Edit: One little bug found. When I download something from the market, the text around the progressbar in 'ongoing' is black instead of white.

It looks very nice, great work!
You should consider porting into some popular 2.2 ROM, like Wolfbreak's for example.

Hmm that's odd. Im running just stock firmware so maybe its cus u on a custom firmware.
I running 2.1. B. 0..1 stock, power button functions as normal.
When i get time ill flash ewjet and see if i can find the problem.

I installed some old themes ment for the .435 SE version and everything was normal, so possibly the theme and ROM are not campatiable. Although I am using EWjet's 001 who is based on the 2.1.B.0.1 .
I will install the stock ROM and test the theme later today, in case its something weird with my phone

I pulled the images from an arc firmware. Basically there are quite a few that controll lockscreen. All can be found in framework res.
Ill name one file cus i not at pc, but rest are names similar, not hard to find.

No problem ....if you get stuck give me a shout. I no expert but xda and google are lol.
@all
Version 2.0 final be coming today or tomorow.
Major bug fixed atlast....seondary popup menu text (after clicking on "MORE" on say browser app for example) is now fixed. Its white like all other text.

@Ketto
The hardest part is the .9png and editing .xml. So start with just trying to change some status bar icons and see how you go as they are normal .png's

BEFORE DOWLOADING READ CAREFULLY. THIS PROCEDURE WORKS FOR ME AND MY BUDDIES I TEST WITH & I DO NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY TIME WASTED DUE TO LACK OF KNOWLEDGE WHICH IS SUPPLIED BY ME IN THE OP:
(there has been confusion about the changes in the new rom, consequently forcing me to edit the mod)
sorry about any issues everyone. let me clarify a few things while i answer some questions along the way. I tested both of these myself and spent all day getting my new mod to work with 27#1 and 27#2. between ALL the nightlys and the RC1 i have NEVER done a COMPLETE wipe. I got 4.2 and 4.3 to work with my 27#1 & 27#2. SInce all these issues that i cannot recreate, i will limit the use of 4.2 & 4.3 to everyone above release 27#2 to avoid further problems. i need more help testing to figure out what is going on for everyone else. i listed my procedure and thats how ive done it from the beginning and ive never had to wipe my data and have only had fc's with a program that i removed which did not come with cyanogenmod. so def. not cyans rom;my own fault. I will change the op to say 4.2 and 4.3 will only work on 27#2 until i can test further. i worked till 835pm thru 22 bootloops to finally figure out the issue and get them to boot on top of my 27#2 which i flashed ontop of 26 which i flashed ontop of 25,etc....flashing my mod inbetween every rom install to get all my addons back.

(previous post for 1st power-up below) only to be used on the 1st 2 nightlies
hello, when i woke up this morning and saw the awesome news i couldnt help but do what i do. so i themed my favorite kb cyan to match the cyan rom. im still testing it. i put this together so that anyone who wanted to flash just one rom and get everything else they needed in one more flash(if they wanted the xtras) plus a few other utilities that we are used to(a little remnant from sense as well). this is the version with google craps built in. thats most of the addition. the rest are small other than the sweet new kb. man cyan looks sooo much better than green. iim still editing MY own setup now. I will update this accordingly. the pack will include the new cyan kb, and the googles. I take no credit for anything here other than theming the swype, adding a bunch of files to their corresponding folders,signing, flashing,testing, and then ul'ing. I forgot to mention, i added flash 10.1 blahblah(it works awesome) and wifitether works too(see screens below) i was going to theme the adw, but im still deciding. if i do it will be a white transparent rather than smoke. maybe later today EVERYONE thank CYANOGEN, this is awesome.....
SCREENS
INSTRUCTIONS:
1.Push to Recovery
2.Flash cyanogen nightly
3.REBOOT
4.REBOOT RECOVERY
5.Flash the zip
6.Enjoy
let me know if anyone has any issues. i will help how ever i can.
FYI this is just a MOD, not a ROM
please dont come here and attempt to flame me because thats not why im posting, so if you dont like this or its not for you, just move along....THANK YOU

OP, any way to get the Notification bar to be black with white texts?

