Hey i was wondering im new can i change the theme without rooting the phone. Such as battery color and toolbar and menu colors and icon images? i heard of PANDAHOME? Does this program do what i listed for changes? if not what app or way will it work
I am not aware of any apps available that support more theme-ing than the launcher. All of the things that you would like to change are only possible through rooting your phone.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
I can't seem to apply any themes at al to my N1. I'm currently running Enoms 2.12.2. Using metamorph it occasionally thinks the theme has been applied, but once rebooted the best I get is a wallpaper change back to stock (not a black or glass status bar). I have tried using ninjamorph to change one icon, and this simply causes a bootloop once applied.
Any ideas?
Since it might help some people in the future in case they encounter the same behavior and come here looking for answer, I'll post the answer from another thread:
The OP checked his settings and found that oveclocking was the cause of the theme not being applied. He dropped the clock speeds and a simple theme worked.
A couple of more complicated themes failed, though - so the question is still relevant.
Hi all
Just got the mod runing and everything seems to be working fine.
Currently im running with the standard theme Androidian.
My beams that are running cross the screen are very pixilatede so i went to the theme chooser to find something else. There i see a screenshot of the theme I have currently running and mine looks NOTHING like it.
can i fix this somehow?
Sincerely
Casper
Sorry if this has been asked but I Googled and couldn't find much (I suspect because of the keywords- it wants to show me how to change the background or how it's available in white)... but, after the 5.0 update, there is one "annoyance" setting that I'm hoping can be reverted. Everything is now white instead of black (menus, app drawer, etc.). Can this be reverted to the darker theme easily?
As far as I know there is no way to revert to the "black theme".
Oddly, G's news app has a dark theme built in, but thats the only one I can find
Installed OTA yesterday. Anyone else not able to change dialer keypad from the mental hospital white? I would prefer a dark dialer keypad, which was available in Sense 6. The only option under personalize is default (white). Initially the same was true with the keyboard, but after changing themes in the new theme settings, I got other options for the keyboard that were part of those themes. Still only default for dialer keypad, and no theme change would change it either, so regardless of theme chosen I still only get white.
I looked around the forums and saw that some had the same problem with sense 7 ROMs running on M8 and M9. There was a workaround by uninstalling the dialer app, and then updating it or simply reverting back to sense 6 dialer, but I've no option to do that under the app (just force stop, no uninstall).
Kind of at a dead end in figuring it out. Don't care for the bloat of 3rd party dialer/phone/messaging apps, but might have to try one. I'm not into rooting or mods on my main communication device, and so this phone has never been anything but stock (except for apps available in the store, naturally). I did have Apex launcher as my app launcher at the time of OTA, but that should not have thrown a wrench into the update (at least I don't think it should have). My next step is to factory reset to see if that resolves it...which I'm not eager to do.
Any thoughts?
Use the themes app and download a new keyboard theme.
Not all themes come with keyboard recolouring...

Thanks for the reply. I tried that. None of the themes had any affect on the dialer keypad -- still just white --, even the ones that showed in the preview to do so. The keyboard was changeable with via applying themes.
Hmmmm, if it is a Sense 7 based Sense 6 ROM , it won't work, AFAIK the only official Sense 7 ROM is Stock Rooted, soon will also have Bad Boyz 4.0.
Try the stock rooted, then report back please!
I'm not running a ROM, I'm newly OTA updated with Marshmallow, so I'm stoock Sense 7. I guess I'm wondering if what I described (only white phone dialer keypad) is normal behavior for Sense 7. Like I said, I can't change the color of the phone dialer keypad from white, either in settings or themes. If this is correct behavior for stock sense 7, that's OK, and I'll explore other options by way of a phone app.
Again, thanks.
It doesn't seem like normal behavior, I'm on Stock rooted MM...that is literally just changing the theme for me.

Got it to work. Don't know what the problem is. Some themes that show a change to the dialer in the preview do change it when applied, some do not. Now to find a way to edit the theme and retain the change to the dialer.
Thanks for the help.
Same problem same solution. I've only got one theme that was actually able to change the dialer colour to black "darkside" but I hate everything else about it. Could you suggest any other
