[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Koush will build RC3 sometime this week and I will update the themes the same day :).

Not sure what's happening, try rebooting once and then applying the metamorph.

Or do this (what I do):

In the ROM zip, go to system/framework/framework-res.apk/res and drag and drop the contents of the Metamorph (res/drawable and res/drawable-hdpi) in the right locations. Then flash the ROM again. It tales a minute and I do this for all the Nightlies and never use metamorph.

Hope this helps :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] BrokenWall:
But if I purchase your T-Mobile Themes on the market they will do everything these will do except for the lockscreen correct?

And they will work with all nightlies as well as be updated as you work on them and will also help support your work?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Yes, the market themes will work with any build (RC/Nightly/Stable). You can complete the market themes by applying the morphs from the 2nd post which will theme the missing links including the lockscreen.

But I want to stress that you guys shouldn't feel like you have to buy the themes if you want to use them.

I promise, I will update the traditional themes here within hours of RC3 release :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] BrokenWall:
Well you don't have the APKs here for the Theme Chooser method so why not support you for the ability to use them on any build.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
UPDATE

All themes updated for CM7 RC3.

Uploading new files right now.

Please test and post feedback.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] mrRobinson:
Will test!

Quick question: if i just flash your theme .zip and don't use any of the icons packs/wallpapers you provide what is the difference between lucid and onyx? I've flash them interchangeably and really see no difference. I don't use any of the facebook / twitter/ google search widgets either.

edit2: Lucid looking good! don't notice any issues yet. I can't speak on your market as i slipstream in pendos as that seems to help avoid issues.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
There are a few differences like the battery icon, statusbar pulldowm images, lockscreen etc. But the main difference is the widgets. If you don't use them, they're essentially the same.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] chrlswltrs:
Uploading to the market? I keep checking but no update is showing for Vivid theme.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
The update is for the flashable themes in this thread. The market themes don't need to be updated with every build.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] chrlswltrs:
Thanks. I was just curious if there were things that were updated that I'm missing out on.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] bakron1:
How to Install Theme Icons

I flashed the Lucid theme and it look great, I was curious on how to update the icons to look like your pic's? I downloaded the extras apps and extra zip files. Do I flash these through clockwork like the theme?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Instructions are in the 2nd post :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thomas suh:
RC3 is out...but...??

Thank you for update the Lucid theme~~

I found out the CM7 RC3 was out yesterday...but

I don't find any differences from RC2..?

For example,Nexus Carema Zoom is still not working by Vol.up and down

and movie player still not functioning....?

Does anyone know about those problems...??
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] umbrae:
Thank you for your hard work. Lucid is running beautifully on RC3.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Not sure when those will be fixed but you're better off posting in the ROM thread as I have nothing to do with the ROM development :).

Thanks :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
UPDATE

CM7 RC4, for all intents and purposes, is the same as RC3.

I have tested the RC3 themes on RC4 and they work flawlessly.

I don't want to upload the themes again simply for the sake of changing the filename from RC3 to RC4 :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] swa2k4:
Love the extra clean look of the monochrome theme!! Perfect on my setup!

Looks Great! Highly Recommended on CM7 RC4!! Also using Launcher PRO

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Disable the battery % in CM settings to see my battery icon :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] surfer3000:
Sonny, I installed Vivid from the Android store.Since a few days (Vivid update yesterday if I remember well) the buttons "Bluetooth, Mute, and Speaker" do not light up anymore (eg turn green). They do work however.

I reinstalled CyanogenMod 7,Nexus S V7.0.0-RC4 and reinstalled Vivid but it did not help. If I uninstall Vivid the buttons do work.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
The color was accidentally changed from Green to Grey. If you notice the button pops out when turned on.

It will be changed back to Green in the next update. Thanks for letting me know :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thomas suh:
favor~

Hello~Sonny~

This is Thomas again.

Would you do me a favor?

Recently,I bought a copy of Vivid theme and It looks really pretty~

but one thing, Can you make the status bar which controls by framework re apk..

to transparent one? I think It will look better for this theme because as you know it's all colorful,isn't it?

