1. first off id like to thank Tehseano and Moonsspoon for making the hero theme in the first place and because i used a couple of parts from their theme

2. Stericson for rebuilding the htc music to work on cupcake and for helpin me understand things

3. Beagz for takin the time to help me understand more about xml edits and stayed by ready to answer any questions i had, and for the modifed htc music and music widget

4. sir mez for helpin me to learn what xmls i needed to change to get the desired effects.

6. Thanks To Manup456 For allowing me to modify His Widgets for use with my theme

7. Thanks To rgv151 For his Modified MMS.apk

9. Ted417 and Manup456 For The Skeletal Clock Collaboration

12. Stericson For His New And Improved Modified Lockscreen

Dark Hero 4.0.4 09/03 Stericson's New Updates To the Lockscreen Also Changed Some Things In It Graphic Wise DO NOT WIPE BEFORE OR AFTER FLASHING AND IF YOU HAVE AN ANALOG CLOCK ON YOUR HOMESCREEN REMOVE FROM HOMESCREEN BEFORE FLASHING
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] dav1boy:
good job on this... but just as a heads up, you should probably add a screen shot of the clock it does come with or mention in the op that the "hero" style clock seen can be downloaded from the market. a lot of people are going to wonder why its not in the theme by default...
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
There you go clock and music widget it was already in the theme i just didnt think to take a screenshot of it
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] dav1boy:
cool beans... itll saves you the headache of people asking, where can i get that clock widget? and trust me it will come in a flurry like on other threads... have you notice any loss in functionality with this theme on this rom? im going to flash it anyways but i wanted to know if you noticed any yet....
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] nolageek:
Very cool about to download and check it out. Are the button highlights green or orange? (I guess I'll find out, but other's might want to know.)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
no i rebuilt it specifically for this rom because its the one i use
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
button highlights are actually grey and dark grey
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] evilwolf:
Do you know what is the name of "hero" style clock on the market?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
weather widget donate
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Smokuevo:
any way of making selections being green? and like google status being green?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
wut selections and the purpose of me makin it the color it is so that its a little different form Tehseanos hero theme
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] namsir:
forgot to sign it?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
no the theme is inside a zip file along with something extra thats why it says unzip in the name
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] namsir:
Can't install this theme......something is wrong with the update-script
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
dude after you download it unzip it the theme is inside
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] namsir:
aghhhhhh.... lol got it now :D thanks
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
like i said a little something extra
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] kitsunisan:
Looks interesting, but no HTC keyboard means I won't be trying it. I look forward to it being included though, I really like the looks of it.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
i dont use the htc keyboard i use better keyboard but i am goin to get one made for those that want it or you can check with Beagz he makes them custom
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] kockroach:
You really shouldn't be putting that "extra" file in there, as it is a paid app. That is against policy to do this.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] mikfento:
I know, that's why it's strange. Nothing should be causing the issue. I even tried leaving the htcmusic installed on the cyan build without the theme, and then themeing it, and it still won't work. very odd.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
did you try it from the app drawer
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] mikfento:
Sure did......same response every time, fc. =( I need to get a functioning music player on there so I can listen =)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
well dark hero 3.9 has the stock player with the dark hero widget i know it works use it
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] mikfento:
Just flash the 3.9 and it should work then? Cool. I guess I could just roll it back to the nandroid backup. It had theme and stock music and it was fine. Just wish i could get the darned thing to work. I'll let you know if I figure it out.

Fantastic theme btw and thanks for all your help.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] innerspace:
thanks for 3.9, will flash in about an hour and edit this with any problems.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Ohene:
im havin a problem flashing its stuck on the boot image ive tried a wipe and same thing. Did i miss something?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] mikfento:
If you had an older version of the theme installed, it might hang, mine did. I reflashed cyan's build and then flashed the new theme, all was well.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
yeah you missed where it said it takes a few for it to load due to the new launcher give it time
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Ohene:
Tried that still didnt work...
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Ohene:
Ok ill give it some time. Thanks again Ur A Beast w/ this!
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] mikfento:
Good point. Definitely wait and see. When I did get it to work it was on that screen for about 10 minutes before it went through.....don't jump the gun! :o
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
a sure sign that its looping is if the call, home, back, and call end key light up and go off and it doesnt load in say 5 minutes your in a bootloop
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Ohene:
yea theyve been lightin up then shutting off etc
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
Did you wipe after installing the theme or cyanogen 3.9 if so dont
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Ohene:
when it first started to loop I wiped reinstalled 3.8.6.1 (that flashed fine) then tried to flash the 3.9 and got the loop. but i havent wiped since then
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
theres your problem you have to flash the cyanogen 3.9 rom then flash the dark hero 3.9 theme
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Sirchuk:
Does running an alternate theme slow down the G1? Also, anyone know where I can find the green android version of this wallpaper?

