There are already a number of total Sense UI ports, if you want the whole shebang.
If you're already running CM6.1 (as your thread title suggests), then you can manually set a black status bar in the CyanogenMod Settings (just go to the normal phone settings menu and it's in there). You can adjust the color to pretty much anything you want - I did some experimenting with CM6 on my Nexus One trying to match the status bar to various backgrounds - it's do-able, but you have to tinker with a bunch of different settings, applying the same hex color code to each one. Kind of a hassle.
CM6.1 also lets you import an XML file to change the colors, which you could build on your computer and then apply. Might be easier.
I've built this theme from pieces found in other mods. I'm not a designer nor a developer but I like to personalise what I'm using.
Also, I truly like the stock gingerbread look so, I've tried over the last few weeks various combinations of colours and images in the framework and applications. Because I really like how everything came out and maybe I'm not the only one liking stock stuff, I thought to share it.
The main credits are going to Ock and Darkyy because I've used mainly elements from their work.
This theme will NOT be maintained over time and I welcome anyone who think that certain things can be improved, to modify it accordingly. Of course, the obvious bugs will be corrected as it will be found or indicated.
The theme is tested on a deodexed JVB rom so I wouldn't recommend trying it on any other rom.
This theme has:
- AOSP lock screen only
- CRT screen off animation
- Green glowing overscroll
- lockscreen, phone and clock are sharing the same style for the interactive buttons (for unlocking, answering phone and turning off alarms)
- clean battery stats (no percentage)
- gingerbread launcher included
The theme is CWM3 flashable .. but please mount in advance the /system partition (from the mounts and storage cwm menu).
I personally use ADW launcher with gingerbread look and I've used the icons from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=870691
Enjoy (or not ) ...

If someone wants I can provide the framework with the percentage over the battery (but will no longer look stock-like).
Nice theme, I love it!
Hi ro_explorer,
can you tell me where can I find (and how to install) only the AOSP lock screen...
I kinda like the stock TouchWiz (or I just got used to it) but the clock at the bottom of the locked screen is driving me nutz
thanks in advance!
ROM developers already spend enough time to provide a quality product, but not all of us are always 100% happy with the way the ROM looks. Theme developers will make different themes for a particular ROM, but even still not everyone wants every change introduced in the theme. It can be cumbersome for developers and themers alike to thoroughly please each of its followers. That's where I'd like to change the game with the GSIII - rather than having to rely on a themer to make something that looks close to what you'd like, you'll be put in the driver seat and choose your own modifications.
What options are you presented with?
- Battery style
- Clock position and color (stock grey or ics blue)
- Brightness slider (won't work on stock ROMs)
- Placement of the date/clear button bar
- Transparency % of the notification area
- Lidroid toggle style (keep your current or use my slimmed ICS blue ones)
- Number of lidroid toggles shown w/o scrolling
- Text labels or not below those toggles
However, these changes can't be made possible without a little side effect. In this first version, the style of the clock, date, clear button, and toggles use the ICS blue color. In future versions of the theme system, additional styles will be provided!

These are based off Verizon ROMs, but it gives you a general idea what your current ROM will look like.

Does this work with all ROM versions, such as stock ICS, AOKP, Leaked touchwiz 4.1, etc.?
I was just introduced to Aroma and love the customization features on stock ICS! Mainly for the center clock, AM/PM small option, Crysis battery mod and hopefully the abbreviated small weekday option in the future.
This is for ICS TW ROMs - NOT CM, AOKP, or JB ones.

does not work on wanamlite 1.3 which is ics based on the new VLALH1 rom.
Works on rooted stock LG1 thanks! Saves me from decompiling and recompiling systemui.

Just installed and tested this out on Kyan's Rom. No luck, it booted up with some errors and the notification bar wasn't there (made the screen look huge....kinda cool looking actually). Anyway, had to restore my Nandroid backup.
Sounds like a great idea, hopefully you can work the bugs out.
Thanks.
Many custom ROMs have non-AOSP graphical resources, e.g. Carbon has many elements colored white instead of holo blue to create a KitKat style.
The problem is that often times, this styling decision affects themes from CM's theme engine, e.g. the white stripe in the header of pop-up dialog boxes often remains in a CM theme like "Veu". It's very frustrating to have these clashing styles.
So my question is: is there a way (a flashable .zip, perhaps) to override the out-of-the-box custom style with the baseline AOSP style in order to make a CM theme look the same across various ROMs?
This problem has always bugged me and leaves me wondering why ROM makers even bother to include the theme engine if their custom style is just going to interfere with it.
Hi folks,
I'm a happy owner of a Xiaomi Note 11 phone and a very unhappy user of the latest Android 13 based LOS20, due to the impossible color scheme introduced in Android 12.
I'm basically using the dark theme and I have a really hard time reading the usual (system font) text, which is small and has a really bad contrast being by default grey-blueish. I found no (documented) way to change that system font color and LOS20 has a series of basic colors (one dumber than the other) in the Wallpaper & Style settings, none of which having a white default color.
I enabled high contrast in the Display settings, the system font got really white, but if it gets displayed over a non-black background, then a stupid halo like shadow is displayed around it making the reading again very difficult.
Here I found more complaints about Google's UI colors choice since Android 12:
In Android 12 can you manually change text color without using themes or changing wallpaper? - Google Pixel Community
I tried that Repainter App and it didn't even start on my LOS without Google Apps subsystem (that's why I run LOS in the first place).
Repainter v1.2.0 brings new Material You theme styles for unrooted Android 13 and OneUI 4.x devices
Repainter v1.2.0 brings new Material You theme styles for unrooted Android 13 and OneUi 4.x devices, and you can learn about them here.

I'm wondering why the LOS devs didn't correct this UI design issue, since there are a lot of voices (plenty of links on goggle search) complaining about this poor UI/color design choice by Google since Android 12.
I'd be very happy if some of you more knowledgeable could point me to what file to edit/hack (phone is rooted) in order to set the system font on white.
Thanks in advance!
