Hi all, Just wondering, I just updated the Razer Phone with the latest update, and in the update notes, it mentions a DARK THEME, but I am not able to find this. Anyone know where 1 can find it? I looked at NOVA Launcher Settings, and in the Phone SETTINGS....
Thanks in Advance

It refers to the icons, they are now darker. Sadly no dark theme, there is night mode for nova though.
you can change all of the Razer Green icons to the default using nova long press the app icon and go to info i then Edit you can do this with all but the Game-booster so its the only apk that needs a stock looking version IMO.

I've been working on a theme, mainly for myself but I will probably upload it if anyone is interested. My question is how can I change the pull down bar image and background for the notification, I have found that some themes do this, but I have searched everywhere with no explanation of how. I found an image that looks like a pull down bar but its a 9 patch image. (is there any progress on using the 9 patch tool in the SDK to change these?)
PS. The background in the attached shot is not part of theme, I think it will work with any dark background. Also not sure if I am going to bother to change any of the icons at this stage, maybe later on.
Please upload for ADP1.1
yo! the theme colors look cool, but the menu button at the bottom seems not the right fit..maybe its just be..
as for the question you actually asked..i have no idea..i am sorry
At the moment, all I have changed is the status bar background, the App Menu dragbar at the bottom, the google search widget and the clock. I will look into making different version once I have finished it (first version is going to be RC8)
What is it that varies between firmwares that requires different versions? Is it the contents of the Framework-Res.apk and Launcher different for RC8, RC30, ADP1 etc?
Great
looks great
Love the show Lost !!! Cant wait to see how this turns out..
The wallpaper (which I got from an app in the market) wasn't really part of the theme per se, its just the one I am using currently, though I think it looks good. RE: original question I kinda worked it after now, just editing the 9 patch images for the search bar and notification and it worked ok.
where is the notification bar image though?
Wow look nice. Here were did you got that bbc new app. I did a search for it in the android app store and nothing came up.
Hi guys, any idea how to change the background wallpaper in the menu screen? It has always been a black background after pressing the menu button. Quite ugly looking. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks
Yes i would like to know as well how it can be done. I had once a HTC Touch Diamond 2 and the winmo had an optionto change thw wallpaper in both home screen and start/menu programs.

Would've been cool to know how to do this...
i want to know the same
You mean when you press the apps icon and it takes you your installed apps? that background? or your dock background? Dock backgrounds easy so id guess the other may also be, backup your touchwiz30launcher.apk throw it on pc use winrar to check it out res/ drawable-hdpi folder. There should be a .png in there to change it i'll check tonight if time permits..
Did it worked?
I have Louncher Pro, do I need to change it to touchwiz louncher?
thanks

Hey Everyone!
I've been using the Huawei P8 Lite for quite sometime now, with one particular pet peeve...
THE FREAKING STATUS BAR DOESN'T CHANGE COLORS ON MATERIAL APPS LIKE IT SHOULD!!
Hopefully when marshmallow and the next EMUI version are released for our Huawei phones, they will correct this.
But for Now, here's a working solution that will take less than 5 minutes
THE SOLUTION
Take an Image that you want as your wallpaper and put it in an image editor like Photoshop or GIMP (heres the link to the site, it's a good free editor https://www.gimp.org/downloads/ ). There are plenty of online editors to do the job too
Next, using your preferred editor, change the opacity of the image (I found that generally about 40%-50% is a good amount)
Now export/save this image as a .png Image file
Put the image on your phone, set it, and Reboot (Must reboot to clear the after image effect)
(It can be a pretty quick process!! )
Now rock your phone in Style!!!
Trouble Shooting
If you find the status bar is still not transparent enough in Apps, repeat the process but decrease the opacity while editing. It will make the image more transparent.
ALTERNATIVE IF YOU DON'T HAVE A LIL TIME TO SPARE
Follow hjthjthjt's guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6/general/guide-how-to-lollipop-translucent-bars-t3232898
Though it doesn't work after rebooting, that's why I came up with this solution.
I wanna say thank you to hjthjthjt , their thread really helped. It actually inspired this alternative sollution. Thanks.
example images in the Attachments Bellow
Edited image, an unedited image, the wallpaper on my home screen
and Google Play Store to Show the Transparent/Translucent Bar.
If I helped you, Click the Thanks Button, I really appreciate it
Doesn't work for me. What theme are you using?
Edit: It works after a while and few repeats. Not sure why. Thanks though! It looks awesome!
Awesome!! I'm using the magazine ui theme, the launcher is nova launcher with the sunshine icon pack. I found it's important to restart the phone after applying the wallpaper. Gets it to work properly. I really hope they fix/change this in the future marshmallow updates. At least for now it works
It's transparent on my p8 lite.
Awesome!! @ItalianWolf are you using this method or another wallpaper/live wallpaper?

No method, i'm using the default emui theme (magazine if i remember), lockscreen and home background (i set different) are full hd images, loop screen on, home style standard.
There's another way to do this. You take your wallpaper, open it up on Photoshop or Gimp, apply a gradient on the top of the picture and make it transparent so it does not look ugly as hell. Then you apply it and reboot. That's what has been done for the EMIUI theme.
You can also use various live wallpapers.

Here U will not only have a transparent status bar also you will get a android 5.0 panel.
ps: i don't own this app and it's the first result on google play store.
Hi,
Is it possible to change the app menu of Pixel to night theme?
What do you mean by the Pixel's app menu? Can you post a screenshot?
Probably talking about the launcher drawer...
My guess is you're taking about the settings menu. I don't believe you can in stock. However, I'm unlocked running the pure nexus rom and I can theme just about any color I want with substratum.
Substratum works in legacy mode on stock. Need root, certain themes work perfectly eg: swift dark, swift black.. no need for theme ready apps either. Settings, app drawer etc. It's all themed.
Swift dark is basically the old night/dark mode that we used to have in the dev previews. Swift black, self explanatory.
I've been looking for a black theme, all these white menus hurt my eyes
There used to be a switch in settings to make everything including menus etc black but it seems to have been switched to the theme manager. Can't seem to find a theme with dark background and white text in menus, they mostly just change wallpaper.
Any advice?

Learn how to theme.
Unfortunately, it can't be done. When you create a theme for an Xperia phone, you create a dark theme and a light theme, but it is not up to the theme developer or the user which of those themes to use. Sony has explicitly decided which of their apps will use each theme, and there does not seem to be a user-facing option to change it.

Yeah I'm using nova, still a lot of white going on everywhere
IICR if you put it to the stock launcher then go to themes when long pressing the screen those themes should change the whole phones theme.

Upgrade your phone to Android Oreo 8.0
and use substraum themes, then apply black theme
Do you think we can get the android 7 nav keys? cause I am not a fan of oreo nav keys.

only at setting page, not in other such as dialer and phonebook
Is there a substratum theme that doesnt break my apps? I was using the mono/art theme for substratum but everytime an app like WhatsApp or messages got an update it would force close the app when I would try to launch it until I remove the theme or it gets an update. Is there a theme where this wont happen? I was also getting force closes with WiFi toggled on and off.
substraum very buggy on oreo
