I made this theme with the ladies in mind but, it's certainly also for men if they'd like. its a purpley pinkish theme based on my myst series of themes. If you guys/gals have any suggestions/comments let me know. I had to personally color a huge amount of images I also themed some widget/apps the same color. It came out nice so please feel free to donate
Huge credit to nitsuj17 as the green revolution images and his themed apps were the base of in which i purple mystified.
Included superdark transitions/animations thanks to thatdudebutch.
also credit to sbrissen for the accurate battery and reboot options.
and credit to dtachd for the text removed from the dropdown icons
other credit to Manup456 retrokid223 for the statusbar icons
thanks gimp for helping color the images fairly quick
and thanks theme kitchen for the battery.
small update: fixed a bug where the secondary purple menu text stayed blue

Would it be possible to get a version without any purple text? Im not sure how much more work that would be.

i wasnt saying you didnt do a lot of work
i think you've also gotten the wrong impression about what i said. i never said "credit me for everything" or anything like that. i just wanted to make the point that if you use someones theme as a base (which we have all done at some point) just remember to credit who they credit for various mods or the source work
its a learning process and ive forgotten to do so myself at various points in time. its not the end of the world, but something in the android world that is important nonetheless.
you've clearly put a lot of time and effort into this theme and it shows...and its not something to give up theming over by any means at all
its clearly not neccessary to thank gimp

Thanks. As you know I am new to this, and I apologize. I do realize now that giving credit is very important in the android world. I just wasn't thinking about it at the time of this post. Of course id like to thank everyone and everything but I wasn't thinking it was neccessary.
Anyway, I did my best fixing it. And I wanted to inform you that's its not a big deal and this deffinitely isn't the reason I'm retiring from theming. I just need a break. Dealing with a lot of stress and pain atm for a variety of reasons. And it tends to make things worse than they actually are. Ill be back in the future. Especially if we get cm7. Again, your work is amazing and ill be sure to give proper credit for the future. I didn't mean to cause a commotion here.

Hi! So there's just one minor thing I found that's not quite right with this theme. Hitting the menu button brings up the options for menu, wallpapers,edit,add,etc. The text on those options is cut off at the top. Otherwise its great, here is so much purple in it! So nice to have something suitable for the women

What's up guys. I should have taken the advice of a wise old man(Teh Dust) jk lol when he suggested a couple days ago I make my own thread. Anyway this thread/theme/skins are a work in progress. If its seems like I am all over the place with this stuff, its probabaly cuz I am. My thread maintenance skills are sub par, but all you guys care about is the good stuff right
With the exception of the BTC2 & Twitter widgets, the base of my work has been focused on Rosie colors. I will try and maybe create nuetral themes(whites,blacks,greys) so that they can be interchangable with Rosies you may find here. I welcome anyone who wants to share their custom skins to go ahead and post here for all. Just tell us what version Rom you pulled the .apk from so we know its compatibility and to avoid posts asking where it came from.

*****************************
So here is the lite Neon Hero theme for JACxHEROWSKI v1.4. This theme is EXPERIMENTAL as it still needs some testing. IT IS NOT THE FULL ROM. I have successfully flashed it over JAC's Rom without any problems. FOR BRAVE SOULS ONLY!!!! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!! The theme will delete data on /system/sd so make sure you use BACKUP FOR ROOT USERS or apps of the sort to backup all your important apps/app data/settings/contacts etc. You will have to go through the setup again same as when you flash new roms
Directions:
1. BACK UP ALL APPS/APP DATA YOU WISH TO RE-INSTALL
2. Place on root of sd
3. reboot into recovery
4. NANDROID BACKUP!!
5. *****DO NOT WIPE*****
6. apply either as update.zip or use the any zip flash function
7. Reboot

