Creating themes? - LG V20 Questions & Answers

I would like to know how to create a theme for the V20/G5, how would I do this?
I cannot seem to find any way to do it, I know it can be done, other people have made themes.
Is there some software I need? If so does it run on Linux, or Windows 10?
Could I de-compile the default LG theme?

Bump

Wondering if you have found a way just got my v20 about a month ago so I am late to the party.
Thanks for any info in advace.

Bumping this up as well. I see there are just a handful of theme creators for LG V20, and one of them was asking about it before somehow stumbling upon the pot of gold. I'm looking to theme my own icons simply because there's no themes out there like that. Any hints would be great!
And it does seem like google yields no results for this too. Time to dive into the dark web.

what about those new themes for windows mobile 5.0?
i've been looking around for some time but i couldn't find any of 'em
(like the halo theme from the 'bill gates presentation') or the glossy orange one, which is for smartphones i guess (like on those pictures i collected).
somwhere in the http://forum.phonethemes.com/ forum i read that the themes software from microsoft is not released yet....is that true? :?
yes that's correct...MS have not released the themes toolkit yet. Hopefully it should be quite soon.
The Halo theme looked amazing...with animation on the today theme and a whole new phone pad skin...can't wait
The only WM5 themes that I know of are here:

You will probably have to be a little more specific as to what you consider "nice" themes. Just do a simple search and start browsing through the threads/posts until you find something that you like. I even believe that there is a sticky with UltimateLauncher themes, icons, and stuff...
This is one of the better looking themes i've seen..

I would love to have that theme, but I dont think he's put out anything on it.
As far as a general idea of what kind of themes I may be interested in.. Windows Vista Style themes more specificaly but Im open to other great themes such as the one above.

new incredible user w/ skinning background

hi all,
in a few days (waiting for wirefly shipping), i'll be an incredible owner. i've done quite a bit of research on the phone up to this point, including coming across this forum and seeing that it was among the most active and informative on the net.
i have an extensive windows skinning/modding background, having been active in the scene for almost 10 years now. i am a moderator at the now mostly defunct customize.org and also at the newer, more active pixelfuckers.org, a site that was started by some of the elite desktop modders in the world as a playground and showcase for our work. my windows screenshots and skins have been very well received by the community and have even won a few contests. i've even had a couple of shots featured on lifehacker.com. i also have a good deal of graphic design and photography/post processing experience.
what i'm getting at here is that i will most certainly be looking to mod the living hell out of my incredible when it finally arrives and i'm looking for the best way to do so. i know of apps like launcher pro and adw launcher and will certainly be utilizing them. i'm also familiar with some of the roms that are available, like cyanogen, and roughly what extra capabilities they give the user as far as customization goes. lastly, i've browsed the incredible screenshot thread and have seen
my questions are as follows :
can i do a fair amount of visual customization without rooting?
what are some free apps that are skinnable and help in visual customization?
thanks in advance everyone.
as a final thought for now, i intend to start making android-sized versions of my popular desktop wallpaper series, 'photowalls', so keep a look out for those in the near future. if you'd like links to any of my work (being a new user, i can't put them in this post), don't hesitate to ask.

Definitely use Launcher Pro, you can choose what icons to use for applications you place on your homescreens, as well as hide apps in the app drawer.
You can also use BetterCut or Folder Organizer to change the icons on folders, all without root.
I'm not sure if you can get access to /system/app without rooting (I'm pretty sure you can't), but if it turns out you can, you can use ADB to replace the apk's with modified ones posted on this forum.
As far as skinnable widgets, I know Beautiful Widgets has a lot of skins available for it, but beyond that I haven't really looked. Hope this helps.
Welcome to the forums. Can't wait to see your work. Rooting is easy. Lots of roms. Great community. Glad to see you here.

thanks for the tips zoon, i'll check that thread out some time.
as far as the wallpapers go, i know the formula for resolution is 1x height and 2x width, making the dinc one 960x800. is there another resolution that's overly common that i should include in the packs? i'll probably throw an iphone-sized one in there too, just to maximize the number of downloads.
also, if anyone out there is looking to collab on a theme/widget design (you do the coding, i do the graphics), i'd definitely be up for it.
I will take you up on that sometime in the future if you don't mind. Im still getting the video cam and bluetooth working. But after that i was going to start themeing/modding.

i still want to look into some modified .apk's that have been posted here...could anyone point me in that direction?
I'll be a monkey's uncle.
It's you.

like the themes thread says. its an AOSPish theme. basically means its theme that closely resembles the look of STOCK android. our vibrants use touchwiz ui which is a skin on top of android which changes the look and adds features.
Can I download just the theme from somewhere?

LG SMS Themes?

I know there's threads linking to themes that can be applied to the Verizon version at least, that only affects the homescreen. Is there themes for the LG Messaging app? Don't know if this has been asked already. thanks anyone that can help out.
Bump. I was thinking the same thing recently. I thought I seen some themes for the messaging app but I can't find any. I don't really need one but it would be cool to have a couple. The stock pink and wood ones kinda suck.