I have to hex edit the value for the text. lemme find it and ill see what i can do. messing with taskers can sometimes be alot of editing when you have to make them all white all black or transparent takes the longest, just depends what color youre coming from. ill find that guide when i get a chance and ill post here or pm. you should give the white a chance, its very clean looking actually, not telling you what to do, just a suggestion that cant hurt.
I'm sure the white looks great. I'm just not a fan of it. When I had the Nexus One, I always changed it to black. Now, I keep my notification bar hidden since I don't really need it. I just prefer the black.
Don't worry about it if it will take too much time. It's not a big deal.
Thanks
Approve! nicely done man
This is dope, i usually think your themes are a little too much for me ( i still commend you for the hard work though, not hating in any way just not my taste sometimes ) but this is awesome. About to flash now, thanks man.

I used to think the same thing, but it seems that they're a bit more refined now and less clunky.
Good work, Magnus.
I agree, very nice looking theme here.
I'm too chicken sh_t to flash the rom tho with all the problems it has right now....but if I get brave and do it...I will definitely flash this theme.
All the people wanting a black notification... go to settings, cyanogen settings, and change the colors and reboot... that's it

Dont be scared trust me. once you do youll kick yourself for not doing it sooner. i dont blame you for being cautious though( i value my evo greatly) ive been running it since i put this mod together, and man, team cyan are awesome. its so smooth running. if you have any issues i will gladly help you get rolling. only issues are the 4g and mms for me and i dont use either and i never have so i dont lose anything. i was happy with hero_overs pastry till this morning. NOW I HAVE BOTH CAMS AGAIN. JOY....

NICE!!!
Great overall, Only thing bugging me is the font. Great work though!!
So how do you change the font? Are they gonna flash through zip?
Magnus, I must say, this theme is actually pretty decent. I know I've ripped on you for your themes before, but you definitely toned this one down a lot and made it a lot nicer to look at, so congrats on the job well done. I do agree with a few of the other people in this thread though regarding the font...its not an easy font to read, especially not on a phone screen. I'm not sure how the whole font things work, but if you can push any font in, might I suggest Nobile regular. Its a nice, clean font created by Vernon Adams that I think would have fantastic readability on a mobile screen. It is licensed under the Open Font License, so it should be perfectly legal to use it in a free project like this. I've attached a zip of the font to this post.
edit: I just pushed Nobile to my phone via ADB and it looks really nice. I think you should consider it for your default font for the theme, or perhaps find a different clean font that fits your liking.

¤¤ [Theme] Smooth Blue v0.7 [10/30] [MIUI 0.10.29] ¤¤ [READ OP]

NOTICE: This thread will no longer be updated! To get the latest updates, visit the new thread here!
This is a custom theme I made for the MIUI ROM. I'm in no way a fan of the stock orange colors Android chooses to use, so I did some work of my own.
Please do not repost (or port & upload) my work without permission; do not claim any of my work as your own; I've put a lot of time into making this what it is today. Before doing anything questionable, ask yourself how you would feel if someone took credit for your work. Thanks for understanding.
¤Changes:
- Almost all orange changed to blue, including highlight text.
- Completely custom, visually appealing UI.
- White pulldown menu rather than the off-white standard.
- Themed system apps.
¤ If you have any suggestions or improvements, please let me know! Any input is appreciated.
This was built to work on HTC Incredible and Desire. If you want a port, request one. May work on Evo 4G.
¤Download:
•v0.7 - Minor tweaks, rebuilt using 0.10.29 English source.
http://bit.ly/aPG96S
Screenshots:
[very outdated, new ones will come in time]
¤¤¤ As a way of saying thank you, it would be a big help if you guys would use my Dropbox Referral Link to make an account [real or fake] so I can keep hosting files for the community; it's filling up rather quickly! ¤¤¤
Enjoy!

Thanks so much for the icons
how deep does the theme go?
Hey there. Thanks for this! I don't like the orange so much. Like Blue a little better at least
Anyway, is the theme supposed to carry into the dialer and messaging and such? When I press numbers in the dialer, they are orange. Selections in the messaging app are still orange as well, as is the orangish background. Wasn't sure these were supposed to be affected by the theme.
Regardless...Thanks again! Closer to getting the phone to the way I like it to look.
I have the same problem– force close on setcpu when i try to create a profile..ive tried diff kernels and did a clean install..no issues till after installing the theme.

That's a system issue not related to my theme. I've been wanting to tweak the "recent apps" screen for some time now, but haven't found out how yet.

Blue Themed Status Bar, Battery Mod, & Pulldown Notification Window

UPDATES
version 2
I just wanted to share with you all my custom status bar, honeycomb style battery mod and drop down window for all GINGERBREAD & FROYO GSM roms with CWR except cm7 (I will make one if interest arrives)
CDMA users: SOMEONE SEND ME A STOCK FRAMEWORK.APK
I took the gingerbread overcome gold theme and icons and changed some things.
Thanks to the overcome gold guys.
Thanks to mendozinas for making most of this possible.
Here is what I changed.
*BatteryMod - changed it to a colorful blue hybrid Honeycomb style icon, that shows percentage, and changes progressively from red (low batt) to yellow, light blue then a darker blue. Appears on your lockscreen also.
*Window Animation - TAKEN OUT, BACK TO STOCK AMINAMTIONS upon request.
*Changed overscroll glow colors to custom light blue, dropped transparency of windows
* Status bar icons are now blue
*Status bar - changed background
*Status bar time is now blue. so are written notifications. New blue status bar system radio icons
*Dropped transparency of carrier label
*Customized the Drop down window. window is 0%, also altered style and color of Notification bar, header is transparent now. Made Background transparent around 4 service icons its now blue on black with white text for ongoing items, instead if black on black, dropped transparency
* made the colors more uniform
*A few more things.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL GSM USERS
ALLWAYS do a nandroid backup of anything you change, so you can revert easily. I prefer cwr backups.
Have cwr
Just download correct version and place on sd card. (BlueBarMod ZIP is for gingerbread and FROYO ZIP is, well.......)
flash in CWR.
use fix permissions option.
Reboot and enjoy
Just wanted to share.

Installed on Overcome RC1 (Haven't gone Gold yet... still doesn't seem quite right)
Everything looks GREAT! No offense to AB86 or the Overcome team, but the notification bar on RC1 was not functional. This looks great, and I love the animations! The new clock font for the lockscreen is pretty cool too.
All in all, 9 stars out of 10
Also... since you obviously know the answer to life , the universe and everything("42"), I wont mention what I think would make it a 10/10
No offence mate but how do I go back to the stock notification layout? Its really awesome, just too much eye candy for me Hope you can help me out here mate.
Cheers!

Rule #1 of flashing ANYTHING. Nandroid first, flash second.
You need to reflash your stock ROM most likely... Unless you can piece together what changes where made and rewrite your framework.... Yeah, that'd be fun :/ Or if you have a Nandroid, use it... But if it's not recent, you'll loose any changes since the backup.
Fantastic work mate. Genuinely different from most I have come across and fun too!! The fonts very cool I think, not sure about its longevity but for now I'm enjoying it.
Cheers.

anything you want changed? I know the window animation isnt for everyone. try spare parts to make the animation much faster.

Good work man. Just a tip and a request. First add an extra step of fixing permissions after flashing this in tabs that has other modded themes otherwise it will flash but wont be applied on boot.
As for the request (you did say you were open for change). Can we have the notification area clear instead of white grid (hehe reminds me of primary school math notebooks).

100% Stock Gingerbread theme..

Id like to know if there is a very plain and basic 100% Stock Gingerbread Theme for the Galaxy Tab. The Galaxy has always these ugly blue paddings, borders and tabs while the stock Gingerbread is mostly BLACK (which saves battery) along with orange highlights. I'm running Overcome ROM v3.1.0 KRATOS Gingerbread and really would like to make it look just plain vanilla 100% stock!
Thanks for the advice.
Here it is. Almost like the original.
New version 19.09.2011.
-fixed charging animation (not tested)
-darker Volumebar
-Black titlebar replaced by another guy. Thanks!
-new Text colors
-black themed Jobmanager and settings.apk from biopsin and sohrab1985 (thanks)

additional apps will follow, but for now: I just added mms.apk from Nexus S and the blacked out gmail. If you don't lik the apps just remove it from the zip before you flash.

That's not possible. When I have a look on the Gmail Settings, I can see the same Bar with the same damn font.
And just FIY: I need to know the hole path and not just the xxx.apk.
But thanks anyway

Hey Guy,
After a few days trying, i have to give up. I can't find the responsible pic for the black banner in the settings. I know it musst be a file in the framework-res.apk, but where?
Sorry. Maybe i try it later again but for now, i quit.
hi.
I can live with it. its better than any transparent theme. Thanks
Yea, it was a great idea. I live with it too

This is only the case with amoled screens, it does not apply to LCD screens like the Tab has. The same amount of power is used to display a black pixel as is used to display a white one.
I believe your problem is the dark_header.png try this framework, i cant test it ATM. Heres the png too.
Fantastic! It works. I will implane it in the download file. If i find the time.
Thanks man
so.....where is the file?

OK, installed it and it looks great!! I will keep it, very very good job thank you very much!! Some of the dialogue screens seem more square than they were originally and many icons (like settings and shot off screen) totally lost their color also, but its OK, I like the look
I have a question, you replaced the WIFI meter icon on the upper task bar with the stock one which looks perfect now. A friend of mine also with KRATOS on his Tab wants to keep the stock KRATOS theme but would love to get your stock taskbar WIFI meter icon. How would this be possible? Would it be an easy fix to create an update zip just with that change? I have no idea how to do it..
Further modding...
I have a further question...
Has anyone here tried to use UOT Kitchen to do any modding? I tried to get a few things changed but the only thing I could successfully mod was the battery icon styly. Everything else I try to do, upon reboot, its not modded.
Among other things id like to add transparency to the taskbar pulldown (like the old Overcome 1.x Froyo that was sooooooo nice and that is gone from KRATOS) as well changing the Notification Power Buttons and taskbar icons to stock Gingerbread.. but nothing, upon flash and reboot, nothing has changed. I'm frustrated.
has anyone successfully used this? Thanks in advance for any input

[MMS Theme][CM9-AOKP-CM10]Mixer Transparent SMS/MMS with Animation [11/17/12]

Well one of the things I hate most is the ugly white in the MMS.apk..Of all the silly options like weather in pulldown etc thats included in CM9/AOKP I was hoping we could at least get a black background option but I guess its more important to see what temp it is outside or to toggle your swagger on/off.
So if you're tired of the ugly white MMS.apk thats clearly neglected then I have the mod for you. This is a transparent modded MMS.apk that is build off travp624's new Mms.apk which combines the best of cm9 and AOKP.
I hope you enjoy this..Just flash the zip in recovery or manually push the apk.
Thanks Section
killabyte at Rootzwiki for his guide because without it I wouldn't have been able to do it.
travp624 at rootzwiki for his new MMS base to use..He did a great job of combinging the best options of cm9 and AOKP.

My skill hasnt quite reached that level but I would hopefully love to make black/trans background as options in settings.
sounds great I´m waiting
Thank u!
Sweet! You are the man.
Unfortunately, I'm on a Skyrocket and the most recent AOKP build at the moment is b37. Figured I would try it anyways and neither pushing it manually or flashing the zip would work. I'm guessing there will be an update for my ROM here very shortly and I will try again.
btw, do you happen to know why it is that no one seems to be able to make the dialer or contacts transparent on CM9/AOKP? I've been trying to figure out how do to this for awhile and it seems like the only mention of this that I come across is in your Mixer ICS thread about how it's not possible yet. Do you happen to know what the issue is by any chance?
Okay, I'm on a b38 build of AOKP and this app is still refusing to install. Any ideas why that might be?
This is the ROM I'm currently on:

Hey, nice job.
I just tried to instal/push, but it gets black background, instead of nice themed.
But I need to ask if you can modify that app, to enable inserting new lines in an SMS?

It is now an option in the settings menu for the app in CM9. It's under "soft keyboard type."
I made an hdpi version of this based on the new CM9 Mms.apk but I'll wait until MrDSL gives the okay to post it or let him post it.
Is this compatible for DXLP9? because i install it thru root explorer and my stock sms is gone.

I just installed this on the latest CM9 and it works and looks great! It looks a LOT better than the stock CM9 one. It's just a shame the vibration pattern option is missing nice work though.

next version will have that option back..hopefully tonight.
Great Work !
Maybe possible some variants like 20% transparent only or stock line partitions instead of bubbles but in subtle dark form (grey-blue ics style) ...
Would love to have those ... even if it means donating
Another edit I recommend is to move the bubble arrow (pointing to the avatar) from bottom to top ... reason being for large messages or bubbles the arrow move down (away from avatar) and doesnt really give that feel ... if on top, they will always point to the avatar irrespective of message size !!
thanks MrDSL for this messaging transparent. i have been use your mixer theme too, downloaded it from playstore... nice theme also.! :good:
