xRom themes?

I know there is xSmorg, which is just as f'n cool as Smorg is for CM, but why is there not a single other theme for xRom? I understand CM is the most widely used and therefore would have many more themes for it, but seriously, only one for xRom, and it's a port of a CM theme? To be fair, xRom doesn't need much themeing, but it would be nice to have options.

i don't know about other people, but i have not used xRom so if i made themes for it then i would have to flash it every time i needed to test something. also i am lazy and there is no template but if you like my theme then i could find the time to try and port it to xRom. shouldn't be too difficult. but yeah pm me if you would like me to try it.

I'll second xROM options all day every day!

Once xrom is finalized and the template is out I'm sure there will be themes for it. I'm sure manup will be coming out with some great stuff for it as well as other theme makers. Its just gonna take time, cyanogen's builds are so popular that everyone is overlooking the xrom which is too bad cause the xrom rocks!!

ya xroms rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess it makes sense that it'll happen eventually, I just hope it's sooner rather than later. I love cyanogen's mods, but xRom just runs so much better for me.
I haven't run Red Oreo yet, but ran kspec's oreo for a few weeks and loved it. The only thing that kept me from running Red Oreo was the colors on the screenshots, they seemed VERY vibrant and I go for a much more subdued color scheme. If the red was more like the Red Hero (deeper and darker) that would be my kind of thing. Having said that, if it was ported for xRom I would definitely give it go since there is such a lack of themes.
My idea for what I think would be a very simple theme would be to replace the green on xRom with a royal blue, something that would really stand out.

There are no themes for xROM because It has already been pimped by the man himself MANUP! so if you want themes go use a cyanogen mod!

Thats so painful to read! ><
Anyway, I don't really see what xROM has that Cyan doesn't. IMO it was designed with the intention that it would stay the way it is, so people wouldnt have to worry about flashing themes.

Yeah that logic makes perfect sense, while were at it lets have just one religion, political party, bank, fast food joint and woman. Different options is a bad thing!!!

Yeah I was with you about how good manupls **** looks, but the whole "if you want themes go with cyan thing" is just bull****.

For those who want themes for xRom or ne build for tht matter....cant u just use themeporter and port it over ? correct me if im wrong (i dont think the newupdate and old update have to be same do they ?)

the problem is that themeporter only works with theme templates ... i made one here for JACxROM, but ive not completely checked it out (sorry running CM) ... so if someone wants they can be a guinea pig and try it out

[Q] Rom Questions?

OK, OK before anyone starts flaming me and saying read honestly it's too much to read I work and have a family and cant read 1,000 post threads to get my answer.
Now that we've gotten that out of the way let's start with what i'm looking for.
I want a rom that has mostly all the stock things like sprint nav, sprint zone, gtalk, sprint football, flashlight, fm radio etc...... Most of the stock goodies or at least an option to install what i want to install from the stock apps.
Also I want a functioning 4g, 3g and possibly a free hotspot app if not no big deal. I dont want a rom where major things (or mostly anything) is broken.
Now hears the hard part which would prob bring the flame, and please be gentle guys for example virus rom looks like it has some goodies, mikfroyo, and one i really like is myn's warm two point two.
With that said i need to have my phone work not halfway working but fully working web, calls, etc.......
Is it possible to have the best of both worlds with these roms fully functionality with the beautiful customization or is it impossible.
I want opinions or experiences or suggestions and please if your not gonna help my cause you dont have to post.
Thanks in advance to all who help in any way they can

I don't know what your idea of halfway working is, because pretty much all sense roms (besides Desire HD and Desire Z) here have everything working... Myn's is no exception. If you like the way his rom looks, use it. The only roms with outstanding issues (4g and hdmi) are aosp based roms (Cyanogenmod, MIUI, LiquidE). Hope this helps.
FYI, there is a Q&A (questions and answers) section, where this post would belong

semi new
I'm semi new to the android seen but I have used all of the following:
Myn's TwoPointTow
MIUI
Synergy
Virus AirBourne
CM6
Ava-FroyoV9
Frost
Fresh
Out of all of them my personal favorite is Ava-FroyoV9. It does everything I want with no problems what so ever and has a nice look to it also.
Again, just my opinion.

Using virus anthrax and its my favorite so far . Miui looked cool but buggy. And know 4 g. Avav9 was also great myn as well.Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

You don't have to read a 1000 pages to get this info..
the Dev's have all the info your looking for in the first post of their rom threads.
They say wether or not something works or not.. and if it has the stock apps your looking for.. and MOST of them give you the .APKs to install the stock apps after if you want them on you SD card after install..
Simple as that..
Simple rules of thumb:
if its a Sense based rom, everything works.. (Desire based sense roms excluded)
if its a ASOP based rom, no HDMI or 4G yet.
and Almost all of them have the wifi-tether program install by default for hotspot. If not its EASILY installable..
and to avoid flaming wear a fire proof suit. (q&a section, there are no stupid questions there)

Azrael best Rom if u ask me
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

thanks for all you guys response and i will use the q&a section for things like this for now on and Mods if you wanna move to proper section go ahead.

