Thumbs up X1 - Free Theme by jaxjon

Theme name:x1
Theme author: jaxjon

Theme Cost: FREE
Latest Build Date:12/07/09

x1-Blue - OTA

x1-Blue WB - OTA

x1-Blue WB & MB - OTA

I created this theme with the help of some fellow Crackberry users in an open source thread that now seems to be dead, as well as being inspired by Noble from Elecite. As not many viewed that thread I am posting this to allow those who didn't to access it.

Features:

clean and easily readable home screen
10 icon scaling dock (use + or - to show/hide)
10 item hidden today (access by pressing calendar button)
hidden buttons for profile, media, clock, mail, manage connections, apps screen, options, contacts, Quicklaunch (in addition to the calendar button)
bouncing icons in dock
fully skinned icons
blue or white color background for messages, contacts, call log
easily readable battery meter/custom fan signal meter
all buttons on home screen light up on touch
full dialpad
custom focus/move icons
enlarged text on menu selection
good speed in transitions
.151 compatible








**Upon installing do a battery pull/reset
***touch the top/bottom bars once after install to get rid of dark area around the bars (caused by multiple images showing at once prior to one being selected) you will only need to do this one time after reset.


Enjoy!!

Love this theme - awesome work! It will be my main theme!! Just one suggestion, can you lighten or remove the blue background in the message app? It is kind of bright... Anyway, I still love it! (Btw, running .151)

Looks great. I don't know what the consensus would be, and I am not requesting, just an idea - what about putting text on the first icon in the dock for the WB folks? Would that mess up the alignment?

Can you swap the Calendar and Mail positions?

Yes this could be done..since I took the Noble theme as my template I put calendar at the bottom. I would have to switch to images for media and calendar and could use unread icon in mail slot as it is a larger area and forego text in those areas. Good idea, I'll look into implementing it.
Anyone else think this is a good idea?

Good call...I agree that it would be a good idea. I use my mail a lot more than the calendar.

Great looking theme! and it is also VERY functional!! GREAT job!

Take these suggestions for what they are, just suggestions.

What I would do, and I don't since I do not know how to create themes, would be the following;

Swap the Calendar and Mail positions. More mail comes in than calendar events change and the bottom position is more convenient to press.

Change the blue color! This is VERY bright in my opinion and there is nothing wrong with the plain old white for the calendar and other menus.

I love, and only use, a hidden today theme so good going on this one. However, if you wanted to make a WB and MeterBerry version, I would take out 4 of the calendar events, leaving 6.

Great job on the skinning. And you are right. The theme DOES transition very nicely.

I look forward to seeing what the final product looks like.

Ok I'm liking the input we're getting here. I'll work on it all asap. Looks like the blue screen is not a favorite...I like it but will make change to base white on next update for the masses. Thanks for all of your suggestions. I want you all to enjoy my themes as much as I enjoy making them.
