Discontinued until further notice and Do Not Edit or share Without my permission

I'm not a big fan of the pink, but I think the rest of the theme looks great!

stay strong bro
I think u should keep it up

great theme
This is cool, forget about the haters. This is an art. You don't do it for people you do it for you. Then you are you own critic. With that said...lol... I would love to see a star war, or duke university, or oakland raiders, or university of miami or naruto or bleach theme.. lol

Yo bro... you got lost of talent and you do this for the sheer satisfaction of accomplishment. Your unselfishness doesn't ever go unnoticed... you'll get yrs in time bro... Keep it up

thanks,
i havent made a final decision yet, i love making themes, just been feeling weird lately... it will probly pass though just need some support to keep me going... thanks to all who posted love already

like your themes, pay no attention to my vote. clicked the wrong one. keep it up.

HELL TO THE NO! 2 words repeated "HI HATER, HI HATER" i bet u made more themes then anyone.. and when ur on top the hater will try to make u fall.. F*%$ THEM!

I am baffled that anyone would complain when an artist spends time and effort to make themes for our phones. WTF??? Anyway, Randum, your themes are great! Please keep em coming.

truth be told you are a necessary force on these boards...you do niche themes as well as run of the mill themes, not too many people too interested in niche themes, and while yours may not be the most complete themes (personally, id love if you made this one as complete as possible minus the pink) they are the most readily available.
keep it up.

keep up the good work, I havent been on these boards of late but every time i am.....I always see something new from you. They may not be as complete as others but they definitely satisfy many. I for one like them very much 8).

I would like to add my voice in supporting your efforts.
I only wish I had the time to devote to making themes/developing for the G1 and look to people like you to make my phone so much more wonderful than it could be if you weren't here on this forum contributing!!!!
Who the Fu*! cares if some others don't like your themes. I may not like ALL of your themes. But, you make many that I DO like. But, whether I like them or not I appreciate the time and effort you put into making them.
Some of the themes entered into the competition weren't anything I would use on a daily basis... But, that doesn't mean that they weren't works of art. I appreciated every single one of them.
I really like many of the themes that you have made and look forward to seeing others in the future.
As for this theme... My wife loves it! She is stuck on her Blackberry (she has small hands and the G1 is just not comfortable for her) and wishes she could put it on her BB.
Glad you decided to stay!!!!

Dont Quit Randum you have the most and some of the best themes for the android OS. You also account for about 50% of the themes on Android Evolve!

yeah dont stop making themes . im still on your intense red and my girl is going to this one when i stop being lazy.Anyway keep them coming. F the haters im sure many themers got some ideas from your stuff.
PS Can you add a little more to intense i keep coming back to it even after the com.Also i like how you dont like changing the app icons.Thats my Style too.

A very nice theme indeed, it is my favourite theme for the RC9 ones out there. A very good vibrant theme! Consider it as a competative theme would like to see some more of your work PLEASE!? especially when they convert so well onto the RC9 ver (UK for me).
Regards.

I love Vekktor
Hi I love your themes and specially this one Vekktor I have lots of Vector wallpapers and when I saw this theme I was excited to match the with it. Please please keep it up your excellent work. Its different and very authentic.