**************************UPDATE 8/20/09*****************************
IamLugo said:
Alright, I could no longer wait for a Hero template so i decided to put my smarty pants on and create one myself. The end result, is a working lite Ice Blue hero theme(not the full rom) that SHOULD be able to be flashed over Drizzy's Who's Your Hero roms. I label is experimental because its still needs to be tested & its a work in progress. I have successfully applied it to Drizzy's ChampionV2 rom without any issues. The theme zip will clear your app_s,app, and dalvik cache folders the same way if you were to flash a new rom. And upon reboot you will have to go through the set up. I havent figured out a way around this as its coded into Drizzy's hero roms, so for the moment it will have to do. I created this to try and make theming the Hero an easier process, and if they're arent any major issues hopefully it will be a breeze from now on and put things on the fast track. Any brave souls want to try it out? but use at your own risk. If you have issues please post and let me know and if you are able to flash without problems on different roms also post here.
I hope other Hero themers can work with me if there are ways to improve the Hero Theme template/update script. I have reached out to Hero devs but they have enough on their plate to deal with. We need this really bad. The method of flashing below was the only way I successfully flashed without bootloops
Directions:
1. BACK UP ALL APPS/APP DATA/DATA YOU WISH TO RE-INSTALL
2. Place on root of sd
3. reboot into recovery
4. NANDROID BACKUP!!!!!!

UPDATE: Ice Blue JACxHEROv1.1 8/17/09
Alright so here it is. Not much to say other than enjoy, and post feedback. A FULL WIPE, EXT partitions and all is recommended to avoid bootloops. Nandroid backup to be safe. I will be holding off on the Drizzy FullV3. I ran into some issues during testing. Mainly apk/odex issues. The Mms.apk was acting a fool. And so was TouchFlo. I need to redo a couple things and it'll be released. But after testing, I do believe that most JACxHerov1.1 apks are compatible with the Who's Your Hero Roms. Use at your own risk!
**This is a Full Rom, put it on the root of your SD and flash!**
Also to other themers, you are more than welcomed to use my work. I encourage it . If anyone wants to try and port my work to other Roms, feel free. But at the very least give me a shout out. That much would be appreciated.
This theme is still a WIP, because there are still a few things to touch up. But as is im sure it should satisfy. This is my first Full Theme that has been shared with the Community. Much has been taken, now I give a little back. Thanks to all the Devs who lead the way! Anyway enough talk, screens:

edit: minor fix for 3G icon that I missed below
IamLugo said:
Here it is, a temporary fix for the blacked out 3G icon in the status bar. I missed it the first time because it wasnt in the framework-res folder where the other status bar icons were. It was in the resources folder by itself, strange. Anyway here it is, you can push this through adb or terminal. It worked for me without even having to reboot. Will be fixed in the next update

HELP NEEDED FOR A CUSTOM ONE-OFF ROSIE
***8/14/09 5pm
Okay so I'm working on a new design for a Rosie and I can't seem to find where the "Phone" .png or .xml is located. This Rosie is pretty much done. The Hero logo in the middle replaces the old middle tab button as the action button. Also I need if somecan to either edit or find the file that moves the red sliders position. I tried to contact Diaztradeinc because he has something similar in his Blues/Dark Red themes but I haven't heard back from him. If some can either send the file or even the Rosie.apk from that theme I can just swap it in. If I can finish this Rosie, I will be able to build from this and possibly come up with something else in the future. Anyway heres a screen shot, tell me what you think
When Pressed
Edit: Just realized I might swap splaces and make the white Hero logo the default rest tab. It think it'll look better reversed. Off too continue working on the theme. Hopefully ill have something completed this weekend.
Oh and a New Transparent Light Blue Rosie can be seen here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4330396&postcount=28

Okay guys. I just got home and ill be working on the BTC2 pack for a couple hours before I head out to see District 9 tonight . I already have a few more widgets done. I even touched up the color placement on the Twitter widget. I even started messing with the framework so anyone who is a fan of the BTC2 will probably like what I've come up with. Just have to fix a couple things with these .9.png files. Anyway I should be uploading files myself from now on(hopefully) to make it a lot easier for you guys.
I haven't looked yet, but if someone has a theme template for the most recent JacxHero time it would be a lot easier to put an update.zip together. Let me know.
Sick. Sick. Just plain ill.

