I was wondering since the N4 is pure android will it be able to support theme engine in order to easily install custom themes like in cm9/cm10.
TIA
this thing has a mind of it's own

Not on the stock ROM but it will when CM/AOKP becomes available.
The theme engine is not part of AOSP pure android. It all started with CM and every version of theme engines are built off it

I'm running stock rooted 4.1.1 on my new N7 and was wondering how to get theme manager themes. Is it possible to just install the theme chooser apk and then I can add themes or do I have to run a ROM that has it built in?

Yes I know all about what the theme chooser is. I want to bake it into my stock rooted n7.

Theme Chooser is built into the framework. So no, you have to be running a ROM that has it to get its functionality.

Hi
I got my N4 a few months ago and wanted to know how to get the themes posted on here onto my phone.
Any help/links would be appreciated.Complete noob here.My first android phone and would be great if there is a guide for dummies or anything similar.
Hope to learn a lot from xda.
Thanks
If you're on the stock rom then you can't use themes. You need to flash a rom that supports themes and most of them do (CM, AOKP, PA, etc.). After that it's just a matter of installing the theme apk then opening up the theme chooser and setting the theme.

Can't answer that for you. Thats like saying what is the most stable and easy to drive car?
Best advice is to look down the Original Android dev forum based on popularity and user feedback (read past couple of pages).
They're all free. Hell.... if you want, put down 6 hours and try them all!
I personally use CarbonRom + Franco. Kernels is another story but adds a lot to your phone such as color control, headphone gain etc

Is there a way to install cm11 theme engine over stock 4.4.4? While i was on Paranoid, i had some cm11 themes, but now i see no way to use these themes again.
Is there any alternatives for it?
How about flashing cm for cm theme chooser?
Cause there is no way to get the cm theme chooser seperately for other roms

Can't he use HK theme with Xposed?
I haven't tried it personally, but OP, give this a look.

Of he can use Hk, but thats need xposed and xposed causes a lot of trouble (for me) and it only works for the latest cm11 themes.
Well, HK cannot even detect my CM11 theme... I'll try updating the theme to a new version, or try to mimic it's interface with XBlast but i hardly doubt i'll get something near.
Thank you guys.
HK doesn't work with/recognise CM11 themes (specially L theme for CM11) so don't know how to get the theme working.
Any other suggestions guys
Why isn't it possible to port a rom from galaxy s5 to the nexus 4 or the g3 rom or things like that? All the roms are awesome but they are still the same look and everything only with extra options and features.. i'll be love to try something different if it is possible and if there is such ported rom of touchwiz or something like that can someone please share it with me?
It is possible, it'd just take a long time and no dev who knows how to do so has done those specific roms.
The hardware in the phones are different which means different drivers, bootloaders, system images, recoveries, etc.

So it is possible but it just hard?
It is hard to port Samsung's Touchwiz to other phones because Touchwiz requires a Samsung kernel and a bug-free kernel may not be possible. Same goes for the lg ROM.

So we can use the ported launcher from here:

Sometimes, you can get your ROM to visually resemble Touchwiz by using custom launcher such as Nov and applying Nova-compatible themes. Theming is good but not always a perfect replica of the original interface.

So there's no hope?
I doubt it. The developer would also need source code, preferably the original phone, and nexus 4.
Just install CyanogenMod 11 on your device and apply this theme:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thomassafca.theme.touchwiz&hl=en
And this launcher:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.epic.launcher.tw&hl=en
Also you can look for some touchwiz or LG apps here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335530
And there is themes for LG phones for CyanogenMod too.
Greetings.
I know there is cm12 available and tried it but I really don't like the interface of pure android like on nexus. I was asking if a lollipop rom touchwiz based and with samsung apps (possibly even statusbar and lock screen, just like it is on stock kitkat) will ever be developed.

Probably not man, really hard work, not enough sources and only two Devs making custom roms for this mobile...It's a pity!!!

:crying: As far as Samsung is concerned I don't think they will release the android lollipop update for S3 Neo. And AFAIK no DEV wants TouchWiz. Pure android is much better in functionality. So you may well end up disappointed. Best bet is CM12 only.
I don't know for Touchwiz Apps but for TW Launcher there are a lot of similars into Play Store!

I'm trying to port the s4 mini tw lollipop rom but I NEVER sucessfully ported a rom and I would need some help. More, for now I not asked the rom developer so I don't know if I will have the permissions to port it. And finally, those device hasn't the same screen resolution. I think that the project will fail
