I know that there are lots of themes for the leak builds, but they don't work so well on source built roms a lot of the time. Anybody know of any themes that work on 2.2 roms built from source like jrummy's or sapphire? I was enjoying sapphire but i can't handle the ugly white notification bar and pull down so its back to Chevy's SS till there are some themes.

There was a list of known bugs on the Sapphire wiki yesterday, but it isn't there today. The very first one on the list was a bug in the framework which made a lot of themes incompatible. This is not a theme problem... this is a ROM problem, and it will be getting worked out soon enough.

Jrummy's ROM is not even a stable and released ROM. It stated very clearly in ROM Manager before the last update that it was only posted for testing and was likely to be broken.

Have some patience. Things don't magically work within 2 days of a major release. Cyanogen hasn't even released his ROM yet. Give things a couple of weeks to settle in and let the devs work out the major bugs before panicking over something trivial like themes. The world isn't going to end. ;)

I understand this. I am fine waiting, i am not being impatient at all. I was curious if anyone had found a theme that did work cause I'm sure if someone had others would like to know. I don't expect things to magically work and I understand it takes time for developers to get things working. I like the source builds, but I like to have themes. I'll use a leak build till the bugs are worked out. That is not being impatient, it is personal preference. Inpatients is going to the developers forums and asking them when they will have it ready, which i never have and never will do.
 
Everything about previous themes but the framework and service.jar will work, I'm pretty sure.

It's just the framework and service.jar files that need to be redone for the source builds.

...but then again, that makes up a lot of the work it takes to theme in the first place, lol.
