Hello.
I'm thinking about getting a Galaxy S3 for my next phone, and have a question.
You know how the background in all menus is black? Like in settings and any other list, it is always black. I like how it is white on the HTC One X. Is there a way to make all the backgrounds white?
Black just feels like non-gui software to me.
If you install a custom rom you can install a theme

Any other way? I'm not that interested in custom ROMs.
No, I do not believe so.

I don't understand why they still use black backgrounds... Does anyone prefer them over white?

The screen technology uses less power when a black background is present because the pixels do not have to turn on. The HOX uses white because the same is true for LCDs and white

I have a Windows Phone and can easily change from white to black or black to white anytime, easily, as it is a part of the system. I expected Android to have more customization in every aspect. :/ ... Well it does if you count custom ROMs I guess...

Oh yes, with wp7 you can change background from white to black and you have some colors for tiles but that's it... You can completely change the interface with android if you have root access.. Just take a look at cm9, miui and touchwiz.. Then there is sense 4 also now.... Totally different look and feel of all so you should not be disappointed if you gave that a chance

I have Android phones to play with and an Android tablet too.
What I like about WP's type of customization is that it carries it throughout the whole phone including apps you download from the marketplace. You pick a tile color and that is the accent color throughout the whole OS. This makes everything (including apps from marketplace) feel like they fit in with everything else on the phone.
It's just a simple yet a good type of customization.
The only reason the S3 attracted me is the features. Samsung did a really good job making Android a better OS.
I've tried all kinds of customizations on Android except for ROM changing. I try a lot of launchers and themes and new tiles. At the end, I always realize that only the stock UI fits the phone the best, and makes it work like it should. I feel like ROMs would feel like aftermarket software (no feel of stock, which I want). Correct me if I'm wrong.
I personally prefer black backgrounds and I always use very dark backgrounds. I think white menu backgrounds look strange (HTC)

ok I'm going to try something and see how it goes. so if you guys would like something switched out from other themes or roms I'm taking requests. stuff like status icons(wifi, signal, ect) I'm only doing simple editing. so all credits go to who originally made them. please send me links to the original thread of what you will want switched and what rom so the proper credits can be given. and ill give it a try.
JUST A FRIENDLY SIDE NOTE:
I AM BY NO MEANS A THEMER NOR AM I DOING THIS FOR RECOGNITION, I AM NOT A ARTIST, THAT MIXED WITH THE FACT PHOTO SHOP HATES ME IM FINDING IT VERY HARD TO CREATE MY OWN IMAGES(ALTHOUGH IM TRYING MY BEST TO LEARN) ALL IVE DONE IS SEARCHED OUT ICONS SOMEONE MIGHT WANT AND BRING THEM OVER TO A BASE THEME ALREADY MADE. (AGAIN LEARNING IN HOPES TO MAKE MY OWN) ALL CREDITS GO TO THOSE THAT PUT IN THE SKILL AND HARD WORK TO CREATE THE THEMES/BASE THEMES AND ICONS IVE BEEN USING. ALSO PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THESE PROJECTS ARE VERY TIME CONSUMING, AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO GET TO EVERY ONES REQUESTS IT JUST MIGHT TAKE ME A LITTLE WHILE
to give a example, this is what I've done for myself. I am on GorillaSense-DHD-MT4G with his theme. i switched wifi icons with one of Pack's found here http://http://forum.xda-developers.c...d.php?t=852013

well, like i posted in the carbon theme, I like the work you did with combining the two themes (carbon and revolution). However, it would look even cooler with my red and black background to have the highlights (buttons, etc) be in these colors, instead of the bright blue (reminds me too much of cyanogen, really, which isnt my thing at all). Also, I switch between evil's and gorilla's sense roms some, so if its possible to make the theme compatible with both, that would be amazing. however, I do understand youre a budy person, so if this isnt really feasible to do, its cool. Thanks so much for taking the request, and I cant wait to see what you come up with.

Yes, theyre all the same. But when I start theming new files I make a new uninstaller because the previous one doesn't have the new files. I'm changing all my links to mediafire which will make it easier to keep organized and allow folder browsing.

Very nice/elegant brother, great work!
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Though not all the themes have suited my personal taste, I just want to quickly say how utterly impressive it is that you can turn out this many themes for this phone, and that all of them just seem rock solid. The ATRIX community should consider themselves very lucky!
Speaking of my taste, if there is any way you could whip up something like the following, I would be VERY grateful:
I would love to see a theme not too different from the Motorola one in your 1% battery thread, but maybe just with a nice circular battery, black task bar (maybe a little transparent or highlighted. Whatever looks good), and a black-to-Grey transparent notification drop down, similar to the blue one in the stock ROM. To whatever degree possible, I would also like to see black menus (like the menu that pops up when menu button is pressed while on the home screen). I think that would be more in keeping with Gingerbread than the Froyo-like white ones in the stock ROM.
Anyway, I realize you are very busy, and like I said, I appreciate your work, so I'll understand if you can't get to something like this. Just a request
Thanks again!!!

