KKD_MODv4G(FULL)
!!!UPDATE3!!!
(6/1)This is Darchs newest updated rom, plus the stuff i like to roll with. Darch battery fix and vvm are already built in. This is the GOOGLE version, meaning gbits are built in as well. For screens look below. Ive changed nothing visually so no new screenies.
DOWNLOAD KKD_MODv4G(FULL)
(old)Ive been exp battery issues after a days use, and im trying to narrow down the problem...Im working on an update with the new rom and fixes because i would like to run this but i need my battery life too like my DamageRs.....I modded them to have awesome battery, but the same mods on an aosp dont have the same effect, same with my opengl hacks....IM WORKING ON THE UPDATE, bear with me, im only making it better
After taking all of the comments from last nite into consideration, and staying up all nite to finish, I updated the mod with a new launcher, i modded the helix, made two more fonts for the two ver. KKD_MODv3.2G and KKD_MODv3.2lite I fixed EVERYTHING i had comments on....Also i added 5 fonts in update.zip form for anyone in case they dont like what they see....
Ive fallen into a bad habit where i CANNOT flash a rom w/o modding it to my liking......So this is a beta v. MOD of darch's latest and greatest...I HAD to try it. Made me jump Damage Ship for a sec. Still testing, but afict everything is working nicely. Im touching it up now and ill put up the beta in a bit....This is not a beta to me, but ill wait till i get a little feedback to polish it.
This rom has EVERYTHING In DarchDroid + some of XTRA goodies we can ALL use. This is the rom i made for myself, i NEVER used the original.....Im happy to share with you my modded ver. of DarkDroid. I call it DarchKingKang(had to do it).....DDK.v2 for short....
DARCH HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH WHAT I DID TO HIS ROM, SORRY IF I OFFENDED YOU IN ANY WAY, JUST TRYING TO GIVE PPL ONE MORE CHOICE
INSIDE
AKA Reasons to check this particular mod out
+Swype/Android KB Hybrid
+I modded my 1st launcher...other than rosie xD
+Andvanced launcher
+ADW as an update zip case you prefer it...
+DDMS was crying about openGL so i added some of my fixes
+Overclock Widget
+Astro
+Opera
+Glass jogbars and launcher(man i love fireworks)
+MT3G Music
+modded music apk i took from/aka kanged a cyan rom
+BatteryMonitorWidget
+SysTrayMonitor
+wi-fi tether
+UltimateFaves
+Quick Boot
+VVM
+A bunch more stuff i forgot.......
Darch kept this rom so small that even with my utilities/added apks its still less than 70mb!!!!We have darch to thank for the original rom that i based this mod on..... I dont want to offend darch or anyone that loves his work, this is merely what i did before i flashed this rom onto my OWN hero.....I wanted to keep this lite since it is a minimalist rom and i only added utilities that everyone here would utilize....
I got some screenies too.....
PLEASE DONT FREAK OUT YOU DONT GET THE FONT IN THE SCREENIES
Have no fear, that font was just for my v1 of this rom..... im looking for something sweet for everyone else,and as always stock font will be available for dl right below the rom.....
BETA SCREENS
KKD_MODv3.2
Thank Darch for his stellar work PLEASE
Thank Shoebox for Swype/Android Beta KB i FOUND & ported
Thank ME for CHOPPING/CUTTING/GUTTING/COPYING/PASTING/KANGING......well, you get the idea...
AND LASTLY,NO WHINING,FLAMING,OR NEGATIVITY PLEASE, THIS IS A HOBBY AND SOMTHING I DO FOR FUN, IF YOU CAN DO BETTER, IDC,GO DO IT

Looks really nice but im not fond of the fonts, they look all cut off.
I agree you do good work, but your fonts completely turn me away from trying every one of your ROMS...
Looks cool, I'll give it a flash when you put it up.
TBH though, I hate the stock white notification bar from AOSP builds.. looks especially goofy to me with roms like this where everything else is themed darker

You could take the rom or theme and put your own fonts in before flashing.
Everyone put on your kiddie gloves for markus. Dude, I don't really think he was bashing. He basically said he doesn't like the fonts he chooses. Big deal. He said he likes his work. You don't like the fonts, right? Stop bashing.

