What happens when ElegantSteel and Gingerbread meet?

Elegant%20GB.jpg


This theme is a mashup of the theme ElegantSteel by Jedipottsy and Gingerbread4Froyo by GRZLA. This theme is based off of Velocity 1.0 for Android 2.2.1 (FroYo) Both are needed to flash.

I like this, but if I wanted to go back, how would I?

If you are running Velocity then go into "Terminal Emulator" then once it opens enter "su" if for the 1st time opening it will ask for root permissions and press "Allow" once that is done. type "velocity" then enter "1" then press enter then type "4" press enter then pick Stock Gingerbread ,GingerBlue ,GingerRed , GingerYellow

Wow that is beautiful, downloading right now! Thanks!

Edit: Was the wallpaper not included? Still had my usual one after reboot and don't see it in any of the menus. Where can I get that?

Heh. Was meaning to do that. Couldn't get it to flash into the theme right . Here is the link:

The only reason I am hesitant to download this theme is the black-on-dark gray in the notifications menu. It just seems almost impossible to read. Could you make the text white/light gray? Does anyone else find this a problem? Also, the notifications on the top bar seem to be gray-on-gray (at least the USB one).

I don't mean to bash, just be constructive.

I COMPLETLEY agree. These are being worked on and will be fixed in EGB 1.1 (Out this Friday!)
Thanks!