changing the color of the loading circle to darker red...not as dark as maroon but a lil lighter than maroon n darker then red...and could use the same color when u click on any app...may b the image below...i dont really have the greatest graphic program but may b something similar to the color below as the loading circle and stuff...also if u wanna test something c how the application tray would look with the background the same as the wallpaper and the where it says "All Programs" could b change to the same color as the loading circle
these r all suggestions...u can try it out and c how it looks...i'm trying to get into the whole development/cooking of the ROMs and modifying icons for apps so if i get somewhere i can probably explain it a lil better hahahaha lol let me kno wat u think bout it
I see that nobody has made a Super Mario theme for the Epic. Lately I have been messing around and trying to learn how to theme and decided I would try to make a Super Mario theme. I havent done much and I have made a few icons for the status bar and what not. (as you can see I am using the honeycomb fusion theme and just changing icons here and there until it completely transforms into a completely new theme)
Here are some screen shots...

I know the time on the lock screen is messed up (I will be changing that tonight) and the status bar I am either considering making the clock text and the battery text black.. or maybe changing the color of the entire status bar... since its hard to see the battery text..
I am mainly making this for me and to get more experience with themes... So I am also wondering... would anyone else like to use this theme? Should I continue developing it?
What does everyone think?
looks sweet! one request I would have is to have the notif. icons a little more cleaned and polished up.
Nice! Keep up the good work...
I'm trying to learn to Theme, too I hopes of making a Simpsons Theme...I've been swiping icons from Hit and Run PC game in hopes of using them...I've been reading the threads and looking youtube videos...I welcome any input and suggestions.

This is just on the edge of awesome, OP. The notification bar needs a little work, but otherwise, very cool. Would love to have this on the EC05 framework-res, so it's compatible with SRF1.1.0.
I think this is looking very awesome. Hope you keep going with it.
Dear OP,
I love you.
Love,
DevinXtreme
P.S. Keep up the great work.
This is cool and look forward to it up and running fully on bonsai 4.0.0
Very nice work!!!
This will definitely be awesome. Have you made a flashable zip yet?
I'd definitely use it. I already have my notification sound as mario jump sound. This would be so awesome.

This theme is awesome. I would be all over it.
Agreed with many that this reeks of total awesomeness. It definitly needs some work/polish, but for saying it is your first theme, you are coming along very nicely! Everyones first project needs some polishing work Regardless, I agree with the others that the notification bar needs some work. I would definitly encourage you to keep developing this theme though, and when I get some spare time I'd even be willing to give you a hand on certain things. Great job so far man keep up the good work!
Also, IMHO if it were my theme, I would make a koopa shell battery icon, like a top down view. The current battery is just too hard to see. Just have the %age number inside the shell. Blue/Green/Yellow/Red colors change for battery levels. I think that'd be a neat idea.
Also, maybe if you used the SMB1 Lvl 2 (The first dungeon stage) Brick texture across the notification bar, that might make all the other things and the clock more readable, since it's a nice Dark Blue/greyish color. Again not trying to tell you what to do, just saying what I would modify myself If I decided to use it Other cool ideas incoming after my brain generates on this at work some haha.

whoa thanks man.. i appreciate the ideas.. ill get working on different versions of the battery icon... but i dont want to keep getting caught up in revising things or making different versions of something (like the battery meter)..i polished it up last night and it took quite some time (since there are around 202 images for it (including the charging icons))..
ill definitely try that texture for the notification bar... i was wanting to keep it looking like the 'status bar' for SMB3... at first i tried the light blue color and it turned out horrible..you could read anything really... then i tried the secondary color (the beige that you see) and obviously you can read stuff..just not that clearly (the battery icon)... SMB3 was revised and had updated graphics in the Super Mario All Stars game, and the status bar was changed to a darker hue of blue... which i could try to use and it should make the text more readable..
i do want to try to keep it looking like the status bar because thats where all your information was in the game...
i am definitely open for ideas...im still kicking around ideas in my head for the wifi signal icon and the 3g...i have ideas for the 3g symbol...just need to put it in photoshop and do the work... but for the wifi... yeah...i dunno about that one yet lol..
if anyone knows what the image name of the 'call lock message notification surrounding box' is, that would be great (its the box that surrounds the mail icon on your lock screen (where you drag down to view the message))
I was trying to find it last night but gave up lol
again..suggestions are greatly appreciated... if you have any ideas/thoughts about the status bar icons, just drop me a line and ill take a look at it.. im going to really try not to get caught up in revising the same icons over and over again and not doing anything else to the theme.

