CM9 Theme – BeMiNIX is Definitely Worth Your Attention

If you have made the jump to Cyanogenmod 9 or CM9, and are getting a taste of Ice Cream Sandwich on your phone, this may just be the topping that you need, to make that ICS even more delicious, and awesome looking. Presenting the BeMiNIX Theme by XDA member  DaxIΠFIΠITY.

The BeMiNIX theme sports a Sony Ericsson Xperia like elegant look, with those cool hues of blue and turquoise. While the theme was designed to work on all devices with ICS 4.0.3, it currently works only on devices which are running Cyanogenmod 9 or CM9 ICS. This is an Alpha build of the theme, and will receive further improvements and enhancements.

Flashing it is a pretty straightforward and simple process. All you need is to be rooted (which you obviously would be if you are running CM9) and have Clockworkmod Recovery installed (again, stating the obvious).
