Fixed the text issue...gray boxes with white text

Looks good so far, but can't read any in-app menus (hit the menu key in email for example) and the default messaging app looks messed up... tried with ec10 pnp rom

ill have to make an edit then...is it all dark or all light...the text?

the text is all black, blends in with the background. In the messaging app, the bubbles aren't quite black, so you can just BARELY see the text. White text in both of these scenarios would make this look just about perfect in my eye.

try it again...i tested this 1...should be gray boxes and white text
and thanks....dont forget to thank the people who originally made and ported this theme oover to the sgs phones

Same issue still... For example:
1.) Press the "Menu" soft key (from a home screen)
2.) Press the "More" option
Can't view text
Also, in notifications, it's white text on a gray background. Any possibility of making the text a little more visible?

It's all covered in this reference; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831715
For the secondary menu i'ts under "expanded.menu" or something like that, for some reason that one won't work if called with @/color so what you actually need is the original code that was there (something like "?SmallTextInverse", and just remove the "inverse" from the end, and that will change the text color properly.)
For notifications, you'll have to edit XML located within the Layout folder, i'ts listed in that guide too. Let me know if you need help!

love it, but conversations in default messaging app are also difficult to read.

It goes away because it's just a notification icon not ongoing application icon .i will change it to icon for ongoing application so that ill will remain after pressing clear all...but i don't know as am new to all this,whether it will consume more memory if application is running in background when i change it to icon for ongoing application instead of simple notification icon..correct me please

Can I request some more things?
1. Sony Ericsson logo (The green one)
2. A Sony logo
3. Some more options (add custom text, for example, when the status is dropped.
4. Higher res images: I don't knows if it's my eyes, but it doesn't seem to be so good. Im using a 720p phone, which turned to be standard for high end phones. Try to include higher res images, not that it even requires a bigger app.
Sorry if I asked too much, just my opinion.

[APP][4.4+][Modded] Lollipop Messenger (SMS/MMS)

New Google (SMS/MMS) Messenger from Android 5.0 found to work great on devices running android 4.4+ (source: http://www.gizmobolt.com/2014/10/21/download-google-smsmms-messenger-app-from-android-5-0-lollipop/), rooted or non rooted.
This version (1.0.041), has one little bug in some devices; "search" button does nothing.
Also, a lot of people (including me), found the yellow "plus" button very ugly, so I changed the color of the "plus" button and cleared the (non working) "search" button.
P.S.1 If you want "search" button to be visible, download attachment from post#6.
P.S.2 ONLY non rooted users, could try files from post#29.

Not installing on non root Z2

Only problem with using this on 4.4, depending on the color of your notification shade, if you get multiple messages at once, the text becomes black on black. If it's a single conversation text, it's white. Think you can take a peak at color codes?
Edit: Screenshot.

I don't have this problem. Notification text is dark gray and it stays dark gray even on multiply messages.
If you use other than the stock theme maybe it's themes problem.

Don't have theme chooser.
It happens when getting a message from two people, so " 2 New Messages ", is shown. When not expanded, it's a grayish white, and when expanded, it all goes black.
Think you can share a screenshot? If I see it's different for you, I may have a clue at the black on black.

[THEME][MOD][6.0.1] TW Customizations For Note 4 N910V

First off I want to give a HUGE thanks to @supergrobi94 who pretty much did all of the heavy lifting for this project. He designed the apks and flashable zips that we are using and gave us permission to modify them for the Verizon variant. His work can be found here: Thread
I've been working with @kevintm78 to get some modified system apps with custom icons and such. I've spent a lot of time to try and alter the icons and spacing to make sure that it looks the way I want on the note 4.
If we decide to work on other themes we'll be posting them here. I'm hoping to get a dark background version of the settings and some darker notifications, but we'll see how it goes since apparently that's pretty hard.
I've attached a few screenshots below to give a taste of what it looks like and you can download it while we work on other themes. The first two are for this mod.
I've tested it on PaulPizz's CPF3 ROM v3.2 and it works fine, but it is based off of the N910F so there may be some bugs. Make sure to do a backup before flashing and understand that you are flashing this at your own risk. I will try to support it, but honestly I'm a little out of my league here. There is a lot of trial and error with the Samsung apks because they make them proprietary. Anyway, Enjoy!
Download Link: AOSPTheme
Themes for ROMs with Theme Store: ThemeStoreThemes
Recently I have been enjoying the FullNote7Build2.1 from @chevyrhoads and have decided to make some themes for it. @Shane_Picardo has uploaded a copy of the ThemeSoftware (it's a version behind, but it works) that I've used to create this theme. I've been looking into changing the status bar icons, but I don't have a lot of hope since the file types for the Note7 port have changed again to some proprietary format that I probably won't be able to decode. I haven't touched the icons since I use Nova Launcher with Icon packs, but I have changed many of the system apps to be a darker theme. I've attached the preview images so you can see if you like it (the ones that start with theme). There is a limit to what the theme editor can do, but if there are requests let me know. I'm more interested in AOSP-like themes, but if another idea interests me I'll look into it.
Theme Store Instructions:
1) Download the appropriate apk (Note 7 ports have a different apk than Note 5 or S6/S7 ports)
2) Install apk, but do not apply
3) Navigate to /data/overlays/jsonfiles/trialjson and cut the file with the name of the theme you just installed
4) Paste the file in /data/overlays/jsonfiles/userjson
5) Navigate back to /data/overlays and delete the preferences folder
6) Reboot and apply the theme
7) Enjoy!
Thanks:

I don't currently know of a way to conditionally remove the icon. I'll look into it though. I actually prefer it there so I know what connection I have for mms and the like.

