I am running Perception 10.4, so how do I go about picking a theme? I know certain themes are certain phones so what do I look for when choosing a theme?
just make sure it is for certain build rom, for example, JPY, JPX, JS3.
you can go the themes thread to find a proper one; also you may ask the question in the corresponding rom dev thread.

Hey, I have been thinking about upgrading my ROM from a 1.6 to a 2.1 ROM.
Is it at all possible to apply themes on a 2.1 ROM? This may be a stupid question, but I'm not all that smart when it comes to Android ROM's. All I know is how to flash it.
Sure it's possible, but you will have to find themes that are compatible with that ROM. Search around and see what you find.
Good luck!
What makes a theme work with one ROM and not another? Is it the framework-res.apk?
Just wondering because some people don't make themes for certain ROMs and I was wondering if there was a specific file/s that I can swap out to make it work on the 'unsupported' ROM.
Noob question here, or major brain fart...
I just installed a kitchen rom. and all things work pretty good. I want to install a theme on my SGS.
But i'm a bit confused as to what all the versions that themes are compatible on mean.
The base rom version i got was the ZSJPJ one. (I also have ZSJPK but i screwed up some apps so i went back to JPJ) i can always cook up another JPK one.
When i browse themes, i can't seem to find one that says it's made for JPJ. They all are made for different versions, and i'm coming to think i'm just missing something... For example a theme will say made for JPU/X/Y. Will that work with mine? Should i be trying the JVx ones? or the JSx ones?
Any insight would be appreciated...
JPx and JSx work fine.
JVx are fror Gingerbread (not the same framework).
okok, thanks. I was making sure... cause i dled one of the JPx ones and it caused some FC's when i booted up. Maybe it was just that theme.
Make a Wipe Dalvik cache after installing your new theme.
Hey Everyone:
I just have a simple question. I am running a Telus Fascinate with Darky's 9.5 and would like to install a custom theme. Are themes phone specific (ie. Telus Fascinate or I9000 or Vibrant) or are they based on either Froyo, Gingerbread, etc??? Everything to do with my phone seems difficult and I am not sure if themes are this way also. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated..

Yeah themes vary from rom to rom, android version to android version. So to answer your question yes themes are phone/rom/android version specific. So I would advise you to seek out themes based on your rom of choice for your device. Happy flashing
NOTE:
Guys I know he should have posted this in QnA but his question is answered so dont break out the pitch forks and torches lol...
damn i was just beginning to sharpen mine
I have searched and looked everywhere for a good explanation but i haven't found it yet. Can some one be so kind to explain how you go about how to determine which Rom+Kernel+theme work together?
I have also read that people can choice between the captivate roms and the Samsung Galaxy S I9000 roms. What do you need to be able to do this?
Sorry about the question i am new and i hate ask the same question over and over, but i want to know.
Thanks.
Generally the devs package their roms with the kernels that work best together. For the theme, check the themes sections and in the title it will usually tell you what rom it is for.
To use an I9000 rom on the captivate you would need to flash a reoriented kernel so that all the buttons work properly.
the easiest option?
just flash whatever you want from the captivate dev section. all roms are already packaged with a kernel and modem, and most of them are already themed. if they arent, there is an entire theme and app section that contains themes, and they would be listed as being compatible with your specific rom.....
Trial and error. It is what makes XDA go round lol. We all must find what works best for each of us. There is no BEST combo. Just best for you and your device
