has anyone or can anyone modd the desktop clock while being docked from the glowing green to like a dark blue or cyan color?
I don't have a Dock. What's glowing? The trackball or the screen?
he means the clock. its green for a reason, the green pixels have the longest life and blue has the shortest life.
but if you really wanted blue, im sure its possible.
adam beat me to it, oh well
the blue leds in amoled screens have a horrible lifespan. to quote wikipedia
"blue OLEDs historically have had a lifetime of around 14,000 hours to half original brightness (five years at 8 hours a day)"
green leds have 2-3 times the lifespan depending on the screen. plus, green is the easiest color for the human eye to see so it makes sense to have it as a night clock.
i know this doesn't really answer your question. But this is the reason why it's green and why i don't think anyone has tampered with it.

..somebody is working on that already
sweet thank you guys..yeah id still like a blue version, im lucky if i keep phones over a year anyway
i seen it brought up earlier but thought it hit a dead end since i heard nothing more about it.thanks all!
The only one I really knew of is now a dead link. Are there any other options for plain black status bars?
Thanks.
I agree. The only 2 things I want I can't find(or I can't find proof of it working properly).
I just want a black status bar(like desire), and battery percentage. That's it. :-(
Desire bar for CM6 please and thanks!

Just read the instructions for CM6... you have to specify your own font colors for the status bar/notification stuff.

I'm using that one on my nightly build - just installed it today (black on black) it's quite nice

Glad you're using my status bar lyingit!
To the OP, part four, check the link in my sig for the xda thread on my status bar. It's pure black so it shows off your amoled better than the desire bar, and blends with the black glass around it.
Update 2(Jan 20, 2010): We have just released the white and black themed dialer to Android Market(Look down for how to find it). Please see the screen shots below. Hope you'll like it. Any feed back is welcome
Update 1 : Thanks everyone for the replies, that's more than what we expected Right now more people like the black/white one than the other, we will probably go with black/while. (right now it's blue though). For people who want to try it out, the blue one can be found on android market, please refer to the bottom of the post about how to find it.
We are working on a new Dialer project, and here are two sets of UIs we decide to use, and would like to know which one you like more
Our designer like the white/black one, I (the developer) like the blue one myself.
The blue one except the dialer part is in the Market already, if you like, you can search for "movesti" in Market, then in the result look for "AContact". (Just type "AContact" won't work)
most definitely the white and black one
They both look outstanding, but I'm leaning towards the blue one.

black and white... blue needs some contrast, maybe blue and more black?
Black and white.
should have made this a poll. i like the black and white
black and white
Black and white. The block of just blue is too much, either it needs to be contrasted with something (white?) or scrapped for something else (green/white?).
Black & White looks clean and sexy
I think they BOTH look awesome. I would use either one. I know that's not very helpful, but it doesn't help that you made two awesome looking UI's either.
Hmmmmm.... But if you really need input, I would prefer a dialer that's pretty much all black, with tron-blue highlights to the buttons when selected.
Other than that, I can't wait to try these out.
Black and white would be easier to use in brighter light conditions, but I really like the blue one. It would look much better if the sections of screen above the letterpad and dialpad were blue headers and white sections though - I agree with the previous comment that there is just too much blue!
So i tried using aContact from the Market. When opening, the app says it's importing my contact data, then quits and displays an error in a toast notification. I tried emailing, but it says that movestiatgmail.com does not exist.
The error I receive is:
"An error just happened:java.lang.StringIndexOutofBoundsException: String Index out of range. -1"
Any ideas?
wow - the black white
They both look amazing. I am leaning more toward the black and white one but I would definately switch it up.
I am starting to get tired of the dark holo theme in ICS (for example in settings, calculator, camera, in the keyboard, statusbar, etc.) I have been searching all over the place for a white/light theme for the DHD but haven't had any success.
There is the Syk Sky theme for the Nexus (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1654546), after flashing my phone wouldn't boot.
The Reloaded ICS mod is fantastic (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23275045), and my phone will boot and work with it, however it always crashes after about 3 min.
The closest I could find was Ghost (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1681710), but I really miss the blue accents.
Does anyone know of a theme/mod for this? I have the feeling I'm one of the only ones that wants the Holo light, not dark theme.
I've tried to make it myself, but I don't know anything about programming on Android or the android resource management, so quickly failed at that. If anyone would be willing to make the theme I'd gladly pay money for it (although everyone like free themes ).
Thanks
Been working on this still a couple of weeks from completion. Not sure if this is what your talking about.

Cool theme! I was looking more for a "classic" ice cream sandwich look, with the accent blue, just not with a dark background
Absolutely agree. You are not the sole one, for sure. I'm second.
Happy with TouchWiz 5 theme now, but ghost theme is just mind blowing.

Guys, I found these two themes. They aint fully emulate the look n feel of holo light, but they would surely bring out something.
MasterUIv4: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688250
Aluminium: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1655946

Like the first one from [email protected] Light grey and Orange. Simple but smud

A simple yellow/gold one? Maybe just because I'm a black and gold fan.

+1 on the light theme. Thank you for your time and continued support.

It'd love to see a clean ui only theme. Using your awesome aesthetics on just the Android system, no inverted apps, just the main system (quick tiles, status bar, dialer, menus etc). I already use inverted apps and sometimes inverted themes conflict. I like when the quick tiles and the dialer really pop, with a nice blue ui and shading that creates a nice rich dimensional look.

Here's one of the nicest quick tile layouts I've seen: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2169979
Natinvid did a nice job on these themes, and posting to show an example of what I was meaning by having the tiles "pop". Take your status bar styling (which is the best hands down - I love the larger size/style of the signal, wifi, battery icons) and whatever you can cook up for a 3D quick tile, and you've got themeing gold!
I also really like how your themes shade an unopened new email completely in the themes base color. It's a simple touch that is handy.
I also would like to see a true red/green button while making a call, can be tricky on call answering and three way calls.
That's my 2 cents, my bank account is waiting.....
And as always, thank you for making our phones better by all the work you do.
