Were you running a theme before this with white text?

Hmm, that's a hard one without any more info.

Did you try the usual stuff like fix_permissions and clearing dalvik-cache?

You don't need to do it manually. There's is a QR code on the first post you can scan with the barcode scanner but you could also go into the CMUpdater configuration, choose 'Theme Update Settings', 'Manage Theme Servers', go into menu again and choose 'Update Featured Theme Servers' (or pick 'Add Theme Server' and scan the code, same thing).
[Android Themes] thierrz:
Thanks for this theme, it's great! Keep up the good work.
[Android Themes] djengizz:
I just checked again but Akirah's ROM doesn't have any Google apps and the Sholes dump has all the old donut icons. Could you point me to the ROM you mean? Would save a lot of work.
[Android Themes] jroid:
yea, that's what I figured.. takin a look at those anims. today
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Ah, nice than i skip that for today and go and find out if i can get the rescaling on cytown's phone undone (or to an acceptable size).

I tested it today and i really have to agree with Rescue7: it's full of jpg artifacts and i don't think any interpolation was used.
[Android Themes] ceas909:
i got black screen after installing this theme....

UPDATE: GOT IT TO WORK :D
[Android Themes] kassy_ok:
Hey,

i really love those sliding transitions between screens..can anyone tell me what should i do in order to actvate them on a hero rom, coz the fading ones are sooo boring..
[Android Themes] jonbron:
How did you fix the black screen after install problem?
[Android Themes] djengizz:
@ceas909 & jonbron:

I don't know what the problem is you're having. I've never had a black screen after flashing this theme and i don't have much info to go on.

As far as i know it's not a common problem and without more info there's not much i can think of. Did you try reflashing (or wiping)?

The ROM maker or the person making a theme for the ROM you're running should add them but i must admit i know little about Hero ROMs.

I think i now have all the droid icons except the Google talk one (also thanks to rchatburn!):

If anyone spots another one please let me know.
[Android Themes] downtrodn:
Thats purdy!
[Android Themes] jroid:
I found something interesting, check your pm's.
[Android Themes] Jaycha21:
I keep getting stuck on the black screen after the android logo. I wiped and flashed several times.
[Android Themes] roadrunnerx7:
2 questions!

can you make a version with a BLACK notification bar? i just really hate the white one i liike my phone to be dark and then have a blast of colors towards the center... think you can make it black? or maybe make like a separate black bar mod, that i can just flash on top of this theme? kinda like that black bar mod david1171 made

and! so if i were to flash this, then lets say i changed my mind, all i gotta do is flash the theme template, and then ill be right back to stock cyanogen 4.2.3.1 ? because thst the problem i had with other themes and then reverting affterwards if i didnt like it... so is that how it works?

either way, great theme and thanks for your great work! if you could pm me the anwsers it'd be great, cause sometimes i cant check theese threads.

my advice to you though is only make this as official eclair as possible then STOP. because if you keep working on it, eventually the eclair cyanogen will come out, then all this work wont mean much because people will just flash the new rom and get it all anyway=/ or you'll have to start over for the eclair versions. but who knows how long that'll take right? lol anyway, thanks!
[Android Themes] renegadedj:
all i did to revert after the dark dream theme on 4.2.3.1, was to reflash (NO WIPE) the signed 4.2.3.1 zip. i did that, then i flashed the android 2.0 theme and all is well :)
[Android Themes] hybridb:
I did a wipe and then flashed the theme without the AL. All 'default' icons have changed except for Gmail and Calculator, they're still as before. Any ideas why?

Everything else is great :). Though I gotta say I'm not a fan of the drawer tab, I think the default cyanogen one looks nicer.
[Android Themes] rchatburn:
Looks good!
[Android Themes] rchatburn:
Currently the Gmail, Calculator and Calendar have not been changed, these had to be recreated so will probably be in the next release by djengizz
[Android Themes] hybridb:
I was about to do an edit saying the calendar icon also didn't change. Thanks for the info!
[Android Themes] AndroidFiend:
I think the pull up bar should be bigger and fix the trash icon when removing widgets/etc. it gets cut off at bottom besides that grrrrrreat theme
[Android Themes] Rescue7:
Do you have the icon for the Calendar? Because in the screenshot that's the icon for the corporate calendar. Which I don't like much since it looks like the iPhones. :o

But I'm so excited for the next update. :)
[Android Themes] djengizz:
I'm sorry bur for now i'm not going to do this. It's too much deviation from the stock look and the lightness of this theme. The problem is that once i do this i will be hit with many single user requests and it's going to be hell to maintain all these version.

