Project has been terminated. Sorry to anyone who I have left waiting. I have too many personal things going on to be able to work on this. If someone wants to pickup where I left off, feel free, just credit me.
I have been working on this for a while now, and it is not quite finished (still more framework and twframework edits to make, along with some other system apps). I only really get to work on this at work, and even then it's not much, so it has been slow going, and updates may be slow.
I though I would reach out to the public at large for some feedback.
This has been mostly edits to the base Trigger files (many edits) and some images and .9s from NeonGT that I liked, along with a couple icons I found searching on Google. Eventually I plan to replace many images with some of my own to better fit my style.
I appreciate any comments you may have to help improve my theme. I've done some small Metamorphs before, but this is my first time attempting a full theme.
v1.0
Updated some framework images with some green versions from Trigger 2.9.4
- Modified the yellow on the battery percentages (40-60%) so it should hopefully be easier to see.
Updated Launcher some more
Added in Akbar font (you will need to set through Flip Font in Settings)
Starting to modify Dialer
Some other minor stuff I can't remember
v0.3 Beta
More framework edits - framework is done except for a couple of .9s I will eventually get to
twframework updates
Massive edits to Email.apk
v0.2 Beta
Minor framework edits
Slightly new spinner/loading icons - Tell me what you think of them
v0.1 Beta
Many, many framework edits
Gmail starting to be themed
Email app starting to be themed
Launcher edits
Settings edits
Coming soon:
Finishing framework/twframework/Gmail/Email
Dialer amd MMS theme
Custom made icons
Bringing all the green colors closer together on the palette for a more consistent look

I can add it in if people want. It's one of many flip fonts I made a while back.
Ah I love this theme. Really wanted a different color than blue. Can't wait to see what your going to do with it!
OP updated. Any changes, suggestions, insults about the theme?
Great. Will update.
Not sure if its just me or just nitpicking, but when my battery was low yesterday it seemed like the green went away or like really "dims" on the battery icon.
Maybe its just me though.
Great theme regardless!

I will fix the link in a couple hours. On the road for work and not near my pc.
As for the battery, the glow around the icon should go green, yellow, red as the battery drains. The yellow is hard to see. Maybe that's what you are seeing? I have plans to fix that soon.

Alright no problem.
Ahhhh ok. Yeah I just took a close look at it and its yellow. My mistake. But yeah very hard to notice.
This looks really nice! Love green, about to flash Trigger again and going to give this theme a go!
Anybody can confirm working on bionix, also how about a green swype? (don't know if it's in there but I will supply file if wanted, it wasn't my creation tho

This is amazing! I'm loving it, if I had anything to suggest, I think it would be awesome if you can change the pull-down menu dividers between the notifications to green along with the font to show up green. I think it would look really nice.

I didn't have any plans to theme Swype as I don't use it (I actually remove it from a rom zip before flashing so I don't have to deal with it). Check out this thread as there are some nice Swype metamorphs in there. Also, I'm sure there are more threads for Swype themes out there.
There is actually a post here for a bunch of blackout swype themes that were made by creator. There is a link to them on the MTM Gingerbread post.

Slightly Better Gingerbread for Bionix-v (1.2.1)For a more authentic Gingerbread experience (or not) in Bionix-v. Plus addons!
As seen on Androidspin (2.1 beta). Thanks Stormy!
To be honest, you can hardly call these themes. There were just a few small things about the Nero/Bionix-v series that bugged me, so I fixed them and decided to share them with you! All I did was modify the Bionix-v framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk to do the following, nothing else has been changed.
Disclaimer:
I do my best to thoroughly test and make sure my themes and updates as universal as possible. That being said, not every flash is perfect. Issues with my themes/updates in the past have been rare, and easily recoverable, but that may not always be the case. Just as with any other updates you apply to your device, you're taking a small risk; That risk can grow when negative factors are added, e.g. human error/misjudgment, bad downloads, bad flashes, etc. I make these updates in my spare time, and offer them to anyone interested, however I am not responsible for damaged software, hardware, or any lives that brutally fall apart after flashing my updates. Please make sure you fully understand what you're doing, and the steps to reverse it if necessary, before applying these updates. XDA is a valuable source of information, simple searching/reading threads will often help you find a solution.
Apply SBG:
Unless you'd like to test compatibility with another ROM, please make sure you're running Bionix-v 1.2.1.
If you've applied any other themes or Metamorphs to your ROM in the past: Download Theme Restore, and flash with ClockworkMod Recovery. (Be patient, it will take several minutes to reboot.) Otherwise you may skip this step.
Chose your preferred version of SBG below. Download and flash with ClockworkMod Recovery. (Be patient, it will take several minutes to reboot.)
Just as with all my updates, it is unnecessary to disable Voodoo before flashing.
Screenshot
Download Theme Restore for Bionix-v 1.2.1

