1. Go to the theme thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=707
2. Select a theme and download.
3. Most of the themes are CWM installable. So, reboot to CWM recovery mode.
4. Choose zip from SD card and install.
5. Reboot device and VOILA!
Might want to ensure compatibility with your rom first...but other than that....follow previously stated instructions
This is mostly for anyone who runs kifno's rocksteady ROM, along with his scripts. Essentially, I am not sure how to install both of them together properly. It seems the instructions kind of overlap? And I do not want to wipe anything at the improper time. So if someone could edit these instructions so I could follow them in sequence, I would be grateful. If it makes a difference, I will be flashing the uncapped kernel (768mhz).
P.S. - I've been running xda roms for about a year now, and just wanted to say thank you for all your hard work and contributions to the open-source community. To ALL developers
ROM INSTRUCTIONS
Instructions:
1. Backup EVERYTHING (SD Card, Titanium Backup, Nandroid)
2. Wipe EVERYTHING (Data/Factory Rest, Wipe Cache, Format Boot, System, Cache, and Data, Wipe Dalvik)
3. Download and Copy RockSteady & Gapps to your sdcard
Get Rock Steady Here
Get Gapps Here
4. Flash RockSteady and Gapps and Reboot
5. Skips gapps setup and reboot into recovery and wipe data, cache, and dalvik again
6. reboot into system
7. After setting up gapps, in the menu > sense settings > ui setting > check tink ab and make the scale factor 1 instead of 7
8. Long press home screen and create a custom widget with phone as the activity. Then click the phone icon and us es file explorer or gallery and use the transparent.png I provided for you on the root of your SD card. Okay the custom widget and the drag and drop it over the phone button. Do the same for right sense dock button (choose a custom activity of your choice)
9. Add the sense clock by using the fancy widget widget i provided for you.
10. Choose a new wallpaper if you wish by picking one of the sense wallpapers I provided for you on your sdcard's root directory.
11. Please see here about widgetlocker. Please purchase this app from the market to use as the sense lockscreen. I REALLY RECOMMEND IT. And you can easily disable the default lockscreen once you start using this app by going into the cyanogenmod settings > tablet settings > and checking disable lockscreen.

Oh sorry didn't see your reply but try the latest one now
Ok, this is starting to come out of control
Anyway, here is a port of Chancellorr's Simplistic theme.
Yeah, just look at the screenshots and you'll see what it is. Not much to say really
Install instructions
1) Download the zip and place it in the root of your SD card
2) Boot into recovery
3) Wipe cache and dalvik cache
4) Flash the zip
5) Reboot
I've not made any icons myself, all thanks to Chancellorr
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING UNFORTUNATE THAT MAY HAPPEN DURING OR AFTER FLASHING THIS. YOU FLASH ON YOUR OWN RISK. But just follow the instructions and you'll be fine
Looks like this
Firstly: You need to be using a Deodexed ROM like Retribution. (I think)
Install this: Boot animation enabler.
Then get the animation from the attachment and do this:
Just put the zip on your SD card and use CWM to update with the zip.
select the option ( install zip from sdcard ) and ( chose zip from sdcard )
Might take a while to load the first time I think because it is saving files to the dalvik cache?
(correct me if i'm wrong, it's just that if I clear my dalvik cache, I notice it takes ages to boot up the next time I restart the phone, so I figure it stored the cache for that there)
You can make your own for your phone by following these instructions.
Disclaimer: Not responsible if your phone explodes because of this.

Hi can u make an Oreo build Deodexed rom ?
I think it is an flashing Magisk/SuperSU and other mods
It's deodexed just as the title mentions.
Deodexed versions are easier to theme etc
