Guys,
Its been so long since i last asked for some themers to get into action for my TWRP.
Those were dark days i know; sometimes adb failed you, in other times SD card left you along the way and yet there were times when it failed to do simple installs/backups/wipes. :banghead:
But times have changed now, its working:good:, it reliable:good:, its has a large user base:good:.
Perfect time for themers to get a name/fame/recognition:victory:. I have a couple of ideas myself, but my fingers are allergic to mouse (or i'm not a good artist).
So here it goes:
1. Google Now themed
2. MIUI Themed
3. Sense Style
4. Holo or ICS look
etc etc.
Plus, its actually not that difficult once you have created all the pics with proper resolution.
The XML engine in twrp is EXTREMELY :angel:easy to use and I can personally guide you wherever you need help:highfive:.
I hope there will be lots of applicants.:fingers-crossed:
Regards
Yasir
Sweet man, I'll give holo a bash!

is this guide applicable http://www.teamw.in/twrp2-theme-guide? if it is then it seems quite easy and i'll definatley have a crack at it, also would it be possible to re-size themes already made and edit the applicable .xml's so they would work and look ok for our device ?

Great! Cheers - I've started work on a Holo theme now.
Just drafting a few ideas for a logo for the top bar, how do you like these? - a few variations on the same theme, and one in context.
Blue grey looks good .
No one up for Google now style ?

Aye, I'll work through them all after I've done Holo (...because that'll be the one I use...)
http://d-h.st/XKl
Here's my try holo dark and light.
Right, that's enough messing around with logos etc today. Here's where I've got to:
If you like it and wanna use it for anything, or want me to make any other variations for your other work, just drop me a pm.
I'll start work on the themes tomorrow.

Rosie with a splash of color
Update... Updated...
5x5 drawer with custom backgrounds now posted....
So here is the deal... Since myself and killathenoob are finding it hard to find the time to really give everyone a full on theme (And i will be taking a break to mess with my new GS2)... I thought it might be fun to give everyone a little something to play with...
I have modified Rosie with some nice application drawer backgrounds... These will work in ANY Sense 3.0 Rom...
On another note... IF you have a custom image you would like done special for you, just let me know... Its not a massive deal at all for me to do... So dont be shy.... I will mostly work on requests during the day... So evening requests will need to understand i wont touch them till the next morning...
I went with the colors most seem to like... Green, Blue and Red... And semi-transparent...
How to:
- Download to your PC
- Move to your storage (Recovery specific)
- Nandroid
- Flash
- Reboot
Things to note:
- Stock Rosie base
- Lots of xml edits to add in transparent and image backgrounds, along with 5x5 drawer...
- No, this will not flash the surrounding theme shown in the screen shots... (Most of it is just a skin, and not mine)
Reserved for me and future additions...
Looks great!
Thanks much....

What happened to the themes for TW projects? You had some DOPE-ASS custom icon/status bar shapes that really pushed the .png options out there.
TW lost its main developer for the last 6 months while he took care of real life... Now that he is back, I will be back with the team... I have amaze obviously and a GS2 on order... So my more cutting edge themes should start back up... Just need to manage my theme work with my real life... Been focusing on work, my painting (water color) and a lot of charity work...

A glass theme would be sweet
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
honestly something i notice quite a bit on xda is the overdoing of themes.
Im saying this as a graphic artist myself, a lot of the themes seem overdone and heavily colored rather than simple
my 2 cents
I'd like to see as many app icons themed as possible so when they're on 1 of my screens they match the theme in general and I like light blues or grey scale with a lot of themed apps
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
looking to start with a light blue, with some glass still got icons i think if any of you have seen my past work i like simple sharp looks not over done, but lets try something i did before lets make it interactive anyone that has skills or something to offer let me know and i can add you to a git i have set up for this done this before and had some cool stuff turn out. so if you want to give it a try shoot me a pm with your gmail

I would like to see something similar to lunar ui for cm. Too many of the themes look the same. Also a decent blue theme exists for the one X called renovate. I am using his apk on superjelly and it looks good, but it doesn't theme enough. The status bar doesn't match very well and the clock doesn't change.

