Hello All,
I've searched through most of the Paranoid Android Rom thread, and I can't post any questions on that thread since I'm fairly new here so I'm hoping someone will help me out.
I recently downloaded the latest Paranoid Android rom with the fix, and I want to change my Icon size. I wen to the settings and changed the DPI, but when I apply my changes nothing happens. The icons don't change at all.
My second problem is, even with the default app icon DPI, the title block below the icons is not there. I made sure that the option to "hide icon labels" is not checked and I still don't have labels under tablet or phone mode.
Last problem, I might just be stupid, the the OP of that thread has his folders in a 4x4 square folder type look. I can't find anywhere to change the circle folders to that square folder.
Thank you all for the help!!
Hello Everybody!
I need help with theme development. So far I've searched the forum and did not find what I was looking for.
My theme I want is for the Samsung Note 2 Jedi XX MOD, but with a couple of differences.
I want to change the widget icons and notification icons with Zelda/ Link icons.
For example, Wifi icon changed to crossed swords, autosync icon changed to the triforce, bluetooth icon changed to navi, airplane mode icon changed to ocarina, etc.
Can someone help me out here? point me to the right direction on how to go about changing these icons please.
Thanks.
Did you check the general forum for android theming? There is a ton of great info in there.
G●Note~2 {Jedi X5}

I would follow this :
1. Change your home screen.
nova_jelly_bean
There are a lot of cool options for launchers, but Nova Launcher is probably your best bet for this purpose (Play Store Download Link). Simply using the default settings of Nova immediately makes your phone look a great deal like stock.
2. Customize your “look.”
holo_iconsYou’re also going to want to change your icons. Holo Icons is filled with stock icons, and looks great with Nova (Play Store Download Link).
You can even download stock wallpapers for an even more Play Edition experience. The Play Edition devices come with a new SunBeam live wallpaper, which you can download for your device for free (Play Store Download Link). If you’d rather have the other, non-live wallpapers that come with Jelly Bean, you can also get those in the Play Store (Play Store Download Link).
And if you want that minimalistic clock you see above, you can get that too, with Clock JB (Play Store Download Link).
3. Change your lock screen.Jelly_Bean_Search_Widgets_and_Halo_Launchr
The lock screen is the part of your device that you see the most often. Just like launchers, there are many options for alternate lock screens as well. For the purpose of making your device look like a stock device, Holo Locker is your best option (Play Store Download Link). It has many customization options, it’s stable, and it looks cool.
4. Install Google apps.
google_apps
Stock Android devices come with only Google created apps. That includes the stock keyboard, which Google released on the Play Store a few months ago. Also make sure you have Gmail, Maps, Chrome, Calendar, and any other Google apps you desire. You can find them all in the Play Store through this link.
dialer_cameraYou’ll probably notice that there are some stock apps that are on stock devices, but that Google hasn’t released to the Play Store. You’re not going to be able to find all of them, but some, like the Camera app, complete with the awesome Photo Sphere feature (Download Link) and the Dialer (Download Link) have been leaked for you to enjoy.
5. Make all of these apps default, and disable bloatware.
While setting up these apps, some will prompt you to make it the default app, but others will not. Make sure you make all of them default, so they will open automatically whenever you want to use them. You can do that using a very useful app called Default App Manager (Download Link).
Disabling_Apps_429
If your device isn’t stock, it comes with a lot of your carrier and manufacturer’s bloatware. Without rooting, it’s hard to get rid of it all, but if you go into Settings / Apps, you can individually tap on the bloat apps and manually disable them. For more information, check out our guide on disabling bloatware. Also, if you’re using Nova Launcher, you can upgrade to the premium version and make them disappear from your app drawer and have them out of sight.

here is mine screen ###
I´m using Apex Launcher with the Jelly Bean 4.3 HD Theme. It replaces the most Huawei icons with the default android ones. Tried Nova first, but placing widgets at the home screen doesn´t work with it.

