Alright, seeing that people (myself included) are posting screenshots of non-theme-chooser themes, an action that appears to be disturbing other users (no problem, I understand). I have decided to edit the OP, and say that people can post screenshots of themes that are not on the list. It seems fair because even I have posted screenshots of themes that were not theme chooser themes (but hey, maybe one day it could be one :fingers-crossed:). I blame myself for not including that in the OP to start with. However, screenshots from now on that are posted in this thread are to be screenshots of themes that are not on the list as of the time the poster posts.

I think that change is fair (because no one has posted screenshots of themes that are on the list). This modification to the OP will also prevent many screenshot posts from cluttering the thread. And I also think it is fair for people to discuss the creation of a theme chooser theme. We NEED more xoom compatible themes on the list.

EDIT: Just no more screenshots alright? Alright.

As a bonus idea, if you have a non-theme-chooser theme that is compatible with the xoom, consider making your theme theme-chooser compatible, that would really help the community.

Thank you.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] bigrushdog:
Ugh. Let me help a little if i may. The idea was to have a simple place where users could go to get theme Chooser themes. "Here's a list. There's the link. Downloading...." not oh look, a rumor about some dudes theme that's not even a theme Chooser theme. There's an entire themes and apps board for all that and has no business in this thread. That was my intent. :cowboy:
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
Actually, bigrushdog is right. This isn't a thread on non-theme-Chooser themes. 86 the idea of posting non-theme-chooser themes and screenshots. I have been stretching the limits of this thread (And I regret it), but now the thread is going to return to its humble origins. If something has nothing to with theme chooser, it doesn't belong here.

Thank you bigrushdog.

Yes, I do see now, thanks for the heads up and I decided that I will stick to the original intent for this thread from now on.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Draxin:
So, Is Dyelon the OP now?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] wesamothman:
Yosterwp is the OP. We are here to help him and xoomers community to collect as much working themes as possible...
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
Thanks wesamothman. Dyelon is not the OP of this thread. I am. If i have to change the rules of this thread a million times to make it a great thread, then expect a million changes. I have no issues with accepting help from other users.

This is XDA, expect help from others.

Instead of commenting about who's OP (not pointing fingers at anyone), Dyelon did suggest we be on topic on this thread. Bigrushdog said the same thing. And they were both right. So I made changes to this thread accordingly.

This decision is final. And this discussion ends here. From here on out, posts are to be about theme chooser themes only.

Thank you.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
Back on track with theme chooser themes, I have just added one:D. I made it myself (so don't expect it to be spectacular:o). It takes some elements from honeycomb and adds it to ICS. I used some of Jasonevil's Xperia theme to help me.

Check it out! Thanks.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Dyelon:
awesome....thanks dude. I'm having fun with the theme chooser, makes me happy that I've stuck with the team EOS nightly since the first day I got (and rooted, same day of course haha) my xoom.

I haven't tried changing the DPI when faced with error messages yet, just been trudging right through and leaving it as is. does anyone know if it makes a significant difference?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] bigrushdog:
Thoughts on dpi... I recommend adding settings and your dpi changer app to lock screen shortcuts. I found the hard way that systemui fcs upon reboot when dpi is set to 240. So when you reboot, you can access the theme changer from the settings shortcut and reset your dpi .
[Xoom Themes and Apps] runandhide05:
let me put a word of caution out there in regards to some theme choosers, ive been testing and what not and noticed an odd issuse with the apks that theme the IME,

see screen shot,

basicaly to reproduce issue, open keybaord in any app in landscape and turn to portrait. keybaord stays as if it were still landscape...hmm
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Dyelon:
Problems like this further make me feel that its not worth the trouble messing with the dpi
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
I saw your post and tried it out myself and I couldn't reproduce the issue with multiple themes. Have you tried rebooting? I know some themes go wonky without a reboot.

I added that tip to my second post. Its funny how I just made that mistake before you posted that:silly
[Xoom Themes and Apps] runandhide05:
HAHAHA... yes I did... I haven't been asked such a noob question in so long.. ha! ( not saying your a noob asking the question.. saying that is a question someone would ask a beginner )

I got a kick out of that.

I can reproduce it every time. With rebootz and what not. I wouldn't have posted it if i didn't accurately trouble shoot it.

Just putting the info out the is all.

Also I would say almost all themes need a reboot before they work properly
[Xoom Themes and Apps] bigrushdog:
One addition to that. Make sure the shortcuts appear on the left side of the ring. The dpi change pushes the right side of the ring off the screen. The dpi change is a bit wonky but it works.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
If you thought it was funny reading it, try writing it!:D Does your issue happen when you are using other roms?

I'll add that too.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Legato Bluesummers:
I can't get PCB Blue to work. I can download it fine. But it says it was not compiled properly. :-( I'm guessing this is where I need to change DPI?

Edit: tried changing DPI to 240 then reboot. Still wouldn't apply theme. :-( what am I doing wrong? I got the version linked in the first post. :-( Still says compiled incorrectly.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
Hmmm.... That's interesting. What rom are you using? I was able to apply the theme without any problems. I am using the Team EOS Nightlies for the wifi xoom.

