I want that phone apk!! I've been looking for one with out that ugly green fadeaway for so long. Looks like its gonna be a kickass theme.

cd's or tapes?
[Epic 4G Themes] asiangolfer76:
Looks pretty sweet to me. About how many icons will it have?
[Epic 4G Themes] ggrip:
Nice. Looking forward to trying it when it's done.
[Epic 4G Themes] TheBurgh:
Looks real good.
[Epic 4G Themes] Sh0wNuF:
Would definitely be interested in trying this out
[Epic 4G Themes] cjobanion:
This looks smooth! I would definitely give this a try!
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
I do not understand the question of "About how many icons will it have." ???

I will be posting the files in sections so you can take as much or as little that you want.
[Epic 4G Themes] formula84:
Looks great man, keep up the awesome work.
[Epic 4G Themes] freddyepic4g:
beautiful!

Heck yea, id give it a run, sweet graphics... Always been a fan of carbon, black and dark themes! Nice.
[Epic 4G Themes] asj2583:
Just wondering if the dialer once in a call be themed since I see the phone.apk is themed. Most themes theme the dialer but once in a call the phone.apk and dialer are left untouched. Looks great btw can't wait for it and please make it ext4 and cw3 compatible for us user that have those mods.
[Epic 4G Themes] lazydazed:
Yes please! Interested!
[Epic 4G Themes] tony45x220:
Ohh yea keep workin on this and keep us posted on a release date...don't mean to be pushy but will you be including any black themed applications like the market, Gmail, Messaging, Email, etc?

sent from my rooted, suited & booted Epic 4G know dat
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Yes phone is themed, still to work on contacts to change some of the pale blues images. What you is what you get for the dialer.

I haven't got the point of thinking about the inverted apps but I think will include in the final release.

I wanted to get a feel from users before I spend more than 6 hours already invested. So thanks to everyone for giving your feedback. It takes both sides to make a rom/theme better.
[Epic 4G Themes] asj2583:
Btw on what rom/s will this work on or are you releasing as a rom and not a theme or both a rom and seperate theme to install on other roms.
[Epic 4G Themes] decalex:
I've got a nice blacked out version of gmail with Semi-transparency in the email listing, if interested. (semi-transparency just controlled by a png.)

hehe - banSANi, sounds very italiano.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Sure I love anything transparent or semi-transparent.
[Epic 4G Themes] decalex:
Got it posted here- feel free to grab it/ mod it, etc.

[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Thanks, I'm sure I will do some sort of modding to it. Can't live with anything looking stock.:D
[Epic 4G Themes] yogi2010:
I was curious if anyone has tried this theme with midNIGHT 4.2, or knows if it would work? thx
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
midNight was using the Bonsani stock rom as his base. Ask him if that is true, if so then yes the theme will work.
[Epic 4G Themes] yogi2010:
Yes, I believe that is the case about his base rom. I figured i'd go ahead and test it out, and it sorta worked, but contacts force closed when trying to open it, and nothing could be downloaded from the market. So it kind of ran, but some things didn't work.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
I used this theme on the Bonsani 3.0.1 rom without any FC's on any program. If you are willing try flashing the theme a second time. Maybe a bad flash the first time. Or maybe midnight has not converted to the newer apk's used in the noicq roms. Don't know if that statement is true or not just another thought.

And market place is another issue that I don't understand why the theme would affect it not working. But the market sometimes works and other times it doesn't.

