Really nice! Just wondering is the contact picture icon is suppose to be black if they don't have a contact icon like from gallery or FB?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Yeah the stock pic is black by default
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] castkel:
Does the fancy rotation animation make the crt off animation upside down?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SpartanVissepo:
Very nice with the update. I really loooove minimalistic themes it just makes the phones in my opinion very futuristic looking. I remember that I had on my og epic the bionix black from maddoging ,from the first day that I rooted till the day that i sold it. Thanks again for this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Yes unfortunately lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
No problem :-) glad you like it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Android 4.0 love now? :P
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Sorry guys I haven't updated like I said I will.. I will pretty soon I just been really busy. :-)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carbajal3009:
No problem :D can't rush greatness
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VECTUS:
Damn Banks... you rock dog!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jackka:
it is the weather notification app that comes loaded with the theme. i tried uninstalling it with titanium backup, but ran into force closes.

you can just go into the weather notification app setting and uncheck "show notification" and the icon in the status bar will go away.

i downloaded the white text default skin and tried it out just to see and it's actually pretty good and i now like the integrated look and feel in the status bar, so i got rid of the accuweather app instead and use it instead.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
It is a pretty noticeable battery difference when using a black theme on these SAMOLED screens.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Yes and my phone seems to charge faster with this theme too lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrisingrassia:
I had the same question a few weeks ago. It's the weather app that's built into the ROM/theme and it defaults to being on. Go into the app drawer, and it's toward the bottom. Then go into the settings and disengage it if you want.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ffkip911:
great theme, looks amazing on venum's VCS RL5---but I don't see avatars in contacts---is it just a dark picture?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Its your weather..just press it an remove the notification..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Yes, its a black square
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
updated.............
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jackka:
out of curiosity, what would be the difference between having v6.5 and v6.6 of this theme on Calk's 2.9.1 ? just not sure what the changelog is indicating :o

Also, if I am using Calk's 2.8.1 , I guess there is no reason for me to update to v6.6 ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Well it was pretty much updated to 2.9.1 base with updated apps.. No physical theme changes
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mele:
Why is it I lose recovery option when I apply this theme? I get Silent Mode, Airplane Mode, Screenshot, Reboot and Poweroff...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] il buono:
That's what happens when you flash the tsm lockscreen version of this theme. "Recovery" is within the "Reboot" option
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Thanks for updating considering you switched devices
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Wacky2bakky:
I just had flashed this theme over the calks 2.9.1 ROM. Working great other then when I go to lock my phone or even unlock it, it seems to flash real quick with an image of the screen upside down? Anyone else experienced this or know of a fix?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jesmer:
Ever Since I Installed this theme which I absolutely love, my phone has been shutting off on its own. Any body every had any similar issues?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jackka:
something with the CRT style screen off animation doesn't work well with automatic screen rotation animation, so if you have both of the mods at the same time, the screen will get inverted if your screen goes off while in landscape mode.

a simple fix would be to get rid of either of the mods since, as of right now, you can't have both working at the same time.

I've been using the regular version of the theme, which doesnt have that issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
no prob :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Wacky2bakky:
Ok, so if i just flash the regular version of this theme without the LOCKSCREEN MOD it should fix the problem correct? I won't need to remove either one of those mods? because i don't know how to remove the fancy screen rotation mod after i installed the zip a while back lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
If you want to delete rotation mod, go into theme folder then go into libs folder and delete the two files and flash
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Wacky2bakky:
Sorry to sound stupid but where exactly can i find the themes folder? lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
download 7zip, download theme open theme with 7zip, navigate to libs folder and delete the two files in there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MAX_POWERS:
I was getting flipped screen with the no locker theme. I turned off animations under display settings and that fixed it. Still have the crt. I really hated getting flipped screen when answering a call.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MAX_POWERS:
Will there be an update for calk 3.0?

Just flashed theme. It works with 3.0
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SpartanVissepo:
Can someone please share the black status bar patch for regular version. Thanks in advance
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
since i dont have this phone anymore, I wont be able to keep theme update :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ttrain721:
I'm running this on Blazer 4.1 and I'm still getting the icons from Dark Fire Blue. Anyone else having this trouble?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] texas83:
I just flashed over Blazer 4.1 - still works fine. I love this theme. Only thing, I want the original black dialer screen that used to be with the theme. Now the dialer is clear and resorts to the homescreen wallpaper. Any way to just get the old black and white dialer screen? thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Let me see if I can get a hold of Banksmi for you. I know I have a few previous versions before the transparent stuff was added but I need to make sure that the rest is the same
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ascertion:
As long as it's still el29 based, it should work. Just push contacts.apk to system/app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] texas83:
That would be really cool of you man. I don't have an old zip ~ can someone post a copy of the contacts.apk? I don't even mind the ics dialer, anything but this clear one!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] texas83:
Anyone have an old copy of the Black & White theme? I would really like to have the solid black and white dialer! Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] carnivalrejectq:
Im also looking for the black status bar for the non lock screen version , link is dead. If anyone has it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blogness:
I'm with that guy a couple of posts up. Anyone have either the phone and contacts apks from an old version or an actual old version that those can be pulled from? The transparent bg is annoying and if I knew how to fix it manually I would, but reading the posts it looks like we could just use the apks from the old version.