As i said before once this theme gets sorted out a bit more (wait for version 1.0) i am going to be more responsive to user requests and maybe branch this theme of to a version with much more customizing.

Yes.

I knew that when i started this but's it's not a problem. I can always start something new and there's lots of bits in here that are Moto Droid specific and can still be used for 2.0.
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Agreed on both parts.

I need to fix this and it's filed under 'app-drawer fine tuning' in the first post's todo list. It also has a bug i need to fix when going to landscape mode.
[Android Themes] djengizz:
I don't even know the icon for the iPhone but i guess we can't have that ;).

I take a look at the other icon as well but for now i'll be using this.
[Android Themes] Don't Panic:
OK, great. But...how?

Another with a black screen here...

Thanks--

Jeremy B.
[Android Themes] daewond3r:
On a whim, I flashed the black bar mod after flashing this theme and now I have both. Looks great too!
[Android Themes] Rescue7:
Okay thank you! :-)
[Android Themes] djengizz:
I took a look at Stericson's lockscreen but i'm not quite sure yet. I think i'm going to include it because Cyanogen might include it in his Roms anyway. For the next release i probably make a light version (noAL, no lockscreen) and a full version with the lockscreen.

I made a first draft. The buttons are a complete gimmick of course and you still need to press the buttons on the bottom of the screen.

I also need to redo the battery icons because the batterry view doesn't look right yet.
[Android Themes] tbgreen:
i wld suggest to to add [MOD] Black Notification Bars to 2.0 stock theme. this look amazing!
[Android Themes] Bustacoal:
Black Screen

I've tried wiping and flashing this and then not wiping and flashing this. And several other random methods and only made it to a black screen =/ Any solutions?
[Android Themes] jroid:
wow looks great man. any idea on how to port the real eclair lockscreen?? or is that a no-go as well
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Thanks, good tip. I'll be forwarding people with that request to the thread.
[Android Themes] djengizz:
The things i would try if i run into problems like this (in that order):

-wipe dalvik-cache, run fix_permissions and repair ext filesystem

-if that doesn't work: flash theme-template or CyanogenMod and reflash the theme again.

-If that doesn't work my last resort would be to repartition my sdcard and start over with the instructions from the CyanogenMod thread. Then after CM is working again, reflash the theme. You will loose all your applications but i found that this fixes almost any errors that are not resolved by above steps.
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Yup, that also goes beyond theming.

I wouldn't say it's impossible (look at what Stericson accomplished so far!) but it's not something i can do.
[Android Themes] severedembrace:
I think most people would be happy with this (non-functional) lockscreen for now.
[Android Themes] roadrunnerx7:
you got yourself a nice plan there, smart man! and thanks again! :)

thats awesome

i agree cause its still a step up from the stock 1.6
[Android Themes] KROMO50:
We getting a new release
[Android Themes] rivera618:
actually, if you look at this screenshot, the calendar icon is different
[Android Themes] djengizz:
That's a nice high-res screenshot, thnx.

I'm changing the calendar icon to this for the next release.
[Android Themes] Rescue7:
That lock screen looks great! even if the buttons don't work. Everything is better than the lock screen from Android 1.6 D:

I flashed the black status bar, and it looks cool but is there any way I can go back? because the battery icon is grey and I don't like that.
[Android Themes] AndroidFiend:
when is the next release coming?
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Earliest Friday, latest over the weekend.

If i release i want to have some time to give support when needed and i want to run this stuff for a bit before i throw it out there.

Still have some finetuning to do as well. Also Cyanogen is probably doing a bugfix release soon so it would be nice if i can port before releasing.
[Android Themes] roadrunnerx7:
maybe try reflashing the theme? or reflash cm then the theme. should work. lemme kno hwo it goes!
[Android Themes] jroid:
he just tweeted that it'll probably be released tomm. and quick update everyone drizzy,barak, and twisted have booted the droid rom barak has been working on!! great progress so far!
[Android Themes] djbootleg:
cant wait for the next release
[Android Themes] jroid:
guys, i've created a new g-talk icon that's going into the next release. It looks very good and innovative than what the stock droid gtalk icon (even the stock gtalk) looks like. I think you guys'll like it ;)
[Android Themes] AndroidFiend:
screenshot?

and I wonder if we can jus get a beta of the theme because I really want this on my phone now
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Sorry, but you have to wait one more day. I'm finishing off and polishing things right now and hope we can get a release from Cyanogen soon. If that's not going to come i'll release anyway.

