I love the water marked theme alot and know I am not the only one. So here it is to share.

Here is the theme with a personal touch for 4.5.591 & 4.5.595 & 4.5.596


************************
IMPORTANT
************************
Note:

When using any modifications to this build of Gingerbread (4.5.591 & 4.5.595 & 4.5.596 ). You may experience upon loading "No Service" or you may have a series of force closes or bootloops. This will also happen upon performing a restore from a backup.

There is a solution to this.

Boot into bootstrap and install the deodex zip below. After a restart you can then boot back into bootstrap and install the theme or any other theme of your choice.

This wil not cause data loss. And is not an issue with this theme this is an issue with 4.5.591 & 4.5.595 & 4.5.596 . This was found by other Dev's, and I had verified with numerous tests that the work around works great.

I flashed this and then did a factory reset but now when I boot up and have the start up android I need to touch to set up my google account it does nothing. Did I miss something?


No. you did nothing truly wrong, but the reset was not needed.

To get past it, imagine where the notification bar is and touch the 4 corners of your screen. Starting in the top left corner just under the notification bar. Then touch top right, bottom right and then bottom left. This wil by pass that. Not sure why it did that. Just rest mine and did the same thing. Touching the android guy is accomplishing nothing.

For those enjoying this theme like me but having trouble typing on the keyboard you can download this one for free and it is easier to type. You will lose the blue theme (just keyboard). Kirbnite hopefully you can theme this keyboard or something similar for Watermark'd

FYI, scroll down to the first one it's free.

Wanted to bump this post so maybe it would get some attention. I really like the Watermark'd theme. Just seems to fit well with GB. However as we all know nothing is ever quite good enough so my question to the themers of Watermark'd can I change the notification icons or is that asking for trouble. Would really like the blue circle battery mod

Would love to get this ported to Apex.....

You can't really use any of this on ApeX since ApeX went AOSP, and most everything for this theme is for Blurred GB.

It would basically have to be a complete redo, and I don't think (I'm just guessing here) that kirbnite wants to start over from scratch since he doesn't even use ApeX..........well at least he doesn't now, don't know in the future.
