Does Theme replace Launcher?

I just want to ask whether the available themes in the APP and THEME part is going to replace my Launcher pro or not. Any idea?
Thanks before

Themes modify the system files, they aren't independent.
If you get a theme for a rom, it will modify things all around the rom.
If you get a theme for a program (adw) it will modify things inside the program only.

for example, I'm interested in using the ZEN theme or the minimalist theme. Can I use my LauncherPro after I flash the theme?

[Q] AOSP icons?

I absolutely hate the Galaxy S Icons. is there ANY way to get the icons?
I'm using Perception Build 7.
EDIT: I should add, I know I can use ADW Launcher but I hate the update, and I hate what the creator of the AOSP theme did to the theme.. I just want the icons so I can use Launcher pro. I prefer the 3D app drawer.

Find a stock Nexus One ROM (like FRG83), pull the AOSP icons out of the system apks. Unzip the ROM package you're using and drop the AOSP icons in the system apks. Overwrite the system apks on your phone with the updated ones. Don't think there's really a quick way to do it.

yeah that sounds like a long process. But I'M WILLING TO DO IT, IF IT GETS RID OF THE GALAXY S ICONS!

My ROM has them out of the box if you're unwilling to change them all manually.

where does one find the AOSP icons in the system apks?

It's usually in drawable-hdpi.

What I done was downloaded the Morph- "Nero Blue AOSP" or "Vanilla Android" from the Vibrant themes/apps section... just use it for replacing app icons only, apply each one seperate, don't run it as a batch or it will install the included framework-res which will probley screw up some stuff..it worked great for me, replaced all icons to AOSP icons..

[THEMES] Cognition 4.1+: Gingerbread, Honeycomb

Make sure you backup before flashing in case something goes wrong. I am not responsible in any way if you brick your phone. You accept all risk that comes with flashing your phone.
With this theme I decided to go for a more genuine GB look. Which is why there are more files to flash. Also after some trial and error and help from people around the forum I finished my bootanimation.
Here are some GB themed apps. These are not required for the theme to work but do make the theme look good as a whole. *note the Dialer were pulled from Serendipity and can be found on the Serendipity site.
All of the files are Clockwork Mod flashable except the "Icons and Dock.zip"
*NOTE*
This theme will not change the look of your launcher. There are Gingerbread styled icons and dock attached if you want to theme your launcher. This is not a CWM file. Download it, unzip it and pick what you want.

Guide to Themeing
The attached guide is information I use to theme the Cognition ROMs. If there is additional information that you would like to know you can ask me and I'll try to answer.

Honeycomb Theme
Attached is the Honeycomb theme that received of 70% of the vote in the poll. This Honeycomb theme has been ported from PuffinNugz's theme he created.
*UPDATE
The battery icons in PuffinNugz's theme didn't port over properly. I tried everything I could think of to get them to work but could not. So what I have done is recolor the GB battery icons to match the blues in the rest of the HC theme.
*Note
If you want your lock screen to look like the one in the screenshot you have to use the puzzle lock in the settings.

Hmmm, I'm using Cog. 3.03 and it seems that this theme only changed certain properties of the theme. For example the notification bar is from this theme, but when in settings or any other menu, the font color and type is still from my previous theme.
Otherwise great work, thanks

I observed this as well during testing. I had flashed one of the other themes available to Cog3 and found that after applying my theme that certain things were still unchanged. This is due to the apps such as settings, dialer, browser and so forth were also themed by the developer. My theme only changes the framework and twframework files in the rom itself. Not in each individial app...for now.

Ahhhh, I see. So I'm guessing that flashing a fresh copy of Cog. 3.03 and applying your theme should work?
Thanks.

You are correct. I will start working on themeing the apps later on in my free time to get the overall GB look with a little of my own customization.

Sounds great man. Keep up the good work

Why is this different than your Gingerbread for Cognition 2?

Cog2 uses JI6/JJ4 framework.
Cog3 is based of the Rogers 2.2 and uses JL1 framework. Other users tried to use my other GB theme on Cog3 and it didn't work. So I made one that would. Supply and demand is what will drive my themes mostly.

Sorry, I think l was unclear. I meant to ask why the theme on Cog3 looks different than on Cog2 (like I notice some icons are different)

Which one of the Cog2 themes are you referring to? I know there are differences in the extended power menu and the status bar pull down. I'm not aware at anything else blatantly different. The reason behind the icons being different is that I didn't have new icons when I made for first two themes. If there is a request to update the old themes with the newer icons I will update them. Like I said before supply and demand.

Not installing...
Gets stuck at Installing update for Icons and Dock. I've tried 3 times, re-downloaded the .zip twice
The GinCog3.xip installed fine.
Cog 3.04

I suppose I should have specified in the OP (will fix). The icon and dock zip file is just that, a zip file. download it and unzip the file to see the icons and dock. You will have to manually apply each one.

Must be too complex for me. My phone looks NOTHING like yours

Thanks a lot I've been wanting to change the toggle icons in the notification tray on my perception theme for a while. I loved yours (but I changed the unpressed ones a tiny bit) and now it looks amazing, thanks for sharing!

Looks good...what font are you using in the screen shots?

[Request] Change icon pack for any theme in theme store?

There are a few decent themes in Samsungs store. However, the icon packs are horrendous. Nova launcher hides them in some places but not others, like the share menus.
Does anyone know how to flash the material icons over any theme?
Edit: Also, how about the wallpaper for settings and dialers?
Thanks for any help [emoji2]

You would need apktool to compile the icons into the actual theme. However, if you want to just remove the icons and have them stock, you can try this:
-Edit /data/overlays/jsonfiles/userjson/THEMENAME.json and remove the line for "appicon", then delete the corresponding folder from /data/app/THEMENAME.appicon-1. If you want to remove the icons from the lockscreen, you will need to do the same for the "lock" line/file.

Changing the Font

Does anyone know how I can change the font?
Tried downloading the iFont app, getting it to see my custom font (just Google's Product Sans) and create a font theme. The Themes Manager recognised it but then said it wasn't compatible. Asked it to use anyway as is and in a compatible version but the font still hasn't changed.
Tried downloading the EMUI enabler and that seemed to enable fonts but it doesn't recognise any apart from the iFont theme.
Thanks

However it appears you cannot simply drop the TTF file in the Themes folder and the app recognise it.
