Miui Mix Theme ( Final )
Procedure to install theme
Flash using AOR 3.3. Wipe ( dalvik-cache/cache ) is not required but recommended.
Download link :
With stock statusbar : here
Additional Info
I have not checked this as i don't own a XT720. So people who try this have to inform of any issues which i can fix. If it works properly, it should look like the screenshots above.
I have removed the versions with transparent status bars as they are not working properly.
__________________________________________
Twisted Inception
The port of this theme was requested by JiroPrinz8. Kudos to the original creator of the theme, bp328i of droidforums. My job is just to port it to xt720.
First build is almost ready. There are small issues. Not all notification widget icons are themed. I will rectify it in future builds.
Procedure : Download zip file and place it in openrecovery/updates folder. Flash in AOR. Dalvik-cache/cache wipe is not required but recommended.

Stock Theme
Flashing this should get you back to stock look and stock features.

Whichever's more convenient bud! Any of the popular themes would be great, (e.g. steelepic,miui, etc)
Again thanks!!

Coming up in this order.
Miui -> SteelBlue-> Sense -> Honeycomb -> Revolution -> GingerBlur -> GB Cool Blue
I am skipping stock GB because the rom is already full of green.

Downloading MIUI now.. Will update ASAP.
Flashed the theme, and there are some white on white, and the icons in settings is still TI, (flashed over TI)
Will now try flashing over stock to see if it makes any difference. Attached some pics.
**Flashed over stock, and still white on white on the notifications area, the rest seems to be ok, attached some pics to confirm.

Flash over stock and then report with screenshots.

Hows the phone dialer? As in screenshot?
So white text on white background in notification area is the only issue?

Test Build 2 online
@Jiro
Guess what, i forgot to add the themed apps in the first release. That's why none of the apps was themed.
This build should fix that and the white on white in notification details.
Also, is statusbar transparent?

So that's why it seems lacking something.. LMAO!
Yup dialler is as in screenshot, sorry dumb question, which part is the statusbar..? LOL! Far as i can tell the only issue is the white on white in the notif area, i don't have the date showing that would overlap the ongoing icons, as in the OP, IIRC the date is only showing in CM, or i haven't enabled it if at all possible.. downloading 2nd release.

**EDIT
Ok so just flashed test build 2, and seems everything is now in order, I have themed apps, dialler looks like thw way it shoulkd be (although please confirm, i'vea attached snaps) there's no more white on white in the notifications, the only white on white I see is the USB connected And USB Debugging connected ICONS only, see the pics. Overall looks great man..! Please inform me if i missed anything or you want anything checked.

Testing your themes now friend. Thank you very much for taking the time for us. Greatly needed and appreciated.
***Do you think it would be best to flash to stock first? Or just try it without?

I suggest going to stock first, as when i tried flashing over TI, icons from the previous theme kept on with the new one.

Which launcher are you using. If you install adw and untick wallpaper hack from advanced settings, you will have a transparent statusbar ( the top bar where you get your date/time/data & wifi icons etc ). You can see thru the statusbar. If you have used miui earlier, you'll understand what i am talking abt.
Also is your date shown on statusbar while pulling down notifications?

Oh ok I got it now, no, I don't have the Status bar, as in the pics, the carrier name is the only one there, no status bar icons/widgets.
Nope, no date on the status bar when I pull down for notifications.

---

You should not see your date. That's how the theme needs to work. And you should be able to see your wallpaper thru the statusbar as shown in the picture below. Use a lighter wallpaper. You cannot make out with a dark wallpaper.

---

I just flashed the RC2 stock, I was on your original Twisted Inception for the first Special, and leaves the Twisted inception keyboard. It may just be a fluke since it isn't your updated Twisted Inception. No big deal cuz I like that green themed keyboard I posted to go with RC2 anyway. So now gonna try your new themes.

I get it now, sorry bout the confusion, so I checked and the status bar is NOT transparent, tried installing ADW to untick the Wallpaper Hack, didn't change anything though. Still the Status Bar is solid and is not transparent.
I don't think it's a big deal though, but if it's necessary for the theme, by all means just post a build I can test for you.

I dont know why the png's are not changing. Also i changed all network icons to miui style, but it is still green. I'll take a look later.

---

Ok. Found out why the statusbar is not changing. Its not the themes fault. Usually the statusbar image which is in framework-res.apk is a .9 png ( statusbar_background.9.png ). The theme has this file, but the rom uses a normal png ( statusbar_background.png ). So even if you apply the theme, the statusbar image is not being replaced.
Also found out why network bars are still green. HM has made a lot of changes not found usually in Froyo based roms.
I'll post a final build today.

Great..! Wish we'd know these kinds of things at the onset so you won't have to do more digging, oh well.. will wait for the final build and flash immediately to test and confirm. Thanks!

That makes perfect sense now wish we could have thought of it, since we do know this isn't your normal build with mass changes in it, we just don't know enough about anything to be able to know that lol. Sorry for wasting your time sileshn and thanks for making the unusual adjustments for us.

That's ok guys. I am uploading 3 versions of the miui theme now.
1. Transparent status bar - no date
2. Transparent status bar - with date ( notifications images will overlap date )
3. Non Transparent stock statusbar
As soon as someone checks and lets me know that they all work as expected, i will port the other themes.
Sometimes i get fustrated with things and that's why i was a bit harsh in my comments a couple of weeks back. No hardfeelings, LM.
You know that this is my hobby and i do it because it feel good. And also for a few cups of coffee whenever i get a donation.
