All the credit goes to "MannyB" for the original design. All I did was integrate a few of the needed files into the stock theme for use with RC33. I didnt bring everything over, just some of his main images. I also merged his Vintage World Map and Stainless Steel wallpapers into one wall that I thought was nice.

I like it but it's too close to rusty metal. may be combine rusty metal into steampunk since they are one in the same style. rusty metal is being converted into rc33 as we speak anyways. I would like to see a combo of vintage war, rusty metal, and steampunk since they are so similar. that would be a great theme! what do you think and the others? may be I am wrong? well, which ever, I am just glad to see more theme makers interested in these styles. much better style is added to our G1z with these type of themes. no offense to other theme makers but most other themes are boring or tacky.

I like them seperate, Steampunk is nowhere near Rusty Metal. the steampunk theme needs alot of work, and it will be awesome, less vintage is cool but no working RC33 yet...i'm not apposed to a hybrid, by all means, i just don't think it would mess...what do i know tho....I just went to yale for 8 years (lie, 0 years)
Mannyb's Rusty Metal is by far my favorite theme with Vintage a close second. They both have their stong points. Whats the difference between this one and the original?

OOPS! I meant JF1.42, which would now be JF1.43 since the a release was outed with a fix for the Latitude issue.
I love this theme, I have tried for the past 3 days to port it over to JF1.5ADP and the closest I got was the Android screen looping. I followed all the signing stuff, but to no avail. Maybe someone has hints or justknows how to whip up a port good and quick? I guess I can only hope the developer gets a wild hair to decide to offer up the new port? I can only hope someone does.

Hell yes! I'd love to see this on Super D 1.9! I know mannyb kinda retired from themes and I was a big supporter back in the day. I'd really like to see it resurrected. The most beautiful/cool theme EVER for Android, imo!

here is a metamorph theme i have been working on as a side project from the themes i have done with cache. this is the first time i have posted a theme on xda but not my first theme . the theme isnt compatible with the latest metamorph so only use it if you are using metamorph 1.9.4.
its is a carbon fibre based theme as i wanted to do something a bit different, unfortunately my computer has recently broke so i cant carry on with themeing until i get a new one (which i currently cant afford). so i decided to share what i have done so far. if enough people like it i will carry on developing it till i think it is complete when i get my pc sorted. if not i will just use it for personal use. so here it is...

I would call this awesome if it didn't have the labels on the bottom. The three symbols would look a ton better.

plus the Circle Battery
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=702663&highlight=circle+battery
(Both made by droidkevlar) and combined them into one theme.
All credit is due to droidkevlar for making both themes I just combined them and changed the color of the battery to match. I dont know if anyone will even like this or use it but this is my first contribution to the droid community and my first theme so I hope you like it.
I have added the screenshot below the file. Not much but It's a start. Let me know if anyone can think of any improvements.
Also note that this has only been tested on the Droid Eris so I do not know if it will work on other phones but no matter what phone you have DO A NANDROID BACKUP!!!
Disclaimer: If you brick your phone its your fault. I hate it for you but I am not responsible. You are doing this at your own risk.
Who cares if only 1 person likes it. We have another themer on board. Now get to making more, lol.
Cant wait to see a screenie.
ironically, i did this myself last week
BUT i flashed a new rom and changed my theme to incorporate a bunch of things i saw in themes/roms that i liked.
200 views?
Over 200 views and no one has any tips for me for future themes. No posotive or negative feedback on how it looks or if it works. Anything?

ive been having trouble getting any kevlar to work on my droid does rom, if a fix for incompatible rom is there that would be an awesome fix.also itd be cool to have more all around themes.i wish i knew how to... incorparation of dialer would be cool, thanks for the share tho
I love the blue theme! I downloaded Aloysius 2.0.1 v12 and added this theme. This is my first experience with rooting, and I'm loving it. Everyone has been so helpful.
Any way to get the battery percentage in the notification bar circle?
Also, since the blue is working so well, any way to get a blue message icon too? When I tap letters on the keyboard, they turn green. It would be cool to get that blue too!
Great job!
for some reason the signal bar will not change for me. Could be the ROM I'm using
does the circle battery go over the checkered bar or does it have a black square on the end?
It has a black square I will be fixing this in the next update along with some other new things I am working on.
That's what I got switched to kevlar for the time being. Thanks for the update. Looking forward to the update
Ok folks, my friend just got a hero and we were talking about why to root. I showed him several ROMs from this site and all the cool themes. We got to talking about how cool it would be if there was a STEAMPUNK themed ROM out there.
Here's the rub... I SUCK at theming.
I looked at the "buufed" rom and I like some of the style, but it's just not quite what I'm looking for. Props to the developer of that ROM because it's very thorough. This is the depth I'd like the Steampunk theme to have, but I just don't know how to do it. I've never built a ROM from the ground up, so I don't even know where to start.
Is anyone out there interested in a project like this, or could someone help me know what to do?
Thanks!

