Root [THEME] BigDXSerenity * Froyo2.2 Custom Theme Experience * 8 COLORS TO CHOOSE FROM!! *

OK thats kinda what I thought. When it is available, will the skin be downloadable through BW itself, or will we have to apply the theme the same way as widget locker since its a paid app?

Thankfully BW lets you install a skin just by putting it in a folder on your sdcard so if it isn't available thru BW it will not be hard to apply.

tempted to try this, but I have allot of apps installed, and I have pictures I took for my background. Would this theme work well with a setup like that?

The theme only applies the system apps and framework automatically, the 3rd party apps you can install yourself so you decide if you want them themed or not. If the colors are too much, try the white one.

I tried installing the blue theme, but I noticed the text in my notification bar was black (meaning the time and the date when it is pulled down). Any ideas why? Obviously its hard to see black font on a black background and in the pictures the time is in white.

You are probably not deodexed properly. Instructions to manually deodex in first post.

quick question, i noticed today when I was messing with my home screens that the navigation app is no longer there. I thought I deleted it when I was removing bloatware, so I restored my phone to my original Deoxed state. After reboot, checked to see if navigator was there and indeed it was there and working. Reinstalled the Green Serenity and the navigation app was gone again.

Any ideas?

Sorry, there was a problem with that app in the theme. It will be fixed in the next update. Maps/Nav has also been updated to the newest version that was released today. Look for a BIG Big update tomorrow or sat. ;)

I'm installing this now, as we "speak." ;) I'll let you guys know my thoughts. I'm a red-type guy.

Edit: went through all the motions and it just hung when installing. It woudn't even start. Two battery pulls and I'm back at my Black Glass X theme. Oh well. Can't even review this thing.

Glad you are on here now, I started posting comments on XDA just because of your theme. I made a donation today also, thank you guys for this awesome theme! I love your red theme, but I am using blue now because of my overall Dallas Cowboys theme.

I'm looking forward to the updates so I can get my LauncherPro plus theme back and get the Slacker heart fixed.keep up the great work and know we appreciate it!:D

Glad to see you are theming now! I didn't check to see how your rooting went but obviously it went good.

BTW, the lounge thread kinda died out, we need to get that going again, I'm going to post there now.

Did you download the theme or the Widgetlocker&Rootexplorer skins? The actual theme is downloaded by clicking on the pic of the color you want, it should be a 40-50 mb zip file. You might as well wait for the next update tho.

Once again, a BIG Thank You from both of us :D

I tried to wait for the bugfix for LP which was supposed to come out Fri. night but it never showed. What I did was use the new 0.8.0.0 but I didn't theme the backgrounds like in the old version, the headers and footers are done, just not the backgrounds of the widgets. Those will be done as soon as the bugfix is released and a update will be put out.

Speaking of updates, they're uploading to the server and links should be up sometime in the morning. Here's a lil sneak peek. These are shots from a freshly restored 2.2 build thats been deodexed and nothing else installed except shootme and the Green theme.

The only apps not themed are:
NFS-I was going to do it but its a 90mb file and it would be a waste of space and bandwidth to include it in the theme for a icon.
Skype-Will probably be included in the next update
Androot-Maybe

Even though all system apps are themed in the app drawer it doesn't mean we are finished theming those apps, we just wanted to get the app drawer finished first since that's what people wanted ;) More updates coming!

Also, themed Swype is included with matching tracers, Blur widgets, calculator, and much much more...

I did both. Widget locker has been updated since I did it, but as soon as its updated, I am redoing the widget locker theme.

Um... er....uh.... I screwed up? ;) hehehe.. missed that. DOH!

Ok.. I'll do it now, but one question. Once I install the theme, are there different steps to install the widgetlocker zip?

WHOVER CALLS ME A STUPID IDIOT, FOR DOWNLOADING THE WRONG FILE, GETS THEIR POST REPORTED AND A WARNING GIVEN FROM THE MODS. ;) :p :D:D
