Would people be interested in a darker version of the Settings, popups, and general UI of the ZF2 that the theme chooser doesn't affect?
I started working on something here for a preview:

You didn't tell how you will achieve this goal.
If it will be in the form of patches for system apps/framework, then i don't need.
ASUS actively updates ROM and system apps (even through google play) and patches will add instability and other side effects.
But at the same time i would be glad to see extended themes allowing to change system-wide GUI style if ASUS theme engine supports it.
There are patches for some GAPPS. While patched apps (dark theme) are looking nice, i found that with every update (and GAPPS updated very often) i had to look for new patched version or even wait for it. So, after several such iterations, i gave up and just got used to white theme.

Sorry to disappoint, but right now modding the system apps/framework is the only way to achieve this. Technically you could use the theme engine to mod the system app, but that defeats the purpose. The theme engine in its current state doesn't have permission to change these types of files.
The only thing that I'm changing in the settings files are color values so it hasn't added any instability. Hunting for these values though...
My goal for this was to make a temporary change to settings, but I could write a script to reupdate it after a new OTA rolls in.
Nice progress, would love to have all black menus, quicksetting and popups, autoblack gapps too if possible like Dark Material theme I was using with cm, no need for modded gapps
I won't be updating anymore, waiting for native linux for dual boot. I used the Light ZE550 Rom and striped it down to ~500Mb with everything working for VoIP and quickcharge; much more can be removed though especially if we use Nova launcher. Booting at 3.1-3.3Gb Free RAM with 720P resolution ; close to 50200 Antutu and 4320 Vellamo Browser. Especially that ASUS will lock the bootloader with upcoming releases, ART will not be replaced in the near future.

Instead of using this settings mod, it might be easier to use a module for xposed like this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2342570
I used something similar to Asus themes to edit settings theme, but the problem with this method that you cant edit everything with it, and many text colors hard coded in layout xml files which it cant be themed with RRO/Layers.
So for settings its better to make full apk and use it every update until Asus added new features to settings then you have to update it
And i tried to edit SystemUI and its hard compared to Samsung SystemUI or any AOSP SystemUI, Asus used .png and .9 files for pretty much everything in SystemUI Quick Settings which is ridiculous because if you added "Themes" to the ROM you should make easier to theme System apps to get more themes just like what Samsung did with S6 themes you can change everything in any stock app easily
That's my SystemUI theme

The same goes for xml editing. Even when I try to change one color for one text part, it ends up changing the color in someplace I don't want to to change.
Well i guess since CM12.1 has dark settings themes, this is moot now.

There must be a way to port CM themes to Stock. e.g. Dark Material, will try to contact app developer since I paid for that and we already exchanged many emails
CM has tons of bugs, can't stand it, I like more Asus's Framework and UI. Only changing the colors would be awesome. Asus can do that easily, you can join Asus Beta program to request anything, they also do phones and accessories drafts :laugh: :
http://www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=11202
http://www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=forumdisplay&fid=39
http://www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=13350&extra=page=1
I have been using CM for years and just realised how it lacked stock features, stability and compatibility.
At least, Asus responds pretty fast to any concerns [email protected]
Got my responses in under an hour from Asus while requesting a critical bug fix in CM for over 2 years did not give any result, mainly the unresponsive lockscreen bug that happens up to 8x a day. Guess what? It happened to my G2 since 2013 and still happened with my G3 last month and that is with the paid version of CM Updater LoL
I just feel shameful after gifting a phone with the latest cyanogenmod or installing it to a friend which kept telling me the phone is freezing in lockscreen.
Sure if you don't use your phone, you won't notice but I use it for everything, from University books, calls, VoIP, television, medical applications, car diagnostic to Office applications.
Imagine after writing a 2000 word text file, your device freezes or random reboots. I never had a single freeze or reboot with Stock ROM since this awesome phone was released except when using Amplify (Also delayed incoming calls and notifications) that I paid and removed soon after. Those are some of the reasons its better to stick with OEM ROM. Its the same story with modded Windows vs OEM Windows.
@aziz07
they can do that with themes but they have to edit some lines in settings and other stock apps also
they have to remove any hard coded color in layout xmls and relink any background color from framework to same app colors,like this
https://github.com/LayersTeam
In Galaxy S6 you can theme everything easily and they have also app to create themes for devs
But Asus did nothing they only implement RRO to the ROM and throw some themes in the store without working to make it better and easier for users to create themes
What happened to the dark menus screen shots in your post #6? Really liked that even more than monochrome dark material in cm.
Release it asap! Yalla xD