Anyway if you find anything please let me know.
[Epic 4G Themes] yogi2010:
ah ok, thanks for the ideas.... I will let you know if I try it again. I thought about trying to swap out the contacts apk with another one? and yeah, not sure why the market would force close when downloading something. perhaps I'll do some further testing later on, and at least try another flash and see what happens. thx!
[Epic 4G Themes] rjmjr69:
SICK I love it... Great work man keep it up
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Thanks to one of my biggest fans!:)
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Bump to get this back to the front page. Works on the ACS 1.0.2 release.
[Epic 4G Themes] ZHkilla:
Jstine this is a very clean theme bud. I decided to try it out today and its probably the nicest black theme out there bro. Great job
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Coming from you that one big +, thanks you. And thanks for the ACS Logo, a beautiful job.
[Epic 4G Themes] ZHkilla:
No prob jstine. I have had this on the phone for most of the day, and I must say one thing that would be great is a app icon pack since those launcher pro icons you made are so sexy, I would love to be able to replace the other popular apps I use on my homescreens with your icons for their replacement. Hats off again bro on a excellent theme that will definitely stay on the sdcard for a flash when not in the middle of making them.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Will make a pack for LPro and TW3 + a blank for roll your own. Will tmorrow or the next day. Next the 1st page for the posting in 1 or 2 days.
[Epic 4G Themes] mooney101:
What roms is this compatible with?

I'm sorry I'm still new to android and either the info isn't here or I'm just not seeing it. But what roms is this theme compatible with? Is it compatible with Elite Series III Thank You
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
This theme is for the Sprint Epic EB13 release. The Elite Series III is for the EVO, what phone do you have? If it's EVO, then one of the guys in Evo Rom section did port this to King Series roms.
[Epic 4G Themes] mooney101:
Evo. That's my mind not working right. I do that all the time with epic stuff. I see epic and think I see Evo. lol I love this theme and a similar version of it is

with the rom Kings Unleashed I.m just not real fond of the rom itself. To much black in the rom but love the alien icons in the top bar. So I'm trying to find an alternative that still has the alien theme :) Thank You
[Epic 4G Themes] MaxGadgetGuy:
SRF 1.1

Can't wait to see this work on the SRF 1.1 recently released! :D
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
I have tested this theme with the new ACS 1.1.0 rom and everything appears to be working well. No FC's with any of the main components, MMS, Phone, Contact and several apps. Shouldn't be problem but if there is just let me know.

Working on framework to have 205 battery icons and reboot option menu working on all roms. Thanks for your support.:)
[Epic 4G Themes] formula84:
Thanks jstine, looking forward to the blue version of the red theme or blue glass...also the themed Swype, have you fixed the bottom row keys off alignment that is present in Mystery's Version?

Just as a note: 20428846d0d6.update-SPH-D700_EB13ToEC05.zip

Is the update zip off google servers, when you look in the zip you can see that it patches alot of files, many are small but the Phone, Contacts, Browser, Email, TW Calendar, Music Player seems to be a larger patch than all the rest. While the EB13 themed APKs will work as you tested, wonder what was changed in the new APKs.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Thanks for the heads up on the update. For everyone, do not try to use this update. It contains many obex'd file and need to be incorporated into the rom after removing or deobexing the file. I'm going to wait for K0nane to do the update.
[Epic 4G Themes] MaxGadgetGuy:
Thanks for the heads-up - will certainly wait for the go ahead to update for use with EC05/SRF 1.1
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
4/6/11 Update Black Alien to Version 1.3.4 EC05 Ext4
[Epic 4G Themes] SwimDrewid:
Absolutely amazing work.

Thank you

Sent from my fully armed and operational epic battle station
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Your are welcome!
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
4/7/11 Updated rom again, sorry added a few more things. Look at the pictures to see what has changed.
[Epic 4G Themes] formula84:
Nice, gonna change up from blue midnight for today and test drive this...as always great job and thank you for your continued genius on themes.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
If you wait 30 mins to an hour I will have some updates for Blue Midnight.
[Epic 4G Themes] SwimDrewid:
Bee Tee Dubs, theme works beautifully on Bonsai 4.0.1 (Nice to have my clock back on the stat bar :-D). Reboot is still on the power off menu.

Reply again, so I can "Thanks" you again :-D
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Yes it will be as long as you do not install the ACS or Bonsani ASOP lock screen mod.
[Epic 4G Themes] formula84:
Very cool thanks man! hey is the new TB gonna have an all blue/silver option?
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
For this theme or Blue Midnight?

