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
I love how cookie ht 1.8.5 allows us to simply place a wallpaper on the home tab in high quality, and the ability to put one wallpaper for all other sense tabs, and the mini lock screen. I'd like to push this ability one more step!!!
I would like someone to give me the ability to make a custom wallpaper just for the calendar tab.. or just behind the music tab
one for the music tab.... i have set the landscape, but it's the same as other landscape screens. i'd totally love custom for each screen
I noticed DrSrF BUUFfet custom look has made a weather tab with other wallpapers in the other tabs (Rawrscary/Degake) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=683771 using a robot wallpaper. I so want this ability on my hd2!!! Some one please help me with this task?!!
I can't be the only person wanting to rectify this feature for the HD2. I use CHT 1.8.5 simply for the fact of three custom wallpapers, but i totally could see even customizing a few other tabs. one wallpaper across 11 tabs look terrible in my opinion.
with the research i've done in the past few days, I have found a link with xperia x1 user that has configured 13 wallpapers in sense 2.5! I tried to install, but there was a lack in directions to how i may customize these features on tabs.
here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508799&page=12
Please speak up, just support the idea, and maybe a few devs will look into making this possible!!!
Good idea! support it!

Well, In that thread it's just a CAB that they have for that theme. Not really sure exactly if there is some other way to get it changed. If there is, I do not know. Maybe drop a line in the Cookie thread and see if he can build something into the next version of his CHT mod... that would be awesome
As far as HOW - THEY - did it... no clue. I want to know myself. If you find out, PM me please
Hi all. I have found lots of good mods on this site and finally took the time to consolidate the ones I like into a single package. I also went through and colorized a lot of the notification bar icons. The file is too big to uplaod here, so I have provided a Rapidshare link. The following is included in the file:
1. Smooth Sense Icons
2. Additional colorized icons
3. 50% transparent notification panel
Please let me know what you think and/or if you like this. I have attached a couple of screen shots for your viewing pleasure.

I saw these first in the Virtuous thread as I am running 3.1 and was previously running incredible theme with older versions of virtuous and waiting for someone to do some themeing with newer framework. Are you using newer framework? Not that I'm sure it matters as this is not as extensive as the incredible theme in which it replaced lots of recently updated system apps.
But I do have a question for you. Any way to get rid of the location Icon which I have become use to not seeing in my bar? All though it is attractive.
And a couple of the icons like the headphones, headphones w/mic and tty are jumbled up just as they always have been in smooth sense. I had broght this to jeric's attention long before but was not worth correcting I guess.
Great work buddy!

No, it does not use the new framework. As I said, it is a something I put together with mods I use and like that are already out there. I am no expert on mods. I colorized the icons so it would look nicer on the phone. I can look into getting rid of the location icon, but if you want me to do this, please PM me and I will look into it. Thanks for the kind words.
Hi All,
Im new here and I recently divorced iPhone! I have an HTC HD2 and its probably the BEST ive ever had! Ive seen a lot of posts for themes, etc, however, I prefer the "boring" default homescreen I have (snapshot attached). Ive installed cht and I think it was GREAT, but I didnt like the way my phone "blinked" everytime i woke it up. In any case, i prefer the default screen and my question is, Is it possible to have a bit of transparency on my phone WITHOUT installing 3rd party apps like cht and so on? (Just a simple cab file that adds the TRANSPARENT look to my homescreen and other screens). This will be great! I love playing with custom backgrounds that I make with photoshop, so some transparency will be perfect!
Thanks in advance guys, and keep up the GREAT work!
Regards,
Yaz

Since you use Sense are tons of Manila files that devs have modified that have made certain items transparent. You'll have to hunt for those. What you should really do is load a custom ROM, preferably one with CHT baked in, and go from there. I guarantee your phone won't "blink".
Wow,, THIS SITE IS THE BEST!!!
When I had the iPhone and registered on one of the forums, I used to submit posts, and not get a response for AT LEAST 2 DAYS!! To get a response within a couple of hours is SUPERB!!
Anyway (sorry about that! - got a bit excited) About your recommendation for loading a custom ROM, I guess you saw my specs so you are confident that I wont have any issues. However, I dont know WHAT TO DO, HOW TO DO IT, WHAT I NEED, etc. Therefore, I would be grateful if you would kindly "link" me to the right direction, and I will take it from there. If I do face any issues, would it be OK to pm you?
Please let me know!
Cheers again!
If you want a rom that has both CHT and has transparency have a look at energys rom, link here:
Just scroll down and find the version you want! There are a few, you need to have hslpl installed and then just flash his rom!
If you don't want to flash a new rom and just make a few changes to the stock rom here are a few links to a ton of mods/tweaks for ya(transparency included)..

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.

You just got me hooked on MIUI for a bit...is this in the Kobalt theme?

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
