Hello,
Finally got my phone s-offed!
Decided to flash a GE rom. I do miss the CM theme engine, however I prefer the GE roms with it's better quality audio and other benefits.
Can anyone offer some ideas as to the best theme engine that plays nicely with a GE rom?
I see xposed works well, there are a couple of theme modules, xtheme and hktheme. Anyone suggest the better or best of the two for a wide theming option?
Thanks.

Hey there,
This has probably been answered before. so a simple redirect would be ok.
I love the stock look of the N7000 (menu buttons and locker) but all of the 4,3 roms have the Nexus menu buttons and app locker suck. I find those horrible to use.
First question... what would it be called (kinda nooby when it comes to launchers and such).... Are they called AOSP or AOKP or something.. or is it completely different.
Are there any roms which look like the stock rom.. but with enhanced features with the new 4.3 features?
Thanks in advance.
Ricky
aosp, aokp, cm, miui are just rom types.
By saying menu buttons you mean the whole look of an interface. You mean You want this stock 4.1.2 samsung blue stuff?
Because if this is what You want you may want to download samsung theme for cm from the google play.

I'm using PA myself and it allows for nice customization when it comes to looks. Have you tried that? There are also a few fun launchers that might solve your cosmetic issue. Is it mostly the new DPI settings you're having trouble with? Or just the general art style of Android?

I haven't tried PA yet. Next on the list.
I am looking for a stock icons/colour scheme, the apps logo not to look like the nexus variation of droid. Just me being an oldschool stock visuals.

I'm currently running Lungo ROM (android 4.0.4) because it's light.
If You are searching for more functions use PA, or the best "Jellybam".
That's the best ROM ever, but it uses a LOOOOT of memory.
Has anyone figured out how to get the stock android (aka not touchwiz) dialer and camera?
For your camera to have the ''original android'' look, I suggest you use an app.
You can use Nexus Camera (free) Some time ago, I used Camera JB+, and I really liked it (paid)
(I would love to give you the links from the PlayStore, but since I am a new user I can't post links yet
Regarding the dialer.. on 4.1.2 this was possible using the JKay mod, I'm not sure if you are familiar with it? It is a theme modification. At this very moment, there is no JKay available for 4.3, but people are working on it.
I hope this can help you with your questions.
So I love the stock Android roms without Sense but I really can't seem to get great audio like I do out of a Sense ROM with Beats. So what have you found for a sound mod that is just as great as the Beats audio?
Also any camera recommendations? I'm not so fond of the stock Google camrea.

You can try sound explosion final by doc3000, it works for cm11

The Sense camera is simply the best. But on CM11, with altered DSP settings, I get better sound than what I get on Sense. Try all the presets and see which you find to be the best.

On Google Play Edition (GPE) ROMs, I use Project ERA (formerly PureXAudio). The current version, 13.2, sounds really good through headphone and also over bluetooth to my Bose BT-Speaker.
You don't mention if by "without Sense" you are meaning GPE or AOSP (CM) based. They are two different things, AOSP-specific audio mods generally won't work on GPE and GPE audio mods won't work on AOSP. Project ERA works on Sense and GPE, but not on AOSP.
As for a camera app, I use Camera FV-5. It offers so many DSLR-like controls, including bracketing, exposure, metering, and more. Also great in full-auto mode for quick snaps.
Thanks for the responses!
@trjlive - Since I'm super CID, really any non-sense rom has to been quite the same. I'll definitely check out project ERA. Also that camera looks awesome! I'll try that out to!! I'm a photo junkie so I want a great functioning camera.
This is probably a silly question, but... I feel the need to ask it anyway. After recently switching back to a gb (for battery life reasons) rom XquiziT_SGH-T679_v6.1 to be exact, the only thing I noticed is the lacking "theme chooser" ability. What I wanted to know was is it possible to theme a rom that doesn't have theme chooser already built in? Or is there a way to apply it to a rom without it?
I've tried pretty much all the gb roms available and they all had some sort of issue that made my phone try and implode. This xquizit one seems quite stable and performs as I want it to, just... missing a little personalization. Basically what I want to do is change the ui "blue" to a purple. something like cm7 purple punch theme.
Thanks for any info/advice!
Theme chooser is in AOSP based roms only. Examples, cm, pa, PAC, aokp, etc. The only gb rom we have with that feature is cm7.
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda app-developers app
Some really cool themes using Layers. Are there any stable (as a daily) M7 roms using this feature?
Never even thoughts of another theming option other than cm theme engine, but there you go.
Thanks.
