Since I got my Arc, the blueish theme has annoyed me, so I decided to make a monochrome version (I called it All black earlier).
* HTC grey background in all views (se screenshot below)
* All grayscale frames
* White and grey progressbars (thanks to AdamTt for pointing me in right direction)
* CRT-off animation (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109363)
* Grey dividers in phone and music
To-do:
* Change selected text background from yellow to grey
Tested and works with .145
Suggested widgets:
* Minimalistic Text
* Simple Calendar Widget
* ADW Launcher with TextIconCreator for ADW Theme
Note:
SemcGenericUxpRes.apk, SemcMusic.apk and SemcPhone.apk is compressed to Other.zip
For framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk:
Move to /system, set permission, then move to /system/framework
For SemcMusic.apk and SemcPhone.apk:
Move to /system, set permission, then move to /system/app.
Thanks for the nice release! Look awesome!!
I've a little comment/ suggestion that is that possible to have the % battery icon in white color? If it's possible this is just perfect!
also another little request, can you also add the reboot option as well as the crt screen off animation..
Mind uploading the background seperately in a .jpg or something ? Cheers

Hi,
I haven't had the time to look in to it yet, but I very well may.
But please, feel free to enhance my theme - and when you do, don't forget to share

Hi,
the background is a common HTC background and is available for example here:
http://www.android-hilfe.de/attachm...wallpaper-fuer-das-nexus-s-htc-pattern_31.jpg
Cheers. I've been Googling it for 20 mins last night to no avail
how do you change the image that is behind the dialer ? and the one behind the settings ?
would like to know more so I can start playing with my own images, can you show me where to find them ?
I can find them but replacing them doesn't work

I'm using the CM from KalimochoAz, and it's working very well.
I've noticed that in the standard theme (Androidian) the status-bar icons are 25px height, but the status bar itself is 19px.
So the icons are rescaled and appear very blurred and almost unreadable (expecially the 3G one).
I have cropped all the png for status bar (extracted from Androidian.apk) to 19px, but I'm not able to repack them into a new theme.
Is there someone that can do that? I attach the images to this post, in case someone wants work on this issue...
Edit: i've repacked them into a new theme, there are probably some other icons to adjust...
Edit 01/03: other icons added
Edit 03/03: new version - gps icons fixed
Edit 08/03: this theme: Crispy Bread is more complete and resolves the same issue
Bye.

Ok, I've just repacked it in an apk theme.
I dont know how to specify that's a LDPI theme, so choosing it theme manager pop a warn: you can do "Apply anyway" and go on.
I've actually been wondering about this blurryness myself but this certainly solves it! Works really nice
Thank you!
New version with other icons cropped.
Some icons appear gray instead of green... this update fixes it too?
Hello, I use your apk and this theme : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943423
Really nice, together it's almost perfect, but if you know well android can you help me.
I changed few things in the apk, all worked well.
But I want to make horizontal lock bar in lockscreen looks invisible (they are grey translucide in CM7).
I modified the files "jog_tab..." but nothing changed.
Have you some clue?
P.S: With the honeycomb theme the lockscreen bar looks invisible when someone is calling, it's real nice.

Uhm... the icons are extracted from framework-res.apk of the cyanogenmod 7, some of theese are gray (for example the usb or the headphone one).
This theme only fix the blur effect due to the icons scaling from 25 to 19 pixels.

Little upgrade - 20110303
I am using gallery to select icons but the icons are black (and alpha transparent the rest) and completely non-visible in the gallery.
I am looking for any kind of Gallery replacement (best if can attach to the system gallery calling action) where the background is customizable or at least is not black

Edit: Sorry I just noticed the black blackground thingy, that probably won't work sorry
I think floating image can be configured to work like a gallery...Not sure though, but background colour is changeable.

@3rdstring: indeed I tried that one and it had just black background
@iinga: thanks but just tried and no go, it is not processing PNG files properly (no background transparency here so all I get all black floating squares) :/
so still looking for one app that can do what gallery does but with different background color ....

You can change the background to white in JustPictures!
It just has rather uncomfortable and not always working system of choosing image for external usage.

Quickpic or Gallery+
I think I just found the answer...
In QuickPic>Settings>General, choose Use light background. You'll need to click on the individual icons in order to see them against the white background.
The other way that "works" for me is to give the icons memorable names, and "view" them in a file manager, such as root explorer.
Hi,
I would like to use some icons for lock sliders using Widgetlocker, but I would like to change the default icons slightly. Basically I want the backgrounds on the icons to be different. Unfortunately I have no experience with Photoshop or any other graphics program.
The default dialer icon has a grey background (please see attachment). I would like to change it to the red background (also provided). Then the email/messaging icon I would like to have a yellow background exactly like the one shown behind the mute icon (I couldn't find that background alone without an icon on it already).
If someone with a bit of know how could please do this for me and upload the new icons. I have also provided some other icons as examples of other icons that have already been done with these backgrounds.
Thanks in advance
I ported my Black theme from NottachTrix4G to CSROM v6.9 (a lot of work!).
What I changed (vs. the base CSROM):
Changed QuickLauch Toggles (eliminated GPS, Data, & Sync) - I never used them
Changed Status Icons - Alarm Clock, Bluetooth, Signal, Mobile Data Type, Wifi, GPS, Vibrate, Airplane Mode, Signal, Battery (different color for each 1%), USB/SD/Memory, & Download/Upload
Changed Spinners
Changed the Dialer (to Grey)
Changed emoticons to Blue
Changed Power Menu Icons
Changed Default Wallpaper (to Black Ballistic) - go into the wallpapers menu and chose "reset to default" in order to see the new wallpaper
Changed Lockscreen Background to Transparent (so your wallpaper will show thru)
Changed Lockscreen Sliders to Semi-Transparent
Removed (visually) the clock and alerts from the portrait lockscreen (I did not like having 2 clocks and all that wordage on the screen)
Restored the "No Notifications" on the extended status bar
Changed Landscape Lockscreen to LARGE Digitial clock and visually hid the sliders (good for use in the standard dock)
CSROM Theme - Black
Upndwn4par CSROM Theme - Black
http://www.mediafire.com/?zdz1hd3hvz3reg5
.... and here is an "UNDO" button for those that would like to revert back to CSROM style without having to reinstall the ROM (you can flash this the same as anything else, it just reinstalls the orignial files of everything I changed)
Upndwn4par CSROM Theme - back2original (v6.9)
http://www.mediafire.com/?i1ux81568xyf7ah
To install:
1.) boot to recovery
2.) install from zip
3.) reboot
Awesome work!
Very nice work.
Look into the restore file; I think that there are two files missing: BlurAlarmclock and Blurphone.
Both are 0 bit
Regards
Nice work on the themes!

Are you asking for my personal input? Or are you asking for the input from other Atrix owners using CSROM?
If you are asking for my personal input, please send me a PM. If you are asking for input from other Atrix owners using CSROM then my suggestion is to create a new post in the "Questions" section requesting input for theme ideas for CSROM.
Good Day
I have a set of Black icons that I would like to use to set on my Themer icons - but when I go to Edit an icon and try to pick one of the black icons - I can't see the icon because the background of the CHOOSE ICON window is black.
I haven't seen a place where I can change that background color - Is there a way to accomplish this?
Thanks

Hi!
Thanks for pointing this out! An idea would be to change your wallpaper to a much lighter image, then revert it back to the original (found in the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/Themer/prefs/ folder). I've let the developers know so hopefully something can be done soon.

Thanks for reply, i tried setting it to almost fully white...
it does help a little - but its still very difficult to make out.
