You can download a complete working template of a theme chooser theme here (Along with a short guide / how-to create a theme)

(Get the compiled theme from here - http://bit.ly/hdEWsf as stated in that thread - it is basically the 'extracted' contents of a Theme Chooser Theme)
Thank you!

Hey Guys,
Here is my new Theme called Erebos. I used pele's Black Android Theme as my Base.
There are so many good themes out there, but none of theme could make me really happy, so i decided to create my own theme. This is my first theme and my goal was it to make a really simple and elegant Theme like pele did. That's why you will not find many colours in it
So, what did i change?
- reworked Framework-res.apk
- reworked twframework.apk
- contacts.apk
- dialertabactivity.apk
- phone.apk
- mediaprovider.apk
- clockpackage.apk
- settings.apk
- black market
- black glass gingerbread keyboard
- Android Original Boot Animation
Here are some screenshots that you can imagine how it looks like:
Please make sure, that u have a backup up before flashing my theme.
i'm not responsible for any damage.
Have fun with Erebos !!!
How to Install:
You need a deodexed Rom to install this theme !!!
Download the Zip file and put it on your internal SD Card
Reboot into Clockword Mod Recovery
Choose : install zip from SD Card -> Choose zip file
Users reported that this theme works on:
DocROM JS8 9.9.5 / DocROM v11 JPK
Darkys Rom 9.3 / 9.4 / 9.5
Criskelo's ROM
This theme is not working on JVK !!!
Unfortunately i sold my galaxy s yesterday so there's no gingerbread version of erebos coming. I'm really sry that i can't support this thread anymore. i'm changing to the optimus speed or galaxy s II when it's out and will port my theme to one of these devices then.
Download Erebos 1.3

Hi There Guys,
I am trying to make a perfect ROM for Android with
Check ROM and WP7 Metro UI
I've noticed that there is a CM7 Theme for Metro UI
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1219691 - WP7 Theme
But i dont know too much on theme porting and making, as far i've studied i've manage to make a simple port of the theme.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/checkrom/files/Theme/All DK Versions/WP7_test.zip/download
It's a theme test for WP7 its very buggy and confusing, but the theme system its great don't need to compile anything just put the files and the System will flash them.
If any Themer want to help me porting this theme i will be very appreciated
There is another porting ideas too but haven't started those yet.

No one want some of this themes on Galaxy S 2?
I would like it, but I don't have the knowledge to help u :/
You'll just have to open up the apps you want themed (settings.apk for settings icons, sysyemui.apk for status bar battery etc) with winrar and add and overwrite the corresponding images that you want replaced. To edit XML files for font size, color etc, you'll have to use apktool to decompile the apps first.

Was wondering if anyone out there knows of a way to take a theme chooser (apk) theme and turn it into a zipthemer theme. I know you can extract the apk just as if it were a zip file but I don't know what images go into what packages for zipthemer. Essentially I have a theme that was free that I love but I just upgraded my ROM to pa3.94 which doesn't have theme chooser anymore so I'm hoping there's a way to create a zipthemer theme with the extracted theme chooser theme. Anyone? Thank you in advance for any help.

There are several ways to do what you want to do, regardless from the fact that I hate roms without theme chooser and I have the strong suspect that this feature or similar will be officially integrated in KLP 5.0, hopefully, but:
1) you can create a vrtheme.zip, this way you only need a deodex system/app and the images will be flashed into the apk's, so non need for theme chooser
2) an easy one is UOT kitchen, you can create a basic theme composed by framework and systemUI, ofc you want to flash the output from the kitchen with a custom recovery, so no need for theme chooser..I don't know how is the support with android 4.x.x, but since it's very popular I asuume it will support latest android release (not sure for 4.3 specifically)
3) you can use exposed framework, just google "xposed framework" it will give you a lot of results, pick up one and start learn how it works..indeed it's basically a series of modules (apk) that allow you a series of customizations, among them, theming ones (battery, background, statusbar icons..etc)
4) but I understand this is probably out of your skills (just assuming, no offence), you can theme framework and systemUI to obtain what you want..you said the theme it's free, so you can do this, but it's very complicated, it implies xml edits, not just a right collocations of png's
5) You can also build a rom from source, and cherry pick the theme chooser code both from cyanogen git or aosp git (from a rom like slim rom or purity that has theme chooser as a feature in their code)...ofc, this is a dev job, I did it once on aosp, and it's not easy at all...theme chooser is more than two apk's, it requires a lot of framework edits, both in smali code and in the apk itslef, and a series of edits in setting.apk...very long way, very complicated, results are not 100% stable if you don't know exactly what you're doing..I mention this way of obtain what you asked just for the sake of the question.
..that's all I have to share for now..I personally use (when it's needed) vrtheme system, it's fast and clean, and allows you some xml customizations, but speaking frankly I eneded up using only rom that support theme chooser. Hope this helps:good:
ps. if you need further explanations, just ask me here, I'll help you as much as I can, but for now, take a look at the links below

Have you got any issues with this theme chooser ?
I was looking to use it, but hesitating , can you please provide for experience with this.
yes i do notice an issue.....
the issue is that when i open a theme choser after that i click on app themer it minimizes and the themer logo appears by clicking that logo it says unfortunately theme chooser haf stop.....so thats why im asking for old theme chooser link please give me the link....
Will it work on aicp r4?
Is this legit? Is there an official download link or a post that announces the new theme chooser?
it's working ??? thanks god i have backed up my old one
here is one of my favourite themes: :good:
The original "vivid" theme. You will find the link for it there ->
http://forum.xda-developers.com/asc...wei-p8-themes-sounds-fonts-cust-apps-t3091581
Than the original theme was modified with ->
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mixapplications.themeeditor&hl
See the attached pictures!
This should be only a suggestion to do! No download for this modified theme available! You have to create it by yourself if you like it. All needed icons are inside the theme editor!
info: vivid theme = all backgrounds for apps are white - dailer; sms; contacts etc. - only the desktop and look-screen are dark!
After modding it, you have to install this modified theme and than to reboot your device to see all modifications!
