Hey guys, Im sure some of you have seen some of the things I have worked on thus far. Some of them are pretty nice, some are meh.. I admit.. HAHA.. Im still learning!!
Anyway, I'm looking to take on my first 'big' project for EG22 and will port to EH06/EH17 and EC05 after.
I am wanting to create a pretty much FULL theme thats not really based on anything else.
Some things I would like to concentrate on for the sake of battery life is a darker theme.. something simple, crisp and subtle, nothing to flashy or out there.
Some of the things I am looking to theme are:
/system/app
framework-res.apk
DialerTabActivity.apk
Phone.apk
twframework-res.apk (possibly, i believe thats just for TouchWiz launcher, isn't it? I haven't used TW since i found out about launcher Pro)
MMS.apk (Black/XXX themed)
Swype.apk (Black/XXX themed)
Gingerbread Keyboard (Black/XXX themed)
Deskclock.apk
/data/app (things to theme more or include)
Black Gmail (black/XXX themed)
Black Facebook (black/XXX themed)
Black Market
Black Mini Dolphin
Black XDA
Black ScreenShot
I would also like to do a comprehensive matching icon pack (have to look into it more, last time i tried i got some FC's) I'm thinking very simple icons that are mostly GrayScale with some time of glow (to match the theme color). Widget Icons will have some transparency to them also.
Some of my ideas for a theme are along the lines of a Black Steel or something with Blacks and Grey(Steel) colors with some time of subtle dark red/blue/green mixed in.
something with roughly this look
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
my goal would be to make something that looks nice and classy, but saves on battery a bit while the display is active.
EG22? What's that?
Derp.
Why no EH17? Or for that matter EC05?
Tw-framework has nothing to do with TWlauncher. Its the part of the framework that controls the pulldown toggles, the pulldown background some menu icons, etc. Also, the 4G icon is in framework-res.apk/Res/drawable-hdpi-en. They usually get overlooked lol

LOL ... he already mentions he will port to EH17 and EC05 once he has this one done
You should check out the steel theme that was for 2.2 it was lighter than this but same kinda feel. I'm horrible with links so I don't have one for ya but its in the theme directory in the stickies.

Are you going to port to ei22. If so a gta theme would be cool.

This Theme was made by Octoberriot for RC30 LINK.
I liked it so much, now i ported it to RC33
In this theme, are custom made clock widget, status bar, pull down bar and Fonts.
For now there are no application icons in the theme.
note: if you install this, the fonts are going to be there permanently unless you hard reset, or flash one of JFs updates.
If you dont like the font included, or are going to a new theme, you can Download the default Fonts here:

Update:
I add some app icons and compressed the pngĀ“s to save space:

Thank you to Kron2, jdwme, necromancerr, Dave Da illest 1, Geo411m, Octoberriot
ummmm, how is that anything like deep black?
Octoberriot called it like this.
Originally the icons, the down slider and the wallpaper are from deep black.
but because of this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=480116
and because i have no experience with themes (was my first try) i dont copy the icons to RC33
Maybe someone can finish the Theme ?
I love it! Icons are overrated, and I am more than happy with just he font change. When you start customizing the icons too much I think the rest of your download app icons look way out of place. This theme gives a good balance of stock and customization.
Is there anyway to get a normal font in the browser??
Good Job!
I really like the font, but when I installed it onto my phone I thought it was a bit to overwhelming. It was just to much on your face. Great Job though I must say. You don't have to hard reset though. All you have to do is get the original fonts from a theme and drag into the folder. It will replace the comic sans and then just update your phone!
NVM, i keep refreshed
no lie dude... the PERFECT THEME for me lol
id been looking for a theme that didnt change the notification bar too much, and u just hit the spot bro.. BEAUTIFUL!
THANK YOU
Anyone know if this theme (Modified Deep Black Theme RC33) is compatible with Cyanogen 4.2.15.1?

Dude, this thread was in 2009, RC33 was the platform before cupcake, which was before donut, which is what 4.2.15.1 is based on, with bits of eclair. That said, this theme is incredibly outdated, and quite frankly, don't know how you find it appealing compared to all the ones that are compatible with your ROM.
I wanna just use that font, how do I do that?
This was my first idea for a theme. Which I'm making, in most part, for my girlfriend who I like to call Peach. The idea came from a signature picture I made years ago for her for a forum and I thought it would be a pleasant surprise to bring it back in the theme. I used that very siggy as the wallpaper and most of the colors picked out using the eye dropper.
This is very much so a work in progress. I'm looking for opinions and feedback. It's my first theme. The wallpaper I will need to change. The siggy was alot smaller than I remembered and I had to stretch it to fit. May recreate it. The clock and the tab at the bottom are not of my own work. They are from the Glossy Minimalism theme. (the theme I currently use.) I used its update.zip when I was figuring out where things were and creating. I do plan to change them both.
Edit: Peches is now ready for download but still incomplete as far as I'm concerned. I cant figure out why I cant get the notification bar (during/after pull down) to change colors. Clock still needs to be changed as well as menu tab. I also have plans to change the notifications, Edge and 3G, Battery and Signal icons. Enjoy and please give me feed back. If you think I should include anything let me know.