Scouring google for old versions only leads to a link for 6.2 on wupload and you need to have uploaded the file to download it...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] texas83:
No one ever responded with an old copy, so that option is out. But, I did find a fix for the clear background. Just use the phone.apk and contacts.apk that SSConceptz designed at the link below. You'll then have the black and white theme with the ICS dialer, which is way better than the clear imo. I used the EL26 version and its been fine, no problems after a week of use.

Here you go. Luckily I had it on my SD card still.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clipsedrag:
So sad this theme is discontinued... it was awesome..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Sorry guys. I always forget about the themes and apps section! Banksmi will be making his way back over to Sprint soon and I wouldn't be surprised if he picks this back up. If its still needed, I think I have older versions on my laptop still

It would be really nice to see this theme added to a newer from as well =]
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] carnivalrejectq:
im a little late here , but thanks, although i waas looking for the statusbar for the version without the 13 lockscreens
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blogness:
Awesome news! banksmi themes=epic.

If you have an older version where the dialer doesn't have the transparent background that would also be awesome. I really just need the apk for the dialer, not the whole theme.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingcaliyone:
this theme is NNNNNNNNNIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCEEEEEEEEEEEEE the lockscreen mod is awesome ..one of the best themes I've seen for e4gt
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingcaliyone:
i think i have it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blogness:
If you have it, can you send me a link or the dialer/phone apk? it's the last piece i need for my b&w setup!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
when i get some free time I might revive this theme and update it for ics :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
I dont have any older versions :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ddaub14:
Ics black n white can't wait. I go back to gb once in a while just cause I luv this theme
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Just getting my thoughts and resources together :-) then I'm going to hit this hard Haha :-)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wizky911:
Any way I can strip the icons from this theme?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Just go into the Apks and take out the icon pngs
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] btaylor545:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KelvCast:
Man your fast lol. Time to do my wipes and flash

---------- Post added at 10:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:40 AM ----------

Forgot to ask how did you get the launcher like in your screenshot. I see you mentioned Go Launcher but I couldn't find a theme to match it. Did you create the icons yourself? Phone...Text...Web...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
yeah the launcher is go launcher with custom icons and dock i found somewhere on here somewhere lol... I can not remember
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
thanks :) ill add a no batt percentage flash
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Is it hard to get the battery w/o percentage?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
not really, just have to replace all the battery pngs with ones with no numbers on them
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
pffft.... lol... unnamed rom has been updated.... gotta update the unnamed rom version lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Yeah it has but your theme still works with it! (Using it now)

Also IF u can make the battery without percentage (as a mod) if possible please! Again thank u for an awesome theme!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
true but i am real anal bout these kind of things lol..and i am going to make a sep, flash-on for no batt.%
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Dude thanks a lot that's why I love XDA!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
I did notice that if u lock your phone while in Gmail the top grey bar stays there while locked but it must be because unnamed was updated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Nah that is because its transparent lol, that cant be helped
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Oh OK doesn't bother me though any idea of when you might update the battery mod ... just asking.

Getting some android system force closes on calkulins latest rom
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
Yeah getting them too. Android process keeps force closing after reboot on calks 2.5 :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] funtimes:
anyway to fix the grey status bar? hard to make anything out when it goes grey
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ratm2200:
Loving the theme,great work!!! I also am getting the android system force closes, currently on unnamed rom 2.01
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :

Did you update the Caulkin RC5 version or where you just talking about the no % version?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Everything has been updated as of now :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
everything has now been updated
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Also note the battery addons must be flashed over the corresponding theme version
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] funtimes:
Hey cool man thx for the reply. Forgive my ignorance but whats the point of a transparent status bar anyway? Not like any apps overlap it. I can see having transparent notification bar but why the status bar?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
because I hate the black statusbar lol. It gives the theme a clean trasparent look and the black statusbar kind of takes away from it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] funtimes:
Now that I look at it it makes sense, cool man. Never thought of it that way since my wallpapers are usually jet black as it is, always blends together for me anyhow. Great work I'm really digging the theme. Its very impressive. Thanks again
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Banksmi09

How am I suppose to know how much battery is left? LOL I know I said no percentage but at least a line or something LoL its pitch black

Update: I can kind of tell after it goes lower ... so I think I can manage

Update 2: no its very hard to tell the amount of juice left. Specially while driving :( Please add a line or something.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SpartanVissepo:
Is there any way that u could post a mod for the solid black notification bar.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Lol ill make it grey then
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Man this theme is turning into a nightly lmao...but updated the battery no % addons to grey to see better
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
This theme is straight killing it!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] funtimes:
Hey I noticed you had the extended toggles... I was under the impression if u installed it you would lose your theme...is there anyway I can get in on that too??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
the extended toggles is for the unnamed version.. the other version is regular....switch to unnamed rom :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
thanks :) i try to impress. i got tired of flashy colors and graphics so I wanted a simple yet clean slick theme for me and other people who feel the same way