This will definitely be awesome. Have you made a flashable zip yet?

I do have a flashable zip that you can flash with CW3..but its just a rough one... i mainly took the honeycomb fusion flashable zip, put my icons in it, and renamed it to a different name.
This looks really good. I love the stars and the notification really doesn't look that bad. I like the coins and the number next to them. The shells are a cool idea but I think may be better for wifi or signal strength. I think black text in that notification bar would be better than changing the color of it as well. I would certainly look forward to trying this out once your comfortable with how it looks. Keep up the great work!
Can you make one with just the starite stars
I like your theme but I don't like change
I'm sticking with stock theme plus starite stars if possible

morbiddevil82,
This is really cool. I'm not even that big into SMB or putting themes my phone, But I would kick the tires on this... kick them real hard.
As for Ideas they are endless, put the best ones that came to mind would be to change the beautiful widget weather icons. Change the sun over to the Angry Dessert Sun. The clouds into the clouds in the background of SMB 1. When its raining it could be that guy that drops the spike balls that crawl around. The moon could be a ghost.
I like the Battery icon as the coin counter.
Still working on this.. have been very busy with other things this week... I'm kicking around ideas and stuff for the dialer and trying hard not to screw up the dialertabactivity.apk lol. Ill post a pic soon of the dialer, when I get back to a computer

Here is a theme I've been working on for the last few weeks or so. It's built over top of the Paragon rc6 Blue Theme that was originally made by eSPyeL and then themed blue by Bentonhall. Nearly everything in the notification bar and dropdown are completely originaly work by myself. It also features a new bootanimation that I put together.
I assume this would work with other ROMs (Paragon rc6 is JS3 based). If you try it on something else, please let me know if it works or not. I can also work on ports if there's interest.
My main hope was to make something somewhat different than other themes (so it didn't look like a copy) and to make all indicators very obvious (boxy). I wanted something simple and clean looking but still be visually appealing. I personally liked it, so I now share it with you. Hope you enjoy!!!
If anyone has suggestions for later versions (colors or variations on icons), let me know. I don't intend to theme any apps (I'll leave those to the actually good themers ). I hope to later release a "Rectangular Red", "Orthogonal Orange", and "Gerpendicular Green" (if someone's got some better names, I'm open to suggestions ). Let me know what colors you'd want first and I'll try to satisfy the masses (assuming there's more than just me interested in this theme!).
Changes:
1.1 to 1.2
Newer dropdown button icons (cleaner)
Black notification bar
New pulldown menu bottom
Updated themed dialer
Themed Settings.apk
Updated Go Launcher Theme (v2.1)
1.0 to 1.1
Themed unlock screens
Newer dropdown button icons
Removed text under dropdown buttons
Themed dialer
Several tweaks to the notification icons
Go Launcher Theme (Made some icon backgrounds--5 random colors--see screen shots. You need to have Go Launcher Ex for this to work.)
Future Changes?
Themed Contacts
Boxy Blue Theme v1.2
Screen Shots in the second post!
Thanks goes to:
eSPyeL for the ROM/theme this is based off of
Bentonhall for suggestions and putting up with my constant questions!

Theme update
Due to the lack of responses to this theme, I've tried to spruce it up! I've re-done a lot and added some more elements.
Please take a look and I'd love some feedback (again, please be gentle since this is still a work in progress and the continuation of my first attempt at a theme)!
For those who care, I just posted an update to the theme. There's a good chance I'll move to a different ROM since Paragon is stagnant. Perhaps I'll get with the times and try out one of those new fangled gingerbread ROMs.
Again, comments would be very welcome to let me know what I've done right/wrong. I still plan to theme whatever ROM I use (at least for my personal enjoyment), so I'd like to know what others think.
I just tried downloading the update, I couldnt get the link to work. Could be my browsers. I did try on a few and nothing. Awesome to hear its updated, that was quick and ill be sure to test it out if I can get it downloaded. I to will be movin on as other roms arise. But ill always find my way back to Paragon some how, hope for an update in the future.

