Could someone theme the lockscreen for cyanogen 7 for me? I just need a completely transparent sliding lockscreen with perhaps a small white arrow.
I know this is possible with widegetlocker but I'd rather do it this way. Less resource heavy

Have a look in N1 theme section...you will find a lot of nice themes there, even for the sliders...

Just like the subject says.
I am now running the leaked Gingerbread on my Droid X
I know when 3.4.2 was leaked it, the notification window was not transparent, and someone manipulated services.jar and then the transparent png in framework-res.apk would then show truely transparent or to the degree of transparency we wanted.
The lockscreen on GingerBread is slightly transparent, but not enough to see the wallpaper that is selected.
Does anyone know what controls this? Is this also located in services.jar?
I would be extremely grateful if I could get some assistance on this.
On 3.4.2, I combined the water-marked theme, Blueberry theme, and much of my own work and had my phone themed to my personal liking, and would like to complete that for GingerBread as well.
The non-transparency of the lock screen is bugging me and I bet i'm not the only one.

transparent level can be changed by changing background png.
try UOT kitchen http://uot.dakra.lt
My idea is to create a high contrast white theme, with pure white notification bar and pure white menu popup, and all pure black icons. (i got inspired by HerrKuk's screenshot)
The reason for this is that we're on an lcd device (and black doesn't get black).
When being on the amoled nexus one, there was a strong urge to get everything as black as possible, where as on the O2x, white would be the most battery friendly..
Stock android 2.2 is leaning towards that, but i just do not like the greyishness of stock.
Try SiMi clock with black text and white background and you'll get an idea of the final look that I'm after..
But, the framework needs black text on notification bar to get this theme on stock or paul's rom. I do not know how to do that.
I guess from vanilla rom it would be a walk in the park because it would only need the gray png's tweaked to white, but the handy power widget control for the notification area is not in vanilla android, and I cannot live without it.
Can anybody help me out by either porting power control to vanilla rom, or by changing the framework text on paul's rom to black?
That would be awesome

lol, 18 months ago we were working out how to change the text to white to use with black notification bars on stock Android...
It can be done, you need to make changes in framework-res.apk xml and services.jar code.
Know how to use apktool (here and here) and smali/baksmali (here)? That's where you need to start.
Once you've got that I can show you where... you'll need these skills if you want to do deep theming anyway.
Sounds great!

Cheers mate, I'll look into it and see if I can get my head around it..
I would like those skills, I just need the time to learn them..
Since I'm impatient I will do up an simple version based off the vanilla rom to start with, and then see if I can do the xml and jar edits for the black bar later
I would personally like to see something like this. I don't mean with windows logos in it, but something less harsh than stock honeycomb. One idea I would like to see and i'm not sure if its possible but a semi transparent menu bar at the bottom. If anyone is interested I could test it after I root my wifi xoom. Also if anyone has any ideas they'd like to see in a windows inspired theme drop them in here.

are you gonna make it ??? or are you wanting someone else to make it?
We need the AOSP to drop so we can have an updated smali/baksmali for apktool before any changes can be made to the SystemUI.apk, which defines the status bar color. I can't even change the clock color yet, which is frustrating.
A transparent status bar would be nice, actually. Better yet would be a status bar that went away when swiping down off of the screen, and returns when swiping up from off the bottom.
I couldn't make the theme, that is why I put it as a request. I haven't the slightest idea where to begin. I put the thread up to see if anyone else felt the same way I did about the stock appearance of honeycomb, it's a little too...digital? I kinda like the colorful icons and aero theme that windows has. I don't want to see a windows theme per se, but something that has elements taken from windows 7. Just my thoughts and ideas.
I'll start by saying ive went thru all 80+ pages of the widgetlocker theme thread and didn't see this in there anywhere...unless I accidentally missed it.
I am using widgetlocker obviously and would like to have the rotary lock slider that I have seen in the "rotary revamped" screens from the CM mods. Maybe it already exists and Im just not sure where to get it.
Its similar to the stock android rotary slider included with widgetlocker....but more of a solid silver in the middle parts with black borders on the edges.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Nada?

I'm trying to configure the Rotary theme in Widget Locker. But I seem to only be able to configure the first 3 buttons. When I rotate it to configure more, it just keeps rotating all the way around back to the original 3.
Any idea how to configure more than 3?
Emotion UI cuts icons corners to make it rounded (iOS like) and adds background to every icon, even to these with transparent parts. It tries to pick at least similar color to icon, but still it looks horrible with many icons. Any idea how to disable this feature?
I agree it doesn't look good at all. The only way to do it is by finding a theme which allows you to have transparent icon backgrounds. Usually a Lollipop or a Material theme will have that.

It is a Q&A thread and a very valid question which many people will have. Even I had it when I got a Huawei phone and eventually figured out you had to change it with themes. Problem is they don't include any themes which disable that by default. So you have to search the web and look all over just to find a theme which supports icons with transparent backgrounds. It's no easy task and honestly it should at least come with one theme out of the box which allows for icons with transparent backgrounds.
The only solution I could find was running a different launcher. I'm running Nova Launcher and a Marshmallow theme now and this has oddly enough made me much happier with my phone.
