Install instructions

1. Make sure you have JFv1.4x ADP1.1, RC30, RC33, ADP1.1h, RC8 or RC9 installed before you try to use this theme.
2. Download file from one of the above links.
3. Rename file to update.zip
4. Transfer file to the root catalog of your SD card.
5. Disconnect ExtUSB cable and shut phone down.
6. Press Home + Power to start the phone up in Recovery Mode/JFv1.4x.
7. Once booted into JFv1.4x press Alt + S to install.
8. When install is complete press Home + Back to reboot.
9. Cross your fingers and wait. If all goes well Android ought to be up and running my theme within a minute.

Notes: This theme has been tested on two JFv1.41/ADP1.1 phones, at least one RC30 and one RC33 G1 without any major issues, but I am NOT to be held responsible if your phone for some reason gets bricked in the process. ADP1.1h version also tested and confirmed working on one ADP1. RC8 and RC9 confirmed working.

Icons. Some of them are missing/"unskinned", I know. I left some of them out on purpose because I could not find any good icons for them and I was too sick of this theme to make my own.

If you want to improve/change this theme then by all means go ahead. There are lots of things that can be improved and if you want to have a go at it I won't mind, quite the opposite actually. Sharing is caring, right?


Special thanks goes out to doooshty and dom2684 who both helped me with beta testing and feedback and found a few bugs/errors prior to release.

Love it so far!

Can you get rid of the thumb slider dealio or perhaps steal the thumbprint icon... maybe just make it translucent?

 

[jdwme]

Looks good, I will check my icon folder at home and see if something would work

Definitely. It's on the to-do list. Not sure what I'm gonna do with it yet though, but it's definitely gonna change.

i know what walley ima be using

 

[speoples20]

Like it kind of a steampunk theme going. Looking forward toward this. What icons you gonna use?

 

[mannyb]

What icons you gonna use?

Yeah, that's the problem. I have a hard time finding icons that would fit this theme. If you stumble over an icon pack that you think would fit the theme, please let me know.

I think I have some in mind I'll send you the link.

Vintage WarOh, and a nice icon pack for this theme is sorely needed, so if you know of one that would fit this theme like a glove, then by all means let me know.

If you can figure out the source of the icons in this theme or perhaps borrow them they might fit nicely. Vintage War

Beautiful theme

I'm loving it, can't wait till its release. My ADP is going to rock this new theme with pride.

Idea for the tab:

If you've seen or played Silent Hill I'm sure you're well aware of the creature know as Pyramid Head. I think it would be awesome to take his head and make it the tab. Just a thought. Hell, it would be awesome if you could go from a cleaner theme and at a certain time have the whole thing fall apart into some nightmarish alternate theme. Long ways from that but fun to imagine, right?

Best theme preview I have seen yet.

I second that opinion. those icons are great! maybe add multiple wallpapers for the theme also? really sick of the retro-ish android's logo, bah! looks like a fat trash can with a face. getting REALLY OLD....

I'll include a wallpaper without the trashcan in my release It's a 30 second job to remove it, gotta love using layers in photoshop.

Yes I had dropped a hint to manup456 that if he was looking for a new idea I would LOVE a steampunk theme...if this one keeps going as it is, I may not have to wait


I am not a big fan of skins, however if gelaskins.com made this one available for the G1 I might have to purchase it...
