[REQ] [L] Material "Dark" App Drawer / Launcher? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All, tried searching first, but found nothing. Has anyone made a Material "Dark" themed App Drawer/Launcher?
I love everything about 5.0 Lollipop but the white background for the app drawer is a bit stark to say the least. It was really pronounced last night in the dark.
The Google Keyboard has a Material "Dark" skin which works great and is a bit easier on the eyes ... would love to have this applied to the App Drawer also.

I would like to see this as well. I don't care much for the white.

i was just searching for one and stumbled on your thread
doesnt seem to exist yet

Take a look at Patrick Loth's g+, something is coming...

Waiting for it

oh this will be nice when it arrives

Maybe he will change more than just settings

[APP][MOD] WhatsApp Holo v3[03.02.13]

NEWS:
Whatsapp is now officially holo themed! get it from the
official whatsapp website
or from XDA
Good to see you made your own thread, really nice! Love the holo look. I'm with feedback ^^
1. Since you got rid of the textbox (when messaging), maybe you could get it an holo-like background (so you can see what you're writing on different backgrounds). See attachment
2. Replace the "Send" button for the arrows also attached
Hope you can do something with this. Good luck!
BTW. I changed the devider (better alignment) and topbar background (match holo standards better). Throw them in whenever you update :good:

awesome !!! It seems now that the development of this mod is hardware-accelerated
P/S: could you please consider change background color of "No wallpaper" to black ? It will be better matched holo theme . And you could also change "Default wallpaper" . I'm still looking forward to see smooth emoji menu .
Nice!
Nice app, this should be the official whatsapp app!
Thanks!
Nice mod! I'm a gingerbread user, and there's a status bar above the app where it never was.
Is it possible to remove it?

The text in the text box where you type the message is white. Makes it impossible to read. Could you please make it black? Only complaint I have. Other than that everything is awesome! Great job!

Looks nice, but it'd look better if instead of having those Whatsapp bubbles it looked like Gtalk or G+Messenger, with thin lines separating messages.

-go fast to your root file manager and navigate:
-root/data/overlays/preferences folder
-delete all its contents (7files) not the actual preferences folder.

Very well made theme, liked everything especially the tinted backdrop in settings and keyboard. Just had a question of the icon size. They ate too big and look very old style or Android Kitkat style. Wish they were a bit smaller and sleek. Thank you

those icons are Grace UX icons mate, I just reduced the roundness of the original. as for the sizes yeah I think it's kinda big if you use 4x4 grid on homescreen try to use 5x5 and see.. (thanks for input, I will try with smaller icons for system apps and the rest and make an update )
Wowww beautiful thank you
Can you fix the bugs and make more themes like these? Btw i think the blue sym, smiley, enter and back button on the keyboard isn't that nice. Can you make it grey. And the keyboard swipe color too
Thanx
Oh and the blue quick toggles too. I think the blue that is used in this theme isn't very nice. Gray will b much nice o white
only for root!
The theme is only for those with root devices?

I also don't like the color scheme of the keyboard that I made haha it took me a lot of time on that, OK I'll change it, but the blue one on the toggles supposed to be like that 'coz that's the primary color for this theme

nope there is a way for non rooted devices, but I won't tell how to do it, there's a lot of tutorials on this forum already.

guys be sure to restart after applying the theme as there are assets that can only be seen ones the Theme applied fully loaded. I try to include dynamic icons on the clock but it's only semi dynamic (it changes only if the home screen refreshes/restarted)
**and also if someone can post a proper screenshots for this I'll be glad.
(blame the ships wifi, it's very limited)

mate i do not need to tell me how, thanks for your hard work.....you will be great if you can save the theme in wqhd and not fhd resolution!!!!!
Great theme but it is a shame to have to use a 3rd party unknown chinese app that needs to have total control of your device just to run the theme. I really liked the theme but any app like package disabler asking for such permissions is beyond my security concerns. Thank you a lot for the theme, truly a great piece.
I'm having an issue with theme being in trial mode, can only use it for 5 minutes.
By the way, really nice theme, I love it!

I made the Theme even before the Theme Editor is released so I just used the Olympic theme as my base, that one having a fhd resolution only. I tried to migrate my work to the Theme editor and try the wqhd resolution but it looks weird, so I just go with the fhd again sorry.

that's also a bummer, I got rejected as a theme designer @samsung So no chance that you will see this theme on the Store. unless you root your device you have to go with that disabler app if you like to use this.

cant do it on the theme editor so unpack/decompile the theme apk bro, look on assests folder, the one apk with ..aodservice in it, also unpack it. compare yours with mine to modify to your liking, then on your aodservice apk look to the values folder and edit your public.xml delete all id's. just repack/recompile your aodservice apk and put it again on your theme package. then recompile your theme package and sign it. (seems complicated if your not familiar with old school themeing, but if you know what I'm talking about, its very easy )
I was wondering why you did not theme in call ui??

I totally forgot about that,Ö I think there's a bug on the editor that you released because on the output apk, when I inspect it there is no ..inCallui on the asset folder.. I'll fix it, give me time, I'll make it great with note7 icons also on the next update with smaller icons and camera Ala note 7.
*and I think we are really getting near on receiving Grace UX, because that theme editor has so much stuff from Grace UX. little by little they're removing stuff from old touchwiz.

I'm just curious l can you post a screenshot with big icons you're talking about? because it's just the default sizes. I just reduced the roundness of the original grace icons (even with the 3rd party apps)
Nice theme! One of the best I've tried. Keep up the good work!
Edit: moving files from trialson to userson doesn't seem to work for this theme, it remains trial and after 5 minutes I can't use it. Someone with a solution to this maybe? TIA

Yeah, definitely looking for a wholly dark experience. I've already added a dark theme and navbar but still want all dark notifications (just like wunderground)... and gmail etc...

Yeah since 7.0 the Samsung themes don't support changing the color of the notifications. But it should come later.
There is a stock one made by Samsung, its jet black, To get an instant preview, goto "Accessibility" "Vision" and enable "negative colours"
If you like this look, then do the following, first turn off Negative Colours.
You need to be logged into your Samsung account.
Then goto "Settings" "Wallpapers and Themes"
Then "Themes" (at the bottom) "Search" (at the top) for "High Contrast" download and apply this...
Then its like someone cut your circulation - made your world turn black !!
This makes the system menus black, and so for the phone, contacts, calendar, calculator and notification shade.
feedback your thoughts. After smashing the "thanks" button =)
The one I'm using and think is the cleanest is Material Black in theme store.
This is good.

It's a shame Samsung removed the ability to change the colour of the SMS speech bubbles. There's quite a few fairly good grey ones let down by having hard to read SMS!
