Dark Android for Tranquility 3.7

LogoSmall.png

Dark Android is a very detailed dark theme with green highlights for Tranquility 3.7. There is a limited version of Dark Android available in the Tranquility 3.7 toolbox. To get the complete Dark Android experience you must install the version in this post. I am working on an update package that works with the custom theme feature of the Tranquility toolbox and hope to have it available soon.

The following system apps are themed in the full version:
  • Browser
  • Contacts
  • Dialer
  • 3D Gallery
  • Photo Widget
  • News Widget
  • Google Search Box
  • Gingerbread Keyboard
  • Settings
  • Power Widget
  • MotoTorch/Ringer Widgets

If you would like to see Dark Android ported to another ROM, I gladly accept requests and I will see if I or someone else can do so in a reasonable amount of time. If you would like to use any of my themes or themed components, please PM me first to discuss. I work very hard to create my content and want to make sure it is always delivered in a way that goes with my original intentions.

As always, I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone and all mods, including this theme and all others, have the possibility of damaging your phone. I will do my best to support my theme and assist with any errors that may be caused by this theme. Please read all instructions and entire thread before installing. Important information can be within the thread in user posts. Please remember that I do this as a hobby after my full time job so please allow adequate time for me to respond to a question or issue.

Now available in Tranquility toolbox and bootstrap format. Apply the full Dark Android for Tranquility through the preferred method by following the instructions for your method of choice below. You should always backup your system before installing any ROM or theme.

To install Dark Android through bootstrap:
  • Copy DarkAndroid.zip to your sdcard
  • Reboot into Bootstrap Recovery
  • Install zip from sdcard
  • Choose zip
  • Browse and select zip
  • Install zip
  • When complete, use back button or power button to back up
  • Reboot phone

To install Dark Android through Tranquility toolbox:
  • Copy DarkAndroid.tar to Tranq/custom_themes/ directory on your sdcard (if it does not exist, create it)
  • Open Tranquility toolbox
  • Select "Theme Options"
  • Select "Other Themes for Tranquility"
  • Select "OK" to dismiss notification dialog
  • Scroll to the right until you get to "Custom Theme" and select
    If you get an error saying there are no themes in the custom_themes directory, back out and correct the problem with the directory. It must be named correctly and in the correct location for it to see the themes.
  • Select DarkAndroid.tar
  • Select "OK" to apply theme
Your phone will reboot as part of the installation

There is also a goodies pack that contains lots of icons, wallpapers, LP docks, and alternate fonts. To use the extra content in the goodies pack, download the goodies.zip and extract it into a folder on your sdcard.
  • The goodies pack should be extracted onto you sdcard
  • The icons can be applied using Launcher Pro, ADW EX, Desktop Visualizer, Folder Organizer, or one of the many other choices for icon customization.
  • The docks can be used with Launcher Pro and ADW EX.
  • The fonts are in flashable zips so once extracted, they can be flashed.
  • The wallpapers are applied the normal way using the gallery selection or other tool.

For more information about how to use Launcher Pro to modify your dock and icons, check out their user guide here.

To use the Widget Locker skins, download the zip file and extract it to an empty directory on your computer. Review the ReadMe.txt file in the extracted files for instructions on applying the skin. If you have any issues, please post your question to the thread or PM me. Please do not ask "How do I apply the Widget Locker skin?" before reading the ReadMe.txt in the zip file. I will direct you to read it and then come back and ask a specific question.

First let me say awesome work. I love this theme. Now I copied the Goodie.zip to my sd card and tried to install through clockwork. It would not install on my phone. It stated that it was installing but after 30 minutes, I pulled the battery and got out of it. I was wondering if you could tell me what I'm doing wrong with this zip?
Thanks Again.

Thanks again for the help. Now I just have to figure out how to set up an empty directory so I can upload the locker skin applicator.
Again THANKS!

The process for creating the themed WidgetLocker is done on your computer then you copy the finished apk to your phone.
 
Ok I copied it to my sd card and went into root explorer to install and it gives me an error can't parse package.

com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-l.apk This is the file that was generated after I unziped the file to install the dark widget locker.
 
Run the script again and look for any errors. It may be a signing problem.
