I just released my first theme chooser apk to the market! Go get it while it's luke warm!
Inverted stock UI design. I go hard with Holo guidelines. Install this if you want the UI to be black, but don't want any silly icon changes and cheesy stuff. This is minimal and light.

Personally, I really like it and I like that its not bloated like other themes.
I found one of those cheesy/silly icons in the stock SMS app, is this made off of vicino's theme? I like this nice and dark.

I know, I just barely noticed myself. It replaced the SMS icon with the Chromium OS style one.

Not based on it at all. I have been using Vicino's Mms icon for forever now. It's not even Vicino's, it's a Google icon.
I have already received a few emails regarding the icon. I plan on replacing it with the stock icon in the next update--as well as a few minor tweaks.
If you have any suggestions, please feel free to let me know!

No problem i was only asking lol. I think if you remove the white lines in the settings it would look cleaner.

What I wanted to do was to make the lines in the notifications (ie quick reply and stuff when the notification is expanded) white, but I couldn't without changing ALL lines. I will see about making it less white, but I don't think I'll get rid of it completely. Sorry--I appreciate your idea though. I'll change this in the next update. Should be this weekend, Friday maybe.

Looks very nice mate, going to try now
EDIT: Only thing I think you could improve is keyboard, it seems to confusing all black.
You could maintain the keyboard background black and the keyboard keys with on/off switches color (grey or dark grey) :good:

I'm not sure I entirely understand what you mean with the keyboard. Do you have an example?
I do need to change the on/off switches. That's in the queue. I'll probably get to that this weekend.

I did the example: see the first screnshot :good:
Keys should be grey or dark grey at least, so we can differentiate one from another.
The On/Off switches are fine, don't mess with them. I only used them to show you the grey color/dark grey color you could use for keyboard keys.
Some Modders sometimes exagerate on black stuff and the result UI is to confusing, keep it simple, it's great mate :highfive:

I am themeing the on/off switches. Got a lot of people asking me too. Don't worry--I'll make sure it looks good!
Also, would you like it if I removed the keyboard theming? I was considering removing it. Not sure.

Hope that On/Off looks good, I just like the stock ones, think are nice.
Well you can keep the keyboard theming to a minimum: just theme the background, wich is a gradient. Make that background black and leave the rest stock (as shows on my first screenshot) :good:
Good, another theme that looks the same to Blue Infinitum

Not to sound rude, but you're incorrect. Nobody has done what I have--to my knowledge. You replace almost all pngs with a holo_blue version of the icon. I keep pretty much everything stock. I remove the ugly gradients, themed dividers, etc. I will agree our work looks similar, but I disagree on it being similar enough to say it looks alike. I'm pretty sure you didn't animate the sms icon or use a few nicer looking images for the Mms, phone, or contacts. Heck. I bet your theme doesn't even touch certain aspects--something I'm about to release that NO OTHER theme chooser does.
Before you come to someone's thread claiming the theme looks similar, please actually download my theme first, compare the two, think about it, then post about it.
edit: Just installed your theme. Similar yes. Same? Not at all. Sorry you feel like it is too similar. I strongly disagree though.

New icons are awesome, stock feeling but more cool. Keep it coming
The On/Off switches are nice, but to blacky, seems confusing... can't put a little dark grey when at off state?
SMS animation is awesome!!!

PLEASE DO NOT CONFUSE MY THEME WITH VA SPECTRUM and SPECTRUM
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello people.
This is my first time developing a theme. It took quite some time and I finally manage to make one that I really desired after a long time with some great software and the help of some people I met online and some of my techy friends.
I'm still new to developing themes. So do help me if there's some problem that I can never resolve by myself.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The purpose of this theme is simple. I wanted a theme that looked colorful-as I didn't like monotoned looks, with colors that best associated with icons and its attributes, such as the signal strength of data, or auto rotation. Also, since I wasn't good at making my own png files, I wanted to gather some of the nicest looking (to me) png files from all over android, and piece them together.

Sorry, but I think you're mistaken. I started this project weeks ago and didn't even look at any other theme besides r64s. So simply put it, I didn't see your theme name. I only wanted to associate it to rainbows, so I had to choose between spectrum and Roy B. giv. I thought the former sounds better so i picked it.
Again I apologize for having the same theme name. Besides, weren't your's called VA mix at first?
LOL good story
no hard feelings man
yeah it was mix but i was told to change it
sorry if i went too far

Apparently, the transparency isn't the windows 7 sort. It is just plain transparent, and too hard to distinguish the words on the transparency and the words in the background.
I'm loving all the colors, just wondering if maybe it's possible to make colors more bolder, as in not so pastely... But a little darker... Just an idea....