[THEME] Robotech - Macross JFv1.5 Hv1.5r3

Built this theme upon request by a friend who recently bought a G1 from me. Being a huge fan myself I had a lot of fun w/ this one =) Features JrBourque's red VK. If anyone wants a port, this can be done relatively easy so feel free to throw that out there if interested.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/mimfg25tzmj/Robotech_Hv1.5r3_A2SD.zip
Aight. Decided to make the switch this evening so I ported my latest theme over. Ended up ranting bout a bunch of stuff that came to my mind after the icons of this theme were criticized. Here is the link and screen shots to spare anyone not interested bout the rant lol. To give credit where credit is due, I compiled JrBourque's Red VK into this build. Anyone who need's a custom VK should hit him and Diaztradeinc up asap. Quality stuff fo sho.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/gmyyzgnyxa2/Robotech_JFv1.5.zip
Thus far, posting this las night (in Hv1.5 form) I've only gotten one post of criticism regarding the icons... but I don't really care. I'm open to constructive criticism within my means and MO, but I'm not here to please absolutely everyone. I enjoy making these things, have a zillion different ideas for themes that I'd like to see on my own phone and will continue to post them up as I make them, for whomever might be interested in them (no point in keeping them to myself).
This criticism over my icons put a lot on my mind today so I suppose I'll take the opportunity to put it out there. There seem to be 2 destinctive types of themes to me - Graphic driven themes and Subject driven themes. By graphic driven theme I mean those like Aero and Gloss that are based on no subject but built from scratch, open completely to unique artistic creation to no end. By subject driven themes, well, that's self explanatory (IE Mario, X-men, Punisher, Spider-Man, Gambit, Megaman, Robotech etc. etc. etc.).
Don't expect any of my themes to be graphic driven themes. Subject matter inspires me to build these themes, not graphic design, and I really don't see that changing anytime soon. I really only do this for the enjoyment of seeing my work and particular subjects come to fruition and don't have much interest in pushing my graphic art skills beyond where they currently are. I'd consider my graphic art skills intermediate at best. My skills are not nearly up to par w/ other designers on here. I'm far more inspired to see themes based on my favorite comic books and anime (among other potential mediums) come to fruition than I am to take the time to create unique and original designs. I'm in constant awe of what other members create and share w/ the community. I'm not in this for competition or comparison. I'll let peeps do their thang while I do mine. Jus in this for my own personal enjoyment and there's no point in keeping the fruits of my labors to myself if anyone else is ever interested in running it themselves.
To speak more directly regarding my feelings about icons representing the individual apps instead of the subject matter... in building a subject driven theme, I feel if the icons don't represent the subject in particular, they aren't nearly as interesting. I guess I think of it in the terms of what a Desktop theme would look like (because, Android really is a miniaturized desktop afterall). Even if I extracted a calculator (for example) from the source of the subject (like a calculator that appears in an episode of Robotech in this case), it wouldn't be recognizable as representation of that subject unless it were a character holding a friggin calculator or something. And if an icon like that was made you really wouldn't see the calculator once the image was scaled to the small size that the system icons are.
My work being criticized as though it should be similar to other themes in this regard bothered me enough that I guess I felt compelled to rant and explain my point of view, (and if you're readin this, naw man, I'm still not offended, jus put a lot on my mind). Anyways. This thing is long enough I suppose lol

OK... but don't you think you could make the icons at least sort of related to the apps?

If I wasn't at such a loss for source material I would have. I'm not kidding. About 80 or 90 google image search pages later I was still at square 2 where in previous endeavors id be at square 6.
Besides, I DO honestly strive for that (my settings icon in my Megaman theme being a good example of that, it was the start menu of MM2), however, I compare my work to that of a couple other cats on here and their icons aren't too particular to the individual apps either.
I agree. It would be REALLY sweet to be able to be that specific but the truth of the matter is I'm decent w/ Gimp (photoshop clone, much better), but I'm no ace by any means. There aren't enough pictures out there to do such a thing in the way id prefer. Calendar/calculator for example. Don't know if either ever appeared in a robotexh episode but if they did, even though it was taken from robotech it wouldn't feel in accordance w/ the theme cuz it wouldn't be familiar looking at all nor would it be destinctively related to the subject matter.
Sorry for the novel lol. You touched a softspot for me, not in a way that I'm offended at all, more like I WISH I COULD make the icons in stronger accordance w/ the individual apps but it's just not possible.
Id actually be curious to see someone else's attempt at such. Do you know of a charicter/show/whatever based theme that's been able to pull this off well? If so you should point me in that direction so I can scope it out

Man. Ain't no other Robotech fans up on here? Really? =) guess I stand alone. Or maybe no one is running H's 1.5 anymore now that he's released 6.0 =) I'm actually gonna update my phone to JFs 1.5 update so I think ill be porting it anyways and when I do ill post the port as well I guess.