Reported working on the following ROMs:
This version is currently untested on anything other than Bionix-v 1.2.1. If you know what you're doing, please report back to me. Don't forget to make a nandroid backup!
Change Log:
SBG 2.6
Ported to Bionix-v 1.2.1
That's it! I've been lazy lately.
SBG 2.5
Ported once more to Bionix-v.
Improved GPS animation.
Improved GB style tabs in some applications.
Added back TWiz text selection and toast frames.
SBG 2.4
Ported yet again to Nero v5.
Added some new GB style icons to TWiz Quick Settings.
SBG 2.3
Ported to Nero v4.1.
Adds Jocelyn's accurate battery mod.
Adds my five bar signal strength mod, themed to look exactly like GB.
Themed TWiz Quick Settings in status bar to look more like GB.
WiFi signal strength displays properly.
This list would be longer but a lot of my changes from 2.2.2 already made it into Nero v4.1.
Addons/Older Versions/More Customization:
From now on I'll be using birgertime's ACS Java application for all addons, older versions, and eventually more ways to customize your experience. I'll also include betas, requests and minor updates. I'm still in the process of getting everything I'd like on there, but it's starting to look pretty good! If there's anything you'd like to see on there, or if you have any contributions, please don't hesitate to ask/share in this thread. I feel this application has a lot of potential! Don't forget to thank birgertime, and leave him feedback!
Thanks/Credz:

This is just to make it look a little more authentically Gingerbread, and clean it up a bit. Nothing flashy for now, but I might mike something a little more exciting based off this. I'm open for suggestions! Anyone else is more than welcome to use this as a base for their themes as well. Make sure you don't flash any themes made from older versions of Nero though, as you'll lose a lot of optimizations added in this version. Alternatively, if you already have, this will bring you back to v3.

I don't see why not. I haven't looked at the TWiz version, but if there was any TWiz theming it will be replaced by GB. It shouldn't break anything, but if it does just report it; I'll help you get back to normal and make a TWiz version that will work. I wouldn't worry though, you should be fine. Please report back and let me know how it went.

I tested it briefly, worked perfectly for me. Calls seemed very clear too. And I was at my dad's place with crappy DSL when I tested it too. I pulled it from JL5 so it should be to your liking or better. It's been downloaded almost a hundred times and no one's complained yet.

I Noticed that many developers are including the new Rotary Lockscreen in the recent roms that have been released, and thought I would create a thread entirely devoted to Custom Lockscreen Mods for our device. I don't claim to be a developer or themer, but however noted that we have some of the best themers and developers in the Vibrant thread so thought I would start a thread for those who would like to share some themed Lockscreen Mods. I have extracted several settings apk's from several roms and noted that they do work or are compatible with different roms. This thread in no way seeks to minimize the hard work of those developers who have included Rotary Lockscreens in their roms, but only seeks to stir up the creative juices of others who may want to share some of their work. Thanks!! Credit goes to Whitehawx & Hoey2011 for making this possible on our devices. Heres hoping that they will continue to bring their creativity to this thread along with other themers and their themed lockscreen mods.
Thanks to Whitehawx for getting this working on our device and shout out to Hoey2011 for these Lockscreen themes and Brick'd, RobZarzecki and others who supported this. More to Come in different colors and flavors! Stay Tuned!!
Hot Screenies
1st waves of morphs compliments of Hoey 2011. Flash with Metamorph and should be all good. NOTE: The star wars mod may not work after you apply this but the other 5 lockscreens work without a hitch. This is the 1st wave of morphs and all glitches that are found will be worked out accordingly. Whatever theme you are using should not be affected as shown in screenies using Danny Doans Theme with Hoey2011 themed Lockscreen with Rotary. Enjoy and Be on the lookout for more soon!

