I want to use launcher pro but im quite confused on how to theme it and where i can find themes too. If someone can aid me that would be wonderful. Thanks

Certain aspects of Launcher Pro are not that theme-able for noobs. For example, the widget backgrounds are not png images but hard coded colors. However, XDA member Signals23 has put together several themes and updates them regularly. Here is the link:

Also, if you check out the forums over at launcherpro there are a few others floating around. I know Benny879 from Droidforums has put together a Gingerbread theme and also a Galaxy S theme for Launcher Pro.

Hi guys,
Ive been searching around and I can't find a Galaxy S theme. There is one called Gala S but that is for the Nexus One.
Anyone able to make one or port over the Gala S theme?

I just finished a new beta for theme-porter. Wht i added was a "hdpi-to-mdpi" toggle accompanied by a renaming loop which will rename the appropriate folders. I just gave it a whirl by testing on framework-res of this galaxy s nexus theme on a D/S framework-res cm6 rc3. Results are not too bad actually, need some minor touch-ups. I'll post that beta in a few on my thread.
Here u go Link
There's galaxy s themes for ADWLauncher on the market. Their not "full" themes, but they change your icons and wallpaper giving you at least some of the "feel" of it. You can also put horizontonal scrolling and the scrolling dots at the top, as well as change the notification bar color though CMsettings.

thanks danesham, I have seen your theme porter before. I wasn't sure if it was going to work. Will give it a go.
Ive looked around for galaxy s ADW themes but I couldn't find any, are they on the market? Are they called Galaxy S theme?

WOW great thanks! This is exactly what I was looking for.....however I dropped my dream into some water yesterday i know im an idiot! No the call button isnt working and the phone always thinks I'm holding it sideways!!
Thanks a lot though, hope this help other people looking for this!
WOW, the TW3 launcher is actually pretty nice and smooth, I really like it :3
Any themes/icon sets though?
EDIT: Only complaint with TW3 Launcher is that default home screen is all the way to the left, any fix for this?
Works Great.........loving it
Hi I have seen various screenshots of people that have some really cool docks, how do you get those? as well as themes?
Most people use ADW Launcher or LauncherPro for docks. Both are available in the market. I prefer LauncherPro myself.
You can check my themed rom thread, in the addon packs for my GTX theme you'll find some nice docks, wallpapers, and icons that you can use with any rom, as long as you're using launcherpro.

Ok, I got the themes thing down. Now I'm seeing different lock screens, different homescreen menus, as far as the bottom of the screen with phone, internet, mail and things like that. How can I get the ones I'm liking?

you can also flash themes. those change lockscreens, and other non-apk things that theme chooser can't. not sure what ur talking about 'bottom of the screen'.
I just flashed cyanogenmod and at the bottom of the main screen I have a phone icon, menu icon and the internet icon. But I've seen others that have phone, Gmail, internet and a few others

That is all in the settings of the launcher you are using. I'm using launcher pro and have a different layout with the matted blues theme. Lock screen is widgetlocker. (Highly recommend) With battery status widget and minimal text widget.
I think you're talking about docks, widgetlocker themes, and whatnot. These aren't included in themes, people gather them from different places and put them together.
Depending on what home app you're using, you may be able to change the dock background. All home replacement apps (at least the major, reputable ones) allow for changing of dock icons. Head over to the Android Themes section and check out the stuff there. The "Post Your Homescreen" thread would be a good place to look and get ideas. I'm sure there's some noob guide to theming.
If you want your lockscreen to look like the screenshots you see, get Widgetlocker. It's around $2, but more than worth it. There's a thread of themes to change your sliders, check it out if you decide to buy the app. Also check out the FAQ thread for WidgetLocker to help you figure it out.
The three most popular home replacement apps are LauncherPro/LauncherPro Plus, ADW Launcher/ADW Ex, and Go Launcher Ex. My personal favorite is ADW Ex, a lot of people are die-hard LP+ users. I personally don't care for Go, it felt kind of clunky and tacky to me, but a lot of people like it because it has the features of paid launchers for free.
All of the home apps I mentioned allow for changing the dock background except for the free ADW (as far as I know). You can find dock backgrounds and icons here on xda in the themes section.
Have fun!

And here are the icons if you want to use them I did not make these. All credit goes to ManUp. He did a great job on them. Do not flash this zip, just open it up and the icons will be there.

Not at all, actually I was gonna ask you where you got the 960*800 MB wall. When I was on CM7, I would only run the nightlies that Matted Blues was compatible with... absolutely my favorite theme evar. The only version of that wallpaper I could find was too small, you mind attaching it for me?
I wear dresses and wax my eyebrows, but that doesn't make Matted Blues girly

Docks! thats what I was trying to say .. thanks ... i followed your advice/directions and I was able to change the dock with ADW Launcher Ex ... i went from being completely ignorant to no being a noob .. lol .. thanks for all your help guys .. i'm sure I'll have some more questions soon ... just gotta get the lock screen screen thing down now ... gonna go see what I can do
Hey guys. I have been on CM7 for a while now but have never used or even looked at the Theme Engine before. I was hoping that you guys could answer a few basic questions about it:
1. Are these THEMES also launchers as well? Currently I am using CM7 with GoLauncher. If I install a Theme will it replace Go Launcher as the default launcher or will it theme Go Launcher?
2. Is there a massive thread that has a list of all the CM7 Themes? I have only been able to find individual theme threads (MattedBlues, etc.)
3. I like custom icons but I hate when I have apps that aren't supported...they stick out like a sore thumb on the desktop. Is that the issue with the THEME ENGINE themes or do they alter the default icons on their own?
Thanks in advance!
1)the themes dont overwrite your launcher,use what you prefer.
2)I believe there is a thread somewhere with all themes try google,there is also alot of them on the market.
3)some themes do have custom icons,depends on what the theme creator included.
Here's a list of some themes.you want HDPI for the evo http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1046108

Thanks a lot for your input guys! I tried a few out. The only thing I'm not liking is when there are custom icons. More than likely they don't have customized icons for ALL the apps you want to display on your desktop. Then you either have to have ugly mismatching icons or remove the unsupported icons from your desktop altogether.
Can any of you guys advise on a THEME that themes all your existing icons?

Thank you Fergie....that is the exact idea I was looking for. Do you know if there is a black theme that has a similar effect (making all of your icons have a dark/black tint? I already tried DarkGinger. but it only has customized icons...and not very many of them.
I have been trying out different themes for my phone, but what I came to notice is that not all of the icons match the theme and stay stock, and it looks stupid. Is there any way around this?
usually theme creators only theme the most common apps
Guess you gotta stick with the themes that don't mod the icons then

I'm talking about themes downloaded from the market for ADW.Launcher on CM7.2 RC3.
Your not going to find an adw theme that changes all apps. What you can do is if there is a popular app that is not themed, you can always contact the dev and ask nicely that it be put into the next update. I think a lot of devs just hit the basics and post to market quickly to make a few bucks. But some of the better ones will actually take the time to listen to their customers and incorporate requests.

What about some of the lettered icon packs?(Icon pack A,B,C, etc.) I've noticed there are a few if them, so maybe try those and see if they have what you're looking for.
A couple of devs have even posted numerous packs of 50-100 icons each....they are paid, but they should cover just about everything.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda premium
Also some themes don't have direct replacment icons, rather, they have a lot of generic icons. For instance, if you use a 3rd party twitter app, you can use the stock Twitter icon.
