[Theme] MonoChrome 1.0 [ADP1/RC30]

Hey all.
For a while now I've been tinkering around with icons and wallpapers and stuff for Android and the G1/Dream, but I've never put it all together to make a theme of my own.. so I thought I'd change that. I'm calling this theme MonoChrome 1.0, and it is currently ADP1 and RC30 compatible.
Have an ADP1 or RC30 and wanna try the theme out? You'll find the download links and instructions near the bottom of this post.
** UPDATE 01/19/2009: All the default system icons added, wallpaper/dock tweaked, changed a few transparency settings. New screenshots below. **

Thoughts, ideas, dirty offers..? Let me have it.
Oh, and credits goes out to brandenk and his Kspec theme from which I borrowed parts of the theme.

Looks great I think. But on the second picture the "dock" looks a little to white to me.

The Market icon, you mean? Yeah, I agree, the droid needs to be a few shades darker. I'll fix that later on tonight, or tomorrow.
Oh and thanks for the input, it's very valuable because you tend to stare yourself blind on your own theme.

No the market icon looks alright. I was talking about that white shade behind the icons at the bottom of the screen. I think it is a little to white. It looks perfect in the top picture but for some reason in the bottom it looks to white. I am not sure why since it is the same picture. You might not need to do anything to it. It just pulls my eyes off the icons into the negative space of the background.

Ah, now I get it. I could try to make the "dock" slightly darker. I'll try that, it's like a two minute job, tops.
**edit**
How does this look? I decreased the luminance and added a bit more texture instead.

the darker "dock" looks a lot better imo. btw great looking theme. i was never too fond of all the other themes so this might be my first theme i install. also, not sure if you would be willing to or if anyone else agrees, since the theme is dark i think colored icons with the same black background you have now would look awesome.

The darker dock does look better, I'll stick with that one. As for your icon request, I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Can you elaborate a bit?

Ah, I see. Well that's pretty nice actually, though bright colors are not for me; I tend to prefer the desaturated look. However, as soon as I release this theme people are free, encouraged even, to modify and improve on it as they see fit.

looks amazing, can't wait for this

OP updated with new screenshots. Icons added, graphics tweaked.

Looking good! And I love seeing you guys use my theme as a building block, it really is an honor.
I owe my thanks to Stericson for helping me create my first theme and letting me use his theme as a building block for mine.

Great. This is the best theme I've seen yet.

Download links and instructions added to the first post of the thread, for those of you wanting to try it out. Compatible with ADP1 only as of now.

That's a good question. I am not sure, but I figure I will have to transfer all the custom png's from my ADP1 theme to the correct RC30 apk's. I might do that tomorrow if I feel up to it.

Awesome
I love it great work i hope you continue. thanks

i'll test this for RC30 and i'll let you know it goes
edit: so far it's working perfectly!
the only thing i've noticed is the notifications pane background isn't transparent like in the screenshots, but i can live with that
also, can you upload the background you used in the screenshots please? the theme didn't come with it.

Oh, sweet! I did the port last night when I was so tired I didn't know what I was doing, so it's nice to hear it's working on RC30 too. Thanks for trying it out.

Good to hear! I might come knocking on your door in a few days then

I will happily test this theme when it is ready (or almost) ready.

Sadly I don't think this can be done the right way. I was able to do the same thing with the status bar but it was a placebo effect. You'll be stuck with the same wallpaper. If anyone is willing to prove me wrong I'll be happy for it, as I got lots of ideas I would like to try but stopped due to this hurdle. Good luck in getting this to work.
P.S. the clock looks absolutely awesome.

sure ill take a crack at customizing this theme further.... send me a .zip to [email protected]

Unfortunately you are absolutely correct. I'll just have to go for a sort of a dimmed status bar that'll look transparent but really isn't. Sigh. Why do you torment us like this, Android developers?
The clock does look good, and at least with that one we don't have to fake the transparency effect

I might do a bunch of status bars with different colors; one whiteish, one black, one red, one blue, one brown, etc. That way at least you could get the color of the status bar to decently match any wallpaper you might use. Of course that also means you would have to re-flash the phone every time you changed the wallpaper to something with a different general color.
Hum, I wonder, would it be possible to make a special update.zip containing only the framework apk? I mean, everything else ought to be left intact then, right? An install would be very speedy, just seconds, when all that is needed is an update of the framework. No apps, launcher etc to be reinstalled.
Thoughts?

