Simple guide would be nice.
Upgraded to ICS today, the bottom right button doesnt bring up settings, it brings up a bar at the top which I don't like and can't change, the slider from lock screen changed to a camera when i often used it to turn silent on/off
it updated my facebook to the new slower/clunkier version
the text messaging is differnent
etc etc
I do no like this update and would like to revert to Gingerbread, has anyone done it and how do i do it?
I'm a noob too.

Hey there.
Sorry if there is a post already about this but I tried to use the search function but apparently it does not work at the moment.
I was just wondering if there is any way to install custom themes to our solas. What I am really interested in is going removing the extra backgrounds presented in the dialer and messaging apps. Hope there's a simple way to do this through root. :fingers-crossed: Cheers!
You'll be better off looking in the Themes & Apps section and if you can't find anything then ask there.

Hi people. I've seen in the WhatsApp+ themes thread an interesting theme:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51930515&postcount=1281
As you can see, it has both translucent nav and status bar. I know Xposed Framework has a plugin with this function but it does not work properly with WhatsApp, for example. My question is: How can I get this effect properly?
Thanks.
Uuup, no one knows?

That's how stock KitKat works. What phone / android version do you have?

I have Nexus 5 so I am using 4.4 since its release. The translucent effect must be applied by the developer (e.g.: Pushbullet), is not by default in all apps. I know "Force Translucent KitKat" Xposed module does this, but it does not work properly with apps like WhatsApp. That's the reason I am looking for something to get the same effect of the screenshot you can see in the thread linked above.
Ah ok. I've never used Whatsapp, so didn't know they haven't updated their app to support KK. But looks like you need the actual Whatsapp+ app installed to be able to theme the stuff you are looking for. It doesn't appear to be in the Play Store, and I am not totally sure of the origins, so am hesitant to post the link here to it where I found it. If you need more info, just PM me.

Hi,
thanks for your answer. I am using WhatsApp+ already (legal Spanish development ). The UI is same as official WhatsApp but you can apply themes published by the community. It changes almost all the UI but not the header (not at all at least). It's strange, and the member who posted it does not answer PMs :crying:
Now I understand. I believe I found what you are looking for here:
http://www.thedroid.net/download-kitkat-theme-for-whatsapp-plus/
So guys, check out my screenshot, i was checking out system apps and i saw that force touch is here. And i am using A2017G axon 7, i think it means that there must be a way to turn force touch on on A2017G/A2017U models. Just like we modded Chinese Theme Store to A2017G/A2017U models. There should be a way to turn it on and use force touch on all models. Can you modders please check out and try to find a way to do it?
Thank you.
It's because the devices use the same software, but not the same force-touch screen. This feature cannot be ported, because it is hardware-related.
The next time please don't post in the themes and apps category. This thread should have been posted in the Q & A category.

Hi, is there a working dark theme for P20 lite with the emui 9.1 update ? Old themes not working without errors
Looking for the same. After the update, from all the dark themes I ve tried, any seems to be able to change the color of dropdown menu. Furthermore, there are a lot of menus where you can't read anything because of the font colors.
Is with me also so close me to the search
Same problem here. I can,t find a working dark system theme after the update to EMUI 9.1. Please help ?

Is not full black, but I've tried more than 50 black themes last 2wk, and this is that have less bugs. Most black themes for emui 9.1 are for pro devices that have a led panel in the screen, so they made dark interface color mode for save battery only for these devices, coz led panels needs to emulate the black colour turning on the led pixels. The lcds are black with pixel turned off, so they don't got this feature. Then, when u make a theme with a black based ui, it appears different on white ui. This is the bug reason.
I have send a msg to the member Maurydes, the creator of the theme that I have shared u. He creates almost of his themes for black ui. I've proposed him create a theme for white ui, but the more darkness possible. I've send him screenshots of how looks his black based themes on our phones, the bugs that I've found, and screenshots of the theme I shared u, and how it works on almost the apps, and where it's bugged.

U should contact him too, he is a big recognized themer on xda and 4pda, if all of us that have this issues contact him, he will notice that there is a large part of the community that has no support or access to quality content without bugs, even if they have current devices.
How can you customize such a theme?

No man, I don't have the knowledge, I would like to investigate it and try it, but it would not be something professional, it would only be a test, for the mere fact of enjoying doing it. What I am willing to do is to make ourselves heard, to create together post in important sections of the forum, so that those of us who have these problems are heard. I have a Huawei P Smart, don't a p20L, but the chip is the same and that's why I entered your forum, looking for a compatible theme with WhiteUi phones.
In emui 9.1 the only thing that differentiates mobile using themes, is to be lcd or led, it does not matter if the phone is worth € 20 or € 900, it is for emui 9.1 regardless of the money you can afford, and that is why we must act
Not the best, but works for me
How to get ?
Theme are called "Dark9ny" under emui9 not emui9.1 sector, use serch "dark" and will bet 3 versions
Which theme is it because the video is not right
Gesendet von meinem ANE-LX1 mit Tapatalk
"Death World"
I completely agree with you and I got really angry when I saw that the status bar was light. I swear I tried ALL dark themes and articles like this on internet - none worked without bugs. But today I finally found working black theme for EMUI 9.1 (I'm using Huawei P20 Lite, not sure if it works on any device).
The theme is called "Death World" and is currently avaliabe in the Themes app for free. Not that it even supports dark status bar (the dropdown thingy or idk how it's called) but also has dark theme for other system apps, like Messages, etc.
This theme saved my lif- oh, maybe not but I'm really happy I found it. Please, leave a like in the Themes app for the developer as it was the only theme I found working and free. Support the developer. Perhaps you will find another one or more will come, I don't know... And when I don't know, it is your duty to make me know by replying. Thank you and...
...you're welcome, "dark-themers"
Note: I posted this to help others or to give them advice (or I don't know, idea) with the dark theme for the new light eye-killer monstrosity. Maybe you have already found what you're looking for - good, so let's make everyone know about the fact, that dark theme for EMUI 9.1 actually exists... for free.
Goodbye!
I have found a dark theme (most system Applications are dark) and I have combined this with two other themes and edited it a Little bit. Now its a really nice dark theme, but I do not know if I can share this with you (cause it's not my theme(copyright idk)). Let me know if you know if I can share this (and if you need it). :good:
Edit: the top Bar/status bar is black too
please send the theme link
