**Thanks to cole20444 for boot animation image ( I really abused his images, but they are seriously perfect)**
**CyanogenMod for ROM**
**droid_freak and Helenoftory08 for testing**
**UBRocked for name**

**BUGS - Possible issue with opening car home. No clue though, I never touched the app. (It opens without issue for me, and closes on notification pulldown like normal)
 
Good Stuff! Thanks for all the hard work on this theme as I have been very excited to get this on my phone!

Was going to bed...now I'm backing up and flashing this theme! ;)

EDIT: Looks better on the phone than it does in the images (and I thought that wasn't possible). LOVE the notification bar!!! I kind of have a hodge podge going on with my previous DroidX themed icons...but still works for the time being.

I'm officially a fan! Great work! :D

1. The wallpaper I change it to comes with the ADW.Launcher. If you are using another launcher, I assume you just choose it how you normally would. I will add a zip file of all the wallpapers this evening.

2. You have to go into settings / CyanogenMod settings and adjust the settings for the clock and notification color (to white)

Next updated, will be a pretty big overhaul.

All icons inside the framework-res.apk will be from the same type [major rechange, still the same typoe of "look"]. I want them to all match, and look relatively identical.

Also, all notification icons will be cleaner, and hopefully follow along the same lines. Two different areas, but would like to match up accordingly.

All the options in framework I consider a subset, and notifications a subset.

With each .apk that gets re-themed, it will match itself independently.... ie, blue for Facebook, red for GMail, etc, etc. I hope to have it work like that. Hang tight, will be on top of it asap.

Any ETA? I've really enjoyed this theme. The 3G reading is a hoot! My fiance tells me she only has 2 bars and I let her know I have no idea, but it still looks cool :cool:

The majority of the "ic_menu" images done. Those are the images that show up when you hit menu on any app, or on the home screen. In the Gmail image above, it is the "add labels, spam, mute... those type images.

I am much more happy with the progress now, as all the images "flow" together, and do not look as much as a mash-up. More like a "theme".

I have kept the "power/reboot" image, "plane mode", "notification bar", "notification close and background", "usb images". Will likely keep the "unknown contact" images I have in v1.0

Only one or two things I want to change on the notification bar. Definitely want to change the "wifi", still looking for new idea for battery... like my "gps"...

Hopefully this evening I can get out at least a v1.5, with the new revamped framework-res.apk so it can be refreshed.

Any thoughts on using this as a the wifi images in notification bar?

That would be in order from weakest signal to strongest.

I for one like it. Does it show up pretty well on the phone? It looks like it could be difficult to interpret the signal strength based on the pictures here. It's always hard to tell until you see it on the device vs. the computer screen :)

I could change the 3rd image to have just the outside shell show in blue, showing you have a weaker signal... then 4th image could be mid way between the current 3 and 4 now, and then 5th would have all blue, as is.

Pretty much just make the 3rd signal outside edge blue, and 4th signal, half of inside signal in blue, other half grayed out.

I have been using Kangerade for the past month and loving it..... but i have been watching your build for a while now and have been excited to try it out... so flashing CM6.0RC1 as i type, and will be loading your theme afterwards. I will post up my thoughts when it is done!!!!

..... Sucks having no Wifi and low 3G at the office... its taking forever to download in Rom Manager and i am impatient!

Ok FINALLY installed (damn office and giving me 1 bar of 3G) and my thought are.... totally amazing! The only reason i am going back to what i had before is I am not liking CM... for me Kangerade runs so much smoother and fits me more than CM. just for sh*ts and giggles i will try this theme over Kangerade but I wont hold my breath that it will work but its worth a try


Edit: as expected a no go with Kangerade.... Dunno how hard it would be to build it for Kangerade but that would be SO SWEET :)

Couple of previews on v1.5 [still so much I want to do]

v2.png

v22.png


The only bad part is that alot of what changes, you really have to search for it to take a pic. I know I have edited a couple buttons in the music app, that pulls from framework, and after seeing them in action, they will be changed.

There are alot of images edited, but I cannot change my Wifi here, get errors, or stuff like that, so I only see them in certain areas. I am trying to figure out something for batteries, the 3g, 1g, etc. I debated changing my current cell reception, but decided against it.

So, like I said... this is just a preview...
