[REQ] Black and White ICS Theme

I love all the ICS themes out, along with the minimal black and white, but I was really hoping for a combination of the two. I was thinking of an ICS theme, but without the ICS blue integrated into it and instead keeping text, notification bar, etc all white. Any other interest in this? I've never themed before and while I would like to learn, I don't exactly have a bunch of spare time to work on it. Just curious if anyone would be interested in taking on this task.

I'd like to see this done

+10 ... but I doubt anyone will do it, reason been there's another black and white minimal but maybe we get lucky

I must say that banks has pretty much already did this and it rocks.

I assume you're talking about his minimal black and white theme...it is awesome, but what I was proposing is a more stock ICS feel (dialer, notification bar, stock ICS icons) but with the minimal black and white color scheme. I might have to try to find some time to learn to theme.

I'll look into this.

I had one on my NS4G and it looked absolutely incredible!

The only problem with Black and White themes is that some icons will be black/white and others (from the market) will be colored and it creates an obsolete theme. That's the reason I haven't made a Black/White theme myself.

Yeah, especially gapps. Its something you would constantly stay on top of but even hitting the dialer, contacts, messaging and status bar icons is enough. People like B-Boy, Decalex, Rujelus handle the GMail, Dropbox, Google+, etc inverted apps

Apologies if I'm breaking any rules but....

1st off I wanna say no disrespect to the devs...I appreciate all the hard work that goes into all the awesome roms...seems that with all the talk of jellybean and without an official ics release that THEMING has taking a back seat..although i am enjoying team rejects change of pace (annihilation is awesome!) And I love the look of miui but I can't get it to work good enough for me to use as my daily,with that being said I kinda long for the days of a DUSK theme or an all white with black letter theme like the GTX rom I had on my TP2 I think these would look sweet on my et4g...anyone willing to work on anything similar to these?

I remember those themes. That really takes me back. But it would be awesome to see the dusk theme on this badboy

Not really any more than having Sense or something like that on your phone, its more of a kernel thing and we have some great evo specific kernel devs over here, you just have to find a pure AOSP rom without all the Sense, TouchWiz, Motoblur overlays, then just add your own Widgets icons launcher dialer keyboard font over that and create your personalized interface the way you want it....
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

was gonna post this elsewhere, but here's as good as a place as any i suppose. for those that want to mess around with theming here's a great place to start. it's a vrtheme template for our phone. It should work with most roms. here's a link with some quick info and the download link with our updated binary. all thanks to the villianrom team for a great template/idea
http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/threads/about-villaintheme-system.4971/
http://www.mediafire.com/?ddi2vc7qeg2y44x
basically instead of having to decompile and recompile apk's and have a complete and working apk to flash, this only requires that you place the images, xml's etc in the correct folder structure. everything is in the vrtheme folder in the zip. so to theme a system app, say systemui, you would create a folder called SystemUI.apk in the correct folder structure, namely vrtheme/system/app/SystemUI.apk. then all you have to do is drag and drop the images you want swapped into the proper folder locations. I included an example folder structure for images in drawable-hdpi for systemui and framework-res to get ya started. beauty of this is you can literally drag and drop whole sections of other themes into the template and it will just replace those images on our phone. So if those themes in the OP have same sized images and same names, you could just drag and drop those into the respective vrtheme zip folder and flash away. Make sense? just starting to get this going again on our phones, so mess around, but be careful, I'm obviously not responsible to anything you do
it can also be used to theme paid apps, which is sweet. since your not actually including the apk itself, and the app has to be in the location specified before you apply the theme.

Sense Theme

Yo guys, me and my man Overstew are about to release a Sense theme for FreeGS3 v1.0. So far, we've got only the Status Bar, but it's definitely coming along great!
Now, we need to know, do you guys want Sense icons everywhere, or a lite version? Do you guys prefer a LITE (status bar, dialer, mms only) or a full version (Frameworks; including popups, Sense icons everywhere, dialer, mms, pulldown, Sense icons for all apps, etc.) or both?
Any suggestions are welcome.
~Ascer

I'd say do it a full on sense theme. As many similarities as possible. Just my opinion. Looks great so far!!
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

I would really love a full sense framework ui on this phone. So closer to sense it looks, the better.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

I just wanted to say there are limitations. We can make things appear in the sense framework and even replicate many items 100% but things such as placement is outside of our knowledge. For example, replicating the pulldown is going to be nearly impossible but we can use the same color scheme.

Have you thought of changing some of the colors of the Pac-Man pull down. For example I like everything one color so I am using an all black and white type theme so it will match the Pac-Man pull down but it would be cool if we could make it ICS blue or purple or green.

What about if the background was transparent on the Pacman pulldown? That way it'll match what ever color you want. If so here http://db.tt/6nuIsKYO or do you want pacman, and his buddy's all the same color too like this http://db.tt/92a2KVEy which is purple? Let me know if 1 of those is what you want, and if so I'll make it any color you want.

Oh yes. Makes sense. Since this was made for stock, those additional part would likely cause an issue.

Installed this from link in op but download name had color black listed. Flashed anyhow but no difference at all from stock. Running freezas md4 deodex. Have installed native hot spot mod, note 2 keyboard, modded shutter sound and camera during call in the xml files. Does that mean I'm out of luck for blue.
