I'm using samsung galaxy note n7000 and i have been using custom roms on it. I just change each time from Paranoid Android to JellyBam each time there's and update. I decided to try out RootBox Rom (nightlies). I don't usually install nightlies but i did this and i noticed my icons where blurry. Normaly i use 260 or 280 dpi and its very clear, sharp and crisp. i thought this problem was from the nighlies version of the ROM so i switched back to PA. the problem was still there. I installed JellyBam 8.2.0 and this problem still remained.
Please Help, I don't know what to do
the phone looks a little ok when its at 320dpi but still blurry. not sharp as it used to be then its worse if i switch to 280dpi or lower.
the photo below is on 280dpi

to me they look ok, it might be the background due to which they seem bit blurry. you can try using icon themer from play store or icon pack and use them with any launcher. I am using this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gau.go.launcherex.theme.mnml&feature=search_result
you're on latest nightlies??.. I'ts a known bug on cm base rom and I think it has been fixed, flash the latest rootbox nightlies or chnge to other rom...

i'd post a different pic. this ones looks ok from the net, u need to see it from my phone.
its not just the icons on the launcher. also when i launch an app, u'd notice the blur.. I've used this phone for long and it has not been this way.
im running a stable build not nightlies.

This theme is for rbrucemtl's 'Fusion!ROM2.2', but currently only 5.1 and lower (although not tested on all of them). So will not work on the latest version. I do not plan on updating it, but the images are there in the theme for someone to take on and port to future versions of this ROM. Sorry to all that have been using it, but I don't have the time these days to keep on top of it.
For you 'FroydVillain' users Alex over at www.villainrom.co.uk has ported this over - http://www.villainrom.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=109&t=2627
All, bar a few of the images have been ported from the Galaxy S ROM. There are a couple of my own minor additions in there also. They have all been resized and 9.png'd so took some time to get them right.
Please note: I do not have that much time to do this sort of thing and I am not planning on updating it further as what I have is enough for me, but If someone else wants to take this and run with it, by all means be my guest
So... attached will give you a rough idea of what is themed. I have also themed the Desk Clock, and included modified notification icons for the Market and Messaging apps. I haven't included the icons you'll see for the apps, as haven't had a chance to update them all so thought better to leave them all out rather than have them half complete. However, I can suggest the 'Gala S' theme for 'ADW Launcher'. That will theme all the apps to the Galaxy S icons.
To achieve the look please follow the below:
Flash the attached theme 'Hero-GalaxyS-0.1.zip' (see below the post) from whatever recovery you are using.
You will then need to change following to white text (or other) in Spare Parts, or the CM Settings:
Clock
Date
Carrier PLMN
Carrier SPN
Notifications ticker
No notification title
Ongoing notification title
Latest notification title
Items title
Items text
Items time
Then as you will see in the screen shots I am using the 'TouchWiz' Launcher. I have not included this but you can obtain it from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735632. All credit to the guys who made that possible. It runs very smooth and is actually pretty damn good.
Please note: Samsung Widgets are not included.
Enjoy! ...and don't blame me if it breaks your phone. You should know how to nandroid by now.

Notes for Hero-GalaxyS
Not working for CM6 Nightly. loop boot.
Hmmm, I guess the framework is not transparent across all 2.2 ROMs. I have updated the thread to specify that this now only be for 'Fusion!ROM2.2' as that is what I am using it on and have not tested it on any other.
looks a greatheme, but boot loops on froyodvillain, hopefully some one can port this to it as i really want this theme.
Awweessoommee I will try on CM Nightly just incase it was the guy ^^above^^ that just had problems with it if not is it alright if i try porting it ?? oh and wow didt know it was possible to make the icons background on hero
EDIT: oh and which launcher do i need to use from the link?? the i9000 or the i5800 ??
EDIT2oohh i just remebered i made some status bar mods for galaxy s but could never try them out because i dont have the phone :L
EDIT3:Confirmed boot loop on nightly build :/

I think it's due to the framework, although both are 2.2 ROMs some of the devs modify certain files in there or they differ from they way it's built. So the theme would have to be made for each ROM. Sucks really.
On another note, it doesn't really work that well on FryodVillain as for some reason they have removed the options to change the text colour of the Clock, Date etc... so you just end up with a black clock in the task bar and some black text in the pull down menu. I'm not sure why they did that. I guess to make it as less like CM as possible :S

Both the i9000 and i5800 work fine on the Hero. Although the i5800 has a better fit on the icons and text in the app drawer. Both have the same features, so it's what you prefer really.
It will prob boot loop on any CM at the mo. I think once a final version comes out it'll be much easier to get a theme ready for any ROM, but in their current states, with constant updates it's difficult to keep up
Still the files are there ready to play with for anyone who may want to.
Sweet Thanks
Any chance of the lock screen ?

