It seems like such a simple thing...it can be done system-wide by editing the framework file, but it seems like using the CM Theme Engine would be much nicer.
Is there any such theme, which is just Holo Light (or Holo Light with Dark Action Bar)?
I second that request. I have a feeling Key Lime Pie will put a huge emphasis on Holo Light and I want to be a part of that.

i've looked and looked, i don't think it's been done.
I think the closest you will get is a miui theme :/
I haven't tried it, but https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cm.theme.HoloWhite looks nice in the screenshots.
I see https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEwMiwiY29tLnRpbGxhei50aGVtZS5Ib2xvTGlnaHQiXQ.. is a little older, and also looks nice.
Anyone tried either?

How do you do this on a system wide level by editing the framework file? I tested a couple of CM holo light themes but they dont work to well on the S4 due to the screen resolution I think but I would really like to enable it...

There's a thread on XDA about it (I think in this forum, or in the SW Development forum), but the answer is effectively changing "theme=holo" to "theme=holo.light" in one of the framework XML files. Since Holo, Holo Light, and Holo Light with Dark Action Bar are in-built Android themes, this change lets all OS rendered screens (preferences, etc.) change theme. It doesn't affect applications (since that's an application preference setting for Holo based applications), but it's a pretty elegant solution nonetheless.

I tried the first one, but the notifications and the tiles in the quick settings panel are dark and it looks very inconsistent.
The theme engine will. Other be able to make a complete light theme as it is limited in what it can do.

This is excellent and very less space consuming...is it possible to have black background button instead of green? That may even look excellent.

thanks... and for background button...that will risk mobile framework apk and even go bootloop if not matched with other apks color styles....and even if we do on every single apk it will be hefty task......

My bad, I really sorry for messing up my question. My original request I intenteded was to have a black background rather than green. Your theme is blue foregound and green background.Request is only on theme not on button. Sorry for that.
So it would good if we have a themse with combination something like White Foreground - Black Background, Black Foreground -White Background, other two combinations are like both white and both black.
Sorry for giving you big request, but that themse would be something I haven't seen anywhere
-SeneoV
Ok i will come up with something like that combinations....thanks for idea
thanks...I will look forward to have your new theme...

Thanks! Does G6 have full month calendar widget? If yes please post screenshot of it with some example event added.
On new event page there is: cancel, pocket and save. What is "pocket" for?
and the last thing: incoming call and during call screen please

Well i have one theme working on thr G6 right now and I have a thread open in the themes and apps section for support and feedback.
Now this is slightly tricky because there are some obstacles I am facing with porting some of these over. I cannot port over them all due to some extreme ui differences in a few apps. The main issue (but not the only one ) is because with the G6 there are a few apps where the text is hard coded white and thr same apps the trxt is hard coded black. So in short one device will get screwed with either dark text on a dark background or white text on a light background which creates readability issues. I most certainly cannot have that happen. And also the G6 has a lot of different elements that can be themed. So if i were to add those to an exisiting v20 theme it will cause the v20 to no longer work because it's telling the theme engine to theme xxx icon or xxx color which isn't supported. Thus the theme doesn't function. So that's an issue.
So what the plan is, is to port over a few themes that I can get it to function properly on both devices and the ones that can't will have to be a new theme.
Off the top of my head the ones that can expect to work on all devices are: Dark Nougat (already updated and live), Flow, Indigo flow and crush.
Remix, Vector, Dark Material, Dark AOSP, Pixel Ui are not going to work and will have to be new themes that will only work with the G6.
I'm not sure about Dark Ui theme yet. It may or may not work.

I tested this theme for the Dev and it definitely had white on white text in the sms app. The dialer had black text (ABC) on a dark grey background as well but I don't know if either are hard coded.

Correct. There are some issues. Some are fixable amd some are not.
Oh btw you're not allowed to link to play store themes that are paid. You may get in trouble for that. I purposely didn't quote that part of your post should you wish to edit that out!

Interesting you say that, because I have some issues with some of the LG free themes from their smartworld store. Mainly with the notification panel. When there is a notification, the text is white same as the background. I am surprised on how they can mess up big time like that!

This theme is looking like if a 10 years old did it.
Why the bright colors, with no match to other aesthetic UI elements? Wanna make a theme? Have some inspiration from other themes. You've to keep a consistent UI through the whole theme.

Try settings and all backgrounds of 'arc dark' colour and accent colour of 'cyan' colour.
Primary colour of dark 'blue grey' colour.
Make status bar as you like.
I think the theme is gonna look cool.
Try it and post here.
If possible add aosp icons every where like settings and status bar and quick settings.
Okay so basically make the settings black, am I correct?

No, arc dark is something like blue see the pallette.
It is a full material setup.
Does anyone know any good dark themes that work with this phone, i have tried many themes and there are always some issues like the text being the same colour as the background on notifications
Any suggestions would be nice
Swift dark gives best results for me. Though notification issue is there on the lockscreen.

hot tip, i've found through trial and error that if you also use SX darkres and theme the system but place it lower in priority than swift dark it fixes the lockscreen notification issue.
How do you do this
I've tested many substratum themes to achieve the dark design (mostly for dark statusbar), but the only one which works fine is "[Substratum] Sai's Oreo Theme". I applied the theme in Substratum just for the SystemUI (if I checked also the others overlays the theme didn't applied properly). So, I'm using the default setting (white notification colour) just to avoid any kind of unreadable subtitles or lockscreen notifications. If you need more DARK colours in other apps you can try to apply per app overlays from SX DarkRes or similiar themes. Combine a few and maybe you'll achieve more dark appearance without any kind of bugs. Good Luck! :fingers-crossed:
Screenshot (I've got less than 10 posts, so I can't post it here): oi65.tinypic.com/23shfk0.jpg
I use several themes on XZ1 Compact: PitchBlack, SX DarkRes and Graphi. This gives nearly ideal result
Is it possible to pick a new color other than the default orange? I probably want a blue or something, but I don't really want to mess with framework apks. Is this yet possible? I did check the asus theme app but I did not see an option for that.
Yeah. Use the themes app, go to my themes, and then find the create button. If you can't find it I'll reply with more info
Put a blue picture as background and make the theme, change your wallpaper back after.

thanks I found the create button under my creations. I can now change the colour settings and icon shape, wallpaper, etc. I'm just playing around with it now. I think I can get it the way I like from here on my own. thanks again man!
EDIT: Actually, it looks better now, but it kicked me out of dark mode in settings and such. I actually prefer it this way, but its also interesting. I wonder if any of the mods I tried initially may not have worked because of the default theme's dark mode. hmmm...
I wanted to make my status bar always black with white icons. used to work on my old phone, but it was old. so yea doesn't work