I want to thank those who have made a donation, I maintain the theme as best I can and update for new ROM updates as soon as I can, sometimes the workload of the day job causes some delays but I appreciate the donations from those who choose to do so, it means alot.
These screen shots are a little out of date now
feature / details requests / ideas, post them here.
Thanks particularly to drpfenderson, djengizz, AndroidAppCritic & garok89 for their help along the way, and anyone who threw in ideas that I've neglected to mention.
I've called this 'MarksTheme' because I'm Mark, and I made most of this theme.
I'm not really into the codewriting of it all, infact I rarely venture into so much as an XML, but I do like things to look nice.
I'm a fine-arts photographer by profession, a very visual person, I make and source png's and bring them together in this theme as whatever I feel looks nice.
Thanks particularly to drpfenderson maker of Enoch and EnochX which got me started
consider all releases as Beta, they are stable but may have issues
CURRENT RELEASE = 4.2.15.1 rev C
Previous version of basic theme - 4.2.14.1.a (100% good)
Optional Themed Gmail - Gmail (save it to your sd card, install it with a file explorer such as andexplorer).

Problems?
If you are asking for help, try and help yourself first.
flash a rom, make sure the rom works, flash the theme, make sure the theme works, flash extras and check that they work.
'repair ext filesystems' helps the 'stuck at G1 bootscreen' thing.
'fix_permissions' can help problems with forcecloses.
clearing caches helps with software freaking out.
Theme problem? reflash the theme.
Still a problem? reflash the ROM, then the theme.
Bigger problem? reflash HTC 1.6, then the ROM, then the theme.
Big-Ass problem? Wipe, reflash HTC 1.6, then the ROM, then the theme.
Holy F*****g Crap? Format and repartition your SD, Wipe phone, reflash HTC 1.6, then the ROM, then the theme.
It's up to you to go out there and find out how to do these things properly.
When asking for help, people need to know,

FAQ's
After installing it's taking forever to boot up - it can take up to 30 minutes to get past the G1 screen sometimes with a first install
My Gmail isn't coming in automatically - clear gmail cache and data, then reboot, usually fixes it
I applied the themed google apps and something isn't working - flash the standard google apps from HERE
It all went to crap and I didn't make a nandroid backup - then you're a muppet.
I've got a problem and I want you to fix it - aint happening, first thing you should do is look through this thread, or search through it, if you have no luck then look in threads for other themes for the same ROM, if that fails then put up a shout in here, maybe I can help, maybe someone smarter than me can help, maybe.
Can you change X? I don't like it. - short answer = no. Long answer = this theme is how I like it, I listen to all ideas and suggestions and maybe I'll change something based on that if I like the idea or enough people ask for it, thats why there are three versions of the lockscreen and no lockscreen in the basic theme, also there are a load of custom launchers. When I have the time I make pretty stuff.
Who the hell are you anyway? - google is your friend, it ain't hard.

I'm releasing two wallpaper packs of my photography.
These packs are in zip files, unzip to a suitably named folder on your SD card and then navigate to the image you want to use in your phone.
Please remember folks that this photography is how I make my living, therefore these wallpapers , photographs and the packs they are distributed in Exclusively By Me may not be re-distributed, altered, manipulated or changed in any way, nor may they be claimed or implied to be the property of or the work of anyone else.
The first wallpaper pack isn't family friendly, therefore you need to click HERE to see the index of images and HERE to download the zip
You may only do so if the laws of the country you reside in say that you are old enough to look at boobs
The second wallpaper pack is totally family friendly, the index image is shown below, and the zip can be downloaded HERE
(Yes, one of the photos in there ended up twice, I can't be bothered with changing it )

