Homebrew Custom Theme Thread

How to get more than one? Put lz body, install it and then you can delete to put another bin?

Using cia's, but AFAIK these need to be signed so it doesn't work (Though it might if you're using CFW)

You mean create cia of custom theme?? (Or modify a installed theme as cia?)

create a .cia of the theme (can be done with https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-theme-customization-tools.374206/)

ChrisCerne you should compile some of these themes into the main post to make them easier to find. Maybe with some spoilers for pics as well.

No it should not replace all themes (I think it replaces on of the mario ones)
There are 2 files for making the cia's
make_theme_eur.bat
make_theme_usa.bat
Just run the one for your region and it should make a cia (You will need some things installed for it to work though)
and remember without cfw IT WILL NOT WORK AS IT IS NOT SIGNED!!!

I tried with lz body bin in example, tried in all folders, but after i run batch, he sayd me "makerom is not recognized as internal or external..."... anyway i dont have CFW, i want to know all this but about gateway XD how to have, if possible, more than one custom theme with HomeMenu_ExtDataTool.cia, not cfw

As I said you'll need to install some things (one of them being makerom)
Anyway your body_LZ.bin should be in /data

even if you create the cia, you can't install it with gateway. we have to wait for them to make something to allow unsigned cias.
as for now, with gateway you can have only one custom theme at a time, and every time you change theme you have to reinstall it. in fact we replace the current theme's files in a certain location instead of installing new themes.

So im right, with GW only one custom theme at time...

Nopw, you're to put "makerom.exe" in your ThemeCreator folder, just google It

Place this exe in the same folder as the files you make the themes in (the folder with the custom theme tool)
I'm sorry I won't be able to help you any further as I don't have a gateway myself!

But makerom is included in custom theme tool rar... this is why i ask because sayd me is not recognized...
Anyway you want to help a GW user without you have a GW? XD Ahaha thanks anyway you only lost time with me so XD

Is the makerom.exe in the same folder as the the make_theme_region.bat file?
And I'm allways willing to help others out I do know a little about how it works so yeah, I at least tried right?

 

[Lord M]

in CustomThemeTool 1.1, makerom is in CustomThemeTool\tool folder, and you are right XD, i tried to copy on main folder and it work now, anyway we filled this thread useless for now, because, as you say: i cant use unsigned themes on GW

(Sorry I couldn't stop myself)

So, my 3DS has ninjhax and has homebrew working. However, I do not have any non-default themes downloaded. Since I cannot connect to the eShop (or theme shop), because it asks to update my firmware, am I screwed? I put the Kingdom Hearts theme on, but when I closed the 3DS and re-opened it, it went back to white.
