Messages icon not changing... - LG Q7 Themes, Apps, and Mods

Hi,
Can't find answer via Google so I'll ask here:
No matter what icon pack I download from LG Smartworld, all icons change as they should - except for the Messages icon!
Is there some way to change it like it should be, depending on pack, but without PC, bcs I don't have it?

I remember back in the day (KitKat up to Marshmallow) I had a similar issue. Used to use Unicon (Xposed) to change icons but the Messaging icon wouldn't change. Calendar too I think. In that case I found out that Messages (or whatever it's called) was actually a widget, iconified. Reason why icons wouldn't apply to it. Tools like G3/G4 TweaksBox allowed a way to fix that.
Have no idea if LG still does that or not. My Q7+ is still in the box so I can't check myself.

REQUEST - Default MIUI Theme

Hello,
I have been looking for 2 days online for the FULL official Default White MIUI 2.3 theme. I have found multiple files, often 1.6mb, which mainly themed the launcher, but nothing else, not the dialer, not the sms, not the menu, not the status bar, etc...
Could you help? Could you link me to a working full zip/mtz file of the theme?
Thanks!
+1 on that. Couldn't find the complete default white (dialer, notifications etc) theme ... unless I downgrade the ROM.
The only default theme i have ever seen is the ones around 1.6Mb, if you go into any rom and pull the default theme it is that size. The default theme doesn't actually theme everything it leaves it "stock" white by not themeing it. So it only shows the actual parts from the roms UI images. If you want all the stock parts such as status bar and everything else you would have pull apart all the pieces of the rom.

[Q] How to change LG stock lockscreen wallpaper without any apps?

At First, Please try to understand my bad english Thx.
Hello I'm using KU5900 in South Korea that is same model your P970
I want to change my lockscreen background differently homescreen wallpaper but i can't
I don't want to use any apps like wigetlocker, because my optimus black's ram is very small and this kind apps are very slow
And my question is..
Is there any ways to change stock lockscreen wallpaper(background)?
Thank you.
if you are rooted, go to uot kitchen and design your lockscreen then flash via cwm
for wallpaper either longpress on screen and go to wallpapers
or go to gallery and set one
I think he means to change only the lockscreen's wallpaper... I'm no dev nor cook so as far as I know that is impossible... well maybe not that impossible, I remember having 2 different wallpapers...I think it was with cm7 I don't remember :/
yes in cm7 or miui he can mod these
but if you are not rooted, i dont see any solution
I have root
I also have root
in P990(optimus 2x)
RES_cappuccino.apk\res\drawable-hdpi\bg_background.png

Impossible without root.

For those dont have notification toggle,create your own with metro style

recently I got a htc one s, it is a really nice phone but there is no notification toggle. I already feel tired about learning how to root and flash custom rom, so I just download a app call "notification toggle" from market, its free. Here is the link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.notificationToggle&hl=en
This is a great app, however, I just dont like the icons they provide. So I went to this site to download some metro style icon:
http://mywindows8themes.com/windows-8-downloads/windows-8-metro-ui-icon-set-free-download/
After that, you just find out the icon you need and set them in icons&colors inside the notification toggle app. I dont know if anyone did this before but I just wanna share mine~
Here is some screenshot: 1st one is when active, 2nd one is when disable

Black Theme Android/Apps

Hello,
I tried to find Dark/Black themes for Z3 Compact which could theme settings, calendar, contacts and a lot of other apps but without success.
I also tried some Xposed module for theming but all of them were not working
I would like something really close to the one made by @Rajeev (dark and blue) like here
Or something like eXistenZ from @niaboc79 like here
Sadly his rom is not working on our Z3 Compact
I am currently using Slimm 3.1 Rom from @Wajk
If someone could help me, i will be really greatful :laugh:
I also tried Substratum theme engine, and Layers manager but the apps doesn't start then FC ?

