Fell inlove with gingerbread theme, I would love to have the same theme but with light blue/cyan themed icons, batt/signal/3g status icons/ and status toggle =]
If you have ADW launcher installed you can get the cyan theme that comes with the light blue icons.
This is what I have right now.
I was hoping for something that changes status icons + bat. Cwm3 + DK28 Ext4 Quantom1.7 compatable =]
Just would love to see something like this =]
Unzip the theme go into the framework.apk (you'll need to open it as an archive) and use a program like gimp to alter the colors for yourself. The battery and 3g/4g icons will be in the normal framework.apk the pulldown icons will be located in the tw-framework.apk. I you need help there's a lot of good guys on here that don't mind helping new themers (mysteryemotionz, dreamsforgotten, decalex, and thomaskull666 to name a few.) So give them a pm with any questions if you decide to take up the challenge.

See I made an inverted gingerbread theme. Easy peasy.

Yeah I've only got my phone right now and it doesn't look like the upload files function works in dolphin or the stock browser. so maybe later tonight if my power comes back on and I can use my computer.
did a little messing around and played around with "absolute android" and "launcher pro" and "power control plus", put together some pretty cool homescreens =]
been reading in the wiki as much as possible, to get to a point where i can do this on my own >.<
Take a look at some of the how-tos dreamsforgotten has put together. Very helpful.

I have veered away from the Tool theme, and made this just a straight Red and Black theme. The clock is the only thing left of the Tool aspect.
As always, this could possibly brick your phone, so it's not responsibility if you do, etc.
This has been updated to work with JFv1.41 and includes the multi-touch browser.
RC30 only. If someone wants to port it to RC8 and/or ADP1, go for it.
Link: http://www.mediafire.com/?x21yz49xzmq
Version 2: Updated for JFv1.41, and camera issue fixed.
Pics:
1. Main screen. Shows the clock, and pull tab.
2. Icons and highlighted pull tab.
3. Landscape, Google search, folder icon, and highlighted icon.
4. Music player colors.
5. Trash tab.
6. Curtain transparency and bottom.
7. The wallpaper I am using, in case someone wants it.
8. Another wallpaper that fits very well with this theme.
Questions, comments, bugs? Let me know.
I think the front cover image on the "Opiate" cd would make a pretty cool wallpaper.
cant wait! one of my favorite bands aswell. im still waiting for a metallica theme
looks good
Finally a nice red and black theme i cant wait for it
Love the TOOL idea, one of the greatest bands ever
Now this is a theme I can use.
New clock is okay but the one in the first pic is my favorite.
Keep it up!

Bump for release. 1-25-09 2:06AM Central time
And sorry wergeld, but I liked my new clock better. Much simpler, and easier on the eyes. Especially for someone who isn't a fan of Tool artwork.
Ha, no worries on the clock. I am going to get this!
Another idea to try: using the "Eye" as the menu tab.
Great job all around. 2 of my 2 thumbs up!

Is there a method posted for converting a theme from RC30 > ADP1
Please post a screenshot of your theme. ty

Sorry, but as the first post says, I have veered away from Tool, and made this just a Red/Black theme. A Tool theme in my mind, and will be made, just not quite yet.

I liked the pull tab as well, but as I said in the main post, I wanted to make a universal Red/Black theme. Also as I said, a completely Tool-centric theme is in the works. And I have a lot of homework to do tonight, but if I get the time, I'll make a quick change and replace the Lateralus pull tab and upload a version for that.

Thank you very much! And I'll still be awaiting that tool theme whenever you do finish it, keep up the great work!
For anyone that has downloaded this theme, please go download it again. I updated the file, because of a camera issue I just caught. This new one fixes it.
wont extract!!
Hey, ive been trying to get this theme, i can download it just fine, but when i try to extract the files it tells me it failed to extract ALL the apps and folders and says the path is invalid...all it ends up coming up with is the apps.file, framework.file, and the META-INF folder. Everything elses gets thrown out. Im running Windows Vista 32-bit and using win-rar to extract...i dont get it! ive downloaded several other themes and they all came out just fine...help!
It's just the way it's packed. If you extract the .apks directly, it works. But may I ask why you are extracting them anyway? If you want to flash it to your phone, you don't need to extract it. If you are going to modify my files, use the above method, but give me some credit if you use it in another theme
I know next to nothing about themes, but I am doing my best to make a grey/black theme for personal use by mixing and matching pieces from Erebos (using as base), frost, and Bionix while also mixing in black dialer and phone from Emotionless Beast.
The only thing I am not happy yet is the battery. I would like a grey honeycomb battery with %, or circle battery with % (for regular and charging). This needs to go on a black background. I was able to do a test run using the blue honeycomb battery in Midnight theme, so I am pretty sure I can copy the pngs from one zip to another, so the rest of the framework doesn't matter.
Does anyone know of a battery mod or rom that has this battery that I can use to copy the pngs?

You can just edit all the blue battery icons from honeycomb in photoshop and change them to gray.

Very true. Was just hoping to save the time of editing the ~200 images if somebody knew of a rom or theme that already had the grey circle or honeycomb battery (photo editing is not my strongest suit). Doesn't really matter where it's from, as this is just a personal use theme.
With all the themes out there, I had hoped there would be one with it already made that someone could point me to. Tried searching and came close a few times, but nothing just right.

