no more flames
I originally created this theme for the Vibrant a long time ago, and decided to bring it over to my new phone. What I've been able to do so far:
General Cyan/Blue Theme
Many Custom Icons and Images
New Wallpaper (See Bottom)
"Accurate" Battery Icons
Translucent Notification Dropdown
Animated Notification Icons
Translucent Dialer
Translucent Contacts
Translucent Mms
Translucent Settings
Translucent Music Player
Translucent GMail

For a wide variety of transparent widgets visit this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8398577#post8398577
I don't see any point in reproducting perfectly good work, so I won't be making any widgets that are on that list. However, if there's any widget that you don't find there, isn't up to date, or simply would like it looking a bit different let me know and I'll take a look at it
Glasstopia v1.3:
Added animated notification icons
Themed system menu icons
Themed power menu icons
Themed popup menus
Added "missing" icons
Glasstopia v1.2:
Framework-res.apk and systemui.apk now are themed by Theme Engine
Gmail.apk updated to latest version
Animated status bar removed for the time being (hopefully will find a good way to add it back)
Glasstopia v1.1:
Reduced transparency of framework to better accommodate visibility of text in certain apps.
Fixed text color oversight in Mms compose message.
Added some new icons
Re-skinned Lockscreen
Fixed lack of transparency when creating new contacts.
New status bar images
General blue/cyan coloring
New Mms.apk images
New default_wallpaper.png (doesn't seem to apply)
Probably more....
Glasstopia v1.0 (Initial Release):
Translucent and Animated Statusbar
Translucent Dialer
Translucent Contacts
Translucent Mms
Translucent Settings
Translucent Music Player
Translucent GMail

Guess Dropbox isn't going to work for me. My old host is out of business unfortunately. Let's see how mediafire does. Sorry about that. Links are updated.
Also, shouldn't NEED to wipe anything. However, if you like to be extra careful, it never hurts to wipe the cache first.
Edit: haven't decided on a theme color yet. I kinda like blue themes, but there's been suggestions for red in keeping with the general theme of the rom. Thoughts?

Glad you like it. Ya, I'll definitely be changing out lots of icons and images in the future. This is just the result of the "hard work" of making everything transparent (people don't get how much actual coding can be involved for theme projects like this sometimes ). I just kind of exhausted myself with this first part and took a little breather since the next part is pretty tedious.
I'll hopefully get started on the images tomorrow if i can decide between blue and red (or maybe both somehow)

I would suggest waiting until I post an update after each of Hell's updates. It's not so much that it wouldn't work....it very likely would. However, any changes Hell makes to the apks I'm replacing would be lost.
However, my current plan/goal is to basically postpone my releases until Hell makes a new release. At that point I'll find a quick "stopping point", package it up, and post it here. Hopefully I'll be able to get this done either same day or next day depending on my work schedule (I work 12hr shifts, so some days are definitely better than others ).
Flames
I'm relatively new on XDA, so please don't flame me; however I am not a huge fan of the flames. Now I know that this is not a matter to be argued about, as everyone has different tastes. I was just wondering if there is any real way to use this theme without them. Just to be sure, I did the factory wipe in CWM as described in the OP; however, as I expected, this wiped my phone and left the flames. I realize that this description on removing the flames may be sarcasm, and that is perfectly acceptable. It is your theme and I have no right to complain about it or ask you to change it to my liking. I would only ask that you point out whatever I am missing if there is a way to remove the flames. If not, I won't complain.
Thanks

Indeed it was sarcasm. If you delete the SystemUI.apk out of the /system/app folder in the Glasstopia_v1.0.zip when flashing to HFS it won't add the flames. To remove them if you already have them, move the SystemUI.apk from Glasstopia_Revert.zip or HFS.zip to Glasstopia_v1.0.zip then flash.
Edit: Peterman720 is not to be harmed. I knew this question was coming from someone sometime, and he phrased it politely
