Themes for stock EC05?? - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey is there a theme that will work for the stock EC05?? Just curious. I actually like the stock ROM and how I have everything set up. Im just wondering if there was any theme that would work on it. I do not want to be the test/crash dummy so if anyone knows if one works would be very helpful. Thanks in advanced.

The first thing you need is to run a deodex version of ec05 because you can't theme a stock rom. I have two themes that work on ec05, froyo crystalline and giger. Fucshia fusion too if your a fan of pink!

This is probably a really stupid question, but is there a deodexed version of stock EC05 available?
I just upgraded to EC05 and getting WAY better battery life than I was with EB13, but I am getting sick of the stock ROM, most specifically the stock lockscreen.
Thanks for any help!

Flash a custom rom since you said you are sick of stock.

Hey Dream,
Not sure if you know but the link in your sig is broken. I am new to this so could you explain what part of theming requires you to be deodexed? I am wondering because I recently started screwing around with changing the icons. Just curious to know what my limitations are and when being deodexed becomes a requirement or what benefits you get from being deodexed. Thanks for any info you can provide.

i want stock ec05 rfs just deodexed so i can theme it to the gingerbread theme.

Me too! I'm happy with the stock rom, its giving me better battery life than the few custom rom's I've tried.
I'm easily getting 20 hours on stock rom where I was getting no more than 10-12 hours on a custom rom, with all the same settings.
I miss the aosp gingerbread theme!
I am using launcher pro so I don't have to deal with touchwiz, but I miss the aosp lockscreen and transparent notification pull down and blacked out notification bar

Yeah I agree with most of you. I am getting GREAT battery life. I am not experiencing the TWS bug or anything. My TWS is always at 0% when I check it. And my battery life is the best that I have ever had on this phone. I do not want a custom ROM..But would like a deodexed version of the stock ROM so I can use themes. Anyone feeling generous enough to make it happen for all of us?? Pwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaase!!!!

Well, I agree. I find myself venturing off and trying custom roms, but I always seem to go back to stock for reliability. I just cant seem to find a rom that just works as well as stock. I would also like to see a deodexed version of stock.
If I could ultimately choose a perfect setup it would be Stock, deodexed, zipaligned, No carrier iq, kernel wired tether support, and TV-OUT.

sorry missed this. deodex comes into play when you start editing xmls deep, simple icons are not a problem.

[REQ]Ginger Bread Based theme for EI22

Before I rooted the damn phone I had Ginger Bread on it, and quite frankly I enjoyed looking at the notification bar and seeing how basic it was. To me the whole concept of the stock theme was pretty sweet because it was just simple. I'm sure there's a theme that looks like this but I haven't been able to find one, so I decided to post here hoping for a few links from the people who know what I'm talking about. If you can't tell by reading this I am a n00b so id appreciate it if you guys weren't dicks about this... thanks!

EI22 IS Gingerbread. If u want a "stock Gingerbread look", why not just flash Toad's Clean GB ROM, its the closest thing to stock untouched GB with lots of little goodies/tweaks
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
Yeah I know its ei22, I was jus5 being specific so nobody thinks I want it for el30, and I think I mixed up gb with froyo. So if you know of any froyo themes for ei22 id appreciate it!

??? Why would you want a crappy theme? Just flash cm7 and find cm7 themes on the market. There is one called cm7 galaxy s theme that is like our froyo. If you attempted at grammar and didn't swear I could probably help better. I don't even know what version/rom your phone is on...
1. What rom are you on
2. What is your android version (2.2/2.3/4.0)
3. What theme do you want (2.2/2.3)
4. If you are on gingerbread, just flash cleangb or stockish rom.

Yea I'm well aware my grammar was bad as it was 3 in the morning when I posted that and I was tired, but when I flash to cleangb my colors are, well they're just weird... they are way off from where they are when I'm marcusant rom... and I download voodoo controls but it says my kernel isn't support when it is (samurai). And the color thing is the same for cm7... I appreciate your help!

Yes, the hue and tint is very off. But I fixed it and put my magic to the works and got it working! All I did was open the zip on my pc and change the kernels lol but its fixed now. I'm on Clean GB 1.1.2 and is fitting me well. My only complain is that the notification bar is black, I'm not a themer do I don't know if that's the framework.apk or not so I'll just let it be until a theme I like is released!

[Q] Interest in a Senseless ROM?

Hi guys! I've had an Evo for a while and I was just wondering whether anyone would be interested in a senseless ROM. I run it on my own phone but I have never shared it. Just leave me some feedback please!
Not trying to burst bubbles or anything, but there are already some senseless roms here. Share if ya want, though. Thanks. Good luck.

running MikG v.3.11/ ICS themed with the badass Underworld kernel.
Probably 75% of the people in this forum are running AOSP instead of Sense.
I prefer senseless over aosp. What is the base?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA
The base is Stock Swag and it includes the stock gingerbread launcher with SMS instead of browser. I could make an Xperia version including the Sony Sound tweaks and launcher.
throw it up on the wire and let's see it. we can always use more choice.

