The header and nav_panel buttons of the messaging app are themed but text colors and backgrounds are not inverted. If you want a dark themed messaging app I strongly recommend Handscent, is has a dark theme available in the market that is pretty sweet. It changes the entire app including inverted text/background and the pop-ups. Plus its much faster than the stock app and you can customize the in-message background and message bubbles any way you like. So in my opinion Handscent is far superior.

The first link contains only the SystemUI.apk which has the inverted quicksettings mod, status bar transparency and a few statusbar icon changes.

The second link contains the full theme including framework image mods and the themed apps.

I am working on an update for this theme in the next few days that will include optimized apks, transparent Rosie app drawer (Thanks for the tutorial 00McD00) themed gingerbread keyboard and to iron out a few bugs that I found. I will also include as an option a few dark themed market app widgets like google music, pandora, and the weather channel app.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
Ok, how about vibrate and silent added to the quick settings tab?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Just flashed this and finished setting things up; also using Link2SD, so I have an ext3 partition on the sd card (not sure whether that matters for what my issue is).

Actually really like stepping back from my former ROM's Sense 2.1/3.0 mix to something based upon the OTA and a little "simpler" and therefore easier on the Incredible. Phone far snappier and responsive now.

However, I cannot seem to mount \emmc to the PC. I *can* get music from emmc (and sd card) via Poweramp, so it's not like the mount is failing.

I lost the mount on my prior ROM after flashing a new kernel, but I did a full wipe and followed the flashing instructions in the OP to the letter, so there shouldn't be any detritus from my old ROM.

Suggestions anyone?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ohredwood:
Seems like I saw you had some conflicts with that on the previous rom you was utilizing. Any chance it's your pc's operating system, conflicts, etc? Have you tried to mounting it to a different pc or different OS?

If I understand you correctly that is, but I had similiar problem about six months ago, and that was while I was on Magnolia, I was trying to transfer things back and forth to my sd card, and my pc would sense a card but not load or see any contents in it. I fought it for a week and finally reformatted my pc and with windows 7 and soon as I plug card in it comes up immediately.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] zoomy942:
Since you were looking for ideas...

How about a Sense 1.0/2.1 mix? Sense 3.0 and 3.5 are really heavy in my most humble opinion. :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Security

Don't want my request to get lost below the posts requesting different colors :)

When logging into an Enterprise secured WiFi (802.1x) McSense requires that you enter the password for credentialed storage. This is a huge pain in the butt because you are not prompted for it, and so your phone tries to log in, gets rejected, and tries again, etc., until your battery is dead. You enter that password once per bootup and it sticks, but on phone restart you have to do it again.

This is an android thing, not a wifi thing. The phone simply won't put out the credentials to attach to the wifi until you enter that password.

Magnolia did NOT require this, and it would be great to avoid having to enter the mandatory password for credentialed storage. I don't know if this is something you can implement, but it would be wonderful.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
I will ask Sk806 about this, since it is something that I know nothing about. Will let you know.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
The PIN unlock screen (on the "dark theme") suffers from black-on-black numbers. (Devildog had issues like this when he themed Magnolia; perhaps he can help out there).

Otherwise, quite nicely done.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
Still the most stable rom out there.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
I think something is wrong with my phone :( it's like in certain apps, the bottom portion of my touch screen stops working. It's super weird. Like I can touch the dock buttons fine, but I can't do something like swipe the notification pulldown back up. Or on my favorite keyboard it doesn't register when I press the spacebar or anything on that row. It is so weird and it happens on different roms I try.

Vigor/Prime needs to come out soon lol DInc is starting to fee like a dinosaur.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
Don't give up now. Talk nice to it, show it some love, it'll come back around.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Nope; not the PC; can't mount drive F on any PC. Utterly bizarre. SD mounts fine.

Oh well, it's October, and my contract's up in December. The Samsung Nexus Prime is looking mighty sweet today. Meanwhile this ROM runs very nicely and speedily now that I've set it up for Links2SD and running the Gingertiny 10/5 kernel with smartass v2.

UPDATE: Experimented a little more. Pulled the card and plugged the Incredible into the PC without an SD card; the PC sees a "CD drive E:" AND both F (emmc) and G (sd card) ANYWAY, same as if the card were there, and still won't mount \emmc. Then used a DIFFERENT card (without an ext3 partition) and it did the same thing. Wondering whether that's in cache or dalvik and the Windows USB driver reads it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] sprintrjm:
re

Loving this rom..

