[Q] Thunderbolt - how do you remove a theme from a rom? - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have tried several roms and found 1 I want to remove the theme and port to a different rom. Does anyone know how to remove just the them files from the rom so I can install them in a different rom?
Thanks!

Which theme from which rom are you trying to port?

Reflash the rom after u wipe.

theme
I don't want the whole rom. I just want the Virus theme. I like how all the icons line up at the bottom (notes, phone, mail, etc) but I don't want favorites, etc blocked. I like LTS rom better. I also don't want the virus start-up animation. Would also like a 6 bar signal status and if possible. Any suggestions?
Thanks

more there
a six bar signal status would also be nice since I am usually in a sketchy area.
thanks again.

Themed Blur launcher-Request

Hi All,
Since most of us have been moving to US Tmob and GB froyo, the blur launcher has been tweeked and made to work like a gem. It is really smooth and I do not find necessity to go to Launcher Pro.
Walter had previously put out a themed blur launcher like this one for his MS2 ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743372
Unfortunately it cannot be used on these froyo builds. Can anyone please theme the stock launcher please?.
I tried many times on all froyo builds to make the themed launcher work but could not do so. Walter had given a zip file to install it from CWM but that kept bricking the phone and I had to use alternate launcher to keep the phone running and flash an sbf.
Can anyone do that pleaaase ?
Im with you on this one too. I actually like the original blur launcher but it would be nice if you could actually change the assignment of the right hand button to go to text messaging or setttings etc..
Wondering where walter is these days. He can help if he sees this.

[Q] Alright, Need to make a decision regarding my main ROM.

So right now I'm running CM7.1 nightly, and I'm in love with it. I went to UnNamed for about 2 hours a week ago, and I couldn't deal with the lack of customization. Now, this is my first android phone in a while, so I was still learning the new apps and tricks.
Now I realize I can change the lock screen using WidgetLocker. The stock lock screen is the MAIN reason why I'm not on a stock rom such as S8. I've heard nothing but great things about Mikey, and I really want to try out his rom.
So now that I know I can change my lockscreen (from the tacky and rather stupid looking stock, to a more customizable sophisticated one) I just want to know a few things.
Flashing Themes. In CM7, it uses it's own Theme engine and I can download themes from the market and flash em via the Theme Chooser App. For these stock themes, I have to download from a dev thread on here, or is there a "database" of themes?
CM7 I can customize the status bar to display The Full carrier name, wifi signal strength in dB or bars, etc. Can I do that with stock roms? How about Battery Percentage? I read that the circle percentage app/mod didn't work with S8. Is that true?
Finally, How is the battery life in S8 compared to CM7?
Thanks for your help guys.

[Q] Speed Rom 8.0, transparent notification bar - How to disable?

I am back to Speed Rom 8.0 and absolutely loves everything it has to offer. There are minor bugs which can be dealth with if you want a stable, fast and battery saving rom.
Only thing which annoyes me (not ROM itself) is transparent notification bar and status bars. How can I go back to default like in Sense 3.6?
Is it possible? I did search and didn't find anything useful. Its probbaly becasue everyone likes transparent but not my style
20+ views and no reply?
Well while playing around I found settings to change background to any image (my fav all black), its in app called Energy Tweaks installed with SpeedRom.

Glad you found a fix for your issue.,. I have yet to find one for mines.. Do you have any idea how to get the stock battery icon? i don't like looking at the percentage
Did you try flashing the stock battery icon zip ?

Your best bet would be rooting, using the Xposed Framework and something like the HK Theme Manager or Xtheme Engine to make significant changes to the look of the system. These tools work well on most devices, but it can be hard to theme stock HTC roms as they have a very different theming structure vs most devices and generic theming tools can only go so far. Other than that, best you could do without a rom (or root) would be a different launcher that either hides the status bar or comes with it's own (have only seen an iPhone looking launcher with that function) or hide the status bar and figure out how to make something like Zooper Widget to help create your own little section at the top for the clock and battery status - though this stuff would only work on the home screen.
If you REALLY want to change stuff, the best option is a rom and there's really not much getting around it without compromises.

[Q] Is there any way i can substitute systemui and framework on Stock JB?

Well, hi! After some months in which i've done a lot of things to my stock rom (or testing other custom roms without enough satisfaction), i've decided to build my own, using the official samsung base. The thing is, i wanted it as something special and personal for me and my friend, we don't pretend to distribute it we just want it to be fast, reliable, debloat a bit, extend with xposed and mainly, to THEME it if possible.
We like stock because of all the samsung features but we miss the possibility to switch between themes as in CM and MIUI, so i wanted to know...
There is some modded systemui, framework-res, phone, settings, etc i can use to replace the stock ones? If so, would those new apk be able to show the interface themed elements CORRECT when i try to apply a theme using Xtheme Engine?
I've already tried Xtheme engine in our actual state and it just changes some icons in the app drawer and some icons in the notification bar..., the appearence of the expanded notification panel, Settings and background elements visible for example...in Root Explorer..., remain the same, but want the system apps to be able to accept xtheme engine, because that would be really handy instead of modding those apks each time we want a new look
And by the way, ehm, i also wanted to know...where is "lockscreen" located? it is part of systemui?
Well, thanks a lot in advance!:fingers-crossed:
