[Q] Dark menus/theme for XZU - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

Anyone know of an xposed mod or a theme to make the stock Sony menus/theming dark like the GPe and AOSP ROMs?
I much prefer black over white, it's easier on the eyes, and I don't know if it's really a valid possibility, but maybe with a screen this size it'll save some battery too.

[Q] Honeycomb Theme for Archos 101

I looked a bit in the XDA Forum and saw some Honeycombe themes.
The Problem is, that these themes are for the CynaogenMod.
Is it possible to get these themes running on Archos 101?

Nope We have no Cyanogen = We cant have Cyanogen Themes
But there are many Launcher Pro/Adw Launcher/etc... Themes and they look like honeycomb
Or...psst... try the Dark Theme by SilentRazor, my opinion is, it looks better than honeycomb
Which themes do you mean?
I only find themes that change the background and or the icons, but thats not enough for me
And pssst i already tried SilentRazors Theme
The problem is that it looks good, but lags like hell :S
Perhaps you could clarify - when you say "themes", what are you referring to? What exactly do you want to change?

White or black UI?

Just little question.
Which one do you like better white or black ui?
all based on newest xperia ui
Have in mind that on lcd white consumes less power.
Vote on poll
Hmmm.... Black :highfive:
white consumes less power? didn't know that however, I think I prefer black UI, especially that I often use my phone at night.

Hmmm...font color is going to be your biggest hurdle if you planing to make full white.....bear in mind not all color fit into white background...
White Is more lighter,so we don't must regulate the brightness :laugh:

when can we have a theme like criskelo from z1

guys I am really hoping for a theme like the one that is from criskelo at z1 forum, hope someone can help in porting it to here. As there is no theme at all for us, all we have here are not really themes that gives a new look to our phone

If you need something more from him - ask him to do for XZU

[Request] [Root] Dark Xperia theme with dark menus

As the title says, I'm looking for a dark theme for my rooted Z3 where the menus (e.g. Settings) are black. All the available designs have white or light coloured backgrounds for system ui

+1, been looking for it since xperia z1 got update with theme engine and I didnt find even one dark theme

I think you can do that if you have root and use Xposed Framework with Holo Themer.
But im not sure what apps and programs can be themed dark and not on this phone. I have not tried myself with Z3, but it worked on Z2 for messages, mail and settings I mean to remember.
Edit: but it did not work for contacts, the contacts where force closing when pushed...
We could theme whole UI to dark without any problems, all we need is rooted device.
I'm still on Z2, probably won't get Z3 (I'm still deciding) so I don't have much informations about Z3.
First we have to patch services.jar to disable signature check.
Then we could build theme or just modify framework and apps to use dark_theme.

I know that. My Z3 is unlocked and rooted, I am looking for a dark theme for a ROOTED device. To make it more clear, I add [Root] to the thread title.

Here you are.
Is it possible to merge this theme with the awesome icons from SamSonya Theme???
This would make it really perfect. SamSonya is discontinued by the developer and is now continued by a russian guy. Perhaps the icons from SamSonya may be used for the Dark L theme.

No,they are at this time in white.
Update is coming
Pink font is gone after the update, thank you for that. In some apps I have white font on white background,, very difficult to read. It would be nice if this could be fixed

I have begin with the black keyboard.
When iam ready,it looks like the old ics keyboard
Is the concept of black menus strictly only possible with Root?
The Z3V does not yet have root, and I'm sad I can't have my dark menus that I have always used going back a long while.
You must have root and the SuperUser Mod
