Learn About Theming and Create Your Own Theme Easily

1621964_619674534754622_1152769396_n

Android is extremely popular largely due to the fact that users can easily modify its look, which applications to use, and basically anything else. Changing your look is not only a wallpaper, launcher, or new icons. Rather, some deep changes can be done with custom themes that are not so hard to create.


With elementary knowledge of photo editing and a willingness to learn, you can create your own theme. XDA Senior Member Ayush Singh wrote a thorough guide on understanding the process of making a theme. The guide initially was aimed at the Sony Xperia Z1, but it can be used with almost every device, as themes don’t differ much in their structure. Ayush Singh presents the process with text and some screenshots, so so you can easily compare them to your own work in progress. Theming brings a lot of fun and can totally change the look of your device. With slight modifications, you can build a theme alongside your personal ROM.


You can find everything you need to create a theme by visiting the guide thread. Make your way there and start reading. And while you’re at it, check out yesterday’s interview with a popular theme creator.


Boot Multiple Roms on the HTC Droid DNA with Unofficial MultiROM Port

droiddna

It seems like XDA Recognized Developer Tassadar‘s MultiROM seems to be quite the popular method for different devices to boot multiple ROMs nowadays, considering that MultiROM was originally developed for only the Nexus 7 and has since been ported over to a number of other phones such as the Sony Xperia M and the Optimus One. And the community doesn’t look like stopping any time soon, as the HTC Droid DNA, a.k.a. HTC Butterfly, has recently received an unofficial MultiROM port.


This comes thanks to the efforts of XDA Senior Member jamiethemorris, making it possible for users of the Droid DNA to run multiple ROMs (not at the same time of course) without the hassle other devices must go through. The installation process comes in three parts:



  1. flashing the provided MultiROM zip through a custom recovery

  2. flash the provided modified recovery through fastboot or with Flashify

  3. install a kernel with the kexec-hardboot patch (currently only supports two kernels with more to be added in the future)


Installation will not wipe or affect the sole, primary ROM you’re using right now. Additionally, you can run ROMs installed on a USB drive, which has to be connected to the phone with an OTG cable. To boot another ROM, you simply choose from those installed on your device or a USB drive from a menu at startup, and you’re good to go.


So if you’re interested in booting multiple roms on your Droid DNA, or would like to find out more, check out the original thread for more information.


Android App Review: Lock Your Private Data with ZDlock – XDA Developer TV

I think Dwight K. Schrute from the documentary “The Office” put is best when he said, “With today’s modern surveillance technology, we are in a constant state of being watched—whether it’s our government or the government of other countries a.k.a. Google.” And while that’s true, there are even less threatening people who can get ahold of your information just by using your device.


XDA Senior Member ikaola offers up an application to quickly and easily protect your device.* In this video, XDA Developer TV Producer TK reviews ZDLock. TK shows off the application and gives his thoughts, so check out this app review.
