EmulationStation Themes[edit]

AmberELEC/PAN4ELEC has the best theme compatibility. ArkOS uses an older EmulationStation version and lots of themes from the Emulationstation-OGA-Theme-Gallery have problems on ArkOS, like a cut off battery percentage and menu navigation. Some are even causing crashes when applying grid game list style, and some theme configuration options may be broken on ArkOS.

The following themes have been tested on the BATLEXP G350 running ArkOS. Screenshots have been taken directly from the device via ssh.

Thanks to all the devs for creating these awesome themes!

Applying Themes[edit]

On ArkOS themes are located on the SD card on the "EASYROMS" partition and "Themes" folder. You can also install themes using the built-in tool THEMEMASTER (requires internet connection).

If you want to make a new theme, or edit or add layouts, fonts, features, sizes, etc. on an existing theme you need to edit code in the xml files. If you don't have experience with editing code in xml files, it's suggested to start by making small changes like text or image position to a theme which you like. Here's some documentation of the code for emulationstation themes:

For fast testing you can transfer changed files via wifi and change any theme setting to refresh the changes. You can also test on PC with Retrobat after changing resolution to 640x480.
