FROYO ONLY
CM7 users can manually push the framework-res.apk to their devices
See the change log in the next post for changes
Official name changed is happening
Due to the fact that Clean and Theme rhyme and I always feel silly saying it in my head, I'm changing the theme name to WretchedBlues. Blues, because the primary color is blue. I'm already picturing some fun names for future modded themes, such as WretchedLove (Red) and WretchedEnvy (Green), etc..
So what's in the theme?
Pretty graphics (of course)
Ubuntu fonts
Color Settings app
Modded Vending (currently only for the MDPI users, but this will get updated in the next day or two)
This is a themed framework for those running on Froyo. It is a complete make over for both MDPI and HDPI density settings. For those of you who are new, you view screenshots at the theme's webpage.
What mods do you include?
A Straight up theme with no mods
Thanks to brianf21, we now have a status bar on the bottom of the screen. His mod also adds a home/menu/back button and fixes FCs on known apps (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=999214)
I had one very determined person hound me about the Volume +- mapping mod. I've inlcuded a package for that as well
***you must revert back to standard WretchedBlues before flashing this version!***
What's new in this version?
All themes are Flashable via Clockwork Recovery
Should work on all DPI settings
Completely new look for the HDPI version, while still bringing over some of the MDPI elements (quality increased to suit the HDPI display though). Things that have not changed are limited to buttons and text fields. I felt they looked good enough so why go changing them
Ubuntu fonts
I've removed every mention of the word "phone" from as much of the framework as I can. No more "Power options". It now reads "Nook options" and "Your Nook will power down".
Added a new look and feel to all pop-up windows.
New spinners
Semi-transparent notification pulldown (again, thenk Fuzzy_Dunlop)
Added a revert for Sweetened
Plus more

Changelog
02/07/2011
added the CWM flashable update.zip (http://jjis.me/froyo-clean/update.zip) file
corrected the text color of the "clear all" button under the status expanded menu
attempted to alter the color of the png for the activity status bar, but don't like the new color either
02/08/2011
Corrected the black text in the extended status bar notifications. I had to change the backgrounds to a lighter color since I can not control every app that will post notifications.
Notification headers now have a green background to tie with the green icons in the status bar.
Activity header background color has been altered to eliminate banding.
Altered the progress bars for those who were not happy with the over use of blue (and I agree after using for a few days). I've altered the bars to match the colors of the list select items.
Included the themed Market 2.2.11 so the icons in the status bar tie in better with the overall theme
I made the status pull down a little bit darker (depending on the number of request, I'll make the status bar darker as well)
That's it for now. If you guys have color suggestions for the progress bars and notification header backgrounds, let me know. I'm open to ideas. I'm trying to limit the number of colors I use though, so nothing crazy. It still needs to tie into the overall theme.

Updated the updater-script for CWM. It will clear the Dalvik Cache in hopes that it will free memory of left over files. There was also an issue in Froyo 0.6.7 where an extra framework folder was copied to /system/framework. The new script deletes this folder since it is not needed. I'm also clearing the old framework-res.apk, services.jar, Vending.apk and bootanimation.zip files before copying mine over. Again, hopefully this will clear up any performance problems people were having. I've looked at optimizing some more, but after comparing my files to the stock Froyo framework files, mine are actually smaller in file size.
Pulled the Vending.apk from the Gapps package being used for Froyo 0.6.6 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=917660). I've been using it on my Nook and haven't had a problem with it at all. Seems to work well.
02/11/2011
Color icons in Settings
Set status bar to black
Extended status menu is now black to match
Custom menu selection background
02/25/2011
Added HDPI from Galaxy S Cognition ROM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tovif0oZxUs
Changed the boot animation to the new Nook Color Red Blue animation http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952188&highlight=boot+animation (thanks Chuck6993)
03/02/2011
Finally got the back button issue fixed
Removed all mentions of the word phone and replaced with NOOKcolor (e.g. "Your NOOKcolor will shut down")
03/13/2011
Softkeys version: semi-transparent notification menu added, graciously, by Fuzzy_Dunlop (yes, I will apply to the non-softkeys version as well)
03/24/2011
Officially dropping support for soft keys mod in version WretchedBlues 0.1 and older. Too many bugs with it and this was not something I supported
Added the new modded status bar. This mod moves the status bar to bottom and adds a notification/home/menu/back button. It also fixes known FCs that were in the old version. Thanks goes to brianf21 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=999214)
Made all versions compatible with DPI settings
03/25/2011
Corrected the framework strings to remove as many instances of the word "phone" where applicable. Should now read either "NOOKcolor" or "device" throughout the framework.
Changed the options menus to be semi-transparent black with white text to match the status bar better.
03/28/2011
Introducing a new versioning system. The status bar mod will have a version number matching the date of brianf21's updates. This may change once he gets his mod to update without having to alter the services.jar and framework-res.apk files. For now, though, my version number will match his release dates so you guys will know if my theme is up to date.
Made the status bar background solid black
Increased the contrast of the status bar buttons.
The options menu now matches the status bar a little better
03/30/2011
Just a minor tweak to Sweetened to remove a density setting tag
Updated unModded to 0.1.3 (black status bar, better looking options menu)
Added a revert for Sweetened to go back to unModded
04/14/2011
Finally got off my lazy butt and updated the Sweetened theme to brianf21's 4/10 update
I've no additional changes, hence no update to unModded
Upcoming Changes
make the options menu seem more integrated with the theme in 0.1.2. It was a quick hack and I'm not too happy with it. Just doesn't seem to look right compared to the status bar
Can anyone think of anything else?
installed successfully on 0.6.6 and seems to be working just as advertised. aside from a typo in the instructions - "adb push clean-services.jar /system/framework/serverices.jar" everything installed smoothly. good work!