I am working on a TB icon theme that will not have any frame around the icon. 1 will be blue and 1 with grey,black & white icons. The last can work with any theme since it will be neutral.
[Epic 4G Themes] formula84:
I was talking about BM, just knew you were working on the new TB so thats why I asked. I like Blue TB you put out for Blue Midnight, looking forward to your next set thanks.
[Epic 4G Themes] yogi2010:
confirmed, this theme works great on Bonsai 4.0.1, puts the clock back on notifications bar. love the themed Launcher Pro too...... great work! :D
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Thanks for the post.

Anybody have new suggestion for changes in this and my other 3 themes?
[Epic 4G Themes] yogi2010:
you're welcome, and I clicked 'thanks' for ya a few posts back. no real suggestions, as I like it a lot as is! if I had to suggest something, maybe make it so that when charging, the lighning bolt doesn't flash on top of the % number, which makes it hard to read the number? very small thing tho. I'll report back with any other suggestons. basically this theme makes the Epic really fun for me to use. more thanks coming when I get back to computer and off Tapatalk, heehee.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
No problem bro, just thanks for the comment.

Question! Would all like to see a dark purple and theme?
[Epic 4G Themes] formula84:
You know what my request would be right? Optional TB, Blue and Silver based icons (no green, red, yellow etc.) The Icons you did for the blue midnight would look great, and to keep up with the changes, invert the 3g and 1x arrows as you have with this version as well as make no data 3g larger like this one...
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
A FLY IN ANIMATION!! please lol its my favorite.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Please tell what theme has this form of screen animation. There are several available out there.
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
Ummm I was using the honeycomb fushion from amosher that has it. He has it as an add on and you just flash it. And before I used to have novas rom and he had the fly in windows and a couple other I can't think of off the top of my head.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
I kind of stayed away from the animated screens since you don't know who will like it or not. I know that several other member post both versions. But with me having several themes posted it gets hard to keep them updated. Let me see what it takes to do this as an add-on.
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
ok thank you so much. :)
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Ok I tried the fly in animation, did not like it as much as another one that I have. Future releases I am going to include the animation in all released themes with a program that will allow the user to turn animation off. Me, I like the effect. Besides I getting lazy and don't feel like tracking all the different themes.
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
thats awesome. cant wait to see it. thanks for all the work you do.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Added the theme with animation in the 1st post. I also included the program SpareParts to change the speed of the animation. Please give it a try and tell what you think..

After 3.5 hours sleep yesterday before work. My brain is now certified KFC'd.
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
thank you so much. ill try it in a few minutes!
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
hmmmm i couldnt get it to work.... ill try it again in a minute

ya it didnt workkk. =/
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Sorry I fell asleep watching a show. Let me know if it works. thanks

If this doesn't work I will put the fly in version in the framework

Edit: maybe I needed sleep so bad, maybe the phone was moving and not the screens. LMAO:o
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
haha its ok. i think you should try and make just an update script instead of the whole rom update. maybe it would be easier?

did you put up a diff download?
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
you should prob get some sleep lol you dont have to do all this right now. its not that big a deall
[Epic 4G Themes] SwimDrewid:
I just noticed that some sub menus to 3rd-party apps (like Touchdown) use a white background so the white menu text appears invisible.

(i'm doubting this is possible..., but) Is there any way to force all menus/sub-menus to be black?

Other than that bit - what a great theme!

Now catch some Zzzzzs
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
yea thats the only thing i noticed. that and update available icon and the item downloaded icon for the market and for other things you download. And the screen comes back on for a second after you lock it.. tw lock screen and the aosp one.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
1. On the dark menu (Black or Blue Theme) almost all apps will use what is set in the framework-res.apk. After trying the menu on every app that I use 99% used the framework-res .png for the menu background with white letters. Only 1 program used it own style menu and that was semi-transparent with white letters. So you guys tell me if you want the white menu back. It's no big deal for me since I will keep the dark menu in what theme I am using. I will post the white if that's what you want.

