Hi Everyone,
First of all, thanks for the amazing forum community. Ive been able to achieve more than I would have originally thought possible on this v30s ux/ui. It's my favourite piece of hardware that I've ever owned and my goal is to make the ux UI be worthy of it's amazing innards.
Id like the ability to modify the quick settings and notification pane - change the look/feel + icons, optimize features; but I have not yet been able to find a way to do this. I'm guessing it may not be possible, but I'd like to know if anyone has any ideas? I don't mind putting an unreasonable amount of hours into this; just keen to know options.
Cheers.

Hello everyone,
I will appreciate and will be very thankful for your thoughts concerning the following-
I am an animator with zero android programing knowledge.
I was thinking about creating and selling (on the android market) unique animations that are meant to be customized as a lockscreen.
As I do not really familiar with the programing world, I was wondering if there is a way/place/platform where I will be able to provide such animations so people will be able to buy and customize them within an already built app that enables such customization option( and even better, for other options as well, like- live wallpapers, splash animations, boot animations etc')
While looking on the web, I came across with people who sell lockscreen themes that are built upon "known" apps that enable lockscreen customization, but as I am new to this world I do not know how to do such thing as well as how to sell such app/themes.
As I only create animations(I export them as video files and able to convert them to any format necessary), I will be very happy to know if there is a simple solution to the above without the need to deal with programing but to still be able to somehow offer my work on the android market (or in other ways)
Thank you, in advanced, for any advice that might solve that challenge.
Kind regards,
I.
Hi, as we all know androids notification is quite great. Apple however took this concept and in my opinion improved it. Many developer also seemd to like it and there are many apps on cydia that offers some customization.
What I'm looking for is an app or any way really that lets you customize the drop down window.
I'd like to b able to change wallpaper, change color of text, add widgets and info for fast updates.
I have spent many hours googling but I cant find anything like this. Is there any way to do this or does someone have thw ability to make souch an app?
I hope
I'm pretty sure access to the android notification can not be done through an app. Its like a core system process that probably can't be edited in real time. You would have to embed some sort of "notification drop down settings" into the OS.
But he is right Apple should not be ahead of us in any way..
Has no one left with common computer skills?
There's many topics on this here one just for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363528
Google and search button's seems to be extra these days
Good stuff I'll have to try. I don't know about everyone else about the search function, but I like to use my phone as a PC so the search does not work all that great through the android browser. Then filtering through the results.on this smaller than PC screen will give anyone a headache. Maybe the xda app is better idk..

Hi there,
I would like to know how I can change colours on my Android... Just like the blueish thing on the top bar, I can't stand it... Can't I just change it to white or else???
Why is'nt there any options to change that... I mean it's not a big ask is it
Vonz
I dont think you will be able to achieve this even if you are rooted. You have to install some custom ROMs which will proide you options for this. For ex: AOKP.
Mate, I have 6 ROMS in my BootMenu and NONE of them provides the option. I always wanted to do so since GB and now we have moved up it is still not possible. Even the themes do not cover the base frame and you still CANOT CHANGE THE COLOURS.
Appologies for my frustration but it seems that it is the simplest and the FIRST thing that any user will be trying to do if interested in customisation. I have all the custom ROMS in the world and still kicking around with the basic ugly blueish colours the designers arbitrarly choosed for us without implementing a simple menu to change them, what's the go with this??
Everybody is happy the way it is? No one wants to have a possibility to change layout colours?
Hi All,
First off, I LOVE themer! I've been using Apex Launcher for some time on my HTC OneX (rooted, ARHD 31.3 ROM) and I've often gazed with longing at the home screens that some people have designed using UCCW, knowing that I'll necer have the time (or the artistic flair) to design my own. Now I can!
But there seems to be SO many customization options on Themer, and I'm a little overwhelmed. For instance, I'm using a theme with an RSS feed as a central tile, but I'd love to be able to change that to a 'favourite apps' tile. I'm sure the option is there, but I can't work it out. So, has anyone developed/is working on/knows of a Themer user guide?
I work on a cruise ship and internet access is slow and expensive (£10 for 167 minutes!) so I really don't have time to surf around looking for answers to design questions.
SO, does such a guide exist? If so, please point me in the right direction. If not, is anyone up to the challenge?:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
The video is kind of like a user guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2474039

Thanks miles_muso for your kind words! Yes the video vhngu930 provided is a good one, but for your problem I can help here. See the thing is that you'd first have to delete that RSS icon and then hold down on the homescreen > Themer Actions > Favorite Apps. Now you'll have a massive heart (we're working on adding icon packs soon), which you'll be able to edit. If you hold down on the icon > edit > tap the icon, you'll be able to replace it with an icon image. You can maybe try here for icon images which may help, they by Jeppe Foldager and the small whites and darks should help for now: https://www.copy.com/s/DxsaXLatvBGf/Share/Icons
Hope this helps!
Paranoid Android made me forget Xposed, never looked back. The genius behind peek and pie just frightens people who see it in action and it makes me think I am playing in a sort of near-future fiction.
One thing I am desperate for, despite all this, is the possibility to change icons, system-wide, like Unicon permits it
.
I know it is not a pure "google experience", but in my opinion bad design choices made by app developers for their icons aren't either.
The possibility to have a clean look, either by changing a single icon or even multiple of them to get a unique and coherent look all across the system.
I also know that there is the possibilty to change the launcher, but I find it more disturbing than anything other to have two different icons for the same app. It just seems like badly hiding someone else's mess.
I wish you all a good day, silently waiting to enjoy hover, hopefully soon and in all it's glory.
Thank you again for making my phone feel awesome each time I hold it.
