[Q] Help - Not sure which ROM to go for ?! - Galaxy S II Themes and Apps

Hi guys im a new android user - about a week old now.
I recently flashed to Lite'ning coz people are talking about it and i guess its popular.
Im not happy with the icons and blue/black theme that comes with it.
Which ROM should I go for if i want to achieve the below theme? I have read a few good ones VillainROM / LeoMar ? What are your suggestions?

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

the very last image looks like Launcher Pro. The lock screen could be done with Widget Locker. Not sure about the first two home screens.
I'm running SensioN ROM currently. Happy with the way it looks, performs. Battery life seems better than stock, also.

I'm personally using VillainROM, and it's great. I love it, and would recommend it.
However, I'm also planning to check out Cognition 1.32 when it comes out.

Hi, I'm not sure from which Rom/themes those icons are..I was also from Villain to Litening, great Roms but now on Leomar since the last 2 days..more customizations available and many themes/options you can choose from the kitchen app! Easy to try it..just download the Revolution app from the market (link also provided from the Leomar sub forum)
then just download the rom from there..make sure you have back up your device using CWM first as this is a wipe ROM...good luck!

The latest MIUI Tom is fast, stable and extremely pleasing on the eye.
With base MIUI you get the best of Android mixed with the best of ios, clean and easy to use.
If you want it more Android do as I do and run ADWex or Launcher Pro on top.... makes for the best user experience in my opinion. I have tried many custom ROMS but keep coming back to MIUI.

The first two pictures are from MIUI.
Not sure about the last one, but guess it could be done by applying custom theme and launcher.

ROM.Batista70_3.5_By_SnakeS( which seems to be removed from xda) + Kernel.ninphetamine-2.0.5
Good battery life and nice to look at.

I'm using LeoMar's ROM as his ROM Kitchen gives you plenty of customisations options to choose from. It's like building a ROM the way you want it. I use MIUI from time to time - The most recent update has gotten ALOT better.

I suggest Leo's rom. Super battery life and great performance.

Please if its possible leave the color of the battery and whole notification bar intact. I love that kind of neon blue and the dialpad
what rom are you using
right now I'm using MIUI 1.1.28 because the FROIS-02 theme run perfect on that rom. Waiting for the CM6.1 theme fix to do the change to Cyanogen

That looks epic...

Do this theme(when finished) can be used in CM6.1.2 with ADW launcher EX??
Or if possible extract the icons to install them using the ADW icon editor
I wish this theme would work on a sense rom. I have been playing around with some of the files today adding some images to my framework. It would definitely make an awesome theme for sense or non-sense roms.
Thats looking pretty good

It looks good. Nice to know that more than one person its working on this theme
Any news on this theme???

p.s if you are responsible for graphics or the modding of APK let me know and i shall place credit where Credit is due
Thanks mate! Really nice
Very beautiful...I'll use it!!!
thank you i will try
Can you make more of these widgets, really loved this one
Really beautiful, works in ICS 4.0.3 Retail deodexed XXLPQ?
ive even had this installed onto miui and an Xperia Arc s and HTC Desire u just cant tap it for clock options
looks really good m8
what is the Date widget called, i really like it!
Nice one cheers looks great, working on custom ICS LPQ.
If only someone could mod it to give clock options when tapped.
this looks cool...
works like a charm on cm9,maybe you will try to port also SGS Weather widget
this was ported over by basically removing what's required from touchwiz thus it wouldn't go well with weather
How about accu weather?

Try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.th.android.widget.gTabsimiClock&hl=en
Free, low resource, customizable and stable.
Can you release the widget with the ICS roboto-font and without frame?

i recently had to update my machine but right now im reinstalling photoshop and such ill soon upload a version with no boarder and also a inversed version with the white being black for those with a bright white wallpaper to make it stand out better.

[CM7][Share]A Refined MIUI(v4) theme! + Accessories & Launcher

*note* this is a share, thank the developer for the hard work
Yesterday when i was searching for the MIUI clock I came by this awesome theme:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1454641
A very good option for those who are waiting for the final miui gb/ics.
It's theme is very detailed and the best miui theme for cm7 I used so far. There is a bundle of accessories to download as well as a modified MIUI Launcher, if you just scroll down on the linked page.
Additionally, it includes many themed icons as well as modified apps like the phone, sms, clock, browser etc.

[Q] Core droid theme change to any other!?

Hello, ive got the CoreDroid Rom on my HOX, i love the ROM's of Sergio&Co, but the theme of v3.5 is the first of CD where i say its a no-go for me, the Background in Drawer, and the icons... ...
my question is:
can i change the theme of CD to any other maybe from a other rom?
sorry for my Englisch and thanks for answers.
It's better not to since they use custom settings now CD Suite will be coimng out so the themes that's designed specially for that ROM will only work.

If you are not liking certain aspects of the CoreDroid theme, please have a look at our Themes & MOds thread here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601719
Here there are several mods for app drawer background as well as many other mods.
Regarding the icons, you you want them to look different on your home screens, use an app called Desktop Visualiser. It allows you to use your own icons to replace the ones we include.
New build coming soon with even more options! :good:

[Q] Need Stability!!

Over the past three weeks Have been trying assortment of roms. Dont like the look and feel of TW. I like the abilities of CM because i can shut of the phantom menu, but i have been getting wakelocks and LOS and the rotation is slow or doesnt even work. especially after hanging up calls.
I would just like a recomendation for a stable ROM with no LOS and customizable. Battery i know depends on the phone so i wont even ask.
Or even fixes for those problems. I am currently on CM 10.1rc2 build date 9/18
Have you tried some of the themed TouchWiz ROMs? That's where you're gonna get stability... Here's my latest if you dare to try it mwahaha (mad scientist laugh)-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2320041.. I've got a 4.3 AOSP version on there too but I wouldn't recommend that for stability.

Pretty much, check out the huge features list in Post #1
Looks very nice. the launcher seems very comparable to apex launcher. love to gesture to get to things. ill add some high contrast icons, because i work outside and need to see. Thank you. will report back after i give it a whirl. in case somebody else has the same question.
Really loving rom. Have question about unlock screen. I changed it to aosp but I can't find any where to change the targets..and thanks for the inverted play store. Have the app.but I always screw up installation and give up.I always search, hence only 10 posts in over 2 years
Can't change targets.