These are a few apps that I use and like, no affiliation blah blah blah, some are free, some are paid (c'mon, they're cheap!), search for them in Android Market, in no particular order:
CacheMate clears your cache, either when you tell it to or periodically, sweeet.
Pure Calendar Widget (agenda) the neatest and most configurable I've found.
PowerTime Widget the best chance you've got of predicting how much juice is left in your battery
Advanced Task Manager among it's many cool features is an auto-kill for running apps (with an ignore list), nice.
File Explorer (Quick Finder) for exploring your files, and, erm, quick finding them, I guess..
GDE - The new home experience! that cool cube homescreen thing, you know it, it's sweet dude.
Bettercut custom icons for your shortcuts
Handcent SMS (NEW) the nicest (and now very configurable and customisable) messaging app.
WeatherBug Elite Weather prediction is important in my work, this has sh1tloads of data
MyBackup Pro does what it says
Screenshot ditto
Snowstorm Weather Widget this one stands out because it'd 4x1 can 4 days or split the day into 4 periods, so the displayed weather prediction is accurate to 6 hours instead of 24 (it's gonna rain today huh? when?) see what I mean?
Backup for root users another backup thingy
Overclock Widget keep it nice and easy when the screen is off, then ramp that puppy up when you're using it!
Nightwatch when I plug my phone into my charger, anytime between midnight and 6am (configurable), it automatically fires up a nice bedside clock, win!
Sticky Memo Widget Pro I have a rubbish memory, I like notes...
Retro Clock Widget pretty clock widgets
gTasks google tasks, nice to-to list
Steel browser, prefer it to stock
Y5 Battery Saver learns where your preferred wifi is at and turns wifi off when you're not there, thus saving juice (doesn't use GPS)
Quickpedia wikipedia app, because I like to look clever by knowing stuff about stuff
Twit2go twitter client, like it.
If anyone wants to include any of their free apps with my theme, let me know and if I like it we're on, I can also be bribed with pounds stirling, guinness, chocolate muffins and naked girls.

Done - MarksTheme-4.2.1.SL.a (includes Stericson Lockscreen) for cyanogen 4.2.1
Thanks Mark
U know I was waiting on this to make my phone complete
Like the red in the loading bar better then the blue. The black background u had in the keyboard was better to me
Thanks for your time and hard work to make this theme

Loving this theme, too many people don't take the time to make nicely rendered icons and widgets.
Power control widget = sick.
One thing though, I noticed there are "ghost" images in the app drawer (images of the apps above it). Is that on purpose?

which is the red/blue loading bar? maybe I missed something....
not sure about the red background myself, I added it after changing the buttons so they'd stand out, might shift them back onto black in next update.
I have no idea what I'll be doing next probably just tweaking and improving this one as I don't really have time for a whole new theme. all suggestions for tweaks and improvements gratefully received!

ok, I'll check it out, I just saw it too on mine.
Good to know it's not just me.
Ok, after messing with it, I got a few suggestions for the next release.
1. The background for the keyboard would look good either completely transparent or an opaque black, like the app drawer.
2. Do away with the "hypnotizing eye" loading animation and use something, cleaner and with more pop. This theme is way too clean to be using somthing that looks like a runic symbol.
3. For the app drawer pull tab, use either white, black or red. White would be best because it would look like the glow was coming from your trackball (which, on my MT3G, it does.)
4. Also, has anyone thought to make the pull tab look like the notification bar? that would make a clean and simple border for both ends of the screen, and give it some unification and symmetry.

