[MOD][CM9][System background][Dialer Background][MOD][SGS2]

This is my first attempt at a MOD for a ROM. It is for CM9 and is an abstract background for the system menus. It wont work if you use a theme from the theme chooser in CM9
DO A NANDROID BACKUP FIRST!!
I have only tested it on SGS2 CM9 Nightly 706 so far.
I am going to look at changing the background for the dialer too and also will include other abstract backgrounds when I become a bit more au fait with how to do it.
EDIT: Added dialer background
EDIT: Added another
Thanks to Gabowinter for his tutorial

Re: looking for Cobalt blue theme for Wicked Sensations
If its baked into the rom, theres no way to (easily) extract it because it was created by individually modifying each app
Check the rom zip and if its in an app, then its apk will be in the "system/app" folder of the zip or in the "data/app" folder
If it is there, grab it and install on the rom you're on

Re: looking for Cobalt blue theme for Wicked Sensations
Are you on the Sprint version, or one of the ports? I don't know why they posted in the port threads to ask me about getting the blue theme for it. It's the actual Rom and the other 2 are the themes. And if you're on the Sprint version I do have the mod to remove brightness slider in my updater. If it didn't work on the ports then you will need to ask kalisjr about making it work. I just made the Sprint version and I'm not sure what all he's done to make it work for the other carriers. I'll try to get in contact with kalisjr and see why the mod isn't working with those.

I will get it together for you. I figure the reason that it is causing fc, is because he probably hasn't updated to my new SystemUI and Settings for the clock mod. So when you flash the morph for my new SystemUI, it's causing the older version that he is probably using to fc. That would be my guess.

[REQ] MB4 Mods - Transparent Widgets - Ink - Themes

I just flashed MB4 and it seems my transparent Music Player zip, I was using on earlier ROMs doesn't work anymore. Also I wondering; has anybody has taken a crack at Google Keep's widget yet? And last but not least, I use Precious Metals Price Widget and was hoping somebody could tell me (or do it for me. please!) how to get full transparency for it's background. Thanks in advance, any and all help is greatly appreciated!
Any other MB4 related mods are welcome too, like pen-free ink on lock screen, compatible themes etc.
1. The transparent Music Widget from the Alexander Theme thread works!
2. I found a transparent Google Keep in a thread in the S3 forums. The widget is transparent but the actual notes still use the built in colors.
3. Samsung Keyboard Mods By akapaul26 are now compatible with MB4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158377

Yes, I am sure they will be. In the meantime I would like to find ones which are already compatible. Surely lots of people are trying various mods and it would be pretty convenient if they could share their results in one place.

Nope, flashed the transparent zip, added the widget and it works fine. Maybe try clearing the app data or caches. You can also make sure the file permissions are correct, or just fix permissions from recovery.

[Theme] [Port/Hybrid] BLACKED OUT! (Updated 8/08)

So Ive been trying to get as close to a fully blacked out theme as possible and I think Ive finally gathered a nice setup put together from several sources(majority from jet black theme by Rixsta). Theres a few minor accents that still need to be themed and I'll work on those soon. as always make sure you have a backup just in case.
Screenshots Here:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/bq1j0qo52y8jfj7/UXvb7_heS3
First flash this to get these apps blacked out: Phone, MyFiles, Mms, Contacts, Calendar, Calculator
http://db.tt/wL7yPBui
Then Flash this for the main theme:
http://db.tt/JrJrcOt3
For all other apps, Download Team Blackouts App in the playstore. Awesome work by them. There's also themed Google keyboards, and the onyx one looks great with this as well.
Themed Phone doesnt have call recording enabled BUT you can enable it by flashing the following options without messing up the theme:
Recording added to call menu
http://db.tt/AqiAIQNy
White Call menu button that I themed to match.
http://db.tt/z3oPu4GQ
Red Call recording button added
http://db.tt/am3vVN8g
White Call Recording button that I themed to match.
http://db.tt/0a25bkWr
Thanks goes to jrkruse fo his work on these. His original post is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2344674
tip: you might have to press the call recording button several times to get it working at first.
These mods include his volume boosting tweaks which over ride the ones in your system so you can flash these to go back to stock volumes, or go back to the tweaked out version provided in wicked 5.1 by default.
Stock Volume

OP fixed. Download and reflash the first apps package. Fixed the calendar and added a script to remove the old "garbage"
also in the second zip I added the clock package, samsung keyboard, and multiwindow apps to be themed as well.

Worked like a charm! I have a question though. Any way to theme the calendar widget like the app? Everything else is beautiful, just perfect for what I want.
