I remember a ROM from a past device (Hero i think) where the lockscreen scrim was transparent and I could see what app or webpage i was on previously without unlocking the screen. Ya know, giving you that "oh yeah, forgot to finish that" feeling. The sliding tabs and everything were the same as AOSP, just the background was clear.
I liked that feature and was wondering if this is possible for a themer to whip up?
The Hero was running 2.1, so I hope this option hasn't been eliminated with gingerbread 2.3.4.
Any interest?

I want a theme that's black/cyan for my aria. It's running RC1 [from the RC1 thread], and I've already changed all the text colors to a cyan that matches the original cyano mod power strip/bar. but there are plenty other colors floating around (lockscreen, incoming call, battery icon, etc).
I'm a noob at fiddling around with actual the actual files (apks, jars), and I'm scared of installing a theme that's not meant for this rom (will it even boot? i got stuck in boot loop when i tried a cm6 theme >.<). I like a clean look like the glass themes (can't post links.. urg) but in cyan (and able to run on this rom/phone). Metamorph won't run on this phone. Is there a way to flash a MM theme without it (guess not?)?
..is there a black/cyan theme floating around that'll work for the aria rc1?
Im not sure if its exactly what you're looking for but if you search "CyanogenMod ADW Theme" in the market place there is a theme that sounds like what you're looking for. And its meant to work with ADW which is the launcher that comes preinstalled with CM6.
lol I remember seeing that one, but it looks like someone puked cyan all over the screen >_<
Also, I'm looking for more of a simple rom theme, and not so much actually changing icons/buttons.
In fact, if anyone can teach me how to change colors (lock screen, battery icon--so it's cyan and not green, incoming/ongoing call screen, other notification bar icons--alarm/wifi/mobile network/signal strength/etc, menu/setting font colors, icon highlight color, etc) manually, I'd be just as happy to go through the labor myself (..i think). A point to a tutorial would help too
EDIT: nevermind. I found some tutorials and stuff in the theme forums. I'll just read up there and figure it out.
I've seen several of you asking for it, so I figured i'd let you all know what the holdup is. I'm working on creating an AOSP lockscreen for DL30 that will make future theming much easier. If I can get it working like I want here is what it will do.
currently if you download a theme with an aosp lockscreen you need to get an android.policy.jar file from that themer to change to puzzle lock so that it doesn't break any theme elements when you flash it. Same with if you want an aosp lockscreen that will or won't unlock with the menu key.
What i'm trying to do is create one android.policy.jar file that uses the AOSP lockscreen with no menu unlock by default. you will be able to change these features by creating files in the /data/local folder called "enable_glasslock" to enable the puzzle or glass lock and disable aosp, or one called "enable_menukey" to enable the menu button to unlock the screen. all without flashing a new android.policy.jar. If I'm able to create this, and it becomes the standard for custom themes, then there will be no more having to download multiple themes to choose which lockscreen you want. If i'm missing something and this has already been done, please let me know and point me in the right direction...
Once this is done i'll be able to easily make the Blackmod Enhanced theme for DL30, and you'll be able to easily switch between lockscreens without having 4 downloads to choose from.
Thanks for the good word. Looking forward to it.

Thank You
Yes me to, I am really looking forward to it. I like the "smaller AOSP lock screen, one theme I had it was huge, the one I am on now is smaller and I like it. I wish I could do all this from scratch. I want dark keypad, little blue refresher icon, love the colorful sd card when it reads, the circle with percent battery, although the gauge was cool too, and when I hook the usb to pc instead of the sound it has now I would add the Star Trek sound when it says connected.
One thing cool I noticed this time I am able to change the phone, browser, and drawer icons! I did not notice that on any other version, that is awesome. Green Lanter for browser.
Dude you rock, thanks again!!!

I have some Lock Screen for Pandahome and there is working notifications bar but its only in lock screen. Hope you can help me!
There's no theme that will change your statusbar to an iPhone-like one as far as I know. When it comes to the actual theme you're better off installing Desktop VisualizeR from the Market and finding icons on www.macthemes.net - In all seriousness an iPhone homescreen is just a bunch of shortcuts.
The menus? As in Prefrences, Settings menus and so forth? I don't know if there exists a MIUI ROM for Galaxy S. You'll have to check that out: But MIUI is a nice blend between Android and iPhone.
For future reference: Try the Search function, or Google search before posting a thread.
There's a Vibrant MIUI ROM you can try, but they haven't ported/updated it in a long time.
I used it for maybe a week, and eventually just let it go because it was too hard to function with it. Like zHk3R said, you should download some icons and try to emulate what you like from iPhone and blend it in with Android yourself.
Haha if you want an iphone theme just buy an iPhone this is android for a reason

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?
Im running CM7 and i love it for the speed but i'm not a fan of the dock or status bar, as a previous user on Sense on my HTC Wildfire i loved the UI and really want the dock bar and status bar on CM7. (note i'm not bothered about having any of the icon pictures changed).
1) If there is a mod to install that is cool with me and id slightly prefer it than a theme because from my understanding themes are less than perfect.
2) If i have to have a whole theme (i imagine i will) i'd prefer it to be for ADW but launcher pro is also fine. Take note the status bar and dock must be included and work, i don't care if the icons have been changed to the HTC icons or not.
Thank you in advance!
(Ps. Before someone comes along and says have you tried searching the answer is yes however, I only found poor themes without dock bar. Also i am very busy currently so didn't have a lot of time to look in fact i barely had time to write this out. Anyway sorry if this is a easy thing to find but iv'e told you why i havn't found it).
You could try LP sense UI. It looks just like sense dockbar. It is a launcher pro theme. Just look for it on 4shared. I don't think it is available through the market. It won't change your status bar. You will have to look through cm7 themes and find one close.
There's an HTC elegance theme you can find in the cm7 theme sticky

The best way to get a Sense notification bar is probably to use the Ultimate Onlline Kitchen. Use the empty theme Mendozinas provides, add the Sense notification icons, and cook. You should be all set.
Thanks to you all I chose to use LP sense UI which works great and especially like that it brings the fake sense widgets with it. Will probably also use Ultimate Onlline Kitchen to gain the Sense notification bar. (Assuming that they don't interfere with each other but im guessing they wont.)
Look up NT sense
Signatures are fancy.
You should check out my sense theme for cm7. It is essentially LP Sense UI but i've included dozens of sense clocks, NTSense, and many other themed Sense apps. There is a link to it in my signature, if you do try it out, could you give me some feedback? I stopped working on it because nobody responded and I assumed nobody downloaded it. Could you show some love?
