Why are more themers NOT using the theme manager in CM7? I think this is one of the absolute COOLEST additions to CM7 and cant find that many themes that support it.
What gives? It it SO much better than having to boto to recovery and flash every time, and if you dont like it, its SUPER easy to get back.

I still like to flash because I know it's made for my device. Plus, correct me if I'm wrong.. but theme chooser doesn't give you things llike widgets?
I use Sonnys themes here because it gives me a bunch of widgets and apps that are themed.. as well as lockscreens, notification pulldowns.
That said, I wouldn't have an issue applying a theme then pushing the widgets I want, but I haven't found any that are really my style.

I think themers are still unlocking the potential of theme manager. Over the past two weeks I've seen more and more complex themes being released. Personally I love the theme manager and how easy it make to hop from theme to theme.
I'll be keeping my themes flashable for a while still. In order to get them on theme manager, I'd have to re-do everything (again). Also, themes installed through the theme manager app can't modify a lot of things that make a theme look "complete" and I'd rather release a flashable theme that covers all the bases than a theme for the theme manager that only gives you half of it.

Stock clear taskbar by Rujelus on first page. If you are themed this will revert lockscreen, notification window etc
--
Hi, I was wondering if anyone can make a flashable clear/100% transparent taskbar and clear/100% transparent sense bottom bar launcher.
Ideally, the bottom bar launcher would be something like
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=385691&d=1282488980
in burst's plurstaralpha theme, which is transparent but with visible interactive buttons
The taskbar would be similar to riptide's current
http://www.johnwishon.com/themes/riptide9.png
In similar threads i've seen at least half a dozen people ask for these things, so i wouldn't be alone in using these.
Anyone who can help, it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

I've been wanting JUST a clear taskbar for a while now. I don't want 4 million changes in a theme package, it's always one or two things I want. Wish they'd do a lot more splitting up of the mods so you can pick and choose what all you want.
I really want the clear bottom bar launcher. And the 3d app drawer.
What would it take to get all the devs together to create a Theme Kitchen?
Or maybe just the top 5 devs or something. Because there are some really nice themes out there, and like jlechner says, the ability to pick and choose parts out of themes would be really nice.

Going to try something, my method won't be flashable but it might work...
Kitchen definitely would be nice though.

you can get that stuff using launcher pro. but you want to keep the htc sense also right?
pretty sure konikub made one, as I have flashed it. I dont know if I have the zip but im pretty sure if you searched konikubs posts you will find what you are looking for. Here is his 2.2 theme post, not sure if its in here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=746689
EDIT: I have something called DC-FRESH_AloysiusClearTaskbar-signed, search the forum for it if that is what you are looking for
Here you go, this is completely stock except the two things that you wanted. As far as making a kitchen, I have no clue on that.
RUJELUS22_Clear.zip
How do I remove this? I flashed it and it looks horrible. It's messed up when I swype down to see my notifications. I'm using Fresh 3.1.0.1

Reapply whatever previous theme you had to replace the framework-res package that made these changes i think.
It looks good, and I do appreciate the work you put into this Rujelus, thank you
unfortunately, since I had manup's theming, it reverted my clear lockscreen, clear notification bar, clear calendar widget back to stock and left black bordering around some of the smooth revolution battery, signal etc icons.
I thought framework theming was seperate lines that were added/removed but looks like its more complicated than i thought : /

Like I said this is completely default except the 2 edits. These edits are just pictures inside framework-res and com.htc.resources there is no way that I know of to add something like this to the theme you already using unless you do the edits to the files that you are using right now. When you do an update.zip it will replace the whole file not just the edited parts.
Oh : (
Thank you for your efforts

I've searched this forum for the last week on and off since going with RR213/#4 and loving it. I'd like to tweak it a bit to my taste though.
I can't seem to find add on or theme that will work other than in this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=827081
I've tried so many themes, circle batterys, status icons and none have worked with RR because Lou is a little ahead of his time with the way he breaks out the different elements of this rom.
Hopefully if there are other add ons that work with RR 213 the links can all be posted in this thread.
I'm a dev and didn't dig too deep, but it appears all the mods out there need to be "paired down" for compatibility with Lou's Redemtion roms.
If anyone else has any add ons or themes working please post thread here so we can have a single location to find anyting that is working with Redemtion roms.
Thanks.
I agree the inc /evolution hybrid is a bit different than regular oem sense roms. But its the best running sense rom I've used bar none with #4 kernel. I have a metamorph mod for the entire notification bar pm me if your interested in using it.

