[Q] Why aosp builds dont have theme chooser?

I was just sitting and this question comes in my mind that why aosp dont hav theme chooser and cm builds hav
Even latest jelly bean dont seems to support themes
Whats the reason google dont provide this feature ??

cause theme chooser isnt a part of the original google android ;7
it is called also: tmobile theme engine ....
so its a part of tmobile and not from google
Send from my Galaxy Tab P1000 using Android 4.1 Alpha 0.1

But google shud provide this feature either they make their own theme engine or whatever
It will be a huge improvement

No. T-Mobile adds that to their devices. Google doesn't make it, AFAIK.

what is in the settings -> Themes ? Isn't it the same?

Why should they add theme support, it's just one more unneeded .apk in our internal memory.
I delete ThemeChooser.apk from CM7.2 right after flashing, as well as ~20 other apps i don't need, or have a replacement app for them. Makes the phone faster (no services running in RAM that i'm not using), and leaves free space for other apks

I guess it's only you, because I would LOVE to see theme chooser similar to the one from miui, so i could have stability of cm7, and theming features of miui. That would be awesome
*edit* sorry, didn't noticed it's about ice roms

We aren't all the same, the most important thing is we have choice . Except ICS roms, they don't have theme support yet (AOKP does i think).

Both, CM9 and AOKP, have theme chooser.

[Q] cyanogen mod thems

this might be a noob question
most of love the different thems that are present in cyanogen mod or aokp
since we do not have a FULLY BUG FREE cyanogen mod or aokp is there a way to run install the cm7 theams without the cyanogen mod
as we know we have a working cm 7 with bugs but the thems work without any problem in it. so is there any chance that the them chooser
integreated into other roms or just make them work without cm7

You cant do that
It is impossible
Because the themes integrate values and pngs in framework
Which will be incompatible on other devices

Theme engine is needed for proper working of themes which can run on supported framework-res.apk and systemui.apk.
For you, Simple answer is NO.

I don know HOW, but, it IS possible.
Not only by installing themechooser.apk and the themes (cyanbread.apk and androidian.apk), but modding a few system files.
CyanogenMod also has the capability ! !

Yes, but it would take a really long time, like six months of development. I guess no one would work on that.
I read somewhere that Theme Chooser is taken based on T-Mobile's rom source and CM team bring it for their source. Not sure if it is correct.

is possible create touchwiz ROM based on latest CM10?

oh boy... if it'll be based on cm10, it will still use a theme, plus some additional apps that you can actually find yourself, dude... and framework, you can do it yourself too if you have tutorial... anyway, i'm sure that someone will do it, if it's not done yet
