Name
DarkEsteem

Info
My first completed ported theme!
Port of DarkGinger for CM7, made by DJ DarkKnight.
This is his work, if you like it, donate to him. Not me. I have no donate link, so nyaah! :P
His website: DJDarkKnight
Will update screenshots when available.
---------------------------------------
Made using PG's Black Plague ZVD Rom, but I see no reason why it would not work on MT's Broken Out Esteem or LDrifta's #2 rom, but just know there is always that possibility.
Make a backup before installing!

Known Issues
May not completely override other themes (GingerFusion, ICK, etc) and cause some clashes. Made based on Black Plague Rom for ZVD.

How to install
Download zip to root of your SD card
- Alternatively, download to comp, and transfer to SD card)
Boot into recovery.
Make a backup (just in case)
Flash theme, and reboot.

Notes
*Only the icon was themed. Since this isn't the native android camera, I doubt the theme would've touched it at all. If I have time, I will try to get it done, but the camera isn't a priority right now.
**These apps are not in the system folder, and can be uninstalled without any root apps (TiBu, Root Explorer, etc). Update: These apps did not seem to be themed with the others, will try uninstalling and reflashing. If this does not work, I will move them to the system in next update.
For some reason, the Play Store wasn't themed as it should have been. Will look into this.


Mad props to all you theme makers and theme hporters, I couldn't imagine doing this as much as much as you guys lol
I thought I was done with the worst of it when I finished the systemui and frameworks-res, but when I got to maps, I thought I was going to die :P
Used LDrifta's LDK updater script, with some changes.

Ok, so all teh apps that would go to the data folders, do not work. They don't install, and even if moved manually using Root Explorer they aren't recognized. If anybody has any thoughts as to why this is, please let me know lol
 
What do you mean? Are you saying that all apps that are installed as Non-System apps do not work at all? Force Close? Just dont open? What?

There aren't any force closes, they just aren't flashed.
I tried moving the apk's to the data folder with Root Explorer, and the phone didn't even read it, still thought it was uninstalled.

EDIT: Just uploaded a new version with the /data apps removed, and fixed an issue where the battery icon wasn't appearing.
 
I found an issue with the theme that a lot of the others have... In the settings of certain app you cannot see the text because it is to dark... an do you have plans to further theme the dialer/contacts?

I'll see what I can do myself, that's as much as that apk was themed in the original though.

MP those menus (theyre super tiny images stock) are in the framework and called menu_background.9 and menu_background_fill_parent_width.9... Theyre super small so youd probably over look them a few times like I did ahaha
 
I dont have it, but strange thing is, i always download every theme just in case something like this happen when the file is no longer available. I willkeep looking, plus i sent a pm so hopefully he still has it.
