Since it's not a functional problem (and it's kind of hard to fix) it's not at the top of my list, but I'll figure something out eventually.

Yeah, not to mention it's only visible for a few seconds. But I needed 2 items to make a list ;)

I would like to add a vote of confidence for the blue border on the theme background, it's a nice touch. Right now if you try to line up a widget with the outer line/curve, you'll get some shadow where the widget meets the line. This would probably be impossible to fix without jaggies though.

Really dig it, the sound pack is top notch as well, I have some feedback to leave on that thread as well.

I'm not actually sure what you mean... Could you post a screenshot?

Thank you for this wonderful theme! Love it.

Unfortunately as already stated text is not readable in OMWeather and in Web2SMS when writing a text messgage (will notify the developer as well).

I can't use now, because it's not compatible with Web2SMS. What a pity :eek:

Cheers.

The OMWeather bug was filed, and they've already pushed a fixed version to extras-devel.

I don't have Web2SMS configured on my device, and it looks like I'd need to make an account to set it up... If you could post a screenshot of the invisible text, and another of the same screen in one of the built-in themes, I'll try to figure out whether the bug is in the theme or the app. If it's black text on a black background, I suspect the bug is in the app.

My wallpaper is black with borders, but it's not present the strange circle of the ian's avatar. Where should it be?
Something I don't like are the black characters with the blue background , for example in the virtual keyboard (bottom) and in the phone calls (select contact) it's not easy to read.

It's labeled "Image Set - Okudagram" in the list of backgrounds. The theme's default background (with just the blue outline) is labeled "Theme - Okuda".

Sorry, but I don't really want to change that, as I like the look of the buttons and don't have any trouble reading them. Maybe I (or someone else) will release a variant with different buttons/colors at some point.

Thanks for the screenshots. Assuming the highlighted text ("Text marked") is invisible (black on black) when not highlighted, I think it's up to the app's developers to fix it. They should probably use DefaultTextColor there.

For Ian: how can I choose between wallpapers of your theme?

You select wallpapers the usual way... Tap on the desktop, tap the gear icon, and select "Change background" (assuming you're using the English localization).

The theme installs two background sets; one with the circular design seen in my avatar, labeled "Image set - Okudagram" (on English-localized devices), and one with just the blue outline, labeled "Theme - Okuda". Both of the theme's wallpapers usually show up at the top of the list when the theme is in use.

Unfortunately the thumbnail for the "Theme - Okuda" wallpaper is actually just the theme's icon, which includes the circular graphic even though it doesn't actually appear on that wallpaper. Sorry for the confusion. Since you're not the first to ask about this, I think I'll edit the OP to mention it.

another icon/color issue I think was not mentioned
in Desktop menu -> Manage views, the checkmarks on the views are not visible

I'm seeing this weird problem in the application manager where the themes icons appear when it starts, but then the default icons show up.

Any idea what's going on?

I have no idea why that's happening, but I don't think it could be caused by the theme... The Okuda theme doesn't do anything differently from the other themes (aside from covering a larger number of icons than most). No custom transitions, and nothing else out of the ordinary... Since no one else has reported any problems like this with the theme, I think there must be something else wrong on your phone. Did you install or change anything else around the time the crashes started?

If all else fails, I'd suggest backing up and flashing your N900. Sorry I don't have a better answer for you. :/

Do you currently have the Okuda theme selected, or one of the default themes?

Maemo automatically caches screenshots of certain app UIs, which it momentarily displays when the apps are first launched to provide the illusion of a faster loading time. Sometimes the screenshot it displays is from a theme which is no longer selected, which is what I think is happening in your case. It should work itself out on its own, but you're likely to see this occasionally if you switch themes regularly. Someone should probably file a bug on that (if it hasn't already been done), but it's kind of a tough one because the problem occurs intermittently and I don't know of any reliable way to reproduce it.

Re: [Release] Okuda theme (N900)
 
thanks for your reply ian. i probably did install a few other programs at the same time but to be honest i cant remember what they were. unfortunately ive had to stop using the theme as the freezing problem keeps on happening and it is too much of a pain having to to turn the phone off/on, shame as i relly liked this theme.
as for flashing im too much of a newb to try that.
anyway i have installed the okuda system sounds and they are great and make the 900 sound really high tech, thanks for those.

If the crashing seems to have stopped for now, would you mind un-installing and re-installing the Okuda package and trying the theme once more? I'd be curious to know if the problem persists.

Re: [Release] Okuda theme (N900)
 
unstalled and re-installed this morning and has been just fine all day god willing. dont know what was wrong with it on the first install.

Re: [Release] Okuda theme (N900)
 
Just wanted to note that the text color problems with FeedingIt RSS Reader, OMWeather, and Web2SMS have been fixed by the developers of those apps. Many thanks to those who filed bugs, and to the awesome developers who fixed them so quickly!
  • Web2SMS v0.1.2-8 is available in extras-testing, and needs more testers and votes.
  • OMWeather v0.28.4 is also in extras-testing, and will hopefully be promoted in a couple days since it's already received enough votes.
  • FeedingIt RSS Reader v0.8.0-7 is currently in extras-devel.
  • Okuda theme v1.0.2 is still in extras-testing, and needs a few more votes.

Love the theme -- just noticed one issue that doesn't seem to be going away with reboots, etc:

http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4134/...89da54ac_b.jpg

Is anyone else seeing this?

Also noticed the 'Now Playing' shortcut in media player (icon that shows up in the bottom right) is the default.


Otherwise, this is just brilliant :)

Yeah many of the media player graphics are unthemeable, including the now playing shortcut. I'd file a bug with Nokia, but it seems like they don't even respond to bug reports anymore, much less actually fix them. :(

The fullscreen media player controls seem to just reuse the regular media player button graphics (with bad cropping applied for no apparent reason). I could fix that by making the buttons smaller (i.e. just the symbols, without the rounded blue rectangle behind them). I don't really want to release an update just for that, but I'll probably change it if/when I get some more bug reports to fix at the same time.

Yeah it's definitely not dire enough to warrant you going to any trouble over.. I just wanted to be sure there wasn't something off about my particular install. :)

Very nice theme...always the''color'' and sheme i want of my mobile device.

in 2100 and more (if we get there lol ) we got always the lcars and similar sheme and UI.

I like this!

Re: [Release] Okuda theme (N900)
 
Great theme.
Is there any chance that you will create matching video for booting? :D

Also, I can't see any background,only blue frames on black. When I'm trying to choose "Theme - Okuda" it marks "Okudagram".
I'm using freshly reflashed PR1.2 and only apps from Extras.

The "Theme - Okuda" wallpaper is just the blue outlines on black, and "Image set - Okudagram" has the circular design on one of the four screens. Do you have all four desktops enabled? Can you select other wallpapers? I'm not sure what could be causing the problem you're having, but if it's still happening I'd suggest removing, reinstalling, and reapplying the theme, and then rebooting.