I just tried the link and it's acting a little goofy for me as well. I'll repost a new multiupload link here in a sec.
On another note, I've been on CM7 the last few days and have enjoyed it. I would like to try to make a theme for that. We'll see if CM7 feels as stable as Paragon has been .
Alright, try the link now.
Very nice! It's good to see more options out there so we can dress up our cappys.
Alright I got it, will be testing it out soon. I just know it will be good.

I could work on one. Which GB ROM are you using? It might take a little while, but I'll get it done. I want to try my hand at a CM7 theme, but since they use the theme changer, they're a bit different (anyone have experience making a CM7 theme apk?).
Also, if you like the theme, would you mind bumping up the thread rating? It seems someone hit it with a 2 star rating without leaving any sort of comment why. It can be a little discouraging.

What's up CapnPez, hey I use CM7 and just wanted to pass on that there are also themes that are in zip format and can be flashed from CWM3. While the theme Chooser is pretty sweet, there are other flashable themes as well. Just wanted to pass it on!

Thanks, that's cool to know. Do you know if there are any limitations to the theme chooser (things that can be done through flashing a zip but can't be done with the chooser)?
I'm also assuming that a flashable zip theme from another GB rom would be incompatible with cm7, right? (so making a zip cm7 theme wouldn't help for making one that would work with, say, gr-12 or something?) I'd like to make a chooser theme apk because the huge convenience when using cm7.
I'm still learning with the newer stuff (not that I'm a master of the froyo stuff), so I might need to spend some time on the q & a section .

I'm not sure. I know the developer of the matted blues theme wont make an apk version for theme Chooser..and I'm not positive but I think it has something to do with the updates and compatibility. And yeah your right, you could probably get away with a Ginger theme for JVB because a lot of gingerbread ROMs use that..however, CM7 is completely different and would probably need a different script or whatever.

Hi all!
I have recently been playing around with the Sense 2.1 + Gingerbread (aka GingerSense) ROMs, and had to of course port (and improve) my original PCB Sense Theme from days ago. I have been testing it myself for quite a few days, and I'm finally happy with how it turned out, so I wanted to offer it up to all GingerSense XDA users.
Couple of things to note:
This design was meant to be close to stock for those who actually dig the Sense scheme, but want something unique
The file is a 7.7mb signed .APK created using apk-manager 4.9 for Sense 2.1...I may make a Sense 3.0 port if there is enough demand (need to play with .m10 editing still)
It is installable on HDPI devices only by simply copying to your device and running, and is uninstallable by Titanium Backup, or applying another Skin in Sense, and highlighting PCB Sense, then MENU --> DELETE...it doesn't appear in "Settings --> Applications", but why would you want to uninstall it anyways?
I have edited a poopload of images with utmost care and attention to detail including those precious draw9patch ones
The tricky thing with the draw9patch is to have a pattern get 'stretched/repeated' without looking crappy...I believe this may be one of the few Sense themes out there which attempts to skin >90% of resource images (I may be wrong, but still)
I tested (and approved of) this theme on my Desire (Bravo) running LeeDrOiD v3.3.1 and InsertCoin GB
The font used in all screenshots is "Ubuntu", however "Storopia" also compliments the skin nicely
The font used to make the custom clock widget is "OPTICBOT"
This theme took me about 55-60 hours to complete
I've seen some other mods/ports of my theme before, and while I am a believer in sharing and caring, it would be nice if you asked/PM'ed me before using my theme for any other purpose than your own enjoyment. I'm a nice dood, I promise, and it's good to give credit where it's due!
If you'd like to buy me a beer, coffee, or any other kind offering to say thanks, it's greatly appreciated and I will thank you personally... (Donate link is in my post profile)
Anyways, have a look at the preview images below, and please leave your thoughts! I hope you enjoy it!!! (Oh, and keep an eye on this thread for updates)

Select your desired colour to download:
PCB Sense Green (7.7mb)
PCB Sense Blue (7.7mb)
PCB Sense Orange (7.7mb)
PCB Sense Pink (7.7mb)
PCB Sense Purple (7.7mb)
Note: If you're downloading on a handheld browser and the file is saved with a '.bin' extension, simply rename it to '.apk'
if you like it...that's up to you!
Credits and thanks to some of the resources used go out to:
The modded wallpaper is originally from iTeppo (on deviantART) titled "Android Chip Wallpaper" (he did a great job!)

