Quick question. Anyone know the name of launcher that is basically made of messaging notifications? I think it has one screen only and on it are only msg apps/widgets(messaging, facebook, twitter...). I remember it has black background with oranger, red colors.
it's ZUNE HOME

Yeah.
Slidescreen is great, for a while. Haha.
I got sick of it after a day.
It's a good idea. But I like theming my phone.

All,
This is my first attempt as modding a theme.. I think I did a good job..
I took the PDVista PocketCM theme with PD's permission and modded the graphics. I also got help from DvTonder to correct the mail icon issue with the newer version of PocketCM.
This will work with PocketCM .21 - .23
This looks just like the HTC Diamond, background, pop up icons on the bottom, etc..
If someone wants to do the graphics over, be my guest.. I would love to play more but don’t have the time.. I spend like a week and change to get things where they are now..
Graphics that need to be done over:
Dial pad needs to be done in gloss black
Dial pad "pressed" buttons need to be done over in gloss black
Menu "pressed" buttons need to be done over with the fancy black diamond theme icon (I included it in the zip).
The icons on the main contact menu need to be done over in gloss black.
This theme has a Greatbal Diamond Look.
Eazy
great work thanks you
guess nobody was really interested..
Wooooooooooooo!
theme now switched!!!!!!!!!!!!!!this gets better and better!
PocketCM
Where can I download the standalone version of PocketCM?
I tried using the search on here but it sucks. It just brings up a bunch of threads for themes.
Thanks!

What do you mean, lol. Hush your mouth, lol. Many are interested. Your theme inspired me to use pocketcm all over again, lol. Thanks and look forward to more of your work.
Edit: I noticed your theme is a large one, almost a 1mb. Which I imagine the larger the file (theme) the slower it starts up. Nice theme though.
It looks sweet. The only thing that I don't like about it is that I can't see the phone numbers on the contact screen without scrolling down to it.
A little bit too dark for my taste, as I was using a diamond theme but with white background, but since this one doesn't have the bugs my previous one had I'm changing now, thank you and good work
Wow! Just downloaded pocketcm and your theme rocks! I'm a noob.... anyway to incorporate the text messaging from pocketcm into the standard texting from spb shell using one of the themes people have posted... (such as diamond theme?)
this looks good
will try it once i reinstall pocketcm --- testing icontact right now - and i dont like it
o nooooooooooooooooooooo!
skin turns aqua blue in letter spaces between contacts.and the menu to close and pick options never fully rises. now i'm sickbest skin for this app i seen yet.
What can I say.... EXCELLENT.
Hello,
I just installed it on htc Touch and the color of the font is BLACK for all contacts. So, I can not see any. The color needs to be set to WHITE. Thanks.
looks nice, thanks man, working on my prophet

I use it on my Mogul and it seems to be fine. It's not so bad on startup and I found that it only uses up about 2 mbs of memory.

Honestly, i got tired of reading the whole text message and could not figure out how to disable the auto show phone number with contacts option and make it come up when you select it in the options. so i just made it black, i can change it and upload two diff copies for you guys. If someone can look at the code and tell me what the option is to give the control back to the options "show contacts with phone number" i will change it.

Thanks.. I will prob finish up the graphics since you all like it.. You may want to try a soft reset... I have tested this on my Mogul only.. I can change the highlighted colors if you really want me to.. but it makes it easy to see.. What about two shades of blue??
hi,
one problem i have and not sure if other has the same. In the option i check on "contact without phone" but it still show phone number. I would like to only show just the name.
I have AT&T Tilt
Thanks
problem with menu that comes up from holding down the far right button. doesnt come up all the way. anyone else have this problem? i would also prefer highlighting that menu in a different color than hot pink. excellent job overall.
Can you change the font for the phone numbers to be white instead of black? Then it would be perfect

this is what i was trying to decribe.i have same problem.also i guess the letter bars between the contacts is supposed to be that aqua blue.i'd like to see that in another color.
I was curious if a fullscreen home screen is possible? Which still included everything on the notification bar. So instead of white or black like alot of themes out there it would be more of the background still including the icons and such.

home++ is fantastic but i think he wants an invisible notification bar with all the icons still there, right?
In which case, people have been trying for ages but i'm pretty sure it can't be done.

Yeah thats what I'm asking. I have a BB Storm 9530 and I was able to make my themes like what Im asking.
People tried to do it before but as soon as you add some transparentcy to the status bar it just shows black in the background. If you 're determined enough, you can colormatch your status bar to the backgound that you use and make it work that way although it sounds like too much work to me.
Good luck.
The main problem with this is that the wallpaper is drawn only to the bottom of the status bar.
The second problem with this is that the wallpaper is drawn by the Launcher itself rather than being drawn UNDER the launcher.
This will replace the Android 1.6 Calendar and Calendar Widget with dark versions.
Instructions:
1.)Download to /sdcard Black Calendar With Blue Widget[/color]
If you are happy with the blue widget, go to step 3, otherwise go to step 2.
2.)Download to /sdcard your desired widget color:
Black Calendar Widget
Green Calendar Widget
Red Calendar Widget
Purple Calendar Widget
Yellow Calendar Widget
3.)Boot to recovery and flash first Black_Calendar_With_Widget.zip, then without reboot, flash the Black<Color>_CalendarWidget.zip (if you downloaded a colored widget).
4.)Reboot.
Is the Widget Black?
Not yet, that is actually another apk. It is in the works though.
Ohoh ight that's cool. So we can't use this to replace the regular Google Calender? And does this app Sync with Google?

Beautiful work fella, well done been wanting something like this for awhile.
Mind if I post a link in Darkstars thread? This would work damn well with it

No, I was looking at the theme thread (and it points to your website), and all I can get is .3 (may be just me though... I am me after all )

Thanks again fella.
Have you tried making the blue header on the widget black?
Would editing "appwidget_calendar_bgtop_blue.9.png" to black achieve what I am after?

That would be quite simple, I kept it blue because me theme is black and blue. The file is in res/drawable in CalendarProvider.apk. If you cannot edit .9.pngs, let me know and I will do this in black.
That would be greatly appreciated.
The calendar looks nice, it's a little dark though and you cant see the current day's date (black on black).
Flashed from recovery. phone hangs after bootscreen.
Hey guys,
I was wondering if it was possible to change the color scheme for my messaging? The default blue/green is getting very old and boring.
Thanks

you can change the colours by installing a new theme... if you dont wanna do that you can download handcent from the market its free and very customisable

Thanks, I checked out Handcent and thought it was really cool. Unfortunately I didn't like the notification system that was in place of the "puzzle piece", haven't found an option to go back to the puzzle piece method but I will keep looking through it

The stock messaging app does not have an option to change the background, you can use a 3rd party app like handscent which has many customization options but thats upto you. in regards to the menu again as stock you cant, it would mean modifying the framework and things like that, you may want to check the themes section to see if anyone has created a mod. Try at your own risk

Yes the Sony dialer and messaging software are terribly designed. It almost looks like they just don't care.
I ended up using Handcent for SMS with the Samsung style skin. I also am using exDialer with a dark theme which looks great and has a better usability. There are lots of great skins for either one of these apps.
