wait is the only change the notification drop down? or is it everything like the other thread? the drop down looks really nice
Yeah can you elaborate on the changes or post additional screenshots?
It's the status bar, pulldown, popups, menu icons, buttons highlights and other things you would find on the framework. More screenshots when I find time to port more of this theme
It looks so nice.... someone please port the whole thing over

The Dialer for ElegantSteel is absolutely sick.... amazing.
I'm LOVING this. I'm so glad that someone finally ported over a great theme I;ve been too busy/lazy lately to bother doing any ports myself haha
Hey guys.
I tried to install this using Clockworkmod recovery... all seemed well... I can reboot into it and the status bar has changed to the lovely shiny look this new mod has...However, as soon as I unlock the screen the phone goes nuts... everything force closes... from ADW, to the core android process, to the logger process. Basically it seems like every process running force closes, restarts, force closes, so I can't get to my home screen... I just have perpetually force closing dialogue boxes to click.
I have to restore my nandroid backup to get out of it.
Anyone have any idea why this might be ? I would love to be able to install this.
Cheers
Jess

Did you install over something other hybrid r3? If so, then that may be the problem. I've been using this theme for a few days now and have not seen any fc's
Actually yes. Thanks for that
I completely spaced that part of the post for some reason. BOH!.
I'm running Vibrant9.
Chalk this one up to my own stupid fault. Thanks again.
so i just installed vibrant 9 rom
and i applied this theme, the dialer isn't changed in this port correct?
just wondering because a member above said the dialier looked sick and wasn't sure if he was actually using it
Just try to flash this one over stock deodexed rom but lot of fc,thats a shame because this theme is dope,i was using this on my myt3g!

Im not big on creating new threads but I noticed alot of threads asking about removing bubbles so I created some apks of mymode themes that have the bubbles removed. enjoy

EDIT: Should mention I am using SlideMeRoot5r1. I haven't tested it on stock or other roms, but it should work.
ok I have included system themes now. just push these to /system/app/"themename".apk
example: go into recovery and in adb do: adb push C:\Android\Hoops.apk /system/app/Hoops.apk

Great stuff! Also works fine on a non-rooted phone. Is there anyway you can put something under the icon text? Those of us with light backgrounds have a tough time reading the text.
Any way you could do this for Nest? I mainly use that theme with different wallpaper. Awesome job btw.

Only issue I came across is that the preview images for these do not load in the mymodes app when you're changing the themes.
Also, randomly it froze up and kept trying to reload the home page but kept freezing and repeating. If this happens, just power down and back on.
It'd be great to see the other themes get this as well
Previews showed for me, I really like these as well.

my phone is not rooted.
I got the issue solved now.
This is just a warning for those with non rooted:
Your phone could freeze up from these modified theme files.
If they do, you will not be able to get past the mytouch slide startup screen.
If you get frozen you will have to do a long battery pull (i let me out for almost 7 hours, i'm sure its shorter, i just did it while i was as work), then boot into recovery mode. This shoot then boot to the red triangle/exclamation. pull battery again (short pull), power phone up to the boot manager and do a fastboot. Hopefully if anyone else goes thru this, it will help them. I wouldnt want to see anyone else freaking out like i was this morning.
Note:Hard reset wont fix this issue
Now that some cool things for the Fascinate are starting to show up, I kinda pieced some things together from different sources to come up with my perfect rom (for today anyways ).
I have been running jt1134’s Super Clean D101 rom for awhile now. I found that I like some of the Samsung stock apps that were removed from his rom a little bit better. I found that I really liked the stock clock, music player, and messaging (with the swipeable features). So I added those back in.
Also added was the Blue Minimalism v1.3 Theme for a little blue, and the black notification bar with the see-thru drop down menu from the “Blackmod”. It also has the stock, non-puzzle, unlock screen with blue.
The kernel is stock with no oc.
Just trying to share what I like at the moment. I take no credit other than mixing up some ingredients on work others have done. The credit really goes to:
Jt1134. For that awesome clean rom tons of us have been using lately!
Raiderrep. For porting over the blue minimalism v1.3 theme (thanks to the original developer)
Stanrc. For the black notification bar and clear notification drop down menu.
DroidX007. For pulling the stock Samsung apps out for use and for being brave to test the blue minimalism theme out.
This is a clockwork recovery file. Unzip and put file inside into your SD card/clockworkmod/backup file and restore from menu. If someone knows how to switch it over to an update file, or show me how to do it, that would be great.