Heya retrosling, if you mean when you are in the "Phone" app, then yes, some images may not be fully skinned, but this is a limitation of the HTC Sense Skin .apk format itself. Note that there are no flashable .zips needed to use this theme, and that should allow it to be installed on multiple devices (with Sense 2.1 of course).
To skin many other components means that I would have to build a flashable .zip which modifies 'framework-res.apk', 'com.htc.resources.apk' and 'SystemUI.apk', and since these are based on certain ROMs, and can therefore be unique, I chose not to go that route for this theme (the logistics/maintenance of handling all bases/versions/ROM-specific customizations for these 3 .apks would be a nightmare of time consumption!)
Believe me, that I skinned nearly every single PNG that would allow it. The only ones missing (for now) would be for landscape support. Once we start getting more GingerSense ROMs with landscape homescreens, I will be adding them though. Good thing for updating is that you'd just have to re-download the .apk (same exact link/filename), and the .XML file defines that it's a newer version, then your phone should ask you if you want to update it. Super clean this .apk Skin route.
To everyone else who offered your great comments/feedback, thank you very much!! It's great to see others enjoying the benefits of the hard work it took to put together this theme!
All the best.
Just tried this on Robocik's v1.2 a2sd cm7 hboot and it does not seem to work.
Have I missed something?
Amazing.
I will say that I have allways found the backdrops you pick very distracting and make the icons hard to see, but then I am addicted to the glactic core live wallpaper - you should try it with the pcb sense - it really ties the screen theme together!
One thing I miss from the old PCB theme is the green circuit board buttons, but then I am sure I will get used to this... (see attached for what I mean)
perhaps an option in the future?
Again, Thanks!!!
Warmly, Marty

Hey ericb, thanks for trying this out on RCMix v1.2...I am not sure why it didn't work for you, as it should be in MENU --> PERSONALIZE --> SKIN. There is nothing specific relating to InsertCoin, so maybe it didn't install properly? Did you get any errors when you clicked on the .apk from a file browser to install it?
Only other thing I can think of would be to "Allow Unknown Sources" in SETTINGS --> APPLICATIONS, which might allow it to install since it isn't a pro-signed .apk.
Let me know though, as yours is the first report that it didn't work

Thanks Marty, this one was for you Anyways, I understand about the wallpaper/backdrop, but one NEEDS to be included in the .apk, and I figured people would pick their favourites anyways. I will also check out that galactic core LW that you love so dearly
I hear ya about the green PCB traces in my old theme version, and I went with grey this time because I wanted to make other colour versions overall. This would give the theme more consistency across all colour mods, since when you press those buttons, they light up green (and in the future, /blue/etc.).
Nothing's impossible though, so if I get a chance, I may make a classic version like that. Otherwise, if you REALLY want it, you can PM me and I can .zip up the files from the old theme so that you can drop them in this .apk and reinstall it...
@scar45
Just checked again and it had loaded ok.
Must have been impatient first time.
Looks really cool with great detailing.
Just need to work out how to change the top and bottom bits of the screen to match your skin.
Currently it is black and doesn't quite enhance yours.
I will feedback any problems.
Thanks for your reply

Hey Scar,
Well I slept on it (1.5 hours sleep last night, I am going to be a mess at uni today)
and I have to say I do prefer the one with the green buttons -
It breaks up all the grey a bit, and matches really well with the green traces on the clock.
So I would love a green version if you can make it.. - and I can imagine how cool a red and blue version will look too -
You should sell your theme to HTC and get it included as standard, make some $$$$ its very geeky and DIFFERENT from all the other themes that just look the same.
Warmly, Marty
ps: I will be making a donation in the next week or so, but don't let that influence you in any way.. (ie its not a bribe - you bloody deserve it!) HOWEVER please don't spend it on smokes mate - I have lost both parents to cancer a few years ago, and we just buried my partners mother who also died last week from lung cancer. - only telling you this cause I care ok!

