Hello, I am new to the smartphone world and I have been reading threads on here for a few days and decided to join since I got a infuse. I have ATT. and I dont understand how to download themes from this site to my phone. I am sorry if this has been asked before but I have no idea how this thing even works. Its funny when the Iphone came out I was all over it and loved it and then switched to a blackberry, now with this phone I feel like I am in the dark. Thanks in advance for any help and advice.

Thank you. I read that and I still have no idea what that stuff is. I just want a different theme, and I thought I could find it in the market but its only wallpapers. or am I missing something?
If your just wanting a theme download go launcher from the play store and then download themes for it.
In market/Google Play download Go launcher or AWD launcher to change main themes. I prefer AWD myself more things to tweek in settings. Once downloaded you can search the market for premade themes or create your own with a plugin for Go
If you want to change things like contact themes or dialers, I use Go contacts Ex. Same for SMS layout. Go has a Go SMS Ex and Go keyboard. All ive metioned are fully customizable and free. But some premade themes are pay
Hope this helps to get you started

Another Idea ...this is what I did before taking the plunge into these awesome custom ROMs,
YOUTUBE, do a search there for Samsung Infuse and themes for the android 2.3, you can get a great idea and some videos post the links to the market...
Just a idea, that's what I did...
BTW welcome....
Short Explanation
I'll try to keep this simple since I was a newbie recently lol
ROM - basically all the software on your phone, your entire OS, since you have ATT, you have:
stock ROM (unchanged), Android 2.2 Froyo (OS name)
Kernel - the drivers to make the hardware and software click, you have:
stock kernel (unchanged)
Developers edit stock ROMS and tweak them and release them for eveyone to use. Often, they release themes for them. To change your ROM, you have to:
-root (get administrative access, jailbreak for Android)
-get recovery (where you can flash ROMS, kernels and stuff) (flashing is another way to say installing)
-download a ROM, follow instructions and flash (install)
-download a theme FOR THAT ROM, follow instructions and flash (install)
If im missing something, let me know people thnkz

Themes
I have had very good results with the GO EX Launcher. There are all kinds of add-ons and themes you can get for free (tons more paid). You can also download an app called Zedge that will help you select wallpapers, sounds, and ringtones for free to finish it off. Enjoy!

Hey, Guys
im a total noob in programming and stuff :silly:
but im very much interested in mobiles and technology
I wanted to port Cyanogenmod to my htc desire 826(only china and india release, so i figured there will be no further updates from htc )
I saw many guides for noobs but they said base rom shouldnt be stock, and please correct me if i am wrong that port rom should be pure
So if base rom shouldnt be stock then i cant use the rom in htcdev
and it is written any other rom(cyanogen?) for same soc(snapdragon 615) and resolution(1920X1080)
there is no rom available like that the closest i found was yu yureka plus but the rom there itself is for both the 720p and 1080p resolution( project-tomato just made the account so outside links restricted )
also it is from a different manufacturer
Please guys help me it will be much appreciated
Also too I have been following xda for a long time
Also which method should i follow??
P.S.
Guys i really like all this stuff can you please tell me where should i start learning it and to understand android code
Also built universal apps that run across all three platforms
Thanks guys your help will be much appreciated :fingers-crossed: :fingers-crossed:

Hi,
Everything you need is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/guide-android-rom-development-t2814763
I wish you the best of luck
Hi.. I am new here give address by other awesome member of yours..
I want to know if is possible to change or personalize your OS on you samsung S7.. ??
If I ask the wrong question sorry to the administrators..
Other wise thanks in advance..
Certainly. You may just want to make minor changes, then find a custom launcher, prettify it with icon pack and cool wallpapers. If you want deeper changes, I'd suggest to find a custom ROM that satisfy your needs(there are lots on the internet, I've found King of Nougat ROM after quick search on XDA). Then you have to flash it on your phone. Beware and read carefully installation instructions, otherwise you may get a brick. Then look for some customization tools such as Xposed.
Good luck.
Thanks HenriDellal appreciated your answer.. awesome I will research..
Great !!!
Hey, i recently got this device(SM-N9007) so im just introducing myself around this sub-forum
You may have seen me recently around the Amlogic based Android TV forums aswell as the Galaxy S3 forum where i almost completely ported the S5 UI to the Galaxy S3(Revolutionary S5 ROM).
I look forward to making ROMs and kernels for this device and speaking/working with some of you!
Step 1.. lets drop the old samsung UI and get with the times!
Step 2.. Probably a kernel.
Step 3.. An easier alternative to root.
welcome to our device forum. I thank you for the interest you show to our device and I wish u good luck !
Hi, welcome. Can you make SystemUI for stock based roms? I am using Audax rom. I dont like pull down menu, quick setting menu. A cumtom theme will be good.