Boot is sooo nice; after having that bright, white htc evo 4G stun me so many times.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] casperlt1:
Mind sending me those instructions about the status bar.Ive noticed the transparent bar only works well with certain launchers (Go Launcher not being one of them :() But I love the minimal theme.Would love to put together a nice minimal white bar w/ clean black icons.Any info is appreciated and thanks for the awesome theme.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
well if you are using go launcher/launcher pro you would have to download this app called multilive wallpaper from the market and set a static wallpaper of your choice through the app for your wallpaper then the statusbar will be transparent. zeam launcher from the market will be default as you need no changes to make the statusbar transparent. adw or adw ex all you would have to do is disable wallpaper hack in adw system settings(that is what I use). touchwiz sucks and it will not allow you to have transparent statusbar :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] casperlt1:
I see..wish it was scrollable like zeam...think the bar could use some tweaks imo
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
What kind of tweaks?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musikalharmony:
Is it normal that my status bar turns grey on some apps then returns to black when I exit the app..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
its normal because the statusbar is transparent..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nobrakes:
You can use uot kitchen to make the status bar black or any color you want. Btw great theme banksmi09
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
thanks :) ..................
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] casperlt1:
Just me personally, but Id like to see the signal bars different just cause I've seen them around..possibly upside down would be interesting.Also with the clock color being that grey/off-white it does kinda vanish at times but I understand its the transparency but if it were solid white it'd match better to maybe and again just me but I dont think that battery icon blends in..... possibly a white bar w/clean minimal black icons...hmmm but these are just my opinions and suggestions and its still a great theme regardless

Edit:

See what I mean about the clock..and I also noticed that little box around the date when its pulled down..dunno if that can be changed but its whatever lol..just trying to help out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Hmm never thought of a white battery lol... I need some input from you all.. do yall think I should make the battery white?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
YES!!!!!!! That would compliment the theme nicely!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Ok ill make changes later :-) this theme is turning into a nightly lmao
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Question will u include the non percentage mod?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Agreed LoL
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
yeah im going to update everything like yesterday
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Thanks man!!!! We all appreciate it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Sorry to ask for lots but can u make your theme with a black Gmail and Gtalk icon like the phone one ... if u can if not no biggie.

Banks, you are a machine lol. You somehow manage to update quickly depending on the rom, in addition to dealing with the requests/inquiries. Great work man and great theme :)

the calendar would be awesome. i have never seen a themed one yet and have always wanted one. thank you
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
edit ill add them tomorrow
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SimplyWess:
I just flashed the update and let me say. I don't like the changes. From what I'm reading your making the theme based on every single input and its taking away from what u originally created. The ek02 edition looks the best.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
This theme is BEAST!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
well I like the white battery better in my opinion it looks better. but im going to change things back around how I like it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Banks, I know you can't satisfy everybody but thanks for trying! Loving your new theme! Keep up the good work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
WELL PEOPLE I WILL ONLY ADD PERSONAL TOUCHES TO THE THEME ON A ONE ON ONE BASIS FROM NOW ON. i FEEL LIKE I WAS TAKING TOO MUCH INPUT FROM EVERYONE AND JUST THROWING IT IN TO THE THEME. I WILL MAKE ONE MORE UPDATE WITH MY TOUCHES ADDED BACK IN AND AFTER THAT THE THEME WILL STAY CONSISTENT AFTER THAT WITH ONLY MAJOR UPGRADES AND SO ON...IF YOU WANT ANY PERSONAL TOUCHES, PM ME AND I WILL SEND YOU THE RIGHT FILES....IT IS GETTING TO OVERWHELMING AND TOO MANY ADDONS. I APOLIGIZE

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] johnhuh:
Quick couple of questions

Hi, first off let me say your theme is JUST AWESOME.

Two small things though,

1) is there anyway to make the notification bar just black instead of transparent?

2) can i also make the notification slide down opaque in anyway? (hard to read).

Thanks so much!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick4mitch:
+1 on this, it has changed greatly since first released, which I'm still rocking, I thought it was supposed to be a minimal black and white theme not transparent ;) Thanks for your hard work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Well the theme is still minimal, but if you use a light background it looks tacky in my opinion to have that black statusbar. If you use a darker background or black, the bar will automatically be black.

As far as adding in a black statusbar, just replace statusbar_background.png in systemui.apk res/drawable-hdpi.. then push it back to your phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
I wish I knew how how to do this stuff! I am just a flashaholic.:)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kalel_293:
i dont see ui folder under system with es file explorer...where would it be under?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalek_Caan:
I could try to throw together the black status bar if you want one .. what version of the theme you on?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] johnhuh:
I'm on calks from and the only issue with the status bar is that it keeps changing colors to the app because its transparent.. even when you scroll through web it changes colors. Sometimes its white so I can't see time batter or connection..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
added black statusbar patch for those who want it
