Okay, S6 owners...
I know about the Theme Engine, I know you can download Avengers and Pink and whatnot but what I'm curious about is the level of control WITHIN the theme. I like the default theme very much but I'm getting a Gold model in a few weeks time; the dialer green and contacts orange are going to look like ass on a gold phone.
So, within a theme, what access do we have? Can we change colors, backgrounds, login screens, tray, etc, or are we limited to what we're given?
Anyone? I'll Thank the **** out of anyone who answers...
No we cant. We can't mix and match themes. Just pick one and it is applied throughout the system

Some themes on MiniCM7 ROM change the color of certain icons, like system apps and certain market apps. This is immensely annoying, and since the theme doesn't have custom color icons for EVERY program, it just makes everythinhg look like ****. For example, I found a nice black and white theme in the market, but it also makes certain icons black and white, this combined with other icons that remain colorful, makes the whole thing look like a mess. It's just a stupid idea if you ask me. Who doesn't have at least a couple of "odd" programs that aren't skinned by the theme?
I wish there was some way to disable custom theme icons in MiniCM7.
Is there some way to do so?
I wish there was some way to make them ALL neochrome..
ADW Settings/Themes Perferences/ "Use Theme Icons" (uncheck)
I love the Holo Light with Dark Actionbar theme. I have been working to make a vrtheme for it, but being amateur in themeing its taking me considerable more time and effort to make it work having to use the hit-and-trial method for everything and its becoming kind-of frustrating. So, even though I'll continue working on my own version of it, I'd like to put the idea out there so that maybe someone with experience can make it for us if he likes the idea as well.
What I'm thinking of is an even Holo Light theme throughout the ROM :
White background & black text for most apps(Phone, Messaging and the likes) and Settings. (I guess you could call it "inverted" but with holo colors thrown in.)
Dark grey & slightly beveled status bar. (Or White status bar with dark grey icons, but would mess up most app notifications since they are in white.)
White background in expanded notifications statusbar with Dark Gray toggles and Dark Grey and Holo blue for notifications.
Minimalistic Black/Grey Icons (like the ones provided for notifications by default in the Android resources) for Phone, Messaging, etc.
For cues and inspiration on the colors and feel, the Light theme on Falcon Pro and GMail's default Light/High Contrast Theme are good to try to take ideas from.
Meanwhile I'll continue working on my own version and I'll post it here as soon as I make a decent beta version.
I'm pretty sure its not been asked for or done here. But if I didn't search properly please point me in the right direction.
I was wondering if themer can allow us to put small pieces of images, or shapes into a screen, to make screens more eye-catching.
Why i´m asking this?
Some themes (like SKY theme) are just GREAT on images, but they uses dividers, ribbons, trays, or boxes, all drawed together with the wallpaper. Some guys, like me can be free to change just the picture, but keep the other graphic elements, shapes and lines that make the theme so interesting.
Other lack of funcionality is that sometimes I try to add a new page to a theme, and we have problems to make it 'similar' to the other ones existent on the theme, due to wallpaper differences and other things... One-click theming is awesome, but some guys cant stand it and go ahead with customizations :cyclops:
Do you themer guys think this might be a good idea or this can be a problem for memory comsumption point.

Have fun, once Zooper Widget also becomes integrated you'll be able to create shapes there too :laugh:

Hi LyfL3ss. Are you the developer of Aero Launcher? I have been trying to reach the developers of this software for a while now.
I am trying to ask them to add a theme. I would like a yellow text on black theme because it would fit with my phone/tablet and color theme i use overall.
I am adding a Sample i made using two different yellow (dark sand from the yellow theme, and a brighter gold theme)
Otherwise maybe add a way to make your own theme? My understanding is that it's just two colors (background and text color) maybe a color selector would give good flexibility to the users?
I hope i am asking the right person!
Take care.
Hi everyone.. I'm at a loss and don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Let's start saying I'm a super noob with this so all I do is just by trial and error.
Anyway, I have a theme I made with some custom image from my phone. I really like it, but no matter what I try, the color behind the notifications (not the quick menu, that one is fine with the shade of blue I picked) always remains white and so does the main settings background. (the settings background in the dialer app instead, for instance, changes fine, with the same file...??)
I don't understand what or where this white is located cause I've pretty much tried to replace everything white that isn't font or button colors... Yet no luck. Maybe it's hidden somewhere I can't see it?
Basically in the latest theme manager, I go to Home screen, settings, and under background I put a .9.png file. But this image is never reflected in the theme when I apply it. I don't know if this is what affects the notification color either, but I have no other clue what could be since it's the only 2 things that remain white in the theme!
I know it's possible to definitely change notification BG color in emui 10 themes because I have downloaded some who have green or red/blue notifications and those changed fine.... So I copied them from phone to pc and selected import in the theme studio cause I wanted to check where the difference was... But when I import them they revert to default. Maybe they're protected (rightfully so!) or something?
If anyone who makes themes could kindly help or tell me where the exact setting for the notification colors is, it would be a great help, or if anyone knows why that image doesn't get applied to the theme!
Thanks!
