Things to know
1) This comes from my pickings of different Themes & .pngs I've found. I haven't created any of the artwork. As stated above, I've been doing this for my phone. If you find a better icon, post a link and if I like it better, I'll add it.
2) I am not responsible if this breaks your phone. Make a backup first.
3) If you use LauncherPro Notifications & Preferences under the main menu are still grey (See 4th pic below) because these are controlled by LauncherPro, and if I edit that .apk LauncherPro Plus doesn't work <_<
4) The eye background is not included, but is attached to this post.
5) I don't recommend trying to use Metamorph with this. So far I haven't got it to work fully for some reason, but it works perfectly well with ZipThemer. Plus this themes files that will cause a FC loop with Metamorph.
6) If you want to use the clear Lockscreen that is in the last photo you must go to CM settings and select the "Rotary" style, I did this on purpose b/c some people would rather use the "Rotary Revamped" style.
What currently has changes

7/15 Updated BatteryMod and ColorizedTheme files, changed the charging indicators around for a smoother animation. Added new image for the screenshot function (not my favorite, yes I know it’s shifted, but it’ll work for now). Added new fonts, if you don’t like them then download the droidsans.zip below and push them to your phone. Removed the dark themed market so it doesn’t override the new market. Bootanimation copy still doesn’t work. Been working a lot on a steampunk theme, between that and school I haven’t been working on this much.
6/17/11 Added Metamorph capabilities. Recommend using ZipThemer.
6/10/11 Transparent lock arc thingy added...see the 7th pic for what I'm talking about. You have to select Rotary, not Rotary Revamped in the CM Lockscreen Style settings

For someone who has tested for many a few times? Anything my friend. Download this If you just want the arc to be transparent, add the 3 jog_dial_xxx.png files to framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/
If you want the colorful icons on the lockscreen, I've included them too just in case. They are the ic_jog_dial_xxx.png files, and they go in the same folder as above.

I'm sorry you're having issues! Everything should work as I just change the nightly image files around. The wallpaper isn't actually included but I'll attach it to the main thread for you. I've never used root explorer, I either manually do a
Code:
adb remount
adb push Vending.apk /system/app/
or I use Android Commander to drag and drop. I'm sure you did, but did you try fix_permissions and reboot? I haven't heard of anyone else having issues, not that I'm saying you're not, just haven't heard of these yet.

i got my issues sorted. after a full wipe everything went smooth. i am really loving it.
i also use this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13608720&postcount=1114
to switch the SDCARD-EMMC. this way vplayer and every media can be read again by the app.
i worked all day adjusting and reading and fixing. downloaded the launcher pro then removed ithe ADWL " or whatever its called " now my phone is super smooth.
as for the wallpaper. yes please put it as external link here. its very nice.
my question i want to ask you. later on when you release a new version. how can i apply it without deleting all my settings and everything ? just install the update.zip without full wipe ?
Also. just a suggestion. the dailer colors are kinda out of place " not classy as the rest of the nice colors u added" if i were you. i would change it back to normal " the dailer only "
everything else is superp. i never wanted to install CM because like u. i hate black and white. you just made it awesome. so i give you a thank you for your hard work
Interesting thoughts on the dialer. I'll see if there is a non-neon way to go with that when I have time. Thanks for the feedback. As far as your wipe question, I haven't done a full wipe in well over a month and I flash every nightly. CM nightlies do not require a wipe usually from one to the next. Issues are usually fixed by wiping the cache and davlik cache before installing and then doing a fix_permissions afterwords. Oh and don't forget to check the MD5, I've had a few people pm me about bad downloads. And the wallpaper has been attached to my CM Forums post.

Hey that's really nice of you. Thanks man!
EDIT : Argh you gotta decompile the apk, too high above my skill level im afraid oh well. It's alright
No! You don't! It's a pure drag and drop into the .apk I promise, I do that every night. Only thing I have to decompile for is to work on the xml files.
PM me if you need help.
Youtube: Notification animation
A look at things to come I'm trying to find a good animation to put there, so far it's the flames. But we'll see.
Works gr8 on .43 nightly. Just what I was looking for. Thanks.
I think you should post it in Android Development. You would get alot more traffic there. And technically, it IS a ROM

