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.

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

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

This theme is called minimalDroid or mDroid for short.
It's very minimal but there is A LOT of customization.
I only changed a few icons, the ones I use most frequently, and they match the rest of the icons as well.
In the preview the notification text is black, I fixed that and its now white.
There are two wallpapers included with the theme, the one in the preview and a orangey vector thing. They can both be found in the wallpaper gallery.
I'd really like feedback because this is a new style of work for me.

-- Update Filler --
I forgot to revert the hands of my clock to the ones I used originally so there's no preview of it and ill have to update it later, for now I need sleep. (4am here in NYC)
Wow! I love anime. Great job.
Looks really good bro i like this themes look.
This is looking good, I'd like to see the clock in your previews as well.
Fixed the clock and the corrupted update.zip problem, what do you guys think?
This theme is awesome would be great to develop it a little bit more just the basic icons but yea i love it
Theres a lot more then what you see in the previews. Almost the entire framework is re-themed.
Looks really good but when I update my phone with the theme It only goes as far as The G1 Logo and then freezes. Please fix as I would love to use your theme

this makes me want to ask my question even more...hehe..
so for the BUUF theme I had to put jf rc33 LITE on my phone to use it, because this same error happened (hanging on the g1 logo)
so this needs to be asked! Is this made for jf rc33, or the LITE version...? which would be a likely reason as to why it hangs on G1 boot screen for some..
same here, RC33, JF1.42 Light Version, apps on SD.
After installing i get stuck at the Bootscreen
*please fix this, i like your theme*

that clears things up, this is for regular (non-lite) jf rc33..
I could always revert to the regular...it is only a small hassle to revert then install this theme..but a hassle none the less...!
^-^' (I know, whine whine...)
No, it's not for any specific version of RC33. The only difference between lite and normal is that the sounds have been removed. I highly reccomend you have at least 15mb of onboard storage before installing. Because of the heavy customization the file is 12.3mb. I will make a fix when I get home. Thanks for your patience and I apologize for any inconvenience.

gotcha, I know that the buuf I installed had to be for lite or it crashed your phone..but I tried this on lite and reg now..and still hangs on g1 boot... hmmm..I have 23 onboard...
luckily, I have 3 friends at work here with g1's, and can hassle them to let me use theirs to mount quickly..^^
If you look in my more vintage less war thread I posted a list of commands to move your ringtones,notifications and alarms to your S.D if you using RC33 Reg this should work.
@crys |s
The theme is running to large p.m and ill show you how to bring the size of your update.zip down even with the heavy mods.
I've fixed it, I think..., download from the link in the OP or from here;
mycri.me/crysis//g1%20dev/mDroid/update.zip
Also, what do you think of my clock?

cant get it to work with regular jf33...attempting with lite now..
Some advice on getting it to work on rc33 regular version... compress your .png files to decrease the zip size.
If it's still giving you problems it might be on your end, I just had a friend test it and worked fine. I'll try compressing in a bit.
okay so here it is, my official release of this theme. it's still in progress but i figured i'd get it out there so people can leave me feedback and see what they want added/changed. The whole thing is based around a hardcore type of theme but I had no idea where to go with it. It's pretty plain for now but it's a nice look. The notification bar is awesome IMO. If there are any icons or things taken from other themes that I still havent updated or changed to make my own, this is a thankyou to all the other themer's out there.
You can't see from the preview but it has a cassette tape as the VM notification.
It should work with anyone who has a JF RC33 mod (I have JF 1.42 rc33). Don't blame me if you brick your phone.
the battery icon is the black flag logo for an FYI (currently in the picture it's reading 80%)

Looks good so far. If your going for the whole music/mixtape theme I would say change the icons to cassette tapes or CDs with the program name written on there. That would look cool.
nice clean and simple...

that's not a bad idea at all. I was trying to figure out ways for different icons but it's tough when you are trying to like match icons with certain themes..
i'll fool around with some ideas based around the whole cassette tape/cd thing. i'll see how it looks on the phone and such.
for the dialer I had records for the numbers and when you clicked or selected a number it would be a broken record but it wasn't looking right when it was setup so i went with standard buttons for the dialer instead.
where did you get the icons? would be nice to be able to use alternate apps.. I use K9SMS and StarContact instead of Messaging and Contacts
I like the black flag logo. Nice work

i made the icons pretty much. either they were done completely by me or i took an image i found off google and then stripped it and or modified it to be my own and work more with this theme.

The messaging icon is the stock icon without the smiley face and instead of using the white already on the stock icon i used a beige color more towards the colors used in the theme.
i use the stock messaging and contacts, you can do whatever you like to make this theme better fit you. this is how my phone looks. as for using alternate apps, sure, use whatever the hell you want.. you can change any app icon you want using bettercut (or you could manually change it in the apk)
anyone using this theme yet?

I am. I like it. I mainly downloaded it for the dialer screen and the couple of icons that are nice here (browser, battery, vm). I realize that you're still working on it, and look forward to other changes.