It depends on what i get done tonight but i'm still aiming for a release tomorrow.

Oh and btw Cytown's new phone is out for now. I had two reports of people getting FC's when receiving a call.

I'm not sure what is causing this and it's probably not cytown's phone because a lot of people are running it. Until i do some more testing it's out for now and i'm reverting back to Cyanogen's version just to make sure.
[Android Themes] djbootleg:
if its been working good for us can we just pull phone.apk from this build and push it to ur latest tomorrow?
[Android Themes] djengizz:
You haven't been running Cytown's new phone if your on my theme.

I have been using it with my theme (i wanted to include it) and so did a couple of other people and that setup gave FC's.

So i'm reverting back to the one that you're running now for the next release.
[Android Themes] djbootleg:
oh alright,

lol

is the one ur keeping th eone with the big pciture for the caller id?
[Android Themes] djengizz:
It's the Cyanogen's one that if i'm not mistaken already displays a larger pictures than stock.

It's not the one with the even larger picture :D.
[Android Themes] rikupw:
Metamorph Project support?

Any chance for metamorph theming support? :-) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=574556

it's a script that k4str0 and Stericson and I started working on, excellent script. you should take a look guy ;-)

It's as easy as creating a directory tree, placing the files you want to add/replace into the tree, creating a theme.thm file, (make sure to add .nomedia) and zip up the whole thing and thats it!

check it out! it's amazing ;-)

PS: k4str0 ported a zip binary to android, allowing dynamic updating of zip files. (any zip files, jar, apk, zip, ;-) ). this means what? basically it means SMALLER DOWNLOADS. ease of use. and no chance of it being illegal. AT ALL. (minus image copywrite) its a cli script ;-) check it out dudes
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Yea, i know.

I've been following that thread and it's a great project. I'm planning on adding support and because you reminded me it's now on my ToDo list.
[Android Themes] jroid:
Here it is

Any themer/dev is more than welcome to use, of course just give credit where it's due :)
[Android Themes] ArmandHammer:
First thing: Great theme!!

One suggestion, a simple skin for the music player. I hate the baby blue look. Maybe something clear and simple.

THanks for the hard work
[Android Themes] AndroidFiend:
I think he's trying to go for the stock look. But it would make the theme better if he had some widgets themed :)
[Android Themes] Brandice128:
djengizz, do you have the concrete background? If you do can I get it? Cus I can't find it anywhere to save to my computer and I would imagine you have it, please reply :cool:
[Android Themes] pantlessjim:
If you have the advance launcher version, the wallpaper is in the wallpaper gallery. If not, you could extract it from the launcher.apk from the advance launcher version.
[Android Themes] KROMO50:
hey djengizz are you going to put in the new dialer, and is there a way to put the tabs in the dialer on the bottom so they can be close to the call button

thanks again for the best theme around
[Android Themes] djengizz:
I'll have a look for the next release but i don't think that if i change it it will deviate much from the stock look-and-feel.
[Android Themes] djengizz:
There you go sir:

Mind you this is not an official Droid wallpaper, just something i created because i think it looks cool and it looks a bit like the screenshots from the Moto Droid (i couldn't find the real thing).
[Android Themes] djengizz:
What do you mean by new dialer? This one is themed to mimic the eclair one.

Putting the tabs in on the bottom requires a little bit more than theming i'm afraid.
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Oke guys, i just woke up and i see that Cyanogen hasn't released.

Yesterday I managed to fx the bugs with the in-call dialpad, the app drawer in landscape and the app drawer's bin so I'm going to release anyway.

First i'm going to make some coffee, then get organized for a release.

Might still take some time because i need to revert back to a fresh CM install and test my changes and change all the files for the CMUpdater.

So i hope you can flash the new release in a couple of hours.

