This is my first release of a theme or anything so i hope you like it screenshots are included
What it Does
Themes the following
check boxes (some of the HTC ones remain un-themed)
volume indicator (yellow)
taskbar (white)
all taskbar icons -BT, wifi, 3g, battery, 4g
menu selections (yellow AOSP selection)
power menu icons
what it doesn't do
it does not change the application icons except for settings
if you want aosp themed app icons i would suggest NonSence or bugless
Things to work out
the location service icon has been removed but still takes up a space in the taskbar (i do not know how to remove that so any help would be nice)

it should work with sence and it should also have the espresso dock on the bottom
there should be no reason as to why not although i have not tested it
Confirmed working with damagecontrol 3.2, only gripes with it are the 3g and reception icons in the taskbar are considerably lower res than the other icons, and the charging icon looks a little big and out of place.

i'm surprised about the lower resolution gripe cause i used higher resolution ones then the stock aosp
but thanks for the feedback
and as for the charging icon i assume you mean the one on the left (for switching between disc/charging) yeah i need to fix that
off topic note the search buttons look out of place when hitting the search button
Perhaps they got screwed over when the os tried down-sampling them itself?
Fadakar: I'm not seeing any difference whatsoever. Can you ss it?
good job. this looks awesome. glad you threw this together. I personally am allergic to anything resembling stock and i also had darchs aosp setups on hero, so its nothing new to me. i like a completely new experience. However i know theres a **** ton of aosp junkies that will love this. thanks​

You paste the same crap in EVERY thread. XDA should add the mod to allow users to ban other users by paying. Make money and clean out the crap threads.
I'd pay for a 2 year ban on that magnus dude just for making ugly themes.
Kinda harsh guys. But he should stay on topic.
Love the AOSP look. Just enough to hold me over until someone can make a full rom of it. Thanks!
Thanks
Added to themes in sticky thread.. Well done, thanks for sharing
failed to install via Amon_RA recovery. switching to clockwork to see how that fairs
edit: installed with clockwork i didn't wip anything maybe i should've wiped cache had a weird boot loop going would make it to lock screen and then restart
edit2: my sdcard was bad which impacted the system after fastbooting back to amons recovery and the nand backup i had there verified through my disk utility that the card was bad >_<
Good job...This is really cool!
a picture with htc sense and this theme would be nice i wanna c the taskbar with sense thanks

I also noticed that the 3g and bars were a little blurry. Not a big deal, but just for the record.
Anyone using this with DamageControl? Which version did you flash?
okay so an update to everyone who said that the icons were low res the system was using the wrong set of icons the 25x25 so i updated the package with flipz lock to contain the 38x38 icons
and later tonight i will upload the other one along with one with a clear lockscreen
still in the search bar the icons are dark when i switched them for the lighter ones every time i would hit search it would restart my phone so i gotta look into that some more
that should be about it
oh and sence still has the scroll page indicator but the espresso dock so it doesn't look great might revert back to stock sence if i have the time sorry
recommended with other launchers
i love this theme but for some reason when i get an email or message the icons on the taskbar have a black square around them instead of just being the message icon or the gmail icon
First off, let me just say that this forum rocks. Compared to other forums, this one has the best and most talented folks!
Here's what I'm trying to do... As I browse through all of these wonderful themes and customizations, I'd like to take bits & pieces from each and make my own custom theme.
I'm running stock sense and using LauncherPro Plus. I really just want to add the following elements:
Glowing circle battery icon
50% shade notifications
Darkstar custom font
Hide location icon
Custom status bar icon colors (see attached)
yellow clock
yellow 3g signal
blue bluetooth icon
red mute/silent mode
green wi-fi signal
Then, have all of this in one, easy, neat update.zip file. Is this possible? I've read posts about using MetaMorph, but I don't think you can customize these pieces individually, correct?
Thanks!!
I'm alnmost done with this =) I also added the transition and nontifcation bar transitions
Excellent!! Thank you!! I can't wait to see it!!!

Me too! Kinda what I'd want as well.
I think Pimp**** ran into some problems with his new theme. Not sure when he'll have time for this now. :-(
I would love to see this as well. Anyone making progress? I'll test or help where i can.

