[MM Theme] 928Droid "Black Glass" for ESE81 Pure Stock Rooted Droids

New "Back to Stock" Update.zip! (link below)

This is the latest version of my "Black" theme with Black Glass Backgrounds on the Notification Bar, Stock Widgets, etc.

This MetaMorph XML Theme works on 2.1 ESE81 "Pure Stock Rooted" ROMs or any ESE81 Based ROMs. See the apps/apks that are Themed in the list below.

Perfect Stock Smoothness, Speed and Stability, especially if no other themes have been applied.

This is an MM Theme that will change basically all App headers, footers, Menus to "Black Glass". Also all Menu Icons are now enchjanced and colorized (screen caps at the bottom of Post #2 below).

My theme has a unique method for working around the Notification Bar Clock color issue since Pure Stock Roms (odexed) are not currently able to change the clock color. Notice the lighter shaded clock background below.

Also my new "Droid Pulsar" Battery Status is now standard in Version 1.8.

Theming of these Stock/3rd Party apps is included in the "Black Glass" Theme:

AccountAndSyncSettings.apk
AlarmClock.apk
Browser.apk
Calculator.apk
Calendar.apk
CalendarProvider.apk
CarDock.apk (Car Home)
com.helixproject.launcher.apk - Removed in v1.9
com.helixproject.launcher2.apk Removed in v1.9
Camera.apk
Contacts.apk
DeskClock.apk "2.1 Desk Clock" - changed in v1.8 (apk must be installed in System/app, formerly named "com.android.deskclock.apk", be sure to update apk name)
DownloadProvider.apk
Email.apk
Facebook.apk
GenieWidget.apk (News and Weather)
Gmail.apk
GoogleApps.apk - added in v1.7
Launcher.apk - New 2.1 "Style" Black Glass Theme added in v1.1 (screen caps in Post #2 below)
LauncherPro.apk - Added in V1.9 - apk must be installed in System/app, as "LauncherPro.apk"
Maps.apk (make sure Market Version update of Google Maps is uninstalled first)
MediaUploader.apk
Music.apk
Mms.apk
Phone.apk
Settings.apk
Talk.apk
Vending.apk
VoiceSearchWithKeyboard.apk
YouTube.apk
framework-res.apk

As specified in the MetaMorph Theme File details, do the Framework-Res.apk last, it will either auto-reboot or you will get a screen to manually reboot. You will have to reboot your phone when you apply the last part (framework-res)..sometimes it will do it on it's own. Don't panic it will be fine. If you get a hang on the first reboot, pull the battery and boot again.

Also you will loose Home screen Shortcuts for some of the Native apps/Widgets after theming, just add them back again

Please do a search in this Forum if you are unfamiliar with MetaMorph theming.

Don't FORGET to do a full Nandroid backup before applying these Themes!! You have been warned, and I take no responsibilty for any negative impact to your Droid!!

sorry, would've left the notification screen default if i had known you were going to post 'em like that! b/c it looks really slick, too, with the SG added in

No problem, if you get bored you can switch it back and do another screen cap for me (hint, hint).

BTW, can you check the Power Widget? Someone said it wasn't glassed.

Also did you do the new update that fixes the Music Widget?

Thanks!

 

[jntdroid]

which .apk would cover the power widget? settings?

 

[jntdroid]

ok - here is the default dropdown, the music widget updated, and i slapped the power widget on my wife's window (hence fb and the pink icons! :icon_eek - it looks glassed to me... i think anyway

edited: added keyboard screenshot so you could have everything you had with the original theme

 

[928Droid]

Yes, I just checked and it the Power Widget it glassed..but you have to apply settings sub-theme.

BUT, I found a few other cool places to apply glass... new update coming in an hour or so.

 

[jntdroid]

ok cool... well if you need more screenshots, just let me know as you add them

Hey thanks for the theme it looks great

Only problem I have is it seems to have broken the Market. When I try to update an app I get a vending error and FC.

Glad you like it...wait until you see the the latest version "Black Glass" OP has been updated..screen caps coming.

The Market issue seems to be common lately, for fix check this post.... How do I edit Android Market data/app APK???

 

[blackngray70]

I think I fixed it I did a data/factory reset and wiped the cache partition and was able to install and update apps.

 

[blackngray70]

Has the link in the OP already been updated for the latest version?

 

[jntdroid]

it looks like it - different file name than earlier today

Alrighty thanks.

 

[jntdroid]

getting some screenshots myself at the moment - whatever you changed did weird things to my widgets... some of them had to be reloaded, no big deal obviously, but a couple were actually moved to a different window altogether
