Unfortunately, there's no tool. The G2 has a strange launcher which is not compatible with "standard" themes. But there's a workaround. Download a theme from LG SmartWorld and replace the files inside the package (Icons etc.) with some of your choice. There are many tutorials, just ask Google.

[Q] Two questions ?

1. I have lg Optimus l7 p700 and i flash a v20 rom-rooted-cwm ... and it seems that 4.1.2 doesn't have the news app that 4.0.3 used to have.
Is there any possibility to add stock 4.0.3 news app to my phone ?
2. And does anybody have any apk or flashable zip file to install optimus g lockscreen to my l7 ?
Sorry for my english cause im albanian

For your news app, you don't find this on play store?

[Request] Segoe UI or Kitkat Roboto font for LG G2

Hello,
Can anyone get/build Segoe UI font for my unrooted LG G2 4.2.2? or even Kitkat Roboto font?
Is there any place/store that provide a collection of a decent fonts (other than LG SmartWold)?
Is there an easy way to build/convert ttf fonts to LG format because apparently Samsung font doesn't work with LG

Do you know iFont?
If you pick Roboto from the fonts list, it will be replaced with whatever you have installed through ifont.

Use iFont, download Segoe UI and install the font thru iFont. Works like a charm

I have tried to recreate an LG font apk but the fonts are in a format that includes Korean characters and they have a font.xml and font.dat that are font-specific. I'm not sure how font.xml and font.dat are generated & I can't read them even when decompiled... I created an installable apk but it didn't show up as a choosable font. Still trying a few things but no solution for non-rooted users at the moment.

I think they are standard ttf files with characters from several languages included. Samsung had a digital signature on their fonts but LG does not seem to. I think the key will be reproducing the xml and dat files in the assets folder with the font and possibly having a font that uses all of the same characters.
the new ifont has that function to convert ttf to apk.Just try to download a font and at the moment you open it the button is down in the middle!

LG apks will not work on other phones but the stock installed fonts like you are talking about can be found in system/fonts. (See attached pic)
You could rename them to an existing font and push them to a Sony or Samsung phone.

This is the one from my D802, hope it can work on your phone. Just copy it to /system/app directory.

One person just uploaded the stock gallery. If it doesn't work, download quickpic as that allows for simple editing.
Pixlr Express allows for better editing. These can both be accessed through the stock gallery on the G3 ROM by tapping the pencil icon at the top when viewing an image.

[Theme Creating] How to edit third party apps using EMUI themes?

I found EMUI themes on the internet which changed the design of various third party apps like f.e. WhatsApp. So I know, I could just take the theme, and edit the com.whatsapp file in it, but there are not all design elements of the app included. So my question: How can I find out the name of every design element and file name to change the design of every part of each app?
This is huge process i think
I'd just need the name of the elements for this xml file and the rest of the file structure where the media files for icons are (with their name). How could other people do it then? Isn't there a way to easily find that out? ?
I guess you have to decompile the apps in question and look at their source code for the correct names for elements. Probably a bit time consuming process yes. But that's probably how they all do it.
Thanks, I decompiled WhatsApp.apk and am now trying to understand how this whole thing works... I still don't understand everything especially because of the theme.xml file which obviously only exists in the theme, but not in the decompiled WhatsApp.apk. But I'm going to try to find out everything by try and error

Does anyone know how to edit the chat bubbles in Whatsapp using the EMUI themes? I already tried to enter another color inside the theme.xml:
<color name="bubble_color_outgoing">#ffd29bd7</color>
And I also tried to edit those files (see attachment) inside /res/drawable-hdpi-v4/, /res/drawable-xhdpi-v4/ and /res/drawable-xxhdpi-v4/.
Nothing changed. Is the EMUI theming engine unable to edit those chat bubbles or is there another file that I missed?