Would be nice if you could make a proper Samurai Champloo, after seeing this I'm sure it will be great

Haha I just posted on the other one. Do you have to wipe for this? I haven't flashed a theme in a good while, also like i posted there is there any way that you can make a Samurai Champloo? After seeing this i would jump on your work of SC

Ha ha ha. FUNNY thing you mention that. I just decided this evening to start workin on a Cowboy Bebop theme. The robotech theme was on my list and when my friend bought a G1 from me and said "hey you should make a robotech theme" I took that as a sign. Now a dif friend is buyin a G1 from me on Sat and said "hey you should build a cowboy bebop theme" (which was also on my list =)) followed just a few hours later by "man a Samurai Champloo theme would be awesome too" lol. So I'm thinking at this point w/ 2 people already requesting both, both being on my list, that I can't make one w/ out doing the other ha ha. Once my Cowboy Bebop theme is done and released I'll def have to dive into Samurai Champloo as well ha ha.
Oh and, no wipe necessary. What build are you running? If you're runnin Haykuro's 1.5 jus flash it and it should update fine (in which case you'd want to grab the Hv1.5 theme on the other thread). Same w/ JF's too. =)

Ah perfect! Damn i wish i would have known this earlier to beat your friend and have you make the Samurai Champloo first but a man can wait I'm running JF1.51 ADP. So maybe you can work on it... whenever you're done a nice thank you will be heading your way

Yeah. there are some major complications regarding 1.51 US that I wasn't really wanting to get into. I'll prolly look into it further but ultimately the only real dif between 1.5 and 1.51 was MyFaves and Amazon for me so I decided against updateing. And from what I understand, flashing a theme built on 1.5 onto 1.51 US doesn't really work right =(. If someone figures out an easy way to extract the framework-res.apk I might jump on board. Otherwise I might actually look into 1.51 UK (which is also compatible w/ the JF1.5 themes that I'm constructing I do believe). I'm pretty sure that the only thing dif about US and UK is that the US f/w has My Faves, which isn't really a big deal since you can adjust your faves (if you even have any) using t mo's website.

heh, CbBb, my all-time favorite anime/show/whatever. I was thinking of one a while back, thought of making it real subtle, in-so-that only a fan would know it was anime/Cowboy Bebop. Heavy use of the opening credit style, pictures of the swordfish, profile silhouettes, etc etc etc.

Yeah it took me, literally HOURS to find a good element to use as the menu background, I ended up using a contour from the opening credits that actually worked pretty well =)

yeah man. I actually think you'll be in good shape then. Pretty sure the US build is the only one w/ that issue. If you flashed this robotech theme (or the Megaman one I ported for JF 1.5 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=515742 ) that'll tell ya whether this CbBb theme and the SC theme to follow will work or not =) using the same template to build these.

"ScrewPaw" Redux?

How many people would be interested in having this theme ported to latest versions of CM? Porting it shouldn't really be hard at all however I was thinking to keep everyone happy and people off our backs that I would maintain the layout of the theme but keep it inline with the CM roms I.E Cyanogize it a bit

i'm not a big fan of the screwpaw theme, but you know, i think any progress for the sake of android is good i think it should be updated

I would love it if you would update it to the latest Cyan build. I like the way the theme is but how would you Cyanogize it?

Most definitely interested.

i don't think so as for the fact it would kinda kill what the point was of the original one. Maybe do a different look though. There could only be one ScrewPaw IMO

I have it mostly ported over as-is for my g1 now but I kinda feel like doing something different with it. I like the layout and all but some of the graphics just doesn't quite feel right on the g1

Do it, and I like the name CyanPaw

Yep. Count me among the "ayes"

woo cant wait for this. ill get it on my cyanogen when its ready

i really love the theme how it is already.
the only think i hated was the version 3.9.7? with the stones as the background as the app drawer. it looked out of place.
the background of the app drawer before that was waaaay sexy. the dark picture with trees and the lovely scenery.
also, you should change the bootupscreen, it's already been suggested but this would be awesome haha.
android peeing on palm.

Yeah i'm in, been jumping back and forth from xrom to screwpalm. not really fond of the rocks in.9 tho, you could ditch that for sure.

please do.
ive been switching themes everyday and i cant find one i liked as much as screwpaw.

any update on the progress of developing this theme for us cyanogen users? =]

keep up good work
keep up the good work man. Don't listen to others saying don't make it. I am a big fan of it and can't wait till you get the latest version out.or do you have it out? if so can you please send it to me in private message or email.. thanx a lot. that would be much appreciated. Wish has a version out, but it's not the latest, so if you could work on the latest cynogen releases, that'd be awesome

Well the thread with the 4.02 theme has been removed, can anyone pm me the link to the rapidshare location? I have it in my history but I accidently cleared it...

http://miano.us/android
favorite the site if you'd like - I'll continue porting as the updates are made to the rom.

Developers interested in taking over porting of MIUI.

