So I was going through the exposed modules last night and came across Holo Themer. I went to the thread link on xda and saw a guy was using it on his G2. So I installed it and was able to get the Settings background to dark, but cant manage to get messaging and dialer to do the same. It's a cool app to tinker with. I have always liked the dark UI's on my Galaxy devices and want to do the same on the G3 without putting a custom ROM on. If anyone figures out any more to do with this module, as far as the UI, please let me know.

I'm visually impaired using the DroidX 4.5.605 rooted.
Up until this Verizon update I've found my phone usable, but I need to do something to restore the usability I once had.
1. I would like a high contrast interface, though some have suggested black backgrounds and white text, I would also be ok with the opposite.
2. I would like to double tap to open items. Right now areas like SETTINGS open on signle tap.
Can someone recommend a theme and / or a ROM that would allow me to have both of these features?
TIA,
Cm7 has some themes that are black and white I run .602 gb cm7 rom works great

I love cm7 themes and roms! Def need to take a look there!
So I searched up and down for my answer, could not find, if im THAT blind I do apologize lol.
I have rooted my HTC Inspire 4G (At&T) with Ace Hack awhile ago and just pretty much used it just to change fonts...I was looking for some themes to install onto my phone but I was wondering if the themes had to be spacifically for Ace Hack? Also, I know you can change fonts and remove stock apps ect. with a rooted phone but can I change font color or would that depend on the app I install?
Thank you for taking time to read and/or answer!

wait, wut? The Ace Hack Kit has nothing to do with changing themes. Basically you have some options. Some ROMs have themes built specifically for them. ARHD for instance has some themes that can be flashed. You can also use the UOT kitchen to customize a theme for yourself, it may not be as inclusive as a true theme but it does a good job at getting almost ever aspect. You can also use a different launcher, i.e. Go Launcher or something different, and they have themes for each launcher.
Fonts can be changed by using the font installer app. the color of the font depending on what font you're talking about can be changed with UOT kitchen or with a theme you use. Hope that helps!

haha not a problem! yeah ROM specific themes are few and far between, especially since the ROMs are updated often which sometimes causes changes in framework which in return causes the new to update the theme. You can always try ADW launcher, they too have some themes. If you aren't opposed to CM based ROMs I know they have a theme chooser app as well. UOT though seems to be the best option short of learning to theme that gives you the most customizable experience.

I think the only stock apps I've replaced are the launcher, and the browser (Google Now Launcher, and Chrome Beta, respectively)
the stock apps are quite good
I replaced the stock SMS app. Couldnt stand that there was no quick reply. I went to CM sliding from TeamBlackout. But now I'm using 8sms. Has lots of options.... quick reply, dark theme and also options to adjust the LED notification blink speed which helps a lot. Oh and of course got did of the launcher and installed Nova.

since you're rooted,
AdAway (here on XDA)
Xposed (here on XDA)
LG G3 TweakBox (in PlayStore as "G3 TweaksBox" - needs Xposed)
Greenify if you want, but i'm getting decent battery life without it so far (coming from an SGS4)
PlayStoreFixes (Xposed mod- change DPI to show apps that now say not compatible since G3 dpi is so high)
for SMS i'm using Handcent, Nova for launcher
Thanks for all the replys. I will try those. Any good recommendations for notifications on lockscreen. The stock doesn't seem to show all the apps notification on lockscreen. I dl slide lock but there are some things I personally don't like.
I'm a newb. I've got a 'tech support' background, but this is all new stuff to me. I'm amazed at all the amazing work this team has done!
So I eagerly waited for Substratum to work on unrooted Oreo. The day it came out, I got it and Andromeda. And I themed some of my Android OS and was so happy.
Now I'm trying to polish off the parts that didn't get themed, and that's where I'm getting confused. Notifications (after reboot) are black, pull down utils are black. It's awesome.
I was hoping to make Google Now cards go black or dark (don't really care). I can't get this to work yet. I installed O/Pixel Black, Black Stock, and Default Dark. When I start installing various themes, I get errors AND some theme components seem to get disabled.
Just found the "disable other themes" toggle -- so I tried that. That seems to restore me to where I was. But I haven't been able to get Google Now (cards) from Google Launcher to go black. Also can't get Chrome black.
If anyone can help me get insight -- which components should I be theming? Am I missing something else? THANKS SO MUCH!!!

Very nice and cool
I run a samsung galaxy s7 (qualcomm), and I run the nova launcher as a replacement for the default touchwiz home launcher. I have only one theme downloaded to my phone (Purple Tech by prapas chantavali, from the samsung theme store/app), and I like it, mostly for the purple color. Most themes I saw on substratum and here are dark themed but with barely any purple; and for what themes not on substratum, they say "its trial only, but use root explorer, move/delete some stuff, and its free"
TL;DR for a person who has a qualcomm s7 and therefore can't root or flash, what really are my choices for themes. and for those hosted on either substratum or here, are any of them purple and free? free themes with no ads are really preferred

just buy it on Theme Store.
Hahahaha a very intelligent way to ask for free paid themes xD
Jk.
The only thing that you can do is to purchase it over playstore or Samsung theme store.... Because Samsung is a heavy modified UI most of the themers are selling their themes (for a good reason)
I've been thinking about building themes and starting a thread, I've already tested on my wife's phone, and only takes 2 apks(font/theme).
I'll post my current personal theme, I can do quite a bit theme wise. If your interested. I can explain what I am able to include and exclude.
It's a quick look, but almost all stock Google and Samsung apps are covered, system interfaces included.
Quick note, wanted to add one picture, for anyone that doesn't care for hero amoled. Also, shop wouldn't let me add this picture as an edit.
Hi, first time posting so no doubt I've probably posted in the wrong spot, wrong format or given a remedial, uninformed, dumbarse response, or a combo of everything all at once.
No biggie, considering my noob questions about rooting are coming next - I'm also Aussie so that will be making me laugh for years to come - but if a lack of themes are your only issue, go get yourself a copy of KLWP and KWGT and make your own with relative ease. Or download free presets from G+ and PlayStore or buy some of the really sweet presets from the PlayStore....
OK, now to go find a stupid arse spot to post questions about rooting. Lol...rooting :laugh:
there is an app called themeGalaxy. create ur own theme.