Yo RobZ im going to post a couple of framework apks and possibly a couple of those setting apks that we discovered works on particular roms just to get it started a little im still contacting a few people to just make sure its ok. Thanks to brickd he okd to post his saturated grey rotary framework and going to check with others also. Its nice to be able to change out lockscreens according to personal pref if compatible. Imagine if someone could develop a lockscreen changer this would be the business!
Hello everyone! Hmmm where to begin. I have done a little poking around regarding adding additional shortcuts to the rotary. I for one would like to have it show missed calls/texts on the center piece and you swing one way or the other to shortcut to it.
Something another dev in the fascinate forums PM'd me about was using the rotary to answer/decline calls. That would be freakin awesome. I'm going to be investigating this as I think it might actually be easier to do than what I said above.
Jcc, I like your idea for an app that can change out colors/themes/ect on the lockscreens. I'm going to do some talking with Roman later to see if we can't work something out for this (he's the java/app expert ).
I do have some other lockscreens I'd like to port over, including the multilock from CM and the iFail...err... i mean iPhone slider lockscreen. No promises on anything though. Anywho, its time to vape!
Whitehawx, I am using Axura 2.3 and when I flashed it the rotary lockscreen didn't appear in my list. I flashed it again and themed it with Gen x red and it still didn't show up. I wanted the rotary look so bad that I found the one attached in the market. Its called GOTO LOCK. If you look at it, I can roll the arrow to the right and hover over sms (my handcent) and it will preview my messages and the same for phone calls and my gmail. It also shows the number of each if any are waiting. Allows me to customize background as well. On the box up top it allows me to silence ringer, vibrate or turn ringer on and a few more gadgets as well. I think if you could incorporate something like this into rotary it would take it to the next level!
BTW...any idea why the rotary lockscreen didn't show up with the rom?
Thanks.

Hmmm I am unsure why the mod would not work, but doesn't Axura 2.3 come with the rotary lockscreen already? Flashing my mod should work, but you would lose all of your theming, ect. Seems odd that it wouldn't work though.

I dont know. Strange. Right after I flashed and went to into settings, display and unlock screen, it only shows the 4 options. Rotary is not even there. I didnt want to lose the theming from my Gen x red theme so that's why I downloaded the one from the market.

Hey guys, I made a little mod of the rotary lockscreen for bionix V 1.2.1, based on the GingerBlue theme. Therefore, when you flash this zip, you will have a blue themed phone, only for what framework-res touches. There are no changes to tw-framework, so that apk is not included.
This is a clockwork flashable, and it clears your dalvik cache, so it takes ~3-4 minutes to reboot after flashing it. I was a bit worried because of how long I was having to wait after flashing, but then I realized I have 200+ apps, and that makes rebuilding the dalvik-cache a little time consuming. Screenshots included, here's the link to the mod:
http://www.4shared.com/file/ryMYzZYU/HoeyBWRotary.html
If there's enough interest in this sort of thing, I'll take whatever lockscreen ports there are to handle, and make them customizable for our Vibrants I'm a themer, not a coder heh heh
Edit: I suggest trying this with a black and blue theme, because that's what I designed this little inspiration after. the jog icons are black and transparent, not black and blue like the screenshots suggest, it's just the blue smoke from the wallpaper.
I added a space wallpaper to demo a little better the way it looks
EDIT #19390487: I will consider making these theme a Metamorph simply for the possibility of avoiding replacing the entire framework-res.apk . Metamorph may make it possible to avoid the time-consuming flash/dalvik-cache wipe process I am using now for the theme. Then again, everything has room for improvement, including this mod! Keep in mind, this is a *rough* draft of an idea, and the idea was made specifically for me. If you don't like it, then throw up some suggestions. I will give folks a run down in a separate thread from this, so you can have an idea of what I can change and the effects it will have. That way, this thread can stay open to new *actual* modifications, rather than just aesthetic ones. So basically, I am going to take what progress comes from here, and theme it to gooey goodness. I have a simplistic stylistic preference, but you all may not!
Where exactly are lockscreen-containing files located within the ROM?