Technically it is a bit of a kang, but I don't think it fully meets the kang criteria. I download the builds from the CM servers, not compile it on my own. That and I'm working towards a flashable zip to flash on top of the nightly. And then eventually a theme chooser app. But that is a bit off from now. I have a lot of free time in August, I'll learn more about it then. When I get the update.zip figured out I'll move to that soon. And like I said, I started by just adding color for myself and decided to share; not really worried about huge traffic numbers. But thanks for the suggestion

Planning on updating to a zip file that requires you to use ZipThemer from the market. Need a few brave souls to try it out. PM me if interested.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
I wouldove to but i am very happy with what you have done so far i dont want to screw things up . I really love what u have done here
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA Premium App
I don't think it's going to screw things up, I think it'll actually help both me and anyone who wants to use it. Because right now if you want to use my theme you have to wait on me to download a nightly, pull it apart, theme it, then re-upload it. And unfortunately I just don't have the time during the week to do this every night. All this will be is a zip file you flash after you download the nightly from wherever. This allows me to have a few different files uploaded so people can use different dialers, just the lockscreen, etc. It also allows me to use what time I take to mess with each nightly to work towards the notification pull-down bar animation. And it's going to allow me to work on a steampunk another theme I have an idea I have floating in my head. I'm not going to implement this if it doesn't work, but basically I'm doing this to give me more time for different stuff, not to abandon this theme.
Will probably go back to the displaying battery % every 5% for this ZipTheme plan. Starting to become a pain in the ass.

These screen shots are a little out of date now
feature / details requests / ideas, post them here.
Thanks particularly to drpfenderson, djengizz, AndroidAppCritic & garok89 for their help along the way, and anyone who threw in ideas that I've neglected to mention.
I've called this 'MarksTheme' because I'm Mark, and I made most of this theme.
I'm not really into the codewriting of it all, infact I rarely venture into so much as an XML, but I do like things to look nice.
I'm a fine-arts photographer by profession, a very visual person, I make and source png's and bring them together in this theme as whatever I feel looks nice.
Thanks particularly to drpfenderson maker of Enoch and EnochX which got me started
consider all releases as Beta, they are stable but may have issues
CURRENT RELEASE = 4.2.15.1 rev C
Previous version of basic theme - 4.2.14.1.a (100% good)

Problems?
If you are asking for help, try and help yourself first.
flash a rom, make sure the rom works, flash the theme, make sure the theme works, flash extras and check that they work.
'repair ext filesystems' helps the 'stuck at G1 bootscreen' thing.
'fix_permissions' can help problems with forcecloses.
clearing caches helps with software freaking out.
Theme problem? reflash the theme.
Still a problem? reflash the ROM, then the theme.
Bigger problem? reflash HTC 1.6, then the ROM, then the theme.
Big-Ass problem? Wipe, reflash HTC 1.6, then the ROM, then the theme.
Holy F*****g Crap? Format and repartition your SD, Wipe phone, reflash HTC 1.6, then the ROM, then the theme.
It's up to you to go out there and find out how to do these things properly.

FAQ's
After installing it's taking forever to boot up - it can take up to 30 minutes to get past the G1 screen sometimes with a first install
My Gmail isn't coming in automatically - clear gmail cache and data, then reboot, usually fixes it
I applied the themed google apps and something isn't working - flash the standard google apps from HERE
It all went to crap and I didn't make a nandroid backup - then you're a muppet.
I've got a problem and I want you to fix it - aint happening, first thing you should do is look through this thread, or search through it, if you have no luck then look in threads for other themes for the same ROM, if that fails then put up a shout in here, maybe I can help, maybe someone smarter than me can help, maybe.
Can you change X? I don't like it. - short answer = no. Long answer = this theme is how I like it, I listen to all ideas and suggestions and maybe I'll change something based on that if I like the idea or enough people ask for it, thats why there are three versions of the lockscreen and no lockscreen in the basic theme, also there are a load of custom launchers. When I have the time I make pretty stuff.
Who the hell are you anyway? - google is your friend, it ain't hard.
I love your theme and want to send you money, fast cars, promiscuous women, etc - Donate link in sig.