Wow Marty, that's a hard-hitting factual story there, and I first my send my condolences to you and your partner as well. Losing someone to cancer is absolutely horrible, as I have had similar experiences in my life (although thank God no one in my immediate family). I promise you I will never squander any contributions that people send my way, as I really use it to help me stay living in my home and eating food Times are tight, but the joy that one can get from these types of devices is very much worth it.
I will definitely whip up a 'traditional edition' for you and anyone else who wants to download it though, as soon as I get some time (blah blah, broken record on my shortness of 'time' I know )

Sorry to be unclear.
I am talking about the top notification bar and the bottom button bar.
Would be nice to be able to colour match to give a seamless green colour to the skin.
This Skin is the ****! Incredible Work!
Can you also make a Sense 3.0 Skin?

Thank you, its appreciated mate. You are a gentleman and a scholar.
By the way, do you have the framework you use for all the notification icons battery mod etc?? Are you running the CM7 version?
Would love to use it - if I start mucking around in the UOT kitchen, I will never leave - too much choice.
Awesome - thank you! First theme I am actually going to install.
Running on IC CM7 v20, btw.

OK, till I update this OP fully, u can grab the latest test zips of 'Eternal Blues' here:
For r116-no trace keyboard (not my fault):
http://db.tt/ATymItCo
And for earlier builds -with trace kb (arrows):
http://db.tt/q5DKZT8b
....And here's the older theme for SynergyRom; Synergy Blues
****DOWNLOAD****
Get the latset test zip here:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2902746
[...ntions.info/modules.php?name=Downloads&cid=15 (updated last 9/9/11)
****the DOWNLOAD button is on the bottom right of each window...
***Reminder.... There are currently two versions; the Standard (circle battery), and the Stock-Style Battery version (rectangle).
****for dak181's mods, go to his section four posts down****
This is a full theme that's ambition is simple; turning all instances of color thru-out the entire ROM, including many common user apps, to various shades of blue. This project will be on-going; as I get better at theming so will the theme get better. I make no claims of complete originality, as some images have been swyped from other themes (if u see ur work, please claim it so that i can credit or pull it) That said, most work is my own (in as much as modifications of someone else's work -HTC's- can be called ones "own" ) I also need to thank Gunthermic, whom I continue to bug daily with my incessant questions, lol. Thnks gun! Also can't forget about TommyTomatoe, whom has helped me tremendously in the last two weeks. (Thnx to him I can again edit .9.png's, and xml's as well) Also bad4u6669, he's also helped me on many occasions (actually this theme is kinda inspired by bad4u's work on Epidemic ....thnks bro!) .. ***Edit: thnx to bad4u6669 I am now able to theme all of Sense (.....as long as he keeps building my mods, lol!) ...and last but not least a special Thnx to McLabia for giving me a hassle free place to host and advertise my work. I am very, very grateful brother!

There are 2 versions. The standard theme (w/ Black Dropdown) and a stock-style battery version (also w/ a Black dropdown) The Standard is the one with screenshots attached. It should be the first one and says simply 'Synergy Blues [theme]'.

dak_181- (the earlier version of fusion.apk, 'Synergy Blues' update script -the first one. Early "Blues" wouldn't have looked right w/out your work bro)
gunthermic- (ongoing, advise, guidance and patience ...i always go to gun 1st)
tommytomatoe- (constant advice and patience. Special Thnx for your great theming tool; 'android Utility')
McLabia- (Server provision, always super helpful and patient ...in a MC kinda way, lol)
bad4u669- (very helpful! Now all APK's containing m10 files are built by bad. Sense would barely be themed w/out his contribution)

roscoenr- great XML advise. Super helpful!

Good job dude ! This looks sick and thanks for the alternate battery I prefer it.
Later when I flash the 8-12 build I'll see how this works.