[REQ] Replace TouchWIz Themed Apps on ICS

Hi there,
So after playing with vanilla ICS and then getting the ICS Leak for our cappys I've come to hate TW because it takes away from the beauty of ICS.
I found a few guides on how to replace the TW Stock Apks with Vanilla Apks however, due to TW frameworks you can't replace the dialer or contacts.
Is there anyone who would like to help me in fixing this? I've tried several things and none of them have worked thus far. Suggestions?

That seems to be a guide to replace dialer on 2.3.5 (which back in black is made on). I think on ICS its not worth even trying, too much dependencies

oh.
I say just install a custom ROM. That's what I did. Running Nardholio's right now but I'll probably switch to dman's CM9 or AOCP once some of the bugs are worked out.

[Q] Theme Compatibility

Hi i just rooted my galaxy S3 and was finally able to get a custom rom on it, FrostyJB 11.2.1 to be exact. However im looking at themes i want to add but im not sure how themes work and if they are all compatible or if some are not. Any info would be great thx.
Yeah youre gonna have to look around the forum as some themes work only on a specific ROM.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Thats the thing I dont see the themes say anything about if they are compatible with certain roms or not.
There's usually not a whore lot won't write with trial and error so long as you have a COMPLETE cwm or twrp backup handy
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Make a titanium backup first! (May take up to 20 minutes like mine does). Then go to the themes and apps section and there you'll find a couple. Wasabi has an aroma zip that can be flashed through custom recovery and that alone has 19 amazing themes. He did a banging job. I'm running the HTC one
Sent from my Rooted Gameboy
Pardon my grammatical errors earlier.. Wow. ADD mixed with Swype can be a rough combo. Anyway, Wasabi's themes are excellent. I know though there were a few issues with systemui crashing on some Rom's, but that's has most likely been fixed by now. The Domination theme by Deviant is bad ass, but I assume it's only for the Domination Rom. So basically, like I said, trial and error. Just keep a backup in case you run into trouble.

We have the same rom, I've been using lantek's aroma installer, and wild child's aroma installer, with frosty i think he posted a link on his rom thread, and wild child has a link on one of his rom threads, name was xquizit v11 kitchen, both working excellent on frosty rom
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Ok after going through wasabi's thread i noticed someone saying that the themes are not working with the rom i have FrostyJB v 11.2.1 because of some kinda 23 toggle feature (have no idea what that is lol) so im kinda scared as to try flashing that on my phone. They also suggested that you shud downgrade to 11.1 as more themes are compatible. Does anyone have any experience with themes working on 11.2.1 or is it bad for themes.
Also i have been playing around with the Nova Launcher and have a nice layout that i can work with, I have a question about the status bar tho. Is there anyway to change the Battery, wifi, data, etc. symbols to blue instead of the green ones without having to flash anything or is that the only way.

If I was you I would stay away from themes alltogether because i put a theme on one of the roms by the same people that made frostyjb and guess what, battery was draining right before my eyes, every few seconds a percentage fell.

You can customize things and it is faster. Flash it and see. If you don't like it restore your nandroid

I think it's on par with stock rooted. I tried v2 and v3 and it's just not that big of a deal. It doesn't seem worth it.
I used to run FreeGS3 on my first S3 (from ICS 4.0, before it got stolen) and it was the best of the best. Very lean and great battery life and very nice involved developer. Then it started getting more and more "feature" wise with things i considered silly fluff, but most were optional which i liked anyway, pick what you want or not.
After replacing my S3 a month ago, i decided to run stock TouchWiz rooted and have kept it that way ever since. Same battery life, fast, stable, solid.
In my opinion, stock rooted is what i find the best. But if ask me what the best custom ROM is out there, i'd still recommend FreeGS3.

It's really lean and fast but I say make a nandroid back up flash rom and try it for your self if you don't like it restore your set up
My very first Rom I flashed was FreeGs3 by Clark44 and I very much enjoyed it. I flashed the newest one about a week ago, ( I'm a self confessed flashaholic) and I know for a fact the wi-Fi tether works. It's a nice Rom I would recommend it

I too ran stock rooted for a while before picking freegs3. I love this Rom. It is basically a stock tw rim with added features that you can choose to install or not at flash. It is also very customizable via morphology..you can change toggle colors, toggle background, status bar background, battery, Wi-Fi, 3g cell icons and colors. You can also customize your dialer background and colors. There are also full themes or you can change just what you want.
You have gotta try this Rom...I get amazing battery life with the stock kernel. It's also amazingly fat and smooth. I get no fcs.
Hope this helps.

freegs3 issue
I have a stock rooted GS3. I used odin and had CWMR. I downloaded TWRP ran that and made a backup. Then when i tried running the Freegs3 rom following the instructions from qbking77's video. I did everything like in the video and saw all the same results he was seeing in the video but when it was finished and it went to reboot i didnt see the sonic logo and my phone went right back into TWRP. I tried rebooting a few times but it always right back into recovery mode. Finally I wiped everything again and restored to my back-up of the stock root. Has anyone seen or heard of this before? Anyone have any tips of suggestions of what i may be doing wrong? any help would be appreciated. Thanks
