Before installing this theme you must have the Lite version of JF 1.42 RC33, which can be found here.
This is my most complete theme thus far which includes icons, a menu bar, status bar images, etc. (Even a custom blue android during bootup)
My wife directed this theme and gave tips which probably made it better
If theres anything you notice that needs to be corrected or if you have suggestions, please leave feedback. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback, yea i'm having trouble finding the pictures icon file lol, still searching though. I do plan on going systemwide and adding more to it little by little.
well keep it up....great work.
Im also not personally a fan of the status bar. but only because im not a fan of gradients, doesnt really detract from the theme at all.

I've located the pictures icon and will have an update in a few mins. I'm pretty sure i'll be changing the status bar and drop down bar to match the clock a bit more.
aiight, love the changes...one flaw now...the top bar for the folders....must be coded wrong or something because once selected it becomes distorted severely. I'll post a screenshot.
Thats why we dont edit .9.png files, unless you know the technique that someone has posted here somewhere.
well hopefully he figures it out or someone helps him out with it....its a good theme. and if he figures it out and goes system wide it could be a GREAT theme.
Up until this point, I've never seen a theme that looked slick enough to actually use, without being too niche. I've been tirelessly searching for a theme that just looked good, but wasn't too over-the-top. However, this theme struck me as just that, and installing it as my first theme, I must say I'm impressed.
I only have two complaints -- firstly, as mentioned, the top of the folder menu becomes distorted when selected. Secondly, I would like to see the blue color scheme more deeply integrated into the phone, replacing the orange color when making a selection, if possible. I recall seeing it in a theme somewhere else, so I believe it can be done. I know working with the .9. files are tricky, but I feel that with a little more effort, this can be an A+ theme.
Changing the music icons (Artists, Albums, Songs, and Playlists) would also be nice, if only changing the icons from green to blue.
Also, I find the background to be just a little too much. I think this one would make a good default; it meshes nicely with the color scheme:

Thanks all for the feedback, its appreciated. Ill definately fix up the folder bar and start incorporating some additional icons to the music window & player, etc. Ill post an update soon today with the changes for the folder.
Excellent looking theme, honestly its beautiful, but I always have trouble downloading from megaupload so maybe if you could change the filehosting site to something more convenient that would be awesome. Don't stop making themes, you clearly have a gift 8D
I generally don't post a lot of feedback. I have just recently started my first theme. And didn't feel that posting feedback till I was contributing to the site was truely justified. (My upcoming theme is a US Presidential theme. With heads of presidents as icons....hopefully I can manage it.)
Back on topic now. I love the theme. It is my newest downloaded theme and my favorite. My only notice is when you go "menu" "wallpaper" "wallpaper gallery" it force closes android desktop. When I choose pictures instead of gallery it works perfect. I know its small, but thought I would let you know. Even with this, I love the theme. Wife wants to know if you have it in Pink, lol. Keep up the great work.

One other issue I've noticed with the theme is that on the very, very bottom of the home screen, there's a bright blue line going across horizontally -- the top of the pull-out drawer. While this may have been your intention, I personally find it a bit distracting. Just my opinion. I feel the theme would be a tad bit better-looking if the line was simply not there, like with the stock appearance.

