I have 3 solutions:
You can try a custom launcher GO Launcher Ex is one of the best out there. Not only does it give you custom themes but also additional effects for desktop and app drawers believe me i've been using it for like 3 months and still find amazing things i can do with it
If you are rooted you can create your own MOD for changing icons and stuff by using UOT kitchen (Ultimate Online Theme Kitchen)
Else you can go to mods and themes section people have all sorts of MODs there for applyin. But for this you need to be rooted again.
Hope it helped

Best Themeable ROM

What is the best ROM for themeing? I don't really enjoy Sense and want an as close to stock ROM for the 3D. Any ideas of which one to look into?

i don't know what you mean by stock but if you mean a world without sense
CyanogenMod 7 is your best choice it also has a built in theme chooser so you can make a theme that stays persistent even as the rom gets updated
Also, if you're looking for something that is stock with ICS, Miui looks pretty badass with their ICS theme and launcher pro. That's what I'm on now and have been loving it so far.

The main reason I ask is I did a theme using UOT Kitchen and wanna check it out, I'm currently on Warm TwoPointThree and don't think it will flash completely with all the Sense nonsense going on
MIUI is by far the most themed IMO...there are hundreds of ready made themes and the built in theme manager allows you to mix and match lock screen type with icons with drawer type, font etc....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271824 is the ROM

[q] Searching for the ultimate TouchWiz Mod [changing icons & grid without losses]

[q] Searching for the ultimate TouchWiz Mod [changing icons & grid without losses]
Hello there!
I would love to use TouchWiz as my main launcher, but I´m really not into its look, especially when it comes to the icons. So my question is: Is there any newer possibility to change the theme of the icons (maybe into a JB/ICS theme)?
I have seen that there are some mods to change the grid in touchwiz, but as mentioned there - the result is a loss of the screen buddy.
So are there some more people who would like to see a "jelly beanish TouchWiz", e.g. with JB Icons and a 5*5 or 6*5 grid without loosing its functions like page buddy? I´m sure that this would get some high download rates over here
Hi there
There just happen to be these two mods made for you...
First is AOSP icons pack: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1930847
Here is the touchwiz laubcher mod http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923876
Hope it helps.

Hey Jamal, thx for your links!
AFAIK, the TouchWiz launcher you posted above suffers the Site Buddy Bug (he described it in the OP). Did you try it?

Not yet i am sincerely refraining from modding/flashing/rooting atm because of the withdrawal symptons i get
Ill try it when i get back in the rooting game again
I flashed the new hypernote rom yesterday that runs a modified touchwiz. It runs it at 5x6 which is exactly the size I was looking for. I was expecting pagebuddy to not work since I had used the above mentioned mod. To my surpirse, the 5x6 mod he uses works with pagebuddy too! So either I would suggest you try that rom out, or contact the developer and ask him what he did....