This is what I did with glosssuite(Spoon/Stericson) and AERO(ultra spikey)...sence I like both themes.
For the one's that like the first soloremix...is now call darkblue cause some ppl was having problem with the soloremix...so I just redid it.
The lightblue is still call newlighter soloremix1
DL link: http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=a63560095e467606d2db6fb9a8902bda
P.S. These themes does not have the boot screen or the lock screen like the 2 themes.
Thx Soloxp
PLS send me the DL link !
Spoon/Stericson did Glossuite, not me jawash22....
O sry about that...I'll edit it. Thx
Thanks for the DL Link !
But what are in the files ?
3 themes in one
solo
solo remix ?
wich one is the theme on the screenshots ?
OMG I love what you did with those to great themes!!!
I think I will have a new favorite when i get done trying out the competition themes!!!!
change dial pad and yes change satus bar also
dial pad looks weirdd and status bar just doesnt fit the theme
and change the menu popup look make it like glosssuite with that grey look
Learn to use
Ok, the newlighter soloremix is up. Just go to the same site.
Thx
is this jf1.42 rc33? or rc33 lite?
cant get it to work hangs on G1 bootscreen..
love the images and want to try it out
ps i did fresh rc33 jf1.42 tryin the lite now
It's the jf1.42 rc33. Which one did you try so I can fix it.
Thx
I love this theme...
But, I reverted back to MoonDust.
Please change the setting buttons. The text is black and the background is transparent - so, any time the page/app/background is dark I can't read the setting button text!
Otherwise, I LOVE IT! Fix those setting buttons and I would constantly switch between this theme and MoonDust! My head would spin!
setting buttons
i agree i think it would look really good with blue buttons or blue text lol other then that and the 3g icon changing randomly i love it
Yea, I have rc33 lite and tried to use it and had to install another theme cuz i couldnt get past the g1 screen... some of the icons stuck after that though though lol
yes it works with RC33 lite, luv the theme... but the transparent is to light on menu.. great job though
thanks for the DL link. nice theme. but hard to see the clock time when outside. need to clear to see
The new one is up.
Thanks...glad you all like it. If there anything you guys want me to do to it...just let me know.
Cool! Thanks for the update!
I love the darker blue color of the pics at the bottom of your first post in the thread (that was what I had installed on my phone and it matched some backgrounds I had PERFECTLY!)
I noticed the pics at the top have a lighter blue color! Does the your latest update use the lighter color or the darker color? I really liked the darker color. (I know you can't please everyone and you should mainly be concerned about making the theme for yourself). Please let us know. I MIGHT still use it with the lighter color.
But, it would be nice for those of us for which it would make a difference if we knew which color blue was included in the latest update.
BTW! - I REALLY like the oval buttons on the dialer - AWESOME!
The latest update still have the darker blue wallpaper. The lighter one is just some wallpapers I have on the phone. All to gether
I have 3 driff blue wallpaper...I will try to get them up in min.
I use better cut for some of the icons.
O...I now using a wallpaper that give you the floating icons look...neon-mushrooms and neon-chess.
Sorry, I wasn't clear when I made the above post.
It appears from the pictures on the first post that there are two different versions with different shades of blue in the notification bar. See the two attached pics.
Does the latest version have the light blue notification bar (on the left) or the dark blue one (on the right)?
Hi guys,
I have now used Manups xTheme due to the theme being dark and having the new lock screen. Thanks to all involved to make the theme and roms possible.
Hope manup doesn't mind!

Ghostbusters theme and wallpaper.
Feel free to browse my site while your getting the theme, it's all I ask for in return (even if you'll all probably hate it!).
What I have added:
Red ghostbusters battery - this goes from red (full) to very light red (empty) no bormal green to red as I felt the ghostbusters logo lost its charm green
Slimer for BT - Green is on, blue is active
A ghost trap for wifi. Beam moves up and down based on signal.
Proton pack for the launcher, with ghostbusters symbol
Ghostbusters logo for screen lock. Red is correct, and purple is incorrect.
I will update as and when I get time. Hope u all enjoy.
Black text is unreadable. Other than that great job!
Thanks, i was aware of the font issue just didn't have time to look into or even know how easy it was to change! I'll be taking another look tomorrow night.
Looks good so far will be checking in l8r to see how this is shaping up. Nicely donE!

You could probably just grab one of the theme that has the white clock and use that.
here are all the files you will need for the white text.
drop classes.dex in services.jar and the other 3 in framework-res.apk/res/layout
thanks for this, I'll have to take a look later.
What's the general thought on the green to red ghostbusters battery?
Do you think it should go red to another colour like purple?
I'm not sure if the ghostbusters logo looks good green!
It's looking good... Rome wasn't built in one day. Take your time edit at your own pase, and most important, HAVE FUN with it... If you need help, let me know....

It's weather widget. In the options choose download skin, the skin is called glass clock.
well i dl this and it looks good thank you!
but i don't have the battery you have.. i thought it was included....
Not sure what you mean. If you mean the battery on the left, that's an app from the market.
Yea your right... after i sent the message i was thinking that..
as for the battery u have now in the notification bar i think either the logo should disappear as the % goes down cause right now i'm at 80% and i couldn't tell until i went to Settings<About Phone<Status
I was thinking may you can try to have something like the plsma or whatever was shot out of the proton pack and as the % goes down the line will go down..
hope that makes sense to you.....
or have the ghost disappear1
The ghost does disappear!
It gets pailer until it's nearly all white.
I don't Know if it's me but i like to see a drastic change especially for the battery.....
but i do like the theme.
if no one else has this problem that i'll have to deal with it!
I dig this theme, thanks.
No prob at all man looks pretty cool whats the small slimer up there I like it.