I'm working on improving the colours once I got all the icons with its proper colours including highlights. It will take quite some time and wont come too soon. When you mean bolder do you mean more vibrant or just darker?

installing now...zip via recovery method.
so far looks good, currently no found issues but i just installed it.
edit: ok, the bloatware needs to go!!! (news program and the tips widget). calendar widget, GV look like stock, im not sure if there was intention on your part to keep it that way or if it should be themed somehow because facebook looks themed somehow but cannot be read since the text color is too dark with the background, (cant speak for twitter as i dont use it or even have twitter on my phone)
gmail, market, fm radio, email, icons could use the blue color to match.
not sure how to install the zips for battery and lockscreen posted above....
overall it has great potential, i love the sharp looking icons in ADW launcher when long pressing an app on home screen and the options box pops up!
On landscape, the unlock buttons for the scrolling lock are not all themed.

First off this is a very informative comment, Thank you. As far as the "bloatware" those are Gapps and can be uninstalled. I do not plan much for Gapps as there are themers that specialize in this and it would be double work.

I had not heard this issue before as the other devices running this theme do not have a keyboard and so the lockscreen is in portrait only. I will fix this for sure.
No prob, I removed the apps asap anyways. I didn't know they were stuck there. Glad I could help, so far I like it. I haven't wanted to remove it asap or anything.
Maybe a little bit of background on the top of the pull down so the wallpaper does not show thru its hard to read and see the icons as its too transparent.
A Stable CM7 posted this jibberish
Updated with #54
After much consideration I have decided not to make flashable themes anymore. The apk for the T-mobile theme engine will be used from now on. It has been a concern by some people how this will affect the lock screen theme as well as other things. I will include a metamorph theme to apply to fix this too.
The advantage to using this method is that I can include things like inclusive skins for paid apps such as Fancy Widgets, Launcher Pro Plus.
The other advantage is that from now on if you update CM7 you do not have to wait for me to update the theme since you already have it, the only extra effort on your part is to re-apply the MM theme.
I hope this will be good foe everyone. At this time I have a few issues I am trying to work out. The main one being the dialer. The theme engine doesn't like to resize the images so it looks bad. My proposition is to add a poll for now to get your ideas. Please vote HERE so I can know what you would like best. For now try the apk and let me know what you think.
Looks nice. Will try it soon!

Yeah the problem with that is the edit I made to get the black text was in the services.jar in the flashable version. I cannot add that to the apk. How would you feel about an inverted Carbon lock screen? If not I will remove that image and leave it stock.

Here you have my first official ROM for the Galaxy Nexus. Let me first say that this rom was made 80% for me and 20% for you, so please don't ask for drastic/ridiculous changes. It is intended to be closer to stock, but with minimalistic themeing and just the right amount of tweaks (IMO). All included system/Gapps have been inverted, thanks to Travp624 (find him on Twitter @travp624), and they look fantastic. Almost all of the "holo" theme has been removed and replaced with white/black. It is based off of Peter Alfonso's 2/6 Bugless Beast nightly which includes 4.0.4 proprietaries. I have been using it for some time now and really love it, I hope you enjoy it too!
Normal disclaimer about how flashing a rom can be dangerous for your phone and such. Please always perform a backup before flashing any of my work (or anything really). If you some how mess up your phone it's your fault, not mine. You are not allowed to sue me, all you'd get would be student loans anyways.

Thanks for all the support guys! I hope you are enjoying the experience. I am already aware that app restore from the market does not work (I use Ti so wasn't aware of the problem until release). But I will try and get that working in the next release. So, just something to be aware of.
Can someone post a shot of the Settings menu? Is it standard or blacked out background as well? Thanks....looking good.

As pictured above, the settings menu also has the holo theme removed and uses the standard black as with all the other apps.

Hmm, not sure I have noticed this and I have no idea what would be causing that if it is in fact different from other roms. Yup, I can put together a zip with the stock status bar icons. Do you also want the notification pulldown to be stock colored as well or just the status bar icons? And my 21st is on Monday, so let's make it a beer
Very nice McD! I may try and port this over to the Rez when I or someone else fixes data
rom looks great, im waiting for the market fix before i install. i just have a few questions. does the battery icon have setting like in gummy where you can add the battery with percentage or change to circle battery or the blue bar if not that would be great to have because people have different preferences. also are the phone,people, and messaging themed black? post a pic please. also is there a way to change the bottom buttons? thanks in advance for listening.
Gapps baked into this Rom?