can you incorporate this in this!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=576310
it makes contacts on incomin and outgoing bigger.. i like it..
so this is what i have been messing with for the past few days since i think not so super froyo has hit a point that im happy with for the moment
my goal with this build is to get rid of as much of the unneeded apps as possible and shrink the system down as small as it can.
things that are removed from the initial install that are in fresh froyo
-HTC_IME
-Gmail, google search, voice search and pretty much every other google app that can now be installed from the market
-as always live wallpapers and launcher 2 are gone
- the how to use android widget
- their are no other wallpapers or galleries installed on this build too their are plenty of the apps on the market for that
- THIS BUILD IS ENGLISH AND SPANISH ONLY!
things that are in it
- a new blue theme i have been working on (some of the .png's are from losteden, vellowax and some other various themes), its pretty close to perfect but their might be a few hiccups still
- ADW is still the launcher of choice and its still in /data for easy removal
- a different themed clock
- zip align on first boot
- astro and rogue tools are both installed in /data
known issues
- ADW still does the could not load widget error like in Not so super
I was going to odex this build but wasnt able to get the ADB driver to work correctly (if somebody does manage to get it Odex'd feel free to post it)
Also this was merely a test to see how light i could get it and it ended up being decently stable, i don't know how much updating i am going to do to it.
RLS2
-car home and car home launcher removed
-music player removed as their are tons of replacements in the market
- now odex'd
New in odex'd RLS3
-street.apk is now removed since maps is also gone
- voicedialer is also gone seeing at the newest version of voice search on the market can voice dial also it seems pointless
- lowered the volume on the camera shutter noise
RLS4
- newer version of fresh froyo (thanks scooter)
- Now using ADW standalone with a myn warm twopointtwo inspired look
- Flutey phone ringtone now include by default
- different wallpaper this time around
- bright blue themed desk clock
- more "sensible" notification drawer
RLS5
-fixed facebook sync
-fixed the graphical issue with the status bar highlights being green instead of blue
-added the blue keyboard from my Galaxy S theme/port (delete key is a little small but the keyboard file size is overall smaller.
-new boot animation that goes better with the theme

here is an odex'd version of the build, the music player is also removed seeing as there are a ton of free options for that on the market that do it better
also this is untested as far as data and sms, it should work fine ( i did check to make sure there was not a call hang issue)
ODEX DOWNLOAD RLS5
right on good job, i was wondering how long before someone would make a stripped down version. ive been using
Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2.1 [Deodexed] [RLS13] and removed all the same aps you have aswell as camera, bluetooth, car home rogue tools..think thats it....ive also installed 2-3 apps. i managed to have 37mb free after boot up but it slowly works its way down to 20-27mb throughout the day even with closing all open applications and emptying caches....once i reboot its fine again..
do you happen to know how much space if freed up on nand on this?
im digging the blue theme too
I understand that ADW is your launcher of choice, but in a build like this, meant for speed and being light weight why wouldn't you use LauncherPro? Again, I know it's your preference but it's just a thought. The fact that it can be removed easily is great as well as I'll be grabbing LauncherPro after the install. I just always thought ADW was a bit slower than LauncherPro. Anyways, thanks for this! I was waiting for a build like this and the closest was freshFroyo which was a little too bland
thoughtlesskyle,
I like your ROMs, each new release is faster and nicer
Could you add a more advance power control widget like the CyanogenMod ROM?
Could you add some advance settings similar as the CyanogenMod Settings?
Keep going on with the good stuff.
Love this build, light and fast! The blue theme is soo refreshing especially in the messaging app, i got sooo bored of the grey and black.
I really like the blue theme including the notification bar with battery indicator, any way to use it on your main rls? Can you post an update?

my reasoning for using adw is simple, so version 1.1.5 doesnt feel too clunky too me and also i feel that launcher pro takes away alot of functionality unless you buy the full version, things like resizing widgets and that stuff are all locked in the free version where as ADW doesnt have that issue

as far as adding those settings i dont think i can CM builds are built off a modified source code, so like they dont use a services.jar for theming and stuff
what i can do though is i can strip down a version of the CM6 port and theme it you will just have to to adjust the clock color and notification ticker color in CM settings
and last but not least any apps you guys would like to see removed for a next build?
and im really glad you all like it, and the total file size of this androidinstall.tar is 69.5MB's Not So Super 91.2 all languages, so a considerable space savings

right on good job, i was wondering how long before someone would make a stripped down version. ive been using
Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2.1 [Deodexed] [RLS13] and removed all the same aps you have aswell as camera, bluetooth, car home rogue tools..think thats it....ive also installed 2-3 apps. i managed to have 37mb free after boot up but it slowly works its way down to 20-27mb throughout the day even with closing all open applications and emptying caches....once i reboot its fine again..
do you happen to know how much space if freed up on nand on this?
im digging the blue theme too

look in the market for an app called hot reboot, it reboots just the shell of android (closes all apps and processes just like a restart) and takes just a few seconds
thoughtlesskyle said:
my reasoning for using adw is simple, so version 1.1.5 doesnt feel too clunky too me and also i feel that launcher pro takes away alot of functionality unless you buy the full version, things like resizing widgets and that stuff are all locked in the free version where as ADW doesnt have that issue

Ah, makes sense. I tend to forget about these things considering I bought launcherpro. Again, thanks fr this ROM. It is really stable and really fast.

