There aren't really themes specific to the phone. Themes are specific to the theme format that you're using, and which theme format you're using will depend on which ROM you're using. There are two formats: Layers and CMTE (CyanogenMod Theme Engine). The stock ROM uses Layers, many custom ROMs use Layers also, and many other custom ROMs use CMTE. So you need to figure out which engine you're using and then find themes to suit it on the Play Store.

Thanks for the info sir!
If you're looking for a dark theme, stay away from Layers. It's so ****ty. Swift Dark CM13 theme for CMTE is excellent and is what I'd recommend.

I think you worded that a bit weird. All themes are going to have bugs, it's just that layers has some things it can't reach. You'll run into black on black text here and there with layers, but white UI is perfectly fine.

that's why i said "dark theme" I tried every black/dark theme with Layers and could not get a good match on everything. Mixing themes was cumbersome as well. End of the day I just installed Swift Dark on CMTE and everything works great so far.

The biggest advantage that Layers has is that it's less resource heavy whereas Cyanogenmod themes everything. I always felt like Cyanogenmod installed things super fast too.

Is there any way to get CMTE to work on the stock ROM (MHC19Q)?

Cmte does not theme everything. They both can do things the other can't. It's preference at this point. Cmte is more on the fly, in that way it is better, but layers is coming soon with that ability. But that's about the only real advantage along with system icons and boot animations included in the theme. Again, layers will have the capability soon also. I prefer layers over cmte all day. That's why I theme in layers instead. Person preference ...

Spectrum by Jeremy Beck is an amazing black theme for layers. Layers ftw.

Chameleon OS (or ChaOS for short) is a custom Android ROM that gives the user more control than they can experience on any other Android ROM. Starting with a CyanogenMOD base, we customize each piece to give ultimate control while maintaining the simplicity we all love about Android. The most notable feature of ChaOS is the theme engine, which can apply different pieces of themes in a true mix-and-match style. The launcher has been completely overhauled with tons of options that you'd normally need to download a third-party launcher for, such as home screen previews, folder sorting, and folder icon styles. The Messaging app has also had some UI retouches, including messaging bubbles and quick emoji button.
The entire framework of ChaOS has been modified around the theme engine, allowing for custom fonts, boot animations (with animated preview), and themes. No longer do you have to try to find the perfect theme, with Chameleon OS you can patch it together with your favorite pieces from different themes. Messaging, Phone, Status Bar, icons, everything can be set completely individually from each other which provides the capabilities to completely re-imagine your phone. Creating themes for the ChaOS Theme Engine is superbly simple and has extreme versatility.
Even with all of the features we've currently implemented, ChaOS will continue to mature with even more refined settings and features. We will be completely open source and will welcome developers to join us, whether it be by maintaining a device or utilizing our gerrit review. Even if you're not a developer, your voice will not go unheard. We will continually poll our users for the most wanted features and do our best to implement them.
Credits do not go to me.. I did not create this.

If you're using xposed installer and want a little more theming capability then try this out. Its an xposed module. You'll have to download it as well as some themes to work with it. It doesn't change style of icons really it more or less changes some colors/ windows. Due to the us variants not having custom recovery and the ability to flash a deodexed ROM it lacks the ability to theme what all it should but does add a few subtle changes. I've been using it for a couple years with out any problem.
Its not my work so I'm not taking credit for it just passing it along for others to enjoy. It works fine with my T-Mobile D959. There is a thread on XDA somewhere with a ton of CM/AOKP themes port to work with it. And on a deodexed system it does /changes as much as the CM based ROMs are changes by themes from the app market. I'm using the original COBALT theme at the moment and have used pitch black and HUE themes. Those seem to do the most theming. Those also make your Google now black and SMS and phone app changes a little to. Most every app downloaded from the play store will be themed like normal due to them not being odexed. OK enough of the jibber jabber. Here's a drop box link to the xthemer beta5 module and a few themes I have on hand.
Again not my work just passing along. And I'm not responsible for you making really nice soap dish out of your phone.

As well as some links to themes already ported to Xtheme BETA. I have tried most if them with out any issue. But still the couple that do the most theming / changes to our stock odexed ROM is "Pitch black" and "cobalt".

I mostly use the COBALT or the HUE theme. Those two seem to do the most to the odexed stock rom we use. But lately Ive been using the "HKTHEMER" for xposed installer. It can be found in the download tab in xposed installer. It lets you use all these same themes but you have the option to pick which apps get themed and which do not. With stock launcher I theme everything it will let me. But when Im running the GOOGLE NOW LAUNCHER I theme eveything with COBALT except the "Googlewidgetssearchbar.apk". For that i use the Pitch Black theme. It makes the grey are of the search bar shorter in height than the word "GOOGLE" and the mic icon on it as well. Just like the looks of it. But regaudless which launcher I use I dont theme the google keyboard since i use a themed google keyboard with the top row numbers..

I am using hkthemer as well. None of the themes seem to work the way they should. Battery icon is always really small and looks weird. The signal bars and clock colors or style never theme either. I used to love the unicon app for theming app icons which doesn't work either. I figured after I deodexed everything would work.

Yes Andromeda is required and costs. The one I suggested above does not (unless you want to theme some very small, particular, things) and allows you to customize everything yourself easily, including most of your apps. Plus, with Substratum, on Oreo, you have to run ADB commands on your computer to get it to work. With the Theme Galaxy app you just make your theme, install it, then apply it like a normal theme in Samsung themes. Also, the regular Samsung themes in the theme store do not usually theme notifications and many other areas of the system ui like the theme apps do.