I'm releasing two wallpaper packs of my photography.
These packs are in zip files, unzip to a suitably named folder on your SD card and then navigate to the image you want to use in your phone.
Please remember folks that this photography is how I make my living, therefore these wallpapers , photographs and the packs they are distributed in Exclusively By Me may not be re-distributed, altered, manipulated or changed in any way, nor may they be claimed or implied to be the property of or the work of anyone else.
The first wallpaper pack isn't family friendly, therefore you need to click HERE to see the index of images and HERE to download the zip
You may only do so if the laws of the country you reside in say that you are old enough to look at boobs
The second wallpaper pack is totally family friendly, the index image is shown below, and the zip can be downloaded HERE
(Yes, one of the photos in there ended up twice, I can't be bothered with changing it )

These are a few apps that I use and like, no affiliation blah blah blah, some are free, some are paid (c'mon, they're cheap!), search for them in Android Market, in no particular order:
CacheMate clears your cache, either when you tell it to or periodically, sweeet.
Pure Calendar Widget (agenda) the neatest and most configurable I've found.
PowerTime Widget the best chance you've got of predicting how much juice is left in your battery
Advanced Task Manager among it's many cool features is an auto-kill for running apps (with an ignore list), nice.
File Explorer (Quick Finder) for exploring your files, and, erm, quick finding them, I guess..
GDE - The new home experience! that cool cube homescreen thing, you know it, it's sweet dude.
Bettercut custom icons for your shortcuts
Handcent SMS (NEW) the nicest (and now very configurable and customisable) messaging app.
WeatherBug Elite Weather prediction is important in my work, this has sh1tloads of data
MyBackup Pro does what it says
Screenshot ditto
Snowstorm Weather Widget this one stands out because it'd 4x1 can 4 days or split the day into 4 periods, so the displayed weather prediction is accurate to 6 hours instead of 24 (it's gonna rain today huh? when?) see what I mean?
Backup for root users another backup thingy
Overclock Widget keep it nice and easy when the screen is off, then ramp that puppy up when you're using it!
Nightwatch when I plug my phone into my charger, anytime between midnight and 6am (configurable), it automatically fires up a nice bedside clock, win!
Sticky Memo Widget Pro I have a rubbish memory, I like notes...
Retro Clock Widget pretty clock widgets
gTasks google tasks, nice to-to list
Steel browser, prefer it to stock
Y5 Battery Saver learns where your preferred wifi is at and turns wifi off when you're not there, thus saving juice (doesn't use GPS)
Quickpedia wikipedia app, because I like to look clever by knowing stuff about stuff
Twit2go twitter client, like it.
If anyone wants to include any of their free apps with my theme, let me know and if I like it we're on, I can also be bribed with pounds stirling, guinness, chocolate muffins and naked girls.

Done - MarksTheme-4.2.1.SL.a (includes Stericson Lockscreen) for cyanogen 4.2.1
Thanks Mark
U know I was waiting on this to make my phone complete
Like the red in the loading bar better then the blue. The black background u had in the keyboard was better to me
Thanks for your time and hard work to make this theme
Be waiting to c what u come up with next.
Yeah, thanks Mark!
Off to re-flash CM 4.21, then your theme.

Loving this theme, too many people don't take the time to make nicely rendered icons and widgets.
Power control widget = sick.
One thing though, I noticed there are "ghost" images in the app drawer (images of the apps above it). Is that on purpose?

which is the red/blue loading bar? maybe I missed something....
not sure about the red background myself, I added it after changing the buttons so they'd stand out, might shift them back onto black in next update.
I have no idea what I'll be doing next probably just tweaking and improving this one as I don't really have time for a whole new theme. all suggestions for tweaks and improvements gratefully received!

ok, I'll check it out, I just saw it too on mine.
Good to know it's not just me.
Ok, after messing with it, I got a few suggestions for the next release.
1. The background for the keyboard would look good either completely transparent or an opaque black, like the app drawer.
2. Do away with the "hypnotizing eye" loading animation and use something, cleaner and with more pop. This theme is way too clean to be using somthing that looks like a runic symbol.
3. For the app drawer pull tab, use either white, black or red. White would be best because it would look like the glow was coming from your trackball (which, on my MT3G, it does.)
4. Also, has anyone thought to make the pull tab look like the notification bar? that would make a clean and simple border for both ends of the screen, and give it some unification and symmetry.