Very very nice. I don't think I'll be flashing it though. I like the puzzle unlock screen and some of the bloatware that gets removed in this. I also like the neon blue loading screens, but I want to make them darker. I didn't think I wanted anything TW on my phone when I first got it but a few aspects of it have grown on me.
EDIT: We live in the same city :O I think I will flash this. I love blue. But what all gets removed, and what happens if I have certain things frozen with Titanum? Will they just be left alone?
Well man from the Burg, make sure you do a back up first of what you got before you flash any rom. That way, if you ever need to get back those programs, you are safe.
I dont use Titanium but I would assume the files will still remain in you backup folder. When they are frozen, the arent deleted. So as long as you keep that backup file untouched, you should be able to restore those through Titanium as well.
As for everything that is removed, the base rom is Jt's and you can see it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=796171
All the essentials are there. Jt just removed a lot of the stuff that really was bogging down the system. He also removed some of the Samsung TW style apps and replaced them with stock android apps. I put those back in as listed in the OP.
Do a backup, flash it then you if you like it you can start adding anything deleted back into it with Titanium.
Also, in Jt's op linked above, you can get the puzzle screen lock back.

Alright. I hate the bloatware but I'm keeping it frozen so the Froyo update will be easy. I'm flashing now.
EDIT: Finally got it to run. Will this remove my lag fix?
EDIT 2: Why is everything wiped? I was not expecting that...
After restoring, backing up my contacts, and re-flashing, my contacts restored but my apps decided not to. But the phone just feels...faster. Do I need to restore, backup, and flash again?
Looks nice but I am not smart enough to make this work.

Use Titanium to reinstall all your apps. When you flash roms, you get real good at reinstalling your apps and settings. Hint, if you use LauncherPro or ADW, there is a backup function that will back up your screens exactly like you had it!
You should be much faster. JT really streamlined this rom. I love what he did!

Awesome, thanks!!!! How has battery life been for you? I have tried the deodexed version and it seemed to go down for me...so I reverted back to odexed. But, want to stay up to date.
Battery life on my Fascinate has never been the greatest but I didn't notice a difference when a switched to a deodexed Rom.
I've read the horror stories but not with my phone. Plenty of happy people on this forum who havent had a problem with the new deodexed roms either.

I have not tried this rom, but I assume its deodexed because steeeler is using Jt's deodexed super clean rom. with add mods and tweaks like Raidereps Blue Minimalism theme and other sources as well that he listed at the OP. It looks like it should be a pretty straight forward rom its just not a zip file so it will be installed differently thru CWR.

Sorry about that. Should have put that up. I added to the op.
Is there anyway to put the visual voicemail back in to prevent the dialer from crashing. If you touch the voicemail button the dialer will crash. That was my issue with JT's rom. I can't seem to get voicemail back in....
Otherwise this is a great rom. Thank you....

Good catch, first time I heard of that problem. I always just use the quick dial 1 to go to voicemail.
I wonder if it has something to do with the deodexing. This is a different dialer than on Jt's.
I'll poke around his thread to see if anyone has a fix

UPDATE 11/19/2010 4:00pm
DOWNLOADS INDEFINITELY REMOVED, taking a break from XDA, and don't want to return to a thread of nothing but bug reports, whining, and more un-credited use of my work.
And lastly, I never used to care about people using my work if they gave me credit, but I've found a lot of people re-packaging my battery icons without any mention of credit, or link to my original threads, and its just really annoying, takes barely a few seconds to add a "credit/thanks to xxxx" note or link somewhere in your posts. So from henceforth if you want to use my mods/theme in your own rom, mod, etc. you MUST:
1) ask my permission to do so.
2) you must link back to my thread and provide credit to me in your post
3) your mod/theme/etc. must be for non-commercial purposes
4) you must also share your mod/theme back to the community
Nice. Thanks.
I was gonna try and mod it myself for accurate battery and all but then thought nah Jocelyn will post something in the next few days and her stuff always rocks.
You gonna add in the bluetooth and power menu mods?

Hi,
On JK2 the bluetooth toggle seems fixed already, at least for me, when i click it, it toggles on and starts scanning for devices in a popup automatically, so there really isn't a need for that.
And once untermensch ports his power-menu mod and the epic/puzzle lockscreen mod to JK2, I'll add them both.
I know he's working on porting some of his mods to froyo already, and I might look through the power menu to see if I can do it without waiting for him to port it officially, but the lockscreen mod is definitely over my head until he releases froyo specific mod/source.
Cheers everyone, =)

awesome work as always,

Perfect! Really like the color changes and the window shade look, plus the battery icon. Animations are ok.... Wasn't there a way to speed up animations system wide?

Hi,
You can speed up animations using SpareParts.apk
I don't honestly remember where I got the apk I'm using now, but you might be able to find it on the market, or likely a CM5.0.8 or CM6 build for the nexus one.

Hey Jocelyn -
Actually, the power menu mod is already working in Obsidian V2. All you should need is some components from their framework-res.apk, the framework.jar, and the android.policy.jar, and it will work on the ROM you are using. I have it working on mine just fine (same ROM as you). At the very least, if you get stuck trying to do it yourself, using these files as a reference might help.
Good luck.
can i install this MOD on AOSPish 1.1 ? (JK2, as i know)
just flashed this and got the animations and the color changes but no AOSP can be found. I flashed the latest jk2_matte_with aosp lockscreen. Tried turning puzzle on and off in display but still only the glass lock screen is showing.