I love having stripped down builds, but the HTC_IME is a must for me. I think that's the only thing holding me back from trying this (currently using your rls17).
Is there an apk for the HTC_IME (for 240x320 resolution) around anywhere? All the HTC_IME apk's I keep finding are the wrong resolution and look like crap on 240x320.
Or is there some other way to install the HTC_IME other than through an apk?
Edit: I think I found it in the system apps. I'll just try throwing it into this build and seeing if that works. Haha!

Are you going to release an all language version?
It's not easy to type a SMS in dutch (or other language) because of T9 is always on.

i didnt plan on making a full language one only because it would take up alot more space on the system, did you try turning the text prediction off in settings?
and if enough people want all languages i can do it but like i said this was kind of a one off project, and im also still playing with it to see what else i can strip out

Do you know which files I need to add or update for all languages?
What I found with comparing fresh froyo the EU and ALL are the following files:
system\framework\framework-res.apk
..\resources.arsc
..\META-INF\CERT.SF
..\META-INF\MANIFEST.MF
..\res\raw-*
system\lib\libicudata.so
* all languages
I thought that the resources.arsc is modified for 1% battery in your EU ROM.
May be someone can do the same modification in the resources.arsc of the ALL Language ROM.

I had the same problem, therefor I ask this if someone knows how to do this without bootloop.
Special Note: I no longer have my Fascinate (or any other at the moment), so theming is postponed until I get everything caught up and get a new Fascinate. My apologies, just a series of unfortunate events. I'll still be around keeping up and can help with questions and other themers as needed.
NOTE: I will be busy creating a new theme now that I figured out how to edit xmls to change font colors (now to figure out which edits are needed for the effects I want) *huge thanks to tiger4life for pointing me in the right direction).
I had to go all the way back to stock to get stock apks to work with since I accidentally overwrote my original backups *now I have redundant backups so that can't happen, gotta love terabyte drives Thanks to all who have or will use this theme and have donated. I appreciate it very much.
I have been slowly modding my Fascinate I thought it time I share what I have so far. My theme was designed for a DeOdexed system, you can load one of the already DeOdexed roms available or you can manually do it yourself, if you haven't already. I manually DeOdexed my sysem using the method found here.
Lots of pngs from the ANDRODeNa GaLaSSiA theme
Of course started with BlackMod by stanrc.
Added the 3G Round Signal Icon
Used the UOT Kitchen to get a modified Z series circle battery (pulled pngs from the created ROM)
a few files from the awesome work of thatdudebutch's awesome looking [Theme] Dark Gloss Mod, Thanks Brother!
I owe a huge SHOUTOUT to tiger4life for the (MOD) Add Reboot Option to Power Menu w/ the accurate battery option. Thank you my Man!
Big thanks to Reefermattness for the Darkness theme for the Captivate,
Additional thanks to frostman89's Nexttheme Airplane mode icons, and any other artist that I have not included because I have no idea where some of the files came from.
Theme attached adds the following new functions:
1. AppWidgetPicker
2. (MOD) Add Reboot Option to Power Menu
APK's Modified:
DialerTabActivity by CrushD (points to google Voice vs Visual Voicemail)
MediaProvider
Vending
Email (Menu 4 now)
Gmail (Menu 4 now)
framework-res
twframework-res
Also modifies Shutdown animation/video (Samsung vs Verizon)
I themed LauncherPro Plus with Ninjamorph (in Market), it is not included in this theme as I load it in system/app vs the default data/app location (it's my only launcher) and not everyone likes nor wants LauncherPro.
This is verified working on my system, I make no such guarantee for yours. You flash at your own risk. I accept no responsibly if your phone fails to start, dies a horrible death, explodes or any variation thereof.
Before you flash, MAKE A BACKUP. Your phone may take a bit longer to load after flashing, this is normal.
Also if you want the puzzle lock or sliding glass lock screens, follow the directions from this post. It works!
UPDATE: Minor tweaks, namely the puzzle lock screen. Made the sliding puzzle piece semi-transparent.
Attempted to change the phone keypad sounds. If anyone knows what xml's need to be modified I would appreciate it as I have not been able to locate where the changes need to be made, other than changing out the ogg files in "system/media/audio/ui".
UPDATE [10/07/2010] - V4.3 uploaded, due to size uploaded to alternate server now. (Link below screenshots) Themed email and gmail menu's. Few minor tweaks to framework and vending apk's. Removed earlier versions.
UPDATE [10/07/2010]x2 - Uploaded Storms Black Reboot Theme v5.0 - this is the same as v4.3 except it also includes the power options mod with working circle battery! Again thanks tiger4life!
UPDATE: [11/17/2010] - Been so busy creating new theme I spaced uploading updated version that has market buttons text fixed to white vs black on black. Version 5.2 available now. Also a huge THANK YOU! to sonofskywalker3 for adding this under his wonderful ROM!
Still to do:
1. Get text color fixed, still having issues.
2. Get reboot mod to work with accurate battery mod (anyone who can help will very much be appreciated) Thank you Tiger4life!
3. ?
If I helped you or you appreciate my work, please feel free to Buy me some time.