I have managed to reach their dowload site of that second theme:
http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=3818376665&uk=3406717033
Use google chrome browser and translate and click normal download.
This is theme section of forum. Many themes there:
http://cn.club.vmall.com/forum.php?mod=forumdisplay&fid=44
How to download:
1) go to a china theme thread and the end of the first post you probably see a locked link. It gets unlocked only when you reply to that thread.
2) On clicking the locked link, you probably end up in signup/login. I already had account on english forum, i just used that and password in the two sections. But im not sure if that actually created new account or logged in same account. The login id is done using email id. So email id and password.
3) after typing email id and password, it led me to a page with a single section to type. I was stuck here. But got around it. It basically asked to type a nickname. So type forum nick name.
4) now that you successfully logged in, reply to the topic to get theme unlocked
I have installed it. Freakin awesome. Customizes the whole thing. Cant sleep today.
I tried these three themes:
http://cn.club.vmall.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=193267&extra=page=1
http://cn.club.vmall.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=194645&extra=page=1
http://cn.club.vmall.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=192683&extra=page=1
Works fine. No issues noticed yet. In two of those themes, you wont get the clock as shown in screenshot. Its maybe a separate widget.
Also one of the theme, the screen lock is different from screenshot. There is no lock icon anywhere as supposed to be according to screenshot. But just swiping over screen unlocks it in a different way which looks cool by itself.
Note that the themes section does not come under a "p6" section. So themes could be for other EMUI versions and other models. I dont know if problems might happen if other used.
Tried this holo theme:http://cn.club.vmall.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=78602&mobile=yes
Very beautiful too. But again, although on the details it mentions that widget has been customized, yet i dont see where that is. I dont get the clock widget as shown in screen shot.
thanks so much

Can you share this themes, here pls.
Thanks in advance.
Remember a majority if not all the themes located on vmall's website automatically append the .txt extension. Just rename the extension to .hwt and copy to your themes dir located on internal or external sd card. The themes app should automatically scan those directories and import on opening.

New Miui style Huawei P6 Theme
Enviado desde mi HUAWEI P6-U06
I tried this flyme 3.0 theme:
http://cn.club.vmall.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=196888&extra=page=4&page=1
Its a neat and sweet theme but a little incomplete. The folders open as opaque window which is unique, but the font within that is in a black color that is not visible. It should be made white, and also the homescreen should be dimmed out a little more when opening folders, so that the opaque folder does not cause stuff on homescreen to show up in folder. The dialpad could have been made with a flatter keypad and a color that matches theme overall, but that isn't really a problem. Also a couple of icons have not been updated and may look out of place.
If someone knows how to edit this theme and fix those issues, it would be great.

Hi,
Like many of us i have move to nova launcher with a set of custom icon.
So i was looking for a trick to get the same icon on the edge panel to match with the homescreen.
Sabeersas member have done an app WizIconizer which let you replace your icon easily of touchwiz launcher and side effect the icon on the edge panel of our note.
Here the link of the original thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2766248

You mean this?
Yes
Works for me. I like it.
Galaxy icon themer also works. On play store by xperiacle. You need to reboot though for the change to take place in the edge. Main homescreen happens immediately.
Unicon works just fine... just reboot and it will apply to the system.
Edit: Now that 5.0.1 is out and we dont have xposed, I gave this app a try amd it is confirmed working on Lollipop!! XD
Thank you OP!!

Thank you
You can use galaxy icons themer. Amazing app of xperiacle
Thanks, none of the other apps had worked for me. I have Lollipop BTW.
I'm on a Hyperdrive ROM 4.4.4 and all my icons for the edge screen will not change. Any ideas?
icon pack used in pic ??
was hoping you can share with me what icon pack was used in the screen capture of the pic you posted for the example in initial post. i really like the clean look without the square borders that all other icon packs seem to have. iv searched high & low for a similar pack but with no luck. if you could share this exact icon pack name i would greatly appreciate it, thanks in advance,