Warm Rom Theme.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
(I'm talking about stock ROMs.)
When people talk about Android customizability they say it's highly customizable and about making it unique...
But I don't see this. Of course you can replace your home screen / launcher software installing alternatives... And with them you are able to even customize icons, change the home screen experience a lot, etc, but go to a system or app menu and everything looks as before.
But there aren't any status bar / notification area replacements. And lock screen replacements never work as intended (I've tested a few that all they do is block the default one into coming into action, also when you receive a call it will display on the screen already unlocked and in some devices home button is able skip them), stock notification toggles customization is only available from latest LG Optimus UI and Samsung I guess...
The other main disappointment is the fixed color for menus. Apparently no matter what you do, Android holo with this blue "highlighter" is the only color available. No matter what HTC skin you pick, some menus and notifications will be highlighted in a holo blue or default green tone when you tap them. The keyboard suggestions are aways in the green variety, and these are the only two colors to see.
It's weird. My featurephone before EVO 3D was a Sony Ericsson w300i and the themes changed much more interface elements, there was even an official theme creator from Sony so you could make themes your own for this model and many others, it didn't require "root" or anything.
Do you feel the same about it?
You're clearly not looking into themes that well, I've been able to customize my phone in every aspect I can think of. Look into Metamorph, it's quite worth it.

Well halo blue? I'm thinking we need to know a little bit more about you device before anything goes down.
Sent from my HTCEVOV4G using xda app-developers app
I'm referring to the Android's default dark holo theme which has blue accents when making menu selection, etc, and is the "default" next to the white holo theme.
My phone is the HTC EVO 3D.
What I'm saying is that theming only applies to an extent of the UI, leaving other elements un-skinnable, looking the default mixed with some colors or texture. It isn't a matter of launchers, what I mean is I can choose any HTC skin and the holo blue and some green elements won't go away... So, the HTC skin can make some elements pink for example but I'm stuck with some pre-defined colors like when tapping a notification some will glow green others pink, on some apps like Facebook and Twitter just for example the menus will be in the default Android colors (dark or white + blue accent applied to the command you're pressing), the stock keyboard will still highlight suggestions in green, etc, so this kind of experience isn't completely customizable... Some HTC skins simply won't fit because black will be ruling everything (the notifications area having the "title" in pink and the part you hold to "pull" skinned but the rest completely black, etc) instead of a nice background texture.
In a way I agree. There isn't much that appeals to me with the sense roms. There are some themes but not many and they really don't seem to change a whole lot. I've tried some cyanogenmod roms (paranoid android was my favorite) and I was very happy with all the themes and options I had, but the problem was that 3D didn't work, and that, into opinion is a perk of this device. I'm not too crazy for sense but I've decided to stay with the sense roms because everything works as it should normally. I do what I can using UCCW and other personalization apps. Hope you find something that works for you and you enjoy.

Just curious, are you using a sense ROM or cyanogenmod or other? Application icons are a piece of cake, there are icon packages or one can create in Photoshop, etc. But the notification icons I'm weary of messing with with a Sense based ROM. Thank you for your suggestion, by the way.

the op is correct. with cyanogenmod as exception I never found a room which can be themed easy. right now I am on yodas sense less and I am stuck with the blue battery because changing anything risks boot loop lol
Use MIUI , the themes will change everything including the black and blue colored windows and popups that you are referring to .

Yeah. Good suggestion. I tried the miui rom for the evo 3D/evo v and the themes were awesome and there was so many different ones. And you can mix and match icons, status bar colors and styles. And the 3D feature still worked. :thumbup:

Sense looks really nice with the semi-transparent notification bar, but it doesn't recognize other launchers the same way and keeps the fully black bar as in most normal apps. Is there a way to enable this on custom launchers? Possibly by editing the SystemUI.apk, or tricking the phone into thinking the launcher is Sense? Someone asked about it in this thread (and made a nice graphic for it), but nothing came of it. Hopefully some progress can be made here. Thanks! :fingers-crossed:

Although I am not an expert, but I think it has got more to do with the launcher and has nothing to do with the phone.. i.e. the phone really does not care if it is Sense or not... the transparancy is a feature of the launcher.
so, may be you could request the developer of the launcher to introduce this feature

Hi,
I noticed that there ain't any themes for this tablet so here is an easy way to theme your tablet.
And of course you will need to be rooted to do this.
Also use common sense when messing around the modules. If you end up in boot loops from wrongly setting up the modules then there is always a Xposed disabler zip file in the root of our sdcard that you will have to flash in recovery to remove the bootloops.
First Install Xposed app.
Second Install xTheme Engine.
Here is a collection of xThemes i have collected and uploaded in one place to easier access them.
Fourth if you want to further mod you Tablet then try the modules here.
The Xposed Framework and xTheme Engine works on all roms. The themes will only do basic theming so do not expect to move mountains with it.
Happy Theming
