How to make Android kitkat recent apps thumbnails larger. - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently downloaded a theme for the new CM11 theme engine and I noticed that the recent apps were larger than the stock. They resembled the new Android L recent apps where instead of application thumbnails they were the size of the new card style recent apps. The animation though was the stock kitkat meaning that the cards were not one behind the other but on top of the other. I really liked it and I was wondering if this is possible to reproduce outside the theme. I googled it but no luck. Any ideas?
By the way this is the theme for anyone interested. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lex.theme.lessugly.colorphobe

Already answered in the general topic. Can someone please remove this thread? Thanks.

[Q] Newb: ADW not updating icons with theme

<fluff>Hi, Newb here. Since I watched the video, I hate myself, and I now know that you all hate me too. Made a major leap from a Samsung A886 (an...ahem..."differently abled" phone) to the SGII about 10 days ago. Currently swapping back/forth between Go Launcher EX and ADW EX after trying every other launcher available. </fluff>
Every time I switch to a different theme in ADW only some of the icons are updated to reflect the new theme, most retain the style of the previous theme and it requires a manual changing of the icons. Any idea what's causing this? Common issue to be lived with?
I searched, but wasn't able to find a specific enough reference.
Are you sure the themes you are trying actually include new icons for all the apps you have?
The one i use has 900+ icons in the pack but i still have to make my own for 5 of the apps that i use.
In most cases there is an existing icon in the new theme; sometimes a couple of different options. Could it be related to what the application is referred to as in the phone, vs the theme?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

[Q] How many icons in use in xe

I would like to partially design my own themed icons but I need to know how many icons are used in total.
A number would be nice, A list of them all would be nicer.
Also a list of dual use icons if they are used such as highlighted version or something.
A note on sizes would help too, it seems you can use smaller icons but presumable some more than others have size restrictions.
That way I can start making my own. Not sure if I could actually create the theme by myself, I am new to the android really. But presumably if the icons were made in advance it should not be difficult.

[Q] A new question! Wondering if this is possible...

I was looking at my phone the other day and though I like the "Droid Blue" color scheme throughout the OS, I thought it might be fun to change it up. Is this possible? Easy, difficult, not at all? Does someone know where to find a procedure to do so? I was thinking of going with a red theme instead, just for something different...
Along the same lines, I read somewhere a while back that it may be possible to change the color scheme on Android 4.4 as an added option by Google within the software - can anyone verify this?
As always, thanks in advance!
4.4 is white and black, thank-goodness they got rid of the blue. Also, you should really take a look at the themes on the Play Store...
Thanks as always for your replies, it's to the point where I await your responses to my posts/questions in the RAZR HD forums
About the themes in the Play Store... Do they typically work with the stock OS / launcher, or do I have to install a different launcher for certain themes I find (as in the Red Light GO Launcher, for the GO Launcher EX app)?
I was also reading recently about the "Themer" (app?) in one of the threads here at XDA - any experience?
Most of the themes require a theme manager. However, you can use Xposed to install themes, if you're rooted. I haven't messed around with Themer or Go Launcher much. Most of the "themes" you can install on a launcher are only icons. The theme manager changes the entire look, just look at some of the themes for CM that are on the Play Store, you'll see what I mean. Xposed has a module that allows you to modify the themes and use them on most ROMs.

Leaked Alternate NavBar Style in Android L

Hi All....
I don't know how many people have noticed, but the Navigation Bar Style in the videos of Google's Material Design Website aren't consistent. They keep changing between the "Shapes" one and another kind which doesn't look familiar.
Maybe the other one can be brought out once modders have a go at L
Btw, the video is in the meaningful transitions section of animation. Its the image gallery video.
I'm actually on my phone and hence can't upload the image...Will do so later
Finally, got a Screenshot of both side by side

[Q] Android Lollipop Navbar?

It seems like this has likely been discussed in detail but my searching yielded no results for the OnePlus One.
My question is, how are you guys going about getting the Android Lollipop navbar on your OnePlus One?
I'm trying to avoid using the theme manager because every theme I've found a theme that changes the navbar to the Android Lollipop version, also changes other colors throughout the interface. My goal is to leave everything else as is and JUST change the navbar.
What's the best way you've found to do this?
