A pair of glasses?
So you mean that on this theme section they have 2.1 rom themes? Where?
you're right there is a lack of themes around here. but i came across a good one by opasha. its pure sex
I also just finished a port of my Ice Crystals theme for Eclair ROMs
I'm not sure but probably because most people aren't running 2.1 since it's still in test phases right now there aren't a lot of themes the themes are made by people who use the rom and want to make it look better. Most people stick with stable so there's more 1.6 themes than 2.1.

Hey I was looking for a new ROM on my new G1. I would like something with a nice digital clock widget, a messaging widget, and just many downloadable widgets. My brother has Hero on his G1 and I love, the only problem is that I don't like the fact that if you slide it up it just freezes... So are there any somewhat similar to Hero but can slide?

As of right now, no. This is because the actual Hero doesn't have the keyboard, and so when you slide it up, it tries to force Rosie into widescreen which it doesn't support, ergo, the crash. You'll just have to live with it. However, Drizzy has been making some progress with that and has actually gotten Rosie to run with the keyboard open though it crashes and then reloads Rosie when you open the keyboard. He said he'd look into it more so follow his twitter for more info.
EDIT: Forgot to say. Hero ROM's are the only one with a messaging widget. You can download the Digital Clock widget from the market for a small price. I don't know the name of the widget exactly, just do a search for it in the theme section, it was mentioned in there a few times i believe.
There aren't any messaging widgets like the one on the Hero roms. You can download ANY widget to any rom though, just search the market for widgets and see what you find. Hero shouldn't freeze when you "slide up" whatever that means, if your talking about the keyboard when your on the home screen that is because they don't rotate, only in programs. If you mean some other type of slide then most likely your brother didn't do a proper linux-swap partition or it is to small. Anyway you need to just try the different roms and see what you like best, also some themes offer extra widgets and features but remember you can get any widget to any rom, just not the Hero/HTC Rosie widgets because HTC's stuff is closed source so we can't port it.
Ok thanks guys. So can I have the original and like non experimental link to hero. I use to search box and only find mods of it, and I guess I am just iffy on the mods. Anybody mind giving me the link to the newest and best quality ROM for Hero? Thanks In Advance

The modded ones are the best ones. The unmodded original is veryyyyy slow compared to the new ones. I would try JACHeroski 2.1 or MoDaCo 1.51 are both fast, stable choices.

All heros are technically "experimental". I haven't messed with the new Drizzy. I'm still putting JacHeroSki 2.1 throught it's paces. I can recommend it. There are people who like each of the different incarnations of hero.
What I suggest is going to the DEV section and read. Decide on your own. Hell, you can flash them all with switchrom. Have some fun and learn some cool stuff.
so good roms

Switchrom for the win. Seriously.. haha Yeah JACxRom is pretty decent. But as far as hero have you tried HERO2 - Freedom of choice? If not I think you'll be impressed. I flash FoC when it was first released and it wasn't anything to write home about but now? Dang.. it's fast. Wicked Fast. Try it out!

Why is no one really theme-ing any 2.0 roms...ive seen the xRom theme but i think thats it
...am i missing something?
There are a couple of them posted on AndroidOverdrive.com
since some of them fill up the /system partition on a G1 to 97% it makes theme-ing them a little difficult.
oh alright...
the ones on androidoverdrive are xactly what i was looking for nice clean themes
thanks! but if anyone knows any others id still be glad to check them out
there is only one theme on that site for 2.0 rom so what ones did u find?..let me know
There are a few, my Ice theme I ported, cloverdale themed it also.
Could you be more specific on where you found 2.0 themes because i never heard of eclair rom or any of that other stuff..its a bit confusing because i dont have a custom rom installed and do not want to risk it as of yet..that ice blue theme didnt work on my moto droid?..

Eclair and Droid are different. The Ice is made for standard screen sizes, it wouldnt work on the Droid being a higher resolution. It changes the drawable-mdpi, not hdpi, so it would only apply a few changes.
I am currently running Super D, and I've been looking at the top two Eclair ROM's and seem very good with all the features they have. I just have two questions. Which one of them is better? Cannon202 or XxKOLOHExX? And does the Nexus One use Eclair? Because I was watching a video of it Youtube and the default background wallpaper was like moving boxes and you could touch the screen and the box would make an animation. Is this possible on the G1 with one of these ROMs? Thanks.
hey there trunks!
and yeah, nexus uses eclair. The interactive wallpaper is called live wallpapers and the eclair roms have that!
I dont have any experience with those roms, i use open eclair and kings eclair
IMO open eclair is the better of the two, just wait for 2.0 its going to be so SICK
Since u running super D, you might u disappointed with the speed of these eclair roms around. but for speed i recommend XxKOLOHExX version and for stability cannon's and openeclair both are great..
Thanks for the responses. So basically OpenEclair is the best all around ROM ? And will I have Live Wallpapers? And wassup asb, lol.

In a word...yes
Nice, but I see no download link for it. Are we waiting for his upload?
I'd like to Root my eris for THEMES and customization option .. but I see nothing in this section ... Is there anyway to get some of the other themes to work on the eris... Do the other Roms work on the Eris??
From what I understand (which is very little) themes already created would have to be ported over to the Eris.
I've tried a bit with metamorph, but for lack of knowledge, I haven't had much luck other than changing a few images.
I would love if someone would come up with a theme for the eris, but I guess it's a waiting game for that.
theres several...

There are quite a few if you check around. Some based of the sprint build others based off the legend and Eris build granted you have to to some digging and testing but they're out there.

Daneshm90 made a sweet computer app (only for Windows ATM) to take the PNGs from one theme or rom and transfer them to another, easily and effectively theming the new rom with little effort. Right now you have to make sure that it is MDPI type stuff, so no higher class phone themes will work just yet. I think he might be finding a way around that. You can still grab themes from lots of phones like the G1, Hero, etc etc and you can use 2.1 themes for Froyo roms and such as well. I made a Buuf themed Cyanogen Tazz rom and a pink themed CELB Froyo rom for a friend that was from a 2.1 rom. So far so good... Did not have success with using Droid roms as they are HDPI. Soon though...soon... lol Feel free to stop in that thread and say thanks or ask questions. He seems quick to answer and be helpful. Since I have done a few (hey, failed ones count, you learn what NOT to do...) I might be of assistance as well. Enjoy!
