Hi all,
Been searching in this thread, but haven't found my solution yet.
Can anyone provide me with a stock deodexed galaxy s theme together with 4 lockscreens and extended power menu?
Am currently running on Doc's rom and would like to have the stock look but with features of custom roms.
Many thanks.
Something similar has already been posted here, but it's nothing useful really.
I would also like to have this.

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'm running the Naerok rom with the ICS theme. I was wondering if anyone out there has the zip or apk needed to enable me to have extended power menu options like in Calkulins, or Cyanogen for example. If it can come themed for ICS that would be great too if not no big deal
I recently installed the unnamed ROM on my phone, and I really do like it. However, i'm not a fan of the default touch wiz interface. I flashed an ice cream sandwich theme over it and I lost the extended toggles that came with the ROM...I really liked those toggles I was wondering if there's a mod I could get so I could flash the toggles over the theme to get them back.I've searched for one but to no avail. Also, this is a long shot but the transitions with the unnamed ROM are a lot nicer then the transitions with over stews Ics theme (ironically the ROM is using Ics transitions) . Is there a way to flash the theme and keep the Rom transition.
A completely ddifferent choice would be to flash blazers rom which comes with an ice theme packaged in. Is blazers rom comparable to unnamed? From what ive heard it has a lot of bugs and isn't the greatest on battery. what's everyone's opinion?

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

Might be just a silly question, but where do I find the themes? Are they connected to the AOKP ROM itself?

you can install Apex launcher or any other launcher on top of MIUI to make it look and behave like any other rooms with the options and functionality of MIUI

Despite many hours of reading threads, I'm unclear as to relationship of ROMs, themes and TouchWiz. I have two S3 I747s -- one rooted, one not. I realize that when it comes to look and feel, other than changing wallpaper and moving icons around, there's not much to be done without rooting.
1) So I know that custom ROMs have different features and functions relative to the stock ROM, and some have unique look and feel, which I assume are themes. What I don't know is how TW relates to these in a rooted phone. Is TW the stock ROM or simply the firmware that reacts to user action on the screen? Will flashing a new ROM have any effect on TW or perhaps even replace it?
2) I'm assuming themes are basically reskinning both stock and custom ROMs. I see lots of themes for, say, CM of various versions, and I see lots of themes that seem to be for rooted stock ROM phones. Do I need to find those that are specifically for an I747 to match screen resolution or will any Android theme work depending on version of OS -- ICS, JB, etc.?
3) What's the best way to back up stock theme files, and which files do I back up and then replace? I've seen references to launchers and theme selectors but am unsure what this refers to.
I'm fairly okay with stock ROM and TW but really would like to change look and feel. Anyone who runs WindowBlinds knows what I mean. I'd really like to be able to keep a number of themes on extSD and change them easily.
If there's a thread or resource that answers my questions, I'd love to know where it is. Thanks for any help.
Try various launchers like Apex or Nova

Thanks for this. So launcher is basically home screen appearance, starting apps, live widget support and additional features? They seem to have their own themes, whereas free-standing themes without changing native launcher alter look and feel of home and other screens of OS. Is that about right? I need an Android glossary.

1. TW is just Samsung's user interface, launcher. Depending what type of ROM you flash, yes TW may be replaced. If you use a ROM based on AOKP/CM10 then you will not have TW. Also certain apps like the stock camera depend on the TW framework. You can use a different launcher and replace TW as previously suggested.
2. Im not positive on this one. Right now Im running a ROM based on AOSP. When I look for a theme in Playstore I look for one that was made for CM10/AOKP. So the phone model may not matter. Of course the ones you find on this forum thread would most likely be for this model.
TouchWiz is more than just launcher. some apps, settings, lock screen, and notification drawer, are all dependent on TouchWiz.
most custom ROMs are either based from TouchWiz or AOSP.
AOSP is as close as you'll get to a Nexus phone.
but in any case of any custom ROM, or whether you're rooted or not, you can install a launcher from the Play Store to change your Home Screen and App Drawer appearance (such as Nova, Apex, and GO). then there are some custom ROMs that use one of these launchers as the default launcher in place of AOSP or TouchWiz.
also, most custom ROMs come with a custom Kernel. but there are some that just come with the stock Kernel.
Okay, I'm much clearer on TW and ROMs, but not quite sure about theme compatibility. What happens if CM theme is flashed to stock ROM phone? I want to avoid an endless boot situation, which I assume is among worst things that happen with theme incompatibility.
Do themes readily work with different phones -- i.e., run on HTC, Motorola, Galaxy, etc. with different size screens?
Finally, I'm thinking ZipThemer might be most efficient way to easily change themes as long as zips can be titled with theme name and not update.zip. I like the ability to backup and recover original theme. I still also want to have original theme files backed up somewhere else. Does anyone know names and locations of these?