Hello all, I'm new here. I got help from everyone in the Evo 3D Section of XDA for rooting my phone and while I'm here, I may as well contribute, right?
Right! So I've decided to do custom wallpapers for Members of this section (Evo 3D) For now, and if it turns out to be popular, I'll open it up to the entire forum, granted I can find a team to work with. A couple years ago I was GFx mod on some nooby PSP hacking forum. needless to say I picked up a lot of skill in what we like to call "sigs" that we put in the signature section that's show up with our posts. If you like my work, please donate! So without further ado, I present :
Nova's Custom Walls!
How it works:
1. Post below the following:
What character/car/celebrity/phone you want your wallpaper to be based on
Color preferences (If you have them)
Text you may want to include (Usually your name or something)
Any other specifics
2. I'll get to work. Right now it's summer so I have a lot of time so CWalls should be coming pretty fast.
3. I'll Edit the OP with your CWall in the "Gallery", and I'll also give you the option of receiving your CWall by email.
Below is an Example of a wallpapaer that I cooked up in like ten minutes.

Here we go guys and gals! This is the beginning of Eclipse 3.1! This does not have as many features as the 4.1.2 just yet. So chances are if there is a feature that you are missing it will come in a future build. I plan on releasing builds frequently as we progress in a more feature rich build.

Thanks a ton nitro!
Would it be too much to ask to get you to make the tile backgrounds black? Its in /res/drawable/ qs_tile_background.xml in systemui. It has a pressed and normal state.

I'm excited to have the better quick settings as toggles as they should have been from Google. Having them be shortcuts to their perspective settings is dumb. Can't wait to get off work today and try this ROM out!
I installed this a while ago and so far everything is running great, the only thing I noticed is that the changelog shows that it has the Trinity kernel but it does not appear to be there once the ROM is installed.
Edit: The only thing I've noticed is that when playing Need for Speed: Most Wanted the steering is now off about 8-9 degrees to the right, I have to hold the device tilted to the left to maintain a straight line while driving.
Edit 2: I got the steering issue figured out and all is well.

Yeah I want the theme chooser back, PA doesn't have it yet and not sure if they plan on adding it. There would be some stuff unthemed till an update though(of the theme), like quick settings, whether the theme chooser needs to be updated I don't know.

Hi thanks for a great ROM.
I got FC when trying to change type of clock used during 'daydream' just wanted to let u know.
Quick q - would it be possible to implement support for apple magic mouse gestures into future builds of eclipse?
Thank u again for your time and your great work.

Nice to see 4.2 ROMs pop up here and there.
But considering all the complaints about the stock version, how's the battery life and performance? What about screen calibration?
I know benchmark results don't always have anything to do with real life but still it'd be fun to see some results in Quadrant, Velamo, Antutu.

I hate that clock. If you have HD widgets or beautiful widgets, they have clocks for the lock screen. They look a lot better.

Am I crazy or does anyone (who may have owned one) think that setting wallpapers on the gnex was more crisp? I know the specs are better on the s4 but I just feel like they looked sharper on my nexus? Anyone? Definitely not a complaint, I love this thing. Just thinking out loud.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2
oh god no. the nexus had the worst screen or any cell phone ever.
here's what my nexus looks like. awful banding, terrible yellow tint, insane burn in. I never even power this thing on anymore because it looks just god awful.

My nexus looked about the same, so I'd say no. This screen is the best I've seen so far.

I have both, the Nexus 4 and the Galaxy.
The colors are defiantly MUCH more crisp and sharper on the Galaxy.
When I first switched to the Galaxy (from the Nexus, since I switched to Verizon = couldn't use the Nexus) I thought that the Galaxy's screen looked unnatural, compared to the Nexus, since it was so much brighter....
Having used and looked at both side by side, I choose the Galaxy screen.
Cool thanks for the responses guys. Man that screen burn in is horrible! Lol. I guess maybe just the way some of the wallpapers fit must seem different to me. Again love this thing. Not a complaint

Not on the nexus 4 but the lgog seems sharper

Are you using wallpapers that are 1080x1920 or higher? If it is anything lower than that, the images are being upscaled which will cause them to be soft.
you must be on crack.
S4 looks amazing only one that I think is on par with is the DNA. Resolution is the same and ppi is close. I think DNA colors are a little more realistic but both screens are impeccable for a phone!

hmm
maybe bring it to repair ...
You're probably just using wallpapers that aren't high enough resolution. You gotta remember the awesome 1920x1080 resolution on this thing

Eh use image 2 wallpaper from the market, sometimes android crops the full image, this reducing visual fidelity yada yada.

i can say, though, that touchwiz doesn't set wallpapers as high of quality as the actual image. you can see that the TW wallpaper, when set, is much less sharp, and doesn't show as much full detail as the ACTUAL picture, especially if its an HD pic. that being said, it's not BAD, it's just not as good.
it's how touchwiz sets wallpapers. if you find a wlalpaper in zedge, dl it, apply it, notice how nice it looks....then goto gallery, find that same wallpaper, and apply it via touchwiz's wallpaper selector....it'll be LOWER quality. it just seems that for some reason TW makes the wallpaper quality a bit lower than it really is.
you must be on crack.

I suggest you try this app, and when downloading a wallpaper choose the top highest resolution option. https://play.google.com/store/apps/...=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5uYXN0aG9uLndwY2FzYSJd
No crack. Yeah I think I was just getting the wrong res on the ones I was using. Now I see how it should look. And I love it even more!! Thanks guys

problem is, using nova launcher to set a wallpaper or quick pic worked on my s3 to make it higher resolution.... doesn't work on the s4. so it kinda sucks.

Great screen. I could never use anything but an amoled screen anymore. I'm even thinking about selling my N7. After buying this phone every other screen looks like crap.

I was a little disappointed. I find the colors to be unnatural; over-saturated. Many of the websites I've been used to that were red now look orange. Everything looks crisp, but even with the lowest font setting everything is huge. Maybe I just need some adjustment time coming from HTC & Asus.
