My phone is not rooted. Does UCCW work on rooted phones only?

You can apply uccw themes through the uccw widgets. To apply regular themes you need a custom rom that will accept themes.

Aren't you just suppose to download a theme in ".zip" form then stick it in a folder you create named "skins?"

If you would just READ the threads here you'll find the answers
Anyway, just so you won't say I posted for nothing:
- Froyo themes: flash the theme via recovery (I won't answer if you ask what a custom recovery is); ROM must be deodexed.
- CyanogenMod themes: install it like a regular .apk and select it from Theme Chooser

There are themes for the CM7 theme chooser everywhere. Firstly, take a look in the HD2 Android Themes & Apps section, then have a look on the market and other resources. The app 'Rom Toolbox' does pretty much everything, including giving a nice list of CM7 themes. There's also an app called something along the lines of 'Themes for T-Mobile theme chooser' on the market which gives themes and previews of them.
Just go into ADWsettings (click centre windows key), there you will see option for get themes under Theme Preferences?

[Q] Nexus 4 Cyanogen Mod Icon Help!

Phone : Nexus 4
ROM: Cyanogen Mod 10.1
I've seen numerous apps such as "Launcher Pro" and "ADW Launcher" which allow you to change the stock icons on cyanogen mod, i have a icon.apk which is installed however i would like to use these icons using the default cyanogen mod launcher trebuchet rather than having to use a third party launcher such as ADW is this possible if so how??
Will i need to replace each icon individually? Surely this is built into cyanogen mod via the themes section but i cant seem to fiqure out how!?

no this is not possible on the stock launcher unless you download and apply a full theme, just search "CM10 themes" in the play store. also, you could use a different 3rd party launcher like apex or nova, each look exactly like the stock launcher except they have way more customization. both of these are available on the play store as well
Is it possible to add these icons to the Cyanogen Mod zip then update the os?

[Q] Different theme choosers?

So I noticed that the theme chooser apk in Eclipse 3.1 does not theme some things that the apk in Blackbean or SmoothRom does. For example, camera and keyboard. Has anyone else noticed this? Does anyone know if it's possible to swap the apk between the ROMS?
thanks
Hi, I believe Theme Chooser is just the software that allow you to apply themes.
The actual modifications of the theme are in another apk that should be called "yourtheme.apk" or else.
So if you want to modify/swap images, do it in your "yourtheme.apk" not in Theme Chooser
Oh wow i wasn't aware of that. I will give it a go and see what happens. thanks

Pixel round icons

So I have 7.1.2, rooted, with TWRP and I have pixel launcher.
I have downloaded round icons APK from APK mirror, installed it and rebooted, but I don't see round icons.
Why?

Hello... Because your OS tells your launcher to use square icons, not rounded.
Check this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/guide-enable-pixel-launcher-round-icon-t3536267
You can do it if you wish though.
Good luck...
