Here is Gingerbread. I will be updating this as time goes on! Credit to Cyanogen for CM6.1.1 and jblazea50 for the original port. In no way do I take credit for anything ROM wise. This ROM is totally Cyanogen besides graphic wise. I am making a new thread so I can update the OP.
NOTE: This isn't just a theme but a themed rom. This is CM6.1.1 Final with the theme in it.
NOTE: I am not responsible for any broken/bricked/jizzed on phones...
Installation instructions:
Download both files and place on root of your sdcard.
Reboot into recovery.
Full wipe RECOMMENDED (although some have done it without).
Flash themed rom.
Flash themed gapps.
Reboot.
DO NOT PLAY WITH NOTIFICATION BAR COLORS OR XML! Only change clock colors and notification colors or it will screw the notification bar up!
Changelog:
V0.2 - Updated to 6.1.1 and based of Nexus S system dump.
V0.1 - Basic gingerbread elements.

I tried that but they still showed up green. I was sure they were white too, i think something was up with my phone lol Ill try on pc later. Thanks for this update, cant wait to flash soon but the wifey wont stop texting me lol
Is there anyway I can possibly port this to a Sense ROM? I have an AOSP theme for sense that I could possibly swap icons, and stuff from notification bar, but I've tried that somewhat already and keep boot looping...
Very nice. Thank you.

I already have the previous version of the theme and have tweaked some other things I would prefer not to flash over... what file(s) would I need to edit to just change the notification bar to solid black?

This is a very simple METAMORPH THEME. It puts in a black status bar with Hero-style icons.
Also added:
Green highlights
Blacked out search bar (Made by Manup456)
Transparent notification shade
Green lights on power control widget
Changelog:
Added green highlights to GenieWidget
Lowered transparency on notification shade
2/5/10
Repaired GenieWidget so it no longer malfunctions on touch when only displaying news feed.
Added green highlights to the power control widget.
Changed the shade of green on widgets to match better.
This is NOT a regular theme. It is a Metamorph.
To use: download and install AndExplorer and Metamorph from the market. Both are available for free.
**PLEASE NOTE** After applying morphs, you will need to reapply your widgets. Metamorph has always been this way. They are not broken, they just need to be trashed and reapplied.

thanks bro!
Man I've never used metamorph before
I got the apps from the market like you said and downloaded this right to my phone! Work like a charm bro!!
Thansk to that!
Are you going to pimp this out full theme like?
I can add more, but stayed simple since I love the way the N1 looks. I just hate the standard status bar.
id love a hero style theme
Yo bro!
Id live hero themes and no one has doe one yet!
Would be awesome!
Nice change, I'll try it out.

OK everyone, new link added to bottom of OP for CyanogenMod Morph.
Just installed the H icon looks a bit awkward to me but other than that it looks good.
Edit: Oh the H icon looks weird because it has a border around it. In the Modaco version I don't think it had that border around the 3G icon.
Theme looks classy. I also love the look of the stock N1 but this black bar looks so much nicer. I'm on CM5.0 beta-2.
A clear bar theme for Metamorph
Make a nandroid backup before install.
Launcher (not included) is non standard.
Cred to Know-Fear and Manup456 for bits and pieces

I put up a updated version that have better icons, should fix that error.
There is a problem with some apps: gmail and browser as example. These have white bars in the app and it will not be shown correctly.
quick fix lol.... now the only thing i see wrong is when using gmail bar is still white with messd up icons and when sliding down the bar the date covers the icons, is it possible to show one instead of both overlappn on the status bar when u slide it down ?
(Edit) also happns n market and browser with the white bar...

You have to install it with Metamorph (free in market) and Andexplorer (also free). Its not to be flashed.
Oh crap.... hence "for metamorph"
Sorry...
Ok got it. Thanks for the help...
Any chance of making this a full theme and not a metamorph theme? I hate having additional overhead for a theme
The earth live wallpaper matched with this morph looks great; thank you.
What a great, nice notification theme. Finishes my phone perfectly. Great Work!!!

I tested this again with Enomther 1,51 without any error.
This is probably my favorite of all MODS!! It's the white taskbar with the black time in the white taskbar...and black time and date in the statusbar (Thank you so friggin' much JsChisurf!!) This also has colorful icons in the taskbar as you can see from the pictures below
JUST ADDED A WHITE ROSIE TO THE WHITE TASKBAR THEME!!
Just flash over your current ROM and you will be good to go!!

Yes...every ROM is going to have a few lingering icons from downloaded apps that show up in the taskbar with a black box around them. My ROM Aloysius and my themes have virtually no icons with black boxes.....as I have gone though out the ROM and found 98% of all the lingering taskbar icons and made them have a transparent backdrop

Side note:
Backup app........My Backup or Titanium and does Titanium backup up your sms and phone logs?
I have to agree....I like SNOW...but miss my little buddy's icon's that used to show up where I didn't have pictures associated with contacts...ok too picky
I just saw this and it looks sweet as hell...nice job! Question,if I flashed your theme over my DC Rom, Do I just flash the "White Snow Theme" over that to get the white taskbar?
Also do this include all the customizations you did for the DC theme..different icons with all the color etc or is this just for the taskbar only?
Gonna be flashing this once i hear back from you....wow this is nice!
Is there any way I can just get the task bar without all the other mods (lockbar rosie etc)??? I've tried editing the zip, pushing the services.jar and something always breaks...

This is not a big update but is different, and with 2.2 I felt the other thread was getting messy with all the 2.1 stuff.
This is basically the same with the addition of one image file.

