[Q] How to change theme of custom ROM without flashing - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
Id like to know if there is any chances to change my current theme of my custom ROM without having to reflash all again.
Im using Zelly Cream ROM on my Xperia Ray.
Thx in advance

Can't you just install themes from the market? Although that is only possible if you have a theme option in your settings(android 4+). Once installed you change them via this theme option in settings

I mean, the custom ROM itself has different themes to chose from.
In AROMA installer I selected one of 4 dif themes that it has.
And I want to know if I must flash once again the hole ROM or just flashing it again with the dif theme will change the theme and also wont destroy my current config and apps.

Use Go Launcher

u can use go launcher for changing themes of ur rom widout flashing anything
google it for more

ADW Launcher is my personal favorite (its customization options go nicely with CM7 for my device). GO Launcher is really good though and has TONS of theme development support.

[Q] How can I get custom themes!?

Ok theirs a guy on here who made an awesome ICS theme that I want to get on my Samsung galaxy s 2. I'm not sure how to do this though. He says I'll need a custom deodexed rom (however you spell it) but it seems to me that custom Roms already change the setup/theme of your phone so do I need one ? Also am i gonna need to root my device first? Also is there a link to a good deodexed rom download that I can use?
Find the theme that you like and see with which rom its compatible with, then flash that rom and flash the theme over it.
there is tons of customs roms which gives u pretty nice themes.
1. Turkbey ROM fully themed
2. CHECK ROM - u can use kitchen app to theme
3. LIDROID ROM - you can apply diff themes using theme manager
4. TWlauncher 4.5, where you can theme the launcher

Hello XDA, and my question is: ''How I can set default theme on CM9?'' :good:
In CM7, I modify build.prop and set default theme trought parameters: persist.sys.themeId= & persist.sys.themePackageName=.

No. What I mean is I am finishing up an new ICS ROM. And I want a different theme to boot into DEFAULT the first time it boots without the person to need to select it. Example: Sense4 Theme in Cyanogenmod's theme chooser. Have that one boot as default the first time after initial install of Custom ROM instead of System theme. "WHERE IS THAT SETTING LOCATED!" I Know how to choose a theme in theme chooser.

In CM7 you can choose the default theme by editing the build prop. Then when that CM7 rom is installed, that custom theme is used instead. There has to be a way in CM9 too. HELP I'm not making one for X10 but found this Post asking the same question I am asking. This answer would help alot of us Devs

[Q] Is possible to get Theme Chooser to a stock rom?

Hi, I feel a little stupid because I wanted to get Theme Chooser, like in Cyanogen Mod, but in a stock based rom (Real ICS).
So... I tried flashing with this MOD http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2050462 But I did'n read all the post and I discover that It's not compatible with stock roms... Now I can't change a theme because the rom says me "No applications can perform this action." I did't do a backup before so I don't want to flash again my rom, any solution to this? is possible to get Theme Chooser to a custom room?
You have to flash a stock rom using flash tool, there's no other way.
Every CM-based custom rom includes the Theme Chooser, so you have to use another rom.

Well if it is not another solution I will flash -.- So... I tried CM before and my device have a little issues of compatibility (There is not a official rom for my smartphone) and I like so much Real ICS rom, but the theme is a little disgusting for me, really doesn't exists a change to install Theme Chooser?

Theme without custom rom.

Hello,
I have rooted my XSP, but I don't have a custom rom, I have the rom stock.
And, I saw on the play store, a good theme.
But, I can't install it on my phone, without a custom rom, and while my phone is under warranty I don't want to install a custom rom.
So, can I install this theme on my phone without a custom rom ?
Thanks a lot.

ok , so u can install any launcher (Go,nova,etc)
And, with nova, go or another, I can install any themes I find on the store, or only the themes proposed by this apps ?
If I install nova or go, I must configure totaly the menu, I can't keep mind.

Since you have a rooted phone, You should try XthemeEngine. But you should install Xposed Framework first.
