found a great way to theme with no root - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

If your not rooted using stock there is a really easy way to a pitch black system using overlay. It doesn't need a pc and can do it all on our phone it also themes the play store black, whatsapp Twitter etc. The app in question is called swift installer on the play store. It's worth the money and works great

I am. I mention swift as a alternative as I didn't know about it and gave it a try.

Cool , substratum also has a swift black theme if you want to give it a shot

New Market

I noticed this morning that my themed Market from MikFroyo had changed back to the factory theme. I checked the version number and it did change to 2.3.2.
Anyone else notice this?

i dont like the themed markets. i wish the devs would leave the markets alone. i love the green theme on it. i also dont understand all this black theme stuff too hard to read in the great outdoors. I like the stock dialer but wish it had the contacts tab like the asop roms. I think the asop roms should also support the ##Code# aka epst codes. Who really wants to use qpst to edit your settings for the sprint port settings for streaming....

Keep in mind that, even if they have themed it, you can install the basic apk and that will get rid of the theming.
oh? you can choose whatever color you want... they have themed markets because the green doesn't match a lot of roms... at all. green and black do not mix very well. haha
Fact, black goes with everything.

True, but why do they have to make it transparent too? I replaced MikMarket really fast because of that.

lol. i dislike transparent... i don't get it... all it does is take up more processing power. I have to agree on this one.
True it does... but the green stands out to much on a darker rom
if you like the color or don't want your market to change use Titanium backup to freeze the market updater 1.0 . This will not affect the market but stop it from randomly updating.
Yeah, this happens a lot because the market is updated so often. It's a shame because I really liked the market theme that came with myns ROM...
I really like the transparent market because I like seeing my lw behind it. That aside though it urks me that Google forces these updates without warning and a changelog. I'm sure I could go digging for the changelog but they (Google) could also post it when the market updates.
For some reason I just don't like things being updated on my phone without me initializing it. I'm sure that somewhere in market's "terms and conditions" it states that they have the right to update your software without telling you, but it's still annoying.

Just freeze it in tt backup to stop updates. if its a big update you want thaw out and apply update

Deck rom

Just wonder if there any other theme files to download got bored of the four it came with
i think that as long as any theme is compatible with theme chooser then u can use it. not 100% on that tho....

Negative, not for the majority of them. You just apply them with the theme chooser. Most of those (i haven't tried all of them) should be an .apk. Just download and install the .apk. Then go to the 'theme chooser' app and select it, just as you do with the 4 themes that already came with Deck's rom. These are all compatible with the Theme Chooser.
None of the links are working you know any other place

They're not working for you? They should link you to the market. I just tried quite a few of them, and it takes me to the online android market web page. From there it just installs to your phone. You just need to make sure you sign into the market online. Then it'll wirelessly push the app to your phone. If the links aren't working for you, I'm unsure. They all work fine for me...
There are a bunch of themes that are compatible with the Theme Chooser that are available in the market. You can search the market on your phone if you want, for cm7 themes, or theme chooser themes or something. there's a ton of them.

What Buck said. I've got about 15 themes on my phone right now from the market that will work with Decks/theme chooser.

Go to the android market and type "CM7 themes" then download and apply through theme chooser.
Theme request... victorian green
I love the colors in NOV SKIN V2.1 Sense 3.0 Skin by Hateslinger, but of course it's not compatible with Deck. I wish I were tech savvy enough to make my own skin, but I'm not, so if anyone would like to show off what they can do with it, I would be forever grateful!
And thank you for Deck!! It's the first time I tried a custom ROM and I Love it!!!

It's totally OK. It's your hard earned money and you have the total control over it's usage. I shared my work in both free and paid forms so that users can test and then only buy if they want to.
I too don't buy apps that often but if a paid app is useful then I wouldn't think twice.
I myself like the stock Sony look but that doesn't means that we shouldn't try new things.
For the note, I have root but not patched services.jar or superusermod but theme works.
Yet it has been previously reported that some themes fail to work that's why I wrote that.

It's just the initial version and you are complaining about absence of assets.

An app/theme can never be complete. There will be something or the other to add/update.
That means I or anybody should never sell anything??

Honestly your price tag is way steap. No offense and you are allowed to charge whatever you want but may I suggest coming down on the price a bit. Notice anyone else selling xperia themes here on xda? Not saying you shouldn't be selling it but I'm pretty sure it's the reason you're getting so much negativity.
Good luck with the theme. It looks promising.

Thank you for your suggestions.
You see the negativity is not due to the price but differences in thinking.
I provided a free version with adequate theming if not much.
I linked to my guide and xposed module if someone wants to make his/her own theme or try before buying.
I am not forcing anyone to buy my theme.
They want 100% of everything at a little or no cost but as a user everyone needs to understand that that's not possible.
I am trying my best to provide the community with good content.
For that am charging a small amount which gives me boost to work better.
I don't work alone. We are a team. I will discuss with my team members for the price.
Once again thanks for your suggestions.
I truly appreciate your help.

Points taken. I definitely understand what you mean about the 100% of everything at no cost. I do appreciate your work though. I really like your Android L theme that you made, I'm rocking that one now on my ZU.
Anyways I do look forward to see how this theme will progress. I do have one request; and that is to not keep the Free version too far behind the paid version. I have seen so many Devs that provide a Free version to their Themes and don't update them. Maybe it's a time strain, I don't know but it would be nice to keep them maybe 1 version apart and that should spark the interests for trials to become buyers.
Cheers

Ya actually it's a time strain to provide support for 2 versions at the same time and as a Dev I need to keep the paid version updated for showing Thankfulness to all those bought the theme.
But that certainly dose not means that I will never update the free version.
Right now I am trying to add Boot animation changer to Xperia Themes[Only Paid for now] as one can with CM11 themes. Taking backup of original one works. Moving bootanimation.zip from Theme App to sd-card works too. Now I need to figure out how to apply the theme bootanimation.zip. I tried 3 different methods but all failed.

Yup that's what I exactly mean.
As Sony didn't added direct support for this in Xperia Themes, I searched for workarounds.

Seeing that it's failing I have a feeling it has to do with mounting and setting permissions. I am in no way a coder/dev of anything, but is there a way for you to add a command string to have the xperia themer(when applying the theme), send a command to a root browser program to do the copying and setting of permissions for you? Kind of how Tasker works.

[Question]Dark google apps possible with TouchWiz nougat?

As the title says, I am searching for ways to dark theme my Google apps.
The beta version on nougat had this option but was later removed.
Substratum and layers doesn't seem to work after TW lollipop.
Developers have made it possible for CyanogenMod [lineage os] and layers and substratum work with original Android long back. Why hasn't anything been done to TouchWiz?
I dislike the idea of using blackout as it needs late manual updates.
Probably there are ways to dark theme and I am unaware of it. If there any, please let me know.
Thank you.
P.S. I am planning to open up a petition to force Google to implement dark theme technology. Will update as soon as I am done.
""force Google to implement dark theme technology".
Yeah, good luck with that.

There are plenty of apps in play store which has the option to switch to dark theme. If they can make it, why can't Google?
Thanks btw.

Anyway to make the notification pull-down BLACK instead of dark

Just wondering. Would love to have it black to match the rest of the theme. Thanks
