Supported Device Model(s) and OS: 83xx (not 8350i) OS 4.5
Download Link(s): End of post
Theme Cost: FREE!!!

I liked the carrier ATT theme, but with it being an icon style theme, I never stuck with it. Well, I decided to fix this problem and make it today plus! Hope you enjoy it!

The current version is a today plus with messages and calendar. Messages have 0 subentries and calendar has 5. Features user customizable homescreen icons and custom font size on message list and options.

With all the updates I've done, none of the versions look like the one below. The main things is different font. Enjoy!

Screens:

Black font (still no message subentries and now more calendar subentries)

Today+ M4C4 (black font)

Its a great idea, thanks. Can I make a few suggestions? I hope you don't mind, but I've always wanted to have this theme but apparently ATT isn't that smart.

1. The today screen font is hard to read with the shadow.

2. Can you add a few sub-messages to the home page?

3. Can you make the icons bigger on the icon page?

4. The ATT network indicator cuts off the name of the wifi network (no big deal)

Thanks again for a great idea and work on this...

I'll get started on it. Just to let you know, I can't resize the images on the icons page bigger. 48x36 is as big as the Curve will allow. What kind of font are you looking for? A black one? And finally, how many message subentries do you want? Do you want? I assume that however many you want just subtract it from the calendar subentries?

And just to let everyone know, I've updated the original theme and updated the OTA link to reflect that. Thanks!

This is great. Thanks.

Blue or black would be cool.

3 messages/ 3 calendar

looks really good except for a couple things: in the calendar display, there is an overlap of text btwn the subject and location. while the new black text is more easily readable, could you use the same style and font as you use for the time/date in the banner? that text is more clear. like yourself, i stopped using the att icon theme in favor of a today+.
thanks again for your efforts.
...same overlap issue with the messages display

enviroman · 06-04-2009, 06:15 PM

There is an overlap on the messages also. I bet plain text would look even better than BOLD. Thanks for everything. Its appreciated.

Thanks for the great theme. Your work is appreciated, but please note that there are to be "no requests" except for "premium" members. Thanks.

StevenInSTL · 06-04-2009, 06:45 PM

We do have a No Request rule on PMB, but there is an exception to the rule whenever it pertains to making a specific request on a theme that has been posted and where the author is willing to make deviations from the original theme.

Please keep that in mind.

Please do not ask the author to make other themes..if it does not pertain to this ATT style theme.

daddeez · 06-04-2009, 06:51 PM

Thanks for the clarification Steve !

enviroman · 06-05-2009, 07:24 PM

Ok, so to be clear, we can continue with our current dialogue including suggestions regarding the ATT style theme??

Seems like the thread suddenly halted since the "no requests" warning.

Yes you may continue as long as the author is willing to make changes. The request rule does not apply to theme adjustments or enhancements

First of all let me say, Thank You!
I felt the same way about the old ATT icon theme, and this is a great idea. I too agree with the others that removing the bold from the font will make this cleaner and more polished looking. Other than that and the overlap on the messages title and count, I think you have a winner here.
Great work!
