Hey guys! Here I am again with another high quality (not finished though) theme! There's quite a bit of stuff already done in this theme but it is far from finished yet! Hopefully you guys like this one as much as my others, and like any theme I make, this one will be updated frequently.

**NOTE** Your homescreen will NOT look exactly like mine. I use custom icons and sometimes I use ADW themes.


Known Issues:
Grey "bottom bar" on Dialer. (No one has been able to figure this out yet lol)

What is themed:
Browser
Calculator
Mms
Phone
Contacts
Desk Clock
Settings
framework-res.apk
SystemUI.apk




Install Instructions:

Download Dread Ginger v1.7
Place the theme on your sdcard
Reboot into Recovery
Wipe Cache Partition
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Flash Theme
Reboot!

Screenshots attached below!

Thanks I'm really glad you like the theme! I actually have a tutorial posted somewhere in these forums on how to make one. Trying to find it now and will PM you the link as soon as I find it!

Holy Crap man. This is awesome. And I thought it couldn't get better than the Ginger Fusion. I am such a fan of darkish themes.....Downloading/flashing....

THANKS!!!!!

Lol you're very welcome and I'm happy to make you guys happy!

I wouldn't mind seeing that tutorial if you find it. It would be fun to learn how to do something like this. Yah know if you don't mind shooting the link my way as well. :)

this is awesome! I always end up coming back to your themes lol, one reason I love them so much is because everything is custom made by you, ik it takes a LOT of time to do that, considering most of the themeing I have done is image swaps and edits and that in itself takes a lot of time.

The only thing I notice (which i am sure you do as well) is in messaging the incoming bubble is all stretched out

Otherwise, thanks for this!

Lol thanks! Just remember though that this theme isn't complete yet. I was up till 5am trying to finish it but ended up just having to go to sleep cuz I couldn't keep my eyes open anymore haha. It might not look like the best right now but it definitely will very soon. As stated in the OP there will be an update for it some time today but it might be late tonight cuz I have a busy day ahead of me.

Thanks for the kind words revo! You're absolutely right, most of the stuff I use in my themes is 100% custom. Usually the only things I use that are pre-made are the battery icons but some of them have been custom as well.

Yeah I already knew about the messaging bubble, I guess I forgot to put that in the OP though so thanks for reminding me! It will be included in the first update as well. Glad you like it man!

    If you would be so kind as to point me in the right direction, I'll give it a shot.

    --My REVO is Broken, tweaked, SC'd, and TB'd. Just awesome!
    Since I'm assuming you're on Windows.

    You'll need APK Manager http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695701

    You'll need Adb

    Then winrar or 7zip to unzip files which you should have already if not.

    The theme you want to convert

    And also the Broken out 1.1 rom to extract files from it to use as your base.

    Extract all of these to a folder then open the APK Manager folder and go to place here for modding now get the a file like Mms.apk from the theme you want to convert and place it in that.

    Now start up the .bat and if you have adb and java installed you'll get some options to choose from, type in 22(pick project) then type in the number of the .apk you want to modify so that'd be 1 if you have only 1 file in there. Now you'll be back to the same screen where you were of options to choose, type in 9(Decompile APK) Once it finishes minimize the .bat and go back to your folders and go back one and go to the projects folders. Now you'll see a folder called Mms.apk which is all the files for Mms.apk decompiled so now you can go into the folder and look at the files. Go to the res folder then hdpi, this will be where all of the pictures you see in the Mms.apk are.

    This should give you a basic understanding of how to do convert and make your own themes, If you need help you can always reply and I or somebody else will most likely help you.

    --My REVO is Broken, tweaked, SC'd, and TB'd. Just awesome!