Created (all) Battery status icons and USB notification..
1.01:
New background
Changed Battery and USB icon color to match theme better
New Font
1.02:
Completed Icons for Stock Apps
Custom Download(ing) Icon
Several minor color changes throughout the system
Tested - Published
good start sir. something i would use. not too sure about font, but still worth using. wish there was an icon pack for apps commonly downloaded like chomp and my backup to match the rest of the stock apps.
I've been meaning to change my font for a while. Thanks for the reminder.
Looks good I like the story behind it.
The left side of the notification bar blinds me. Maybe instead of a white > peach gradient use a lighter peach to a darker peach? I just can't look at the status bars left side. The icons are nice and simple. Don't really have much else to say.
3/5 Average

I'm feeling that theme good job..
when is it available for download?
Availablity?
Its still very much unfinished. So far I've made very few changes and the icons shown are the only ones I've done so far. I should have the rest of the stock app icons done by tonight along with a few other things. I'll make it available by tomorrow at the latest but again, its still unfinished as far as I'm concerened.
Btw, she loves it ^ ^
Dude, the font rawks.
EDIT: 50 views and no replies? Come on guys, at least tell me if you don't like it so I can stop wasting my time...
Hey guys, since my last theme was crap I decided to make a new, better one. Please leave feedback and tell me if I should continue with this theme or not - Thanks! If you would like any custom app icons made Feel free to ask! And I'll try my best. Thank you all!
Theme so far;

Yeah these are just tiles for DV but I'll eventually start making icons if people like this theme .
I've not seen a complete all black theme for the s2 up till now...try working on the lines of making it uniformly black across the interface...probably something on the lines of Nitroz Black Theme...otherwise your theme looks nice
Cheers!
Please give it a try.. like this black white style.. when you will upload it ?!
I like it too. Keep up!

Sorry mate, I'm trying to downgrade my phone atm, I've uninstalled all my launchers, If someone else could do this it would be much appreciated! If not I'll do it tomorrow.
Thanks! Beautiful icons for us who love black/white themes! Should fit perfectly to my homescreen!! Keep it up
-edit- The market icon have a white rectangle line around it which for example the music icon doesnt have, doesnt look very good on a black wallpaper for example. Hope you can fix this, really like the icons! And a games one would be nice to have aswell.
I like the first font and overall feel, but the others.. not so. sorry.
Its just my opinion but maybe you could design the icons to match the first fonts.
Since I've set all my screens with transparent widgets I wanted to have a transparent dialer/contact list as well.
Here are few shots from my homescreens:

}
I wanted badly for my dialer to look similar to my home screens and this what I came up with:
So far I was able to make all buttons transparent for in call status of the phone but I cant find where the black background is defined.
Here are screenshots of new phone apk and link is below if someone would like to use it till I make it transparent:
May be someone will enjoy this transparency as well so here are links to modified Contacts.apk and Phone.apk.

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?6vxah8zagg8avy3 (Phone.apk)
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?binzd778jmd1i9g (New Phone.apk)
For those of you who likes ICS theme and would like to have a transparent dialer
And links
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?5wrlllwmyz2adsm ICS Contacs.apk
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?shgn7xrr71s7v7j ICS Phone.apk
I'm kinda new to this phone so I didn't make flashable zip because I didn't wanna break anything.
You can adb push this apps to you phone in recovery:
adb push Contacts.apk /system/app/Contacts.apk
or you can copy it to your sd card and move it to /system/app/ using root explorer. If you choose second method you would need to reboot the phone for apps to work.
If any one wanna step in and make a flashable zip that would be nice and I can learn how to by looking into it.
Thanks for posting this up, I'm sure it'll get lots of hits!...do the calling and incoming call screens look transparent as well or have they been left alone? And if its been modified, could you post screenies of those as well? TIA!
Now working to make in call screen and dialer transparent as well.
Did it for my previous phone and hopfully can do it for this one as well.
Very nice, looking forward to additional transparent goodies, pushing now
Btw, is there any way we can pick our own wallpaper or does it already display our homescreen paper?

Thanks a Lot for all the support towards the work.
The status bar will only change in case of a MIUI Rom , and would never change in Stock ROM.

This is not serious it was me who had misunderstood : P
No issues Buddy. Other than the Status bar , you can use it freely like any other Launcher.
Hello people. I tried it on my FoxHound ROM. But I don't really like it so I uninstall it. Everything returns fine but for the lock screen I can't get back to my original one and thus screwing my lock screen. How now?