I'm glad there's sooo much interest for these status bar icons! I can't believe no one has done this yet. The stock icons are so "blah". I'm even surprised when browsing all of the custom ROM's out there!! A lot of black, white & gray.... no one likes to use color?!? LOL
Post your request for various mods you would like to see here guys!
not sure if its able to be done, but the "deathray/high brightness" mode on torch.apk doesnt work. i got so used to the REALLY bright led flashlight, now the normal one looks dull.
4x5 Gingerbread Rosies
Rotary lockscreen with controls
Myself and the 5-6 people I am updating phones for would really like a theme for 2.2 that looks just like 1.1. 1.1 is perfect.
Working Voicemail indicator - Flashable
Multi-Color Smooth Sense Circle battery - flashable
Location to see signal strength in the ROM?
Rosie remap function not working via Rosie Settings
Great ROM - thanks for building, maintaining, and for the tremendous support!
RNDIS support
Any chance you could include RNDIS support so wired tether will work?
I've tried other kernels but they don't boot (kings in particular)
Right now using the 2.20 install defaults I don't have either the usb or rndis directories:
/sys/devices/virtual/net/usb0/enable
or
/sys/devices/virtual/usb_composite/rndis/enable
I know wifi tether is all the hotness, but it's not as reliable as wired tether and I prefer wired (some of my equipment doesn't have wifi capabilities)
I'm a huge fan of the circle batteries. I like jdban's idea of the battery matching the other green icons (Wifi, Signal, etc) anyway you could make something like this http://androidforums.com/incredible-...rcentages.html with the actual percentage (1-99) in the middle and matching green color like the other icons? I think it would look sick! I usually don't like green colors on the Inc but I really dig the look of this and think adding to it will only increase it's freshness.
You know what else I think would look sick? The vanilla lockscreen from Warm (Black buttons with white highlights and no tabs) instead of the white, though make it the same color green that the wifi, signal (and maybe the new battery ) are. Can you picture it?? I think it would look amazing with the color scheme of your ROM. I wish I knew how to do it, I would start trying to make it right now. Also, maybe a green gmail icon to match?? Like the one in the TB when you get a new email? Haha, I'm obsessed with this ROM, hope you don't mind the suggestions

Circle battery (green)
and Rotary lockscreen
I have been looking through a lot of these requests, and I have to say +1 to all of them. Rotary Lockscreen would be awesome, and the circle battery indicator is something I greatly miss from the last rom I had. Something that is a concern to me is that the more that is added into the rom, the slower it gets. What is the potential slow down with all of these possible things being added into it?

Just like every other Mod, they will be optional zips that you flash in recovery. You want the circle battery, flash in recovery. You want the Vanilla LS, flash in recovery. They're modifications not a part of the actual ROM
For me, one thing is REALLY stopping me from flashing the Incredibly Re-Engineered is the fact that I REALLY need the Spanish package for SMS in Spanish.
So it will really be WAY nice to flash your ROM and then integrate the Spanish package into it.
Thank you SO MUCH.
full blue tooth support so i can play snes with my tv and a wii remote on my phone. or integrated wiimote support.
Stock Theme
A stock theme with all the optimizations or something closer to the 1.1 theme.
The market and gmail changes are cool but i'm old hat.
Thanks!
Flashable VM Indicator Fix
This dropped back in November when Myn's 2.2 VM Indicator was wonky.
I flashed on Incredibly Re-Engineered, v 2.2; it works.
hth those that had interest and were waiting for a fix.
Kind regards.
I'd like Tv-Out

I saw that. Nice work. Chingy hasn't been around much lately, maybe he's working on some of these mods Question for you, is your battery like the circle in the link I provided or the same rectangle battery with matching green color like the wifi and signal?
when scrolling through running processes, manage applications, as I scroll the background changes from white to the theme color (blue)
I cannot find anywhere in the theme where that background is ( in this case blue)
guessing it has to be in framework res or system
Help? Pleas, its all I need for my theme to be complete

On What ROM is this?
Are you talking about the overscroll effect on CM?
Screen shots would help us answer better too.

its MIUI and the Kobalt theme, I have no clue what overscroll effect means. But I would have to say no, with the knowledge I have.
Go to running processes,(or manage applications) the screen is white , as your finger scrolls the screen, it turns (in my case blue)
sorry I know all this sounds stupid, but I have about 80 hours into learning all this theming , Damn I learned how to get rid of everything on the status bar THAT was tough just cannot figure out where this background screen is
and yes I'll get some shots I am sure it will help
THANKS cannot wait to get this theme up. you will be the first I tell LOL
Are you on MIUI's latest build...2.3...? I could've answered off my head if you were on CM...just checking what MIUI build to dig into. Will also help other members reading this as well.

Yes it is. Btw I was a huge fan of CM, but damn the arguing and *****ing.....nightly builds (which I learned to skip several and wait) broke more than it fixed IMO
Still have it and still go back and forth, somewhat, , BUT I am really enjoying MIUI's "clean " UI
anyhow
tinkered alot with this one issue, and as you know, make one change, put it all together, and hmmmmm not that, so after about 20 of that I came here.
BTW gonna need somebody to test this when I am ready EVO4g, hard to believe I rooted my evo late March and I am at this point. My PC hacking days (mid 90's) have helped LOL
AND so you know I am not a kid, 55 and retired (33 years firefighter) everyone asked
whatcha gonna do with all that time.....LOL found it, for now
I could try it on my EVO for you if need be...I am on the same boat myself but with CM theme chooser. Lemme know once its ready. I will try dig into MIUI to see what I can find.
Fact about MIUI: the MIUI developers in China are implementing a new UI over the course of several weeks and some things are still buggy/half finished. This has been taking place since MIUI changed to gingerbread and anyone who's been running MIUI for a while remembers running apps in "compatibility mode" to make text appear. Graphics glitches have gotten better and better with each GB build of the ROM.
I have a theory: Since the devs began implementing these UI changes, I have also seen the effect that you are talking about, though it has decreased in frequency with every new build. It should also be noted that the color (which you described as blue) changes with whatever theme I'm running. I believe it to be a "glitch" in the UI due to lack of compatibility with certain devices or apps. The benefits of MIUI far outweigh such small glitches for me and I continue to run the ROM but that's the closest I can come to explaining the effect.