If you have some time to spare then please ~

pointzero6@naver.com

Thank you~

Thomas
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Hey Thomas,

Unfortunately, making the statusbar transparent is beyond the scope of the theme engine as it requires a smali edit.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] bakron1:
I love your Vivid theme, using it on my NS running CM7 RC4 with Netarcy 1.3.2 cfs w/BLN kernel. I tried updating to the latest nightly NS CM7 #37, but when I flash your Vivid RC3 theme, I get a boot loop, no problem. I can live with RC4 until RC5 is released and you update the theme for it. Very nice work
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] chrlswltrs:
No RC5, CM7.0 Stable is out!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thomas suh:
In the stable CM7 NS~

Hello~ Sonny~

How is everything going?

As you know that the CM7 stable version released~

and I am wondering what has got changed? Would you please tell me?

I wish they have upgraded camera zoom and battery problem...

Thank you ~

Thomas
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
CM7 stable is essentially the same as RC4 so those bugs aren't fixed. They will probably be fixed in CM7.1.

You can see the changelog here: http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=crespo

Sidenote, the themes will be updated tonight to work with CM7 Stable.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] olus:
hi,

why cant i use this great awesome **** on my sgs cm7 ? ;)

i love the sublime cyan theme..

great work!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
UPDATE

All themes updated for CM7 Stable.

Uploading new files right now.

Please test and post feedback.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] FaithCry:
hey sonny,

big fan of your work; i think you should post your swiftkey and swype themes! or atleast links! :D

loving the WP7 swiftkey theme!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] nickmv:
Sonny, I noticed your Market on-sale themes. Do those add an additional theme to the theme chooser in CM7 instead of replacing the stock one?

Great work by the way.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
The market themes are for the Theme Chooser app and will work just like Cyanbread or Androidian. They have some extras features too that are not available in the traditional themes. It's all listed in the description on the market.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Good idea :), I will add a link in my signature.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] brmayhem:
Lucid working perfectly on CM7 Final.

Thank you.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] swa2k4:
Hey sonny just switched over to onyx for the new update and I love it just wish my analog clock would theme properly. It is staying green and not black and white like in your screen shots . Any idea? I tried flashing twice once with widget on screen and once off. hope we can get this to work I love pure black on the led!

Sent from my Nexus S running NSCollab 1.0.18 (CM7 Stable, Netarchy 1.3.0.2 w/ UD Launcher)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
The clock is from the market version of Onyx. Sorry about that, I will remove those screenshots.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] pippi80:
hi, the theme vivid is fantastic, perfect .. the only downside is the phone icons and browser. You can include the colored icons that are similar to the theme? thanks
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
The icons are available in the Extras link, you have to apply them manually.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] surfer3000:
Sonny,

any idea when Vivid will be updated in the store to show green labels instead of grey on the buttons for calling eg bluetooth, mute etc
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Can't give you an exact date but I should be able to do it soon, just working on some new features to add along as well.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] pippi80:
the vivid extras, say installation aborted, whne i install it on recovery clockwork.....

i need this icon...are very beautifull...

Excuse me for my bad english
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
The icons have to be applied manually, don't flash anything from the extras folder.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] yannibmbr1:
Dialer and contacts Screen don't show

I flashed this theme on my NScollab ROM 1.0.19. Pretty much everything looks right, except for the dialer and the contacts screens. Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot that? I did try re-flashing the theme but no bueno.

Are there any potential conflicts witht he CMS7 themes chooser?

Good work on this, btw.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] peronif5:
I love the tangerine theme but I woukd love for the apos to be themed already once you flash it. I donk know how to use the.auto sign in tool :(
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] iKMZAR:
Hello.

After flashing theme, phone booting about 15 mins and nothing happen.

Is this normal?

ADD. Now, its about 30 mins ;[

Boot animation restarting every 2-4 seconds.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
You have to wipe cache and dalvik cache.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] leyvatron:
glad you got your nexus s sonny.

I agree... The touch screen on the nexus one was terrible and the trackball was beautiful but the nexus s is a much better phone.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 651stp:
hey sonny hows that usb fix coming along just checking in on any updates :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Hey, my friends are visiting me from LA, after they leave on the 6th, I will root my phone and fix everything and port all my themes over :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Rooted the phone last night :).

Working on fixing the bugs right now.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 651stp:
cant wait, uff i am in real need of some theming love!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
UPDATE

Got everything to work except the transparency in the statusbar menu background. I tried all afternoon but no luck. Will keep trying.

Please follow the instructions when flashing.

Cheers,

Sonny
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 651stp:
any way to get this working on Bionix NS1.2?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
I will try.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
UPDATE

Lucid ported to Bionix 1.2

Everything works now, including statusbar menu transparency :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 651stp:
NICE! your the best man!

btw: does the one for bionix need gapps"?