Lol, send me a screenshot.
As far as the arrow in landscape mode, I'll fix that up as soon as I'm back home. I'll have an update up at about 2am most likely. Let me know if you notice anything else so I can patch it up too. Thanks.
Hi All, thought I would publish my first effort at a WAD2 theme. My main aim after using other peoples themes was to make one that is 'thumb friendly' and real simple to use. It has 3 menu pages with large graphical buttons, and a 'home' screen with shortcuts to txt, email and call list. this theme is 99% portrait, how ever on my touch pro 2 if i flip the keyboard and go to landscape i do have a very basic black home screen with the 3 shortcuts. If people like the theme and would like to produce their own icons, let me know and I can post up some photoshop templates.
Installation
Install the files to your normal theme directory and search for new themes, then select Angularz as your portrait and/or landscape theme. Please make sure you install the fonts prior to use, as it may not the clock etc correctly.
Fonts
I use helvetica Neue fonts in the theme and have supplied these in the zip file. I also have replaced my system font with helvetica as it looks nicer, but I will leave that down to you. If you just want to use the fonts for WAD only, place the 3 helvetica fonts in your windows folder (with the rest of the system fonts)
I think I have packaged up all the correct bits (if not please let me know!!)
PLEASE CAN A MOD ALLOW ME TO SHARE LINKS!!
This looks neat. Nice docks.
good day.
it's just WOW!!
Thankyou!, I just wanted something simple but visually nice to look at, and this is the end result!
I find that if you increase the display cache size (through altering the windows registry) it does make it scroll through pages a little smoother.
thatbastard,
I'm using your theme and IMO, it is a simple but gorgeus. However, I have a problem with all notifiers. They are not appeared when I have some unread sms or missed calls. Do you have any suggestions? My device is Omnia i8000.
hi Laruku
You can try going to author mode, then page - show notifiers. Go to the properties once held down on the notifier and have a look through there. Mine is set on 'notifier type - unread sms' etc. by default this should work, however I dont know how different it would be on an omia. have a look in there and see if anything has changed.
how do you get out of author mode
taphold at any page and you'll get yourself the popup menu, i forgot which is the get out of author mode menu,,, but it is there,,,
@thatbastard,
would you mind sharing the images? the home wallpaper is really nice.
new version of WAD converts all the images folder into .wadesktop extension,,, which prevents me for extracting the images,
thx
here's my version
hello everybody !
Here's MY angularz, i hope you'll like this.
Koralii
you can see this on Youtube : v=GXtEynNZaf4 (sorry but i'm new here and can't post the shortcut.
Great Work
Great to see an original piece of work. i will give this a shot
Thanks for adding a bit of originality to my blackstone
Mark
Looks great !!!
wow, great theme
i think i'll make some personal changes and it'd be perfect for my daily use, YO~
DOOD JOB!!
Really nice. It's a shame, imo, that windows phone7 doesn't look more like this. My only comment would be that it might look better to have the text in panels up and to the right a few pixels, and have the voicemail icon transparent. (I can only comment on the screenshot as I don't have VAD2 installed on my device...
Thought it would be handy to have a volume icon on the home screen...

Hi all, thanks for checking out my theme, Ive glad youve all liked it. Unfortunately I dont have wisbar installed anymore (and Ive had a lot goin on recently) so will not be continuing anymore projects but I thought I would share the remaining files I have. You can continue modding from my theme as freely as you like, as long as you mention it was based on my creation