In Eugene's Macnut R10 build, the baseband is listed as JK2 and I know he ported some of the unofficial leak over to that build, I'm wondering if this is compatible? Has anybody tried? Or what else do I need to look for to check compatibility before I try it. I can restore, thats never a concern, but would rather avoid fc cutting if I can.
Edited: no, no it does not, but i gave it the old college try. hopefully eugene's next build will be more jk2 and compatible, cause i dig s0niqu3's battery mods.

OP, the issue with a gray background behind icons extends to icons other than debugging. Right now, my notification bar icons for CopyPasteIt (clipboard icon) and Google Music Beta (headphones icon) both have gray backgrounds on the black bar.
Isn't there a way to make any and all icons show black backgrounds?? There's no way you can keep up with every single icon and keep editing to fix the issue..there are unlimited icons that may show up there for apps..
Is it possible to eliminate this issue for all icons?
The icon pack is about half done I am at work right now so Ill do more when i get home, but should be done soon.
thanks for this significant work. the original grey bar really is annoying.

Hi,
I wanted to express my opinion about the TEAM PERFECTION'S ICS OBJECTION rom.
The ROM is perfectly smooth - just works out of the box. It may appear deceptively simple, but the long update list in Development thread's OP provides a good explanation why it works so well.
If you had spent some time running Hybrid or Collective Troposphere ICS ROMs then you will be surprised to see the ATT boot animation (though I'm sure that if it's not to your liking then it can be replaced with any other animations that had been posted in different threads )
And another great thing about this ROM is the developer response time - appdroid is actively monitoring the thread and before I had time to load the stock rom there was an update for mms FC that was reported - now that's impressive.
The only issue that I had observe is phone hanging when trying to restart the phone. Happened two times but on third reboot it was ok. Didn't seem to be reported by anyone else so may be just my phone?
Oh, and if you are as adventurous as I am - don't try flashing Tablet Mode UI fix - I already did That will FC System UI and Launcher. From everything I've read in Hybrid thread I knew that this couldn't work, but just had to try (perhaps the fact that I got tablet UI working really well in Troposphere ROM contributed to the desire to make this attempt)
Edit - both of the issues listed above are gone, kind of. Did the exact same steps as earlier and this time rebooted fine without hanging. That part is for sure. As for the Tablet mod - it works fine at the DPI above 213. Again, make sure you flash TabUI_all_DPI.zip as this is the one I tested. 320 DPI is too big, but I think 240 should work fine.
Edit2 - Tablet UI works! Just not with default launcher. I was able to get 213 DPI resolution to work with Go Launcher, but Nova should also work

I don't intent to move all of TEAM PERFECTION'S ICS OBJECTION-related discussion here, especially since appdroid is monitoring his thread very closely. But it's nice to finally have a voice.
I flashed tablet mode over this. The combo works perfect

That's great news. Will give it another try.
I assume that you loaded the new Tablet UI enabler zip (TabUI_all_DPI.zip) and ran it at <= 213 DPI?
Edit - did you also observe hanging on shutdown/reboot?
I ran TABLET_UI_AOSP_A2. Nothing else.

Thank you. I got it all working now, just had to load another launcher (go launcher) BEFORE loading tha tablet UI (though I used the latest multi-DPI zip) and it worked fine at 213 DPI. If you can, please post in Development thread as people are asking and I still can't post there. I will PM Jay (appdroid) too.
Love this rom. there's just something about it like. Flashed A couple of roms but always found myself nandroiding back to gb. Been on this since last night and after a full run today I like it a lot.
Only thing I changed was the launcher to apex. Just needed something that looked stock but gave me more grid space. Works great.
Swapped the mms.apk with the one from tye noteworthy thread and no more fc there.
Now I just need to get tethering working.

Can anyone confirm setting lockscreen wallpaper? My setting doesn't seem to persist (get an error image could not be saved)

Thank you. And of course if you want to run at or below 213 DPI you need to replace contacts app. But then again, if you don't care about samsung dialer commands (like #*2263#) then might as well replace the whole dialer, as at that resolution some dialer buttons in stock dialer are partially cut off.

Tried both before posting - none works.
Of course your post is a clear indication that it works for you. That means it's just my system then.
I think its a fantastic ROM so far. I had a couple FC's when doing the initial contacts sync with gmail and then when trying to put weather on the lockscreen. Other than that this ROM is fantastic. I think this might be one I stick with until the second leak comes out or the official ICS push.....Thanks DEV's!!!!!!

Same here. Though I might miss some of the tools available in other ROMs
Sometimes I wish we had a sticky thread with ALL the updates available globally (i.e. rom-independent) so we could get those as needed. Just like we have for Accessories forum.

I just got the Note today. Freaking huge even compared to my SGS2 and Galaxy Nexus. I was hunting for a good ICS Rom with tablet mode (I tried it on the GNex and it's freakin' sweet) and your post settled it for me. Thanks.