Thanks!
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
htc hero 1.45 from tehseano
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Ohene:
LOL oh my fault! wow... howd i mess that up Thank man
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] CHUHwant:
i'm not sure where to post this, but i'm a graphic designer (not a coder) -if anyone needs help with graphics for apps or themes, i'd love to help. i always have a lot of ideas for things, but i don't know code.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] rondey-:
Is there a chance the 3.9 theme will work with cyanogens 3.6.8.1 without breaking anything?

This rom has been treating me good, dont want to jump to an experimental build but want to try the new launcher. Love the theme :)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] mr_black03:
I would be UBER appreciative if i could use your background for a super secret project <? include("wink.php") ?> LOL.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] dosznyk:
where can i get the cyanogen 3.9?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Mr. Moe:
This theme is NICE. currently using it on cy 3.9
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] ihackyourtech:
Does this theme load the homescreen fast for you guys? I have about 10 widgets on my homescreen and without a theme it loads fast on cyanogen's latest rom. Anyone?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
It loads fast for me and i have about 3 of my home screens filled with

Stuff
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
Will not work on 3.8.6.1 but 3.9 is just as fast if not faster and i havent

Had any problems
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] ihackyourtech:
cool theme. Boot time was fairly fast. Works great and runs smooth.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] rondey-:
Ok thanks, I will look through the thread on the 3.9 build and make sure everything I use is in working order. Once again love the theme and cyanogen is the man, I think I finally found a theme I am gonna stick with.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
Sure have at it
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] mr_black03:
Thx! i just cant find the directory that holds it lol, do you have an orig?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] cupOjo:
So if it's not getting past the G1 screen after flashing 3.9 do I still need to wait longer, or should I do a wipe?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
look in framework then framework-res.apk then res and then drawable its called default_wallpaper
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
makes sure your running cyanogens 3.9 build first then flash the dark hero 3.9 theme
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] cupOjo:
Ok I didn't even know 3.9 was out so I downloaded it and now its working great, thanks!
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
Htc Music Dark Hero For 3.9 Posted Thanks Beagz
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] cupOjo:
How come this theme only has 3 homescreens?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
It comes default 3 Home screens since it's for Cyanogen's ROM v. 3.9 but you can change it to more by going to Menu/Extended/Home screen then rebooting.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
Does the separate update for the 3.9 HTC Music.apk remove the original Music.apk or do I have to remove it manually?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
it removes it
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] jtothada:
has any one tested 3.9 and htc music together?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
yes i have before i even posted it it works fine
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] jtothada:
ok i rebooted 3.6.8.1 wiped, (now) flashing 3.9 and then update theme, and then update htc music for 3.9 right?:)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
no need to wipe flash cyanogen build 3.9 flash dark hero theme 3.9 then flash htc music dark hero 3.9
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] jtothada:
yea i rebooted so i can wipe then flash but it works perfect you dudes rock!:D i just dont get why everyones flash to 3.9?:confused:
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
hit menu then select extended that would be why
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] chrisrj28:
I tried to flash this and it bootlooped on me. I even wiped and same thing. Any thoughts why that may have happened. I was using Cy 3.6.81 and renamed the file update. It completed and just bootlooped
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
Which Theme file did you download hopefully not the 3.9 If so Theres Your problem it only works On cyanogen 3.9
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] chrisrj28:
Wow I am not a noob but I so pulled a noob move. Lol I downloaded the first one without looking into what I was downloading. Ok I think my Senior Member badge should be revoked for 3 days as punishment lol
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
Its all good your not the first
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] EZ14U2NV:
i'd donate/pay for a green version of this theme pm me
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] innerspace:
ooof... htc music fc on launch. CM 3.9 w/ your theme.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
thats weird it works fine on mine no problems

it was tested by Beagz Before releasin it to me and i tested before releasin it to you guys
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Make sure you have correct version
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] innerspace:
my most sincere apologies...

to armyranger and beagz.

flashed the correct file for 3.9 and ..... its official everyone, i now know i must sleep. I don't get the music app or the widget. Update says all is well but nothing is there after reboot. I think I'm gonna kill it all when I wake up and reinstall CM 3.9, then your theme, then this player. I lost my data connection tonight too so it seems something is rotten in denmark.

thanks for this guys, love this player and i'm sure it will install just fine once my brain is working again.