1 problem for me.

My battery drains about 25% faster on this rom than many of the others that i have used.

i have 2 batterys, stock and a sedio extended battery.

I have wiped battery stats, and also have powered down the phone completely and charged the battery and then did the wipe stats.

Same quick battery drain on both batteries.

any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Definitely do a proper battery stat wipe. It helped me. What you did, however is not the proper battery stat wipe technique.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
Would you care to share the "proper" technique for those who don't know?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
sure ... Full charge including bump charge. Wipe stats. Let run down till out turns off. Do not charge until it runs down (so do not attach to USB).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] smtom:
Hmm, my 2150 extended battery life has been really, really good with this ROM and the 9/29 kernel.

About equal to FroYo AOSP ROM battery life.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
One more thing

... one more thing re battery life on v2.4. If you followed the OP and did a full wipe before installing, then there is one more setting you need to fix.

As we all know, the proper way to charge the Incredible is with power off. It gets a real full charge. However, if you leave FASTBOOT checked (under Applications), then your phone will NOT power off when you power off, it will simply hibernate. Charging in this mode, is like charging with the power on, and you will see the standard 10% battery drop in the first 10 minutes.

SO ... in addition to the resetting of the battery stats, and always charging with the power off, make sure that FASTBOOT is unchecked.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] chadledford:
Voice search works once then i have to reinstall for it to work one more time.....

Great rom tho
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
With tinys newest, im getting insane battery life, off charger all day, still at 87 with minimal use. Ocd to the max, smartass v2 is badass!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Quantumrabbit:
I might give this a shot in 2.5.

I really like the look of that launcher.

I'm afraid I'll miss my lockring.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] VZYGuy:
What fixed this for me:

. Boot to recovery

. Advanced->fix permissions

. Reboot

Is there any easy way to remove the clock from the status bar, preferably while keeping the rest of the status bar theme intact?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Um, I myself don't know how to do it and I can't really find a good "how-to" after a little searching. But if someone could find me even a rough guide on how to do it, I could.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
This my be the best rom ever for the dinc for speed, stability, and batt life when you use tinys newest kernel. Im stunned how long my batt lasts.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Wow best ever, that's a pretty tall order lol I'd be happy if I could even come close to that. But I am glad that you are enjoying it. Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
Clean

Stable

Sleek

Fast

De-bloated

... Appears to be at least one of the best to me.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Is there someone (or multiple) out there who doesn't want the status bar clock and is willing to test this mod out for me? I make no promises on this because I used a Froyo tutorial, but I did find the matching line of code so I am optimistic lol. You will definitely want to do a backup with this because it involves the SystemUI and if I borked it some how then you will need to restore.

Greatly appreciate anyone who is willing to test this for me. Flash via recovery and wipe dalvik first.

Edit: for anyone finding this sometime in the future, don't use. No good.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BlankDEP:
I'll give it a try once I get a chance since I'm the one that asked for it. I should have an answer within an hour.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Awesome, I'm anxious to hear how it goes. And I apologize in advance if I f**ked something up or that tutorial is no longer relevant lol.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BlankDEP:
I tried it, got a force close on the status bar when I unlocked the phone and the clock is still there. After the initial force close everything seems to be working, including the clock.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
Same here. Bummer.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Hmm, the tutorial must not work for 2.3 then. Well thanks for testing and I hope I didn't cause you too much heartache lol. I will continue searching.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] BlankDEP:
No problem at all. I've been running CM7 for about a week, and I have to say I do like it, but I always find myself missing some of the Sense things, mainly camera, gallery, dialer, etc.

This ROM is absolutely the best Sense ROM that I have run, so now that I've decided to stick with it, I'm just looking to customize it a bit.

