Theme Manager Ex is an advanced theme manger for PS Vita that introduces a new type of custom themes: extended themes.
It was a contest entry to the GekiHEN Homebrew Contest.
Features
- Manage your themes.
- Apply and unset Official themes.
- Apply and unset Custom themes.
- Supports Extended Themes.
User guide
For theme creators, you will be able to:
- Customize icons of any app (system/games/homebrews).
- Customize the live area (background and startup/gate) of any app (system/games/homebrews).
- Customize the live area frames (text and images in the live area) of ANY app (system/games/homebrews).
- Customize the splash screen and the title color of ANY app that support them (usually system apps).
- Customize Adrenaline without messing with IDs or dds.
For users, you will have an awesome homescreen. No need to mess with ur0 or system files, theme Manager Ex will do the hard work for you,
Extended themes are backwards compatible, ie, you can apply an extended theme using the official Settings App (the extended resources will be ignored).
All the info you need to build extended themes can be found at Theme Manager Ex Wiki.
Samples
Here you can find a few sample themes, their purpose is to show you what you will be able to do with Theme Manager Ex:
- stock-ps (Stock PS Vita) - This is not a theme, use this to restore your system resources if something wrong happens.
- thmx-preview: - A sample theme to show everyone what Thmx can do.
- ps_switch - A more complete theme inspired by the Switch UI.
To use, place them in your theme folder.
About official firmware
Please note that to unset an extended theme you need Theme Manager Ex, thus an Henkaku enabled device.
If you apply an Extended Theme with Theme Manager Ex, system resources may change, and this means that you cannot restore them in an official firmware unless you reinstall the FW itself.
You can safely apply Extended Themes from the Settings App if are using an official FW.
Controls
Up/Down/Left/Right - Select an element
Triangle - Open the menu
Circle - Go back
