Now there is an update on timescape (which I have only noticed after root) that add the 'themes' option to the menu
This lets us choose out of 5 themes that SE have given us access to.
So, the question is... can we hack in our own background for this theme. I am guessing not as it appears that Timescape now has 5 apks and odex files (one for each theme)
At a guess I would say that we need to build an entirely new version, which won't be possible without the Timescape source code.
This makes me sad. I would love to make my own theme for Timescape.
Ive installed the new timesacpe and I have the theme option but its empty, and iveard when your ib widget view mode that you can re agrrenge them and I cant all I can do is shake them any thoughts why?
L
How do I get the update ?
In theory you could take one of those theme apk and try to edit it. Just a theory.

Hey all,
I'm new in this forum and I think this is the best place to ask my question. I also want you to know that I've searched desperately for the answer and couldn't find anything.
So this is the deal:
I own an Xperia x10a device with TripNMiUI "Iris" 0.4 Gingerbread - MIUI 1.6.3 installed (I cannot give you a link to the guide because i'm a new user...). The thing is that the Theme Manager doesn't work on this ROM so I cannot change themes. Everything works good and the default theme is nice but in the Contacts I can't see any contact name because the name's text color is black on black background.
I have Launcher Pro installed but I don't think it's the problem because even if I switch to the regular launcher the same thing happend. Again, theme manager doesn't work so I cannot configure anything.. I've tried everything in the settings, in the launcher preferences, tried to install themes - nothing works for me.
Thank you very much in advance, any help will be much appreciated.

Anyone?.. I'm really stuck here..
hello i have problem with kik messenger it's work perfectly but when i open the conversation to read the text i wrote or some one send it to me i dont find any thing just a small square and on the left im using deep shining rom i tried to re install the app turn the phone off and then re install it but nothing change i have the same problem any help plz
It's caused by custom accent colors.. I've contacted the Kik dev team many times, but never received a reply. Change your color to one of the Microsoft defaults.
thanks bro it works
No problem it's just too bad they won't fix it.

Ah hah!
Thanks for the info on the custom color bug. I just put a Custom ROM on my focus and Kik was giving me the same problem. Put a default theme color back on and the app works fine.
Something to note, if anyone wanted to get around it, I managed to find a .xap of a (much) older version of the Kik app (v1.1 i think) and it works even with a custom color. I attached it if anyone wants. Beware, it seems to work fine, but feels a little outdated when used to the latest official release for sure.
Thanks again!

I am coming from the M8, and I can not remember if its something I flashed, or just part of the ROM I installed. . . but I had this dark HTC keyboard and really miss it.
Is there a way to get the keyboard on the A9 dark without rooting?
I have a Sprint A9, and so far there is no root yet. :| So I am hopping that there is just a setting I am missing.
Try the themes application
Create a theme at themes.htc.com then go to the app and download your new theme. There's options to change the keyboard, dialler etc when you make it
Can't wait to root my device so that i can theme till my heart's content...
Thanks!
The HTC themer works really good.
https://themes.htc.com/#/prolanding
Does anyone know how to change the Wi-Fi icon in the notification bar ? I tried installing multiple themes, but no changes yet. Not rooted
exactly where are people finding the keyboard at? I see everything but the keyboard on the HTC theme site. :crying:

BLACKED OUT SYSTEM APPS FOR OC7
Major Update. V 2.7 1/26/16
Hello everyone. I have found new love for this device after the OC7 update but I could not stand the overall white backgrounds and ugly touchwiz pastel colors. So I set to theming all the stock apps to be easier on the eyes and I thought I would share them with the community. I will upload a set of flashable zips and some screenshots. Just give me a few to get the thread setup. This is my first thread so be easy on me if things arent perfect but I feel confident in the work Ive done enough to share it with you all. This thread can also be used for learning how to theme our device. I have a wealth of knowledge on xml and smali file locations for most systems apps at the moment. If you want to start creating your own themes I would be glad to help you.
ATTENTION EVERYONE.... I have updated the theme to be more uniform and fixed quite a few little things since the first release. This time around I will be uploading an whole theme package instead of individual zips. I will still put some individual zips for download upon request. Hope you guys like it. There has been a ton of work into making this theme. Feel free to post bugs or color issues if you notice any I will keep updating as long as needed. Thanks for everyones patience while I got the bugs sorted out.
Heres a list of the apps that have been themed:
ClockPackage_Osup

Nice! I Can't wait. One reason why I'm still using the s5 conversion rooted kitkat is bc of the ugly TouchWiz theme on Lollipop.

Thanks I've been going through and perfecting everything. It's going to be much more uniform than the present screenshots. I'll start uploading more individual flashable zips and a link to a complete theme on afh. Also I got permission to upload some of the other layers Ive ported so there will be a lot more apps themed. For eg. Flashfire, adaway, kernel audiator, nova and more. It will be ready soon!