You certainly can, the first themeing I did was replacing just the clock that way.

Yeah, I've done it with individual apps that way too, but never with the framework apk that is in a different folder than the apps for some reason. I thought it might be different with the framework because of that, but it really should not be. Good to know it's doable though, thanks for confirming!

Pretty cool idea, does this mean it wont show your service? wifi service, battery level etc? I wasn't sure if that was just a mockup you made in photoshop or it will really be that blank
I like the transparent grayscale idea though. looks promising!

Oh, all status bar icons and such will be there once it's done. Though preferably they will be redesigned to fit the glossy theme better than the default ones.

If you can realize this theme like the concept you showed, it will be a most impressive theme. Even the concept is absolutely beautiful.

If we can figure out how to get rid of the black bar at the top when we make transparent status bars this theme would be able to take advatage of it

O.k i have never tried the transparent bar but i think there is two one in drawable an drawable-land the one in drawable-land is black did you try making both of theme clear? Then again there is a lot of stuff thats in the .xml that might be stopping the process. I would ask the .xml doctor to see if thats the case.

I never tried and haven't asked about it. After the announcement of a new update I decided to hold off on any themes

Yeah I know I think ill hold of on Code_Name_Ninja until then.

I've got two on the burner waiting to be moved to update files and ideas for others, it's just so time consuming lol

Green TheiGn! [v0.99b] for UnNamed v2.0.1 [ITS HERE!]

Green_TheiGn v0.99b​
from the bowels of the ICS fad, in the absence of the green love, there were some folks BLUE in the face with the SMURFDROID race! (yeah i'm copyrighting that one)
nothing out of the ordinary, unless you want to call ordinary 'blue'
there's a number of elements that didnt get themed properly but it's working and causes no problems that i've seen.
this is made using UnNamed ROM 2.0.1 apk's. you know the drill. you flash it, you trash it. whatever happens is your responsibility, not my liability. NANDROID!
1. wipe cache
2. wipe dalvik
3. go to Mounts and storage
4. mount /system
5. mount /data
6. flash
7. has fun
i exclusively made this for personal use (via UOT) but couldnt just keep it to myself. not taking requests, absolutely no promise of updates hence the smartass version number, though i will be trying to get other parts of the theme to apply properly.
if you're as hungry for green as i am, you really dont have any other options right now besides what you make yourself lol
what's included?
-CRT off animation
-dotted green circle battery icon, gradient to red.
-green download bar
-75% transparent black pulldown (to resemble StarBurst)
-green handle on pulldown (to resemble StarBurst)
-green WiFi*
-green 4g*
-green 3g*
-green 1x*
-green overscroll
-green scrollbar
-green load circle [to resemble StarBurst]
-green volume bars with gradient dark red instead of grey
-green text in status bar**
-LOADS of green icons (but not all) (to resemble StarBurst)
-maybe i forgot something
*only when background data is ON, and signal icons may go wild (due to incomplete theme, author of the icons was lazy-ish)
**time is still white
Changes:
v0.99b
[!]it was actually A LOT more than the load circle that didnt apply!
~load circle to resemble StarBurst
+remember those "LOADS" of green icons? NOW they're applied
v0.99a
-forgot to apply new load circle, STAY TUNED!
+LOADS of green icons (but not all) from StarBurst rom (manually applied)
+green text now works in the status bar for everything BUT the time
v0b
+green load circle now works (hopefully getting a better / different one soon)
~greener volume bar
~slightly less transparent pulldown background (5% change)
+green text in status bar (not working)
v0a

ME TOOO! It's ridiculous! =[[
I love green sooooo much

You know there is native screen shot.... Push and hold the home button then press the power button right after..

can anybody post screenshotsssss

I'd like to see some screens before I give this a shot. I do however like green (atleast on my phones) Anyway we can get rid of the CRT off stuff though? Like maybe give us an option to not have it with this theme?

someone else may upload screenshots, sure, i can put those in the OP
and sorry CRT off is here to stay. i very specifically went out of my way to grab the framework-res out of the add-on to use in making this.

