This is a port of the Droid X interface for Motorola Droids running CyanogenMod 6.

BUGS

-Well, not exactly a bug, but go ahead and change the clear notification button text color to white, if you'd like, using CM settings (hex is FFFFFF)

-Also, battery percentages are offset (nothing I can do about this really, without using different battery indicator images)
 
Installable Themed Third Party Launchers

-These are installable .apks. You don't need to push (don't push, actually), you don't need root, etc. If you have ADW or LP installed already, you do need to uninstall them first!

Themed ADW Launcher Standalone 0.9.0
org.adw.launcher.apk

Takes a little work (changing settings) to get it to look exactly like this:

Themed LauncherPro Beta 0.6.7.2

Takes a little work (changing settings) to get it to look exactly like this:

Any chance you'd made a version with a black notification bar?

He stated in the other thread he wont be adding a black notification bar. He is keeping it the same as the Droid X dump.

On another note. Fab, I love the theme and I noticed on this one you fixed some of the black on black text issues but there are some situations that are still black on black such as setting the desktop account on chrome to phone or options such as "download" or "preview" in gmail. It seems there is some other xml that might need to be edited but idk. Just thought I would let you know. Otherwise it is great.

Make sure to uncheck show battery percentage under CM settings, otherwise you get double #s. (strangely, I was getting two different figures - 90 and 100 :thinking:)

Yep found that one out the hard way lol...

Oh and the reason you were getting different numbers is because CM has the battery in 10% incraments while the X theme has them in 20% incraments which is the norm.

ok - maybe a easy question, but I've installed the theme and can't seem to get the circular drawer button - any suggestions?

Which launcher are you using? You need to install one of the themed launchers from above to get the circular app drawer. If you're already running ADW or LP, make sure you uninstall them first before installing.

Using ADW - Installed the Fabulous X _ CM6.zip from above. Tried uninstalling ADW first, but could not because it was running I assume. Any help is appreciated - thanks
