I know most peeps don't care for the IOS looking curved corners for their icons but this is exactly what i'm trying to find because they are big enough that they are easier for me. Besides i do like the icons look.
Trouble is i have tried and tried to change those on the MT2-L03 running the Lollipop standard updated ROM but can't get any themes or icons i find to take hold.
Using Nova Launcher too, it only shows Marshmallow and System but the lower task icons refuse to change.
Does anyone know if there is at least a way to change the default icons only to those Honor 5X Marshmallow type for the HAM2 or is there a trick such as flashing a Theme to get them on it?
I assume Honor 5X stock Theme is not compatible but i didn't know it would be so difficult just to change the icons to what is wanted.

i used the cf auto root and NH7 so still 4.4.4
im looking for some suggestions from the experienced users of either app or themes based on my needs.
im vision impaired and deaf so sound is whatever but vibrations are great if customized. as for vision, i work best with the dark themes. mainly like everything is a black nackground with light colored text. even google chrome. i can do it on my pc but not phone and i did try firefox but altho it worked, not very stable to use. i do tend to lean towards go launcher bc of editing how i like and still simple icons. nothing fancy or whatnot. but another app would be like a note pad where background is black, font is white but you can change the size of the font. ive tried blackbook app but its perfect if i could just change the font size. can anyone suggest any dark themes or apps that could benefit me? im not to ready to update to lollipop yet but if its the only way to get certain things i need, i will but for now i would like to try to stick with android 4.4.4. thank you in advance to any help and advice!

Hi , have you tried to change your font size ? Go to settings/device/font/font size and you can change your font size. Or you can change style also while your there 5 fonts that come with the device. Or you can go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2752379 download and install this APK and you have 500 different fonts to choose from.
Before I moved to 5.1.1 I had been using a 5.0.1 6x6 Launcher mod from the Sprint Note 4 forum which I liked very much, but won't work on 5.1.1
I have been looking everywhere for a similar mod for 5.1.1 but cannot find any (yet).
I am currently surviving with the Note 5 launcher in 5x5 mode, but that's not quite what I want and it has some quirks (no wrap around scrolling for instance).
At this point, I've decided I'd decompile my current launcher and modify it to suit my needs, but cannot find any reference on what parameters I should modify, and where, to achieve the desired result. Following available tutorials on modding previous launcher versions just don't work here.
Does anyone around know where I could find that information? For the Note 4 5.1.1 stock launcher (and the Note 5 one too actually, since I have that installed currently)?
thanks in advance!
Come on man does anyone have an idea?
No one knows?
Hello,
I've been holding off upgrading to Android 5 or newer and have been sticking to Android 4.3 because I plainly do not like how the icons and graphics for Android 4.4 and up looks like. Would it be possible to make Android 5.x look exactly like Android 4.3? Perhaps with a skin?
For example, the shape of the Back, Home and Switch Window icons at the bottom of the screen, the position of the Quick Settings in the Notification Panel, the shape and icon design of the Wi-Fi and Cellular signal strength and so on.
I have my Sony Stock Android 4.3 Rooted, which allows me to apply security fixes (ie. disabling Stagefright in build.prop) and installing permissions managers but I think as Android 4.3 ages more and more exploits would be possible against it. So I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade to Android 5x and then skin it to look and feel like 4.3.
Thank you!

That's a very weird thing to do, but alright.
First of all, any reason why you're not on 4.4.4? That's the last KitKat version. Heck, 4.3 isn't even KitKat! It's Jelly Bean, so you're two versions behind. KitKat looks the same as Jelly Bean and runs much better than Jelly Bean.
Second, you can change the navigation buttons (the three buttons at the bottom) by either using an Xposed module or by installing an app (just google "change android navbar icons".
Third, you can also flash CM12.1 and use a theme. You won't find a theme that looks like the old Sony UI, because why would anyone make that, but you can theme it to look like anything else than stock Lollipop.
Fourth, you can stay on 4.4.4 and have a rather big issue at hand once you have to buy a new device It's not like Google will revert the design, so the best thing to do is to start liking it, or move to a different OS.
Cheers

Thanks for the reply. I've been trying some builds here and there, such as Cyanogenmod and Blisspop, I just have to use 5.x for a few days I guess.
What ROMs would you recommend that doesn't have broken features? Right now I'm using Sony Stock 5.1.1 and rooted it using the Kingroot app and replaced that with SuperSU.

The most stable ones are of course the official ones, so the one you're already running and the GPe port are the most stable ones. Also, I guess you can simply use a theme on the ROM you're running right now. Take a look here if you haven't already.
Bro just use lp with nova launcher
I am trying to download themes for the EMUI theme engine for the 5X . I can;t find any themes for it. Do you guys where to download themes from? I don;t see the option to download more inside the theme engine.

Marshmallow theme is nice. *Must be rooted*
I can confirm the themes work if you rename the (.bin) to (.hwt) and place into /system/themes folder.
Thanks for those Themes! chui84 Here's redblackneo, MM, and Blackwhite. It changes icons, font, systemui, and dialer. Might help someone get used to EMUI a little.
I jump back and forth to Google Now launcher as I miss the app drawer. Other then that I don't dislike EMUI actually.
And I definetely Love this phone other than Hotspot restrictions that I am working on now.
Great find on these themes.

I tried redblackneo,changed most things, it didn't change systemui. I don't even see that in the "customize" menu in theme..... am I missing something?
that is something you cannot mix and match....
to word it differently:
Choose the theme you want based on the systemui.
Everything else can be mixed between any other themes you have installed.
My issue is I cannot get any customized network signals to work...
Battery themes.... Wifi themes.... Rotation lock themes.... Alarm themes... but that's it. How can I get some network signal love on here?
I have created a group on Google+ devoted to teaching and creating themes. Actually, there's a couple of groups on Google+ sharing themes.
And if you don't mind using translator, club.Huawei.com has themes in Chinese, they seem to almost all work fine.

Hey Guys,
Is there any Theme available for Mate 20 pro, which changes the Notch icons like Battery, Wifi etc like the way it works on EMUI 5 or 8 themes?
Got bored with the same set of icons on Notch.
Regards,
RG
Seems impossible
Seeking the same thing too... I really hate those ugly icons... But some sources say that EMUI 9 banned ways changing those icons..............
