[CM10 Theme][HDPI/XHDPI] Crystal2 v1.3.0: Now on market (29/3/2013)

[akabadnews]

What an improvement over the old version!

I'm stuck using TNL theme from ZduneX for now, but if I ever switch CM versions I'll definitely give this one a go.

JW, how difficult is it to add transparency to menu backgrounds (a la Lucid theme by Sonny)?

My dream theme is a combination of Lucid and Flow. Keep the Holo colors/style and adding Lucid's transparency. My new pc is on it's way and I may have time to try making it myself.

Wow, this looks really nice. Great work

PS - You 4EXT Crystal theme is the only one I ever installed

Hello akabadnews,

Well although Crystal 2 has similar glass figures like the CM7 Crystal, it was re-designed from zero.

It is not difficult to add transparency, but I decided to keep the backgrounds static. I had a lot of complains on the first Crystal about the background flickering... In this one, one of my main goals, is to keep it light-weight, in order not to affect system's performance.

PS: If you feel like making a theme with your desired specs, pm me I'd be glad to share some knowledge

Wow, this looks really nice. Great work

Hello shrome99,

I am eagerly waiting madmaxx82 for the new 4EXT recovery! My Gnex is half without it!

Good theme! :silly:

 

[akabadnews]

I caved. Updated my CM nightly and installed this theme. Looks even better on the phone.

A few icon requests in bold... but rather, this is just the list of icons that are not themed in my drawer. I'm not too worried about it, if you haven't the time to make them. Consider this more an FYI.

Apex Launcher
Barcode Scanner
Citizens Bank
Flash Player
iFunny
Minimalistic Text
Minimal Reader Pro
Moon+ Reader
NSTools
OliveOfficePremium
Pandora
Play Music
Google Reader
ESPN ScoreCenter
UCCW
Google Voice
Wallbase
Weather Eye
ZArchiver

Will do!

Some points though:

Apex launcher icon (and app) are themed. Maybe I missed something in the pro version? Also I think Play Music's launcher icon, cannot be themed (it has two package names).
Expect the rest on the next update

*Edit* please also specify which version of citizens bank you need (play link?)

Hello thuglifesk,

In CM10, there is an option for centering the time, isn't there something similar in AOKP (I'm not sure because I barely used any other than CM).
If not, check this thread for a nice guide from djdarkknight96.

The lockscreen lock icon, can be themed either by a morph, or with the old traditional way (unpack framework-res.apk, change icons, repack and then push back).
I need a bit more info about what you want to do

Hey DaXmax!

I wasn't away, work just kept me busy from releasing this one
If you refer to Wifi/Battery/Signal/Bluetooth icons etc they are themed! But they follow stock design in order not to mess too much with Holo guidelines.
If you refer to the notification icons, I'm not planning on theming them, it would be too much to follow sooo many app's notifications

In AOKP, go to System Settings - ROM Control - Clock and in "Clock Style" select Center Clock.

Hello Sardo Numspa,

Would be glad to see how it turned out.
In case you need the color codes:

Light Blue #ff01b8da
Dark Blue #ff0089ae

This is amazing stuff :good:

Hello ock,

Thank you for your quick reply. Ill check out the thread you suggested. I wanted to match the lock icon color to the rest of the theme. ATM its white!

thanks. i downloaded the apk to my pc and check out one of the icons to grab the 01b8da code. thanks for the dark blue, gonna continue to mess with it.

 

[thuglifesk]

In AOKP, go to System Settings - ROM Control - Clock and in "Clock Style" select Center Clock.

Thank you for your suggestion, however, that centers the clock on status bar. Im trying to center the clock on Lock screen. See screenshot below.
