Well first you would have to decompile the APK. The coding for dark mode is probably in an XML file....possibly more than one. Most likely is res/layout. Then recompile the APK. There are plenty of tutorials here on XDA in regards to decompiling, modifying/themeing and recompiling apps.

Is it possible to only make the theme selector available at the settings menu ?

That would require even more coding. Best bet is to probably just wait for Google to add the function into the application

Hey all,
Please ping me or otherwise correct me if I'm mistaken, but I've searched for a very long time for the answer to my question :
I need help theming tweaks.apk, specifically the images shown in the sliders. I'm a n00b when it comes to theming, but I'm also not afraid of possible bricks and the like. If someone has any info, it would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!
BUMP anyone??
if you're trying to theme the sliders and thngs on the lockscreen then you don't have to theme the Tweaks.apk you have to look in the framework-res.apk as that is where all the lockscreen pics are in

for tweaks it was a good question but for themes there's a lot of guides and sources u can check for that on google man so try searching a bit too. eh!
but I'll answer it, to check what a theme changes just open up the file of the theme u flashed and check to see what files were changed and you'll know where to check.

Hi,
I was wondering If i could share some of the apk which I have modfied (customised) here on this forum.
If this is possible could someone point to me the right forum section (maybe a link) where I could upload the modified (customised) apk.
The reason why I wanted to share was because I gained a lot from this site and was hoping to share whichever apks I have modified. I have been modifying Samsung S3 Jellybean 4.3 apks (individual apks) and would like to upload them just incase someone would like to try them too.
Thanks

Almost Welcome
Am unable to upload the apks because outside links are not accepted till one completes 10 posts....
Also for some reason just cannot access this forum without using proxy website. This has been happening for the past few days. I can access this forum only via proxy website not directly. And if I use a proxy website, the insert link, attachement buttons etc which are used for compiling a post do not work......

i just follow this tut TUTORIAL - Theming.
he want to made his bg from black to white, so i just revert his method. if you want to try, just find word " .LIGHT " and delete them. not necessary to change the html text code.

You decompile the apk packages, change what you want and recompile.

There is no need to decompile and recompile. You can just copy/paste same named png-s in .apk/res/drawable nodpi or drawable xxhdpi for our device. That works for all apps from factory image.

Recompilation is required to edit things like XML. Signing properly is also important.

Whith respecr dear Lethargy! You don't need to decompile and signing properly stock app. For example: if you want to change almost all of UI, you just have to change images in framework-res.apk. You don' t need to do things mentioned before. When I was on Xperia I made this way too UI look like AOSP as possible.
I think that for noob is enough to know that. But off course, if you are UI designer and developer that isn't enough.

For replacing a .png it might be okay, but in no way are you going to modify anything else that way. Recompiling is the PROPER way to do it.
So in short someone like me I'm out of luck

If your launcher supports it you can hide the navbar then attempt to use something like Zooper Widget to imitate them on the bottom, but other than that, you have to recompile SystemUI.apk.
Wouldn't I need it for when I'm in apps