Don't waste too much time looking for ways to remove the clock, I've lived with it there before and I can certainly continue to do so. I do appreciate the effort though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
McD ... Any chance of you implementing smartass v2? Tiny seems to be very happy with it.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Well glad to hear that, always makes me happy when a newcomer enjoys the rom. Hope it stays that way :)

Um probably not unless he updates the modules themselves. I prefer to keep the stock kernel in the rom because I believe it is the most stable and I like to let people make the decision if they want to flash a different one or not. But if he updates the individual kernels then for sure.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Ok here is attempt #2 on removing the statusbar clock lol. I am much more optimistic about this one because the fix was given to me by silverxbv2 who is knowledgeable in this area. Flashable zip attached, wipe dalvik first. Again, because this is a test please please do a backup first before trying this. And please report back with results. Thanks and enjoy!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
Success! Appears to have worked just fine.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Awesome! Huge thanks to silverxbv2 for pointing this out to me. I will add this to the mods section if anyone else wants some extra status bar real-estate.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
It did, however, break the transparent dropdown from the dark theme in the op. Just thought I would let you know. Haven't noticed any other issues though.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Oh yeah didn't think about that, they both involve the SystemUI. I can make a mod for that quick if there is interest.

Sent from my Incredible Droid
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
I'm interested. :-)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] donnyp1:
This rom faster than aosp, better batt life with tinys newest. Just a rock solid build.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Ok, full version of the theme or just the inverted pulldown?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
Full version is fine. I'll just do a flash over with it. Thanks.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Ok you're actually going to have to get skibum7686 to do this. I can't recompile the apk because of the changes he made, so he will have to rebuild the SystemUI from stock. I can let me know the easy edit, if he is interested.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
Good enough, thanks for trying. Not a big deal either way.

Well I have found that if you sign out and then sign back in with friendstream your pictures are more likely to sync. It's finicky on every rom. But I also have problems with them showing up in the mms.apk sometimes, idk why.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] ifitwasnt4u:
Very nice rom! Simple, fast, love the bottom app/phone bar!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
Wow, pretty quiet over here. Must mean everything is working well. Still my favorite rom out right now. Working very smooth so far with tiny's 1005 and 1008 kernels. 1005 seems to be better on battery life though, in case you were wondering.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
I hope that's what it means lol I'm sure not having any problems with it. Glad the kernels are working smooth.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] Muhman007:
I am enjoying McSense also. Looking forward to McTwist but happy with Sense 1.0 stability. This has even replaced IncROM as my daily driver. I can't believe I said that but it's that good.

Kudos!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
I have recently come from Nils' Business GingerSense 2.1/3.0 mix, which, while quite nice with its advanced Sense features still presented challenges due to the large memory demands.

This ROM runs very quickly & smoothly, does not tax the phone, and had just the right touch of features to make it an excellent Sense ROM.

And it works perfectly with the Gingertiny kernel, overclocked and running smartass v.2 governor.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Div033:
What does it mean when sense (Rosie) has to reload? Out of memory and it was killed? Any way I could prevent this from happening?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Hmm, that's odd. Does this happen when you are doing something specific? I have been running this rom for weeks and have yet to experience this.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Div033:
Nothing notable, just a bunch of hopping around between apps. I'm thinking it has to do with the amount of memory I have available, I should probably install that Memory Optimizer app.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KlugN:
Will any of Jermaine151's mods (Warm theme or black dialer specifically) work with this ROM?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] dajmacd:
McD,

Love the ROM. This is the first Sense ROM that has made it longer than a day before I'd switch back to CM7. Been running for a week and the only reason I'm even thinking of flashing back is to get a nandroid of the 7.1 stable release. Well done!

daj
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Hmm that might be it, I have roughly 50 user apps installed though and I have never gotten that. But that could very well be the problem.

Um black dialer should work just fine, but the warm theme will remove my rosie mods such as the swapped apps/phone and other things. It wont break anything, I'm just saying you can either have the warm theme rosie or the mcsense rosie, they wont work together lol.

Well thank you very much, that is great. I always love hearing success stories of my roms lol hope you keep enjoying it!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Vigor

McD ... that Vigor sounds great, doesn't it? I mean, it sounds, to you, like a must have phone, right?!?!

I only ask because I would love to see you dev ROMs on my next phone :)

p.s. (you are getting sleepy ... very sleepy ... you MUST get a Vigor ... <snap>)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Sounds good to me, except that the name appears to be Rezound, and, after having a phone called the "Incredible," Rezound sounds, sorta, well, stupid. I liked Vigor better (although it did sound like some sort of male enhancement product).
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
:)

They could call it the IandroidPHONE for all I care, so long as McD develops for it :)

... but I am desperate for it to come out; and the lack of SD Card on the Nexus makes it an easy decision.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KlugN:
Whoa whoa whoa... Wait a minute... They're not going to be using a microsd for the nexus prime? I was planning on getting the Vigor/Rezound/whatever anyway, but I hadn't heard this about the new Samsung....
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Yup

Google it! It comes with 32GB non-removable. I guess they wanted to be like the i*hone. Next perhaps a non-removable battery?