If Cyanogen releases, i think i can port it quick enough cause then there won't be any new changes.
[Android Themes] Kubax83:
WHOOOPS... wrong thread xD

sorry folks.. feel free to delete it ^^
[Android Themes] MLIGN:
DUDE!!

Make This Work On Akirah's 3.0 ROM I Would Love You I Make Hero ROMs But I Prefer Akirah's 3.0.. If You Can Make It For That Then I Would Not Have To Do It! Or Does It Already Work On It I Didnt Read Fully Into It.
[Android Themes] djengizz:
To be honest, i've never ran anything else than Cyanogen or Enomther's ROMs.

Don't even know if things like Maps and Youtube work for Hero.

I'm going to include metamorph support for the next release (or i'll just add it to this release once it's out). That should make things easier to port to any ROM.
[Android Themes] MLIGN:
oh ok well yeah im not saying for hero just for the akirah rom? does it have support?
[Android Themes] djengizz:
New version is out :).

V0.5 'the Stericson version'

-Stericson lockscreen

[Android Themes] PremierITA:
really good.

can you upload it on host server, please? i can't use cm updater.

I need eclair_theme_cm4.2.3.1_v0.5_signed.zip

Thanks
[Android Themes] XxKOLOHExX:
Cool amn will try. Downloading now
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Should be there. I forgot the download links.
[Android Themes] krixl:
Will there be a non stericson version of the theme?
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Check the first post. There's a light version without the lockscreen and the advanced launcher.
[Android Themes] Rescue7:
Please help me out. After I flashed the theme, whenever I try to go into GMail, I get a black screen that says, "Waiting for sync" and then I just get a force close. What can I do? :(
[Android Themes] XxKOLOHExX:
How can i change th background image of the lockscreen (Stericson Lockscreen)?
[Android Themes] djengizz:
It's transparant so it's shows whatever background you have.
[Android Themes] Rescue7:
To be more specific the force close is com.google.android.gm :\

Also, the lock screen looks really bad in landscape.

Edit: I also really don't like the new Google Talk icon.
[Android Themes] XxKOLOHExX:
Okay thanks
[Android Themes] oMszKikiIzWavyo:
Wow This Looks Exactly Like 2.0 Now. Best Theme Ever!!!

Keep Up The Amazing Work
[Android Themes] djengizz:
****, i didn't even know it could rotate, how do you do this?

Did you try clearing the data for Gmail and GmailProvider?
[Android Themes] Rescue7:
Well I have a G1 so when I have the keyboard open and I press the end button the lock screen goes into keyboard and its stretched out and odd looking.

That's the thing, Gmail shows up under manage applications, and I cleared data. But GMail Provider no longer shows up. I click on it and it says could not be found.
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Ah, im on a MT3G so that's why. I guess i need a G1 now for testing as well :(.

Sorry, it's called Gmail storage. Maybe try the theme template and than reflash the theme.
[Android Themes] Rescue7:
Well since you don't have a G1, can't you disable the lock screen from changing to landscape somehow?

Google Storage doesn't show either.

Should I reflash Cyanogen then the theme? Or just the theme?
[Android Themes] djengizz:
No, CM doesn't contain the Google apps. Flash the template, let it boot, clear data for both Gmail and Gmail storage and reflash the theme. That might fix things.
[Android Themes] mackster248:
Awesome theme man.... this makes the switch from hero roms back to donut a lot nicer =].

thanks for your work.
[Android Themes] woSaa:
v0.5v rulez, its very very nice!!!! so amazing... :D thanks djengizz
[Android Themes] moskuito:
First off, theme's amazing! Great work!

Just one bug : settings of number of icons to be shown on advance launcher app tray are not working.. I mean, no matter the number I choose, it keeps showing always 5 icons per row...

Am I the only one experiencing that?
[Android Themes] djengizz:
No, i've noticed the same.

I'll test tonight to see if it does the same thing on stock CM without the theme.
[Android Themes] Wysie:
djengizz: It's reported in the Advanced Launcher thread itself, seems to be a bug with the Advanced Launcher itself. Thanks for the wonderful theme! :)
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Ah, thanks for the heads-up, i didn't know that. That saves me some testing / fixing. Thanks!
[Android Themes] Eclipse9069:
Awesome job on the theme!

It's making the switch from hero 100x easier!

