Couldn't find anything else on this, but can't image I will be the only one (although in the xtrestothread there was another user facing the same issue) experiencing this...
After flashing 5.1.1 (Xtrestolite) on my S6 I noticed an annoying thing. When changing my dpi to 480 (and also 520) and applying a theme I got a message after rotating my phone to landscape mode (for example in the browser or camera app.
A dialog appeared with the title "Keyboard cover attached" and the message "Unable to apply downloaded themes while the keyboard cover is attached. The default theme will be applied". Pressing ok applies the default samsung theme and the only other option is to rotate the phone back to portrait after which the dialog disappears.
The issue seems to be with the ThemeCenter.apk in the /system/priv-app/ThemeCenter folder, I'll check if I can patch it somehow but in the meantime I have a dirty workaround... after applying the theme you want just rename the 'ThemeCenter.apk' to something like 'ThemeCenter.apk.mod'. Reboot the phone and you can rotate the phone as you wish without getting the msg and the stock theme being applied.
Only downside is you can not apply other themes while having it renamed (read disabled). Going to Themes in settings gives a crash, but at least the theme sticks now. If you wish to change the theme again, just rename the apk back to normal and reboot. Most likely the default theme will be applied again but you can now change it (and after changing, same procedure... rename and reboot).
For me this is good enough as I just want the material theme, so not too much hassle. Hopefully it will be of use to others as well.
Thanks! This workaround is exactly what I was looking for! Works with my Navbar + theme issue.

What is this for? Afaik this issue is still there with 5.1.1... Reflashing stock will reset the theme to default which indeed gets rid of the msg... But setting another team will make it appear again.
Got this message too...
My solution was to freeze ThemeCenter with Titanium Backup.
But it's only a workaround, cause you have to unfreeze the app to change themes...

Thanks a lot!! That's exactly what i was looking for
After some testing, it triggers if you set the density to 526dpi or lower. 527 and up is ok.
Thanks! Freezing in Titanium Backup helped
I found a solution.
You can use AppOps to limit it's permissions. Disable the draw on top permission and you won't have to freeze it nor remove it. You can change the theme anytime you like...

Install appops from google play store. Open it and tap install then reboot.... Then open it and slide to device and find the app Themes and tap on it and uncheck Draw on top. But once you want to apply another theme, change it back

Hey guys,
After realizing how fantastic the tab is after switching to 182 dpi I figured I'd fix up some of the apps to fit better.
Thanks to Xan from this thread for the quick tool and batch script to make the changes.
These apks are from Overcome 1.6.3 and should work on other dpi settings as well.
Instructions, push the new files to /system/app after mounting the system rw, or using root explorer..
*Edit May 4th* I've attached an updated Email.apk as well
Disclaimer:The Standard disclaimer applies, I'm not responsible if this causes boot loops, any other issues with your Tab, or giant meteors to crash into your car.Backup the files you are replacing first.
So u did rename framework-res to 1.apk and twframwork to 2.apk.. decompiling phone & contacts worked for me. Give me a howl if it didn't work and ill zip up mine and send it..
oh im editing overcome145 - not tested 163
just a friendly tip, might be a idea to use frameworks from a stock 2.2.1 rom instead from a moddified rom, might be a glitch there..
yup, sure did.
*edit* think I've got it now, I compiled the new apktool and started fresh..
Can you post screen shots
I tried, but ddms doesn't capture them correctly. The change makes the apps pretty much look exactly like they do at 240dpi.
can you change the email app too please? when i go into the landscape 2 pane mode, the left pane doesnot appear correctly.
thanks
Yeah for sure. Ill have a look and fix it tomorrow..

Phone might be a tough one, any time I adjust the xml's at all it just crashes out the phone app when you end a call, thereby restarting the modem.. Best temp fix I can think of is to adjust the png for the end call button to be transparent on the right hand side.
I'll keep plugging away at it though.
Noticed it too, tested just changing background to black, and it would behave the same, fc on inn or out going.??

