XPERIA™ Theme: Black

Useless, not black, typically Sony nowadays. No options for white text on black background anymore so remember to carry a charger everywhere.. Sony's help forum run by trolls who keep the mods on short leashes so don't expect your dissent and complaints to be tolerated there either... Ggwp Sony you broke something that worked well again...

Yes, I'm giving it one out of five for the same reason as everyone else. Not because I dislike it that much - but because it should have been a different theme altogether. I know this change has to do with the Xperia Z5, but change just for the sake of change isn't always the right thing.

Why are you guys ruining every thing every now n then.. What is wrong with you people. Sony is a global brand, people who love it, love it for it being Sony, the elegent, the robust, the reliable.. Simple the best.. But from quite sometime from past the Dev.team is simply killing the Sony heritage in every sony app. Be it related to audio, video or themes. No doubts, despite of all losses in the Sony culture, performance is improved for AV apps, but in themes, you guys are killing our eyecandies.. Stop it.. For better of people.. and yourself.

I have found a way around the new grey wallpaper and the turquoise message colours.. Firstly I selected the White theme (which uses grey in the sms area) then backed out to the 'Personalisation' screen and changed the wallpaper to the Xperia 'Live' multicoloured wallpaper, in the settings, you can then choose the Black background which is actually black and not the Grey as is the new update.. Hope this helps 😀

@DeV_Team at least you should give some explanation. If you need to comply with ggl's lollipop material design, please tell users that concept of app has changed or continue in your ignorance and withdraw the app if it cannot deliver prior requirements to meet users' expectations.tx

It's like ordering a rack of ribs and patiently waiting for it to be prepared, and then just after you start your meal the chef comes round and replaces it with some scaffolding. "Hang on a moment, this isn't exactly what I wanted anymore"

Instead of it I got a lot of blue stuff and other colors. And even the front page is not Black but rather dark grey. Please fix or make it possible to roll back to the previous version which was much more black than this one. For now I'm switching to the other theme

Turns the notification bar, and other elements, bright Cyan. Not black. Which it previously was. This is about to be uninstalled, unless the next update restores the black theme. In the meantime, I recommend others to use the preinstalled "white" theme, as the dark grey it uses is better than most of the other themes for neutrality.

Even custom launchers like GOlauncher have better themes than you Sony. I just wanted everything in only a good Black Background and everything else like the text in white, you did the complete opposite and totally ruined this theme. And can't you add extensions for music player and all other small things? Not only to this theme, but to every theme of yours! Samsung has achieved it very well FYI.

I never comment, but this had to be said. This theme was so nice and clean before, which such an elegant finish. Now it's just ruined. I had change my theme because I'm getting blue instead of black. Developers should rename this theme or get it corrected.

The last update messed up the theme. Yea I see the new wallpaper but I also see ugle blue Status Bar. Settings menu aint the same either and this theme used to help me get what I like. Now its just as useless as the others to me. Please Revert back to the old colours.

It's SONY... now no one will remember you as brand bcoz u have lost the trust i am paying so much money for such cheap flip cover bloody hell with u sony... Zero point from me...Sony see the covers for SAMSUNG and see ur u will feel shame...

After I finally managed to reinstall this app so it would work properly I'm getting more and more annoyed with this "smart" case. Apart from it's rather cheap look it doesn't even cover corners of the phone which are exposed to damages to higher extent. Big disappointment Sony

Have used this cover since I purchased my Z3; it's been great and i've had no problems. My phone has recently upgraded and now the case doesn't work. I've tried un and reinstalling but nothing works. Please fix it, when it works it's 5* but now it's unless.

I think Sony hasn't put its software dev staff through the color-blindness test before hiring them for a job which requires color vision. Petty mistakes like these are ensuring Sony's inexorable slide into irrelevance.

Just stoped working a few days ago and keeps crashing. Uninstalled and reinstalled several times but still crashes. Hopefully this will be fixed quick or I have a redundant cover which cost me £30.

So this was black, now since the update I got more blue then anything 😒,hope Sony can fix this soon

Dont like it, too much light blue and the screens are more grey than black and why cant l uninstall the update to fo back to the version l like.

It should be consistantly black though. Same complaint as most of the people here.

For those of you frustrated that this black theme is covered with light blue, go download Andrew Borodiy's Theme M Stock Turquoise. It actually has a very dark grey status bar.

I was using it to get rid of the lollipop colors and get a visual similar to kitkat. NOW YOU DESTROYED IT, THANK YOU.

Really hate this theme. Blue Aqua blue and just wall paper is black.. I expected much more than this from Sony

This was great until I woke up to the new update. I really hate the blue accents. Please fix it!

i hate the blue part especially in SMS..please make it black or gray at least, and i'll give you 5 stars

I personally like black. But I feel the app drawer background should have been similar to that of the wallpaper instead of being pure plain black.

Have you ever tried a black (true black though, not dark grey) and red kinda theme? Your panels can display a really nice, deep red. Why not make use of that? Oh, and please, add more screenshots of the theme itself.

It used to have this grey color which was meh okay almost black, but no it is blue.. You ought to change the description to "it's surprisingly blue".

Bring back the old BLACK is tried to not install this new update after other reviews, but no luck. The blue is sooooo annoying and the black is gone! Please issue the old version again. Used to be my favourite basic black theme!

The predictive text in blue kind of makes your eyes strain. Distracts your typing. Otherwise a great theme.

Hello , the icon of the signal doesnt work. Pls fix it. If you want i can send an email with printscreen
