Hey, joenathane. Been a long time. I was one of your avid followers on this thread of yours before I has my Nook Color pawned. xD I just got it back and I'm trying to make the theme work and for some reason I'm having trouble with it. Last time I checked, there was a flashable zip that I also need to flash via recovery but now I only see an APK on the OP. Does the APK has all it needs to function correctly? I'm getting FCs whenever I try applying it via Theme Chooser.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
What's good dude? Been a long time.

I've haven't had a nook for for the better part of a year now and my HP Touchpad is running CM9.

Try the compatibility version, it's not as fully featured but the regular version redirects some XMLs from the systemui.apk, those XMLs are very build specific, that is why you are getting those FCs.

(The flashable zip you remember used to replace those XMLs but I figured out how to make the theme chooser do that).
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] les02jen17:
@joenathane: compatibility mode solved it. Though I kinda miss the feature wherein we can have the back button as the first soft button on the left then home, then menu, then quick notifications... I remember we used to do that with flashable zips after applying the theme. I guess you can't bring that back, since you don't have Thanks anyways man. Anyone still watching joe's thread that still have those files?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
The files would have to be updated to match the newer build you are using, that's why you get force closes with the standard version.

I could try to make a newer build of the theme when I have some free time in the up coming days, but it may be near to impossible since I have no way to test. Don't expect anything but I'll look into it.

Also, if anyone wants to take over where I left off, feel free to use my work, I have zero issues with that.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tuffasagong:
Hey, this is a really nice theme, thanks alot. I started trying CM10 betas for the Nook Color but I was having too many issues, so went back to CM 7.2 and at least it looks a bit like CM10 till they get it more stable. Thanks!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
I'm going to recompile this theme for the CM 7.2 stable, for all those staying with Gingerbread, expect the build in within the next couple of days.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
I don't have a Nook to test with, I need someone to test this www.thesupercomputerguy.com/android/icecreamsandwichbeta4.apk <- not sure if it works, install it at your own risk. It may cause force closes, so only test this if you are comfortable with dealing with such issues.

If you have an older version installed you'll need to first uninstall it.

If you install it and have issues, take screenshots if you can, and be as descriptive as possible when reporting the problem.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] RoboticBuddy:
Thanks! Just a quick question before install, will this work for te MiRaGe KANG Rom, or will it FC te status bar?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
The only way to know is to try, but I compiled it against CM 7.2 Stable.

If it force closes you should be able to apply a different theme, or uninstall the theme and reboot to get things back to normal.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] RoboticBuddy:
Nope, just tried it out, still FC's the Status Bar. I will install CM7.2 soon so I can take screenshots!

Thanks for your work! :D
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] tuffasagong:
Thanks!

I know this thread is old but just wanted to say thanks for your work while you had your nook. Still a great theme.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
Thanks for the appreciation. ?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
I will try :)

That is Market version 3.2.0 that was supposedly pulled from ICS. I'll attach it here.

Not gonna happen sir, this is an Ice Cream Sandwich based theme and this is what the clock looks like on the tablet version of ICS.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] EverythingNook:
Did i do something wrong when installing the 3.2 market? It doesnt show videos and a lot of apps are still incompatible. I followed this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HEJB2RAMuI
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
The important things are, DPI 160 or 240 and clear the markets cache from the manage applications area, that should be all you need.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] EverythingNook:
Thats a shame i dont like my nook at 160 dpi, but ill try it thank you. What dpi do you have it set to?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
Tempted to day over 9000 but I wont:D, I have it set to 160.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] EverythingNook:
Haha now I'm tempted! Thank you 160 works fine

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
Recreated all the battery icons to have higher fidelity, to be the same size as the wifi icons and to have a more incremental changes between percentages.

Now off to bed!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] les02jen17:
Can't install the Market. I tried clearing the data + cache, uninstall updates under Settings > Applications> Manage Applications. Also tried uninstalling it first in Astro, and it wont let me. When I install it using Astro, it says not installed. Help!

