I have been using CM9 for a while now and I love the dark Halo theme of ICS. I however don't care for the light theme in the messaging app. So I took a crack at changing it. This is my first attempt at theming an app. I'm pretty sure I got most everything, but if I didn't, let me know. On to the screens:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
How to install:
*Make sure you backup and remove any messaging app from /system/app/ as this will replace it.
adb:
Code:
adb push Mms.apk /system/app/
adb shell chmod 0644 /system/app/Mms.apk
adb reboot
Or just move with a file explorer, just make sure to change permissions!
I have only tested this on my EVO 3D, but it should work for any device with 4.0+ SENSE, or AOSP.
*Download:
AOSP_Dark_Mms.apk 1.96 MB
Is this based on cm9 mms? Looks great. Could you make one of the latest cm9 mms and change background to black? Better for samoled and looks great.

The funny thing about this is it looks like google has copied a theme from the community with gingerbread. Nice work man.

Some new blurry pics have started to show. Maybe this will help you keep updated on the icons
just tried out this theme it's pretty cool hopefully when "non blurry" screenshots are released we can perfect this!
also just an IMO the green is a little too bright? lol
Thanks Legion.

I have some questions on the getting the framework to work. I notice there are other framework-res apks in the system/framework folder when i use root explorer. Do i over ride these or do i just drop the apk in. And when you set permissions in root explorer do you want all the boxes checked. much appreciated.
yes, you paste this into /system/framework OVERWRITING the existing Framework-res.apk.
Permissions should look as follows:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
ugh.. black and neon green is so 'terminal'.
Looks nice in the photos though, but it would drive me crazy.
DJ05 version?

So I've been holding out on you guys for a little while. I tweaked the Gingerbread theme that I made for Cognition a while ago and came up with this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Attached below is a CWM flashable file. And yes the last screenshot does show GSII icons on the TW3 launcher.
I went through and changed the icons and modified the apk's on some of the default system apps like the: Browser, Camera, Clock, Contacts, Gallery, MMS (AOSP not Samsung), Music Player, Phone, TW Launcher, TW Calculator and the TW Calendar. I also pulled some apps from Serendipity 6.2 such as: DialerTabActivity and Swype.
For a flashable zip of the apps check here.
Amazing theme, i really like it. Is it possible to theme the mms apk too?

It would be if I had more time to figure out which files to change. Unfortunately I don't, sorry.
If I were to switch back, how would I go about doing that? Just make a backup or reflash the rom?
This looks great BTW, thanks! Although I'll be tweaking the colors a bit here and there.
Grab the framework-res.apk and tw framework-res.apk from the rom your using and paste them into your /system/framework/ folder with root explorer.

Oh it just replaces the frameowork apks? That makes it so much easier!

Hi guys, I'm usually just a forum poster to XDA, but I want to achieve a Theme Maker status.
This is a Music theme based on the Stock, it should work on all Froyo ROMs, not sure about GB but you can test.
This looks a bit like Trekfan's Music app made to fit the form of the ICS Set for Froyo.
When you open you will notice a Gritty Blue look to the now playing bar at the bottom, this was made through PicsArt Android app with other things added that aren't important. When you will Guide yourself to your Artists albums that display the Unknown Album Art .png you will see that it has been custom themed to a Brown Burnt Paper while still displaying the CD.
Upon displaying the play Menu you'll see the buttons have been Sheer Effected.
I hope any and all who use this enjoy it, this was strictly made through my phone.
PLEASE IF YOU USE THIS LEAVE FEEDBACK, IT ENCOURAGES US THEME MAKERS TO ATTEMPT MORE.
All stock ICS theming goes to the righteous Trekfan.
Love XDA

Just a few things changed, I've gotta get my computer back so I've got my editing tools.
1. I can't stand the Black/Grey Unknown Artist CD display.
2. Just seen an advantage.
3. More hardcore work will come when we get the Computer and I can do Grit editing.

its a modified SystemUI.apk that i changed to say "H" to "4G" and changes the "3G" notification to look a bit more sleek
"4G" Style: Download
To Install (for now)
Code:
mount system as r/w and
adb push SystemUI.apk /system/app/
Ill post a flashable zip later
I might add an EDGE and GPRS mod too, but they seem low priority

Question.

Only on Sense roms. You can, however, extract the pngs and use them on AOKP if you edit its apk yourself.
It looks very nice.Thx so much.