2. "And the screen comes back on for a second after you lock it. tw lock screen and the aosp one." I don't see this problem, can you please explain it more. Sometimes if a program that is running that is causing the problem. Maybe I just don't understand the problem. In order to get the 205 battery icons and have the ACS reboot to show correct or at all. I used a special modified android.policy.jar. If you have dl'd and installed one of ASOP lockscreen, then it might be that. Depending on which one you used, it could have the charge icon only with a zero flashing, reboot menu missing or a charge icon #1.
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
the menu is fine. i put my own gmail app in the theme and thats the only one that does it.

as for the screen thing i dont know. it was really weird, it would only do it bout half the time.

about the only other thing ive noticed is the battery full icon came back on, but i think this is rom related?

what about the icons i was talking about?
[Epic 4G Themes] MysteryEmotionz:
Jstine what did you do the android.policy.jar. The one I did for sfr both tw and aosp are highly modified by me and is recommend to use on the sfr rom. That is also where the code for reboot is done besides the changes to framework-res.apk.

the battery mod is only done in framework-res.apk
[Epic 4G Themes] MysteryEmotionz:
What rom are you running?
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Yes, just saw your post last night with pic. I don't have much time for now but I have some questions I need ask you. Will pm later tonight or next week. Thanks for the heads up!
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Is the full battery silver and stays there without changing?
[Epic 4G Themes] MysteryEmotionz:
Just pm me your gtalk. It makes **** easier
[Epic 4G Themes] redram38:
I love this theme as well as your blue theme. Was hoping you could update Launcher Pro to the newest version. They have added a Gmail widget I would like to use and it won't let me update from the market.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Can do, I read the website about the new changes. I guess I missed the part abouting Gmail widget. Coming soon
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
I'm running the midnight rom 5 with journaling just because I got sick of

the data corruption from the bad shutdowns..

And the battery full I'm betting is from the aosp lockscreen. I have seen so much crap from that lol it causes my random reboots too on midnight, like after I miss a call and turn the screen off it reboots.. so I deleted it and put the stock one back on and all is well. I think it might have solved the pop up issue ill check in one min..

Yea It works now. It flashes a full then a blue battery then back to full.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Understand, that's why I have big red warning in op. I'm working on an Android.Policy that will let you have it all. ASOP Lockscreen, 205 battery + reboot screen. Adding the ACS/Bonsani ASOP lockscreen will cause problems. For me having the 205 battery icons was needed more than anything else.

Thanks you for giving feedback. A thanks on the way!
[Epic 4G Themes] redram38:
Thanks, awesome work.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Updated Black Alien to 1.3.6

Menu icons for MMS,Contacts & Phone inverted to work with Black Menu.

Added Flyin animation.

Added Black Launcher Pro 8.4.1
[Epic 4G Themes] socalsfinest93:
Thanks for the update very nice theme...but when I try to flash the boot screen it says its amend not edify
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Thanks for letting me know, I did not check the zip, will fix now.

Edit: Zip file fix to work with CWM3 @ 18:55 hrs CMT
[Epic 4G Themes] Custodian:
Tight ass theme pahtna!.... Could I add the black facebook apk to this? Or does it have to be coded and all that other jazz for it to be compatible with this
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Yes you can, depending on what one use. 1.5.1 from M.E. works the best.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Fixed Submenus showing white background with white letters.

Please let me know if you see any thing else not working correct, thanks to all!
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
hhah the animations still arent working on mine.. but its not a big deal. the submenus look awesome.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
1. What custom rom are you using?

2. Check under Settings, Display, Animation and make sure All animations checked.

3. Also try downloading this attachment of SpareParts and install the normal of installing app. Do not try installing by flashing. Run the program and check transition speed is set to normal for fast.
[Epic 4G Themes] jsredlineracer:
Hi farely new to this., and would like to start off by saying I love your work, and I'm currently using ur new Frozen ROM. I tried downloading the files from my epic and the boot screen worked like a charm. However the actual theme won't work everytime I try to go into clockwork and try to install zip it tells me it failed and next to the file it says bad. Am I. Doing something wrong or am I a moron trying to install a theme when its not compatible. Thanks in advance
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Maybe you just got a bad download, it happens. Try downloading again and flashing again. You must have CWM 3 installed and not 2.5 or 2.6 for this to work. I don't think upload is bad or someone else would have posted a comment.