It does not have the different battery settings sorry, just the flashable for the MIUI battery. Yes, all system/Gapps (excluding Talk, which is being a little ***** haha) have been themed dark. You can find screenshots of them HERE with some very minor changes to 1-2 of them. This is the guy I worked with to get them in the rom.
Yes, changing the navigation bar icons is very easy. But since I'm sure there will be plenty of people who want them changed and I can't take the time to do them each individually, I will probably just post a tutorial for those who would like to do so.

I could make flashable zip but those battery are blue not white.
Noticed the buttons at the top in the notification bar (date/time) are block looking. (Screenshot with notification bar and Twitter being installed) I can help with that if you'd like. This theme really sharp, btw.

Mms because my last experience with Elegant Blue theme too many complaints that some are getting dark fonts on black background so i stop using it, and no for Contacts too because some programs will have the same bugs (dark fonts on black background) after themeing Contacts since some applications share the same code.
I really need Photoshop. Or some more creatvitiy. This theme is too good.

I went back to CM10, so i can't put a screenshoot. The toggles background was black, panel "wallpaper" was good, like cm10, on the top the icon to switch from notification to quick setting was settings icon instead of stock icon.
On quick reply text is light grey on white.
Love your themes, currently rocking your Moto theme. How easy would it be for me to modify this and the Moto theme to match a certain HEX code? For the signal bars, wifi etc.

Ok so here they are, Purple, Blue, Cyan, Teal, and Red Glass for v3.4 Lightning addition.
This is a refined version of the original glass themes and I think they came out pretty good.
100% compatible with TEKXouds N4 URv3.6 or v3.6R2 ONLY! Can be used with v3.6R3 with only minor issue. The Device Options Sound Icons will not be updated.
The SystemUI and Framework-res files were pulled directly form THIS rom.
Installing this on ANY other rom will make you not to happy.
Features all new S6 corrected images along with some other unique ones thrown in. Fully transparent Status Bar.
The idea behind these themes are to give it a clean not over themed modified stock look. Status bar icons are colored for a reason. Anything that will keep you from getting or hearing a call is in Red. Bluetooth is Blue with Green when a device is connected. I backed off on the Notification panel transparency a bit to make it more usable across multiple backgrounds.
Purple Glass Theme

NOTE: When flashing the theme, let the phone settle for a minute or so while everything is applied once it is booted back up. Also to remove these themes, you MUST use my Remove_Chipworkz_Themes zip to to put back the default files. Installing one of TEKHD 's other themes will NOT completely remove these. Also Stock in the file names means the DEFAULT status bar that is installed with the rom.
If you would like any of the mod options below on one of the other colors just let me know. Also the Virgin_v2 can be done for the non +3Minit Virgin option as well.
To install, simply copy the file(s) to you phone and flash them in TWRP like any other flashable zip.

A special thanks to @TEKHD for making such an incredible rom and the help along the way. Also a big thanks to @AL_IRAQI for the great theming guide he put together. Lastly thank you to @PapaMag for the really cool background that inspired this theme in the first place.
If you want to use one of the other mods in the rom that I did not theme, let me know and I will apply the theme as time permits. Please only request a special addition if you really plan on using it.
If you have any suggestions, please PM me.
Messaging App
Here are my versions on the Themed Messaging App. I got rid or most of the Orange but not all. Thanks to @OvrDriVE for giving @TEKHD the original lines to start theming this. I took it and rand just a little.
To use the solid dark background, within the app go into settings then display then Background style. Choose the dark background and then save.
Purple
Blue
TEKHD Light Blue (Matches Toggles)
TEKHD Dark Blue (Rom Default)
(Same exact files as v3.6, no issues with using these on v3.6)
I will be doing a few small changes for the v3.6 version before I upload them.

I just added a new full version of the Cyan theme. It is the stock systemUI. Is this what you were looking for?
Also are you on the TEKXodus rom? You signature shows Dynamic Pop so just making sure.

Here is the thread that I started with. Take a look at it and go from there. Some changes are very easy as it is change this color to that color with the new color code. Once you get in to it you will see how crazy just the coloring is in Android. You probably don't realize how many different colors \ shades are being used in the system either.
Good luck, it is awesome to be able to make your phone the way you want it.

I started to theme a bunch of the status bar icons but it starts to look unfinished as I could not find all the different icons that appear in the status bar withing the systemui. I thought it looks client to only theme the status icons for a purpose like I have. I may do something that is more "themed" later but for now I am staying with a more clean stock look.

That's really great. I'm one of those weird ones who likes the stock look, but love the transparent volume so I can change volume without interrupting what I'm watching underneath... since I use Wanam to fully expand the volume control.
I'm still on 3.4. Any chance of seeing a 3.4 stock theme? Or will it be 3.5?