Edit: I suggest trying this with a black and blue theme, because that's what I designed this little inspiration after. the jog icons are black and transparent, not black and blue like the screenshots suggest, it's just the blue smoke from the wallpaper.
I added a space wallpaper to demo a little better the way it looks

Where exactly are lockscreen-containing files located within the ROM?

Hoey dang that lockscreen is sweet!!thanks for joining the discussion. I'm going test this baby out. It looks Great. Please feel free to Share some of your Lockscreen mods. That's why I started the thread because I believe themers such as yourself as well as others could post the hotness!
@ Oxirane It's either the Framework_res.apk or The Setting.apk and using root explorer you can copy it in systems/framework directory and if you use the setting.apk you can copy it in Systems/Apps folder. It's funny though because I've discovered that on some roms the framework_res.apk file changes the lockscreen, and on others all you have to do is push Settings apk to Systems/Apps. Maybe someone could expound on it for us. Make sure before you push any file with rootexplorer on your phone. SAVE your original files so that if something goes haywire you can just recopy those files as it will give you back your original look before the push. You could also just flash a rom with it already on it also. Hope this makes sense! Chime back if it works for you.
Update: Unable to download from dropbox its giving a error message. Could you post the Mod here in the thread. Thanks.
Hey Community,
Ive been hearing some buzz around for getting some theme's ported over so I decided to create my own. This is based off of White Chrome and Simply Galaxy themes with some additions. I have added in some SteelBlue additions and the battery from MortalKombat v6.1. I've applied it into the SpeedBooster.zip from the Simply Galaxy forum.
You can check the forum here -----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=973208 and thank explodingboy70 and Simone201 for their hard work Also further credit is listed there.
I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone. If you are unsure then do not flash!
This is only confirmed to be working on Simply Galaxy 2.7 I have not tried any other ROM's and with it being part of the Speed Booster package I wouldn't think it would work but if someone finds one it does work on I will list it in this post.
I have been running this for 48hours now and the only issue I'm seeing is the email is getting an end process error. I am unsure as to how to fix but I'm looking into it. Everything else works as it always has.
So here it is....
Speed Booster with theme

Icon Images for White Chrome is attached (You can use desktop visualizer to add them to home screen)
Feed back is encouraged would love to know what people think and new tricks to make better!

OP updated. New file should hopefully fix email issue. Also a little more theming. Trigger version being tested now. Once verified its working I'll add to OP
I've been wanting something like this that we can flash over any of the latest Cm7 versions with the status bar softkeys (from mad-murdock).
So I just threw one together myself.
This is a CWM zip file that you can flash with clockworkmod and will replace the soft key icons in CM7 with the honeycomb ones.
Thanks to:
The Cm7 Team
Phiredrop for his phiremod cm7 stuff
nfcrockett for uploading the icons from the SDK.
coldboot for inspiration
Please Note: This does not work on the current batch of nightlies, and I will not update this particular mod until there is another cm7 final release.
If you wish to do so yourself, feel free to use the icons from the apk

Install Via CWM - All warnings apply, if it screws something up - not my fault
Worked fine on my nook.
Changelog:
4/18 Gtab/Vega Users update: The Gtab/Vega version should now properly install on Gtabs and the Vega - I have not been able to test this (and the guys in the Gtab IRC were less than helpful) So I need some feedback on this.
4/15 Phiremod Edition:[/B] This should be able to seamlessly flash over phiremod without losing any of his themed elements in the notification bar. Big thanks to phiredrop!
4/13 v1.3: Changed the notification pulldown shade to be darker (less transparent) for people having issues with it.
4/11 v1.2: Made a new search Icon from scratch - let me know what you guys think!
4/11: Top should now be working, I also edited the search button background to match the rest of them. I had forgotten about it, because I dont use it. I'll try to whip up a more honeycomb-esque looking one later.
Feedback is welcome/appreciated. Screenshot attached.
looks good mate. cheers!
It does look really good.
I use status bar on top alot, especially when using nesoid, or when my daughter is playing on it. So if you would like to make a version that changes the icons in both modes, i'd really appreciate it.
Thanks, yeah I'll update it to work on top as well. Should be up later tonight when I get home from work.