Hello all I'm sorry to inform u that I will no longer be developing for the evo. I will be upgrading to the HTC evo shift and yes as soon as its rooted miui will be booted on it and ill b right back here providing updates for the shift.
I will have an overlay setup on github before Friday for anyone that wants to pick up where I left off for the evo.
I will also be talking to mark about a proper replacement for mod/porter so if ya wanna take over fire off a comment n this thread and we may consider you

I saw this over in the MIUI forum and seeing as I have been back and forth with MIUI and Myns ROMS I decided that I would post this here for all developers to see in an attempt to have someone take over the porting and maintenance of MIUI. Original thread can be found here:
http://forums.miui-dev.com/showthread.php?1987-htc-evo-miui-overlay-and-my-departure

Lol I posted the same thing in the evos general forum. I'm hoping somebody picks this up BC miui is the shiznit.

upgrade to the shift lol that's a downgrade .. sucks cause miui was pretty good

Manup is going to be picking up some of it, saw his twitter this morning.

Yeah its a great rom. So different from everything else!

Completely agree man. The whole rom is just so unique compared to everything else available. The launcher that miui uses is hands down the best.

I own both and it does feel similar but at the same time its more of a fusion than a straight up copy. Definitely deserves to live on, better than have thousands of Sense ROMs that only differ in how ugly they are.

LOL... Well... I don't know. I like MIUI... And I like Sense... I just like things that are functional. Both of them are. I hope someone picks up MIUI development here because my most favorite thing to do is take aspects of all the different versions (Sense, MIUI, AOSP) est.. and blend them together to create the ROM I want for myself.

DARKEDGE THEME for SG2

So far the Darkedge Theme is the best dark/black theme...if some "good themers" could port it to our Galaxy S2...that would be just fantastic...i think we would not need other black themes ! Darkedge in my opinion is the best we could find in the android world, notice that the system is inverted, all writing is white on black background in all apps, notice also that all details have been "retouched", that why it looks like the perfect theme! this is for sure a hard work..but if "some" themers could work on it, it is for sure worth it ! by the way we would need also the authorization for the original maker, i could ask him to start !

more pics from Darkedge theme

Looks good, any developer going to port it??

really cool ..... I like it!

i have been in contact with the dev about the theme which is originally made for the droid, he told me that the theme will be re-arranged for android 2.3...the problem is that i dont know if it will compatible with our sg2...and another fact, is that he said it will be this year...but when exactly ?? so , a port now would be nice...

Afaik, Darkedge is a Droid exclusive. Dont think ive ever seen a full port to another device :/
Sent from my GT-I9100

what are you talking about ? it has already been ported to CM5 and htc Desire and Hero...and many others...

Oh this would definitely be my full time theme for the foreseeable future, if it ever gets ported XD

Damn that's a cool theme... Must be easy on the battery too, with the amoled screen...
I wish I had the skills to port it myself..

My bad Id seen someone try and port it to the Desire but gave up. Didnt realise there was a full port.
Sent from my GT-I9100

I ported parts of this to another device but the problem is that the theme has some heavy XML modifications which is not easy to do unless you got some mad skills.
Just port some graphics over shouldnt present much of a problem but you wont get the full 100% experience then

I'm aware that the XML are the most difficult part of it...we need help of a Dev maybe and not a themer ...porting a this theme is definitely worth it.

I can port it over but id need a dev on board to do the xml files..
It can be done though
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

Thanks for your support ..so let us find a dev for the XML part

Awesome theme, I'd love to see this on the GS2!

THAT would be great on the SGS II
Elegantm minimalistic and even more beautiful than the black theme I have on my HD2.
Hope it can be ported, that is my absolute favourite .........................

I too would love this and am willing to help test

Finally, if all this wasn’t enough for the Android community, Xeudoxus has been working overtime to port the DarkEdge theme to Koush’s CyanogenMod. DarkEdge for CM will also being made available publicly for the first time today. Do note, however, that CM’s version is still in an alpha stage, and not everything may look perfect, or work as smoothly as the ESE-81 version of DarkEdge.

Citation from Droid Forum ................
Seems if we get CM we also get Darkedge ...................

I'm waiting for the download version...

the CM they are talking about is CM5 i think...which has been already done a year ago, it is still a project for CM7...but if this theme come out, it will be sure ported at least to CM7.
