Has anyone managed to create a new theme?
Hi there,
I've been using it for the past week now and really liking it. Will have a go at making a theme in the coming weeks
Thanks!
Ok ... some new theme to publish?
I wish the honeycomb theme didnt have the blue line, or from blue to white colour :X
but overall great lockscreen!
@Firezenk, I created these back in February and forgot all about it-
Its a blue bubble theme.
Feel free to do what you like to the images, i can also provide the psd if required.
Hope you like.
Edit: updated
I like the honeycomb theme, it goes well with my cm7

Good job
Little update - 6 more icons.
When you share screenshots with my icons in "Post your Home Screen" thread please send me PM with link.
These Icons were exactly what I was looking for and I didnt even know it.
Who says your phone needs to be boring to be fast??
look at the screenies below and ill guide you to get your desired look
without sacrificing speed.
first you should pick the best vanilla gb rom you can find.
id recommend roms by elelinux and the OMFGB rom you can find it in the android dev forums for the Hero g2.
Im using OMFGB after using elelinux also, but i like some of the cool options and mods omfgb has although elelinux rom is a bit more speedy.
now ill tell you the apps i got on my phone tht cause the look
1. Agile lock ---- For the Salsa sense lock screen.....really responsive, even better than stock sense rom for hero.
2. LP Slate Sense is the sense clock without the animation for less memory consumption there are apps tht include the animation but i dont recommend them.
3. ADW Launcher EX and gingerbread theme for system icons and adw elegant theme for the dock icons. to change dock i cons drag and drop the app and just tap and hold and tap on edit and then on the icon then on adw elgant and choose icon u wish to use
4. for speed turn off animations, use rom toolbox to zipaling apps and setcpu to change ur cpu frequencies to max the closest to 710 the app ur using allows not in the 700 better something like 680 and min to 310-360 and scaling to smartass
5. now get the theme chooser theme finder app from market and look for theme naked simplicity
6. now if you have any issues just post it here and ill help you
dont forget to thank if you found this post helpful
Are you trying to tell us that vanilla is boring? You can do literally anything with vanilla, you can be boring (most people like to call it 'minimalist') if you want, and you can be super complicated.
I prefer to go with the minimalist theme, and for me, sense is ugly, the only advantage is widgets, and I get them with LP+ anyway. This is my last screenshot.
Boring enough?
Whatever... Thanks for the guide, but that sort of stuff is pretty well known.

Man, please tell me how you got that theme working! I've been looking for something this minimalistic for ages, with slidescreen dead and such.

Andyt95 - could you write a few words about the setup? Looks like a killer to me. I recognize uber music widget, and I guess.. minimalistic text with variables for sms and missed calls.. the lockscreen is widget locker, right?

You're in luck that I write step-by-step instructions for most of my themes...
On the lockscreen is:
- widgetlocker
- missedit
- ubermusic 4x2 with Metro skin
- Cowon D3 slider
Homescreen
- Skinned mClock
- Missedit
- Ubermusic 4x1 with Metro skin
- some old dock which I found somewhere and I've had sitting on my phone for years.
Ok, follow these links for a bit, and you'll find out what's going on
lockscreen overlay and missedit.

UberMusic and the Metro skin are on the market.
Wallpaper
mClock skin The xml is called 'miui178' owtte
The CM7 theme is an edited version of Z25's MIUI theme.

Thing is most ppl with a hero are always waiting for a sense ui release for the lates firmware just for the look, because they think vanilla is boring. truth is vanilla is very custumizable and speedy..tht is what i was trying to show.....i would thank all you guys who post ur themes and looks for the hero here...to show tht vanilla is the bomb for looks and speed.
thanks ;D
Truth is, on older phones newer sense versions feel like bloatware. I've been waiting for months for froyo sense (with camera, how can one live without it?), ditched waiting, went vanilla.
Never felt regret about that, even for a moment. There are better things in life than sense
Anyways, I wanted to keep it under wraps for a while longer, but whatever, why not mention, since we're talking here vanilla-power, how about this:

(can't post image directly, cause.. well, for a while I have an xda-noob status. ekhm..)
It's my own homebrew theme, so I could use some constructive criticism. Cause after what I've seen in post#2, it makes me wanna change the decor completely..

Hey
i love the clock on your homescreen! I downloaded the xml... but the background of the clock is not there. Is that just photoshopped onto your wallpaper? or am i doing something wrong?
sl slate clock is a pay version there is a skin for fancy widgets for free in the market,,

there is no clock background, it's the overlay for the wallpaper. Read the attatchments properly, there is an overlay thing in there... I get the feeling that the only overlay there is the iPhone-y one straight from Chris, but I cba checking... I edited a few of the images Chris made, you can do it yourself, but if you really really want it and don't want to do anything yourself, I suppose I could do some digging...
Could someone please help me identify this skin for Beautiful Widgets?
And if possible, provide the link where I'll be able to download it?
I really like it a lot and hopefully I'll be able to get my hands on it
soon. Thanks!
That's not Beautiful Widgets, looks like a new Samsung Accuweather widget.

I know it was kind of a gimmick but 1 thing I miss about my old EVO is the weather animations that were on your screen after unlocking the phone. Not the weather wallpaper like they use now but the 1 that did it on top of whatever wallpaper you used. Is it possible to implement this on one of the 4.3 Sense roms? I would love to see it back.
Also, adding full transparency to the dock and weather clock widgets would be quite lovely.
And lastly, can more panels be added? I like to use widgets for everything so maybe making it possible to use up to 7 would be cool.
Please let me know what you think and if anyone would be willing.
All you Devs kick ass and I'm grateful for your work! Keep it up! I'll donate when I can!

It may not be exactly what you're looking for but...
For the Weather Animations and Transparency for clock widget: Beautiful Widgets + animation add-on
Transparent dock and adding more panels can be done with pretty much any 3rd party launcher (Nova, Apex, ADW, etc)

there are animations on the lockscreen (not very exciting but there) and as for trans dock what rom? and for trans weather widget how much trans(flips and panel ?)
I've been looking at the aftermath and badboy roms. The weather clock widget I'd like to see pretty much everything transparent except the weather icon.
alxrock I downloaded beautiful widgets and that actually works good! Thanks!

Glad to hear it worked good for you.
For the weather clock widget, are you looking for the 4x1 or 4x2 flip clock style?
I used HD Widgets for the 4x2 flip clock when I had my GNex and it has a bunch of customization options. (No flip animation though.
I attached a couple of examples of the more transparent options HD widgets has to offer.

Well I wanted both at first but now I'm thinking just the 4x2. I dig the weather deal so that one works perfectly for me. I'll have check out HD widgets too, thanks man!

Prism.apk from your rom. If you open your rom zip file look in system/app folder.
I also miss the full screen weather animations upon unlock. I wanna see my phone frost up!

You can use 420s Aftermath 2.2 if you want more screens(up to 7) their app drawer and drop down are semi trans.
Xposed installer and Sense 5 toolbox will give you more transparency options if you want.
As far as trans widgets, someone may make one for you if yiu ask the right person. dased offerd, and he is a master of that sort of thing. I too miss a few things, mine is the 4x2 weather widget. Guess theres some things we just learn to live without.

Get Beautiful Widgets Pro. It has TONS of different weather/clock widgets and it has the full screen weather animation. It's pretty close to the old Sense stuff.
