I didn´t feel it was right to put my question on the "general questions about themes"-thread... I actually only want to get directions for a specific theme.
This is my config: Stock 2.3.3 Version 3.0.1.G.0.75 without any Bravia or xLoud... Rooted and xRecovery 3 installed.
I Would like a theme that does not have any SE Blue tinted background in the menus, dialpad, messaging and other places. I would like it to be black or perhaps dark grey (as I have seen some themes have). However... the only one I have found was made for 3.0.1.C.0.75 and as I understand also for Bravia or xLoud (I think it´s called) I tried it but I ran into a bootloop.
So... can anyone point me in the right direction to a theme that is close to what I´m after? And if possible as close to Stock as possible but with all the blueish backgrounds replaced with a more discret dark color (or perhaps black).
I really wish the X10 had the same possibilities as the Arc 2.3.4... with a themechanger. One theme there has all backgrounds black.
I have glanced at several other ROM´s but I don´t wanna loose the SE camera and so on... also the stability.
Best regards...

Search for themes in the themes and apps forums! There is actually a black theme somewhere over there for stock 2.3.3... Also, you can flash the theme manager along with the other apps from 2.4.4.. There is a thread with the apps somewhere in the themes and apps forums aswell

Made it myself...
I just replaced the background images by opening the framework-res.apk and SemcGeneralUxpRes.apk with 7zip and replaced them... pushed them on to the phone and "viola"

I just installed the black HTC theme on my pro and i like the fact that its turned black on lmost everything, but i dont like that glossy look and some other things.
Isnt there just the orginal theme files, in black?
No changes in bottuns and so on, just the colors?
EDIT: Like the screenshots pulpoff first made in his theme tread.
Thanks in advance
You have the grey theme with less glossy http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=750009 But still not exactly the original theme in black.
Yeah thx, but now im on 2.1..
hello, after countless hours of searching, and even trying to figure out how to edit a current theme, i'd like to request a theme and hope that someone can help. Basically, i can't stand black in a theme. I'd like to get a theme that's like the Frost theme for froyo, (white and black), but white and blue instead. the only thing i'd like black on it is text. Background colors white, everything else bright blue. I would appreciate anyone willing to help, or anyone that would be kind enough to help me either edit a theme to these colors, or get me on the right track to making my own. Thanks in advance.
I couldn't tell if making/editing a theme was completely what you are tyring to do from the wording, but if not there is a pretty cool one on the market called Honeycomb Wall. Its live honeycomb and for $.80 donate you can change most of the settings on it, not to mention you can use ADW/LP/Go Launcher and various other tools to maximize your personalization. Otherwise just check out the post on How to MetaMorph/Theme:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591329
Just look around there is plenty to help you. Good luck.
RE::SORRY. I didn't notice the GB at the beginning for some reason honeycomb just was lodged in my head, But either way you will find plenty on the Market and XDA Theme forums to help.
If you're talking about a theme chooser theme.. the Orion theme is a nice one that I think get's pretty close to what you're wanting

I am using CM7 for the first time, and I really love the ability to change the themes with just a few clicks. I have used a lot of different themes but none of them ever seem to theme Google Talk. I have even used the metamorph mods to change everything else. I have searched all around and still have not found an orange themed Google talk. At the risk of being flamed for asking for something does anyone know of an orange and black themed Google talk to match the orange octane theme.
Mine changes all the time switching to gingerblur theme and galaxy S theme.
Probably redownload the file. And really install it
Thanks for the help but tried that and it still didn't theme Google talk
Are you rebooting after installing the themes? Most themes need to be reboot to fully take effect. You can d/l "notification restart" free from the market so you don't have to reboot every time you apply a theme
This was built on the stock Verizon wireless 4.1.2, might work for others aswell but untested
YOU MUST BE ROOTED AND HAVE A DEODEXED ROM, you have been warned.
I am not responsible for any damage to your phone, you assume all risk.
I have been a longtime MIUI user, as I enjoy their simple theming techniques....since there is a lack of development of MIUI for our phone, I set out to make the stock rom look as cool as my old phone (never been thrilled by the stock ics text icons in electric blue or any other color, we have these cool arse phones with unappealing graphics....time to change that!). After getting close to 3 days of battery with heavy use (and I mean heavy use, backups, flashing and playing games) and Bluetooth not dropping off in my car while listening to music, I thought it was time to stay stock. (please do understand this is in no way shape an attack at the awesome devs who make roms for us, ad im sure ill eventually start flashing custom roms soon)
lots of the default plain arse black background have been changed to a more appealing dark brown.
Here we go,
What we have here is a BuuF Theme, that still a work in progress.
This theme looks best with the Buuf golauncher or ADW theme and lockscreen theme, however I plan to theme the stock Moto launcher and unlocker.
so far here is whats themed:
contacts
deskclock
geniewidget
gmail
parts of homescreen
messaging
mot camera
moto email
phone
settings
systemUI
framework
apks added and themed:
gallery goolge with 4.2 camera (with working photosphere) <---this will change your device name in build.prop to work properly
miui apps added and themed:
MiFileExplorer
MiNotes
MiuiDeskclock
MiuiMusic
mods included:
1% battery
dsp manager
photosphere
I also have made the corresponding BuuF GoLauncherEX theme and a BuuF GoLocker theme I will be releasing shortly..
the clock in my screenshot is a beautiful widget witht he andromeaBuuF theme applied (I plan to make my own to match this theme in the future)
as this theme is a work in progress, things can and will constantly change...
Please do comment and ask for requests, but please do know I work full time and have a family, so be patient.
credits to: paul Davey - mattahan for the awesome artwork
Bignadad for his jellybean theme I cherry picked the 1% mod from
anybody and everybody who has ever done any work on any phone for us crackflashers to enjoy!
and whoever else I missed.
my credit is only copying and pasting icons where needed, and little reading to modify the build.prop and such
Releases: uploading to my fileserver as it was over this sites allowable file size

i'm a long time both buuf and miui fan (it even sounds compatible :cyclops and enjoyed/abused your work in various forms - importing/exporting, modifying for various devices, etc. like yourself, working hard (to the best of my knowledge <> which is rather poor) to customize my phone not loosing performance.
1. is there any chance that you make an updated buuf theme for TSF Shell (launcher)? i can fw the launcher and existing buuf theme/shell .apks if you decide to do it.
2. couldn't find any of your work for go launcher ex - went through all the themes/locks last night and there's no sign of bytegobuuf!?
thnx for yor work, there are people who really appreciate it!

i used the cf auto root and NH7 so still 4.4.4
im looking for some suggestions from the experienced users of either app or themes based on my needs.
im vision impaired and deaf so sound is whatever but vibrations are great if customized. as for vision, i work best with the dark themes. mainly like everything is a black nackground with light colored text. even google chrome. i can do it on my pc but not phone and i did try firefox but altho it worked, not very stable to use. i do tend to lean towards go launcher bc of editing how i like and still simple icons. nothing fancy or whatnot. but another app would be like a note pad where background is black, font is white but you can change the size of the font. ive tried blackbook app but its perfect if i could just change the font size. can anyone suggest any dark themes or apps that could benefit me? im not to ready to update to lollipop yet but if its the only way to get certain things i need, i will but for now i would like to try to stick with android 4.4.4. thank you in advance to any help and advice!

Hi , have you tried to change your font size ? Go to settings/device/font/font size and you can change your font size. Or you can change style also while your there 5 fonts that come with the device. Or you can go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2752379 download and install this APK and you have 500 different fonts to choose from.