Another MetaMorph to change Circle or Bar Battery images to Analog style as found in my DJ05 theme. This will only work on this version.

I agree, I have been attempting to find the xml(s) that affect the font color.
If you or any other can point me in the right direction that would be awesome, have spent days searching xda/google and combing through the xmls in the vending apk without success so far (obviously).
Looks awesome, nice work! Can I flash this over any rom?

post #26 says the following...
"The buttons in the app pull from your framework. The buttons you see in the pic are from my theme."
Whether this will help or not I have no idea, personally i have no experience with editing xml's or themes at all... If you want anything tested just let me know.

I just had a quick question. Extremely new to rooting so bare with me here...
Before I flashed this theme, i had the Remix Incognito theme posted under the theme section for the fascinate. I had that theme installed, and just flashed the Storm Blackish theme over the old one. Everything seemed to work great, except the "preferences" and "notifications" icon in the home screen menu didnt change and they are just grey. Also, the font from the old theme did not change to the font of the Storm Blackish theme. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for trying my theme. The "preferences" and "notifications" are controlled by LauncherPro and not by the framework. I used ninjamorph (available in market to replace those I'll attach them so you can to The are named appropriately for easy exchanging.
The fonts used are the same as what the fascinate ships with, I didn't change them, so the remix must have.

Right now its close on being perfect, just needs a few more xml files modding and a little more theming ......
The keyboard when writing a message is white on white ....
The vibrate icon needs theming in framework
The bluetooth is red and totally our of place, it needs to be themed honeycomb..
The buttons would look better green like the original honeycomb
The battery and signal and wifi would be better like my Beautiful Honeycomb ....
The pulldown does go back up either, you have to press the back button .....
Just my views that's all, no offence meant

Yeah I had this problem on my Original honeycomb, I used black backgrounds and changed the text to white, this caused so many problems with some white on white text .....
Im sure with som updates it will be sorted ...
Your lockscreen is awesome by the way, really nice touch
Maybe we could combine themes to make a complete one ..
I'll do some theming of my own and post some screens and see what you think ...
I wont pass any of my work on to others of course, If you like it maybe you will include it

Actively updated for 2+ years, the PCB series of themes return to Lollipop! With that same dedication, exquisite details have been applied to an extensive amount of elements. We're talking Material Light + Dark, PCB graphic images in the notification dropdown and various backgrounds, as well as 3 different styles of keyboards.
That's not all though, as a full theme support for Holo is included! Many developers have not quite updated their apps to use Material design, and in this case, they'll still look gorgeous due to PCB supporting Holo Light + Dark.
► Custom, unique 8-bit boot animation
► "Exo", a sharp, easy-to-read font
► Wallpaper and Lock Wallpaper
► Techy ringtone and notification sounds
► Works with Tablet UIs!
► Full system, Material & Holo (Light + Dark)
► Calculator
► Contacts // Dialer // Phone
► Android Keyboard (3 styles to choose from)
► Settings
► Trebuchet Launcher
► CM Updater & Theme Chooser
► More features and colours in future updates!
All of the above amounts to what is basically a 4-in-1 theme (Material + Holo // Light + Dark for both), delivering outstanding value at a low cost. Don't forget that the CM12 Theme Engine supports the ability to mix-n-match theme components, so use few, many, or all!