I wasn't bashing anybody and i agree the fonts are pretty bad but the theme otherwise looks good. I just said you guys could always install your own fonts.
does this still have the battery drain issue?
Wow those fonts would give me a headache but outside of that great job, always glad to see more roms around the forums! I'll give it a shot.
nice work. Will flash when you get link up. In the mean time I will be looking for a better font.

Sorry about that but its your loss.... If youd looked into what i do youd see i include the stock font with any of my mods because few ppl like mine, and i explained the pictured font in the op...You should really try one and flash one of my update zip stock fonts.....You shouldnt let font stop you from flashing ANY rom, you might miss something really sweet. I have ppl that hate red but ran my red theme till i up'd somthing new because they appreciate what i do.....Sorry youd let a update.zip for stock font stop you from trying something new...Not really looking for fans anyway, just maybe a few ppl that enjoy my mods as much as i do, and i achieved that goal a LONG time ago, without about 98% of cdma hero not looking twice @ what i do, so im used to it and idrc.

Sorry you dont like my app drawer launcher, i learned how to make glass effects so i made that reflection at the top to accent the taskbar, and made the app drawer launcher indicators green to match the system highlites, and lastly i made the button presses on the swype/android hybrid kb orange to match the search bar highlight...... LOOK CLOSER...It matches and IT IS themed...if i couldnt match colors and shapes thered be no point in themeing..Also, i looked for soooo long to find statusbar_backround, and its not the same part in this rom so i couldnt change it. I really wanted to make it just like the launcher drawer originally... All the ideas are very good, but its much. harder to make them materialze.....its easy to say this stuff after you see it.... but i took the time to MAKE it....Thanks for being honest....im sure you can appreciate my honesty as well...

7 comments; 1 compliment, 1 person keeping the peace, and 5 complaints......I remember a while ago i talked to damage and he was *****ing us out for ragging on DC and what needed to be [email protected] first i thought he was a ****, but ive slowly come to understand him over time.....he was never a ****, i just had NO IDEA where he was coming from.....Itd be a little more helpful if instead of telling me what you dont like, how bout telling what you do like and put it up for me to use so i can make my stuff more accepted by you......Thats EXACTLY what id do, so i dont think its very far fetched to expect it here on a development site...negativity and complaints are soo easy to put out there, but compliments, constructive criticism, and offering a logical solution dont seem to be the common choice around here.....Sorry if anyone finds this a bit harsh, do not take offense. I have been working on this since yesturday to get it up here so ppl can have a modded aosp if they wish, and it seems that all my work is wasted because of something as simple to change as font, is not well liked......I would think anyone following the developement sub forum would know how to change font, or flash an update.zip containing it.....Whats that old saying?? YOU CANT PLEASE EVERYONE??? yep, im thinking that one all the time
Loving the new rom. Thanks for all the time and effort you and all the other devs put into building these. I am ready to DL as soon as the link is up. I wish I had the talent, skill and time to build one myself.
I enjoy your work.. I'm looking forward to trying it out as soon at the DL link drops..

No I understand, I've tried doing themes but with two kids it's hard to find the time anymore. I've just personally never liked the look of just the white notification bar, I prefer the Sense black style our Hero's came out of the box until we flashed them to hell and back. The launcher looks good and I get where your coming from to match the launcher to the taskbar. Overall it looks good, and unlike a lot of the other ones I like that font alot and want to try it. If anything it looks like it could stand to be smaller, but again, that's more of an Android issue considering the system resizes the base fonts for the different parts of it and the stylized fonts must be larger to give it the style.
Don't mind the complaints, there's always a place for any sort of theme or rom you can come up with. If anything maybe do a screencap with the stock font at the top of the post for comparison (and since you do provide it as well), then do the rest with the font you want to do. I think that would help with the font complaints.
Thanks for the hard work..now we just need a link
nice work might give it a go

