Welcome to my new theme. The name for now is Carbon Glass. It is a mix of Carbon Fiber, my Glass Rings and Glass Squares themes and icons. It is only available for the Galaxy Nexus.

I am currently working the Systemui and Framework for this alpha1 release. Beta will be when I think those are done. The release version will have all the apps themed (notifications and such, icons will probably only be in an icon pack).

Since it is alpha, I am not putting much yet into this page or the screens. Below is a gallery of current screen shots and a link for some CarbonGlass Wallpapers. The planned next updates are to darken the top of the status bar some before blending to the pull down and one of the popup menu images does not match my others so I will find which one that is. I will try and work an update The week of 3/18 prior to leaving for vacation on the 22nd.

The Ring, Square, Carbon Fiber or likes thereof images contained in this theme are not to be reproduced or reused to make your own theme. Please respect the artist, you will find a CC license at the bottom of this page. The rings and squares and CF pattern are all of my own designs. I know its stupid but I've had people take my themes and use images in paid apps and etc without ever asking.

Man this is some great work! Been running it for a while now since I saw it on rootzwiki. Question tho, I've been running alpha 3 on build 28 and no matter what I do, the key board stays looking like stock and not your themed keyboard.

Hmm that's odd, no one has said anything like that before. Not sure what the cause behind that is. I've themed the latinime stock keyboard and Swype.

A very successful theme :)

I have a question: How do I get on the platform, Nova Launcher icon placed under the icon? In Settings folder (platform) are no settings to be applied in this, not too user-defined

Thanks. To apply the custom folder icon like the screenshot, Go into Nova Settings:
  1. Desktop
  2. Folder Preview -> Pan
  3. Folder Background -> Custom
  4. Choose the icon from the OP

I personally think that Fan looks best with the Platform but that's all subjective.

Thank you, but I've already tried. Despite this, the folder background is not a platform, but remains unchanged.

I've saved the custom icon png under DCIM. Is that the wrong location and therefore can not be used?

I personally like the best platform and also would also like to use.

Were you able to change it to one of the built in options like their platform?

I have it in my download folder, I dint see why the folder should matter though, but that is just where I stick all my random images for icons and such.

    The vending from the theme isn't signed, that's why it uninstalls. I'm away from my PC for an hour, so can't upload til then. Not sure why I didn't have this issue when I flashed it.

    thanks :)

    Edit: here is Vending fixed

    Did the theme (Maguro) for the B32 and flashed UI system was completed and over again. The soft keys and the status bar is no longer published. Had to import finally back up, because even after flashing the previous themes, the softkeys and the status bar no longer appeared and UI system was stopped again and again.

    The systemui stopping is a known bug with aokp b32, not this theme specifically. Zaphod has already fixed it for b33 and a workaround for b32 is published in the aokp section at rootzwiki.
