Guess what guys? I brought back Dusk! Well, sort of... anyways.

The problem with the old Dusk icons (and the only good enough excuse I had to ignore Dusk port requests for the Evo LTE) is that they are tiny, 36x36! And then the Droid DNA and HTC One come along with their super hi-res screens, making a simple port hopeless. Remaking the icons from scratch became the only option. But guess what...ain't nobody got time to remake all those icons. But then one day I got bored and bla bla bla... I remade the original Dusk background PSD lol. After that I sort of passed it around, hoping someone would remake the icons for me, but no...I had to do it. So I found the time and did it haha.

Here's the thing though—I don't have this device, and I don't really plan on getting one soon. HTC devices are weird with theme injectors (even the OG one by effdee and firerat), so when I tried making a universal Dusk flasher zip for this phone, it utterly failed. So I figured, hey, if people want the Dusk icons as bad as I do, then they won't mind adding to their roms themselves. So without further ado, I present to you a giant zip with every dusk icon personally remade by me. I even added some. But the zip doesn't flash. I took the liberty to add THE EXACT APK NAMES AND IMAGE LOCATIONS WITHIN THE APKS for you guys, so be greatful lol.

And since I'm as open-source as a gfx designer can possibly be, here's the Dusk PSD: http://d-h.st/8Ei

Feel free to make your own icons with it. Here's a quick tip from me re: stock Dusk icons (stock icons on the dusk background): White color overlay set to 91% opacity, default Gradient overlay set to 100% opacity.

Devs, themers, modders, feel free to include these icons in your work. I'd prefer, if you do decide to use them, for you to credit me. But if you don't, no worries, I won't rant. That's on you. However, if you use my icons and actually claim them as your own, you're a douchebag.

That being said, enjoy the icons! :D

Doesn't seem to flash for me either :confused:

Think I'm gonna try either reading the OP or looking inside the zip, hopefully then as I can find out as to why it isn't working...

:p all in good fun

Edit: please download new zip, fixed for new Gmail update. ;) (fixed Zip name, lol)

Thanks man! I'm sure people will appreciate it. As for the gmail icon, try looking inside the gmail app, I didn't really give it a thorough look

    Best theme ever!

    Thanks for all of your time invested, we hardcore Dusk fans appreciate it. Also, your willingness to share this in such a raw form is extraordinary. Good work man.

    :good:

    I remember Dusk icons having a gloss black and a deep green. Are these like that or are they black and white?

    via sexy phONE.
    These are bilbobryan style, I think you are thinking of GRZGORZ10 style. Both are great, but these are more on the glossy grayscale side. There is a screenshot in the 5th or 6th post I think.

    Also, I FINISHED THE GUIDE! A lot of effort went into it (about half an hour o_O !!) so I hope you guys find it helpful.