- Settings and custom sliders
- How-to create a theme [UPDATE SOON]
- Future updates and wishes
The thread is full of answers and questions. If you do a quick search you might find the answer you were looking for. If you can't
find it, don't hesitate to ask. There are other users here willing to help you. Feel free to comment in this thread or send me a PM
if you feel the thread needs an update on any of the steps.
After initial setup you can personalize your settings some more. The first thing you're going to wanna edit is the Layout
- The grid size: If you're familiar with LauncherPro or ADW you should know that grid sizes determines how the screen will look.
WidgetLocker allows for up to 10x10 grid. Try it out and see what you like best. The grid size also changes the way themes look.
You can think of it like changing your density, unless you use the anchor. It will automatically resize the theme to the appropriate
size. It doesn't work in landscape mode, though.
- The wallpaper: The issue is that the system can only have one wallpaper and it's shared globally. So WidgetLocker's custom
wallpapers are just images that WidgetLocker displays as a background. The best fix for this might be for WidgetLocker to let you select
a file, using gallery or astro or whatever, and then have WidgetLocker do the cropping itself. This way it gets the actual image and can still
crop it or scale it down (sanely) to avoid using so much memory, but can be done without banding. If you want to do it manually in the mean
time and are rooted you can replace WidgetLocker's /data/data/com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker/files/wallpaper.png with your own. Just make
sure the resolution matches your phones. Then disable/reenable WidgetLocker to get it to reload.
- Installing a custom slider: Since WidgetLocker 2.0 custom themes are supported and come in the .wltheme.zip format. This means you can
open it and your phone will prompt you to Install and Add the theme. The themes are saved on your SD card (/data/com.widgetlocker.teslacoilsw/themes).
You can also copy the theme.wltheme.zip to the folder on your SD card. Naturally the theme will be unavailable once your SD card is mounted to a
computer or something similar. It will return to normal once you unmount it again. You add the themes you've installed by longpressing the screen and
choose Custom Slider. There you can do even further settings, like slide from right to left. If not you simply press "Add".
- Advanced settings: You can use Root Helper to avoid seeing the standard Android lockscreen if you have root. This is not something the developer of
WidgetLocker can do anything about. Check the information found in the application regarding root and standard lockscreen. An alternative is downloading
NoLock from the Market. If you've got root and a custom ROM loaded you can probably disable the lockscreen under Power Settings.
1) Create a new document.
The height of the slider is 150 - but we're going to add two extra pixels. WidgetLocker uses _3.png which allows for up and downsizing of the sliders. That means the
themes can be used with basically any device, ranging from HTC Wildfire to the Motorola Xoom. It's still not a hundred percent - but it's a hell of a lot better than the
old way of theming. More on _3.png in the next step
2) The black pixel (_3.png)
As you can see in the image below I've added a 1x1 pixel on the very top of my image. You can either zoom in a couple of times or create a smallest box you possibly
can in full view. The pixel has to be 1x1 if not it'll be shown in the theme. Which doesn't look good. In the picture below I'm zoomed in at 200 % (I think).
Continue making your design.
3) The slider
The actual size of the slider you can change around just as much as the background. I usually go with the same height, that way aligning the slider and background seems
easier. This is pretty self explanatory, see the below image.
Continue making your design.
This is what you want your themes folder to look like. The slider_right is fully transparent. There's no need to actually make it transparent. If your background doesn't contain
any text you can include a second arrow (like above) but the other way so other users can choose themselves if the want to slide left or right. (Protip)
Then finally .zip the themes-folder!

Themes:
The image heights don't allow sliders to appear on the very bottom of screen. This goes especially for the iphone themes. The slider
and background height don't look the same height no matter what I try in Photoshop. There are other users that are reporting this; Is it a user issue
or something that should be addressed?
It's my fault for poor examples and documentation, but can be handled by themers. I should've made the default iPhone background 152px tall so themers
would know to keep that, but didn't. Themes assume HDPI, so one standard slider row is 150px tall. Three Patch images have the 1 pixel border on all sides,
so a 152px tall background will perfectly fill out one standard row. WidgetLocker will scale/stretch the image if the row size is different. I've attached an ugly
iPhone theme to demonstrate.
Same idea for the sense slider, it defaults to two rows, so 300px background, no need for the 2 extra pixels since it's not a three patch.
Is there a possibility to disable the Sense clock?
I'll add this soon. Not 2.0.1, but probably 2.0.2.
Wishes:
More ways to unlock the screen! It'd be great if we could make a slider like the one attached. That'd be freaking awesome to be honest with you.
That's something people have even have been sending me PMs about!
I think the attached could be done, remove the Anchor then resize an iPhone slider to be vertical. But the theme would like kind of funny horizontally since WL
rotates the other direction.
I'm definitely planning on some more unlock methods. HoneyComb for sure, possibly something like MIUI, and maybe the Samsung puzzle unlock as well as the Samsung
sweep glass (Which is kind of similar to that WP7 one, except for the transparent part.
Android 2.1 and 2.3, but not 2.2, could handle transparent WidgetLocker pretty easily, 2.2 has some bug where lock screen interactions are difficult for a transparent activity.
I can work around it, but it's a pain since most of my users are on 2.2. But it's on my radar.

