Motorola Droid :: How Do Themes Work?
Oct 17, 2010
When you download a theme it is XX.XMB. Does that amount get added on to the original ROM, or does it replace the information in the original ROM?The reason I ask is because I have always been curious as to if a theme in theory would slow down a ROM? I mean I know that even if it did it would be so miniscule that nobody would surely notice, but I'm curious just the same.

All I really want is a black notification bar. I like the stock icons, I prefer the green color scheme to the blue that a lot of roms change it to. But really anything would be better than the stock white. Any themes out there that work with the new BB? The couple I've tried cause the phone to fail to boot (stuck at Motorola screen)

I'm running the leaked 2.2, rooted, deodexed, themed and all that fun stuff. When the official 2.2 comes I plan on sbf'ing back to 2.1 to get that update since I am having a couple small issues with the leak. Questions are, since deodexing worked on the leak it should work the same way on the official right? to re-root, it sounds like people have been having luck using the droid 2 method in adb, so I should be able to run that to get root back? Themes for the leaked 2.2 should also work for the official 2.2 too? Or is this the same "we dont know till it actually comes" issue?

I have searched for this but didn't really find a clear answer. I am running BB Froyo 0.4---can themes be installed over other themes? IE- can I install blue energy over Xtheme? Is there a way to revert back to the generic BB with no theme or do I need to restore a backup to accomplish this?

I have the Droid, Android's just released 2.1, and I downloaded dxtop, which in itself seems to work fine.
However, when I install dxtop themes, they seem to download and install OK from the Market screens and the pulldown status bar, but when I go to install them they are nowhere to be found.
The documentation I have found, even by dxtop itself, is nebulous about (finding and) installing the themes.

Probably silly question but was wondering if we could apply any of the themes to the 2.2. leaked.

I have seen the Nextheme and am currently using the Revolution theme. Are there any other out there. Ive seen some for the Droid 1 on other forums just didn't know if they worked for the X or not.

Anyone recommend a good theme? I'm running bugless beat 0.4 but don't mind switching roms around. Every theme I have found has little to no change. I'm looking for something to blow me away LOL

Is there any way to mix themes?
I used the 928 black glass theme because it included the deodex, but i didn't like how it looked. I later upgraded to nextheme, then revolution.
However, it seems there are still some remnants of 928 on my droid (e.g. the universal inbox still looks like 928 with the blue reload symbol).
I would like to get rid of that (go back to the stock universal inbox) and I would like to get the colorful icons for the settings list that was in Nextheme but not in Revolution.

Basically, do you need to root your phone, to get apps to work? I've been reading around the net, and I've seen some things where it says that certain apps may require the phone to be rooted or what have you. Being an Android n00b, I have no idea what this means!. Also, is this the case for installing new themes? Does the phone have to be rooted for this?

I have about 300 hours of reading in and I am still sitting with a Droid X, 2.2 OTA and no root. I know how to root with rootmyx2 1-click method, not an issue. Was rooted before 2.2 and didn't want any leaked versions.
I have every tool that I would ever need. Root Explorer, Titanium BU, ROM Manager and Droid X Recovery Bootstrap.
But I can't get a straight answer for what ROM's I can install with the 2.2 OTA and which ones deodex for me. I know the 928DroidBlackGlassX-DroidX-OTA2315-DeOdexEERR-THEME will deodex for you but from what I read you have to have a ROM first. So confused.
I read FlyX has been put on the 2.2 w/out deodex and others say you need it first.
I'm just looking for the easiest step-by-step instructions to get set up for themes on a DX 2.2 Official 2.2 OTA.

I have never rooted before and I am about to give it a whirl. I am not worried about the consequences really, I feel pretty confident I can follow directions. My only issue is, after browsing these forums I am completely lost on what rom to use! I see some people saying beast and various other custom roms, then I see some saying "vanilla" Froyo is the way to go.
1) What rom SHOULD a first timer use?
2) Where do you find it?
3) What is the most newb friendly rom loader?
4) Can I use any of these custom themes I see with any custom rom or do I need the "vanilla"?
5) Does WiFi work in all of the Froyo roms now?
6) Are there a list of known issues with specific custom roms available or even "vanilla" froyo?
7) Will my purchased apps that are updated to work in 2.2 work?

What has everyone found for the 2.1 roms. I know there is already a Themes thread but most of them are for 2.0.1, Im running BB v9 and a mix of Smokedglassframe 2.1 and Flavored Ice. Here is what I have found so far. Smoked Glass Frame. MM Smoked Glass Framework for 2.1 - Droid Forum - Verizon Droid & the Motorola Droid Forum. Here is how you can go back to stock. ERE25 (2.1 "official rom) Stock theme and the Barfix is so you can see your clock. So you dont have to edit anything.

I am new to rooting and custom roms, so I have a couple of questions about flashing different themes. I currently am using ss4.6 w/ stock kernal and works great. So the ? is when adding a theme do I just put it on the sd card in update.zip form and install over the rom without wiping anything? BTW I rooted the old fashioned way with rsd lite and have been using sprecovery to flash the roms.

I just tried DropTheme and no go via MM. I have smoked glass per the v1.1 download, but I like some more color.
I am going to try Luna Theme tonight. Maybe NexTheme or some others if I can find them for BB. I know it's a bit soon for this question regarding v1.1, but I figured.

I like the stock launcher the best, along with the Motorola widgets. Well actually, I just need the quick tasks for contacts, which is why I want the widgets. When I apply themes, is there any way to keep the stock launcher instead of the preinstalled ADW or LP? And if so, will this allow me to use the Moto widgets? Or are these widgets/Blur part of something else?