Thanks a bunch!
[Android Themes] moskuito:
Allright, so let's hope on an advanced fix then... :p
[Android Themes] katsumeiyo:
i'm getting fc on gmail. haven't been able to check email all morning, after flashing 0.5?

rebooted couple of times, reflashed HTC's then cm, then reflashed theme... same results fc.

wiped, format sd, reinstall cm, logged into phone, then applied theme, reboot, still fc on gmail..
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Could you try flashing the theme template, reboot and clear data for Gmail and Gmail Storage, then reflash the theme and report back?
[Android Themes] katsumeiyo:
how do i clear the data for gmail and gmail storage, mount the ext partition and delete them from the cache folders?
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Go into settings, applications, manage applications and find the gmail entries in the list. Open them and press the Clear Data button.
[Android Themes] AndroidFiend:
you have done it once again! great job! but one easy thing you can do is skin the folder because all other folders like contacts starred/etc. have the grey green folder but only the folder is just plain 1.5 folder please change. I love the new lockscreen...once stericson puts the settings from lockscreen onto settings.apk you might be able to put the unlock button as an unlock feature....Great theme I am loving it.
[Android Themes] jweezy92:
Yeah man u deff. Did it this time im loving the new lockscreen just wish the buttons worked -_- no big deal u told me you think cyanogen mite be putting it on his new rom =) so yeah thanks man keeeeep the theme commmmming
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Thanks :).

That's a great idea about the folders, didn't think of that.

It's on my ToDo list as of now.
[Android Themes] AndroidFiend:
uh oh I'm also having a gmail forceclose
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Ok, that's the third one.

Anyone else experiencing this? Anyone with a working gmail?

Trying to find out if i need to pull this release since i haven't experienced any problems yet and i'm also coming from a fresh install...
[Android Themes] djengizz:
I found out there's a difference between the 'HTC 1.6 rooted base' gmail version and the 'HTC recovery image'.

I'm guessing everyone with Gmail FC's have used the HTC recovery image before flashing CM?
[Android Themes] AndroidFiend:
Yes most likely everyone used the HTC "Recovery" Image because that's said in cyanogens install guide. people have said that HTC 1.6 Rooted base gave some problems towards google apps.
[Android Themes] jweezy92:
heres a wallpaper i just did you could add it to your next version and ill just change v0.5 to 0.6! check it out

http://tinypic.com/r/sc5bt2/4
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Anyone with the Gmail FC's brave enough to try this fix?

http://www.mediafire.com/?yt4j1emigzy

Please report back if it solves the problem.

Only try this if you have a nandroid backup please.
[Android Themes] cgrunner:
I had the Gmail FC issue and this small update worked for me.

Thanks.
[Android Themes] AndroidFiend:
This update has fixed the problem
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Ok, that's good news.

Please, anyone else? I need confirmation so i can replace the downloads.
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Ok, that's enough for me, starting to replace them now.

Thanks guys for testing!
[Android Themes] chowdarygm:
Confirmed working after the update.zip .... Thank you....

@djengizz : oops....i didnt check your post.... sorry
[Android Themes] edwinr29:
Is the Download Link working???

im getting 404, not found when trying to dl

edit: Never Mind, working now
[Android Themes] AndroidFiend:
found another problem...Strericson's LS on landscape mode is stretched out like crazy...But that's not really much of a problem for me. just pointing it out
[Android Themes] djengizz:
Sorry, but the download links are down for now.

I'm creating three new version with this fix and reverting all the Google apps to the one from the HTC image.

I'll keep you updated and post when the downloads are up again.
[Android Themes] djengizz:
I know, this was already reported. I am on a MTG3 and i wasn't able to test this (heck, i didn't even know it was a feature).

I'm in need for a G1 tester i guess (i should have anticipated this since it's the freakin' Dream forum :D).
[Android Themes] magana1268:
theme eclair

The server don't work
[Android Themes] magana1268:
The server don't work
[Android Themes] djengizz:
There's still an issue with Gmail for either 'HTC 1.6 rooted base' or 'HTC 1.6 recovery image'.

For now i am going to base the build on the recovery image cause i think most users are coming from that (all G1 users).

I'll supply a separate update.zip for anybody who followed CM installation instructions for the Magic (and is coming from the rooted base) to fix the problem.

Sorry for the problems everybody!
[Android Themes] jweezy92:
just flash the arman ra recovery image i just did it and it fixed my problem wit hte gmail fc !
