Nice !!!
If you don't mind me asking, what home luncher are you using?
That's the default Arc home launcher, with what looks like custom icons..

Hi,
Looks good !
What's the widget on the first screen that shows the system's temperature, ram etc..
Thanks !
I thought so too but wasn't sure.
Do you know if I have to reflash or something like that to make custom icons for the stock luncher?
I'm a complete noob when it comes to something like this.

BUMP on the question regarding the widget on the left screen showing the phone data!
The widget on the left screen is called "System info widget". It´s in the Market for a small cost.
The launcher is arc-original, and I use Desktop Visualizer to change the icons.
Thanks for the info, what are you using to take screenshots?
Thanks!

It's not mine lockscreen . It's not the default theme, if you isntall it it will look like the 2.2 lockscreen. But you can theme it very easily and even put own widgets on it.
I'm using it on my Nexus and sometims, when i unlock, is see the original locksreen for that i use a app called no lock

Themes for CM7

Here are some nice Themes for CM7:
Click here
Click here
I hope a thread like this doesn't exist already in Defy Forum
You just have to install the ".apk" file and select it in Theme Chooses, after that you have to reboot the phone so all icons show up.
And you only should use hdpi themes
If you found some other interesting themes please post them
Two threads already
Ephumuris. Defy CM7 by Quarx.
Very nice themes, I have used "JAMT - White Gradient", a white theme.
i think the honeycomb theme is the best one...
yep, i really like the honeycomb one too.
I was wondering if it's possible to change the appearance/icons of the sliders in the lockscreen in a simple way. I tried widget locker but found it laggy.
If anybody as a cool solution, I'm interested in it. thanx
Can we merge the two threads ? Some screenshots would be nice too .... btw what are the best ones you have tried ?

When you click on the 2nd Link you can see some Lockscreens under "Basic Add-Ons".
And then scroll down to "Instructions for ZipThemer" there you can see how to do it.

Hey LitoNi, I really like what you have done on yours. Im trying to achieve a similar minimalistic style.
If its not too much trouble, Could you post all the widgets you used and how you got to change the icons?

okay umm
clock: Advanced Clock Widget
calendar: Simple Calendar Widget
calendar (on home screen): Minimalistic Text
the shortcuts: Simple Text
data counter: 3g watchdog (paid version)
battery: circle battery widget
Its really hard for me to explain to you how i achieved it. I really spent alot of time figuring out whats this and that. I would recommend you try to youtube it if possible. otherwise i would be writing an essay explaining how to use the app.
no worries, it took me hrs but im sure you can understand it without any issues

Use simple text and add a Shortcut, not a Widget, you can then move to the dock

lol thanks
the circle battery widget doesnt show how much time left till full charge or what. it just charges and the number goes up. ex. 45,46,47,48...
and you can just set what ever color you want depending on what you consider is "normal" "warning" "critical" "charging" and "charged"
the attached file shows what it looks like with the hollow circle and full circle

yea basically what he said.
add(press and hold on the homescreen) > shortcut > simple text
or
add > widget > actions > shortcut
it took me a while to figure out the coordinate so that the words lies ontop of the line.
i think x-coor=0 and y-coor=110. text size was 40.
and dont auto scale it ruins the word. ;l

How to guide...

I was looking for a "how to guide" on how to make themes for the app, but I did`nt come across any here.
So is there some sort of template or guide somewhere that lads like me can use in order to make some themes for the app, cheers.
there is a video guide m8 probably the easiest way to do it is to download a theme and get used to changing things around to how you want them ie change the wallpaper,icons etc

I'm having problems with themes, some of the widgets are not aligned properly, I try to do it manually but is not working, I just recently moved to SlimBean from Omega, no problems on Omega, I guess it's the DPI SlimBean uses, should I go to the next bigger DPI?

Chances are it's DPI issues, Themer was designed to work only on stock DPI as well as the supported resolution. We will consider changing this in the future though.
Any chance for a more advanced tutorial?
I am sure Themer got so much to offer that wasn't cleared on the previous tutorial

If you can make a .ttf file then yes just add the .ttf file you make to MyColorScreen-Themer-EverythingWidget-CustomFont
Then you will see any .ttf files you add in fonts on themer

To set screen 2 or any other long press home screen when widget's are locked and select +/- home screen there you will find 2 columns 1 for number of home screens and 1 to select which is the default home screen.
IE: for a 3 page theme and default screen as 2 it would look like in my screen shot

Long press and release on an app on the home screen and a purple icon will be on the app then just click that purple icon and you can choose any image from your gallery to use.. But to change the shape like a round icon then the image in your gallery has to be round.