Oops. My coding habits coming out there. I apparently type $_SERVER way too often
Thanks for the catch. It's corrected now.
Beforehand, thanks for your work and development on the nook
Now, is there any chance of incorporating the Menu and Back button mod for the Status bar into this theme?
Original thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932631
I know there are quite a few of us early Froyo(emmc) adopters that use this mod instead of remapping the vol+/- hard buttons.
Looks amazing. Is there any way I can add the softkeys to this theme? They are featured in theis thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=932631
I am afraid if I push them over your files it will mess something up and not boot.
Awesome them though!
I will have to look at that apk and see what changes they've made. I haven't used it yet so I'm not sure what will happen. If it looks like it's something doable then I can put together a framework with and without.
Normally, I use Button Savior in the market as work around for you for now.

Already installed I was using the button mod for the volume keys, but I found it was more convient to have the volume buttons with the keys on softbar, with button savior as a backup for some misc things. I kinda liked that better. But again awesome theme!! Is that Zegou UI you are using for the font? I dont know anything about theming, but I am decent with photoshop.If you send me the pngs( I assume thats what they are) I would love to make a red/black verison for you to recompile back into a theme.
Excellent work, will test and post any bugs!
I'm actually going to post the PSD files as soon as I get them cleaned up. I need to edit the layer names and file names so they match the file name of the PNG they're replacing.

is there any way to fix the notification pull down? It's always scaled poorly (doesn't stretch across the screen). Perhaps some xml file in the framework somewhere?
I have managed to get it fullscreen before by messing with lcd density, but it never seems to survice a reboot
Installed without a hitch! It looks great. I will post a screen of my set up, after I tweak a few things.
Nice work!

I am looking into this. It's not in the XML files. They all read "fill_parent" so there is something else I'm missing. I'm starting to think it's something in the jar files. As soon as I have a fix though, it will be posted.
W00t the only part of stock I missed was the blk. Installed fine on eMMC, happy to get away from froyos ugly gray

Looks like I missed a minor thing. The Clear All button in the status expanded menu is white text. Should be black. I'm working on the flashable zip so I will include the fix when I get the update.zip working.
Unfortunately CWM doesn't want to play nice with me so the update.zip is taking longer than I wanted.

I don't believe you can yet. Just for kicks I tried installing it by using Root Expolrer to replace the files, and it put me in a boot loop. Terminal Emulator might work, but I haven't tried.
I'm wondering if it's possible to add some custom actions to ICS softkey bar... On my tablet would be nice to have next/prev/pause music always visible even in navigation mode with sigic or igo at full screen. Any hint?
bump
found many hints to change color, but no to add custom functions...
I'm also interested in this.
I want to make the menu softkey persistent and tried editing SystemUI.apk (XML and Smali files) with no success.
Can someone help?
Hi all.
Is it possible in SII to change status bar icons order. I want to have time on the left side etc.
Should I install some additional stuff ?
Thanks for help.
Some roms allow you to centre the clock or remove it via an additional menu in the settings.
Things like ROM control on aokp, TSM parts possibly J-Kay's mod.
Ive never seen the clock being moved to the other side though, not in all my android years.
I also wanted to move signal icon into the left one.
Now all the icons are on the right side and it doesn't look good.
I need to install cyanogenmod ?
Hi, i'm getting this issue while editing systemUI.apk. I've already read that part (on a xda thread) on how to decompile an apk.
I want to edit Miui.us 2.10.12 ROM for i9023 (nexus s) to get the clock in the middle of the status bar and change its color, so I decompiled MiuiSystemUI.apk, opened res/layout/status_bar.xml and edit, like several guides say (like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1730388) , recompiled the apk, substitute AndroidManifest and META_INF from the original apk, with this result: now i had clock in the right position, but it won't disappear when a notify arrives and i can't really get to change its color in values/styles.xml
Anyone knows how to make clock disappear and change its color?
thank you, sorry for my english
Hi,
Got a question that hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. I want to edit systemui.apk to remove white bars and notification quick settings bar as seen in my attached pictures.
I know how to decompile apk and all different stuff just need to know what changes are to be done inside SystemUI.apk - or where it points to these two?
The issue caused by my phone having a "stock" android 4.3 with some additional changes made to it.
I want to remove quicksettings all together (Don't use them) and change the bottom "clear" all bar to transparent so it doesn't colour blend.
Want to make the notifications black / transparent as well so they don't colour blend.
Could you please assist?
Thank you :highfive:
Tiny bump, no one no? I can upload a copy of my systemui.apk if that would help?
