I am still trying to figure out how to get the theme chooser to accept some of the redirects for apks that have capital letters in the name, apparently its a bug...if anyone comes across a solution please let me know.
Thanks!

Do you have a list of themed apps/icons?

Yeah I'll add one to the OP, and update it as I go. Thanks for the suggestion.

Hey ex,
How about dolphin and handcent?

Swype maybe? After the family outing of course.

Yeah for some reason dolphin didn't stick, have to look further into that one...hand cent added and swype definitely added. The regular keyboard looks pretty but damn I miss my swype...

I would love to see a red theme for this if and when you get a chance. I was all about the communion theme on Emancipation. I would like to see something like that here with this ROM. Thanks for all your hard work guys!

He's already got the xda icon themed for cypher. At least it is on my end. I think he made a flashable zip that added a few more icons to it. Its a few pages back in the actual cypherrom forum

Did you see the update? I got most of those...the weather channel didn't stick for some reason though.
What I've been finding is that the theme chooser has a hard time with apks that have a capital letter in their name. For example that app is called com.weather.Weather.apk it throws an error about the capital W. Gotta look into it further to see how to get around that.

X,
You realize everytime you post in q&a it bumps your thread above my q&a ??? :laugh: :laugh:
Only kidding - but for real - more beautiful work from you, your hard work really, really pays off in the finished product, congrats, man. Enjoy the outing with your beautiful family !! Regards.

Do we need to wipe anything before flashing the update?
Sent from my SGH-i997 using xda app-developers app

All flashed. Thanks. Looks great. I was thinking, you said weather channel wasn't accepting the theme because of the capital w right. If you are all using a custom launcher couldn't you release the icon for download and we save it in the gallery and use nova settings to select it. Its not perfect, but its a work around till you perfect your method.
Sent from my SGH-i997 using xda app-developers app

If this rom had a stock JB theme (pretty vibrant blue and all) it'd be an absolute no-brainer for moi.

Not exactly a theme question, but when connecting the infuse to my computer the external SD card doesn't show up. Is there a solution to this?

My only comment it, damn, this looks great man.. I love the color..
Home run brother!

Jellybean CM 9 Theme by Team Syndicate on the Play Store skins this rom back to JB default. Most perfect JB rom I've used for this phone now, by a long shot.

Google Calendar App vs S Planner

Have you tried the recently launched Google Calendar App?
http://officialandroid.blogspot.com/2012/10/bringing-google-calendar-to-play-store.html
I find it smoother an cleaner than S Planner, so I'm giving it a try. I don't know if will interfere with each other, for instance, with calendar notifications, but, just in case, I froze S Planner using TIB.
Do you like it? Will you keep it?

What is S Planner :silly:

Nice to be able to have core google calendar on a Sammy ROM, yet I really like s planner, something that's lacking on cm roms
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2

S Planner is optimized for s pen. Specially dragging and moving the item. But google calender not allow me the same. it is better alternative in non touchwiz N7000 ROM

i'm with paranoidandroid and using google calendar, best calendar app, even if you have s planner

In S-Planner I can see the labels
I tried Google Calendar. I Didn't like because the month view shows colors but not the labels of the events, like S-Planer do.

Yep, for Google Agenda in ParanoidAndroid Rom, I've set 230 DPI for Size and a layout of 600 px, It's awsome like that Forget Suck Planner

I'm using Business Calendar. I think it's brilliant. Very nice layout, especially on the Note. You can zoom the view, which is very nice. Good widgets too.
I bought the app in the end to get rid of the adds, but I think it was during a promotion so I might only have paid 10cents...

Wish someone could mod this apk to run at tab ui on any rom w/o changing build.prop - ie,from within the app itself
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2

I was using S-planner on my old ICS rom, near the end of it I switched back to Google Calendar. You can use both at the same time they don't interfere with notifications or anything.
S-planner looked more pretty. If the one on JB rom works properly I'll probably switch back.

[4.4.x] Working HTC Blinkfeed

Instructions for installing HTC Blinkfeed on Samsung Galaxy s
S4:
1. Download Htc_BlinkFeed_v8.zip
2. Flash it in Recovery
3. Have fun!
For weather widvet on Feed Page, set the Feed Page as Home page and go in settings/accounts and create account. Then go and enable location and it should work.
P. S. After creating weather acc. sync it.
Ok, so now here is a little guide for the users who don't have enough system space.
I am using CM11, and I think I had like 10 mb free on system(With Full-RR GApps) . What have I done? I went into system/apps and I deleted all Google apps(like Gmail, Maps, etc...DO NOT DELETE GOOGLE SERVICES OR GOOGLE PLAY). After that I went in Play Store and I reinstalled all apps that I deleted + Swiftkey. Now go back in system/apps and delete latinIME.apk( I think), it's Google Keyboard(I am not a fan of it). I deleted also some CM apps like Apollo, Terminal Emulator, Whisper Push, Dsp Manager(because I use PlayTube and it won't work with PlayTube) CM File Manager, CM Account... And I had like 100 free mb in system. 
Known issues:
1. Facebook feed
2. Weather app won't work(on clicking on it)
3. Some graphical glitches
*******Update: V8 *******
New flashble zip Htc_BlinkFeed_v8
this is weather and twitter included.
hsp (service pack) permission probrem is cleared and you don't have to remove /system/priv-app anymore
To make Weather appear on Feed page, you need:
1. Set Feed Page as Home page
2. Go into Settings/accounts and create a HTC weather account(sync it)
3. Go to location settings and turn it on
4. Now, weather should appear on Feed page
*******Downloads:*******
Htc_BlinkFeed_v8:
http://www.mediafire.com/?hu9mskraorhro3i
Its a hit and miss for twitter. For me it doesn't work but other have reported to get twitter feed to show, just not open it up. Its safe to flash V8 over V7
!!! IMPORTANT!!! BlinkFeed port is under development. Some features like Facebook feed won't work. Also, there is a little problem with the widgets. Changing density should solve the problem.
Please post some ScreenShots, I can't post because of an error.
