There are already a number of total Sense UI ports, if you want the whole shebang.
If you're already running CM6.1 (as your thread title suggests), then you can manually set a black status bar in the CyanogenMod Settings (just go to the normal phone settings menu and it's in there). You can adjust the color to pretty much anything you want - I did some experimenting with CM6 on my Nexus One trying to match the status bar to various backgrounds - it's do-able, but you have to tinker with a bunch of different settings, applying the same hex color code to each one. Kind of a hassle.
CM6.1 also lets you import an XML file to change the colors, which you could build on your computer and then apply. Might be easier.

Basically, I've been using AuraxTSense for a long time now, and once Neo started to implement the Transparent Theme, so I've been sticking with older versions just because I'm not happy with the Transparent Theme. I've now bit the bullet and updated to the latest version, but now there's something I want.
Android Stock has some nice icons, and I'm really not keen on the HTC Notification Bar Icons, I want the icons from stock (like Neo has done in the past, and continues to do) but I have no idea how to do it. I've opened up the framework-res.apk with winzip, browsed in there, found different images etc in there, but I don't know which ones to change.
I hope someone understands what I'm saying!

I know this probably seems like a stupid question, but how can I find themes that are compatible with my current set-up?
I spent a couple of nights trying to apply various themes without realising that:
- The theme has to be specific to my ROM (in this case, the final Froyo-based MIUI-au)
- I won't be able to get MetaMorph to work because Desires have /system locked down.
Honestly all I want is a nice dark theme that doesn't have dark-grey-on-black text, and the glow battery indicator. I can apply this theme which seems to work ok bar the unreadable dialog text, but I can't seem to get the battery mod to work through Theme-Manager, and can't find how to pull my current systemui.apk out so I can drop the battery bits in and replace it.
I'm assuming this is because the file structure is different in gingerbread?
I'm completely lost at this point, so any help whatsoever would be insanely appreciated.
*EDIT* Can I use the kitchen, by any chance?

I was about to suggest that.

Another good way is to use CM7 based theme that has Theme Chooser built in.
Third way is to use GO Launcher, which has a lot of customizable themes (although you need to pay for it)
Cheers... so how do I get the files required for upload?
I think it is easier to click on "Kitchen's list" and select the ROM you are using.
Hi,
I am looking for a hint how to change the color of the bar icons in my CM7.2? The icons for WLAN, Battery and that stuff comes in a disgusting turquois style, I hate that. I would like to have the green color back like in the old version! How to do?
BTW: I use Launcher PRO, and not the AWD launcher. I tried it with AWD launcher and themes, but this only affects the "front", but not the system in the main bar on top of the screen. So I do NOT want to check themes or something, I am satisfied with it like it is, except color.
Thanks! ;-)
In app draver should be theme chooser, select system there.

Did you read my posting!?
I do NOT (!!!!!) want another theme!
I am satisfied with this one, the standard from installing.
I just want to change the main color of the CM System, (used in the battery icon, the WLAN-Icon and other stuff, right on the right top of the phone for example) from turquois to the green and old one.
You can certainly change the colour by editing framework stuff. But I would like to inform you that it is not easy but not impossible.
You will need to use adb and stuff. Sorry I don't remember the exact details/step.
Plus be warned if done incorrectly it can semi-brick your phone. I will insist its better to look for other CM7 themes for theme chooser. The are hundreds of them.

You dont have to install another theme, it should be in the themechooser already named System, but CM7 defaults to their own Cyanbread theme.
You could use UOT kitchen too.

I feel like someone should say this... You do realize you're running CYANogenMod, right?
Just kidding. Variety is the spice of life. Hopefully one of these guys will be able to show you an easy way to accomplish this.
I am not sure if this is in the right spot but it said Q&A so thinking its a good place to start. I am looking to find out if I can change the status bar icons to be colors. I amd running [JB:CM10:HYBRID][OFFICIAL]ParanoidAndroid 2.55 for T989[18 Nov 2012] (Love it btw) so I guess the best way to word this is I use go sms pro for txting and the icon that comes up when I get a txt is a very nice noticable green color and I know I have a txt in a quick glance, I also have the facebook app and when I get a notice from facebook its a white and so are my mail and all the other icons so it is hard tell the diffrents between them. so I was wonding if there was a way to change this or if there is a mod for it. if anyone needs more info I am happy to post it. Thank you
If you would like to modify some of the notification bar icons you would have to modify some images in the system framework of your phone which would be difficult if it's your first time.
The easier way to change them, is that since you're using a CM10 ROM you can try out some CM10 Themes from the Play Store. Click here to view all of the available themes.
All the themes will help you change the overall look of your phone, that includes the notification icons. You will just need to apply the themes with the Theme Chooser application. Cheers!
Greetings everyone,
I am currently using a Sense 7 HTC Desire 820, and I want to ask a bit questions on the quick settings management and system lockscreen here today.
I got this phone half a year ago, since then, I have wished to replace the quick settings icons in the pulldown menu and system lockscreen into the one used by AOSP rom or Cyanogenmod. I have tested using different Xposed modules to perform the task but still they all failed to do so. So now I am wondering if there are anyways for me to force change the icons or the layout, for example and I guess by changing some icons and values in the SystemUI.apk or framework-res.apk, to the one I desired. Or are there any zip or application I can install onto my device so to perform the task? Does anyone got any ideas here or have experienced the above situation as me too?

i'd like to do this too. i'd like help on getting gravitybox quicksettings to work, overriding the device's default one. i also want to change the navigation bar icons so that they are all of the same look & size.
when i changed my dpi to 260, my navigation buttons became larger and i can't reduce their size. if i reduce the height of the navbar through gravitybox, the menu ley alone remains too large. see my screenshots. i changed dpi to 290 and the navbar is looking better now. but, even though i set font size as small, my fonts are bigger than i prefer.
please click this link for files i think are relevant to the issue under reference: http://www31.zippyshare.com/v/xw2JtFOG/file.html. thanks a lot in advance for any help/advice/links. let me know if any more info/files are needed.
