UPDATE! Just updated the theme with a 2.6.1 version.
UPDATE NUMERO DOS: The problem where the menu text is invisible has been now fixed. This is not tested but there is a 99% percent chance it should have fixed the bug.
Update #3! All bugs fixed!!!!!!!!! w00t w00t w00t 99.99% chance of working, it is recommended to do a fresh install because I cahnged a whole buncha stuff that you cannot see but it should work without a fresh install.
Jesus, another update? here we go again.
I changed a few colors and changed the talk apk to the one tbaker077 made (which looks cool).
Another update! Fixed the gmail problem!

Thanks,
ljbaumer


***This is not my theme, I ported it over from the nexus one***

Elegant Steel is built for the D2 and the DX at the moment. For the D2 it is on fission 2.6.1 and 2.5.7 and on the Dx it is for liberty 1.1 and fission 2.5.7.


Disclamer: I DO NOT take any responsibility for anything that happens to you or your phone before or after you flash this theme. By rooting your phone you probably have already voided your warranty so you are on your own. If you have any problems I will try and help you but I cannot promise anything.

While this build is heavily optimized, it is also capable of pushing your phone much harder. I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or the current economic crisis. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this theme before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modificiations, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

Install Instructions:

1) Boot into recovery
2)Make sure your system is mounted under mounts and storage
3)Install the .zip from your SDcard
4)Reboot your phone
5)follow me on twitter ;) http://twitter.com/#!/ljbaumer99
6)TADA!

Almost everything in this theme is at modded at least a bit from widgets to the user interfaces of apps.
*All I did in this theme is port it over and make a bunch of modifications so it will work with fission and the DROID2*

CREDITS:
Jedispotty: for making the original theme
Sonnysekhon: helping out a bunch on all of my other projects that haven't been released yet.
jj702561: for helping me out a lot
Theimpaler747: for making the themed market which looks really cool in my opinion
*if I forgot anyone please just PM me and I will make sure to include you*

This theme is not finished yet and is sort of still in beta format. I am going to update it according to when fission and/or the original theme is updated. Also I will come out with updates if there are any bugs that are needed to be fixed.

Another note: This is the first theme I have ever released to the public so please excuse me if there are any bugs and just post the bug in the thread and I will try and fix it.

I am going to stop updating this theme because at this point there are no bugs left and the developer of the original theme probably wont be updating his theme any time soon either. If anybody wants something changed in the theme just tell me and I will see if I can include an update for you.

I like the look of this theme, but can you make the battery icon a bit more gingerbread like as it sometime a bit hard to tell in sunlight where my battery is at. Thank you.

Not many people like this theme (not very many comments) so I have been sort of reluctant to keep updating it or coming out wit mods lately. If more people like it I will come out with more modifications.

How about a pink one for the ladies, and for V-day coming up, and a the color scheme of the Lucid(the latest one for the DX) if that isn't too much work?

I can probably manage a pink one and I may end up just porting lucid over anyways, I am taking a break from theming for 5 days because I am extremely busy but I will see what I can do about a pink one

That would be appreciated. Maybe when you have the time, you can do a cross mix of this and the Lucid theme(DX one again). Thanks.

I think I will start working on the pink one in 3 days or so and I don't think I am going to make a mix of these 2 themes but I will port lucid over in the next 2 weeks or so.

Thanks,

    Yeah I can do that. I am going to just keep my themes at 2.5.7 for today because I have like 10 minutes to be on the computer and do development so I am just going to upload the theme and update my themes tomorrow. Sorry I can't update today.

    Thanks,
    ljbaumer

    Can you keep the pink theme for 2.5.7 and make it along side the 2.6? Because I am still using 2.5.7, but 2.6.x is out now and just waiting to see what some of the changes are.

    Thanks! I really appreciate comments like this* hint* *hint*

    Just wanted to say I installed this theme and it looks great. Nice work.

    I have no idea why it wouldn't work in some apps and would work in others....

    I am going to update the pink ones once the super bowl is over ;)

    I will look through the framework-res.apk one more time on elegant steel while I am updating the pink ones to make sure all of the menu backgrounds are black/transparent but I am pretty sure I changed all of the images.

    That and the lock screen. Same for pink but with the steel boot screen, and the adjustment my gurl did to the color. I give the OP a bottoms up!


    What do you want changed on the lockscreen?!? I think the lockscreen looks great lol. I changed the pink steel bootscreen already and I will change the icons today I hope. The vibrancy thing will come out sometime this week and if I like the way it looks I will add it to the elegant steel theme ;)

    Also I am not having any problems at all with the market force closing on elegant steel. I would recommend a fresh flash where you wipe everything and then flash elegant steel straight over fission 2.6.1

    Thanks,

    P.S. check out my google wave thread I posted the link to in one of my other posts :D