What are you trting to accomplish? With the help of many of the developers, I have been able to make flashable rosie mod remaps. There are numberous battery immages that you can use if you replace the images in the Framework and resources apk's. It is easy enough to make a flashable zip of those things.
I have attached some screen shots of changes I have made. On the stock Rosie, I made it semi transparent and used JsChiSurf's remaps to create different rt button combos (I have adjusted the images). Different Icon sets in the notification bar as well as different battery mods. There is also an image of the Carbon Expresso version rosie.
But will we lose the 4x5 app drawer? And the transparency? That's what the op was asking I think, for mods specific to RR2.1.3....
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Mine is the 5x5 with transparency. I also have the version that says "all apps" instead of redemption. I can make it 4x5 as well. I just need to remeber what the file was.
Everything in my screen shots are done in RR 2.1.3.
Cool I have some metamorphs...maybe we should start a RR mod thread.

Thanks that worked with Slayer Black Bar.
ADDON_V12_3_70_Only_BlackTB_SlayersTransitions causing fc on all apps and rebooting. Doing restore.
.
Trying ADDON_R9V8_BlueGlassTB_signed_wTra.zip next.
Force close after boot up on everything, looks nice though, gonna have to recover again.
Am I missing something, is there some other framework that is required besides stock rr2.13?

You have custom zips? How about sharing, your screen shots look good or is that the whole theme you used?

Dude your flashing slayers framework when you flash his taskbar mod unless he used metamorph. Also you can't flash any service or framework jar or you will lose the taskbar power mod. You can change any image you want with 7zip.

THIS IS A PORT OF THE BLUEBERRY THEME FOR LIQUID
FROZEN YOGURT 1.95. THE ORIGINAL POST IS HERE

THING TOGETHER!!
Ok, this is my second theme for Gummyjar 2.1. Actually its my second theme ever This is a complete theme, most system apps are themed, including phone, gallery, music, google search bar, and many more. The blue is very dramatic but im surprised by how well the theme flows. This will install adw launcher and if you use launcherpro, there is a few quirks, nothin major. You might not even notice
Get it here:

If you notice anything I should change let me know, enjoy!
**When you download the theme, dont freak out when you see its called something-something D2_DX, it will work for both
Thanks alot I'm loading this right now
I hust recently discovered that app Chooser was in my list after toying with the nightlies for some time. Iowa's quoted excited to be able to switch to rovers theme in there, but decided to flash the frosty(?) theme. I ended up losing my clock and noticed that a lot of rovers stuff was left over (kinda nice as I like the batt/signal icons). Any way...is there an appropriate process to getting new themes to fully take? I had to restore in order to get my clock back rather than just reapply the theme.

Reapply the System theme in the Theme Chooser. Then reboot. Success.

I want to implement my icons into a theme, and my questions are:
First question: Does the cm9/aokp (prev cm7 themes) have the capability of theming all application icons, including non-system apps?
Second question: Is there a way to make the theme only apply icons, and nothing else.
My goal is to create a theme that is just icons, due to the limitations of the theme chooser (my understanding is one can only have a single theme applied at once). This way someone could apply my icons, and then install a theme via flashing it, to have the best of both worlds.
Any help would be appreciated, I couldn't find an answer otherwise.

I Googled your question to find out that there's one theme in the play store that is a "cm9/aokp (previously cm7 theme)" they actually say they had to port it to cm9 (read the theme's info on play store), anyway the developer says that the icons come in a separate package -for the moment, IMHO and since these people have promised to have the third party apps in the coming weeks, then it is possible as long as there are people who have already been working on it.
Good luck.
Take a look at the Cobalt, Crimson Cobalt, and Purple Kush themes. They work really well and look good, they also theme 3rd party app icons (I noticed ES file explorer and Google Chrome were themed.) You can look through the apk to see the method of third party theming, i'm sure it isn't too hard with the theme chooser implemented.
