Is this possible at all? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

To make Skype black/dark? TBO used to have a black themed version but it hasn't been updated since 2014. I use nothing but black/dark apps to save battery life and because bright white backgrounds give me a major head ache. Skype is like literally the only app I use with no dark theme.
Any help would be appreciated! I run both Samsung TouchWiz rom and Cyanogenmod 13 alpha build for the Note 5. Thanks! And sorry if this is in the wrong spot. I've Googled for hours and hours.

Guessing this is a no. I can't believe Microsoft won't add a dark theme at least.

Anyone willing to make a tbo version? Those instructions on their site are above my head :/

MOD please remove thread

I had some things to figure. this is what I decided, I'm currently working on (4) themes and that is way more than I can handle. so I will move the TC 2.5 link to the Twisted Stock page for those of you who still want it.. all work on the 2 unreleased projects will stop, for now. updates on Twisted Colors will SLOW, not stop. for me it really is about Quality not Quantity.........I will leave this here for a few Days Then request MOD delete......
Here it is.. Twisted Colors 2.5
First things first...If you have a Vibrant meltdown, its on you...you should know what your doing by now! anyway.....This does not work on Simply Stock "next project" however it did work on 5.0 so if you go that route and your phone explodes, thats on you to.this is my first public theme so be honest but be nice. this theme is in noway complete. (about 90%) I have flashed this theme roughly 60 times throughout stages with no undesired results...If you like what you see just hit the thanks button, thats all i ask. i did not use rom manager just flashed through recovery.Please keep in mind guys it will only get better. I did flash this on my test phone and my daily driver, no issues for me. oh I did have 1 issue I changed some TWiz icons but they refuse to take. I use Zeam so its no big deal for me. if you use anything else you want notice.. ok enough small talk here it is
Twisted Colors 2.5 update: minor edits +more twframework edits
http://www.multiupload.com/DI2D30M8XY
P.S. feel free to rip it apart, eat it, bury it or borrow the icons. I don't care. I just ask that you give credit. i did use a couple of icons from SPLASH OF COLOR "with Permission".
Sounds good. Will it be compatible to Simply Stock JVS 2.3.5 also?

This should work fine for SH 5.0 RC1 shouldn't it? They are both JVR base. Unfortunately I can't get SH 5.1 to boot on my phone and I have tried everything. SH 5.0 RC1 is rock stable with no flashing problems. Thank you for implementing color icons on notification bar in the next update. The colors have amazing pop with voodoo color and Talon kernel.
Looks great

Looking for a good resource to teach me how to theme apps

I'm looking to custom build my own app themes - where can I learn how to do this?
For example, I'd like to make the Google music app more sAMOLED friendly (more blacks, less blue).
Any ideas on how I could get started to learn this? Eventually I'm going to want to expand and build my own CM9 theme. Thanks

[THEME]BLACK EXODUS v4.2 2-27 READ POST#59!

First of this is created by Nitroz who then gave Razer(x) permission to port it. I tried to flash and it would fail. Razer(x) tried for a second to help me get it running but was a nogo. And since I am no dev I couldnt make that work so I took the files and put together this Metamorph. It takes out damn near most of the cyan..still some left. It is a work in progress as I keep playing with it and also am trying to make a black and green version. I am not maintaining or anything but I will put up any decent working versions I can manage. I'm puttin them in dropbox, the smaller file you can just run thru metamorph as usual. The larger file includes the morph as well as the apk's it will mod, in case someone needs them. Hopefully Nitroz will support the Atrix..I've ran this on build 4 and 5, shouldnt be any crazy issues.
Thanks to Nitroz and Razer(x)

v3.6
now compatible w/ Turlv8 andJokers Beta 2
http://db.tt/A1PHhbIo - CORRECTED LINK TO FLASHABLE VERSION..sorry!
v4.0
http://db.tt/EyamOA91
clock color is fixed, battery is not the 1% circle anymore its the boring bar. i was using rom toolbox to change it but now i use the miui battery bar app, the better option if u ask me.
**for some reason it causes Gmail not to show and Novalauncher to crash so I edited them out of the control file until it gets straightened out.
v4.2
http://db.tt/8asaP6Eh
causes usb mass storage while phone is on to break. u can still access in recovery. adb works fine regardless. this does color the clock, carrier and date BUT breaks usb..Gmail and noval auncher are fixed, anf there i theming for apex launcher (apex is nice!), install it before flashing this obviously

Doesnt seem anybody is interested in this. i made a CWM flashable version updated as of today 2/11. let me know if anyone wants it.
I couldn't get it to work right, but I'd be interested in a cwm version to test.
I have no metamorph experience so i'm prolly just doing something wrong

[REQ-THEME] Holo Light UI

Hey all,
I was wondering if anyone knows of a theme that keeps the stock look but goes with a Holo Light theme instead of the Holo Dark which Google just can't seem to shake.
Holo Light vs Holo Dark example
It would theme things like the Settings menu (which still has the dark theme) to look more consistent with where Google seem to be taking the colour scheme (Dialer, contacts, hangouts etc)
It would also be a bonus if some of the Holo Blue (#33b5e5) was replaced with KitKat White (#bebebe) to get rid of other inconsistencies, such as the volume bars, settings toggles (WiFi/BT).
I found this theme but the #33b5e5 just looks so out of place in KitKat..
Alternatively if anyone knows of another way to achieve this it would be good to know.
Thanks for reading!

You can always check on the G+ group for development. That's where the testers hangout haha, so maybe it's just a bug (or soon to be done).

How to theme your Tablet!

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
I was wondering if you had any pics of the specific themes. Would help a lot to see which ones would suit my taste.

Sorry i dont have that as i dont use this at the moment.
I got a Note 3 and there are some awesome themes for that but i am ether gonna buy a Note 10.1 or a Note 8 tablet and was browsing the forums to see what roms was available and noticed you guys don't have any themes.
So i just made a post but when i get my tablet i will be posting the screens of the themes i try out.
If you try any of the themes then you could help the community by uploading some screen shots for others to see

Oh man I can't wait
I just ordered my Note 10.1 4G 2014 and it will be here in a week or so.
Once I receive my Note 10.1 I will try out all the themes and delete those not compatible with this device.
If I get the time I will make as many screen shots of the themes I try out.
Please if you guys can do the same and upload your screen shots of the themes you try then you will help out the community.
Screenshots
I am a bit disappointed or maybe I did something wrong? I tried royal theme and miui sony theme and the only thing that changed was wifi icons and some stuff in the notification are. If anyone knows some full themes that would be great. Screenshots attached, first two are royal elegance and the last one is sony miui. I only took screen shots of what was themed because nothing else changed for me
I would suggest The guy who did True Icon (keygenSVK)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2286137) I believe gave up on it at 4.2.2
There is a post later that had this Link hidden...

There was someone that Ported that specific Theme to 4.3 OMEGA Rom. I've Personally Flashed it but only a few things changed, mainly App Icons. Nothing on status Bar Changed which is what Iooking for.
I've Used Wanam Exposed to change Colors at least.