Both. The max upload size on xda is too small for them entire theme so I will post a link to android file host. Thats why Ive been piecing it out in zips. Also If you want just a certain themed app you can grab just that.
Ive been debating on whether to use layers to save size or just release a whole rom. I think I will do both in time. This way the rom can have mods built in. For example having the advanced reboot built in, disabling the cover popups, DVFS and a bunch more. It wont be long Im refining everything in the theme at the moment.
Layer for flashfire
Layer for FlashFire.... Being updated please wait.
Update Coming Soon
Updated the Main Theme to V2. There are alot of theme fixes The in the system ui the dropdown outline now is around toggles and added a slight gradient to the background of pulldown menu. Also slight rounding to notifications
Thank you @Rick1684. This is, quite simply put, excellent work. I'll post a more detailed review when I get the chance, but suffice it to say I'm very happy. I just got the chance to flash the main theme v2, calc and music themes. I'm most pleased. I don't even use the stock music app anymore (I pulled the CM and use that lol) but it looks nice. And I love how all the system stuff is black now, looks great. Keep up the good work :good:
Edit: It makes the Google messages app conversations view black, but not the individual conversations. Again, not complaining, it's really cool

Thank you. Its probally due to the primaryTextColor in colors xml. Give me a few and ill see about fixing it. I dont use that app so I will have to make some changes
Hey @thisisapoorusernamechoice . Let me know what bugs you find. I have no problem making custom changes for our little group here. I looked into the messenger app. Are you talking about the black floating back on top of the actual back? I will have to make a custom version of messenger for you to fix this if so. I would make the floating back dark grey similar to the flashfire layer.
P.S. Im uploading a new version tonight with a few bug fixes. eg. highlighted text white on white fix, added gradient to popups, added outline to bottom popup menu, and more. Also going to start uploading all my custom tw apps soon. Ive got them to a point where Im comfortable sharing.
I will upload a lot of random things Ive themed here soon. eg. package installer, clipboard, documentsui, task manager, mms, and other misc things. I also have layers for a few third party apps that I use I will post them too. eg. adaway, es file explorer, google now, kernel auidtor, nova, layers manager, gmail, etc. Also I have been working on a ported SecSettings from the note. It gives more settings options and the ability to switch grid, list, and tab views on the fly. Its up and working and themed, Im just having an issue with force close on opening battery usage. I have to track down the lib file for the new apk. I might put it on android file host to if anyone wants to try it let me know. Most everything works if you can live with a few bugs until I get them sorted out.
Another project Im working on is creating a customsettings.apk that can change the main theme color. Basically everything thats blue in my theme will be able to be changed on the fly hopefully. Im still in the early stages of development and to be honest. So be patient please. I want to have it setup with a color picker so the theme can be changed to everyones taste. Along with other mods I found here on xda.
We can also use this thread to get everyones input on what they want in a rom. Im already working on integrating most of the mods you can do with the wanam xposed module. My goal is to use xposed for as little as possible. Try to bake in as much as possible. Please dont be shy if you have an idea, or can help with the development of this rom. Seeing as this is going to be our last update I say we take what we have and make the best of it.
Hi there, new to rooting and this kind of thing so maybe this isn't a bug and just be being dumb. I installed the v2 theme first and when I tried to install the rest of it on flashfire the menu went totally black and I can't see what I'm mounting for the rest of the parts, any ideas?
Edit: I see what I did wrong. I wasn't sure what a layer was but I've got it all figured out now, sorry for wasting your time, love the theme so far!
Edit 2: I can't see what I'm doing in the Layers Manager but I think I got it, still others might have an issue if they cant see like me.
Hopefully last edit: Not sure if it was intended or not but on the volume sliders the "Media" slider is still blue on the circle while the others are now white.

Hey Im sorry about the confusion. Whats happening with layers manager is that they pull their text color from the framework guessing that the main text color is black. But its set to white in the theme. I really wish they and alot of other app devs wouldnt rely on framework for colors they can easily add them in their app. Anyway this is fixed easily by installing a dark layer for layers manager. You can use any of them from the playstore or ill link mine to this post. As far as the volume slider thats still a work in progress. I have to track down whats turning it blue. There is an xml somewhere for the allow high volumes popup. It turns the slider blue and red. Ill try to get that in the next update. Try the 2.3 I just uploaded, I themed the volume slider background.

Hey I just realized that Im using messenger app from teamblackout not the stock one. So If you want google measenger themed you can get it from their thread. I will make a layer for it in time. I think thats the best way seeing as it gets updated alot. Thats one if the really nice things about layers.

No worries man, still a solid theme and everything seems to be in order. I found a fix via the playe store on an app that changes color of the system's fonts (Color Fonts #1) so it looks good on most apps (since like you said most app devs use the framework font instead of their own) and it fixes most issues with a white font on white background. Also the 2.3 update looks good so keep up the good work! Totally stoked to be customizing my phone now and am looking forward to the final version.
