Default [THEME][JUNE 4][HOWTO] { Full ICS } - Removed all old GB styles - AOKP 38

Hey guys,
I was fairly disappointed by the amount of gingerbread styling left over using apps that havent been designed to use the new holo theme.

I have taken it upon myself to remove the default gingerbread styling and move to the holo resources.

This fix is all xml and uses no additional images.
To incorporate I believe you can just move over the styles.xml to framework-res.apk/values/styles.xml

Anyone using this theme please provide feedback since there may be buggy or incorrectly themed instances throughout.

You can use this with themes from the aokp theme chooser

AOKP 31 only - http://www.mediafire.com/?d7piq7ymsb4zyiq

The theme version is only available for aokp 31 but I hope other themers will grab my styles.xml and use it in their theme.
Thanks...I'll use this in my theme too...credits to you...does this just fix the orange to blue? I did that already.

No, it adds most holo theme elements such as menus, progress circles, scrollbars, etc.

BlackDino,
Can you merge this fix to your FULL ICS?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1588613

It's a COLOR Gradient Fix in System Settings for ICS because the Color Gradient there is not good and heavily jagged.

Thanks a lot. LOL.

Thanks so much for this
I ported styles.xml to my mod for Captivate and of course gave you credit!

Wow. Looks beautiful. At last ICS seems complete. Unfortunately changing the list popups background to dark sometimes causes letter color issues. For example in Tapatalk. But it is not a big problem for me. Big thanks for this mod.

ah, thanks man.
Ill fix the progress bar on the next version.

As for any weird colors on menus I can't really fix them.
This is from app developers using inline styles and not following the android style guide lines