You should flash something about the Layers you can't directly use it AFAIK, also I don't know any other way than Layers on MM to edit the apps as you requested. Even with Layers, it is very risky, it might screw your system up, make sure to have a back-up! When it comes to eXistenZ, it is a highly customized ROM so don't compare it with stock
Substratum works for MM. I've mixed a few of the best free, cheap and quality themes I've tested. Theming quality varies and compatibility can be inconsistent. Takes some time to test. But I've done that so can share. I'll list in order of quality preference. That way you choose the priority theme's overlays when there are duplicates.
Material Glass is a free unique dark theme. Has transparency to wallpaper throughout and for pop ups. Can use all of them. Don't like it's XDA labs though. Also has two bugs if using it's Android System, volume slider hides foreground app and keyboard switcher reboots device.
Swift Black is a cheap quality pack still in active development and updating to substratum. Pretty much all of it's overlays are great except Chrome's window heading clashes. It's Systemui and Android System are standouts priority above Material Glass the latter only because of prior mentioned bugs.
InversionUI is a good free pack. Not as good as Swift Black but if preferring free can be a close replacement. For example it's play store ratings colour clashes white. Google calendar, catlog and news & weather are unique to it. Calendar status bar icons clash black, but using white icons and clock changing in gravitybox is a workaround.
Dark Material free from play store for it's unique facebook and instagram. Substratum itself only seems to black with this one.
These have YouTube which is just it's setting menu aparrently and eBay just it's notification. I think Android System overlays clash black text in Sony's messaging, I just swapped to using Google's Messenger instead.
They're actually the best combo. I tried some others but had no results or crashes. Haven't tested all as these fill everything already. Can't complain with the results!
edit: for posterity's sake using xposed mod Qs X tiles per row can help theme notifications colours. Also xposed mod LPThemer works on MM: under it's Status bar tab, enabling notification text colour can change notification button text colours.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge! That is really helpful. I'd like to ask for more info, e.g. you meant those themes↓?
• Swift Black (Play Store says Z3C is not compatible )
• InversionUI
• Dark Material (Play Store says Z3C is not compatible )
Have you tried AospUI Black od AospUI Dark?

This information is a little old so some things don't function anymore. Development for Substratum has moved onto OMS and older legacy support is discontinued. Some app updates have broken overlays too. I'm using two Z3C's, one on LineageOMS 14.1 which uses a new different mixed combination of packs including the old legacy Material Glass. The old MM stock I've just stopped using an overlay when it breaks.
Yes that's Swift Black, they stopped updating legacy awhile ago. Maybe if you can purchase I can provide the original last updated v8.7 APK to use. Yes, that's InversionUI, but I don't use any of it anymore. Dark Material has the package name com.chummy.darkmaterial_layers, I don't use it anymore. I haven't tried that, I just use my old stock MM as a backup so not changing things there unless needed. I just keep my LineageOMS 14.1 updated currently.
If might help so this is how my old remaining MM is set up:
Material Glass v3.2 old 3.2 for how the theme accent is preferred white still before it was changed to grey
- Android System (Use GravityBox to set media tweaks, volume panel timeout to 1 second to help with the overlay bug. Can use Tasker with Secure settings plugin to create a Keyboard switcher to get around the crashing default selector)
Material Glass v3.4 beta One of the last betas from the github
- Tags, Trusted Face, Phone Call Management, Google Play Store, GravityBox, eBay, Translate, Google, GBoard, Package Installer, Kernel Adiutor, Instagram (old version)
Material Glass v3.4 I think these were just apps I installed later so I used the latest and last release
- Messages, Android System WebView
Swift Black
Calendar, Google Text-to-speech, Hangouts, Keep, MX Player, Media Storage, Messenger Lite, News & Weather, Phone Services, Skype, VLC, Viber
I kept a note of when an overlay stopped working in case I needed to reinstall after a clean ROM. I had DocumentsUI and Gmail removed from Material Glass. I had Docs, Drive, Google Play Store, Phone Call Management, Translate and eBay removed from Swift Black. Of course I haven't tested everything and theres apps I don't have too, but that's what works for me and can be used as a guide.

Don't know if you're still looking, but I made one for eXistenZ MM - https://mega.nz/#!NptDRSgC!QOJHyx08wCMwWfnJpRYKRFgFQd9sRslSw8snfCWa5hg
Make a backup, flash in recovery.
Also, here's dark contacts, install as normal apk.

Sorry, I haven't had Z3c for over 5 years... I don't think those files exist anymore. You can use Apktool right on the phone to mod your system apps. That's mainly how I did everything.
One of my favorite phones, though. If Sony did more updates, I might still have it.

I guess the system resources has to be themed specially for EMUI.
I use the swift black theme as well, but also the theme "Alpha" theme for LG V30, which themes the system/notifications separately.
Alternatively, you can try to change the built-in dark theme for EMUI (Settings > Battery > Darken interface colors).
Thank you for the answer
I'll give a try the alpha theme
AND yes i have the dark interface in the settings
Unfortunately, several important applications don't work correctly when themed with Swift Black. Google, Chrome, Gmail, Maps and Agenda are a few. I contacted the developer, but there's not much that can be done because the don't have the P20 Pro for testing. A shame, and one of the things I miss from y Pixel 2.

They do work, but not correctly. In these applications, when you select text to copy to the clipboard, for instance, the pop-up menu text is unreadable. For me, this severely affects usability, and I gave up using Swift Black altogether.
What themes are compatible with emui because so far I haven't found any. Thanks!
Has anyone tried Swift Installer - Themes & color engine on the P20 Pro? I currently use it on my Note 8 but I'm getting the P20 Pro tomorrow and would be great to have it working.