I might be missing something here but I can't apply a wallpaper without it being either bad quality (even with a high quality image) or misc. launchers and apps. I am running CM7.
I have the same problem, and also the wallpaper keeps changing to the wallpaper from the lock screen. I'm sure there's a solution posted somewhere.
I'm sure there are plenty of ways to do this, but I used the Kindle Fire Utility. Under "Extras", there's an option to lock or unlock the wallpaper. Unlock the wallpaper, make your change, and then lock it again. Mine hasn't changed since.
I think the quality problem has something to do with how the device is scaling the image if it's not the correct resolution.
I found that it's very hard to get a wallpaper to look good in both landscape and portrait view depending on the resolution. This is unfortunate because I have a ton of wallpapers that would look great on the kindle but they just don't display right.
Having issues with this myself...tried the lock / unlock..no luck.

The default factory setting is unlocked (and lock screen changes the wallpaper every time it is cycled) so use bebrooks1 method (post #3)...it worked for me on stock rooted.

As far as I know, the accepted method for properly setting wallpapers (on Android in general) is to use an app such as Wallpaper Set And Save from the market. It'll set the wallpaper at the original image quality.
I always use Wallpaper Wizardri to set my wallpapers......but with this postiive comes a negative....for some reason it constantly runs in the background. I just use Titanium Backup Pro to freeze it and unfreeze it whenever I need to change wallpapers. Works like a charm.

Downloaded this app and tried it out and it doesnt work. The wallpaper is still very blurry. Looks nothing like the image i selected for the wallpaper.
To change the wallpaper on your kindle and make it "stick", do the following:
Set your wallpaper
Open Root Explorer
Navigate to data/data/com.Android.settings/files/wallpaper
Long press on wallpaper, select permissions from the menu that drops down.
Uncheck the "write" permission for all users then click OK.

Yes I am.
It's /data/, not /sdcard/data or anything else.
I assume you are rooted...what file explorer are you using?
I use ES File Explorer 1.6.1.0 from the Market (not Amazon because last I checked they were a version or two behind)
Then go into settings a scroll to bottom and select ROOT EXPLORER and when asked I think I selected the CM option (and for good measure select MOUNT FILE SYSTEM, although I don't think that is required unless you are working in the /system/ folder).
Now you should see the contents of the /data/ folder...
Hope this helps.

Has anyone figured this out yet? There's a lot of talk in this thread about something entirely different. Most of us know how to make it so the wallpapers no longer change.
What I'm curious about is how to set a wallpaper and not have it extremely stretched and blurry. Neither of the apps listed on the previous page achieve this goal (Wallpaper Set and Save & Wallpaper Wizardii).
This is on the stock ROM (using Go Launcher EX).

Download Wallbase. It's a wallpaper app that I've had excellent results with. Not everything out there will work with tablets. This one does and has TONS of wallpapers in it, HD, and just about all of them look like they were made for tablets.
By the way, the mod that was given earlier regarding how to keep your wallpaper from changing WORKS.

The no wallpaper happened to me one so I l looked on my sdcard Where i put em, in download folder I pressed and viewed in whatever gallery etc, then set as wall. Afterwards when back looking for /data/data/com.android.settings/files I saw wallpaper whose permissions in write column had to be changed.

Allows you to adjust the RGB values, change the sharpness and color temperature for Dynamic, Standard and Movie modes.
All changes are applied immediately.
This is not a service or background process.
After making changes you can uninstall the app and settings will stay in.

Im also getting the force close LOL but my colors are not screwed up but no difference now between standard and dynamic, looks like its stuck to dynamic ~_~
Doesn't look much different to Screen adjuster.
There doesn't appear to be a gamma curve calibration which is what is really needed.
so any suggestion to reset settings? now im getting only force closes :/

i think this program can be very usefull fpr galaxy note. I made some settings within color banding became not so big. Please test my solution and say is it better a bit. Firstly go to settings-display-screen mode and choose dynamic.Download attached zip file,extract and then overwrite files to system/etc. Go to settings again and choose standart and then reboot your phone. Please test this and leave feedback.