Change Log is found via the PCB Mini-Site link above
Due to the nature of Theme Chooser, it is not possible to put multiple colours into one theme
» Google Play
* Note that currently only PCB Blue is available for CM12 -- More colours to follow!
Simply install the theme from Google Play, then navigate to SYSTEM SETTINGS --> THEMES, and apply the PCB colour theme you just installed. If you have any issues with applying the theme, or some elements are not styled, simply perform a full REBOOT.
Please note that while a huge amount of elements are themed, you may come across certain ones that were not. This is most likely due to the fact that the Theme Engine cannot quite style them yet, but I will continue to do my best to update it once available.
You may also sometimes see 'out of place' colours, which were used to target certain elements, however I did not find all of them (they might not even be used), but if you do, please include a full-resolution screenshot and post it to the Google+ community.
A _massive_ amount of work has been put into this theme, and I am sincerely doing my best to get it to perfection. Please consider this when leaving your rating! Hope you enjoy, thanks!
Looks good. It looks a lot like the mixer theme I take it he "borrowed" some of your images

He didn't end up "borrowing" them, as I had given him permission previously. The PCB theme of mine above is 'pure' and of my original work. MrDSL is a great guy though, as I had kindly asked him to remove my PCB elements from his market versions of Mixer, to which he peacefully obliged. Mixer can still be found with my PCB images, however the 'official' version is the one that I'll be maintaining on Google Play. It has been about 1.5 years in the making, and I have never been able to ask for a cup of coffee for it before (due to it formally being a flashable .zip).
Anyways, glad you like, and please do remember that I'll be working hard to maintain and improve this theme. Couple of things planned are more system app styling (MMS/E-Mail/Contacts/etc.), as well as develop new colour schemes once the main design is near-complete.
Cheers and please help spread the word by Tweeting + Rating the app if you grab it from Google Play, thanks!!
Hi! Pretty cool theme. Looks very nice on the AOKPCB!!
Would be possible a CM7 version? :B
Keep up the great job!

Thanks for the kind words clockworkninja!! I'm not sure if it would work on CM7, as that is Gingerbread and has many different resources when compared to ICS...I won't rule it out, but chances are slim
Hey scar - as you may remember I'm a big fan of your theme. Currently running AOKPCB Nightlies on my Sensation and using the CM9/Theme Chooser version on my A500.
Everything is great, one tiny thing bothering me though...it's the status bar on my A500. When I first bought the theme all was ok but after update the circular circuit icons under Back - Home - Recent Apps are off center. At least I'm pretty sure they weren't like that at first...Upon opening something "fullscreen" like pictures or movies they are correctly placed but after returning home they are offset vertically again.
After last update my status bar Back Home and Recent backgrounds are still a bit offset and the notifications/toggles area has some parts bright blue.