If you are comfortable editing your framework-res.apk search for &roid he has a post with a tutorial to add the crt mod, it is literally a one word change. do the reverse and you're back to the stock screen off animation.

^ what he said
because if someone were to flash ~anything~ that is designed to disable it, it would remove some of the theme with it, unless the file being flashed came from this theme.

OOPS!
oops, my bad...sorry. And this will be my first spanking as a noob Thanks for being easy on me.

big update is here! i think you will find it looking very close to starburst!
small update sometime in the next 2-4 days to take it a step greener.

This thread has been out for over a day now and we still can't get a pick of theme in the OP, seriously?
I am always in favor of great themes but please post a pic to show the users what it looks like. You obviously are posting it here because you want others to use it, but a pic speaks a thousand words and you saying it is green only says 1.

hmm.. I'll tell you who, anyone that wants green on a rom released in the past 40 days.
go ahead you two. be my guest. I've already offered to put provided screenies in the op.
like it or don't, i truly do not care. i don't see the point when you know the rom is TW (by default) and you can get a pretty good idea of where the beef is if you just read
even if you were to just read #14
i'm not part of a team and don't owe my soul to anyone. i could just stop sharing.... that cool?

It isn't that hard to press 2 buttons and do this...
Otherwise do expect people to keep asking this... it'll take more time for people to wipe, flash and reboot than for you to simply show your theme. It could be light green dark green lime green and people just want to see... don't make this complicated. Happy Holidays!

Here they are. Battery was low so you can't tell it's green but the battery icon is green on the lockscreen. Yes, it contains the buggy CRT off animation but a fix has yet to be found anyways.

Obviously, it works with ICS. That's why it's called ICS RED. I used it on an odexed ROM but it should also work on deodexed because it just replaces images in apk files.

Cool, red, those tabs your on about mate are in TWFramaework.. You can use any of my neon red theme if you want, i can upload the old one for you
Cheers Rixsta
EDIT, I can see some of the pngs aren't patched properly either, like the wifi/blue tooth sliders ..
Needs some more work doing to it but its a good start mate

The red looks a little bright and a bit much don't you think?

Congratulations on your first theme. 5* for effort.
It's nice to see people take the plunge and get their feet wet... Hopefully more people will follow your lead.
Also thanks for the credits and you know where I am if you need owt?

Can I use this theme on Resurrection Remix ICS v9.6?.

Yes you can! I did it yesterday. Although the calculator stayed black for some reason oO.
There are some icons that looks a bit weird like for example the camera icon or the market icon, but hey it's your first theme and I'm staying with it =D. Maybe tone down the intensity of the color a little bit xD

Will this work on aokp rom?

Thanks for all your help. You're a real credit to the themeing community. I would love a copy of the old theme. It's what inspired me. I didn't know anything about .9.png's. Hopefully, I'll be able to figure out how to do them better.

You're right in some instances. I like it though sometimes. It really pops against the black background. I'm not an expert graphics editor so for the moment it will be like this but I'll make some changes in the future versions.

Yes you can! I did it yesterday. Although the calculator stayed black for some reason oO.
There are some icons that looks a bit weird like for example the camera icon or the market icon, but hey it's your first theme and I'm staying with it =D. Maybe tone down the intensity of the color a little bit xD

If you look in the log created by the universal flasher you can see if it says that there was an issue with changing the calculator file. I know what you mean about the icons. My graphics editing skills are still developing. I'll try and sort them out soon. thanks for the support.

I don't know. It depends on if they've changed the names of graphics files in the apk's. There will be an issue because there is no twframework in an AOKP ROM, AFAIK

Then stick with them and enjoy!!!!!

Version 1.2 is LIVE!!!!!
Version 1.2 is now available with proper red status bar icons.

do NOT use on LPQ
If you use this theme on LPQ you will have awful results. An LPQ version will be available shortly.

deodexed or odexed lpq ?