One thing that I could do is have an upside down signal bar that would change based on your signal (1x=1 bar, 2g=2 bars, 3g=3 bars, 4g=4 bars) right above the cell signal bar so it doesn't take any extra space, but I'd have to remove the up/down data arrows for mobile data. Thoughts?
Also, are there other icons that people want up in the status bar? I can change bluetooth, NFC, alarm clock, and other icons if someone has better suggestions.
Thanks!

Hello @shadeau I was wondering if you could make a complete transparent theme with the wallpaper in your screenshots. One that would make the dialer, settings and messages transparent with the homescreen wallpaper as background in everything? That would be awesome. Also with dark blue fonts. If that is asking too much I completely understand, as I really don't know myself how much time and effort has to go into this. I tried installing the Samsung Theme editor myself with my internet turned completely off before opening it but I still couldn't get it to work. Thanks for your time.

Okay, so the theme editor won't actually let me specify a transparent background unless it's an image file. Even if I specify a completely transparent image file as a background it just means that you see through to the very back of the app instead of to the background (so you still see black). In short, this won't work as you intended, but if you have a background that you want for every screen I could put that image as the theme background. It might be easier to try to get the program running on your computer though so you can play around with different styles and see for yourself.
If you want help with installing it I can see what I can do to assist. Reply here or PM me if you're interested.

Ok cool. If you could make the background image for every screen that would be good. The darker one from your screen shots would be great. Would that work? Thank you again for your time and doing this.

Well I just installed the Theme editor again and before opening it I went into windows firewall to block it but I don't see it listed anywhere. I looked for Theme Editor and Samsung Theme editor. Is it listed as a different name? Thanks

Ok cool. If you could make the background image for every screen that would be good. The darker one from your screen shots would be great. Would that work? Thank you again for your time and doing this.

You need to manually add it. Open windows firewall, select advanced settings, select inbound rules on the left, select new rule on the right, select program and click next, find the program in the program path selection area, select block the connection and click next, select all of the things listed for when it should apply and click next, name it something like Theme inbound and click finish.
Repeat the process for outbound rules. Hope that helps.

I want to thank you again for your help, but I still can't get the Theme Editor to run on my windows 10 pc even after blocking it in Windows firewall. Don't know what else to try.

I've currently got the theme editor running on two windows 10 computers just fine. Could you be more specific on what is failing when you try to run the program? You might want to download it again too.

I would uninstall the program completely, re-download it, and try installing the newly downloaded file. I didn't get that error with either one of my installs. The firewall fix makes sure it doesn't try to get updates. It might help to disconnect from the internet while you're installing it too just to see if it helps.

I have 3 aqpk's, two are black and blue and one is black an red - notifications. I'm using one of them with Swift Dark and they don't interfere with the Substratum Theme.

No, you just install the apk and reboot. If you're not happy menu>settings>apps>uninstall>reboot and you're right back where you started.

Just download the apk you want, place it on your sdcard or internal storage. On your phone go to my files>sdcard or internal storage>tap the file and select install. It will say something like are you sure and you will take you to security>unknown sources> push that tab to the right and go on with the installation. When and if you want to uninstall go to menu>settings>apps>look for the apk you installed and then uninstall it.

Here's a beginners guide for you, if you don't know this by now maybe you should buy an "Apple Iphone."

Don't try to seem very wise. Begginer. I just asked for screens to avoid possible system ui crash as it often happened after such unknown apk.
Closed. Don't answer. Thanks.

For non-rooted, use modded samsung theme.
Check out my theme thread.

Saw the non - rooted method. Wondering what the rooted method was? Searched and couldn't really find anything except rebuilding the theme. Which I think is the non rooted method.

Rooted method would be recompiling framework-res and push it back in system.
The colors.xml need to be changed.

*- notification_title_color = main notif text color
- notification_info_color = affects time & " X new messages" header
- notification_text_color = notif content color.
- notification_default_color = affects notif action buttons & non-accent app name & icon color

eNubiX is really nice, thank you!
I think I should try the red one but I am now sick of restarting my phone. I do agree that you should have provided screenshots.
Thanks again for sharing them!

I think I know why no one wanted to put up the screenshots. These APKs will darken your notifications, but does not actually change them. They are still all the black background with hard-to-read dark grey writing and teal accents. I was really hoping for notifications with a black background with white writing and red highlights.
What the APKs did do was change my settings area, but everything does that. I'm attaching the 3 screenshots so everyone can see.
I hope we get a true way to change the background, text and accent color on our notifications some day. It seems so simple it should be part of stock Android.