Hit me up with this is diffrent and I like it... With fonts and the hole works.. You need to school me on this....
ok guys here is a theme i have been currently working on and just wanted to know if you guys had any interest in it. it doesn't have a proper name but its code name is Zen. feel free to suggest names and i will choose whichever i think suits it best. The theme is in a alpha stage at the moment as there are still lots of areas i plan on themeing. im also not 100% sure on the dock yet and currently testing ideas for a new one. i hope at least some of you guys are interested .
Edit: A beta of this theme has now been released. It is still a work in progress so expect there to be a few bugs. Get the download from here: http://themes.piratemedia.tv/2010-07-20-zen-theme-for-cm6-rc1-beta/
It's looking nice is saw it in the screenshot section.
you also gonna change the looks of some widgets?
It's looking good so far, why the line across the wallpaper with darker section underneath?

no reason its just the style of the wallpaper im using which was created by daaxix from twitter. i asked someone to provide me with a simple wallpaper i could use with my theme and he responded with this.
It's fine, I just thought it would look cleaner and more natural if it wasn't there
it looks really good, but whats with the giant pokeball? You have to be rooted to install these right?
I like the status bar very much.

@everyone updated the OP with another screen
It`s beautiful... I like the status bar very much. It`s posible to make this theme
for Froyo users?.
P.S. Very good work, It`s amazing!. Thanks for share.
P.S.2. What widget are you using for the time and weather?, It`s Beautiful Widgets?. Thanks in advance. (The "Zen" name is a good name, so keep it).
Any chance we can get the status bar in an update.zip or metamorph theme compatible with CM builds? Love the status bar man....great work.
Great work

This is the best theme I have seen since gChrome!
I converted this wallpaper from a Gnome (Ubuntu) wallpaper because I liked it. I set the line up so that the bottom row of icons on the phone lie in the dark region. This allows for a dark and light region, I use the upper light region for a google calendar widget, which makes the text easy to read.

Dude, that is an awesome look! You should definitely keep working on it and release it as soon as humanly possible. Great stuff!
I also like the statusbar... looks awesome the way you designed it.

no body interested for doing it on tab?
is tab HDPI or MDPI?
im using the MDPI ones but i still have gap between picture
i already use 5 row icon for launcher pro, but still 6 row actually to get the picture aligned quite right
i also set the lcd density back to 240 otherwise the picture is much smaller >.<
and i'm a total noob using the photoshop
who knows there's some tab owner here interested in this and posted their own icons for share
i upload mine, using the MDPI ones
still on trial basis, but thats how it looks
get desktop visualizer from the market and you can do it how ever you want
already know bout that, and i already follow the guidance on the link
i just thought it would be fun if a lot of tab user like the appearance and starting to make the icons on their own, so that ppl who's incompetent with creativity and photoshop like me can enjoy other's creativity too ^^
i already got some though from that forum
Lol that looks interesting.
Btw the tab is a hdpi device.
ah, i see
i'll try to scrap from HDPI forum then hehe
thanks
You'll need more rows/columns with LP/ADW. Ill have a go at it in a bit to find the right layout needed.
Sent from my GT-P1000
seriously?
since almost all of them is using 4 column definitely, and not more than 6 as i recall coz most of them is using 4" smartphone
4 column being 3x1 and 1x2
but sure, give it a go
would love to get another input from another tab user hehe
what i'm curious is about getting unread number on text or mail or phone
already get the signed apk, but since it was originally for hero and friends, the ppi and the res and the blablabla is not correct when i installed it in tab, ended up in 1x1 widget when its supposed to be 1x2 on their phone
i think its awesome ... and works fairly well
my lock screen and 5 screen dock
Nice ^^
how to customize the lock screen though? never knew how ^^
so you make your own icons using that .psd given?
willing to share your icons? hehe

search in the market for widget locker, it lets you place wigets and customize the lockscreen to a extent, it was really buggy for me tho.
Do you know how to use Photoshop at all?

