So I'm the newest of newbs to XDA but I've been fond of LG devices ever since my first, the LG G3. Anywho, I was wanting some better options for home themes other than what's provided thru the smart world app. They're, for lack of a better word, LAME. Any assistance pointing me in the right direction to obtain some knarley themes would he appreciated. Note: I would like to use the theme launcher provided by LG that comes loaded on the device if possible. Opposed to downloading a different launcher. Thanks in advance.
Assumption
So I'll assume that a different launcher is needed.
There are plenty of theme threads right here?

No a different launcher is not used when using LG themes.
If you decompile the system themes you can learn how to create your own or you can just purchase some on your own.
The google play store has more offerings for themes then LGs app store.
decompile?

Hi there, maybe you can help? You seem to know a lot about this android subject, I could not find the theme I am most interested in modifying which is the one named: LG (see image).
Do you have any idea on how or where is LG storing this one?Also couldnt find the Platinum one within Priv app, any ideas?
Thanks!

Ah that's actually a good question, from my quick guess I believe that is the stock UI and not a theme, I believe it CAN be themed but I wouldn't recommend it without root or you'll have to constantly reboot your phone as you change things as I believe it's tied to system files while the actual themes are overlay packages.
Want the clear weather widget;

What I really want from the main LG theme (UI) is the clear weather widget, it be great to add that to the dark theme and some AOSP icons!
So I should look into the resources/overlay folders? Thanks again!

I hate to say it but I actually prefer the candy coating user experience of Sense to that of Stock Android. While playing with CM5 there were many things I liked and many I didn't. As a result I went back to Sense. Perhaps it just because it's what I have grown to know over the last couple days.
Anyway, the one thing in CM I really did like was the Photo Gallery, which included Picasa. Anyone know what I can do to get that Photo Gallery into Sense?
I think I might play with some other Sense ROMs today. Maybe someone has already done the work for me.
Thanks in advance for any help.
i may be able to make a zip for you. wow im busy tonight. i have to make a theme for the droid/milestone, a theme and two zips for sense roms.

I don't mind doing it myself. I just need a push in the right direction. I'm technically inclined but 3 days new to Android. What exactly am I looking for? Is the stock Photo Gallery a widget or app of sorts?
If you are willing to send me something later, that's cool too. I'm just trying to suck in as much info as possible. I don't want to cook or anything but I'd like to be able to have better control of what I can do to my existing ROM.
Thanks!

it is an app. if you want a zip i can make one. if not, the app is located in the system/app folder of cm5. all you have to do is put the app in the tools folder of the sdk and adb push gallery.apk /system/app in rcovery.

I'd like a widget or something for it so it's open on a home screen without needing to open the app. Additionally, is there any modding of the app file that I can do fix or remove the camera button. It doesn't seem to work in Sense.
Thanks again for all your help.

There is the possibility it could also be a widget. I may be mistaken, but I think unless you actually installed the gallery, in order to use the widget you'd have to delete some file. Again, I may be mistaken, I haven't tried this.
EDIT: I'm just thinking this because I remember in order to properly remove the Facebook/Twitter/etc widgets from stock, one had to remove some sort of database to force a widget database refresh, because it only does that on a legit (un)install

Hi guys just a little heads up for you if your interested.
If you are bored with your font on your galaxy s2 why not try and change it with this app. So many fonts that you can choose from and before you do change them it gives you a little preview of the one that you want to chose. Its easy to use and the best thing is its free from the market and AppBrain market to..
Here is the link to it and check it out for yourselfs.
http://www.appbrain.com/app/font-for-galaxy-sp/com.hongik.fontomizerSP
This is why i like android and my galaxy s2 cause it gives me so much variety and openess to do what i like with my phone..
Enjoy and if you want me to bring some more good apps to your knowledge that are usefull just leave a nice comment.

It looks like it's a "Live wallpaper" and by even removing the default supplied live wallpapers, this one is not effected - it sticks.
I wish someone would make is customizable.
Any DEVs out there that wanna take this on?
i wish we could unlock the screen by waving over and then pressing anywhere on the screen
that feature was available on the note 2, saved me from pressing the home button

I may add this as an option in my ROM. But you can change the wallpaper through apk tool.

So has anyone at all tried removing the quick glance lwp and do an apk file PLEASE I been looking everywhere and found nothing I hope to hear from someone soon thanks.
SAME
i really want to customize this. i really want to get rid off the animation. the point of quick glance is also to preserve battery. since super amoled only lit up the pixels used. i prefer just the time and notifications light up. NO ANIMATION.

here is the APK modded glance view.apk. this is the modded version by me with all animations removed with just a simple black background. and if you want a different background. just open the .apk with 7zip or equivalent and go to /res/raw/background.png and replace it with your own imagine with identical resolution.
when you are done. go place it in /system/app
*make sure you backup your original glanceview.apk in /system/app
* restart phone right after overwriting the apk.
*phone might restart itself right after overwriting, this is normal, and it will ONLY do it once.
please only do this at your own risk.

Is there an easy way to change font colours easily? I use iFont to change font styles but really want to change font colour so it will work well with bright colour wallpaper.
No as each apk sets the don't color staticly so you would have to edit all the base files and every apk

If you can decompile find the hex codes and replace them with ones of your choice then I suppose yes.

HTC SENSE 7 LAUNCHER FOR S6/S6 EDGE
Ok guys, so far this is just a base for a project, currently my device doesn't have root, therefore I'm doing what i can without. Therefore here is the sense 7 launcher working that can be installed on your Galaxy S6/Edge. Install both APK'S
Once/IF we get root i can definitely get things working better. However, in the meantime, when placing widgets you can jut tap them, and move them later.
