Sure there is...
I'm talking theoretically but I'll check that...
There's animation folder and we could check that...
I doubt it would be enough to just add files you should add them to ids to but it could be done.

I like that there's more space for viewing the wallpaper
Other than that it looks really nice, but maybe you can show more features about sms/settings etc.? Or aren't they skinned? And is that the start-menu you have opened on one of the screenshots?

new sms, email and missed calls are shown when recieved at the top, were the date and time is, once clicked these open the message or the missed call. And as for settings, the system dock taks you to the main features of the settings and the network on the start panel taks you to the comms manager. to me thats the main ones i use. Yeah that is the start menu, not really sure it fits in with the theme but i made one as propose to the quick launch menu which at the moment doesnt contain anything.
Looks very interesting.
But what is this exactly? Where and how will this be used?
But looks very great!

This is Wisbar advance desktop 2 (WAD2) it allows you to skin the home page, Wisbar advance 3 (WA3) will allow you to skin the taskbar, icons and prgrams so combine them both together and you have yourself a new skin!
These programs allow you to skin the old boring windows mobile look, and allows you to add shortcuts to the homepage, sliders, meters and transitions.
Its a very good App, but unfortunatly it aint free to buy!
Damn dude, this one looks great! I love the originality!
But: where did you get this picture of my girlfriend?
Dude. I love this! Btw, I can replace your wallpaper right? I love it but too many colors for my taste. I like black and white and dark colors.

love this theme, quick question....could you install the theme using the Diamond TF3D Config app?
Thanks for ur answer on the "Diamond today screens" topic wez89 !
And have some short question about this :
- Does WAD2 totally substitute TF3D?
- Can we use them both together ? Or we have to choice between WAD2 / TF3D ?
- And if not, does ur skin include same functions than TF3D (like Meteo, Programs launcher) ?
Anyway, ur Skin is one of the most beautiful i've ever seen for our device, keep up ur great work !
(And sorry for my poor english & noob questions)

your welcome, and im afraid this is a different application to touchflo. although you could use it as aa second today screen and link this with touchflo but not sure wt performance and battery usage would be.
i feel this is alot better than touchflo as its completly skinable and you can basically do wt u want.
Its a very nice theme! Great job!
But i have problem, when i press the arrow for the programbar it dosent work, it just popup an transparant emtyp "box". And i dont know what the bottom arrow should do. i also get some errors when i click on the messege thing
This theme is FIRE(very nice)

[THEME] Gingerbread for Defrost 6.1a, CM 6.1.1 and Oxygen 1.0.4 AOSP (4/1)

Gingerbread for Defrost 6.1a, CM 6.1.1 and Oxygen 1.0.4 AOSP
For those still running Froyo I’ve created a theme that replicates the stock gingerbread look.
This has taken me a long time to compile and maintain. It was not as simple as copying files from one APK to the other; it required xml editing, icon design and much probing into the gingerbread SDK to find all these files to bring you the most accurate Gingerbread look.
If you use this and like this please donate.

