Hi! I am new to the DInc but am loving it rooted. (Huge step up from the Eris...LOL) I am loving the MIUI ROM so far but there are some aspects of a 100% Vanilla ROM that I'd really like. I have downloaded/installed CM6 (which I understand is the only true Vanilla ROM available - dialer specifically) but I'm wondering if there is a theme available that looks like the MUIU ROM - you know, the rounded iPhone type icons.
If no themes are available is there a way to change my current icons to the MIUI-type icons?
Thanks in advance.

You could always use LauncherPro. It allows for replacing the icons on your screens with a custom icon.

Good idea. Any suggestions on where to find custom icons?
I know if no other way... you cannot make a theme to automatically change different icons... it is all done in the framework... I am actually trying to develop a cross breed of miui and skyraider.. it is not working out so well.. anybody else on this?

The market is a great place to start If I'm not mistaken, adw.launcher has a variety of ipod/ipad-espue icons, which is what MIUI is based off of hope this info helps!
EDIT*
Whoops left out the fact that the icons for adw.launcher are classified as themes in the market

Hello,
I made a theme for myself but since more people than I expected like or use it I'll share it here.
Introduction
I liked the light blue stock samsung has but I find that they went to far with all the colors everywhere that it looks too busy and cheap. Because of a lack of inspiration I couldn't think of a good name for it.
I'm still trying to edit some images but lack the inspiration or skill to do those. So I'll post an update here if something changes.
Install instructions
All have been tested or reported working on docs jpu/jpx/jpy, darkyy's jpu/jpx, jim_panse jpu/jpx and webstars jpu/jpx roms. These zips are ment to be flashed with CWM I assume all users are familliar with flashing custom zips with CWM. It may work by installing it another way but I haven't tested that and CWM is easy and it works.
Make sure you pick the right version for your rom. Some people have flashed these on other roms. It may work but I haven't tested it.
To be safe always make a back-up or have another working theme on your sd so you can flash that if something goes wrong. Theming is not the most dangerous thing but if 1 image is named incorrectly or your rom is incompatible it may not boot anymore.
The first boot after you flash this can take a long time. And I mean a really long time. This doesn't mean its stuck at boot. After that it will boot at normal speed and future updates should also boot faster.
If there is a problem and it does get stuck at boot the phone will vibrate multiple times during the glowing S logo and eventually will go black. If you have that problem then flash your backup, a working theme or your rom again.
If you have issues after the install try to clear the dalvik cahche from recovery.
Downloads
So far they do not work on default JPO/JPU/JPX/JPY/JS3 roms.
All have been tested or reported working on docs jpu/x/y, darkyy's jpu/x/y, jim_panse jpu/x/y and webstars jpu/x/y roms.

Suggestions/Tips

Also if someone can think of a good name for this theme, I can't think of any now.
Extra's

You can find the icons here:

Using files for your own theme
If you are going to make a theme and post it here you are free to use some files from this theme. If it is a small number of images you can take them. If you are using a lot from it then you are still allowed to use it (would be nice to ask) but at least leave some credits and don't deny it (you know who you are ).

Personally I don't like the coloured icons there. But I've had this request before so I can make an small update which gives them colour. I'll make an seperate update of it for people who want colour. I think I can have it done later this week with other small updates.

The first one is battstatt and the second is clockr. Both are in the market.
I haven't tested on jpm roms. People have tried this and other themes on different roms and sometimes it works. You can try of you have a backup and the know how to fix things if it doesn't.

You can download all the icons from that link. And use them in launcherpro or desktop visualizer. Or did you ment something else?

Hi R64, tested the JPO ver. on BUJP8 base. It works but some texts were not right. Like notification it appears #6##d, the clear button in notification appeared ongoing and some other random madness. Aside from that, it's working great.

I made a new one for BUJP8 based on a working theme for that rom. I haven't tested it yet so consider it a beta. If you have a backup/revert you can try it but I can't say if and how it works.

You can put the icons anywhere as long as the gallery/mediascanner can detect them. Then just long press a icon in launcher pro and select change icon.
does this theme include the extended menu? must i install the extended menu first b4 i flash this theme?
On all the roms I've tested it with they have the extended menu.
Hi love your theme. keep up the good work.
I'm using the asop jpo theme on jp8. Works fine. Maybe you can put in the startpost if the jp8 has asop or default lock screen.
Can you tell me why they are much bigger than the one i downloded before the 29th.
Thanx
Thank you so much R64
The colour version is just perfect excellent work!!!
Please keep working in your theme! its one of the best theme for sgs
Cheers mate!

Thanks for the comments.
They are bigger than my older version from before 24-11-10 because I've added some themed apps. So that the musicplayer, gmail, mediascanner and settings use the same theme. With the next update I'll post them seperately.
You dont have to do that for me. Was just wondering.
Maybe it is wise to tell whats in the zip.

hi guys
i was wondering if any of the most popular roms like villainrom or revolutionron have any kind of themes or skins that change the design of the rom like MIUI does, i really hate the contact screen from factory android and i also lile the white design from MIUI but wanted to ask first if i should stick to Miui, the only thing is that for galaxy s2 is still in early stages, not 100% working
thanks
Try Revolution Rom and install kitchen.apk to change boot animations theams, Baseband, widgets through it on the fly.

thanks man, that was the first rom i tried, but calling screen and most of the layout is android classic design. What i meant was, a theme that changes, contextual menus, the calling screen layout again, replaces the black background , etc
i dont even know if its possible to do this but ive seen similar results with jkay themes.

I just wanted to know if there were any ROMs like MIUI in the aspect of customizability, I love the way MIUI changes absolutely everything about everything, such as the settings menu and lockscreen, pretty much ever menu out there, I just want my sgs3 to stand out you know? I want to know if there are any other ROMs similar that change the phone completely, I would use MIUI but it is too similar with IOS, no app drawer and such, thanks in advance! Please no trolling, I have looked around and couldn't seem to find any. Cheers!

Haha I'm currently using this ROM, and I didn't even know those options! I feel kinda dumb right now lol, thanks!
But I was kind of thinking along the lines of completely changing how android looks, apart from JB and ICS I was looking for something that doesn't look too much like "android".
In that case I would suggest you have a look at some of the home screen threads or the theme threads to get a completely different look. You most likely going to need a theme and/or icon packs and spend quite a bit of time customizing how your phone looks. Oh, and the options in the ROM your running are in settings, ROM control. Here for working led colors

Are there any TW roms that have an app themer like CM13? Or is there an app that works like this for TW?
I really liked that feature in CM13 and never noticed it any where for TW.
Thanks.
depends on how much you need colored
Xposed/Wanam is mainly the goto to get different colors in pulldown and more
and far as native change like stock feel you would need to look at the Note 5 Port because they actually have a theme store something similar to CM theme situation

Probably the easiest way would be to use a custom launcher, something like Ruthless or Nova can be configured to look like a Pixel. You can use custom icon packs and widgets to complete the look.
If you want to go deeper then something like Hex Installer would work as well. I prefer the AOSP status icons over the Samsung ones personally.