As lock as the apk is signed you won't need to push it, just uninstall original and install new as normal.

My guess is most people won't sign their .apk after applying the images.
Unless they use the APK Manager-step in the 'tutorial' of course.
Don't you need root to get to the APK in the first place? I can't access data/app without Root Explorer

I'm a little unsure, but seeing as non-ROOTED users are pulling their .apks and pushing them back I'm guessing root isn't necessary to pull the app from /data.
If it were located in /system I'm sure you would need root in order to pull it.
Root Explorer allows you to explore the 'locked down' parts of your phone. You cannot access /data with normal file browsers.
But regardless; Without root you can pull the .apk using your computer.
If it's gonna work when you push it back is the bigger question.
You can backup application
There's a little confusion here about rooting.
Allow me to clear it up.
I'm not rooted. But I don't purchase apk files from the Market.
I download them all. So I originally have the apk files on my computer.
I then run the APK Manager and go from there, then put the signed apk file on my SD card, use Astro to install it and voila.
Special Note: I no longer have my Fascinate (or any other at the moment), so theming is postponed until I get everything caught up and get a new Fascinate. My apologies, just a series of unfortunate events. I'll still be around keeping up and can help with questions and other themers as needed.
NOTE: I will be busy creating a new theme now that I figured out how to edit xmls to change font colors (now to figure out which edits are needed for the effects I want) *huge thanks to tiger4life for pointing me in the right direction).
I had to go all the way back to stock to get stock apks to work with since I accidentally overwrote my original backups *now I have redundant backups so that can't happen, gotta love terabyte drives Thanks to all who have or will use this theme and have donated. I appreciate it very much.
I have been slowly modding my Fascinate I thought it time I share what I have so far. My theme was designed for a DeOdexed system, you can load one of the already DeOdexed roms available or you can manually do it yourself, if you haven't already. I manually DeOdexed my sysem using the method found here.
Lots of pngs from the ANDRODeNa GaLaSSiA theme
Of course started with BlackMod by stanrc.
Added the 3G Round Signal Icon
Used the UOT Kitchen to get a modified Z series circle battery (pulled pngs from the created ROM)
a few files from the awesome work of thatdudebutch's awesome looking [Theme] Dark Gloss Mod, Thanks Brother!
I owe a huge SHOUTOUT to tiger4life for the (MOD) Add Reboot Option to Power Menu w/ the accurate battery option. Thank you my Man!
Big thanks to Reefermattness for the Darkness theme for the Captivate,
Additional thanks to frostman89's Nexttheme Airplane mode icons, and any other artist that I have not included because I have no idea where some of the files came from.
Theme attached adds the following new functions:
1. AppWidgetPicker
2. (MOD) Add Reboot Option to Power Menu
APK's Modified:
DialerTabActivity by CrushD (points to google Voice vs Visual Voicemail)
MediaProvider
Vending
Email (Menu 4 now)
Gmail (Menu 4 now)
framework-res
twframework-res
Also modifies Shutdown animation/video (Samsung vs Verizon)
I themed LauncherPro Plus with Ninjamorph (in Market), it is not included in this theme as I load it in system/app vs the default data/app location (it's my only launcher) and not everyone likes nor wants LauncherPro.
This is verified working on my system, I make no such guarantee for yours. You flash at your own risk. I accept no responsibly if your phone fails to start, dies a horrible death, explodes or any variation thereof.
Before you flash, MAKE A BACKUP. Your phone may take a bit longer to load after flashing, this is normal.
Also if you want the puzzle lock or sliding glass lock screens, follow the directions from this post. It works!
UPDATE: Minor tweaks, namely the puzzle lock screen. Made the sliding puzzle piece semi-transparent.
Attempted to change the phone keypad sounds. If anyone knows what xml's need to be modified I would appreciate it as I have not been able to locate where the changes need to be made, other than changing out the ogg files in "system/media/audio/ui".
UPDATE [10/07/2010] - V4.3 uploaded, due to size uploaded to alternate server now. (Link below screenshots) Themed email and gmail menu's. Few minor tweaks to framework and vending apk's. Removed earlier versions.
UPDATE [10/07/2010]x2 - Uploaded Storms Black Reboot Theme v5.0 - this is the same as v4.3 except it also includes the power options mod with working circle battery! Again thanks tiger4life!
UPDATE: [11/17/2010] - Been so busy creating new theme I spaced uploading updated version that has market buttons text fixed to white vs black on black. Version 5.2 available now. Also a huge THANK YOU! to sonofskywalker3 for adding this under his wonderful ROM!
Still to do:
1. Get text color fixed, still having issues.
2. Get reboot mod to work with accurate battery mod (anyone who can help will very much be appreciated) Thank you Tiger4life!
3. ?
If I helped you or you appreciate my work, please feel free to Buy me some time.