What you get:
Stock Gingerbread
Status icons – System, Gmail, Email, Messaging, Market
App Icons – Browser, Phone
Gingerbread keyboard
Nexus S live wallpapers (Thanks AdamG)
Black menu background with correct text colour and vertical dividers
General framework including tick-boxes, menu pop-up
New dialer
Launcher2 themed (DeFrost only, for Oxygen and Cyanogen(MOD) use this one)
Enhancements
Smooth 100 step charging and discharging animations
Smooth refresh
Smoother spinner animation
Green notification overflow background
Green progress bars
Ability to change lockscreen backgrounds
Gingerbread style notification power widget
Black MMS.apk (Oxygen – not CM port but modded stock)
Metamorphs
Battery percentage Mod 1 (square font)
Battery percentage Mod 2 (rounded font)
White Status icons (as if not connected to Google servers in GB)
Green Icons (Revert)
No Battery Percentage (Revert)
Downloads
Instructions – not for Metamorphs
You have to be rooted to install these custom roms – if you are not rooted head to XDA and they should be able to help.
I can only support ROMs for the HTC Desire, however the Cyanogen(MOD) framework is very similar across the board. I believe porting to other HDPI devices is not hard and you are free to attempt this with these files.
Download the desired files to your SD Card, if you are on Cyanogen(MOD) or DeFrost you will also need to place the Colour config file “Gingerbread.xml” in /sdcard/CMTheme/
As with all flashable zips a NANDROID backup is recommended.
Flash the *.zip file either with ROM Manager or through recover as you would a ROM. You do not need to unzip these files.
Reboot the phone
If using Cyanogen(MOD) or DeFrost you will need to apply the colour theme (Settings > CyanogenMod settings > User interface > Tweaks extras > “Select Theme” > “Gingerbread”)
Enjoy your Gingerthemed Froyo
Instructions – for Metamorphs
To use the Metamorphs you need to have you desire S-Off’d and you must download Metamorph from the Market. Once you have this it’s pretty straight forward.
If you don’t have S’Off or can’t get Metamorph to work you can merge the files from a Metamorph into a theme (framework-res.apk) and then flash the theme through recovery.
I hope to write a tutorial on how to do this some time in the future.

Sorry to ask what is likely a silly question, but where are the global text colours defined? I can't for the life of me find the config for the menus - all my popup menus are black-on-black in my attempt at this for CM6.1. :/

Use the xml colour file from the blog (you need to right click and download)
You should be able to rip all the "drawable-hdpi" files with no probs.

For CM
Try these 2 files - You need this colour file too (Copy to /sdcard/CMTheme) then sellect in CMSettings. (Right click and save-as)
For CM6.1 - Desire - Flash in recovery then apply colour file.
Grey CM6.1
Green CM 6.1
If they work, please let me know!

That works for most of the UI, but the CMtheme stuff doesn't affect menus;
Is there a workaround?

I can't find the fix for this. I think it's in styles.xml search "panel" and remove the "inverse part", but this didn't recompile properly. I'm just using the old white menu pop-ups.

This is a more thoroughly themed file. Unfortunately I can't post screenshots as I'm not at my computer. To get the keyboard to work you might need to clear the cache of the keyboard app.
Let me know what you think.

Hello There!
I really like this new look, however I think there are a few things wrong.
First, the notifications bar is a really dark black in 2.3 (I have looked at the pictures and tried the GingerNinja ROM) while this is more grey.
Second, the headset icon (I know that you cannot do anything about it since you only have the SDK and not the source code)
I think that's about it..
As I said, I really love this, and I greatly appreciate the effort you have made to port this! I'd love to see some more of it.
Have a nice day/night Gas!

I've taken the notification bar from the SDK and various screenshots (see arstechnica for example). I can resize and grey out the headset icon which I will look at doing tomorrow.
Re: incorporating this with other lockscreens, I will try and add them all to this through morphs, but it might take a while.

As I said in an earlier post i LOVE this theme =) But i got a queston. Mine doesn't looke exactly like the screenshot I'm posting n image to show what i mean, on the right side is the screen shot and on the left is what mine look like, dunno if its maybe because I'm using CM power widget in notif... bar?
Also it looks like the alarm icon got and extra pixel on the top right side or something
//_b
Looking great. For some reason the keyboard keeps force closing but it's not a problem as I was going to switch to the HTC one anyway but might be something you want to look into. On a HTC Desire with DeFrost 6.1 if it helps. Anyway, keep up with the good work, can't wait to see what it looks like once it matures (or until CM and Defrost release a 2.3 ROM )
EDIT: It appears a second Android Keyboard has been installed as 2 of them appear on my apps list, one is 168KB and the other is 304KB, the 304KB one has a version number of 2.3 so I assume that it's yours. Might see if I can find a way to uninstall the stock one.