Should work on both. I do all of my testing on stock odexed because I want the theme to be immediately useable on new ROMS. The battery MOD for previous versions didn't work on LPQ so I needed to wait for a while.

tried v1.3 on lpq.
the battery icons went missing.
is the stat_battery_XXX.xml ok?

Mod/Theme 4.67 ICS-ish WIP, Early Stages, Help

Hi there, I would like to show you guys some of the work I've been doing in an attempt to make a theme for the 4.67 OTA. I'm currently using Nitrous 1.4.4 but the changes should work on any 4.67 base rom. As the title says I'm still in the very early stages, but I've hit a few roadblocks that I need to figure out before I go any further.
As of right now I have fully themed the status bar, and notification pull down via SystemUI, and 1% step circle battery mod thanks to the UOT Kitchen. I've moved into some of the other apks but I'm not ready to show my work just yet. I should state that my general direction for this project is a ICS-ish theme but I'm not striving to fool anyone here. I really loved the color scheme and the clean lines that ICS introduced and I'd like to bring that to us Sense Users (the rounded bubble style of sense just feels very... dated.)
Ok, here we go. BTW the divider lines are the same light blue color, but for some reason they are washed out on these screenshots, it looks so much better on the phone.

Here's my home screen, you like?
Quick settings tab, so far, so good.
Now, the problems. Most obviously my ongoing notifications all have black text. I was successfully able to change the font color for everything else after decompiling the SystemUI.apk except for ongoing notifications. Is this font color hidden in one of the xmls in the systemUI, or is it located elsewhere? For the notifications and quick settings I was able to change the font colors for all of those with just the colors.xml yet the ongoing notifications remain black and unreadable.
Next issue is the the background image for some of the icons. If found what looked exactly like this in SystemUI, just made it transparent but the icon background remains. Must be located somewhere else, or I just need to look again.
Then there is the tabs at the bottom, for starters the bg image on those is not the final product, I'm still experimenting with that one. However, first I would like to be able to 1: make a text smaller, I'm thinking 2 sizes. 2: Make it not bold.
Thoughts? Suggestions Comments? Questions? All are welcome but please be gentle, I'd love to hear what you guys think.

Would love to get this, hope you get the help you need.

Those icon bg/s are in the systemui.apk called status_bar_icons_tile.png the font style is designated in the status_bar_tracking.xml you can change the txt style if you want the actual font is the designated system font...

This would look good if they made it to 3.0 or 3.5 sense roms

Oh yeah not really feeling your topbar either so heres a good ics gradient for you...
Thought you might be able to use this to make your own pattern in phtosohop! Enjoy

Looks good. Which sense is this for? 1.0 or 2.1
I'm that stoner works at circle k

Thanks for you help Pneuma1985, I had the correct .png for the background image, I just forgot to replace it in my SystemUI.apk. Also thanks for that image, a little more refined then the simple black and blue diagonal I had before.
I'm glad you guys like what you see, I haven't had any time this past week to make more progress, but I'm hoping to get some done tonight and this weekend. Thanks for the support, I was a little nervous posting this since I haven't done anything before but I feel a little better now.
Anyone have any ideas how to change the font color of ongoing notifications from black to white?

There are a few very good guides on how to invert the drop down. If I find the link I'll post it for you. The theme looks cool so far, I kind of miss my Evo and making themes for it. It was so much easier then on my Evo 3D. Oh I have an ics theme for sense 1.0 around here if you want feel free to take any png's from it and if you have any questions you can pm me and I'll help you out if I know what your trying to do.

Thanks, I'll be in touch then. Is Photoshop a must? Will Gimp work? There's just no way I can afford Photoshop for a hobby. Thanks again.
EDIT: Well on first attempt the layers are not visible in Gimp for Windows, however I have a legacy version of Fireworks that seems to be able to work with those stencils. I guess I'm in luck, because this version of Fireworks is really old, Macromedia Fireworks 3... not CS3, just 3 - Circa 2000. I knew there was a reason I have that still.

Well I can not post you a link here but if you contact me I may be able to help you with photoshop...
