Is it possible to create a theme even if yur not rooted...
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
No. In order to use a flashable theme, you have to have a deodexed rom and a recovery. In order to have a custom recovery or deodexed rom, you have to be rooted. You can customize your phone with a common "theme", but not the way rooted phones do by changing the framework and system apps.

There's a few small tweaks you can make as a non-rooted user. You can install Launcher Pro or ADW launcher and then you can theme it without being rooted, but that's about it. The big stuff though (notification bar, apps, HTC's flip clock, etc) does require root.

Hello everyone
I need help on How to remove the HTC Wallpapers.. I have successfully removed the Wallpapers using Root Explorer but the folder option is still there.
How Do I get rid of the folder option??(circled in the picture)

I've wondered the same thing.
I believe it is cooked into Rosie. Different launchers show different options for wallpaper selection.
I expect you would have to open up the Rosie APK with smali/baksmali stuff and change something.

Agreed. I wish all this stuff was more modular, instead of when you buy an android phone you have to not only pick carrier and hardware specs, but also if you want to be stuck with sense or blur or touch wiz or whatever.

Hey, after TW 4.0 is really working for our device, I was wondering if it was possible someone could work on a theme port like this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1058221
It would go great with the new EE03 ROMs since it is Gingerbread and it just looks amazing!
(Although, please, don't change the notification bar like they did! I hate battery % mods, lol)
Oh, and also can someone include the green CRT overscroll animation and some of the other green parts (like the text and copy and paste icons)

To each in own but i like the % battery it shows the regular bar as well as the % so i you cant really complain there but if its going to be such a hassle why not make 2 diff. versions if alot of people request that. i doubt it though.
Also this theme is pretty stock and just like the stock Gingerbread theme so i hardly doubt that this is going to be ported.
Not to be mean

Well, the battery % thing is just a me thing. I don't really care if it's there; it just makes me more obsessed with battery life.
Second, the icons are pretty different and would be an interesting addition combined with the new TW 4.0.
I know it doesn't have major theme changes, but it's sleek and feels more up-to-date with the GS II in my opinion.
Great idea that new touchwiz look is sexy
I like that. Looks awesome.

I tried to start
Since my internet just turned to crap recently I can't download stuff quickly.
I downloaded like 2 stock gs2 rom files (took about a whole day each) and they were both password protected so I couldn't un zip them
that's where I kinda gave up

For the theme I posted in the OP.
How do I get rid of the green in the wifi and signal bars? And how to get the samsung font back in stock?

Unless you know how to edit images, then your only option is to flash a theme for 4.1. Look in the market for a font changer. There is one by a guy named jrummy that has alot of fonts and is pretty simple to use.
Thanks bro! Helped out alot

Absolutely. Just pull it out of a stock EL30 ROM and push it to system/app and reboot.

i was messing around with ice cream touchwiz (on the epic touch) and noticed it gives lets you create folders inside the app drawer! if so, that is all i've been waiting for. I LOVEEEE Go launcher, but would want to try touchwiz if someone can confirm the folders in app drawer in our release!!

Pretty sure there are several launchers including the default one on CM9 that allow folders on the homescreen. On CM9 if you drop an app on another app it creates a folder.

Ask the dev of that Rom because taking my files needed for ripple will effectively make it alliance because of the amount of files involved

There's an s3 style system ui in the forum as again...taking mine would add all my other mods too.
Can I ask...if the ROM you want has less/none of the stuff you want, why do you want it? What ROM is it?

Cause i used your rom and the aettings ui and all the other stuff doesnt look likr galaxy s 3 it looks like pure ics with launcher and icons thats it.
I dont say your rom os bad, on fqct i really like it but its missing some of the sgs3 stuff i wanted.
Oh and one more thing when i installed the rom costumizer i didnt found the rom settings panel, is this because i dont have your rom. If this is the reason so can you give me the settings panrl with all the lockscreens and aettings please

Lolol. Yes no settings cos youre not on my rom. But no even if i gave it you it wont work. The settings app just changes database. The lockscreens and mods aren't in the app they're in the framework!!
If you read a little you would have seen that you can download a full s3 theme from ota in my ROM.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
I worked a little on this subject and here are my conclusions :
- S3 Notification panel can be installed on any LPX Roms using MOD like Mirko SystemUI (I mad a S3 theme for it),
- Ripple Lockscreen mod is built on framework files & SystemUI, it is very hard to extract to make it work on any ROM (I tried it hard beleive me),
- If you realy want Ripple Lockscreen MOD : install Widget Locker & Ripple mod (see dedicated HowTo in this forum) or better install a ROM like Alliance or Simplistic which provide a full framework that is rock stable and fully customisable.