I changed very much in manifest.xml styles.xml and some others .xml on every app, quite hard to remember. I think you get all black text because you modified the holo definition tree inside framework-> check your pm

Beta2 is up with

-fixed text on low battery

Still can't find that shutdown menu to change text color..can someone help me with it?
Hi Paul,
For the last week, I have been trying to modify Settings.apk (essentially I'm trying to do the same as your theme but for CM9 for Galaxy S2 to make it the same colors as Go Launcher).
Editing the res files in the apk itself works without problems, but as soon as I edit the the Android manifest to chose Holo.Light the application is not recognized anymore. I've tried to sign the apk using xdaAutoTool, APKManager, etc ... but can't get it to work.
I've been trying to read on this but unfortunately all tutorials I could find deal with simple res editing. Can you please provide a step by step?
Thanks

So basically when you swich to Holo Light you have to edit the manifest.xml and also /values/styles.xml don't forget it. Change values that you want to theme to Holo.Light and after that edit your png's. That's only if you want to theme the settings, for a full theme there is alot of work inside framework-res.apk
@All I saw the theme engine is back on CM9 so be sure a theme for that will come once I get used to it. As for this version next update should have semi-transparent statusbar(to mach the lockscreen) and hopefully that black text on power menu

Animated Status Bar Icons
What is the goal?
Getting custom Animated Icons in our Status Bars!
Anyone can join this Communtiy Project!
provided you want to help get this
Animated Status Bar going!
If interested: drop me a PM OR post in
the thread here, and say you'd like to help!
This 'project' is a work in progress, and will undergo a lot of changes
over the next few weeks, lots of things on the go, and quite a few
amazing people lending their spare time, to see this project through.
That being said: below is the source code, and @brandall's message,
He was extremely generous and created the alpha version of this apk.
Please consider thanking him at his Utter! thread.
brandall said:
Hey @Adizzzle
Attached is an apk that uses the inbuilt Android uploading icon.
The source code is available here. I'll stick the open source licence in it when I get a moment - of which I have very few lately.... But anyone is free to update it, use it, sell it, whatever.....
It's pretty simple code that's clearly labelled so beginner developers should be able to follow it.
I don't know how to create animated icons using XML or if there are any system restrictions to their use, so it might be a root only project for you.
Hope this base code can get others interested and up and running.
Wishing you good luck with your project.

That is an xml file that sets up the email notification icon to be animated cause it to change every 80 ms all the icons are located in the drawable folders inside the decompiled apk (download from attachments and view using notepadd++ as it will not paste correctly also need to change extension back to xml as I renamed it .txt because of attachment rules

So, from what I see, it used the parent code <animation-list> and used androidneshot="false" to basically stop the series of images setting on one image... Interesting...
Can you upload that app that uses those animated email notifications?
I wonder if that's from systemui,
framework-res, or the actual gmail app..

You may add me too the team, that was taken from a theme for cm10.1 but the actual xml file would go in apkname/res/drawables of the systemUI.apk
Theme is here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2008993
Will decompile a systemUI.apk soon and place the animated icon and see what happens

Is there another way of getting the icon to appear
without having to receive an email you think?

i think you should make the xml to repeatedly run through a set of pictures, that way is easy for themers to theme?
also make the icon appear when the refresh interval starts to check for mail?
Also i am developing "Universal Safety Flasher" whitch will go great for theming such as this!
And one more thing, the status bar icon are in /system/framework/framework-res.apk or /system/app/SystemUI.apk
i dont remember

I was hoping to have the animated icon always in the status bar, of course that being the case there will certainly have to be a way of turning it off as well.

SO here it goes,
so far I have pulled the .xml and images for a breathing Gmail Notification,
Thanks to @Neurom707 for the idea, and the theme.
They are all located in my public Dropbox folder:
http://db.tt/klg2Y2Qg
The .xml tells the notification, to scroll through 0 - 20 images,
and that causes the notification to have a "breathing effect".
Now to get this working in a ROM!
Would anyone know how to activate this .xml and these images, rather
then the default un-animated notification? Would this be located in the gmail app?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The images were located in res>drawable-xhdpi
The .xml was located in res>drawable

you could probably add it to status bar by adding the smali reference into the status_bar_expanded.xml and also editing the smali to give it an image - dont ask me how to do that as I dont edit smali but it would just be easier to just add it to epm