Nvm it doesnt :)

Great Theme!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] hkoutso:
Great theme!

Question on the Bionix 1.2 port: Just flash from recovery over existing Bionix 1.2 or do we wipe everything out and flash this from recovery ?

Cheers :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 651stp:
this is what i did to make it work. I rebooted into recovery, wiped partition cache and in advanced, dalvik cache. right after that i flashed the theme zip. then reboot. should work man try it! its great.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] hkoutso:
Ok got it up working! Thanx man :)

BTW awesome theme!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ikon8:
Looks good, can we get a version with stock black notification bar background? The black notification bar blends so well with the surround of the screen. I love the greyish overscroll highlighting instead of the stock yellow/orange.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Open the ROM zip in WinRAR.

Go to system/app/SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-hdpi-v4 and extract statusbar_background.9.

Put it in the same location in the Theme zip.

Flash again and done :).

Also, you will have other themes to choose from by tonight.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] ogdobber:
hey sonny nice work;)

have you had any success with a "clear" statusbar? that one has me stumped with gb
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
UPDATE

Ported 4 more themes for CM7 and Bionix 1.2.

Enjoy :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
I will try. When I had the N1 and used MicroMOD's AOSP GB build, all I had to do was make a clear image for statusbar_background.9 in SystemUI.apk. It won't work with LauncherPro though.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Protokoll:
I'm guessing that if I try and flash your theme over a clean install of one of the newer compiled ROMs (build 34+), there would be some conflicts?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
@yannibmbr1, make sure you're on the System theme in Theme Chooser. If the dialer is still missing, flash the ROM+gapps again, reboot, flash the theme again.

@peronif5, not sure what you meant. If you are talking about the app icons, they have to be applied manually.

@iKMZAR, make sure you're on the right ROM and have the right theme. These are for MoDaCo r14 and CM7 Final.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] iKMZAR:
Yes, im install cm7 final today. But im get same problem before cm7final. this was on previously nightlies and rc's of cyanogen. dunno, why this happening on my phone ;[

UPD. now i tryed MoDaCo + TANGERINE. got the same problem.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 651stp:
damn, after being on miui for a month or 2 and coming back to CM7 and your themes, i fell in love with my phone again. what was i thinking.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] SpEnTBoY:
Ok Vivid? awesome!! best theme yet for my NS ... totally donating although if you were in the US it would be more, as it stands I'm in Canada so were par :p Great work Sonny
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] AllGamer:
is it safe to use the Vivid on the CM7 final release?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] SpEnTBoY:
That's what I'm running :)
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] gaeng4665:
Hi can someone please tell me which xml files i have to edit to get my custom battery to work...?

i don't know where else to ask, and i figured since sony has done many themes he might be able to help me..

thx
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
I have attached the xmls that are needed for the 1% battery mod. Decompile your framework, add these xmls in drawable, add your 204 battery images in drawable-hdpi and recompile.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] detlef25:
Hi Sonny,

love your themes. My GF asked me to install them on her CM7 LG P500, which is mdpi. Will this work? If not, could you give me some hints what I need to change in the apks so that it would work?

Thanks!

Regards,

Kevin
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Hi Kevin, a lot of people have asked for mdpi support but it will take tremendous amounts of time and work in resizing and editing 1000s of images and coupled with the fact that I don't have a mdpi phone to test makes it non-feasible.

You are welcome to work on them if you like. Just compare the image size in the stock mdpi folders of all the apps and resize them in photoshop etc. Be careful with the .9 patches.

Cheers.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] jaivinder:
Hi Sonny,

I have tried to install the themes. I have NS with CM7 stable release. After flashing with the zip the phone boots and it keep crashing after unlocking. I have tried to install the CM7 RC 2 but after flashing with the zip the system keep looping in the boot screen.

Please help me to install the themes i m a big fan of these themes.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] gaeng4665:
Thanks a lot. Unfortunately it doesn't work. The battery is displayed only as unknown.... Do you have any idea why this happens..?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Start with a fresh install of CM7 Final + Gapps, reboot, sync, boot into recovery, wipe the caches, flash the theme, fix permissions, reboot.

Did you recompile it using apkmanager? Simply swapping the xmls in Winzip is what causes the unknown battery error.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] mrRobinson:
anyone happen to know if any of these work on nightly 42? I know they were last updated for CM7 final but that release had too many issues for me so i'm on #42 now. sometimes themes work across builds.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
You can do a nandroid and try but chances are that it won't work because they changed too many things in android_framework_base in #42. They work on #41 for sure.

