Download New Skinned Lockscreen
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=207682&d=1248260883
How to Install
Unzip to wherever you like and run lockscreen.bat (needs adb properly set up with paths and such)
For linux users or people who aren't lazy enough to use a batch file, boot into recovery and push like so:
adb shell mount /dev/block/mtdblock5 /data
adb shell mount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
adb shell rm -R /data/misc/lockscreen
adb push com.htc.resources.apk /system/framework
adb push htc_wallpaper_01_lockscreen.jpg /system/etc/lockscreen/port
adb shell reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This will install my transparent lockscreen background by default. If you prefer a solid picture, just change it through the personalization menu in the normal way.
This lockscreen only works in portrait mode for now.. I'll update later tonight with landscape.

Agreed. The rounded gray area with the time looks kinda rough around the edges, and all-around pretty unpolished.

A new theme I made whilst pretty bored lol My first please bare in mind!! Hope you guys like it.
This theme was made for my Touch Diamond so some shortcuts/buttons may not function correctly depending on your phone.
This can be fixed by click-holding and correcting the target yourself.
Requirements:
- Wisbar Advance Desktop 2
- Mortscript (located at the bottom)
Instructions:
Make sure you have Wisbar Advance Desktop installed first.
Install the Simplicity.zip contents inside \Program Files\Lakeridge\Wisbar Advance Desktop\Theme folder.
followed by Simplicity Plugin.cab and Mortscript.cab.
Open WAD2 Settings, and scan for new themes.
Simple
Known Issues:
The Notifier for SMS does not clear when reading sms in the Messages Tab.
This is a scripting problem with the program and not the skin itself and thus i cannot do much about.
Feel free to tweak or edit as you wish
Donations are welcomed - Thankyou
​
Thank you very much this theme is fire.

my bad. please give me one moment to edit the cab
thankyou all
looks real simple and nice. any chance for qvga?
I assume, tht there are some files missing in the root folder of that theme after installation.
Double post sorry!
updated first thread details with installation.
Pleas report back
WAD appears to not like cab installing the theme to the target location. Manual install seems to work fine for me.

sorry about this, im not even sure whats going on. all i did was copy the themes folder over and zip it up?
i've uninstalled my WAD, uninstalled all linked items to try start new like everyone else is.
simple & clean
THANKs​
EDIT:
Dude, all your images are pointing to a folder. You need to Export the theme!!
It doesn't work for us otherwise!
BEAUTIFUL
GREAT job on the graphics
i only wish it was for qvga
Looks nice, I won't use it but you've done a great job anyway!
Another vote for a QVGA version.
problem is you didnt include the images with the theme. on your phone they are in internal storage/my documents/themes/ etc etc or somthing like that. we need atleast the images folder so we can put it in the correct place on our phone so it works like yours

[ROM][Dark Themed open eclair 1.2.1]

Hey all, I created a dark themed version of open eclair 1.2.1 baconweave.
This is a full rom so you will need to do a full wipe before flashing.
I created this by pulling some icons from Xrom and editing the classes.dex file.
I did not build this rom so thanks to the open eclair team for an excellent 2.1 rom and I would also like to thank Justanothercrowd for the icons i pulled from his rom.
As this is my first shot at themeing I only changed the framework-res.apk and services.jar. So, this is not a full theme.
If you are already running open eclair 1.2.1 an easy way to apply my changes would be to extract the framework-res.apk and services.jar from my zip and adb push them to the appropriate locations on your mobile.
I will most likely not be updating this as it suits my needs.
I made a couple other changes to this rom.
-removed gallery3d.apk
-fixed bluetooth issue when pairing both handsfree and media audio.
As always I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device....

oh this looks really sexy. cant wait to try it out O_O
EDIT: it's pretty cool. Love the Notification bar and the downloading down arrow. pretty sweet man. one question;
How did you change the notification bar? I know how to change the png's but not the whole thing to make it look black =(

Click to expand...

The only real editing I did was to change the text color to white. The rest was simply replacing the existing PNG's with the ones I pulled from justanothercrowd's Xrom dark ROM.
An easy way to see what PNG's are what is to extract them from the framework-res.apk and view them as thumbnails. I can't remember what other files I edited. When I get home I can retrace my steps and give more info later.
yeah I mean I can do that too. But most of the time when I try to make all the png's on the notification bar black, they just pop up as black squares on a white surface =/
EDIT: I think I found out how. the name of the png that changes the notification bar color is activity_title_bar.9.png right?