This may seem really odd, but when I was trying to make my theme, sometimes, my theme would get that error when I held my xoom in landscape, but when I held my xoom in portrait, it went through fine. Of course my theme doesn't do that anymore to my xoom...
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Legato Bluesummers:
I'm on the latest EOS nightly. That's why I'm so confused. LoL I will try that landscape trick. Thanks.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
I figured this list is a bit small. So I thought I would make a guide on making Theme Chooser themes in general. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1730445. It is really geared towards people who are new towards theming (not saying I am not new...:silly:).

It's not the best guide out there, but I am hoping this will fire up more themes for theme chooser, and hopefully more theme would be compatible with our xooms.:laugh:
[Xoom Themes and Apps] wesamothman:
Expanding the list with two more lovely themes.

@yosterwp, please add them to your precious list :)

1) slow motion cm9/aokp theme

2) yellow bird cm9/aokp theme
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Legato Bluesummers:
Did a full wipe and now I can apply the PCB theme. Looks sick.

Was rocking the Purple Kush AOKP/CM9 theme (had to reboot as 240 density first). The dev reskinned a crap ton of icons.

Now I'm using the Supernova AOKP/CM9 theme

Glad a simple wipe fixed it all.

--Sent from GlaDos baked potato
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
I've updated the OP with the Cobalt themes and Purple Kush themes by dustinb. In my experience, I had to change the DPI on my xoom to apply them. I had a hard time using 240dpi, so oddly enough, 120 worked fine!

And I added Supernova

EDIT: And I added ICS Fixer

EDIT: And I added Zeon Green
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Aphex33:
+1 for PCB BLUE.....working on official CM9:cool:
[Xoom Themes and Apps] wesamothman:
Hi yosterwp.

Thanks for the great additions. Could you check my earlier post? I added 2 themes that work without changing the dpi from the same dev of afterburner.

They look good. Let me know your comments :)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
Oh my bad! I completely missed that on my xoom! :o This is probably a sign that i need to get one of those forum apps... Either the XDA app or Tapatalk.

Anyways, let me add those right away! :)

EDIT: Done! And I tried some of the other ones from A.C.R. Development too.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ouldsmobile:
Did you ever manage to get the PCB theme working. I am having the same issue. I had it working on a Team EOS nightly, then switched over to CM9 to try it out and am getting the "Not compiled properly...." error now. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling but no dice. Weird.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
Try setting your dpi to 120. It seems that theme chooser has no issues applying themes at that dpi.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] ouldsmobile:
Actually I ended up getting it working by uninstalling, re-applying the "system" theme, reinstalling PCB theme and then applying, with a reboot between each step for good measure. Works now. Odd.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Dyelon:
I have a question....I just installed supernova and I'm digging the green and purple alot....bad ass.

but the soft keys are really low res. I tried doing the dpi change but it errored when I did so I just applied it on regular res.

1) does the res thing affect the soft keys? cause everything else looks fine

2) I tried flashing a different soft key and it didn't work.....is there anyway to flash custom soft keys on top of a theme?

also if I extract the apk, could I get the icons out of it? and whats most efficient way to extract? I had trouble last time I tried
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
Well, if you want to remove the icons from an apk, simply renaming the apk to zip, removing files, then renaming back to apk might not work.

What softkeys are you trying to flash? If you check my sig, I have softkeys that are from the xoom2. Or you could try iammodo's softkeys for the xoom too.

If you are using the EOS rom, you can try custom softkeys in the EOS Settings. Something similar is present in Rom Control if you are using AOKP.

But if you are really looking into changing the apk, then you will need to decompile the apk, delete /res/values/public.xml then delete the files you want. When you are done with that, you would have to recompile the apk. I also have a guide for things like that in my sig, skip the parts that relate to distributing the theme though.

Hope that helps...
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Dyelon:
Yeah, I tried changing the apk to. Zip but couldnt find any softkey images. I just really like this supernova rom....its so cool....but the softkeys look really low Res. All icons and menus look fantastic but the softkeys are lame. And u can't just flash softkeys over them in recovery....the themes keys stay.

Gr
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Dyelon:
Oh wow! I just flashed grunge text for ****s and giggles and it didn't work BUT the supernova softkeys shrunk a bit to a lower Res and look really sharp! Haha!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Mjamocha:
Deylon- even though your question has nothing to with theme choosers that work with Xoom

(LOL at previous thrown tantrum)

Here is a sloppy, dumb'd down way to accomplish what you want to do. The Softkeys are inside the SystemUI. With root explorer or similar application, Extract the SuperNova ROM.zip, navigate to System/app find SystemUI.apk -extract it, locate the softkeys, delete them, and replace the softkeys with the ones of your choice. Recompile (rezip) the modified SystemUI.apk, drop it back into the res/settings/app directory of said (not as awesome as EOS ROM :p) recompile (rezip) the extracted SuperNovaROM.zip Reflash. If you did it correctly your new softkeys will be displayed after reboot.

