[FRF57][Release] BlackLight. A sleek black and white Android theme - 2.2, 2.1, 2.0.1

[treminaor]

The first thing you should know this that this is a port of my iPhone theme, BlackLight. (You can find it on iPod Touch Fans, ModMyI, and other iPod/iPhone forums)

Just as the title says, this is a beta. There are missing images and as of right now only framework-res, Music.apk, Phone.apk, and Launcher.apk are being released. However, I have modified the keyboard, Browser, and Settings (This one's a big problem in itself) among others. They just aren't ready for release yet. The 2.0.1 version has much more to offer because of it's compatibility with MetaMorph. (It modifies more widgets and icons as of now)

*Looking for testers running 2.0.1*
*PM me or reply to this thread to apply*

Current Verion (2.2): 0.02
Current Version (2.1): 0.03
Current Version (2.0.1): 0.01

Bugs (2.2)

*Music.apk ongoing notifications for music that is playing are black and unreadable.
*All bugs from 2.1 version are still present, except Settings.apk has now been added to the release.
*Other stuff. :P

Bugs (2.1)

* Some status bar signal and misc icons have not been changed yet.
* Other misc framework-res images have not been changed (full conversion not complete).
* Possible Black-on-Black text in the notifications drawer for on-going notifications. (Any app from Market with black text)
* Settings.apk and VoiceSearch.apk (aka the keyboard) are having FC problems. For this reason, they are not included in the theme as of yet.
* Some icons seen in the screenshots (not included in the theme) are from the desire theme. Credit goes to glObe on AllDroid for those.
* There are some images in Phone.apk left over from Smoked Glass. The only reason they are not changed is because I haven't been able to get them to . Credit goes to AdamZ for those.

Bugs (2.0.1)
*Clock may be black - Use SkaggzColor0.9.1 to fix it.

If you have any questions, suggestions, or praise, please let me know.

This theme is looking pretty sweet. Many people have started to use DarkEdge, but I'm a Bugless user, so there are issues with it at the moment. Your theme would be a nice alternative, indeed. So please, keep it up. :-)

Wow, this actually looks really nice. I'd be glad to test it out for 2.1 if you get that working.

2.1 should be working as of now (except for the aforementioned bugs on the first post). And again, please let me know if I can help you with anything.

If you would like to be a tester, please let me know via PM and we will work something out.

Some sort of incompatibility on my phone. Installed the update.zip through nandroid, but upon booting up, Helix2 kept force closing. I had to pull out the battery to get it to stop as I couldn't get to the default home setup. I'm going to try to do BBv1.0 stock and re-apply that way.

It may turn out that a data wipe is necessary to keep that from happening. Because obviously there is no direct incompatibility with Helix2 itself because I am using right now... (and in the screenshots)

Keep me posted and I'll keep thinking.

After installing BBv1.0 stock-theme, I managed to install your update.zip and I must say it looked pretty sweet. Unfortunately, there was quite a bit of sluggishness going on and I can't tell if its just on my end here. When I used the default Browser and pressed Menu, I got a FC. There was quite a bit of heat, but that may have been the kernel. I'm going to try to install the theme again on my previous setup, but do a data wipe.

Edit: Further tried to install the update.zip over my current setup, but I kept getting a boot loop, even after a data wipe. It appears the only way to do it is to do a clean install of BBv1.

Hey OP if you need help with anything let me know. Black text for the pulldown is in framework-res/res/layout/status_bar_latest_event_content.xml . Again if you have questions on things or problems don't hesitate to ask.

Plain and simple. I like it