I think this makes it easier to see the Rosie Launcher and works good.
For now I only have the one stock green color.
Feel free to make requests.
this was tested to work fine on the stock 2.2 RUU.
this does NOT require a deodexed ROM.
does however require S-OFF and MetaMorph.

I went and got permission from mb02 to be able to port his shaded status bar into a metamorph. I take no credit for this,, all I did was port this to be a meta morph theme and that is it. original thread
the great suggest came from Teh_Higgins to port it to use with this.
use with metamorph. may need to apply a few times. that is normal. Also check in your framework-res folder to see if you have drawable-hdpi or drawable hdpi-v4, this comes included with hdpi, but sometimes people have the -v4 and if that's so just edit the file to have the -v4.
shaded bar download
I like the idea, but having the whole thing a solid transparent kind of feels weird when matched with the notification bar being solid. Maybe keep the default design the same, but make it transparent, so the buttons still have some darkness to them.
Also does this cause us to lose the home screen indicator?

Aw shucks. lol
I am unaware of the details of theming. Does this just affect the appearance of the rosie launcher, or is it a "version" of rosie (so to speak)? Reason being that i want to try out the new build of skyraider but he uses the espresso version of rosie. Any idea what result this theme would get or should i just try it out and report back?
EDIT: I like to use the round battery, would i still be able to install it over your metamorph theme or continue to use the framework.apk swap method?
i downloaded the stock green v3 one and applyed it in clockwork mod and it didnt work. do i have to modify anything? im running virtuous 2.6

This isnt a clockwork mod zip, it is meant for use inside a program from within android called "meta morph", its on the market, you will also need "busybox" installed
you should read up about this stuff till you hate it, then your ready to try to use it.
cool dled metamorph and applyed it. me gusta
im applying the shaded status bar mod in metamorph right now and its been applying framework-res.apk for like 5 minutes and is still loading it. is that normal?
Anyway we could get the right button remapped to open the browser, this would pretty much make this perfect.
I wish my friend. I've tried, I've searched, I've seeked help from those with the know. It's alot of work and it was work I couldn't figure out. Drove me crazy for about a week, then I finally let it go lol. I wanted the stock SMS to the right button. The author or Sky Raider is working on a final release that will have these types of things I guess. From what he told me I am understanding it as it'll be for his ROM but an add on for other roms as well, so i hope, not that his ROM isn't great.
oh skyraider al ready has it working, you can download it already. i'll try it on a stovk froyo sense that is deodexed
the only way to do it is to take the rosie.apk and com.htc.resources.apk from skyraider and use it on stock deodexed. although this will give you the 5 aoo row in drawer and iltt say skyraider..
I am running CM7 the latest stable release, April 11th or so. I want to have a white notification/status bar with the time, clock, battery, alarm, gps, and 3g text in black. Also I want the drop down notification menu to also be white. Basically, black/dark gray and white/light gray completely inverted of what it looks like now. There are a couple ADW themes, such as "ADW.theme.one", whose screenshots show this type of color scheme, but for some reason do not have this effect on my phone.
Yes, I know there is a kitchen for doing this, but it doesnt change the color of the text. I know that this is possible by editing framework-res.apk. I just need a little help finding this file, knowing what values to change, and then how to apply/flash it back to the phone to make the changes. Please help?

Thanks, and I appreciate the reply. But not what I asked. I really want to learn how to edit the framework file so I can do it myself.
But this will do for now. I just need to find a nicer wallpaper to go with it!

Thanks, and I appreciate the reply. But not what I asked. I really want to learn how to edit the framework file so I can do it myself.
But this will do for now. I just need to find a nicer wallpaper to go with it!

I went through this same thing a while ago. Download NinjaMorph, and that will extract your framework. Most of the files you'll play with will be in drawable-hdpi. When you extract the framework-res.apk, it'll show you all the PNG files. I'd just transfer everything to your computer, change what you want in drawable-hdpi (I know the notification icons are there, I'm not sure about the bar itself - I've never messed with it), and then put it back on the SD card. Ninja Morph will recompile the framework-res and replace the one in your system folder.

i see theme chooser, not manager. theme chooser doesn't let you do anything other than pick an overall blue, green, or default theme, sadly

You can try to figure out how to edit the framework file, but you might be better off figuring out how to create themes for CM7.

That link is a good overview of the theme engine. The fourth link on that page has a good how-to on creating themes. While it might be simpler to modify your framework file to change your notification bar now, that framework file changes with new releases of CM7. The theme engine is made so that it works across all versions.

This is a great read, but seems extremely complicated. Thanks!

Im curious about this too. Is there a such thing as theme manager or was that just a mistake?
I really liked the ability to alter the colors in the previous build...

I am running CM7 the latest stable release, April 11th or so. I want to have a white notification/status bar with the time, clock, battery, alarm, gps, and 3g text in black. Also I want the drop down notification menu to also be white. Basically, black/dark gray and white/light gray completely inverted of what it looks like now. There are a couple ADW themes, such as "ADW.theme.one", whose screenshots show this type of color scheme, but for some reason do not have this effect on my phone.
Yes, I know there is a kitchen for doing this, but it doesnt change the color of the text. I know that this is possible by editing framework-res.apk. I just need a little help finding this file, knowing what values to change, and then how to apply/flash it back to the phone to make the changes. Please help?

I just remember having it with CM 6.0 and I loved it, and then it was gone! lol
I downloaded the JamT theme, and that makes it look alright, I just recently switched to a honeycomb theme, but now I'm back to regular cyanbread
