Hey Guys,
I was able to successfully root my Note 3 Neo (N750) with help of Philz recovery (many thanks). After doing usual nandroid backups, Xposed and stuff.
I wanted to change look and feel of my phone. Since there are not many custom roms and most of the cool themes are for CM, I tried my hand at HKThemeManager to apply CM themes on stock samsung rom.
Did anyone had any success?
I would like to port themes to be compatible with stock firmware. Devs/seniors please point me in right direction.
Thanks,
Nikhil

I dont think it is possible to use CM theme in Stock Samsung. If you are using S5 launcher then google you will get some theme for it.
Ok. Although HKThemeManager allows using CM themes on stock roms, but I am not able to utilise it due to some kind of permission error. Any way I like stock rom on note 3neo due to features and functionality (it's so feature rich).
Any idea how to change caller id interface? (Not uci app pls)
I use mihome launcher and download themes from the launcher itself.

you can push the apk file of the launcher you have downloaded to /system/app
and delete the stock touchwizhome launcher in system/priv-app
to use the custom launcher as a stock launcher

Hey guys. I am using the Padawan ROM and it does not come with S Memo and S Note. I want to learn how to install these apps on custom ROM's that do not include the S-Apps. I tried flashing someone's ZIP and changing the permissions using Root Explorer and it didn't work. I also tried adding the apk's to the system app folder manually and changing the permissions. This was also a no go. Has anyone been able to successfully do this on custom ROM's that do not have the S-apps? If so, can you guys shoot me a bit of help?
If you were unable to successfully install the apks manually, I would recommend that you could:
A) restore your backup of your stock ROM (I'm assuming that you would be clever enough to create a CWM or TWRP backup before flashing a custom ROM),
B) use Titanium Backup to backup the S-Apps (really you should backup all your apps just to be safe),
C) flash the custom ROM of your choice and restore your apps using Titanium Backup. However please note that you can only restore the S-Apps to Touchwiz based ROMs.
I hope this is helpful for you!

I've seen many developers write that the s-pen apps require TouchWiz framework ( i.e., s-pen will not work on any CM or other non-TW based ROMs).
Here's hoping someone find a work around.
Da g has successfully ported hovering point in a couple of his custom ROMs that are mixed of different bases loaded
I'm also very interested in seeing the touchwiz/pen based features (snote, smemo and related features) in JB. I'm running the paranoidandroid hybrid cm10 ROM (love it so far!) and these capabilities would really round it out for me.
S-apps are TW dependent, and require the Touchwiz framework to function....
We may see JB TW based roms in the future that contain these APK's, but until an official JB update is sent to the note 1...(if ever) we are forced to use a TW rom (UCLF6)....or a play store variant of the S-apps,....g
Papyrus
I installed Papyrus to get some of that capability back. I read about it somewhere here. It has just been ported to GNote in the last little while I believe. projectpapyrus dot com

The Padawan ROM is ICS based but the author pulled out those apps (along with many other apps). But he saved off all the extracted apps which can be found on a link he provided in the OP (the server has been down lately though).
So go to that link, download the 2 apps u want then reboot into recovery and install the zips. That's it.

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.

I was on a few different forms and read that there are rooted launchers or something like that.
I was just wondering what some of those launchers are called. I am using the stock ROM, and I don't really want to put a custom ROM on there, I just want to change up icons, some colors, as the lost custom ROM I put on, bricked the phone.
I was just curious what different rooted launchers there are out there.
Thanks in advance.

AOSP ROM's are the best for themeing as they have the biggest variety of themes and the most compatible. If you are running stock though, you can use Xtheme and Xposed framework to install themes for your device, while some themes will work with it, many aren't compatible with stock TW.

You'll need a CM ROM to use that, the clues in the title. Themes can be installed in a few ways and generally what they're for either in the title or the theme thread.

"themes can be installed in a few ways". Launcher themes, Theme Chooser, X-Themes, themed ROMS or themed apks, you'll need to read the threads for how to install each one/way.

Hey,
I am trying to create a custom ROM for my device. I want to use Nova Launcher(free version) instead of stock launcher.
I plan to make my ROM available to others too through XDA.
Should I take permission from the developer of the launcher before adding it on my ROM?

Yes , you should ask him , that's better for both you and the team between Nova Launcher.
I agree with him.There is no harm in using without asking but mentioning and thanking them and letting them know wouldn't hurt anybody.try giving them a name in the contributions.
