[MM Theme] 928Droid "Android Glass" for ESE81 Pure Stock Rooted Droids!
This is the latest version of my "Black Glass" theme with all the Stock Orange/Yellow Button Presses, testfield surrounds and Highlights etc. changed to "Android Green".
"Droid Does" accents are also changed to the Green Android Icon.
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. My Themes only update image files so they will not effect custom coded versions of apps.
Perfect Stock Smoothness, Speed and Stability, especially if no other themes have been applied.
This is an XML MM Theme that will change basically all App headers, footers, Menus. Also all Menu Icons are darkened to match.
My theme has a unique method for working around the Notification Bar Clock color issue since Pure Stock Roms are not currently able to change the clock color. It is not perfect in Landscape mode, but am working on a fix.
UPDATE: Fix for Clock Background is to use my new Droid Pulsar Battery Status MM theme with Glass Black backgrounds. Download Link: MM Theme- Droid Pulsar Battery Status with "Black Glass"
Framework-Res theming shows up in most all Market and 3rd Party apps.
Direct themes of the following Native apps are included, it is recommended to apply all of them for a uniform look.
AccountAndSyncSettings.apk
AlarmClock.apk
com.android.deskclock.apk "2.1 Desk Clock" (apk must be installed in System/app)
Browser.apk
Calculator.apk
CarDock.apk (Car Home)
com.helixproject.launcher.apk (apk must be installed in System/app)
com.helixproject.launcher2.apk (apk must be installed in System/app)
Camera.apk
Contacts.apk - added in v1.2
DownloadProvider.apk - added in v1.1
Email.apk
GenieWidget,apk (News and Weather app) - added in v1.2
Gmail.apk
GoogleApps.apk - added in v1.3
Launcher.apk - New "2.1 Style" Black Theme
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 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. Never seen it cause any more issues than that.
Since so many apps are themed, the system will get faster as you use each of the newly themed apps after the first time. Also you will loose Home screen Shortcuts for some of the Native apps/Widgets after theming, just add them back again.
IF you have previously installed some other themes I would HIGHLY recommend at least pushing a stock 2.1 Framework-res.apk FIRST before installing my theme. A lot of themes I have seen have large thumbnail files in them which can effect overall performance.
Please do a search in this Forum if you are unfamiliar with MetaMorph theming.