Ahh I see what you are saying the color of the notification background when you pull the notification bar down. Yes I believe that is the correct PNG.
EDIT: If you are trying to edit what I think you are the correct PNG would be these PNG's

wrong info he gave you. the tabs he showed you and that you are looking for are known as status_bar_item_background_normal.9, status_bar_item_background_focused.9, and status_bar_item_background_pressed.9.
the activity_title_bar.9, which he thought was the correct png, is actually where it reads the words "Ongoing" and "Notifications" which is the activity_title_bar.9
anyway, hope that helps clarify things for you guys .
Oh ok thanks man almost got everything confused lol
Beautiful,man.
I came from SuperD-dark, and this is a perfect transition
Since you've tweaked it to meet your needs, I'll take it upon myself to do some other graphical tweaks (like smoothing out the notifications graphics. Too "sharp" for my taste).

Hi,
How can I move widgets? If I long tap on them they won't move and I cant find an option "unlock widgets" as in the standart theme of throttle launcher.
hope you can help me.
Luke
Is there a way to see more of screens or videos of this in use?
Very sexy!
I definitely would leave Sense if you get this one more advanced!
I optimized the programpanel and added a notification slider at the top (like on the concept-images) already; if you'd like to work together just contact me.
---------------------------
Anybody who is interested in my updates can download the new version here or in the attachments of this post. I included an option to unlock the widgets. Haven't found another one... (Check the screenshots)
Ah theres the "unlock widgets". Thanks for the update.

I could move the widgets without problem by tapping and holding until a dotted border appears and then just drag and place them wherever you like (same page or other page).

Widget Locker No tabs.

I was wondering if someone could mod the app widget locker so that on the lockscreen it wouldn't have those ugly tabs.
Or does anyone know an app that allows widgets on a lockscreen that doesn't have the tabs?
What tabs? You mean sliders maybe?
If yes, you can move them. Just long press on them.
go to look & feel and change slider layout to no sliders.
if there are sliders on the lockscreen, just long press in between em and remove.
ok you guys kind of misunderstand me. Which is understandable.
Here is what i mean.

download the file, under minimal mods, look under drawable-hdpi, use the "jog_tab_bar" and "jog_tab" and use that to replace the ones in widgetlocker

You don't need the SPB launcher to get that theme. The 3D stuff in the middle is just that certain launcher. What you want is the notification bar theme right? I don't have it myself, as I don't use those themes, but I would suggest using the UOT kitchen and you can cook it yourself. It's pretty easy to figure out and get your own themes up and running.
http://uot.dakra.lt/
I took some time and threw together what I THINK you're looking for... it was actually quite a bit more work than I thought it would be, but I just tested this out on my Nexus S (i9020a) on the latest CM7.1 Nightly (b. 180) and it worked fine.
I'd recommend backing up your Androidian.apk just in case something goes wrong, or even a full nand backup. You'll need to push this apk to /system/app and make sure permissions are set properly.
Here's what I did to set it:
1 - Use Root Explorer (or another file manager with root access) and go to /system/app
2 - Make sure the directory is mounted as RW
3 - Rename Androidian.apk to Androidian.apk.bak
4 - Browse to where you saved the modified APK on your SDCard and Copy/Move the modified apk to /system/app
5 - Set permissions (rw-r--r--)
6 - Reboot phone.
7 - Once phone is back up, go to Theme Manager and select Androidian.apk and apply.
8 - Hope it works for you like it did for me
I really like this a LOT. I've been thinking about requesting for it too. Can I add to the request please?
@tehgeekguy - Can you modify it further to remove the horizontal dividers in lists? Especially in sms and the menu lists. Pretty much like Minimalbread and Lucid. Please?

You mind taking a screenshot of what you mean? To be honest, I don't use themes at all, but I could tweak it how you'd like if you can show me what it is you're wanting changed.
Hello, Im hoping to remove all those white lines. Especially in messaging. That horizontal divider in message list or menu items. Please see attached image.

I THINK I got what you're wanting. I attached two screenshots with what I've managed so far. This will basically remove those bars from anywhere they'd normally show up (Settings menus, Messaging app, pop up menus, etc...). The screenshots show the Settings menu and the Power menu (I clear my messages daily so nothing in Messages to show but a black window).
Unfortunately, I haven't gotten it to work in a theme yet, but I can get it working with a morph, or you can yank the files and merge them manually if you know how, it's not too difficult. I'll keep poking around the theme files and see if I can get this put into the one I uploaded earlier. The morph is NoDividers.zip (attached).
WOW! This $hi+$ AMAZING! I can't THANK YOU enough! Best thing about this morph is that I can use ANY theme without those pesky dividers! Really NEAT man!
I really recommend this to anyone who love David's MinimalBread and Sonny Sekhon's Lucid.