Not yet. None of them have been ported and I don't think they'd work until the whole ROM was ported over. I think some people might be looking at it but don't think it's gonna happen

i don't think it matters which nightly you theme because cynageon i dont think changes any of the framework so you wont need to keep updating the theme evry night when theres a new one :L
*Sorry i have had 3 posts of just me*
lol, that's cool.
With regards to the Lockscreen, I am not sure that can work either as it integrates with other Samsung apps, Phone, Messaging etc. However, as of yet I can't even find where it is in the ROM dump . If you get anywhere with it or the widgets let me know
Hope you dont mind, but ive asked on villain rom if anyone can convert it fo froyodvillian.

No not at all
I did originally do a version for FroydVillain, but they have not included the CM options to change the colours of the Clock, Date etc... so with the dark notification bar it looks a bit odd, not so much for the date but the clock looks like a blank space. Maybe someone there can edit the relevant xml file to change it or find a way to add in the CM Settings into the ROM.
UPDATED for the latest cog 2.3b3-its the last attachment(marked as 23b3) make sure you download the version that you are running or it will cause problems. Changed the circle batt in this version to the normal smooth green circle instead of the one shown. i think it matches a little better
Updated to work with Cog-2.3B-make sure you download the right one. The second attachment with 23b2 at the end is (obviously) for Cognition 2.3B2
The first attachment with no version at the end of the file name is for those who havent upgraded and are still on the older cog B9.
Im using a custom boot animation that matches this theme pretty well. It is the first one in this thread-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696193
Just got done making this theme for the captivate. This is a pretty full theme, also includes evo black bar, circle batt, and a nice notification pull down.
Its compatible with any cognition with the extended power options but the most recent 9.1.3 was the framework that was modified.
This took forever to finally finish.
Just put this on your internal SD and flash with clockwork. Will not wipe anything.
*Just fixed the icons in the power menu(airplane & silent)*
credit to DG for the rom this goes to
credit to fightspit for the circle battery
credit goes to faster3200 for a lot of the original images.
Looks nice! I'd love to try it out but I'm firmly of the belief that if it ain't broke don't fix it. I won't be messing with my phone again til something serious happens.
looks good. gonna backup and test it out
Love this man, get it working for DocRambone's v7 JPO rom too if it's possible
I like the looks of this better then any other theme so far.
Nicely done just did it to try it out worked perfectly

However, the icons on my lower bar didn't change. How do I get them to look like yours? e.g. mail, browser, apps...

did you try rebooting or anything. its really just modifying the images in framework file, all the other files(even the xml's) in the framework folder are exactly the same.
the only reason i say that is because i have 2 captivates, and every once in a while its like there stuck. sometimes its when going from wifi to 3g and sometimes its just
random and cycling airplane mode will fix it if not then a reboot does.
hey guys this is my very first time posting on this forum i have a captivate rooted and running cog 9.1.3 and just tried your theme and everything started to force close on me any idea what might have went wrong, thanks

never mind reinstalled and all is well good work.
Love the theme, one little problem, I can't see the clock, it's the same black as the status bar? Any thoughts? Should I just try reflashing?

Flashed a different theme then came back to this one, everything works great now.
works with the newest v2.3b cognition. no problems so far.
On reboot after install, phone seems to be stuck on the cognition splash screen, vibrating like something is force closing every 5 seconds or so. Any ideas? I am on cog 2.3b.
I was running CM9 Alpha 2 build for a long time and I got sick of the bad battery life so I flashed AOKP&CM9Remix with WebOS Style and the bottom of the text on my homescreen icons was cut off when the tablet was in portrait but in landscape all the text showed fine. I thought it was the ROM so I flashed [ROM][ICS:CM9] SGA's Fat'n Creamy Oct. 18/12 but I'm still having the same problem. Anyone know what the issue is?

I'm pretty sure it has to do with the grid size of your launcher settings. Not a problem with the ROM
Yeah, its a holo settings thing. I just turn off the labels. You could also try Nova Launcher... its my favorite!

i wanted the same thing too so i tried installing Xposed framework + TabletUI module
i soft rebooted the phone and i can see that TabletUI is applied, just that everything is oversized (till this stage, all is fine)
but when i tried to change the dpi using Density changer available on play store to 240dpi and reboot, i had bootloops....
so tablet ui actually works on stock rom...but somebody has to figure out a way to change dpi without causing bootloop
i had to restore my phone after applying 240 dpi...so DON'T CHANGE dpi!!!!!
Dude, tons of us have changed DPI... I myself have it at 320. 240 sounds incredibly low, though.
just wanna clarify, i dont wanna do this through DPI changing lol, i wanna keep everything in the same size/proportion, just a different layout, if you know what i mean....
I know this sounds stupid, but I really liked jb samsung stock messaging app, I miss it since on cm10.2
In cm there is only white theme. I installed 8sms, but it's slow and fonts can't be bigger.
Is there any chance for samsung stock msg to work in cm10.2?

It most probably need Touchwiz framework, that CM does not have. Use some theme - to make it black. Like this one for example https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.template.theme.ThyrusHoloBlack&hl=sr
I have installed it
Will check it in next days... but still the small font remains...
I tried it and don't like it, too dark
