Yeah, pleading in the thread for the author to make it less transparent.
Now, I wonder... could it be given a blurry background?

I am able to exchange "com_android_systemui.xml" with the one from Cyanbread to fix the pulldown problems, but it changes the pulldown to a stock look. I am not sure what looks better, with the transparency and grey block on the top left, or the stock look. I did change the pulldown background to something less transparent (75%) and it looks much better than fully transparent. In order to fix the pulldown correctly one would have to smali the xml and mod it correctly to fit the mdpi sizes.
To see the less transparent background you can set to another theme, uninstall Honeybread, then install the one I have attached, set it as your theme and reboot.

Thanks man! Yet some questions... can I use this xml with the V1? I like that version more. And, it's possible to give it a different name in order to try it next to the original Honeybread? And I guess it has to be signed for it to work, can you gimme a quick explanation in how that works?

Ill attach the file you need to drop into the /res/drawable-hdpi folder using your archive program. And yes then it needs to be re-signed. The name is compiled in so you have to uninstall/re-install to get the modded version. This PNG file will darken the pulldown background, but leave the pulldown messed up a bit because it is set for hdpi only.
To get the stock notification pulldown you need to replace the /res/xml/com_android_systemui.xml with the one from Cyanbread.apk, but this will give you a totally stock look.
edit: I zipped up the background PNG because it gets displayed on the post, and does not download correctly.
I think this is a pretty incredible theme, even with the little errors and the fact it's HDPI. It's still beyond sick.

[OLD]Dont dig this up any more. DELETED

Links are down and I had an os crash so the theme doesn't exist anymore. Sorry, I'm working on something right now though.
I highly recommend nitros honeycomb.
Nice work. It looks pretty awesome. I for one love the honeycomb battery and would like that as an option. That's easy to add in on your own though too.

To be honest I thought the honey comb battery clashed worse. I'll look into changing it though, oh and I'll be including a honeycomb battery option very soon possibly within the hour.

very nice theme...just noticed the shutdown animation...really cool....thanks
couple of notes:
1. the honey lock REPLACES the puzzle lock.
2. is there any way of adding the vibrate option to the honey lock screen? (ok thats more of a question)
3. best lock screen ever.
Yes it replaces the puzzle lock, it has the same functionality as the puzzle, it opens to messages, missed calls, and voice mails I believe. Sorry I can't add a vibrate option. That would be very extensive and I'm not sure I could even do it. Sorry bout that.

Very nice Thanks!
Thanks. This is really awesome. Do you have any idea what the hex color code is for the green date? I would love to match my minimalistic text widget to that color.
Not sure but I would bet the color code is in the xml layout file if you haven't already found it.

Mi locker (MIUI rom has an app for its lockscreen)

When you select a lock theme there is an option below to include the wallpaper or not. You can unselect it if you want your default homescreen wallpaper.
Also note thats its only hdpi. Can someone port it to mdpi? I wonder why miui make it to hdpi devices knowing most hdpi device can use miui not with mdpi devices.

That's way cool. I can't thank you enough for this. Been missing these ever since I moved to CM7 (damn MIUI kept corrupting my sd during restarts)
Does it support widgets and apps on lockscreen?
Some themes work on my mdpi phone- the very first one and the wp7 default ones work... trying to find others now.
I can't seem to get any of the themes from the MIUI lockscreen thread on here to work, just goes to homescreen with a notification bar which doesn't work.
Anyone else had better luck?