Photoshop? sadly, no lol
thats why i'm starting this thread so that more tab user making them and some willing to share their work, and i download it, for a mix and match
i'm grabbing some already from the original forum, but still i dont have all the needed icon like angry bird above or other games
maybe its a disgusting habit, but hey, thats all i can do for now ^^
as natious said .. its widget locker .. seems to be okay for me although i'm not trying to do anything to fancy with it
got most of my icons from the android forums in this thread
http://androidforums.com/android-themes/199936-android-phone-7-theme.html
They also have the psd files to make your own
oh, i guess i havent got to the last page then ^^ thanks
i know bout the psd files, but i really dont know bout photoshop, so its kinda useless for me
i'm guessing you're making it on your own coz their psd is 3x1 and 1x2 while some of your icon looks like 2x2

What launcher are you using, tomorrow i plan to whip something up like this, but im using adwEX and have 10x8 set so they most likely wont work for you unless you have the same number of cols/rows.
Do you have photo shop installed? It really isnt that hard to use, if you want todo basic things

I have my screen set up to 4 cols and 5 rows and 240 dpi (182 works okay too but the icons dont quite line up)
I just used the icons from the thread mentioned above and use launcher pro with the stretch option switched on

hmm
im using launcher pro, so i dont think i had a problem with using 10x8
no i dont have photoshop, but im using acdsee for resizing the icons i get for not aligned well
i get these icons that aligned pretty well and its around 158x150 for 1x1 width x height
so all i do was resizing them so it wont gap too much
hehe
what i mean with the photoshop is i'm using the picture i want, giving labels to them, thats what i can't do
maybe i'll install one later and try, it shouldnt be that hard supposedly

I whipped this up this morning, if you would like id share it with you and ill even make a couple icons, its still a wip i have atleast 20 more icons to make.
sure ^^
why not
the more the merrier hehe
thanks before
just a quick update
ok so here are the new screen shots and what i have changed. still working on icons and which apks to include as i do not want to suffer the same fate as some of those that are being reminded that warez is not aloud. i will pick those that suit it best for everyone. when ready to upload which i hope will not be too much longer. i hope that you guys enjoy it as much as i do. trying to mod all png images for apks that i can is being a little difficult so i will upload screenshots of those when i get them ready.
also if im not able to share at least you have an idea of what im running;-)
to all of you that have stopped in to comment and give feedback i much appreciate it and in hopes when this is ready and i am able to upload, you let me know what you think. Thanks again

Maybe white text color in the notofications drop down menu. Its a bit hard to see when black.
Other than that it looks really good

Hey!!
I m not being rude just saying my words...
First,ur colour choice its seems that its gonna be all blue, which is not so cool.
Second, status bar shade looks ugly to me....

Thanks for stopping and taking the time to comment. As i said its a work in progress. second its personal preference and nothing is in stone yet. so color choice really hasn't been decided. and i know alot of people that dig blue and would be happy to have it. thanks again for stopping in to comment though. i appreciate it and will do what mods i can.

Thank you for your feedback, white is exactly what i am thinking to put in the status bar and in the drop down. however, with the cyanogen mod settings installed, this can be done through there.
yet i dont want this to be just for a cyanogen settings phone. im looking into making it an available option for all 2.2 versions.
Black and purple just don't match up on the first SS.
Secondly the status bar is rarely ugly, all people will rather prefer just a colour (Black,white,blue etc)
Third the icon with all blue is not nice.

work in progress..... nothing set in stone yet, feedback is always appreciated. blue icons look great i think. if people hadnt already went ds with their themes already i would have a chance at one. however im workin with a variety but still trying to keep simple. work in progress. new screen shots coming soon to show the changes.
Way to go mate, it's a guttsy color scheme not my thing though. Purple and blacks like green on red, hard to read. I suggest keeping it simple, gentle but sharp.. I'll be way watching

