No wipes necessary, normally.

Well you would probably want to flash back over your original rom and then the new theme. Its not necessary but some themes theme more stuff then other and you might get some mixing. Wiping dalvik helps also but is also not necessary.
For instance some times theming goes into other app like facebook but your new theme my not if you then flashed the new theme the face book them would still be there. Sometimes this can produce nice results and sometime not so much.
Thanks for the help I appreciate it didn't wanta do it with out at least checking the forums first

A default theme is what it would look like after a fresh install
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
the default theme, if i'm not wrong, is the android stock theme. which is the one, in my opinion, every rom should include as default, or at least, as an option (cm 6.1.3 from wolfbreak is awesome, but i don't like the theme)
i think you can get it reflashing the rom

Why don't you just extract the framework from beta 4 and use it on wolfs cm6.1.3
Or install beta 4 and add Cm settings, then add apps etc from wolfs rom?
Just a thought

Thanks for the reply guys. Maybe I should have been more specific. I'm currently using Z's freeX10 beta 4 and the thing is I don't want to reflash every thing or else I'd need to customize everything back to the way it is. Too time consuming haha. Basically I want it because when I installed another theme before, some aspects of the theme remained on my phone even though I installed another theme. I'm not sure how to get rid of them, so I was hoping the default theme would get rid of them. I'll attach pictures to this post in a few minutes to show you what I mean. And yeah, I did try to extract the framework from the beta 4 but i failed miserably, It didn't let me install it through recovery
EDIT: attached pictures from phone. basically I really hate that youtube icon and I wanna get rid of it and revert it back to the normal one.
You wont be able to install framework through xrecovery, you would have to swap it using root explorer and change permissions, reboot then it should be fine
But make sure you copy the framework that was on before just in case anything happens, and/or backup using xrecovery for safety

I wanted a lighter theme, with transparency, and also really enjoyed the theming from the SGS4G Bionix Frost theme by Team Whiskey.
This theme is based on GingerClone, as well as a port of Bionix Frost, as well as some other random things that looked good to me. I also included my Extended Power Menu edits as well.
Credit to Ayoteddy for Gingerclone, and to Team Whiskey/Dr. Honk for the Bionix Frost theme for the SGS4G.
Requirements:
Rooted Rom
Deodexed Rom (any themed rom is deodexed).
Instructions:
1. reboot into recovery
2. make sure that /system is mounted in the mounts menu
3. flash the theme .zip
4. make sure that /system is mounted again before rebooting
5. enjoy!
Let me know if there are any problems, I'll try my best to help you out.
I have tested this with a fresh installation of Gingerclone, and it worked just fine, so it should work for you.

The menu background being transparent bothered some, so here's a fixed version that uses the stock background that isn't transparent, it's grey instead.

I think the transparent popup background was intentional... I could be wrong though
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App
it was intentionally transparent, I'm updating it with a semi-transparent background now though. the issue was that the background to that popup was a .9.png and I didn't want to mess with the draw9patch. I'm just gonna fix it with the kitchen now though, it'll be up shortly.

I know it was intentional but since its a .9 png the background goes bigger then the title bar that's all u can keep it transparent just has to. Redone with draw9
And what ketchen u use if I may know
Sent From My Rooted Sidekick 4g XDA Premium App
I did all of the theming by hand, but UOT Kitchen was what I was going to use for changing the popup, however it keeps giving me errors. the only reason that title isn't transparent is cause I can't seem to find it's background image.
I'm going to try UOT again to get a transparent popup.
Everything in my theme currently was done by me by hand, if I can get the transparent part working, that will have come from UOT.
This is the link to UOT: http://uot.dakra.lt
Don't have time for transparency, but added a version with the original menu backgrounds, so they are grey and not transparent.

I know which elements to change, the issue is that changing those requires re-adding the .9 patch and I'm too busy right now to add that. it really doesn't matter that much to me, maybe if I get bored or find more time i'll look into it.

For some odd reason I flashed the zip and double checked that I had the system mounted before and after the flash and got absolutely nothing. Does the sdcard need to be mounted as well?
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App
Blah mounting sd card doesn't work either. I have system mounted and everytime I flash and reboot its still the same and the theme is not applied.
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA App
Unmount system before reboot

Still nothing.. clearly this theme and I have relationship issues.

KillJarrod what rom are you on?
I had to apply twice lol I don't even remeber how I actually did it but first time it didn't apply just do mounts like u do in maxiums rom and aplly check mounts and reboot should work

Currently using gingerclone I followed the steps like a bunch of times and the zip is in the root of my sdcard so like I said, this theme doesn't want to be with me.

This don't work on KG2
It's not supposed to, it hasn't been ported to KG2 yet.
EDIT: I'm not sure what you're talking about Revolution, but it works just fine on KG2, it just needs to be deodexed, which I had in the OP.
Well got another question lol I know I'm a noob to the whole rooting Droid phone's but I changed my rom to euroskank cm9 was wondering why there is a few things in settings I can't get into or there is nothing there, do I have to update the rom, and was wondering about themes for it. Thanks in advance
I was just wondering what the certain things are that you can't get into/select?
When I go into system settings I can't open dock or icon settings but the rom is a great looking rom . There is a few other options that are blank nothing important stuff like themes

I have one more Q about the rom I don't have rom manager paid version, so updating the rom for the features they haven't put in yet will it update thru the settings under about phone or will I have to use Google for that. Is rom manager worth the buy that's the only way I know of or how to change the rom in the g2x

time for you to do some reading, if all your using is ROM manager, then you need to read up on NVFlash. without NVFlashing your phone, if you get stuck in a bootloop, you cant access recovery.
as for changing the ROM, just check these forums from time to time. I wouldnt reccomend automatic updates anyway because most updates in roms introduce new quirks and issues, and if you look at the thread in the forum before flashing it youll get a better idea of what those issues are.
I have flashed a new recovery have had one rom boot loop but have tried a couple like the cm9 but missing a few features I would like to have that are not in it, there so much stuff that's possible trying to find a set up I like lol
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
Read read read and read some more. A little reading goes a long way! You nvflased your phone right? I don't even use rom manager. I boot into recovery each and every time I want to switch roms. As for updates just go to the Site or check out rootzwiki. That is where my buddy dj posts the roms. Here is euroskank Site http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/
Hopefully I don't get heat for this lol

Doesnt work on my phone, mytouch 4g, running ViperTouch 2.1.3
Got it working but didn't do anything. The only thing available at the moment is winter board. (I understand just came out a few days ago or so) seems to do the same thing as theme chooser in any custom launcher but with the fact that u have to restart every change like in iOS. But didn't apply any theme.
I'm running cm10.1 albinomans rom

Cool, but with mine, the winterboard doesnt see the cydia app and continues to ask me to reboot.
I think the rom i am using has been modded in a different way all together.
Last time i flashed a boot animation with CWM recovery only to see that it didnt work. So i guess its the rom.
About the boot animation it might have been a flash able zip for aosp based ROM. Sense ROMs have it in a different location. U don't need to flash it u could change it manually using a file explorer. I don't remember where exactly its located but u can Google boot animation location sense ROM and then just delete then copy paste with the correct name

It could be a problem with sense. Try a AOSP rom.
Okay.