Hi HunnyBearLewis,
I can confirm what you're seeing with the bright blue parts of the notification area. This is a result of me getting back to the Tablet UI, and I ran out of time yesterday to completely address it I will be doing my best to get that looking proper, but it does seem that the CM Theme Engine has some issues with tablet layouts (they weren't around in CM7).
Otherwise, with the notification button spacing, I believe this may be an issue that stems from AOKP, as I have not changed any metrics for spacing, or even image dimensions (they're the same as stock, just with my design). I'll still keep it in mind though and try to address it. FWIW, on my TF101, the navbar buttons appear a lot closer to each other, but then again, I have 5.
Anyways, I know I haven't said much helpful stuff, but I'll always be working to improve/fix these issues! Thanks for your patience and reporting.
can you make the keyboard a separated flashable zip? so i can flash it in my dx
Hi all,
I just wanted to post up a quick note to let you know that I always check this thread and I always take everyone's recommendations seriously (and thank you for them!). There are a few issues with v1.0.4 (the current version) of the theme, mainly with the Tablet UI notification popup area (blue glitch), and I hope to fix those for the next update.
Life is a struggle for me (as I'm sure it is with many), but as I am a freelancer and work for myself (mainly doing web design/hosting), it is tough for me to dedicate a huge amount of hours to the theme. That said though, it is truly a passion of mine as I also use the PCB theme myself. I will always continue to work on improving it, but please please be patient.
Understandably, website design + hosting is a bit more lucrative than my theme in the Market, BUT I sincerely want to thank everyone who has purchased it, as it really means a lot to me. Please help me by rating the theme and also tweeting/spreading the word about it. I've still got some nice plans for the future, and I will surely work them into the theme over time.
Thanks again for reading this, I just wanted to give everyone a heads-up as to why I haven't been as active as I was over the past few weeks (although I hope that will change!).
Cheers!
Great theme. Found a bug with the usb debugging icon in the notification pull down.
Found a couple more bugs with the battery style. The battery bar in the status bar style doesn't work. It's blank instead of showing it. And here's a couple of glitches with different battery styles. And wouldn't it look better if the battery was blue to match the theme, unless perhaps it's charging or close to dying? That's my opinion at least. This is an hdpi device, by the way. Also, not too fond of it changing the wallpaper. Sorry for the long list

Thanks PonsAsinorem, I know the battery icons are a bit messed up, so I will fix that for the next version (revert the other 'non-circle mod' icons back to stock), although I'm not too sure I'll make them blue just yet (other priorities and fixes to be done first).
In terms of that USB Debugging Icon background within the pulldown list, I have seen it before with other apps too, but I still cannot find where that image is located. It has eluded me for the longest time, but I'll go on another hunt soon
Otherwise, I hope these can be considered minor issues, but I'll definitely try to fix them quickly too.

Hi Spyr0s, I can confirm this, and my goal was to fix Pons' issues (via that screenshot previously) with the Battery Text Mode. Looks like another thing I cannot fully solve, so it's going to be one way (no CM9 circle battery icon) or the other (battery text modes will be borked).
Please leave your thoughts as to what you might prefer, because my goal is to always take feedback that would help make PCB better.
On a side note, the Tablet UI issues have been fixed, and a few other change log items have been added to v1.0.5 of PCB Blue. Here's the Google Play change log:
• Fixed incorrect battery icons being shown on anything other than "CircleMOD" option
• Improved keyboard background scaling on different DPIs / tablets
• Colourized soft keys/navbar icons to match theme colour
• Optimized resource XMLs
• [TABLET UI] Fixed display issues with Notification Area
• [TABLET UI] Created a new status bar background
• [TABLET UI] Improved spacing of notification buttons / softkeys
► Please remember to (re)rate to help our listing r0ank!
Hope you're still enjoying it...Cheersch!

The issue you are trying to fix is an AOKP bug, not a theme issue. Theme Manager was created by CM9 team for CM9 ROMs, if themes are not working correct then AOKP must find a way to fix it rather than just copy the CM9 code.
With your solution in 1.0.5 every CM9 user is being left with unthemed battery icon. I've used Blue Infinitum theme with AOKP and "Icon only" gives you themed icon, "text only" gives you themed text and "Circle Mod" gives you stock battery icon and of course CM9 works fine.
If it's borked due to improper aokp implementation, I'd switch it back. Don't want to short change other users because of it. And I don't use those modes anyways, I was just testing and looking for bugs. Apparently the status bar battery bar does work, you just have to go back in and reset your option and reset the color, even though it's selected. Perhaps we need to get with aokp about their implementation of the theme engine to figure out how best to solve this, for completeness sake. Thanks for working on this.
Hey guys, thanks for the follow up, and helping me understand what exactly is going on here. Keep in mind, I never want to deprive anyone from features/functionality in my theme, however as we know, all ROMs are not created equal (that would be pretty boring wouldn't it?!).
I'll run some more tests, etc., and try to come to a happy solution that doesn't screw with anyone too much Will update with more as I make progress.
Have a great weekend in the meantime all!

Try switching to the System Theme first, then Reboot immediately. Once you're back into Android, try applying PCB Blue again. The theme doesn't have any 'device-specific' resources, so it should work provided your ROM with Theme Chooser support is built properly.
Please let me know what happens.