Not sure what program you use for zip files. But open the Balck_Alien.zip with whatever program you use. You will see a test icon/button, hit it and see if the file is corrupt. If it is then download again.
[Epic 4G Themes] ksmullins88:
im using midnight 5.2 with journaling

checked the animations settings and theyre ok. and i already use spare parts, the animations are set to fast, same as the transitions.
[Epic 4G Themes] jsredlineracer:
I tried a couple times but it never worked. I just extracted the files and I didn't see anything. There was nothing inside the folder. I will give it a go on my computer when I ge home. Thanks for the quick reply.

Just got on laptop and everything went super smooth looks great thanks
[Epic 4G Themes] droid newb:
Love the look of this theme!

Followed the instructions even though I thought it was odd that there was no direction to wipe cache or dalvik.

I'm having one issue and hopefully someone can help me with that issue...the stock email app keeps force closing on me. Any ideas what would be causing that?

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
I don't use the stock email but will check on it later with my own accounts.
[Epic 4G Themes] droid newb:
Thank you!

I hate the gmail interface but love the stock email interface.

Hey, I just thought of something...I'm running midNIGHT ROM 5.2 with Fascinate email...could that be the issue?

If so, how do I go back to the EC05 stock email app?
[Epic 4G Themes] droid newb:
Gallery is force closing too.

Should I try wiping cache & dalvik then reflashing?
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
You have more going on with your phone than my theme would have caused. Maybe you had a shut down that corrupted the rom. If it was me, I would do a total wipe and then re-install the rom add my apps and then do a backup. Then start again. The only time that I get FC's now is when I had to pull the battery do a bad flash of a theme I was testing. I now use my backup of the rom which takes me back to RFS system. So no more corrupt data even if I pull the battery.
[Epic 4G Themes] droid newb:
Had a feeling you might say something like that. :( I think I'm going to live with it for now since there are ways around the issues. When midNIGHT is updated to a newer version again I'll give that a shot. If that works then great, but if it doesn't I have to start over again anyway.

And I'll definitely go with the "journaling on" version. ;)

Thanks for your responses though, and I really do like the looks of this theme!
[Epic 4G Themes] Custodian:
The boot animation is str8	..your name just destroys it thou.
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
Sorry you don't like my name. Someone else did this for me and I haven't had time to change the name to Black Alien. But it's coming along some more changes to the theme.
[Epic 4G Themes] droid newb:
I started over from scratch. Gallery works now but stock email still force closes. I can live with it though. I love the look of this ROM...thank you so much for your work!
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
I working on it. having problems with account and it's setting.
[Epic 4G Themes] droid newb:
Ok. Thanks for the update. I can use the gmail app so it's not a deal breaker for me. :)
[Epic 4G Themes] skyward01:
Love this theme, thanks for all the hard work.

[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
I finally got the correct setting for sbcglobal.net email accounts. Had no problem with email downloading or send.

Question, does you icon for email is it white with a black @ ? Or is white & blue @.
[Epic 4G Themes] gunnermike:
do you know why this is becoming a popular theme on xda? because its freakin awsome!!!
[Epic 4G Themes] yooper:
I don't have an Epic but do have a Fascinate. I wanted to pop in real quick to extend a big thank you for your time and efforts as your work and good graces gave gunnermike the opportunity to bring your theme to the Fascinate.

Thanks again and Much appreciated!!

[Epic 4G Themes] sandman512:
Great theme. Thanks!

PS: Is this theme the same as MIDNIGHT BLUE(sizing). THANKS!
[Epic 4G Themes] timberwolf671:
If mean the font, then yes. And to everthing else.
