[THEME] upcoming theme ALIEN RC33 compatible

this is a theme that i am working on right now, and my first theme on android, still trying to decide what icons to use, using several from a variety of artists on deviant art, this isn't done yet but i figure if i can keep working as i am on it and don't get snagged on anything then it should be up soon. let me know if you know of any good icons to go with the theme, i'm liking black glossy images and and a little orange and green. the wallpaper is the alienware head and i can even post my splash screen if anyone would like a splash screen to go with the theme. i'm up fo r suggestions, right now i'm about half done with the system folder and gonna start framework-res.apk most likely mid day tomorrow pending how busy i am.
let me know what you think, keep in mind that i am currently just editing the FadetoBlue theme found HERE and that 90% of what i am doing was inspired by damnitpud, and made possible by stericson and jesusfreke. anything blue you see in these images will most likely be changed before release, unless i decide it looks good. let me know what you think. and if anyone knows what images to edit to change the glowing android i would love to make him a white alienhead.
open for any suggestions especially if you know of or have some icons to go with this.
here's the splashscreen i'm using too

EDIT: since the theme contest is underway, i might save this theme until it is "perfect" i want to enter the contest and i don't wanna release it before it is too soon, i will keep everyone posted on the whereabouts and possibly invite a few members for beta testing as i know i can't possibly find all the bugs on my two phones during daily usage

Looks great Tuba King let me know when you are done and I will put it up on my Theme website and host it if you want.

cool, thanks. i can upload the zip file here, and i have a 4shared account, but when i get it to what i have in mind i'll let you know and you can mirror it on your site.

my suggestion would be to replace the android head on add menu tab with somethign that flows better. I like the background image, Maybe mod that a bit to fit down there.

That's already on my list, hoping also to do some xml edits cause the theme I'm using as the backbone to this one has some edits like the keygaurd screen says fadetoblue and I don't want my androidware theme to have some other name on it. At work now so I can't work on my theme but hopefully it'll look half as good on the phone as it does in my head

Looks like a FadeToBlue with a different wallpaper to me

currently yes, that is because, as menttioned twice, i have used fade to blue as a back bone and am just editing the images to go with my theme idea, i have damnitpud's permission and have changed most of the icons for apps so far and will be working on things like status bar and such that all go in the framework-res.apk tomorrow

read above post

hey i think that it look like a very nice start.. i too got a theme and starting to develope it from there to my liking... I think that if you were to change the clock to be all black and gray instead of the black fade to blue... good start...

oops my bad...keep it up..

updated: i decided to go back to the original theme and edit it since i can't manage to edit the color on some of damnitpuds images, and so this should make it a little easier, i edited the status bar thanks to stericson and made it black, unfortunately it makes the clock invisible, doesn't bother me all that much, but it might bug some of you. i am maybe 1/4 of the way through the framework-res.apk which is where 90% of the images that need to be edited are. hope to have this ready to be submitted to the theme contest soon so i can get it to you guys, hope you like where it's at so far

[Theme] Abc Lost Final [RC33, JF 1.42] (Update 22.02.09)

Hi !
Here is my first try on a Theme. Its based on the popular ABC TV Show LOST.
Thank you to Kron2, jdwme, necromancerr, Dave Da illest 1, Geo411m, Octoberriot, topdnbass
I changed every stock system icon, the unlock pattern, the dialer, Statusbar, Launcher, Animated Bootscreen, Font and some other things.
Here is my Final (and last) Version of the Theme:

It's good for a first! I like it even though I've never watched the show lol... but the lock pattern almost scared me cuz I thought they were spiders and I have a fear of tose, lol!

The white bar is a 9png fille in launcher, check drawable land and drawable poet, I like the theme, huge fan of the show so looking forward to trying it out

love it all except the top bar...

I love the idea for a lost theme. My only suggestions would be to use the top half of the Dharma logo to replace the application tab at the bottom of the screen and to make the top bar look more beat up. Great job!

Nice job, keep up the good work.
A nice fresh idea, and a nice dialer.

My first [THEME]: ABC LOST [RC33]
Thank you for the new ideas
here is the new Version:
Statusbar is same Metal like the Counter in the Hatch
Bottombar is Dharma Caduceus Station logo
Download

That looks really awesome! I would really love to use your fonts, how would i go about doing that?

Looks very nice. Not quite my style but very, very nice.

Do you have an update with the stock fonts?

I am a huge fan of lost .good start on your theme love the lock pattern and dialer .I think the icons could use some touch up's like I think the camera icon would look good for the you tube icon and I like the music icon but it needs to be touched up.

is this Jf1.42 compatible?

i don't watch lost but DAMN this is a nice looking theme, i wanna try it but i'm too busy perfecting my theme, :-( i guess when my theme in progress is finished i'll have to come back to this one. nicely done

Dark Hero 4.0.4 09/03 Stericson's New Updates To the Lockscreen Also Changed Some Things In It Graphic Wise DO NOT WIPE BEFORE OR AFTER FLASHING AND IF YOU HAVE AN ANALOG CLOCK ON YOUR HOMESCREEN REMOVE FROM HOMESCREEN BEFORE FLASHING

good job on this... but just as a heads up, you should probably add a screen shot of the clock it does come with or mention in the op that the "hero" style clock seen can be downloaded from the market. a lot of people are going to wonder why its not in the theme by default...