Heads up this installs and everything seems to work on 8-12 build of synergy aside from HTC calender widget it seems to have nuked it entirely lol.
I installed the stock battery version.
CANNOT wait for that sexy drop down.
Any luck doing the menus? Like when hitting menu from homescreen and other menus like for gmail?

Lol, cool, at least its just the calender. I'll look at it in a bit.
Yeah, I'm at a stand-still with that dropdown. I'm just waiting for some bright idea ....or gunthermic to figure out. I gotta talk to him again.
Wut about the 'menu's? U mean the getting all the icons to match? That's proven to be one of the more challenging things. I've themed all those icons that those should be drawing from.... Ima take another look tonight. I'll definitely get them. Just takes time ....it bugs me too. I think its just this new Sense. I'll ask gun.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Or do u mean inverting them like the I plan to do w/ the dropdown? Cuz that's actually next!
That's why I haven't been working hard to make all those icons match. They'll need changed anyway for the dark bg ....coarse I plan on doing two versions of those ......like most things so I'll havta to both anyway
.....yeah, I still got a TON of work to do!
Haha I can only imagine the work involved, i'm sure its quite intense.
I was referring to when you hit menu and all apps, notifications, personalize, wallpaper, ringtones and settings comes up in the little "6 spaced grid".
Sorry probably have terminology all wrong ! Either way I know it takes time, just excited about what's to come because this adds alot of class to this already nicely themed wrong already on 1st revision.
BTW I tried messing with both htc calender widget apk's and couldn't get it to work again.
Not that I know much beyond moving things to system/apps and changing permissions lol.
That looks Stoopd SECXEE Bruh..More Blue w/icons, Contacts and Dialer pad would be ideal.

Try pulling 'Calendar.apk' from the theme zip and reflash. U won't notice a difference without that one anyway. Just put on ur desktop, open with 7zip, go to /system/app/Calendar.apk and delete.
If that doesn't work ...or u just don't feel like it, I'll have an update soon. By morning prolly
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
U can also delete 'htccalendarwidgets.apk' and possibly HtcProfileWidgets.apk without noticing a diff. I'll put updated versions into the next update
I'd try deleting the first two calendar APKs first, but like i said, ill be doing that ltr tonight or this morning.
If u just delete Calendar.apk and report bak ull potentially save me a bunch of work ....but I know it sux waiting thru whole that flashing so if u just wanna wait, that's cool too

Thnx bro. Yeah I've got some other things slated first ...like finding all instances of green, orange, etc. and eradicating it, lol ...then just getting all buttons and highlights smooth like the one in the dropdown. Then I gotta touch sum more widgets
.....and finally, I'll be doing variations on the theme, with one being sumthing very similar to wut u suggest ...just remind me down the road. But in general, yeah more blue is on the way

Yes, I know 'where' u mean. I'm sorry, I don't understand 'what' u want done.
I'll say this: I plan on making both a dark and light version ....also one with blue highlights; dark or light, I haven't decided ...maybe both. I also may make completely different icons rather than modify the existing ones.
If u guys can be more specific as to what u'd like to see in the theme, then I could better accommodate u.
If u all are something u like in another theme that u'd like to see here, please try to provide screenshots or links so that I see exactly wut u mean. I can't say whether I'll use it or whether it'll be exactly the same. I like to make things my own, but I'm also not one for changing sumthin just to be different either. If there's no room for improvement, then I'll keep it as-is.
And if anyone has work that they've done that they think would look good here, please post it and I'll see about incorporating it or atleast adding as an add-on
Just something darker really, I love the black menu from cm7 and from DH, it doesnt have to be black though.
As far as the calender widget I think I already tried everything I could do apk wise in an attempt to fix it. It's no biggy though man, I can wait

No, I just fixed it ....hold on a min, I don't like the color tho. I'll post it in about 45mins
It's just a new 3d cal, that's all
See here its up n workin:
I'm decompiling now so I can change some xml's to get it all blue. Either the red in the calender picture up top is controlled by an xml or its not in the apk ...either way, I'll get the little bastard
