Almost a year on and I upgraded to 4g with SD card. Awesome phone still.
Just added themer and these were templates I downloaded via the app. Pretty cool though. Top work to the creators.

Nova launcher and Flatro icons. I haven't figured out how to make the navigation bar transparent yet. The status bar is made transparent and KitKat icons used in place of the stock ones using gravitybox.

Scrap that, I've sorted the navigation bar transparency, there's a small glitch in gravitybox, the navigation bar won't go transparent until you have pulled down the notification bar once.

How have you been able to change dpi settings? Is root necessary ?

Yes you do need root. Easiest way of doing it is by using an app like Texdroider DPI, available through the Play Store.
@terminal 7 good idea, changing the dpi.
root .. yep

yes root is required, various apps then deal with full system dpi change ie- ROM TOOLBOX which has an array of tools and is suited to newer roms, some older apps mess up jelly bean build.prop and cause boot loop so take care with the app you use.
for more control over individual app dpi just install the XPOSED FRAMEWORK and once installed go through the list of available modules that are downloadable from the main xposed app and look for APP SETTINGS module, you get a much better level of control similar to the way paranoid android roms let you change individual apps.
enjoy.

This is what I did currently.
I modded the lockscreen, so that music widget is transparent and (more important) those annoying white grips at the side, when you turn on the screen, are gone.
The Launcher is Nova 2.3beta with semi-transparent navbar, plus I modded the SystemUI.apk for semi-transparent status bar and swapped Back/Recent buttons.
Widgets are Anton's Kalender Widget, Gotasks (with heavily modded app and transparent widget) and Eye in sky weather.
Setup of Nova is no-Dock and 7x5 grid. Background is FiveWallpapers from market with 4 different pictures for 4 homescreens.

Thanks a lot. I am a kind of a newbie with all those things. Im a bit scared of rooting my moto G ans loose my warranty. I've already done this with my nexus 10, but idk, i need tout try... Haha
I was playing around with several icon sets, but they never support ALL icons which looks odd, so I keep the default icons.

currently we just can set the lockscreen wallpaper only. Even using the 3rd party launcher, we cannot set the wallpapers...
I really don't get this from amazon, this is 2014 , and we still cannot just customize the wallpaper ? ha ha
Use Vire Launcher.

Vire launcher does not let you change wallpapers... You can change the theme and the background will change with it, but you can't change to custom backgrounds...
Unless someone else found a way to do so?

Buzz launcher offers full custom background support, and makes it feel more like an android device. Also, if you haven't already, get the playstore... None of this requires a root. Instructions are here:

Still better than the terrible stock Fire Launcher though... And all the launchers that DO support widgets are stuck with an UGLY plain black background! At the moment, buzz launcher is the best option, until someone either develops a new launcher, or updates an existing one to make the "background" to not be dependent on the system background, but rather be an image placed ON TOP of said background. This would in effect bypass the whole "No background" problem.

Once I installed the Google Launcher and playstore I didn't feel held back anymore from the phone and switched back to the Amazon Launcher. It's my preferred launcher now. I recommend everyone give it a true shot. I just wish they gave us an option out of the box as I feel more people would have tried it out then.
Default wallpaper is cool, i think its not necesary to change it

Lightning launcher extreme allows for custom wallpapers (with advanced settings option turned on) AND widgets. Works beautifully!

Launcher Lab
You can only use built in widgets but launcher lab works great and has many themes like themer, have been using it for a month with no forced closes.
Buzz has been the most stable for me themer crashed a lot I'm stock unlocked also glove box dock is really nice on here

You can change your background now if you have updated to version 4.6.1 You can choose from some wallpapers or your own photo. If not, then try Buzz Launcher, which is the only launcher that i've found so far that has a customizable background. Hope this helps!
I am using nova launcher prime 4.0.1 I think and I have wallpapers/widgets working.
Google Now launch lets you change wallpapers and most widgets seem to work fine.
Hello everybody!
I just want to know how the LG G4 themes work? I havent bought the phone yet, but Im considering it. Do the themes apply to the for example messaging app as well as the home screen? Also, are there any material design/stock android themes yet? Should I rather buy the S6 if I want that?
use nova launcher or google now launcher
I always prefer / run Nova on all my Android devices.
As others have stated, if you really want to get the most out of your device as far as customizing how it looks/acts you will ALWAYS be best off with downloading a 3rd party launcher.
I would also suggest Nova (though I prefer Prime since again it gives that many more features and will allow me to setup a gesture shortcut for tap-to-sleep) or Next Launcher 3D (Just started using this one the other day but so far I really dig it)

The LG G4 themes are pretty weak. You can't grab a theme or an icon pack from the Play Store and apply it, you have to get the themes from LG Smartworld, which is LG's own private app store for LG devices.
There are a few themes there, but they're mostly half-as$ed. 20 to 30 icons only and a couple of wallpapers, they don't give you enough.
Like everyone said, you can download a launcher from the Play Store like Nova. This will allow you to customize close to anything and apply icon packs with thousands of customized icons.
I wouldn't go as far as buying the S6 for that reason, not even close. You can expect the theme manager there will still not give you what you can get from Nova or any other launcher from the Play Store.
The LG themes change the icons and the wallpapers. Some include LG keyboard themes as well.
If you want the authentic messaging look and feel then you can download the actual Google messaging app from the app store. The LG themes does include lollipop material design. Google now launcher is authentic lollipop launcher. There is nova launcher which is the most popular. The moonshine icon pack can be downloaded from the play store and applied with nova launcher. That's as authentic looking as you'll get.

Thanks bro I really appreciate your work.
Can you please edit the moto gallery app edited by Junior Passos,
His work is also good, everything is working normal we able to edit the pics but that have one bug. If we delete any pic/video via gallery app then the pic get disappear from the gallery app but the pic/video is still present in the memory card. we need to delete it via fileManager to delete it completely.
Moto Gallery app link https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-play/themes/app-moto-gallery-v540034-t3617488.
I think we need to provide write access to sd card for this app.
Thanks in advance
thanks man nice work.
Very good work. It is my launcher to go!
Hi, Thanks for the apk ! But My security app called "Lookout" flagged the apk for containing code that is related to ransomware.
So I immediately uninstalled it from my moto z play. Has Anyone else had this trouble ?

It's because I enabled debugging on the app. There's no ransomware in the apk.

I don't know what can be wrong with it, it has all the external storage permissions. I'll see if I can get a hold of the new Moto Gallery from Moto X Force's 7.0 Nougat update.

Do whatsapp (widgets on the home screen), phone (widget in the first row, displaying missed calls), message (widget int the first row) ... apps show unread message count natively? Or do we still need to install notifyer app, and use it's widgets.

You can have those in the rootless Pixel Launcher https://github.com/amirzaidi/Launcher3/releases wich is almost identical. The whole point of this Motorola Launcher is that you're not forced to have that on the main screen.

To have 5 row icons, go to display and decrease the font display from there. You will then have 5 row icons.
Hi folks, so I really really like the dynamic weather widget on the S22 Ultra and I was able to download the APK file for it on to my Pixel 6 Pro. The widget was available to use on my home screen but once it was set the app just froze.
Does anyone know of an app that works / looks the same as the dynamic weather widget OR knows of a modded APK file that would work on the P6Pro? Surely one of you amazing people will be able to crack it