new screen shots have been posted. hope its a little more to everyones liking as for what i have done. still modding pngs and what not. still have a little work to do on status bar icons. should have more done this weekend and ready to post on monday.
emm i think u should try lighter blue....like the color of the sea...sky or something like that if u want to go with blue...but i think is great....soon u will make a fine theme....also for the notification bar normally people would like white as a font because it is easy to read because of the background color....so if u stick with blue try make a light one...because it easy to contrast between the font and the background...anyway good luck dude....will follow ur progress...keep it up!!later u can make a theme with ur eyes close....haha....joking...
android 2.3?
how did u manage to get so many points in quadrant?)
btw - really unfortunate colors u've choses 4 ur theme (sry for my eng)
Need to say, Didn't like the theme at all, it's very simple with not good color scheme, but that score is AMAZING.
All themes should be unique, if the blue was slightly muted then it would be more appealing. But changing the density to 190 would make it aesthetically pleasing too... To be honest, the whole point of android os is the ability to create something unique, so well done

thanks for your comments. actually i did have a lighter blue at one time but didnt think that it really looked all that good, and really didnt go with the colors of the bee in wallpaper image. as im sure most users want there own wallpaper or background compared to using the one that is included with the package.
however, at the same time, there are those of us users who want everything we need and nothing we dont. meaning why add something or take something away if you really dont need to? i personally dont care for a large display of colors so keeping at least one color and having the rest black is suitable. so if all icons are black and blue. or black and green or black and yellow( yes pun intended if your heard this song). also the lesser value of bright colors means you dont have alot of bright screen when you dont need it.
my thoughts anyway

android 2.2 scores like this come from a multitude of things. the greatness of zdzihu for his 2.2b4, data2sd, xrecovery.
Sysctl
as for the color scheme. i notice there are alot of you out there that really dont care for it. and as i find this really hard to believe, wow! i like most themes that ive seen out there and am really impressed with all the work that was done to them. even though i dont care to use some of theme. as i didnt care for the status bar icons or in which color it was set. mainly the 2.2 white task bar. that drives me nuts!
feedback is always appreciated and am happy that you are one of the few people to stop in and read and comment shows that something might have caught your eye and you wanted to see where it goes. so that is appreciated as well.

i appreciate your view on "unique". to which if everyone wanted to really personalize their phone. they wouldnt want to try out what everyone, or anyone else has.
my first creation was black, purple and blue in some artistic paint splash decor for the statur bar and dropdown. it was nice for me other than not seeing the clock.
as changing the blue ill look into the density and take your suggestion into consideration.
for those that really dont like the clock, i like minium color as i use my device more at night and really dont care to put off a glow when using it. i like to see my device and not let everyone else see it.
especially when driving. i dont like a bright screen poopping in my face. i like something that just lights up with the perfect ambient light needed so im not too distracted.
Mods, please delete. as i have stopped working on this theme for now. this Thread is no longer needed. Thank you;-)
2720 in quadrant ? Respect
I would change the colour in the statusbar. Maybe a bit transparency would be nice And the pink text should be white or sth like that But all in all a good start
Sorry for my bad english
really not digging the new website design unless im going crazy and its still the same for everyone else
Not liking it either. But I guess I don't like to drastic of change to much . I'd like it better if it was a dark theme

Ugh.. Thank you!! I never would have thought to check!~
Only thing for me is the yellow is too bright, other than that the site is so minimal looking that its great
I like the 2013 glad were able to change back as I really hate the new one. 2013 one is much better, most of us guys dont like change its the women that try to change everything around its nice to be able to have some things stay the same.
I don't mind the design, but I wish more sites would stop stretching to fit the whole screen. A little margin on each side wouldn't hurt.
2010 version works for me!
I'd leave XDA if I couldn't change themes it's that bad...
Why are so many "improvements" just the opposite?
I wish people who have control of stuff would ASK first before screwing up our computers!

Just changed to 2010 mode, much better!
thanks everyone!!
This thread taught me how to change to the older version!!
I hated the new look, even tried to get used to it.
I didn't know about the dark theme. Appreciate that!
To the person who said they're messing up your computer, they are doing no such thing. It's their site, they're free to do with it what they want. Fortunately they give you choices. Most sites don't. Others have third-party fixes, like Reddit has Reddit Enhancement Suite and Facebook has Social Fixer. Or you can get Greasemonkey and apply fixes individually, or write your own if you know how (I don't).
