Uninstall Theme?

[ConTejas]

I haven't tried any themes on JB yet. The only theme I used on ICS was a zip and it included a "remove" zip. Looks like the one I'm looking at is just an apk, so it's a simple as uninstalling any other app if I don't like it right? I'd imagine this one will go into the theme folder in setting whereas my old one wouldn't. Just want to make sure I'm thinking correctly. Thanks.

if its an APK then it is more than likely made to work with the T-Mobile theme chooser that is available on AOKP and CM9/10. It installs just like an app, yes, and uninstalls just as easily, but you must be running CM9/10 or AOKP to enable it.

And you will want to disable it before you uninstall it obviously, that could cause some problems if you dont.

Whoops. Well it wasn't as cool as I hoped and I uninstalled it. I didn't disable it but everything is fine.

I still have a question regarding zip themes. If it doesn't include an uninstall zip, how do you get rid of it? Do you have to reflash the rom?

ya...that will work.
wipe cache, dalvik cache and reflash the rom. That will get rid of the theme and you dont loose you data.
