[THEME] Better Gingerbread (Oxygen 2.1.3|Redux 1.2)

Here are the tweaks I'm currently running on my Oxygen 2.1.1 ROM by AdamG. I've began a port of this to ihlades' Redux 1.2 ROM. These are purely visual modifications, but one's which improve the cohesiveness of the refresh Google did to the UI.
I have put together 4 flavours, one with a minimal notification layout based on Rori's work, with my own touches, and one with the traditional layout, these are also available with JazzK's PureOxygen battery mod.
What you get
Minimal notification layout (optional)
Smooth sync animations
Smooth charge and discharge
Battery percentage option (GB battery with number in middle)
Gingerbread style notification icons
Transparent notification shade background
Green notification overflow underlay
Green progress bars
Rectangular pop-up borders
Smooth spinners
Transparency to spinners (no more white-to-grey gradient)
Custom lock-screen background (my previous implementation - change \system\framework\framework-res.apk\drawable-hdpi\lockscreen_bg.png before flashing, or with Ninjamorph)
Screenshots
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Instructions
**NB - I have not tested these with the Oxygen HBOOT, I have been using CM HBOOT**
Download from Blog
Copy to SD Card
Flash in recovery, or ROM Manager
If you change the lockscreen background before flashing, be sure to disable signature verification.
Restart phone
Enable "Status bar power widget" in Oxygen Settings (without this the minimal layout looks silly)
Choose desired battery in Oxygen Settings
If you have any issues or would like a modification done, feel free to post below. I can't guarantee anything though.

Thank you. These tweaks are awesome.

Thanks a lot Gas!
Already posted on your blog and twitter. But mentioned, that you changed battery font. IMO this one looked better http://themedroid.com/2010/12/smooth-gingerbread/. It was more readable.

AWESOME!!!

Yeah I might have to include some morphs to change the battery. I have a horizontal gingerbread version (currently unreleased), but I think JazzK's is probably the most readable.
I actually find this font more readable than the previous. Not sure why.

hey gas, long time ago^^
do you have some screenshots to see the difference between standard and minimal theme?
would be nice
cheers pa

Oh man, i love you...i've been waiting for this, many thanks

Can I flash it with CWM recovery 2.5.x?

The difference between the two is in the screenshots, the first is minimal, the second is standard. With minimal there is no carrier id and the ' clear' button is in line with the notification title.
Hope they work for you!

Ah now i see it lol
Thx

Great work!!

Is there anyway to change the battery meter font to the ones you previously made? They were more readable. Thanks

if you do this, I'm sending a great donation

I like the cyan color of Roris work very much. Would like to see this on Oxygen

Here is a green set of icons for Settings.apk
View attachment settings_drawable-hdpi.zip - png files.
View attachment settings_green.zip - flashable zip. (disable sig verification)

Gah. Guess I have to get off the DevNull-Test ROM and back on Oxygen.
Great work like always, Gas. Appreciate it!

Problems!
Hello.
First off, greaaat theme!
However, I have a couple of minor problems with this.
1) The name of the cellular network currently connected doesn't appear for me at all. It is not like the picture shown.
2) The clear button - it is not aligned to where your screenshot shows. My one is lower and unaligned with the row.
However I do have to say that I have changed the default fonts to the Ubuntu fonts. Would that be the reason? Given that the size of the clear button matches exactly with the screenshot, just the position doesn't!
Thanks again!

Same problem with clear button. Default font is changed

I haven't tried it with different fonts, that does make sense though. I'll try and look into it. This mod was pushing my limits of xml editing so not sure how it will go.
If you are using the minimal mod the carrier is not shown at all. I figured I didn't really need it as it is present on the lockscreen anyway. If you need to see the carrier ID then the traditional layout is for you

In Huawei honor 8 all correct. A little bug. When you add a new note, the tick appears in blue. The rest, perfect. Although I am addicted to the theme of Xda. Thank you for your effort and work. Greetings.

Nice! But...
Red background on that options and other windows look... bad. Its just my opinion, but it just look really bad.
I think you should stick to the same way as in blue version, where only addons and buttons are red, not backgrounds :/

It's a kind of compromise - on this red bg in settings you can now see some black fonts (for example disabled apps), which i am not able to change to other color. Maybe in next version i will change to full black, if you, people, would prefer

Just tried it; my favourite colour is red and the second one is black, so to me is perfect it's only a lil' bit hard to read a red font under strong sunlight, but it's a common point like every other red font. For the rest, i love this theme! Thank you

Hi,
I only want to change the colour o/t notification shade. But I couldn't find which icon-set or xml-file I need to change. Can anyone help me out with this?
For what it's worth I want to do this on an Emui 4.1 theme. TIA

Hi,
are you able to make such a theme for Emui 9/9.1 ?

Nice theme, the status bar battery icon is weird unless the percentage is shown inside.

Sorry, my powers have the limits Some blue elements exist because i don't know how to change it. Some elements, like app permissions, are not fully themed, because they're separate apps that i am not able to theme.

No, this screws up apps with their own notification system (like WhatsApp) or requires and extremely ugly shadow....

The contacts app, the text on tab which is active is white, which is great. However, on the other tabs it looks like the font color is black, which makes it look like a blank tab. This can be found on all apps with tabs like in the Phone app. Please fix this as it is very important.
Otherwise it looks great!

It's great but with some bugs..if u fix that's best black theme ever!!

Great job, thanks! Now all the system and apps have the same Google font as we can see in Photos, Google Assistant, Messages... It´s great!
Only a disclamer: the nav bar buttons are a little big. And the notification icon in the notification shad could be in colour instead of black to help to
distinguish between others.
But, dude, congratulations!

Keep getting theme engine crashes.. Reinstalled rebooted, still the same.

Actually, totally normal thing so no worries about it.

Seems like Swift made this moot?

Nice talent op! Really cool stuff and appreciate the hard work! Wish I could have the stock Navtigation bar without the pixel stuff though

Love it.. Great job. I did find this. Anyway you can fix it?

Can you make an apk just for the black nav bar?
