So I have installed TeXlive 2013 following the steps here I was previously using my custom theme called beamerthemeEinstein.sty
that I placed at
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/beamer/base/themes/theme
then I run
sudo texhash
and it worked amazingly.
Now with TeXlive 2013 my custom theme is not recognized, I get
! LaTeX Error: File `beamerthemeEinstein.sty' not found.
Where should I place it now? Anyone knows where to place custom themes using the 2013 version? Many thanks!

The command
will show you the path to the local system-wide tree which will not be modifed by updates of TL; it will usually be "next" to the texmf tree, as @sigur says.
will show you the path to your user-specific tree, probably
/home/(username)/texmf
. (For more information, see TeXlive docs on user texmf trees, in particular the statement-by-omission that you don't need to refresh filename databases for new files in TEXMFHOME.
