Hey all, I have a theme I love and use on my S6 from the theme store called Rain Drops. Now that i have the S7, I can't find it at all in the theme store. Not sure why, but that's fine... Anyone know if there is a way to migrate it over to S7 manually?
Thanks in advance!

Probably because the ROM is different, the resources are most likely not exactly the same, this would result in inconsistency or incomplete theme applied. It's easier to turn off S6 themes for S7 than making them cross device compatible.
You could potentially patch in the theme resources for the framework/ROM, but it is a long and tedious task to replace resources to make a theme. It would also result in unsigned non-official files being flashed and in the process probably also void your Knox warranty (0x1).
Maybe someone can build the theme for the Samsung store? http://developer.samsung.com/galaxy#mytheme (not sure how exactly one does this.. )

If your s6 is rooted copy the theme apks to your SD card transfer to computer and then transfer to s7 install apk should show up in themes
The theme probably hasn't been updated for MM yet. Once the dev updates the theme, then it should start showing up in the store.

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.
Hello - I have a sprint Note 5 and I recently flashed a rom that is super slim, and does not include the theme store. The rom is no longer being supported so the thread has been closed and I cannot ask there. I love the rom and I am getting insane battery life so I would not like to swap it out, but I would like to find the theme store. What are my options for reenabling it? I've looked for an APK but the only one I can find is the 6.0 theme store APK.
you can try this http://www.droidviews.com/enable-galaxy-s6-theme-engine-on-samsung-galaxy-s4-s5-and-note-4/
Hi juat got a s6 gifted and its mighty fine but need a lil bit of advice, i have a pink tint from botom of screen to the status bar so i gather i need a new screen but as a work around untill i get the funds to do so is it worth rooting so i can use substratum and do a proper system wide dark theme to cover the pink tint as a quick bearable fix.

To use substratum on Samsung phones, you'll need to buy the Sungstratum Addon for $3.
But S6 already has Samsung Theme app which doesn't need root. Download a pure black theme like [Soni] Weyo
http://www.samsung.com/global/themestore/index.html?appId=theme.ideadesigns.weyo&SITE_CODE=africa_fr
Many Galaxy S7 users also have that pink tint issue.
U can root to install a custom rom since it won't receive any major updates. U can try Ultimate Nougat S8+ port v3 by enes.
Otherwise root is not needed!
I bought the sungstratum add on a i want black on apps like google play twitter and whatsapp i only use a few apps and some games
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.
Hey all,
Background: I used to do a lot of messing with my older android phones, flashing custom recoveries, custom roms, nightly builds, etc. but it has been YEARS since I messed around.
I want to try and get back into it a bit, specifically I want to get my S22 Ultra to "look" like a Pixel 7 OS. I know I used to be able to find roms like that for future versions of android or other phones, etc. back in the day but i'm not really seeing much of that type of development now.
So my question is: what is the BEST way to make my phone feel like a Pixel? Is it to use Magisk to edit features, etc.? Are there any sorts of...presets or anything in Magisk? I've never used it. Also, on the TWRP website, they don't have recoveries for the S22u, are there any manually compiled ones?
Sorry, it has been a LONG while since I did anything like this, you can direct me to other threads if things are answered, I would appreciate it!
Thanks!

Hi! thanks for the reply! no, not quite just the icons and such, more like. the settings menu, the pulldown bar, the power options, like everything to be like the phone IS a Pixel
Why would you want to take a $1200+ top of the line smartphone and make it imitate a mediocre Google product? You could have saved a lot of money and time and just bought a Pixel 7!

the pixel 7 pro wasn't out when i got my s22u and just for the sake of trying it tbh, i like the Pixel OS
So you need to find a compatible launcher that imitates the AOSP environment. Good luck.
Lawnchair Launcher imitates the Pixel Launcher with a lot more options...
Been using it for yeeaarrssss (Since I had launch day Pixel)

i'm using lawnchair currently but it's not the full experience. it's still Samsung OS. i'm trying to replace the whoooole experience, but thank you!
#hex theme, lawnchair, kwgt widgets, icon packs and Google apps will be the closest you will get for now.

hi can you elaborate on Hex Theme?
In playstore search for #hex then you can use the aosp theme.

I have to say when I installed beta 1 I had this same problem. For whatever reason it started working again the next update.

Hi hex installer works fine on oneUI 5.1
And using
Hex installer (play store)
Nova launcher (play store)
Good lock (galaxy store)
Pixelful icon pack (play store)
But you will need root or use ADB via pc/laptop
If this is the look you are after

Just a friendly note/warning. If those are your actual IMEIs in your screenshots ypu may want to delete or edit that screen shot. Usually not a good idea to share your IMEI publicly.