I believe your right, but my issue is......whether its the theme or the rom (your point) but hey its all fun , if you want I'll send you the theme also. I am digging this (70's) talk lol
see if I am right though, the MIUI stock rom is mostly orange, whereas the Kobalt is blue, BUT as you say ( follow me) change orange to blue and ???? I have changed several of Kobalts " backgrounds" (phone, toggles etc) to a plain blue. So maybe the stock MIUI rom is reading this light blue as a much darker blue. Make sense? What you posted does make sense to me.
Guess the only way to see all this is for me to send ya'll (southern) the theme
THANKS
Hmmm, upon re-reading the entire thread I feel as though I may have mis-interpreted your original question but yes, what you said makes perfect sense. Obviously some element of the themes is changing that background color but I'm not nearly advanced enough of a themer to begin to tell you where to look. If you were suggesting that you need someone else to run the "kobalt" theme to check for the same issue/see the color then I'm down to "dig" it, haha.

I agree what help, above and beyond, CM 3 pages of bashing I-phones HUH????
It comes from the cacheColorHint in the xml. a lot of apps have it that way but the background is the same color. do a search through the xml for cacheColorHint
Here it is
Well it is still not 100% done
so in a nutshell:
bootscreen is a re-do of cyanagen mod 7 (cannot find the original dev to give credit) took the text out and redid colors to blue
most everything else was hacked from kobalt blue
keyboard was from (i believe) honeybread theme
clock should not show up as I use a widget called make your own clock
a superb prog that puts it in text also allows battery % internal space used etc
mine is all blue to match the theme
revamped status bar as most of what was on it was redundant, use widgets on main screen ( again, make your own clock)
all I left was 3g data tx in green. Tried blue but I believe green catches ones eye quickly if no signal. bluetooth, and gps will show up in blue on status,( Side note, GPS was a ***** to do but IMO looks cool when it acquires the signal)
No wallpaper, IMO battery drain plus the blue on black looks good.
you will see I left some of Kobalts backscreens in , phone call and some others
toggle screen redone, also found a cool app that will show signal strength in dbm, no bars just text, IE. signal -98dbm, also can change to blue (this was a 4 hour project to find the one to fit the theme) it is called clarius signal. I use: one click widget, for brightness and volume. I use widget locker for my LS and have it all blue minimal text with Make your clock widget for time
Still left:
minor inconsistencies with colors ( backgrounds, static screens ETC) That is what started this thread LOL
SMS: could not find a way to alter Kobalts, gotta spend more time
Kobalts lock screen (easy to do just gotta get to it)
SO if any one wants to assist with getting more blue, jump right in, I only ask if you do, to zip it up and share. When it is all done we will share the credit
REMEMBER to change zip to mtz (for the noobs)
ENJOY ( I am at easily 100+ hours , trial and error as I go) Lots of PATIENCE
Damn just noticed 8 mb on zip upload....hmmmm gotta change game plan
This should work

My original question w/sshots, this is manage apps, the white is statis the blue is scrolling. The blue is what I want to find to lighten up.
I do not see cacheColorHint in any xml's

Hi everyone.
I come from a Motorola Backflip, that although was a POS device, and didn't get root until ~6 months after release, I used to run CM6/CM7 on it and enjoyed using custom themes. In particular, I really enjoyed those slick, minimalistic themes. I know that there is a popular theme being developed (BlueICS or something) and I don't really dig the extravagant graphics and shading and everything, and much prefer a simple, minimalistic approach to theming. I know that once we get CyanogenMod fully ported to this device, a big number of options will open up for us, but as of right now, is anyone working on any other themes for the existing ROMs we have for this device? Such as a minimalistic theme? Sorry that I don't have any examples of what I'm looking for but I'm sure if you search for some you'll find some good ones around XDA. I'm sure some other people also prefer a similar look to their device and I was just wondering if anyone more capable than myself had considered working on such a theme.
Nova
I know its not the same, but have you tried using Nova?
I am on cleanROM 2.5 SE and I found the Sense a bit to "busy", I flashed the blueICS theme, and I liked the blue icons in notification as well as some of the other changes that were made it it, but I found using the free version of Nova was more then enough to simplify the general feel of the app drawer and desktop. This takes a little work and would be easier to just flash a theme, but its working great for me, and no theme would make it feel perfect for me?
If that makes sense?
or I could be completely off topic...
Hi, yeah, I'm currently running CleanROM DE and using Apex Launcher and I agree that the launcher does make a difference in the overall look/feel of the device but I'm talking about a full, complete themeing of the device (including stock HTC Sense apps. Here, I included some links of some kinds of themes that I'm talking about (yes, I know that some are for Eclair/Froyo/Gingerbread). I also took some screenshots of them in case you don't feel like opening the links.

Got it, currently I have a stack of paps that allow me to get a similar appearance to the dark theme above. It would be nice if a gracious themer would create such a wonderful