Have a good weekend fellas.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
Its all good Ive reached brain failure myself on several occasions no harm no foul

Update Released New Buttons lockscreen and White Text For Status Bar Drop Down
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
Can you post pictures of the update please and do I have to reinstall HTC Music.apk if I install this update?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
yes you have to reflash htc music
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
Anyone That downloaded the new update im uploading a new one please redownload
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
What went wrong with the one you just had up?, already flashed that one and it's works great so far.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
i left a one of the custom buttons out
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
Everything works great and it looks better especially the Notification pull-down bar but the buttons have this slightly weird shape now. I have a request and a suggestion, my request is the updated brightness widget from manup (to match the theme of course) and my suggestion is to the battery icon in the lockscreen and notification status bar, first since this is a Dark theme then why not change the color of the battery in the notification status bar to match the one in the lockscreen and to the battery icon in the lockscreen...I think it would look a lot better if it was the same shape and direction of the one in the notification status bar (nobody does this)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
The widgets are manups newest ones i already have the battery in the works on both of you suggestions
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
You sure?, because I downloaded the .zip you have in the first post and the brightness widget still has the short up and down arrows and Manup's update one has longer arrows.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
That's great to hear bro, thanks.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] innerspace:
its like the cyanogen 500 in here...

updates coming too quickly! lol. will flash new update tonight, thx for including manups widgets, they look nice with your theme.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] jet69xxx:
epic theme, thanks. can you post pics of the changes in the new update though?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
Theyre already posted
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
Im sure because i talked to manup this mornin after he had released the updated brightness to ask for permission to use them in this theme and he advised me that he

He had just released it and to download the newest version from his thread which i did
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
Well I'll try downloading the .zip again from the first post because like I said I still have the brightness widget with the short arrows.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
Ill check his thread to see if there was something i missed
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
Oh yea, did you click on After =) IM Here! or on the Attached Files link? because the update is where it says After =) IM Here!
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
I just noticed that i have it now
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] alexguitar:
awesome theme!

I just wanted to way thank you very much for your hard work. kick ass theme.

P.S. this is my first time ever posting on a thread.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] eyalien:
Great "A" theme

Thank you very much for this.. keep up the good work u deserve it... :D
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] cavz903:
Hey Guys, i just flashed this theme for cyan 3.9. May i first say, i absolutely love it!!! the only thing i would change would be the grey highlight. personally i would make it red. but thats just me. After flashing the theme, i flashed the music theme. now when i try to open the music, it says, process.com.htc.music has stopped unexpectedly. (force close) any ideas? thanks
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] armyranger251:
Well first make sure your downloading the correct htc music dark hero

It is labeled Htc Music Dark Hero 3.9 thats the one you have to use for cyanogen 3.9
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] zgmf-x322a:
Dark Hero Theme Only For Cyanogen 3.9 installed on cyanogen 3.6.8.1 produced boot loop.....
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Karolis:
I love this theme, but in my opinion glossy buttons look cheap.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
In general or just the ones added?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Makes sense. Please use the one for 3.6.8.1
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Karolis:
I've realized I wasn't very clear. I was talking about glossy VK buttons. All other buttons look fine to me.

Is there a way I can just get the default keyboard? Would pushing HTC_IME.apk fix the "problem"?

EDIT: just pushing HTC_IME.apk didn't help. Any other creative ideas? :)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
sorry, let me edit that out.

Ok. is there a VK that you would like better or a custom version I could do for you?

If you just want the original. Just push it to system/app since that is where the edited one resides.

If you have cyan 3.9 as your ROM or 3.8.6.1 you can just do this from adb

adb remount

adb shell cp data/app/HTC_IME.apk system/app/HTC_IME.apk

adb shell reboot

that should take care of it.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] cavz903:
Yes its the Htc Dark Hero 3.9. thats why i dont understand.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Karolis:
I did push HTC_IME.apk, and here's what I get:
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Wow. That was a vk I did for a theme long ago. It was designed specifically and never released separately. How did you find it? Do you want me to send you the default one? If you pm me I will upload it. If you have gmail I can send it direct.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] macfreaker:
Tried it to install on 3.6.9 but stays in a boot loop.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Start from scratch. Reflash the ROM AFTER wiping. Then apply theme. Make sure you use matching versions.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] illrific:
can i install the widgets without installing the theme or should i install the theme den the widgets ?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
widgets should be independant of themes. They are ROM dependant.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] illrific:
so that means i can install it wit no prob
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
absolutely yes
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] illrific:
awright thanks good looking out
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] illrific:
oo kay now theres a problem becuz it didnt work it would say "E:No signature(5files) den it would abort the installation
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
How did you install them?, because all you have to do is download the .zip open it up, move all the .apks to the root of your SD card, open up a file browser like ASTRO, click on the .apk and press install.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] illrific:
dats all i gotta do ugh stupid me i tried to install it threw the recovery mode now that i now that thanks

lmaoo @ your signature its tight
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
You got it homie, no problem. :cool:

Thanks.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] amarkow2:
Just flashed this...I am really liking it a lot! I love the touch flo look in the dialer/contacts. everything looks great and its running smooth so far...THANKS! Great work!

my only request is this:

for the keyboard...it would be really nice to have a t9 keyboard with the predictive text...like the keyboard that is in the Palm Pre theme for Cyan's builds...
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
Just pull the touchpal.apk and touchpalenglishpack.apk from the Palm Pre theme, put it in the root of your SD card and install it with a file browser like ASTRO, that's what I did and it looks great with this theme.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] illrific:
ugh my phone stayed in landscape mode everysince i put those widgets on my phone
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
Don't know why that would happen, did you Reboot?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] illrific:
yea i did it twice in a row maybe its jst my phone so ima jst turn it off for awhile den see watt happens
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
If you kept the .apks in the root of your SD card then uninstall the widgets and reinstall them, if you didn't then make a back-up with ASTRO and do the same, if that doesn't fix it then try toggling the Orientation in both Settings and in Spare Parts.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] illrific:
awright well let me turn it bak on
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] amarkow2:
hey...So i did what you suggested and I have run into a problem...the keyboard pops up but the second you touch it is freezes and wont go away until I reboot the phone...is there something else you did when you pulled those apks and installed? Have you seen this problem at all?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
That hasn't happened to me, it might of installed incorrectly, try uninstalling and reinstalling again if it still happens then you might need to get libtouchpal.so from the Palm Pre theme and put it in the lib folder.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] amarkow2:
I guess i should thought of doing that when it happened...uninstalled, redownloaded, reinstalled...WORKING!!!

This is a great keyboard...thanks to whomever built it!!!

and thanks Kyros for the help...from now on if something isnt working im gonna uninstall and reinstall before asking for help!

this place rocks!
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] maybeoneday:
Thanks guys love this theme, Thats it .... I'm done .... No more wiping and flashing!!!! Oh wait is that another new rom I see I'll be right back..LOL
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] gtrplr71:
beatiful theme great work. how do i get that wallpaper? sorry found it brainfart
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] SwiSsRoLL58:
Music download

i downloaded the music add on it it keeps force closing on me..

do you know how to fix or get my the original music player back?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Stretch3000:
This looks good man.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
That usually happens when you download the add-on for the incorrect version.

Download and flash the correct version.

If you just want the orignal back you may need to reflash the ROM first and then the theme.

3.9 will only work with the 3.9 music player

3.6.7.x and 3.6.8 both use the 3.6.7 music player.

DON'T MIX THEM!!
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] chevycowboyusa:
cm 3.9.1

I just flashed the cm 3.9.1. I still have most of the theme (I didn't wipe)

All looks good except the cool "Dark Hero" boot screen.

Are you working on 3.9.1?

I really like your themes and will continue to use them. THANKS!
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Full on port of 3.9.1

full ROM update with theme included.

Has HtcMusic (chameleon) and HTC_IME keyboard.

No other installs needed. Just download to sdcard and flash.

Dark_Hero Full ROM Update with HTC Music
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] All~G1:
Yo beagz, you and armyranger are beast... love the theme. The full update is ingenious! Kinda wanted to try out the 1.4 recovery tool, but with this there is no need! thanks buddy!!!
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] cupOjo:
Ok so I am also trying to do this, but when I put the .apk files on my sdcard then go to ASTRO, for some reason it says it doesn't recognize the .apk file. Am I missing something or does this not work on Cy's 3.9?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] _Kyros_:
What exactly does it say when you click on it in ASTRO? Matter fact tell me the steps you took to install it.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] innerspace:
BIG-CUPS on the blanket update

No need to muck around with two flashes, me likey! And way to keep up with cyanogen, such a busy bee that one.

New chameleon player is, i assume, the HTC music player, cause I don't see anything called chameleon player..lulz. Unfortunately, player half FCs when trying to access anything from the menu. Can view the menu but can't add to playlist or view now playing info or albums/artists etc. Can toggle shuffle tho and the player seems to work well otherwise.

Everything else looks solid with the theme. Thanks for the update!
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] amarkow2:
i have it running smoothly on 3.9 but i used apps installer to install apks... works great and looks great...i think this is by far the best keyboard around...