There you go clock and music widget it was already in the theme i just didnt think to take a screenshot of it

cool beans... itll saves you the headache of people asking, where can i get that clock widget? and trust me it will come in a flurry like on other threads... have you notice any loss in functionality with this theme on this rom? im going to flash it anyways but i wanted to know if you noticed any yet....

Very cool about to download and check it out. Are the button highlights green or orange? (I guess I'll find out, but other's might want to know.)

no i rebuilt it specifically for this rom because its the one i use

button highlights are actually grey and dark grey

Do you know what is the name of "hero" style clock on the market?

You really shouldn't be putting that "extra" file in there, as it is a paid app. That is against policy to do this.

Need help with Theme

I'm working on my first theme but I'm having issues figuring out why I cant change some notifications to match the status bar. Any help would be highly appreciated.

I have no idea, but you can try to just strip the background away and leave it transparent an make sure your custom icons are Centered correctly. I haven't had the problem you're having but in theory the transparent method might work.

this
if you just make the icon bg's transparent then they will still look fine if you change your notibar color (unless u change it to white )
OR
you could open up one of the icons that does match the notibar and copy/paste that gradient to the one you need to fix
also, I don't know if this would create a problem but I always make sure to save icons and such as "save for web and mobile devices" in photoshop

I did try to copy onto a gradient icon that did work. For some reason it still came out wrong as you see on the image.
"save for web and mobile devices" would this help with image size? Currently they are coming out nearly triple of stock. example stock icon=1.31kb modded icon=3.97. I'm sure stripping the gradient will help but is still huge compared to stock.

i use cs5 fireworks for editing all pngs and no change for editing .9's. like neb said you can either find each add'l file and redo filter repeatedly through all the bg's or you can just make them transparent like neb said. He knows what hes talking about.....i know darch needs an evo too neb, but what about yours?

I'm loving it!!!
This thing is frakin amazing!!

Ok so I took out everything except for what I needed. No gradient nothing else left but the white notification icon. Then exported it with "save for web & devices" (this helped on file size thanks) Now what its doing is, icon appears correctly when its slide down into position, but then the icon stock background color gets added on (wrong gradient). Its so quick but I can see it happening.
On the plus side some did change like all battery icons and wifi, but the rest seem to be doing what I explained above very frustrating. Ive attached one of the icon's that I'm working on if anybody whats to help me out.
Rom Fresh 0.3 if that helps any.

Custom Red/Black Go SMS Pro Theme

Been wanting this for a while but none came out so I made my own. Came out pretty good I think. All red/black. Even the textbox where u type text messages is blacked out and the letters are white. Just customize further yourself to make it even MORE red and black and it'll look sick.
Here it is! - new as of 9/24 - and WORKING (at least for me) - View attachment REDblack_Minimal_Theme_GO_SMS_v1.5-signed.apk
EDIT: Sorry. Forgot to include install instructions previously. Here they are:
1. Make sure you do NOT have the Go SMS Pule Theme installed on your phone. If you do, remove it. (My theme uses the Pule theme as a foundation, and I'm really not sure how to edit the name lol.)
2. Install my theme.
3. Go into Go SMS and press Menu > Theme.
4. Click on the theme that says "GOSMS Theme Pule".
5. A pop-up will display with the choices of Apply, Update, or Rate. CLICK APPLY!!! DO NOT click Update. NEVER Update this theme, as it will undo the changes I've made to it.
6. My theme should now be applied.
To make it look even better, make sure you go into Appearance Settings on the Menu>Settings screen and change all the backgrounds to black and all the text to red/white.
ALSO, the theme actually came out a little lighter than I thought, looking a bit pink-ish. I might re-do it and darken the reds. I'll post if I do. Hope the instructions help.

Still not working
Hi there. I followed your instructions and removed the Go Pule and once agian tried to install your theme but I am still getting a message stating apk did not install. I went through Root Explorer to try to install the Theme once I removed the old pule theme. Is there some other way or do you know why your APK will not install. Thank you

Any screenshots of this?

i think i posted an unsigned version previously by accident. sorry. updated to a definitely signed and working one. follow same instruction por favor.
screen shot added. not much imagination involved lol...pretty much all black with red and white.
1 thing thats pissing me off badly is that i can't change the color of the send button in chat screens to white. its currently a light purple. so if anyone can change just this for me...i did most of the work here. its not too noticeable tho so still def test this theme out if u like black red white themes.
edit: just noticed, after u press send it changes from purple to white...so not too serious. still kinda detracts something. came out better this time tho. previous version i posted was too light. almot pink. looked redder on my comp. but this one is RED.

Dude..Dude...that is an awesome theme!!!! Major props for this. I currently have my phone on dark carnival theme and this theme for Go SMS only enhances my phone. You did a great job. Thanks lots.
