Hopefully this will result in some "Adult" themes instead of the kid/pastel/pink crap we have to choose from now.

No Joke... The current themes are awful. Everyone's going nuts over COGUL Black. IDK, I don't get it.
So before I posted this thread I went through the application process to 'partner' with Samsung but I don't have any valid samples to submit and that's a requirement to get the damn tool. Does anyone have a stock image set I can use to create some samples? I'd screenshot it myself but my S6E is still a week away. I'm pretty good at iconography.

I can't find that theme you're talking about. Is it paid?
Personally I love the del.com coffee theme is really simple and red and black theme is great , I use nova launcher so use my own icons and wallpaper . But I love the phone contacts and drop down notifications the theme offers . This was a great move by samsung and I cannot wait for the talented devs on this site to show their worth.
A nice full black and neon red theme would be nice . Black for the amoled . Cannot wait I check the theme store all the time .

I submitted some of my past work and what I think most users want (straight inverted themes without all the gimmicks), so well see.
The black/blackout themes are popular because many eyes are tired of being blinded by the millions of tiny searchlights shining in their retinas at full power! When you have an AMOLED display with contrast ratio of infinity, it's a waste to have a white theme, IMHO.
Again, IMHO, nothing looks better than your icons floating in what seems to be the vast darkness of space. The all white ruins it and wastes power.
Bring on the blacked out look! I love the blacked out themes!
anyway to apply a theme w/o the background and keyboard theming?
Do you guys think that custom roms will be able to com with its own themes as the default one? That will be awesome man!! And that will really make roms more unique ??

Not that I know of...I've decompiled the phone and contacts and its much more complicated then aosp that I'm use to.
I can't even find an older lg dialer that's been inverted to try and compare.

you can try team blackout here on xda and I think they have there own website. I think they have inverted apks and just maybe you can ask them to theme the OGP. I know they have a dark dialer and contact already but since I'm not rooted I did look very deep into it. but team blackout might be a good place to start.

Yeah that is a nice looking dialer. I dont see anything wrong with wanting to cutomize your phone to look like what you want it to. And I certainly dont think taking characteristics from other apps or phones that interest you is a downgrade. However I dont know of any way to make quite the look your trying to achieve.
Ofcourse customizations might not matter to some but then if they dont why would they be here? After all this is a forum totally built around customizing your phone isn't it? Twas a bit rude to call it a downgrade and tell you to go packing and perhaps that started a downward spiral in this thread. Still the black dialer app was an attempt.
Alright, thread moved and cleaned:
1.- The subject of the thread it's customization I don't know why some of you are discussing about which phone is better
2.- Swearing it's forbidden by the rules
3.- If some user don't have nothing helpful to add then don't answer, if you think that something it's wrong just report it
4.- Be respectful
5.- Here is a link to the rules, all of you read it definitely it's necessary: http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?a=81
i come to respect this thread. the OP posted a good question. but some trolls here wrecked this thread up by posting stupid remarks. then when the OP defends himself, the mod further messed up the thread by cleaning up the essential posts. all you trolls need to stop trolling this nonsense.
i ask that the mod monitor this thread and be fair.
I know it just updated 8/5, it takes 3 days to do. Test this one in the mean time. The update is nothing big.
You most read post 2
This is a work in progress
No *****ing
Because this one includes Google maps, it can't be signed for now. That means it can't be installed normally in data/app. It most be in system app.
You most be rooted to have it fully work
The app is about 90%.
This app works on my note 2 running tw and cm, no clue if it works on other devices
Also on my Nexus 7
Know issues
1. Chat screen is grey, I'm working on it
2. A couple pop ups are white BG
3. Near by places list won't show on tablet till you tap the icon in the bottom left corner of the map
Install
1. Completely uninstall your current one
2. Download new zip
3. Flash in recovery.
Download flash to system
http://db.tt/kLMrhmWv
Or
Download the signed version
Install like normal, you won't have the map.
Use TBO to convert to a system app
Maps should work now
Signed version to be converted by you

Overall, very good. Especially the main part, the News Feed. Maps worked fine for me. The white border around pics was already mentioned. The events and friends menus on the left show a lot of white when clicked on. Perhaps that can be improved upon. Regardless, for me, the modded app stays installed. Great work.

Nope, it's gone, but if you previously downloaded it, you can still get it. That might be a good reason to download and delete any theme you MIGHT want to try in the future. At least you will still have access to it later if it gets removed.

Those all look very clean. The red one likely is the best. Good night mode type of theme. They should have a app that changes the theme based off the time of the day.
