[Q] Stock theme for custom rom - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I am new to android world, i used apple before and was quite good at jailbreaking and stuff, but it has a lot less options than android. so i switched to samsung galaxy s3 gt- I9300
I rooted my phone, and made a clockworkmod recovery... i think its a backup.. and then i installed custom roms liquidsmooth, and paranoidandroid. both havinig base firmware as 4.1.2... But then again i switched back to Stock because i dint like the all black and blue stuff in all the custom roms, though i appreciate the options that have been added, its like having a feeling of me controlling my cell rather than the company who made it. but i dont really liked the blue wifi icon and battery icon and all the other radio buttons in blue... so
my question is
1. Can i have the custom rom i.e liquid smooth or any other with the UI as the stock one?
2. or is there a package or a theme that would change the layout of my custom rom to the stock layout ( by layout i mean all the colours and the stuff) but wont affect the options that developers have put in the custom roms.??
I would really appreciate your help.. and really sorry if i said something wrong. coz i am new to android. thnx alot in advance

Yes if you change the relevant files .
2. or is there a package or a theme that would change the layout of my custom rom to the stock layout ( by layout i mean all the colours and the stuff) but wont affect the options that developers have put in the custom roms.??
Themes and apps is where you look .
You would be far better off reading the faqs and guides first

[HELP] Guidance needed to gift a "pseudo"ROM to my girlfriend

Hi everybody, I and my girlfriend both using Optimus Black mobiles; I'm on Cyanogenmod7 and she is on stock (rooted) rom for ease of her use. Now, her birthday is coming this February, so along with regular stuffs i've bought for her, i've decided to gift her a rom. ( ). The basic idea is, i create a custom cm, then make a nandroid backup of it, and then flash it on cwm on her mobile.
Since i'm using android more than a year, i know a little bit of modding. So i've already themed my device to suit her with some modifications such as transparent status bar, center clock, a special theme on uotkitchen, themed adw launcher with custom icons and all that..... now i just need the following answers from senior members here to complete my pseudo-rom experience of gifting her.
1) In About phone section in settings, how to change the name of Mod version and Kernel version? I mean, it shows Cyanogenmod-7.2.0. xxxxx things, and i want to change it by her name ( ), like we see in custom roms by various devs. So in which system files i need to do the editing for that?
2) How to change the Android version? Of course, i mean, android version of cm7 will be 2.3.7 , but, since she doesn't even understand what froyo/gb/ics is, i want to change it to her birth date ( ) to make her happy. So, is it possible ? And how ?
I hope other guys might also like this idea ! .... Your help will be very much welcomed. Thanks in advance..
well for one i do know that you can spoof the OS version number. dunno how tho

[Q][noob] advice on UI customization?

Hey all.
I recently bought a Galaxy S2 and am in search for a custom ROM (or even a good App) that will allow me as much UI customization as possible..
For instance I want to be able to control which icons to hide on the status bar, which buttons (and in which order) appear in notification tray, how long the "long press" should be.. and other little tweaks like that.
Most of the stuff I'm looking for were part of the Cyanogen Mod 7 i used to have on my Nexus One. But I was unable to flash it on my Galaxy.
Suggestions?
GB roms something like JKay mods in the Themes section .
jje
Try cm9 good for custumization,and u can get tht nova,go,tfs,zeam etc for changing ui.....cheerz an happy flashing an do make a bckup of efs folder b4 flashing ,for more info read the guide
could you link me to where I can get CM9 or said Guide please?..
CM9 discussion thread in General section.

[Q] Stock theme on custom ROM

Hi i have just bought a galaxy s3 and i would like to put it a custom rom but i like the original samsung theme. I have seen a lot of customs rom on the forum but i feel kind of lost and i dont know which one should i choose, any reccomendation, suggestion or something else?
Thanks

It's funny, because everyone wants to change the stock theme to AOSP.
To keep the original theme, flash one of the Samsung based ROMS (Android development subforum), they'll have the version letters in the title (the current version is LL5)
Many roms have a stock theme .
Read the roms description first .

A clue a rom beginning with o has a stock theme and so do many others .

Basic Customisation Questions

Hello to I9100 section,
first of all i'm not complete new in customise android smartphons, but in a few days i get my first i9100 and the section is really big and confusing so i want to ask some questions.
My previous smartphones were: i9003 and i9070.
At the i9100 i want to use a stock rom as far as possible, but i want to customise some things.
The things i want to change are:
- rooting with cwm
- 14 toggle mod
- extended power menu
- percentage battery
- custom boot animation
- crt mod
- maybe if possible with stock rom a battery bar
- some tweaks like center clock and other status bar notifications.
At my search in the section i found a lot of stuff (mostly from resurrection remix), my question:
Can i use this mods on a stock rooted sansung rom with 4.1.2?
I think things like percentage battery can be done by me using uot but most of the mods i have to install,
i'm a little but unsure if the work on "stock" rotted samsung rom.
Maybe someone can giv me some tips?
I dont want to use a custom rom again cause my experiences with them weren't always good unfortunatly :/

I agree. I understand your (OP) point about custom roms that 'don't always work', but if you install a rom based on official Samsung roms, it's almost the same as stock, but with some modifications. However, I would go for Neatrom, as its development is more active than Wanamlite, but that's up to yourself.

If you want stock ICS use Alliance Rom V4.1 or if you want stock JB use Neatrom lite V4
Neatromlite + http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1999623
Almost all mods you mentioned are in AOI-X-TremeXD
Or may be you can have all these mods and more mods here: ALL IN ONE MOD by ICS_XD.:good:

Criskelo Theme

Sorry, as I can't yet post into the dev forum, I'll have to ask here:
Can you run the Criskelo V10 rom but using the standard ICS blue theme for status bars etc.
Next question:
It seems you have to use a mod called simplistic framework. I'm new to the custom rom scene, and can usually sorta figure stuff out, but what is this app? I can see it's bundled as part of Criskelo's rom, but how do you use it?
Thanks in advance, sorry for being a newbie