Sure, there should be a zip file with ALL the angularz images. Ive also included a new homescreen which is a gloss black version (was going to be called Mono Tonez) but it will not be finished.
Enjoy!
good looking theme
willing to release a WQVGA version?
I´m new user of wad and i don´t know how to install this theme. I´ve installed mortscript and wad, and theme in lakerbridge/themes, and fonts in windows/start menu/programs fonts folder, but I don´t know where install angularz.wadesktop
Thanks a lot of.
Uncle Google says:
1. Using ActiveSync, copy the .wadesktop file to any location on your device.
2. From your device, use File Explorer to navigate to the .wadesktop file you just placed there, then tap on it to launch it.
3. You will be prompted as to a location to place the extracted files. Choose any location you wish (I personally find it helpful to have a Themes folder set up in advance).
4. Once the files are extracted, open WisBar Advance Desktop (if it's not open already), tap and hold on the screen, then tap Change Theme.
5. Now tap Menu > Scan for Themes. When the scanning process is complete, the theme you just installed should appear on the list.
6. Tap the theme, then tap Menu. Choose the appropriate menu option for setting as portrait or landscape. Please note that theme files are usually designed for one orientation or the other.
7. Tap Apply and you're done.
This should get you set up.
Thank you, uncle...
I´ll try.
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.
sent using froyo facinate super clean style
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!!!
Hi everybody!
First of all, I am using Buzz Launcher, which means that my "themes" are made following specific parameters such as the grid size, no labels, etc.
But I think that other launchers allow you to customize your appearence as well.
My phone resolution is 854*480.
I had a 720p one but had to send it back, so for now I can't work on that resolution anymore.
So for those having higher resolutions, well I don't know what the result would be on your screens. Except for wallpapers, I guess icons would be displayed well.
Before sharing my files, I'd like to show you what I've done so far and get your opinion: if you like it or not, what I could/should change, etc.
This to get a nice final result.
And obviously I won't and never will sell those resources because:
- I'm using some stuff such as photographs from other persons
- Some icons are directly made from other icons you can find on the Play Store or Google Image
- I'm here to share
To be edited later (once I have posted 10 messages and can freely post direct links):
I. Icons only
II. Backgrounds only
III. Themes: icons + backgrounds
I. ICONS
II. BACKGROUNDS
III. THEMES
Hey!
One of my nicest try so far: a panda theme! (I love pandas)
The panda is partially made from an iPhone game icon named Land-a-panda (see the attached pictures).
Those icons are for HD displays (720p): 144x144. Work fine on lower resolutions.
And I've "made" a few backgrounds too, giving quite a cool result when used with those icons.
Also, because it's quite boring to always have the same face, I just added 2 other kinds of eyes (see Viber and Video Player icons).
What do you think? Worth sharing them?
Any idea welcome
Let's keep up the monologue.
Seems not be be very interesting. Whatever, I'm sharing my work anyway.
Let's begin with the icons:
192 icons (64 app with 3 different kinds of pandas), pretty high quality: 144x144. See the sample below.
And if you are wondering: yes, it took me ages to save each file.
I'll share the Photoshop template once I can post direct links (man that's some weird annoying policy!), so that you can create your own icons without having to wait for updates (as I may not update this theme anyway).
If you give it a try, please share some photos/screenshots
ZIP file size: 3.62Mb
Note: if you find the icons resolution too high (say you want a 96px² size), you can use a (free) software such as ImRe to massively convert the whole folder. It perfectly and quickly does the job.
Laterz
Hey oi!
New icons, "copied" from a screenshot I saw somewhere (I think it's called themer, it's new and not compatible with all phones (not my X720D).
So here we go, 3 samples and the template file (PSD, Photoshop CS5).
The PSD is made as follow:
- A folder with the white pictures representing the icons (that's the part you really need to work on if you want to make your own icons)
- The icon's shadow (layer)
- The icon's color (layer), locked to the edit mode (you pick your color, use the brush tool and paint: it will paint ONLY the visible pixels).
Theme 5: Japanology (again)
The principle of this theme is simple: the background is the main deal, then there just needs to add the app and choose a transparent PNG to make them invisible.
Main problem with that theme: icons cannot be replaced, which means you must always keep the same applications on your screen.
edit: well it seems that uploading pictures isn't working at the moment. My PC or the servers, I don't know. I'l try to re-upload later if it keeps showing a 404.
Hum there seems to be a problem with uploading pictures from the forum. Even after having edited my post 2 times.
Hoho but I found a way to post links without having 10 posts: quotation (I hope you won't mind)
Click on each picture to enlarge it. See the above post for more information about how to use that "theme" (Buzz Launcher); Note that you must create your own date/time/battery widget (as in the screenshot below).

Hi all
Does anyone know of a good guide that shows you how to create a theme for a galaxy s6?
I am wanting to make a theme that uses the standard icons, but has some darker colours in the sms/phone app.
I dont like the theme store AMOLED friendly / black themes because they dont have enough colour and we loose the defaut iconset.
Basically if i can take the standard theme and modify a few things I'd be happy
Whenever I try to search for answers, all i seem to be able to find is references to some elusive and unobtainable theme creation tool that samsung was ment to release back in April.
I am just after the tool or a guide right now, i dont want to add my themes to the samsung theme store.
foundit
Oooh looks like this site is now back up again
developer.samsung.com/theme#mytheme
Edit: Nevermind that doesnt do the job
It is a super basic editor that just allows you to add wallpapers and icons - it wont let you change the background and coloring of the sms and phone apps.
