GLASS THEME FOR CM9
By SpadaBoss







[NOTE: screenshots don't include transparent status bar and the screenshots of message app are old (the image for sending a message is white now, and near the name there is the number of messages that is light yellow colored)]
I like very much the transparency, so I'd like to share with you my theme!
This theme is tested and working on the amazing CM9 of arco68 RC2.
APKS MODDED AND RELATIVE FEATURES:
-framework-res.apk --> all the apps that depend from framework-res will have transparent background (like settings and clock for example)
-Contacts.apk --> transparent dialer
-Mms.apk -->transparent messages app
-SystemUI.apk(in addition with the other zip) -->transparent status bar
-Calendar.apk -->transparent calendar
-Trebuchet.apk -->transparent app drawer of the launcher
KNOWN ISSUES:
-Contacts list is not transparent for now. I will update the theme when I will fix this.
-Calendar is too dark
[When I will fix this problems, the final release of the theme will be released (if there aren't particular requests from users)]
INSTALLATION:
-go recovery and make a nandroid(the tool makes a flashable backup, but have always a nandroid ready for unespected problems)
-flash the zip (thanks to the Universal Flasher Tool by JRsoft & Intronauta)
-reboot and enjoy
[NOTE: if you don't want a feature of the theme, after downloading the zip, before flashing it, just delete the apk that you don't want from /XTRAS/system/app. Don't remove framework-res.apk or the theme won't work. Only Trebuchet.apk works without framework-res.apk]
DOWNLOADS:
Glass Theme (V5): HERE
Transparent status bar: 50% HERE(reccomended) or 100% HERE
[NOTE: the theme will work completely only if you flash it on "pure" cm9. If you have some mod installed maybe the theme won't work perfectly]

CHANGELOG(current V5):
V1: added framework-res.apk and Contacts.apk (in addition also SystemUI.apk)
V2: added Mms.apk
V3: added Calendar.apk
V4: added Trebuchet.apk (transparent app drawer)
V5: now all parts of Mms.apk are ok, in particular:
-fixed too dark "send message" image
-fixed too dark number of messages near the name
-fixed too dark text when searching a person
OTHER NOTES:
Trebuchet.apk is the only apk that for now works without framework-res.apk. So if you want only Trebuchet with transparent drawer download Glass Theme and delete all apks except Trebuchet.apk (delete framework-res too).
I hope in many feedbacks. If you like my works and you want to support me, you can buy one of my themes on google play