Sorry could't help you much as I haven't flashed a theme in over a month :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] eraynai:
I would like to use one of your themes. I have C7 stable installed on my NS but I only have the ADWLauncher on it. I don't think this is what I need, so any assistance on how to get your theme installed would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Simply flash the theme you like in recovery, just like you did with the ROM. What kind of launcher you use is irrelevant.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] eraynai:
Ok, got I flashed the theme in recovery and fixed permissions but when I rebooted the theme, I just got into a loop of everything crashing where I constantly had to force quit. The only solution was to restore back to my previous back of CM7. Any ideas of how to solve this?!
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Try clearing cache and dalvik cache before flashing the theme. Then fix permissions. Reboot.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] eraynai:
Nope, still didn't work after all that :(
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Do a Titanium backup of your apps + settings.

Reboot into recovery.

Wipe data.

Wipe cache.

Wipe Dalvik cache.

Flash CM7 Stable

Flash Gapps.

Reboot & Sync.

Reboot into recovery.

Wipe cache.

Wipe Dalvik cache.

Flash the Theme (make sure you have the CM7 version and not the MoDaCo one).

Fix Permissions.

Reboot.

The Theme should now be installed.

Restore your user apps only via TB.

Apply theme extras if you wish.

Follow this to the T and its guaranteed to work :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] thomas suh:
What has changed in CM7.0.2?

Hello~~Sonny~

May I ask what has changed in CM7.0.2?

I remember that you mentioned about the battery life will be improved and

camera zoon will be working. . .

I am wondering they're included????

Apply them manually. Use this guide:

[Nexus S Themes and Apps] FaithCry:
hey Sonny, do the themes work for CM 7.0.2? :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Yes, they should work.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] wyild1:
Hey

So I have this theme installed on CM 7.0.2 and the new status bar tweak of compact carrier label doesn't work with the theme. I don't have a screenshot of what it should look like, but I know it was smaller than it is now before I applied your theme.

Here's a current screenshot

Uploaded with ImageShack.us
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] SpEnTBoY:
This is what it should look like with the small form factor carrier bar. I upgraded to CM 7.0.2 and took this before I flashed the theme anyway :p Still would be awesome if we could have this working in the theme as well.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
I will update when 7.1.0 is out which will be any day now based on cyanogen's tweet. Otherwise I'd have to do it all over again. Until then you will have to live with the big carrier label :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] SpEnTBoY:
seriously you want us to wait??? isn't it just a minor patch? :p just kidding man lol I'm all good waiting it's in no way hurting my phone, theme, or ROM lol still by far the best theme IMO and this is just gravy for whenever :D
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Opteronvoz:
I just updated it to CM7 1st May and I have 1 small issue: the lock screen doesn't show up anymore [I unlock my phone with my "sixth sense" which is OK to work but not OK visually!].

Any suggestion?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Androyed:
Thanks for those awesome themes! Especially lucid, which I'm running now.

edit; nevermind...

I have another question though. With ADW Launcher EX I can change the dock background. But which from the list of docks should I get from the Lucid_extras folder? I can't display them on my phone (black background in gallery app), but on my computer they all look the same.

I basically want the same dock as you have in your pictures. When I tried one, the icon spacing was totally wrong.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Use the one called Dock1. Just put the one dock on your sdcard so you can find it easily.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Self Theming guide added to the 2nd post.

Now you guys can compile my themes on your own, instead of waiting for me to update them :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] eraynai:
I want to use the frost theme and have it look just like the screenshots. I really have no clue how do it? Can anyone explain! I've flashed the theme no problem, but really don't know how to make it look like the screen shots
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
You have to apply the dock/icons and the background manually.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] eraynai:
I got the icons, it's just the dock I'm having trouble with
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
Apply it using LauncherPRO/Preferences/Appearance Settings/Docks, then use the included clear icon as the app icon for the dock apps. Then you'll see the words only as shown in the screenshots.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] surfer3000:
Green bluetooth indicator

Sonny,

again love the Vivid theme.

nay chance you can update the color on the bluetooth, mute, speaker indicator to green? instead of grey (which is difficult to see).

Big thumbs up on the themes.

You must be on the market version. I will be updating it very soon :).
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] sonnysekhon:
