[tom108]

This is a Port of the Clean Back Bar by JoelWRX.
it maintains most of the DX stock colors and images except for the notification bar and its icons. there are also a few added images from the splender theme i did on the droid.

This is for 2.2 only

It just means to put the zip file on the sdcard but not in a folder.

Root of the SD card means the very first thing you see when you enter your phone's 'hard drive' from your pc.

Leave it as a .zip file, do not unzip it.

Glad you like it. i was waiting for one as well but just had to do it my self.

 

[Fabolous]

So I'm assuming the porting tool worked, or did you do it manually?

If you can afford 160 on service you can spring for the 1.99 for an app you tight a$$ I joke. But serious its a fine app well worth the few dollars they ask for .

Heck give it a try and if you don't think it's worth it uninstall it within 24 hours and you don 't get charged. One of the best features of your app store is you can try anything and if you don't like it you can get a refund. Try that at Apples store. If you decide you like it I'm sure you can scrap up the 2 bucks...Just make Jr. eat peanut butter and jelly (no beard of course that cost $$) for a week.

FYI it does A LOT more than just let you have a different background. Its well worth the $$ and I don't say that about a lot of apps but Widget locker is a good app.

i did this one manually. still afraid to try the porter on the X.

Well the option to install is to "choose zip from Sd card" so he could place it anywhere he likes as long as he can find it again. I really hate putting zip files in my root as it would be very easy to forget they are there and install the wrong thing someday.

Wait so this new froyo is not actually 2.3. Its still 2.2 just a different build.

If you check under "about phone" you'll see we're still on android verison 2.2 but system version 2.3.13.

 

[D13]

Yeah I know I was just getting the impression that people thought this was 2.3. Like the title of the thread what does that mean whe he says 2.2&2.3

I think he's just saying the leaked 2.2 or the 2.3 update.

trying to make it clear for everyone. i see many other theme threads with questions like "Will this work on the new 2.3 build?

[BIG CAT 7]

Is it possible to make this without the clock?

 

[djuniah]

I hate to be that guy asking off-topic questions, but could you provide a link to that bar background you're using at the bottom of the screen? And also the name of that icon pack that uses letters instead of images (I know i've seen it all over the forums/blogs but i cant seem to remember the name).

Thanks!