Nope you can't get it by it self unless you modify the framework.apk or twframework.apk

to put a battery icon the whole framework has to be replaced so unless you matched the one in the zip to yours you are gonna get the whole package

I'm looking for an easy way to change the background color of the notification. I do NOT want to change any icons, notifications, fonts, pulldown menu or anything else. I downloaded a theme that I like other than the notification bar color which makes it difficult to read some icons. Also a focus on the easy way is perfered and I'm not into modification that requires me to edit .zip files.

While you are in there changing the color of the Notification Bar wanna change another thing while in there? The status bar is green, like when changing volume, loading web sites, downloading progress, ect..., and previously I had a theme that had those blue.

so you want dog gone blues to have a trans or black taskbar & to fix the progress bars to be blue again??? if thats all ill have that done in a couple hrs or less... i could do it faster but im in the middle of makin a requested theme
Yep, that's what I'm lookin for.
Thanks for doing that for me. I haven't gotten that far into MODing my Epic where I make changes or even start from scratch on making themes or other modifications. I got the Samsung Epic days after my son was born so to sit down on a PC and work on this kinda stuff is difficult. I will get into it more probably once the Epic Touch comes out as my son will be old enough to entertain himself while I do this kinda stuff myself.

unless the theme your using has it baked in then all i gotta do is pull the images from the 1 theme change em white & put em on the other theme, instead of completely re-theming the pd ani add on to what theme your on & all the above
both dont take that long changing the animation's images takes the longest i just need to kno where to start

Thanks, looks exactly like what I was asking for. Its greatly appreciated that you could do those changes, esp in such a short turn around time.
But... (of course there is always a but) some other things.
Can you get rid of that blue checkerboard pattern that you got rid of in the Notification Bar through out the entire Theme? Messing around with it I noticed that it has that pattern in the apps if you bring up the menu. Really just anywhere that checkerboard blue/black pattern is can just go away as it is annoying and ugly.
Another thing, when in the menu of the Browser and Calendar, if More is selected the background color is dark navy blue and the short cut font color is a real dark grey meaning you can not read it since they are so close in color. So far I have only noticed it in the Browser and Calendar app but guessin that its also elsewhere that I have not came across yet. Can you fix that? Just make it blue instead of navy blue or black or whatever you think would look good.
Last few things, just take out that Shutdown animation as I use the Helix Boot and Shutdown animations. Also remove the font that comes with it so it does not install a new one. Last remove the Calculator app as it has that ugly checkerboard blue/black pattern in it also. All these last things to remove are easy fixes for me to just install over them so not as big of deal but while in there modifying the .zip I thought I would ask.
Thats all I've got. I know its a lot but if ya get to it great, if not I understand, no hurry if you do.
Thanks again for doing what I asked for the first time, and so quickly, but we are all the same, we want our phones just the right way. Then after we get it there we either get sick of it or we jack something up and decided to start from scratch again. Its never ending...
Greenmuggy,
Another thing on a seperate subject. A while ago I made a post asking about this but no one was able to help me. I'm wondering about the Stock Calendar App, really its the Fascinate Stock Calendar App as I like the way it shows upcoming events without entering each date like the Epic Stock Calendar App, if there is a way to add "Saturday" to the First Day of Week setting. It has Sunday and Monday as current options but my actual work week starts on Saturday which is not an option. Just wondering if you had seen way to add this to the Fascinate Stock Calendar App. Its just another one of those minor annoyances that are out there.

damn your picky... lol kiddin. gimmie sum time to figure this out a lil more
just pm me with all the specifics
I'm using the Crystal theme for CM7 and It's perfect. Only thing I want to add is a battery % of somewhat of the same color. I know I can use the built in CM settings % but I first wanted to try to get an actual icon on there.
Things I've tried:
Speedometer gauge- all that did was reset the theme to stock, although the battery meter did work
Pulling .png's from another similarly colored theme- only ones I could find were TW themes and besides renaming over 100 files, there's no way to drag and drop them over to the CM theme.
Any other tips outside of editing xml files? Which I don't know how to do.
Edit, the UOT kitchen would have worked great if the theme had all 100 battery .png images. oh well.
Just swap out pngs with a theme you like then re-sign the apk. Legend-X is good and I swapped out Bonsai circles in it.

I don't even know how to sign an apk Trying to figure it out now.
Yea, I'm really not good with this stuff until I get it done 1 time. I can't figure it out. Oh well.
Grab Legend-x, or another theme with 100 battery images.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Yea I will. I think that's my only option if I want that color and a very thorough, heavily modified theme.
Google CM7 themes. There is a thread that pops up with 300 themes. You just click on each title to see a screenshot and how to download.

I have about 25 on my phone now. For some reason I like the crystal because it looks a little like the blue glass theme for our epics on 2.2 that I used forever ago. I'm going to use the legend-x though, I think.

Here, use this version and set it to default battery, not percent and you get the circle % mod. It will show as Legend-x in theme changer. Thanks to the Legend-x guy Kevin.