[Theme} BuuF for stock 4.12 Deodexed - 1% mod

This was built on the stock Verizon wireless 4.1.2, might work for others aswell but untested
YOU MUST BE ROOTED AND HAVE A DEODEXED ROM, you have been warned.
I am not responsible for any damage to your phone, you assume all risk.
I have been a longtime MIUI user, as I enjoy their simple theming techniques....since there is a lack of development of MIUI for our phone, I set out to make the stock rom look as cool as my old phone (never been thrilled by the stock ics text icons in electric blue or any other color, we have these cool arse phones with unappealing graphics....time to change that!). After getting close to 3 days of battery with heavy use (and I mean heavy use, backups, flashing and playing games) and Bluetooth not dropping off in my car while listening to music, I thought it was time to stay stock. (please do understand this is in no way shape an attack at the awesome devs who make roms for us, ad im sure ill eventually start flashing custom roms soon)
lots of the default plain arse black background have been changed to a more appealing dark brown.
Here we go,
What we have here is a BuuF Theme, that still a work in progress.
This theme looks best with the Buuf golauncher or ADW theme and lockscreen theme, however I plan to theme the stock Moto launcher and unlocker.
so far here is whats themed:
contacts
deskclock
geniewidget
gmail
parts of homescreen
messaging
mot camera
moto email
phone
settings
systemUI
framework
apks added and themed:
gallery goolge with 4.2 camera (with working photosphere) <---this will change your device name in build.prop to work properly
miui apps added and themed:
MiFileExplorer
MiNotes
MiuiDeskclock
MiuiMusic
mods included:
1% battery
dsp manager
photosphere
I also have made the corresponding BuuF GoLauncherEX theme and a BuuF GoLocker theme I will be releasing shortly..
the clock in my screenshot is a beautiful widget witht he andromeaBuuF theme applied (I plan to make my own to match this theme in the future)
as this theme is a work in progress, things can and will constantly change...
Please do comment and ask for requests, but please do know I work full time and have a family, so be patient.
credits to: paul Davey - mattahan for the awesome artwork
Bignadad for his jellybean theme I cherry picked the 1% mod from
anybody and everybody who has ever done any work on any phone for us crackflashers to enjoy!
and whoever else I missed.
my credit is only copying and pasting icons where needed, and little reading to modify the build.prop and such
Releases: uploading to my fileserver as it was over this sites allowable file size
http://bytethegroove.com/PublicDL/Stock XT926 Themes/ByteBuuFStockVZWDEORev4.20ALT.zip
enjoy!!!!!
reserved
BuuF GolanucherEx and BuuF Golocker will be released shortly....they compliment this theme to make a full BuuF experience (or as close as I can)
Forgot to mention also added fonts to match the theme
GOLauncherEX theme released:
search for ByteGOBuuFLaunchX in the golauncher themes gallery (FREE)
GOLocker Theme released:
search for ByteGoBuuFLock in the golocker theme gallery (FREE)
enjoy the missing pieces to the theme above
may take a few moments to show up as I just finished them, and recommended them for the gallery!!!
Awesome theme, my favourite

i'm a long time both buuf and miui fan (it even sounds compatible :cyclops and enjoyed/abused your work in various forms - importing/exporting, modifying for various devices, etc. like yourself, working hard (to the best of my knowledge <> which is rather poor) to customize my phone not loosing performance.
1. is there any chance that you make an updated buuf theme for TSF Shell (launcher)? i can fw the launcher and existing buuf theme/shell .apks if you decide to do it.
2. couldn't find any of your work for go launcher ex - went through all the themes/locks last night and there's no sign of bytegobuuf!?
thnx for yor work, there are people who really appreciate it!

Hi..you could try a program call Nova Launcher and is available at the play store..there is a free version and a paid version..and this program can change your theme and icons.

I just use wanam and xposed module...With wanam you can build practically any theme you want and is extremely easy to use. I always include it in my rom builds...I have one out for the i9205 and a v2 posting tomorrow in the dev forum for the mega. or just download xposed module from xda and wanam from the play store. Has tons of features with themes just being one of the many. As a dev wanam has been by far the easiest solution as it allows the user to make their own theme vs settling for whatever the rom creator wanted. so between wanam exposed and the already mentioned nova or apex launchers there is a nearly unlimited amount of mods to create any theme you want. below is a pic of a theme I built literally in 5 mins on a test build of my upcoming rom update...5 mins and 2 soft reboots...

if your'e not planning on rooting and installing custom roms, then you can use a third party launcher from the play store. and you can download icon packs and themes for the launcher. But if you are rooted and not planning about custom roms, you can install xposed framework.what it does is change some stuff for you..the best module for stock sammy roms is wanam xposed bacause you can able to change the battery icons and notification background etc.

Marshmallow theme is nice. *Must be rooted*
I can confirm the themes work if you rename the (.bin) to (.hwt) and place into /system/themes folder.
Thanks for those Themes! chui84 Here's redblackneo, MM, and Blackwhite. It changes icons, font, systemui, and dialer. Might help someone get used to EMUI a little.
I jump back and forth to Google Now launcher as I miss the app drawer. Other then that I don't dislike EMUI actually.
And I definetely Love this phone other than Hotspot restrictions that I am working on now.
Great find on these themes.

I tried redblackneo,changed most things, it didn't change systemui. I don't even see that in the "customize" menu in theme..... am I missing something?
that is something you cannot mix and match....
to word it differently:
Choose the theme you want based on the systemui.
Everything else can be mixed between any other themes you have installed.
My issue is I cannot get any customized network signals to work...
Battery themes.... Wifi themes.... Rotation lock themes.... Alarm themes... but that's it. How can I get some network signal love on here?
I have created a group on Google+ devoted to teaching and creating themes. Actually, there's a couple of groups on Google+ sharing themes.
And if you don't mind using translator, club.Huawei.com has themes in Chinese, they seem to almost all work fine.