I personally like xxbabiboixx and virus anthrax ROM.. just a matter of style.

funny thing is i work and have kids wife and still im able to post in the correct section and search

hahaha. lol. this is hilarious. cause i have kids, wife and a job also and just like CheesyNutz i was able to find all the information i needed by putting the time in to search for what i needed to find. it also didnt take reading 1000's of post's. but that is beyod the point...... oh wait no it is the point. he knew that he was going to get flamed for not wanting to search the forum for the info he needed. instead he just went ahead and started yet another thread asking the same question asked in other threads. maybe that is why you have to read 1000's of post's.
Okay with that being said...... I personally like AZRAEL rom and the stock sprint apk's are included in a folder that is added to the sdcard when you install the rom.

[Q] Pink Theme For My Wife Help

So i've been looking all over the place for the pink life theme done by jrummy For the Evo and have had no luck. is there a way to convert everything over?

Yeah, it can be ported over. It's very time consuming. Not a simple "conversion" process though.
If someone doesn't do it by the time I get caught up with school and if I have the free time, I'll begin working on it. No promises though, depends on how many programs I have to wright for school and how often they're assigned.

Could u give me some friendly advice. is it something easy but time consuming or hard and time consuming? ty btw for the reply

Looking further it appears he made a Metamorph for the theme also. That will make it very easy to port it over. I would just get rid of most of the .xml layouts he has in the theme and just stick to the images and you could do it in no time.
I assume your wife has a EVO? PM and I'll send you a beta for it..You'll need ZipThemer from the market(free) to apply it and then flash it..

lol..nice~

My wife wants a pink theme for her EVO as well. That one for the droid is very nice!

That theme does look great! I wish it was for the EVO. I would absolute the rock the **** out of it.

can you send me the beta for it also, the link that you have in your other post doesnt work. thanks.

Once this is out of beta, I have a friend who is interested in a Pink theme, however, she is running the stock rooted deodexed rom.
Will it work there?

Was this ever ported over. My sister really likes the look of this theme and their isn't very many options for pink themes. Ported to work on CM7 for the EVO would be excellent.

Let me know what rom she is using... if you can PM it to me, I'll throw something together for ya. And if you give me her name... I'll put it on the dropdown, too.

hi guys, can anyone one of you pls post a simple yet attractive theme which conserves the least amount of battery & looks pretty good ???
i desperately want it.

i prefer dark background with white letters & fonts would be best...
i hope someone here can help me.
i saw one user posting his desktop in post your desktop thread. but he has never told us the steps he used to get that theme.
i request him to pls share his settings her, as we know what kind of softwares he has used to get that effect....

We all had to start somewhere ..If he needs help or more info then he only has to ask ..
Some of us on XDA work together as a community...
The help and advice if there if he wants it ...if not then that's fine..
The point of your post is ? ...

I agree we where all newbies at one time, even i am just getting to grips with it.
All the help you need is on this forum, dont be afraid to ask.

Re:
Sorry didnt see that you have seen the post your desktop thread, but the answer to your questions are within that thread itself.
Most of the posters have mentioned the software they have used (Launchers, widgetlocker, icon packs, backgrounds) etc. I agree its a pain to navigate through the pages looking for this kind of info but hey its wortht the effort! I am a newbie to Android too and the post your desktop thread has taught me so much, most of the software listed there is free and on the Android market too.
Personally I am using Simi clock, battery and weather widgets along with the 'Beautiful widgets'. Try these for a start.

I was hoping I could change a theme, ie the look of the icons, the fonts etc without having to flash a ROM....I have flashed ROM's before but I always found the phone to become a bit unstable afterwards. (This was on the SE X1 so perhaps it was the crappy phone rather than the ROM!!)
I can't see anywhere how to change the global icons or the global font's and things.
I was hoping you could just install/uninstall a theme...but it doesn't look like you can do such a thing.
I have Widget Locker and Launcher Pro but none of those seem to allow a total global theme...
Will Go Launcher EX enable me to do all that?

Pure android theme/rom/tweak? (not w/ sprint ID)

Hey all, this is one of my first post here, but I have been a user since the original Moto Droid. Before asking any questions I wanted to thank EVERYONE here who has helped me & the Mods for keeping this place so neat and clean!
Does anyone know of a way to get the pure android experience on this phone? (i.e. sms, dialer, icons, lock screen, etc) Like what comes on the new Galaxy Nexus!?
Please forgive me if this has been addressed already, I couldn't find anything with any solutions or definite answers.
Thanks!