/end sarcasm/laughter

Happy 4th everyone!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Dyelon:
Of course my question is relevant.....using a theme blocks the ability to flash new softkeys from recovery, so i asked for a workaround.

I never threw a tantrum, I told you I meant no disrespect because I didn't nor do now, and suggested that your flashable ui doesn't really belong here. And I only did that because I love this theme Chooser feature and don't want people who agree to not contribute because of distractions. Im sorry about the whole thing.

Anyway, the parts of your workaround that im having trouble with are the locating of the softkey files. I looked in the systemui.apk of the softkey package and I found a softkey but it was plain (not the fancy softkey that the package should have) so i was confused. Another thing that confused me was that there about eight folders inside the "Res" folder, so it hard to pinpoint where they'd be.

Thanks for the help.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Mjamocha:
Hmm
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Dyelon:
I tried flashing softkeys again and they didn't flash but when I rebooted the softkeys were smaller and now look higher Res....

Sweet!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] runandhide05:
If you r looking for the soft keys that are in a theme you are wanting to install on the xoom decompile the theme, look in the res/drawable-mdip and search for pngs labels ending if is_sysbar_home one for back and the one for recent and menu, change the pngs to what u want the sofkeys to be, and then recompile the apk, sign it and install. All done

If that's not what u r asking sorry..

[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
Have you tried changing the DPI on your xoom? For me, all themes seem to apply when I change my xoom's DPI to 120 (LDPI). If you are not sure on how to change your DPI, go to the Play Store, and look up "LCD Density". Any of the apps listed there should suffice. In the app, change your DPI to 120 (or something else if you prefer), and then reboot your tablet. Then go to theme chooser and apply the theme that wasn't working before. After that, go back and change your DPI back to 160 or MDPI. Reboot and enjoy!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Legato Bluesummers:
Make sure when you do that to so what one of the devs recomended...I forget which...put the settings icon and LCD changer icon on you lock screen ffirst. When you change your density you lose your softkeys and have no way to navigate. Or at least I didn't at 240. So put those on your lock screen first. Then if your systemUI force closes on you on reboot. Hit the lock. Go to unlock. Click settings. Apply theme. Lock device. Click unlock density change back to stock and reboot.

--Sent from GlaDos baked potato
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
That's a good tip! It's a definite must when changing the DPI to 240. However, changing the DPI to 120 might be easier as everything still remains in tablet-mode and systemui doesn't seem to fc. But your results may vary.

Hope that helps.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Legato Bluesummers:
Seriously? Oh I will have to try that from now on. Cause the constant systemUI FC gets old fast. Same with the no navigation buttons. LoL great tip.

I am using the EOS JellyBean Nightlies now, and that theme does look pretty good (not that JB is dramatically different from ICS in terms of appearance,,). I wasn't sure if this theme required a DPI change to apply, so I didn't put it in the DPI-change-needed-themes section. But tell me if it does need a DPI change.

But that theme has been added!
[Xoom Themes and Apps] wesamothman:
Thx buddy for keeping this thread updated. Great op. And you are absolutely right. It doesn't require dpi adjustments, works as is :)

Could someone please tell me where I'm going wrong here......I am running TeamEos 2.0.0 rom ,and cannot find anywhere on the device to change themes,no Theme Chooser app installed or no option in settings etc. Do I need to flash anything,or is it not supported on this rom?
[Xoom Themes and Apps] rob62551:
You have to flash an EOS ICS nightly. I can't remember when they added it. Do use an ICS nightly as the EOS 3 nighlys are Jelly Bean and there are no themes yet.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] transmaniacon:
Thanks Rob,just one or two points...can I just do a straight flash of a Nightlies rom,or need to do a clean install ? Not sure I want to risk losing all the stuff I've put on this.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
Well, it is always recommended to wipe everything, basically factory resetting your device in recovery. It eliminates most issues they you may come across later. Your internal storage should be safe and titanium backup should handle your apps and app data.

Hope that helps.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] wesamothman:
Some people would want to have JB ROM and others to stay on ICS ROM, EOS of course,

so, it would be great buddy if you can split the list (categorizing) what works on JB and what works on ICS :)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] J3bu5Cru57:
I'm not sure why those or any HDPI themes aren't working for jb. Even with changing the DPI density they still give the improperly compiled error. Hopefully it's temporary and will be fixed in future nightlies otherwise there goes a third of usable themes.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
Hmmm... Let me jump onto my computer and see what I can do. I can see the importance in categorizing the list.

EDIT: I have started categorizing the list, the list may look a bit wonky for a little bit. That is because I am saving the changes as I go. Thank you. :)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] yosterwp:
With the addition of Theme Chooser being added to JellyBean ROMs, the Theme Chooser list has been modified to show themes that work with ICS only, JB only, and both ICS and JB.

Right now, the JB list and the ICS/JB list is small, and it appears that the EOS JB Nighlies (128) has an issue with the DPI Change method. I'd hold off on DPI changing right now if you are on JellyBean.

Oh yeah, and I have added the Black Exodus theme to the list!
