Why are themes taking so long? - Motorola Droid 3

I see the Bionic, similar to the Droid 3 but released almost two months after the Droid 3 already has *several* themes, including Ice Cream Sandwich themes. Why has this not happened for the Droid 3?

We're lazier.
jk, I made a theme. Just the statusbar/notification pulldown and 3g/data/battery icons.

*shrugs shoulders* beats me. I had a feeling this would happen. but im staying optimistic.

Because you aren't working on one!
Please don't complain unless you're willing to contribute.

Yeah, even though we usually have themes and all that by now, you do have to learn how to make your own theme. I made my own and had it for a month now. It has satisfied me until something i like better comes out. So yeah i suggest learning how to put together a theme for your droid.

I got a lot of ideas but I basically only have a day a week to do ****. And I don't wanna release the beginning of a theme (i.e. standard bull**** changes everyone does). I wanna have it 100% done before releasing.

I was working on one, but now that they have a working one I'll port it over with permission of the themer.
EDIT: I can confirm that the Bionic ICS theme for unleashed works on MonsterRom 1.1h without any additional modding.

Droid Eris themes

I'd like to Root my eris for THEMES and customization option .. but I see nothing in this section ... Is there anyway to get some of the other themes to work on the eris... Do the other Roms work on the Eris??
From what I understand (which is very little) themes already created would have to be ported over to the Eris.
I've tried a bit with metamorph, but for lack of knowledge, I haven't had much luck other than changing a few images.
I would love if someone would come up with a theme for the eris, but I guess it's a waiting game for that.

There are quite a few if you check around. Some based of the sprint build others based off the legend and Eris build granted you have to to some digging and testing but they're out there.

[Q] [Req] Continuum themes please? :)

All of these cool looking lockscreen options you guys have for the fascinate look just plain amazing i personally love the rotary one, that one looks hot :3
I was wondering if some kind, gentle soul could possibly port one of those themes or something like that for us Continuum users please?
Please and thank you!
Sbrissen and adrynalyne are your two sources.
If imnuts gets reboot options squared away ill update the continuum gingerbread theme with them...but its tough to work on themes/mode for devices you don't have
I would consider doing another theme for it but like 10 downloads of the one I did didn't exactly justify doing much else for the time being
lol thats the problem nits chicken and egg syndrome ... nobody flocks to download anything cuz there isnt much to flash
there is only 1 rom out, and its a bit buggy yet.. im actually going to post the bugs in adryns rom thread there today..
my humble opinon is the more there is to flash, the more downloads there will be
i also have reservations downloading for the wife's continuum since there doesnt seem to be a full stock odin to fix a borked install...i saw one that said close to full...

Makes sense I suppose....im happy to work on theme stuff for the continuum if people use it...but its matter of is it worth the time....
Make stuff for 10 people on the i400 or a few hundred on the i500...ill see how things go before deciding on making anything else
I will help out with themes for the continuum when the continuum clean gets finished up. I do not have the device to theme on either so I am in the same boat as nitsuj17 as far as testing is concerned.

Where are all the themes?

Is me or does it seem like there isn't that must interest in full scale flashible themes for this phone? There are definitely a few great themes available but other than that there does seem to be much going on in the thunderbolt world. I know the phone hasn't been out long but as time goes by it seems that there is less interest than there was at the beginning. I would love to start seeing some more ports , that would be great. Anyways just thought I would share my piece of mind. I do want to thank any and all of those who have put time and effort into making themes for this phone because without you guys this phone would be bland just like any other non themed phones

I was hoping to have one together by now but I'm catching hell from my wife about the time I'm spending on this phone. I've taken a break but plan to put together a theme with red icons, I was also starting work on a white theme with black Icons and text but my favorite white theme is being worked on already.
attempt to theme sense yourself and you will no longer wonder why there are no themes.

The incredible was out for how long... Over a year. The thunderbolt has been out for a few months. Honestly I think there is a lot of stuff for this phone for the short life span. I'm loving every minute of it.. give it time. There will a lot more with time

I'm not sure how the Inc was but HTC has split everything up and added a ton of stuff, which I don't think the INC had, that most people haven't learned yet

100% true....but it's not just Cyanogen it's all AOSP ROM's compared to Sense. There is so much interconnected stuff in Sense it's not funny.
On top of it all the htc.resources.apk has over 1700 images and that's only 1 app.

Are there any ASOP roms yet besides CM7? All the ones I've downloaded that say "ALL Sense removed" still have some sense and the htc.resources.apk

No, not yet, CM is the only one for the Thunderbolt as of now (that I know of). I was really just speaking in general about any HTC phone that has Sense and AOSP ROM's.

Strong this.
Agreed with the ridiculous resources folder, so many images used all over the place, cant even make sense of most of them, and just when you think you finally got them all, you have to hunt for 1 more (rinse repeat x100!) Every night for the last month I have gone to bed cursing the HTC devs.
Happy to say though I do have a new theme, hopefully it'll drop this weekend, just finishing up a few extras. And getting last input from the testers.
currently running on the infected rom but will quickly be ported to BAMF

ANy full theme for note 4 ?

Hi Fellas,
So happy to see many great devs and ROM in short amount of time for note 4.Thanks for that. I was wondering any full theme so far working on Note 4? I can only see one in Vision rom that OP says but its for note 3 . here is the one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2641842. ANy hints for full theme for note 4?

I am waiting on a full theme too, I am sure you remember the Bobcat Universal
theme in the Note 3 international development forum, that's what I call a full
and complete theme...
It looks like it's going to be quite a while before we see anything that even
resembles a full theme though, looks like creating a full theme for the Note 4
is going to be a lot more difficult and time consuming for the developers since
it's file system and structure are so different than our previous Samsung phones.
Please let me know if and when you find a full theme for the Note 4.
Have a great day!

COMPLETE THEME is a matter of perception. Some themers theme around certain stock apks and some dont. And theming every apk on your phone is pointless if that apk is going to ever be updated. Bobcat was hardly the only full theme for the note 3.....lol....but masters in the XML world like @forever loco , whom as of NOW has the ONLY close to "Full Theme" going being inverted apks is a huge giant leap and will hold a COMPLETE THEME BASE for most if not all Note 4 Themers in one way or another .... images have been replaced with a closed source image which has been broken by script, there is a huge process to get anything done. But the movement has been impressive so I personally applaud the amount of work accomplished thus far and will not dwell on was hasn't been... have a terrific day!!!!

the most complete theme out now is for the Dynamic kat rom; you can only use it with that rom though, and its not 100% themed..
Lol bobcat universal is the most common theme. It was so common I didn't even use it on my note 3