I just had a quick question. Extremely new to rooting so bare with me here...
Before I flashed this theme, i had the Remix Incognito theme posted under the theme section for the fascinate. I had that theme installed, and just flashed the Storm Blackish theme over the old one. Everything seemed to work great, except the "preferences" and "notifications" icon in the home screen menu didnt change and they are just grey. Also, the font from the old theme did not change to the font of the Storm Blackish theme. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for trying my theme. The "preferences" and "notifications" are controlled by LauncherPro and not by the framework. I used ninjamorph (available in market to replace those I'll attach them so you can to The are named appropriately for easy exchanging.
The fonts used are the same as what the fascinate ships with, I didn't change them, so the remix must have.

I didn't actually, it's a side effect of using the AppWidgetPicker apk, and not all of the touchwiz widgets show up, only the ones you see in the widget menu.

Please ensure you've uninstalled updates or otherwise removed all com.android.vending.apk entries from data/app, as this zip will place Vending in your /system/app directory.
9/25 Update to 3.1.5
Ok, finally got my theme ported into 3.1.5. I'll admit that this hasn't been real thoroughly tested, but so far so good for me. The themes are almost exactly like before...it's not identical, but it would be very hard to tell the small changes that were made. Still hdpi only.

Green trim-TransMarket_3.1.5gr-signed.zip
*These will flash to /system/app directory. It is very likely that you were silently updated to 3.1.5 and therefore have the apk in /data/app. If the Market is not themed after flash, go to settings>applications>manage applications>select "All" tab and scroll down to Market. Select uninstall updates.

Originally I hadn't intended on theming the new market, but I was asked by another member to help him with his and in the process of trying to help I started tinkering with it myself. The layout of this app doesn't lend itself well to a transparent theme, but it did turn out much better than I expected.
One of the aspects that I knew I wanted to keep if I ever did anything was the color coordination of the different product groups. I think that added a nice touch to the app. This actually made things somewhat difficult, and I had to venture into the land of smali edits (not my strong suit). However, I did reuse my newer buttons from the last market so many of them are blue, and the progressbar that I've integrated into the app is blue. The progressbars are ONLY IN THIS APP, it doesn't affect anything else on your phone.
**This looks best over darker wallpapers. The text colors are designed as such**
Here's some screenshot's:
Please do let me know of any omissions that you find as I have not checked all pages. Oh, and this isn't resigned so there shouldn't be any FC issues like in previous editions.

yeah, the change in the keyboard is pretty subtle. The only things that will change with LatinIME.apk are mainly going to be the suggested words that appear as you type, and the popup box when you hold down certain keys will have a blue ring around the letter. The space bar's highlight when suggestion popop and the caps lock light are blue, too. The other stuff you're talking about is actually going to be in framework-res.
I've been tinkering around with blue theming for a while now, and the keyboard is just part of that WIP. But since it's a 2.3 keyboard I thought I'd throw it in as well. The market, though works well on it's own or in conjunction with a blue theme.

Did you try wiping caches too? There's been mixed results in most of these Market threads from what I've seen. Some don't see the change, others have no issues at all. That's the whole reason I included the plain apk. I know some folks have com.android.vending-2.apk. It's the same file, just named different.
I've not done much theming outside of framework-res so please forgive me for not having an exact answer for you. Hopefully someone with a little more experience than me-particularly with theming system apks-will step in and offer some advice.
The apk is good, though for sure. Way too many people rocking it out right now for it to not be. Just gotta find out what small difference makes it not apply to some.

Hello fellow Nexus brethren
I know there's already a couple of these market threads, but I'm pretty sure none are themed quite like mine. I'm not a present N-S owner, but since we're related and all....I figure it's ok Pretty much every png has been changed.
A quick screenshot:
I'll have to defer to you all as to what the best way to install this is, so I've got a couple options. First the link below is a regular flash.zip installer that will mount system, and flash Vending.apk to /system/app. Also in the attachment section at the bottom is the the Vending.apk file itself.
DOWNLOAD
Market-2.2.7-PB-signed.zip
I've also got my lightly themed keyboard. This won't affect the text you see in the subject field, but does have the blue text in the suggestion area:
The link is a flash.zip that will mount system, and place LatinIME.apk in /system/app and a lib file in /system/lib. In the attachment section is a zip that contains just apk and lib file.

Probably not too hard I'd say. I'd just try to run a batch edit to make them all the same color. I probably won't be able to get to it tonight, as I'm swamped right now. I'll post when I have something...was this file able to work for you ok though?
Market Update:
Ok, so this is pretty popular I guess, judging by my inbox, lol. I've been helping a Nexus S owner in his transition from the N1 and he just discovered something....He was previously unable to get the flash to work (I just found out that the phone's odexed ) But he flashed the cyanogen alpha and the update flashed just fine. No problems. He did have to mount the system first in the recovery menu prior to flashing but it took just fine.
So there's one way to try if you're interested.
Thanks!

How did you install? I've tried flashing and also pushing to system/app via Root Explorer and still can't get it to install :-\
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Thanks for posting Chris. Got your message btw
@allareconnected,
I mentioned this in the above post, but for him it was critical that he actually mount the system in the recovery menu in order for it to take. Skipping that step prevented the flash from taking, even though there was no error.
I'm still a little confused as to why he needs to do this, since 1) the script in the zip has a mount system command, and 2) never had to do this with any other phone. I suppose it's possible that I missed something during the rooting process as I kinda helped him with that a little.
In any case, I'd think that pushing via root explorer would work fine as well.
I did have an issue earlier myself that was self inflicted (most of mine are, lol), but I kept getting a permissions FC. The way I ended up resolving the problem was by reinstalling a previous market (v1.82) that was in a gapps.zip from I downloaded in clockwork. After installing it, I rebooted into recovery and wiped cache and dalvik, then flashed my 2.2.7 and has been perfect all day. Even in miui.
If your having problems installing this, and you have the latest "new" market installed. Go to settings/applications/manage applications/all and find market, click it and choose uninstall updates.
After that, it should revert to this blue themed market
Did this for T-Mo Vibrant
@pendo, love this Market, works well on the SGS, but would it be possible to make a green themed one with your icons/images etc? That would be awesome Anyway great themed Market, and keyboard, keep it up!
New Market looks and works good here. CM7, pushed the Vending.apk with adb.
how can i get your whole blue theme, for the notification bar as well as the market
First and for most,
I must start this by saying that before you do ANYTHING
make a nandroid.
If you dont, well, that sucks for you.
I take no responsibility for your mistakes.
Now taking requests!
I wont claim to be some great artistic talent, but if you send me the image you want to use, Ill put it together for you. Donations not necessary, but always appreciated. Thanks!
You can find ones already done here!
Requests and premades found here!
NOW FOR THE SKINNY!So, most of us, Im pretty sure, think that the wallpaper on the lock screens suck. I was curious about if it was possible to change it and the answer I came up with was yes. Big thanks to Cy_ni_c for the heads up on this.
First of all you want to grab m10 tools.
Once you have that downloaded, open it up. Now you want to get the image ready that youre wanting as your wallpaper. To make things easier on yourself, make three copies. The image needs to be set EXACTLY this way:
1. Image needs to be resized to EXACTLY 540x960. You can do this in any image editor.
2. Flip the image upside down.
3. The images MUST be PNG format.
Once you have this done, you want to grab the IdleScreen_Weather.apk out of the rom youre usings zip folder. Its located in system/apps. Once you get the apk, you want to open up m10 and click load file. Navigate and select the IdleScreen_Weather.apk.
Once this loads, you want to click the tab that says m10 Files. At the bottom of the screen, youll see where it says Decode Images, make sure you check that box.
You want to double click the Lockscreen_weather_bg.m10. It will ask if you want to decompile it. Click yes. At this point, youll be brought to the next tab which is Editor.
From here you want to expand until you see Textures. Under there you will see three spots labeled Texture. Click that and it will bring up an image to the right. Right click on this image and click "Show in Explorer". You will see three png files in here. You want to replace each one with the images you created earlier. This is important though. Make sure you copy the name of each file youre replacing EXACTLY. Im not responsible for any errors you make on renaming.
Once you get all three of the images replaced, go back to start and then save .apk Make sure to use the same name.
Now you can either push this through ADB or just place the apk onto your SD card. If youre using a root explorer, which is how I do it cause its just easier, you want to copy the apk into the system/app folder. You want to make a backup incase you run into any issues. Once you get your edited apk inside of the system/app navigate to the file and long press and go to permissions then set them as follows.
Read Write Execute
Owner: X X 0
Group: X 0 0
Others: X 0 0
Once your permissions are fixed, you want to reboot. When you reboot let it marinate a bit. Let it load up the weather before you unlock it. While this particular method is for the weather screen, you can do this with the Friend stream, stocks or any other one you pick up. The overall method will be the same, file names will change. Over all this is simple for even the biggest of us noobs, so now take the time to enjoy your new custom lockscreen
Tips:
If youre having issues with the picture that you chose, thanks to Black00StangGT, theres a possible fix. Open up your image editor and change the color sync rgb profile to the generic rgb profile.