A steam punk theme would be pretty awesome
It has begun...
Ok... I have a great deal of respect for all you devs and themers out there. This is a beast. Time-consuming and not very forgiving...
I have started working on my steampunk theme. Here are some screenshots of what I've done so far. By no means is this a complete theme. I am using ZenHeroFX 2.0 by nfinitefx45 as my base. Credit to all artists/devs for their work.
I have themed the notification pull-down as well, but I don't have a screenie of that yet. Also, I themed the stock sense rosie, but (again) no screencap yet. I'm curious what y'all think...
-mb
Looks cool so far.
Wow. You're a fast learner! Here are some clear notification bar icons that I made. You can use them so that the black squares wont show up around the icons in the notification bar. Just unzip the zip file, and you'll see the folders that the icons are supposed to go into. Good luck!

This is looking really good. Here's another theme I found a while back that has some of the same elements of csrom and your current build. I've never used it, but maybe something in there will help you, or maybe this dev can help you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478570
wow! this looks ... awesome! not usually an "extreme theme" kinda guy, but this I would use!
sadly though, I am using CM6 or AOSP, so would not actually end up using it, but I will be watching this thread for S&Gs anyway. the end result should look spectacular.
if I could add one "suggestion"? Get rid of the "branding" (SteamMod in big letters on the lockscreen?), I would think ppl would rather have something less intrusive in the look. I know I would. something clean and mechanical. just a IMHO kinda suggestion, great work regardless!

No problem-o... I appreciate the suggestion. Funny thing, too... I was using some of the mods from this on my daily use, and I thought "I need to take off that lettering 'cuz it's getting on my nerves." I'm just going to use it as the splash screen when sense loads rather than on the lock screen.
I have to take a break from this for a couple of days, but hopefully I can work on it some next week. Here's where I'm going to have most of my problems... DISTRIBUTION. I can theme my own phone b/c I know what I'm editing... I just am not sure how to make it so others can use it without bricking their phone. Any ideas? I hate Metamorph... was thinking more of a flashable zip? Or maybe just a themed version of a full ROM? ??

I may be way off, but I'm a Hero user and digital scrap "designer". I have photographed and extracted some Steampunk watch parts that you are welcome to use if you like for your theme.

The DL links are right below the pics for each post. Again, if I'm way off and you think my stuff sucks, disregard this post!
I love your theme btw!

its the blue version of the red galaxy theme i have....i was planning to do it at some point, depending on how complete the original is (the red one needed A LOT of work)
ill take a look at it today or tomorrow....but it might not get done til after new years
dang...i think im taking on a lot of themes
nitsu this is exactly what i was talking about ... PM me when you finish and we'll see about some donations.. and i like the top bar not all black like that but the fading kind u should have an option to pick which ones
Its all good. Take all the time you need. It does look pretty *****in though.

I don't actually take donations,,but thanks ......my thing with donations.are they should go to either the original creator of a theme or to the.guys who really make things happen on this phone...ie kernels, roms, mods
But i did take a look at the framework yesterday...,and it needs a lot of work....it looks like many of the system images were ripped from a lighter blue theme that doesn't match the status bar really at all....and the data images are just blue ones from theme kitchen....not blue ones from themed from the original red theme
Im not saying i wont/can't due it....it just might take awhile as i can't due a lot on vacation or my wife wouldnt be to happy.
That's what's up.

ultimately i decided not to do this theme as now that aosp is out my time is kinda taken up by porting stuff to that...and really no offense to the guy who made this, but...imo it was kinda all over the place with the images it contained...it seemed they came from multiple themes and didnt match
id pretty much have to do the entire thing myself over...and probably by the time i did it, dj05 would be a distant memory or something
The project is officialy DEAD due to the lack of interest. If you would like to continue the source is on github.
A few people asked for it so download is here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7692676/android/One.apk

Pretty slick looking. A little too iPhonish for my personal taste but it looks really sharp. Like the color scheme too. Excellent work.
Love that, please keep on it

Beautiful man. I used UberMusic and would defiantly love to use this theme.
cant wait id love to use that theme
Nice Nice Nice!
Can't wait for release!
Great theme!!!
WOWWWWWW!!! That is simply beautiful. If you need help testing it on an MDPI screen, I would be more than happy to do it. This blows out any theme I've seen for UberMusic.
I don't know hor far you're going with apktool, recompiling and this hacky stuff, but if you're good with this, you might find powerAmp a better app to start with.
Basically it has all or almost all features you need, so it would be a matter of rewireing the actuall app to the new ui you want to implement with a skin.
More complicated than making an ubermusic skin, but also more rewarding.
Thing is, nobody really likes reading bytecode, I guess.
Try with the UM skin first. I'll gladly try it. +1 for testing volounteers.
MDPI HTC Hero GSM, btw.
Ah, and btw, you might wanna try apk manager.
thats dope good work bro
Really nice brother i hope test it soon now
Nice! can't wait to see this... I've been using the metro skin for the whole time, and had (cubed) before that. It would be great to see a lighter skin
Very nice, will be watching for its completion.
Any release date for this??? im actually kind of tired of the skins they have for this in the market..not a wide variety of choice yet.
Man That's awesome!
Good Job..

I think it looks "iPhonish" because the tabs are on the bottom. If people want it I will make one with tabs-on-top.

I had a look at poweramp: it would be really hard to implement this interface. Playerpro has all the elements in it that are needed for this look (minus the letter separator but that's not a biggie). Anyway I finally figured out what was wrong with recompiling. I used apkmanager. That was the problem because it's bundled with a horribly out of date version of apktool, I updated it and now it works. Beta is coming soon so watch this thread
