Well there have been hacks to get rid of the bottom softkey row but it gets rid of it in all apps which starts a no-no.
Another method would be to use homescreens that are full screen... kinda like the ones you have to launch (basically an app). You don't really get rid of the bars, just have a program covering them up.
Another method, which I used to use, is to skin the bars with the same image so it appears they're gone, with just the background and icons and softkey text. It actually works well. Of course you need WM6.5 that allows skinning.
Other methods include "desktop" replacements like WAD and such. They basically skin the bars to your liking and works with older windows mobile OS's

Thanks Player911 for the advice. BTW, i am using WM6.5, so what would you suggest as best.
Please keep in mind i am running the Gen.Y Manila "Revolution" R1.5 VGA Port CFC with the Panaramic background.

I'd like to know this also...
And it'd be amazing if anyone ported this to vga...

Yes please, because this is something that I have been wanting to do for a long time too, and many forum searches have pulled up threads deeming it impossible...

Hey guys i put together a tutorial

Super Dark Notification bar??

Is there a Super Dark Notification bar theme that makes the Notification bar Blend with the Nexus One's Outer layer ((the Black lining ))?

You won't get it as dark as the actual border, but there are plenty of "black bar" notification bar tweaks. Check out my signature for a version of black bar that works in FroYo (FRF50, not 72 yet, sadly).
Look in the Themes and Apps section for more. Also, if you use the search function, you'll find a ton for whatever custom ROM you are on already.

Do you need to root frf50 ti change the colour of the notification bar?

Do you need a rooted Frito frf50 to replace the standard notification bar with a black one?

exactly as above. i use a completely black color, 100% true black. and then use a true black wallpaper, so that they blend together completely. cant tell one bit, and it looks great! plus its saving so much battery

Thats exactly what im looking for!! Does it work with Froyo??

yes i am using one with froyo. just search around for the thread.

You'll never get it as dark as the border, purely because it's a backlit screen, so even 100% black will still be fairly light. Hell, even when the display goes off it's still not 'that' black.
But yeah, the picture that icegad posted will be as dark as you can get it.

[Q]Any ADW themers wanna improve a theme for me?

or for everyone.
I downloaded the paperless system ADW theme from the market and i absolutely love it.
the person who designed it only did a few Icons and no widgets.
i wish/would like for most of my icons and widgets to be in this paper theme
i don't care to have the dialer and all of that fully themed, but it'd be sweet to have my music widget and maybe even my power control widget to be themed
just asking I like it maybe other people will like it too.

anyone else ever used this theme, its hot like fiya
this is a SS straight from the DEVS page, i emailed him 2 days ago but he hasn't been back to me

i am doing requests for icons and other widget themes. 50c each icon and 2.50 per widget theme. let me know if your interested.

Try here:

I saw some paper like icons there not real sure they match well, but there is a set called magic marker that might work. Either way, take a gander. As for widgets, not sure about that. Sorry.

I got the url from gomorrah's black mod thread. He used it for his icons. I must say, though, it IS pretty good. Took me awhile to figure out how to use them.
Sent from my CDMA Hero. I got some hot froyo on hero action here!

IMO, you could make new icons for it really simply. Just draw them out on paper, scan them, and then cut the icon out and edit it into an icon. If I had a scanner and some decent drawing skills, I'd definitely help you out. But alas, I have no scanner (or drawing skills!)

[Q] Transparent Docks in Launcher Pro

Hey Guys,
Just wondering if anyone can help me with this.... I'm sure it's something simple I am overlooking, but I have searched everywhere for an answer and have been unable to find one. I am trying to apply a transparent Dock in Launcher Pro, and for the life of me it will no show up opaque.
preferences-apperance settings- Dock Background-Custom....
I have been applying various transparent .png docks I have found (ie touchwiz dock) but will not work.....
Any Ideas guys?

What if you just set it to "none"...? Theres nothing there. Are you trying to obtain a different effect than that?

Go here. I've never had a problem with docks, though. They always have showed up how they should.
Also, there is an app called LPI (launcher pro icons) that has alot of different docks as well. But the link will take will take you to the themes secton of the launcher pro forums. LOTS of stuff there.

Thanks. But I'm looking for the touchwiz look... transparent glass.... I have LPI but it doesn't have what I'm looking for......very frustrating :/

[Q] Modifications for 240 HDPI

Hey guys!
I recently changed my DPI setting to 240 HDPI
Would like to know if there is anything you can do to get the JKay mod to be bigger on the lockscreen. Or at least make more buttons so it fills out the screen cuz it just looks bad specially when its in the center of the screen..
At least it would be nice to put the buttons on the bottom of the screen.
And for all you others who have 240 HDPI density, would be nice if u could post what u had to do to adjust the apps and mods to look good.. So we could have everythin in one thread. Lets see how many replies this thread gets and the i will edit my post so its more of a collection of links or sumthing for users who dont have a clue what to do when they change their DPI settings.

All I had to do was to get exDialer and a modded S-memo

Where did you get that modded S-memo? It's annoying as hell that the backgrounds don't work anymore after changing DPI. A plain white background is apparently build up of white lines, which get tore apart if you change DPI haha.

I also recommend ADW EX launcher, its awesome, so fast and smooth
Good luck mate

Thanks for the reply!!
Btw, LauncherPro also works great with lower DPI. Setting more columns makes for much more room for icons on the homescreens. And of course more info!