EDIT:

Also, I dunno why, but when I installed the ICS theme the wifi remained black in white (the theme I had before was your transformerbread theme). Tried reboot but it didnt go away. XD
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] EverythingNook:
You cant just get the apk and install it, follow the instructions on the video i posted a few post up.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jgaf:
I was able to install the new market using the video EverythingNook linked, but it doesn't look anything like joe's market. It seem just like 3.1.5 although the size of the icons is different. And yes I checked the version and it says 3.2.0
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] les02jen17:
I can't do it that way since my wifi modem is not working atm. (o_O")
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jac0708:
Truly Truly amazing. Keep it up, cannot wait to get my hands on Alpha 2
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] zires:
That's thumb keyboard from the market.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
Alpha 2.1 coming soon, I'm going to take another crack at the notification pull down, I'm not happy with it as it is currently.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Lolento:
Can you go back to using the numerical battery and clock from alpha 1? The new one is too big and too bright so it is distracting from the status bar
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
Not completely satisfied but I think this a step in the right direction.

I'll also release a version with a smaller clock for those who don't want to time travel with me.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] lowpeezy:
I like the big clock, and everything looks so much crisper now
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] zondajag:
I prefer the smaller text. It was a lot more understated. Also I would like to use the font I went to the trouble of applying :P
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
Alpha 2.1
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] EverythingNook:
Well thanks for my new favorite theme! And i like the big blue clock and battery it looks a lot like honeycomb :D
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] bass0324:
If you look in the market, there is a nice version of ifs for cm7 theme Chooser. I have it on my Inc 2 now, maybe you can use it for reference but I found the link in the inc2 theme forum. Just thought that might help you out a little

Edit: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1310925 this is where I got it from
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jac0708:
Actually it looks a lot like IceCreamSandwhich ;)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Revernd:
Love this! Looks amazing on my HP Touchpad. I would love to see the font for the clock match ICS a bit more but other then that, this is great! Thank you so much.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ponyboy82:
very very nice! installing this is on my to-do list!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] enomai:
Looking good. Really digging this so far.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ponyboy82:
I finally installed this but the"clear" button on the notifications pull-down is really dark. Is there away to change that?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] boxcar8028:
hey, thanks a lot for the awesome themes been loving ics. just install 2.0 and my screen looks kind of odd. it didn't look like this in alpha 1. attached is a screen shot, you can see the odd white boxes. i have try rebooting, changing my wallpaper and re-downloading but nothing seems to help. am i missing something? is there anything i can do to fix this. i really want to use this theme as my main daily driver....
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] john21511:
Nice thank you
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] GadgetFreak:
What clock widget is that?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
What I am currently working on

on press

and again
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
That's really odd, I wonder if anyone else is experiencing this issue... Are you running off SD or internal?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] boxcar8028:
i have cm7 installed internally, not on sd. the odd boxes are on all of the alpha two's. including the theme with the smaller clock. perhaps it's incompatible with some app that im running… just not sure
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
What launcher are you using?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] john21511:
I can't seem to get it working. I installed the apk but cant find the theme. I'm using cm7.1 alpha 2 for touchpad with adw launcher. How do I get it running?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
you'll find it in the Theme Chooser in your app drawer.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] john21511:
Thank you so much it worked.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] boxcar8028:
OMG!!! :eek::eek::eek: you're going to think im nuts. after reading your reply i was going to try to switch from launcher pro back to the stock launcher. so i went to the theme manager to see which version ics theme i have installed. I loaded the ics 2.1 and all of suddenly, BAM, it was working…. the odd boxes are gone. not sure what happen between last night and now but all i care about is that its working haha and i got my theme back.:D:D

man, thanks so much for your hard work. this theme kills:)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ponyboy82:
very nice. i was thinking to myself the buttons could use some sprucing up but i wasn't sure how -- that pretty much nails it! great work
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Nburnes:
Fantastic theme as usual man. Seriously looks great on my Nook and Touchpad.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] lonelily:
It's the first theme I've used on my Touchpad. It feels like a new device. Thank you! How do you active the weather and clock?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] john21511:
I got it to work thank you.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
Glad it's working for you!

Good to hear :)

I added some links and details on my setup in the OP. I'm using Beautiful widgets, the super tablet widget for the clock and the weather.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] mooja:
im loving the whole theme the one thing i wish would change though is the clock and battery and jazz. is there any way to get them white like everything else instead of the blue?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
Thing is I am making this theme in an attempt to mimic Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, and the clock and battery and wifi icons are all blue in Ice Cream Sandwich.

The other thing is, if I were to make a white version, I'd probably have to end up making a big clock and little clock version of that too, which would double my work load and version control. At that point it would stop being a fun hobby for me and would turn into a chore, which incidentally is also the reason I don't ask for or accept donations.

