I would like to download and install gearfaces themes. The file I find on my Galaxy S4 (4.3) is just the .wstheme file- not a zip file. I tried to rename to a zip file and was not allowed to change the extension. Wondering if someone knows the fix for this? Thanks!

Dont rename it.copy wstheme files to a location on your phone. Launch watchstyler on your phone, select Load Theme, select the directory where you put the files.

Many users wanted to flash their own CSC on custom ROM. Here is small guide how to get original CSC from base and add to custom ROM.
1.Download your desired ROM from SamMobile (OR use if you have any base already with you from same region)
2.Extract zip to get tar.md5 - again extract it to get cache.img.
3.Get Img Extractor from here Extract exe file on a new folder. copy extracted Cache.img in this folder as well.
4.Drag and drop cache.img you have extracted from base on ImgExtractor.exe
5.You will see newly created folder cache.img_ along with exe
6.Open cache.img_ - recovery - sec_csc folder, you will see system folder. - Drag and drop that system folder on you desktop.
7.Now download csc_changer_new.zip template from here and drag and drop system folder on root of zip. (so after this when you open zip you should see three folders data, META-INF and system)
8.Flash that zip immediately after flashing ROM.
Update : Updated script so it will auto backup all ROM CSC features and auto restore after changing CSC
Repo
Here is sample ready made pack. (you can submit if you make for your region)
1.India CSC for N910G - Download and flash zip immediately after flashing ROM.
2.DBT CSC - Download and flash zip immediately after flashing ROM

Your download link drops csc_N910G_India.zip.exe which is malware, WTF?

Using 7zip on Windows I get a cache.img.ext4 file which does not create the expected files when dropped onto ImgExtractor.exe.
May I get a clue?

Don't drop cache.img direct from zip. First drag to desktop then drop on exe

Thank you for your reply...
I put both files on my desktop and then dropped the file onto the .exe.
It seemed to do something but still no folder.
Log saying folder created. Look again folder somewhere on desktop. Better you make new folder and put exe inside it then drop cache.img so it's can easily located inside that new folder

Okey dokey, I think I'll settle this once and for all.
@catseyenu was using the wrong download link. As you can see from going to the download page there are 2 download buttons, the first which says "Download" is a fake download link and will redirect you to another site and try to get you to download some sort of software in .exe form.
The correct link is the one that says "Download Now" which I have verified this and was able to download it without any problems.
With Dev-Host it is a case of knowing which download link to press. On a side note, our (XDA's) partnership with Dev-Host has ended due to them not wanting to control the ads that they have and often redirecting users to other sites and trying to get them to download possibly malicious software. Due to this I would encourage the OP to use other file hosts such as AndroidFileHost for example.
Thank you Jonny for clarifying the status of the malicious host.

Actually for small Download I also prefer mega which is now a days offers highest Download speed and most users prefer it. Initially I have posted link was mega. But I need to update it and particularly this file targeted for Indian users, and many provider in India have blocked mega so this time I made dev host upload.
For rom I prefer dev /pCloud and Media fire bcoz all three gives Web upload (remote uoload) option so I can provide three mirrors by uploading at one place.
Again thank you very much for being with us always.

German CSC for N910F
Hey Guys,
if anybody is looking for the german csc you can download it from here: http://workupload.com/file/Km2FjCof
I made it according to dr. ketans explanation. Just one thing when I go into phone info / CSC-Code it states:
Original CSC.-Code: INU
Firmware CSC-Code: DBT
Active CSC Code: INU/ DBT
Available CSC.-Codes: BTU, CPW, DBT, ITV, KOR, XEF, XEO
CSC Country: Germany/DE
Do I need to use the csc changer apk and therefore wipe everything? Or am I good even though active CSC is Indian and German??
I am on Nameless Rom 4.2 and the reason for me doing this was because of the message I receive on every boot up stating: Texting just got better.... Where you need to give your mobile number (you can also just click 2 times on no but thats not an option for me) But even after I flashed my CSC zip it still shows up.
@dr. Ketan do you have a solution or did i do something wrong? I did it step by step. Hope to receive an answer.
Probably that is issue of rom and not csc.
Indian csc causing send a text message to Indian number that should be fixed (on latest nameless I think prefixed) by changing csc
Sent from my SM-N920I using xda premium
I solved with the csc changer app, i switched to dbt and had to wipe everything. Restored my apps and date with titanium backup, now i am running with german csc on nameless rom 4.2
And the texting got better pop up disappeared
CSC Note 5
I tried this on my new note 5. I flashed a TMOBILE rom and that totally screws with csc and features. This does work in the sense that it brings back my multi csc for my Canadian note. However where I get the problems is similar to the gentleman above. It only partially applies the csc that I need. When I flash the zip. It attributes a generic out of the US csc XAC. When i try something like Phone info Samsung to change it to RWC. It only changes where its says active csc and it still shows XAC as also active. ANd firmware csc and original csc still show as XAC. Why when i flash the stock rom does it default to RWC eventhough the csc files are the same, but with a custom rom XAC?