The ability to remove the SD card has come in VERY handy for me in flashing PM31whatevers when the phone was being wonky. You need it on the card, then you need it off the card, and if you can't get into your phone or recovery to remove it, then you have yourself a problem. Anyway, I want removable. I would have liked the NFC (which the Samung will have but the vigor wont), but the sd card is the break for me. As for ICS, we got Froyo and Gingerbread, so I have no doubt the Vigor will get ICS.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KlugN:
Yeah I googled it immediately after reading your post. Definitely don't want that phone without the microsd!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Woah what just happened? I was reading XDA and then I just woke up having the strongest urge to get HTC's new phone!...lol but I appreciate your reason for wanting me to have one. My contract is up the first week of Feb so I have some time to decide. Honestly the only thing that will probably keep me from getting the Nexus would be if it is too big or non-removable battery. Stock android with ICS just sounds like a dream to me. But the Droid RAZR or the Rezound could definitely change my mind (even the LG Revolution 2 looks pretty amazing). We will have to see, it mostly hinges on the screen and bootloader status. /novel

Yeah non-removable battery would be a huge deal breaker. WAY too many times I've had to do a battery pull for one reason or another (who am I kidding, it's always bootloops haha).

Ok guys I am posting this to all of my users because I think it is a big deal and you should all be informed. If you are the primary on your account, take action. If you aren't...tell your parents. Go HERE to learn more.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
I modded DevilDog's black dialer to work for this rom and added it to the 3rd post. All the credit for this goes to him, I just touched it up to with for us, shouldn't change anything except for the dialer. Let me know how it works/looks. Enjoy!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] trickster2369:
Just flashed and it looks great. Much better than the "dialer" I posted above. :-) Thanks to you and to devildog for letting us use his work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KlugN:
Worked perfectly for me!

Thank you!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
I downloaded (but have not yet flashed) the black dialer. I note that the zip file contains a version of com.htc.resources.apk. Since I've flashed a UOT mod (digital battery) which requires the com.htc.resources.apk, will flashing the dialer clear that mod? In other words, will I have to re-cook the digital battery mod via UOT with the com.htc.resources.apk in the dialer zip?

Thanks in advance.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Awesome, glad it worked for you guys. I didn't actually test it lol but there was no reason why it shouldn't have.

Nope you're good to go, the battery images are contained within the framework-res.apk, flashing this wont screw up your theme. I actually don't know why the kitchen requires you to upload your com.htc.resources.apk because it never modifies it. If you check the output zip, that file is never in there, no matter what mods you make.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] hgoldner:
Well, the trouble with that black dialer is that if you have a PIN code to unlock the phone, it comes up all black. (Devildog, whose mods are wonderful, encountered this issue before when we were both on Magnolia). I had to rollback to stock.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Hmm I was unaware of this, they must both pull from the same background. I wonder if anyone has come up with a fix for this. Thanks for pointing it out, I will make a note on the mod.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KlugN:
I noticed the issue, but it didn't bother me. I love the black dialer.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] KlugN:
I'm also getting a low on space notification even though when I look at free memory, I'm idling between 101-115 mb free. Any ideas?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jdmba:
Memory

Yes because I am enduring this too ... at least until the Rezound comes out. Here's what I have figured out. That mb you see is not relevant. Go into Root Explorer, and navigate to Data, and then to Data. I bet you see a heck of a lot less free space there. At 15MB free you get the first warning, at 10MB you get the next.

Facebook is probably eating up 5MB as well. Dolphin will eat more. You need to clear data in apps to get THIS partition space back up.

Of course, if anyone knows if it is safe to pull out stuff that is in Data/Data like wallpaper, simply by deleting it, would love to know that.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 00McD00:
Hmm sorry to hear this guys, but not sure what (if anything I can do about it). I think the majority of it is just app cache building up. I would suggest rebooting or turning off your phone at least once a day and then go in and clear app cache every once in a while. I know I reboot my phone every day and I have yet to experience this in over 2 weeks.

And yes deleting stuff such as wallpapers is just fine. Sorry to say, but at this point I am leaning towards the Droid RAZR ;)