why not use cm7 official? its got all of ttrc2 with bugfixes
Thanks for putting this together. I really liked the HC look. If only the launcher was functional.
Thank you for this. I was planning on digging through the framework folder but this saved me the trouble. They look great. Now if only I could figure out how to change the order of the buttons......

Looks great, but i do see one oddity - the search icon is noticably lighter in background than the rest of the icons.. almost like search was in a selected state. Its not, but it looks a bit wierd. if you could fix that, this would be perfect!

Hahah.. doh! I guess that would explain it. Then my i officially change my request to making a search icon (if nothing else, just modding the existing one to be darker)...
These are fantastic!

I will, just haven't put cm7 official on yet.
These look great! I'm glad you shared them.
Great job, thanks for making the changes thus far, the icons look really good. I especially like that the icons have no background image and they are just "in" the status bar. It looks alot cleaner that way imho.
Very nice work! I like using the "Cyanabread" theme and having the "green" in the Notification icon kinda throws things off from an aesthetics perspective. I would like to have the icons bigger, like when I was running HC, but that is a CM7 thing, I think.

They can be made bigger. They ended up coming out a little small when I was resizing them. Personally I like them how they are though.
Thanks for this man. I think personally it goes better then the stock buttons, because they look built-in, instead of just literal buttons. No offense to the stock button designer!
Mobile link has been fixed....
O.K. Boys & Girls. Here we go. This Theme was made from Simply Stock for Simply Stock. If you flash over Simply Honey 5.1 you will meet Odin! If you download and/or flash this and you get a paperweight...you knew the risk...
Much Thanks go to Explodingboy70 & Perka.
there is very little ICS in TS II yes, like everyone else there is some.
made mild changes in music.apk "colors blend better"
still working on the gmail.apk, launch icon changed.
DID NOT really change systemui.apk...maybe in an update?
anyway there are more .apk edits. some are done some are not.
If you did download Twisted Stock 1.0 then download Twisted Stock II...I did make some updates, I can't help myself...
download.................................
Flash through GREEN RECOVERY
reboot.....................................
leave comment..........................
hit thanks

Bottom line is this: If you want a theme, GET TWISTED!

Sorry... I had Issues with first .zip file....
P.S I really try to keep these short and sweet. in doing so I may leave something out... have questions just ask...
You wanted screenies....here ya go.

I just slipstreamed Twisted Stock II files in to Simply Stock and the only annoying bug I have found is that the battery isn't 1% intervals. For instances I have 83% battery and the battery icon is stuck on 100. I like some of the new icons you have introduced but I would recommend changing the wifi icon on notification bar. I find the wifi word in it distracting and cheesy looking. Maybe just clean up the wifi icon and remove the wifi word. I would also prefer the colored segmented 1% battery. This circle one looks cheesy. The phone and my files icons definitely needs replaced with something cleaner and more professional imho. I would also like to see all transparent menus as we as transparent dropdown notification bar and blue notification widget buttons. I really don't like any of the dropdown widget icons either. They don't look right with the theme and make it look cheap and scattered. I absolutely loved the icon sets from splash of color and vibranthd themes. If you could integrate some of those and the changes above you would make this the best color theme ever. By the way the roboto font from ics looks amazing with this theme and all other roms and themes. Of course all of this is my opinion and I'm anal when it comes to themes. I really appreciate your hard work and I hope you consider my opinion. Have you thought about doing a full ICS clone theme with accurate segmented or honeycomb battery. Now that would be beautiful! I was running cm7 with ics cm7 theme v1.2 modded with honeycomb accurate battery and ics lock and is beautiful and smooth on the latest cm7 nightly with robotic font. I'm glad google got away from the ugly gingerbread green and went with that blue color!