In about two months we should all be running Ice Cream Sandwich and traveling in flying cars. :D
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joeb690:
Anyone have any ideas as to why it states when I apply this or any term for that matter it states " Sorry this theme is missing assets for your device sreen size." Just wondering as I have tried various screen densities and it always states this. Love the theme, thanks for you efforts.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
That is due to the way I made the theme, given that Gingerbread wasn't created to properly accommodate the size of our screens, I have found that some elements look better if they are HDPI and not MDPI(our native DPI). Don't worry about that warning, its meaningless in our context.

I also want to note that I am by no means an expert themer, I am figuring this all out as I go, and doing what appears to work best.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ponyboy82:
Quoted for the future. Please theme my flying car in blue. ;)

ps. great work btw. My nook has never been so pretty.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] jpmi23:
This may seem like a silly question to some, but no b.s. ... I'm colorblind. (I can see colors, just not accurately. I can't go into it. It'll take forever to fully explain it.)

Could some one give me the color code they're using for their notification power widget indicator color? I'm trying to match it as good as I can... but it's a fruitless effort.

Thanks in advance.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] boxcar8028:
hey, joe, i like this theme sooo much that i even have it install on my htc aria. this theme looks so awesome on a phone the dial pad is crazy, so cool:D:D:D

the only thing i have notice is that the battery icon and the percentage combo is missing. in your other themes you can have the small battery and the percentage together. now its only one or the other. is it possible to get the combo back?

i know this is a fun hobby for you but dude, you should put this theme on the market. i would totally pay for this theme:);)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ianPhillips1:
Joe,there's a new ics Google search bar that is a great fit with this theme,just a white outline around the box and a white icon.

I just noticed the "clear" button in the notifications and some otherbuttons likethat aredark gray with black text instead of white so its really hard to read. Isthere a way to changethat?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
I addressed that in my release notes in the OP.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] mytempxx:
Best theme maker
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
This is a color i've used ff00ddff, it seems to look good but isn't the exact blue that i am using in the theme, because he indicator mixes the color with a preexisting file, I may be able to resolve this in a future release.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] :
Awesome work as usual. One thing I've never gotten to work has been your keyboard themes? I'm using thumb keyboard but not sure how to have your theme showup in the theme options. Ideas?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
:)

If you choose the Gingerbread theme in the Thumb Keyboard options, you'll have what I themed. For Transformerbread choose the Black theme in the Thumb keyboard options.

I really should add that info to the OP.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] les02jen17:
hey Joe, can you tell me what font was used in the original ICS's status bar clock?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
Here are all the fonts from ICS http://api2.ge.tt/0/9NbFAJ9/0/blob/download

I believe it's the AndroidClock font.

softkeys

Looks like this theme is coming along great- moving toward the calibre of the hdpi ics theme on the market. I like the softkeys in this version for the nook, but one small request: a version without the dividing lines between keys. Would more closely mimic the softkeys on the nexus. Thanks for your work!
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] boxcar8028:
hey joenathane, i'm currently using your new awesome ICS theme, i really like the new look but was just wondering if the battery icon and the battery percentage can be added together just like your other themes or will this take away from the look of ICS. if not cool then can the percentage be move over to the right so the spacing would be even and center.

attached are screenshots of the status bars from the honeyBbread and ICS themes. you can see the battery icon and the percentage together with honeybread. and the spacing with ICS.

anyway, thanks man for the awesome themes:D:D:D
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Lolento:
+1

Love to see this as well.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
I'll look into that, also the ICS softkeys are semi transparent, which gives them a grayish look, I'm going to look into implementing that too.

I'll make sure that works in the next release.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] les02jen17:
Is there any way to have different fonts for the status bar clock and the whole system's font? Like using the original ICS font on the status bar clock and roboto as the main font?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] zZarZiLLoSs:
Ohh very good thankssssssss
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
There doesn't seem to be, other than sans or monospace, setting a custom font can't be done through XMLs.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] BoomKaput:
Looking great! ETA on new release? BTW whats that note widget called?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] joenathane:
The 3.0 release it going to be pretty big, so its going to take a while, in the mean time i'll probably release an Alpha 2.3 with the new softkeys and some other minor fixes.

That is the Color Note widget, very useful...

240DPI is HDPI, this theme is only supported for MDPI. You could try to set your DPI at 160 and apply the theme and then switch your DPI back to what you like and see if that works.

np :)

in 3.0 the clear button will have white text