If youre still having issues and youve tried all other things, thanks to PrsnlCrcl, theres a possible fix. Before you save, zip align the apk. More on that HERE.
BIG THANKS TO CY_N_IC for this. He told me and I transcribed it. enjoy!
If youre wanting to make anything disappear from your lockscreen like the clock or date, try this out.
Find /system/apps/idlescreen_base.apk and open it in the m10 editor.
Once open navigate to Lockscreen_time.m10/0x0dc10c5e/lockscreen_time/timeline.time_fade/text.lockscreentime_ and where you see where it says Visible=1(bool) if you change this to 0 it will be hidden. You can do this with each of the items there.
Once you make the changes, go back and save it. Push with ADB or replace in a root explorer like normal. Reboot and enjoy.
Heres mine:
Glad you decided to post the tutorial after all.

Well, all real credit goes to you anyways. Thanks for showin me how to do it man. Really appreciate it.
Awesome def putting my Alma mater with this one
It may be slightly conservative but, I like it a sh1t load better than that grid thing. I also changed out the Dark Horse lock ring for one with a little more shine. Thanks to Cy_n_ic for teaching McLabia how to do this because he practically had to hold my hand through my first shot at this! Thanks for showing me this Mc.

Does it have to be the idle weather apk? The weathers really in the way of the images right?
*WALK in the WORD*
I followed the instructions and when I reboot and boot up all the way, the weather doesn't show anymore. What I get instead is a black screen that will go back and forth between that and new background to lock screen. Thanks for the tuturiol hope you can offer some insight to get it to work for me.

Like I said in the last part, you can do this with any of the other lockscreens. Pick which one you want and swap the images. I havent tried this with other ones, but the principal behind it should be the same. As far as the weather being in the way, yeah it is a bit, but I knew that going into it. I just didnt want that boring ass grid background from before.

Try doing it again. Go step by step with it and it should work. It has worked for others. Not sure where youre having the issue though. If you do it again and still have issues, pm me and well see if we can get it figured out. I might add some screenshots to make it a bit clearer.

Eh, you dont really need the wallpaper one because you can set it inside of the personalize menu. The others you cant.
Also, if you do this, Id be interested in seeing what some of you guys put together. Post up some screen shots.
i guess your wallpaper lockscreen couldnt be different than you regular wallpaper. wasnt thinking about that.

I think Im confused about which lock screen youre talking about then. Each of the four main lock screens has an image associated with them. The Weather one has the blue world grid one and Photo album has the grayish one. The wallpaper and clock ones I believe have the desktop wallpaper that you already have chosen on your desktop.. I may be wrong about the clock one though.
you are correct about the images.
This is my first.

Thanks for the confirmation. Other than the whole Alabama thing, it looks good! lol
Thanks, ROLL TIDE!
Hey Mc. I was wondering if you've had any trouble with your weather locks misbehaving on the latest nightly? Since I flashed the 7/10, I can't run them. They come and go, alternating between black screen and lock screen. It works while its there but I have to catch it at the right moment. I've tried wiping, not wiping, known working lock screens, newly made lock screens, etc. The only one that works for me now is stock. Any guidance on this?