I went with values halfway between Standard and Dynamic. So only upped sharpness and saturation. Dynamic is just too much but this is a happy medium. My settings don't address black banding. Go with Movie mode settings for that remedy. But even then this app does not adjust gamma so it will only go so far
First off I want to give a HUGE thanks to @supergrobi94 who pretty much did all of the heavy lifting for this project. He designed the apks and flashable zips that we are using and gave us permission to modify them for the Verizon variant. His work can be found here: Thread
I've been working with @kevintm78 to get some modified system apps with custom icons and such. I've spent a lot of time to try and alter the icons and spacing to make sure that it looks the way I want on the note 4.
If we decide to work on other themes we'll be posting them here. I'm hoping to get a dark background version of the settings and some darker notifications, but we'll see how it goes since apparently that's pretty hard.
I've attached a few screenshots below to give a taste of what it looks like and you can download it while we work on other themes. The first two are for this mod.
I've tested it on PaulPizz's CPF3 ROM v3.2 and it works fine, but it is based off of the N910F so there may be some bugs. Make sure to do a backup before flashing and understand that you are flashing this at your own risk. I will try to support it, but honestly I'm a little out of my league here. There is a lot of trial and error with the Samsung apks because they make them proprietary. Anyway, Enjoy!

Themes for ROMs with Theme Store: ThemeStoreThemes
Recently I have been enjoying the FullNote7Build2.1 from @chevyrhoads and have decided to make some themes for it. @Shane_Picardo has uploaded a copy of the ThemeSoftware (it's a version behind, but it works) that I've used to create this theme. I've been looking into changing the status bar icons, but I don't have a lot of hope since the file types for the Note7 port have changed again to some proprietary format that I probably won't be able to decode. I haven't touched the icons since I use Nova Launcher with Icon packs, but I have changed many of the system apps to be a darker theme. I've attached the preview images so you can see if you like it (the ones that start with theme). There is a limit to what the theme editor can do, but if there are requests let me know. I'm more interested in AOSP-like themes, but if another idea interests me I'll look into it.
Theme Store Instructions:
1) Download the appropriate apk (Note 7 ports have a different apk than Note 5 or S6/S7 ports)
2) Install apk, but do not apply
3) Navigate to /data/overlays/jsonfiles/trialjson and cut the file with the name of the theme you just installed
4) Paste the file in /data/overlays/jsonfiles/userjson
5) Navigate back to /data/overlays and delete the preferences folder
6) Reboot and apply the theme
7) Enjoy!

I don't currently know of a way to conditionally remove the icon. I'll look into it though. I actually prefer it there so I know what connection I have for mms and the like.

One thing that I could do is have an upside down signal bar that would change based on your signal (1x=1 bar, 2g=2 bars, 3g=3 bars, 4g=4 bars) right above the cell signal bar so it doesn't take any extra space, but I'd have to remove the up/down data arrows for mobile data. Thoughts?
Also, are there other icons that people want up in the status bar? I can change bluetooth, NFC, alarm clock, and other icons if someone has better suggestions.
Thanks!
Hello @shadeau I was wondering if you could make a complete transparent theme with the wallpaper in your screenshots. One that would make the dialer, settings and messages transparent with the homescreen wallpaper as background in everything? That would be awesome. Also with dark blue fonts. If that is asking too much I completely understand, as I really don't know myself how much time and effort has to go into this. I tried installing the Samsung Theme editor myself with my internet turned completely off before opening it but I still couldn't get it to work. Thanks for your time.

Okay, so the theme editor won't actually let me specify a transparent background unless it's an image file. Even if I specify a completely transparent image file as a background it just means that you see through to the very back of the app instead of to the background (so you still see black). In short, this won't work as you intended, but if you have a background that you want for every screen I could put that image as the theme background. It might be easier to try to get the program running on your computer though so you can play around with different styles and see for yourself.
If you want help with installing it I can see what I can do to assist. Reply here or PM me if you're interested.

Ok cool. If you could make the background image for every screen that would be good. The darker one from your screen shots would be great. Would that work? Thank you again for your time and doing this.

Okay, so the theme editor won't actually let me specify a transparent background unless it's an image file. Even if I specify a completely transparent image file as a background it just means that you see through to the very back of the app instead of to the background (so you still see black). In short, this won't work as you intended, but if you have a background that you want for every screen I could put that image as the theme background. It might be easier to try to get the program running on your computer though so you can play around with different styles and see for yourself.

Well I just installed the Theme editor again and before opening it I went into windows firewall to block it but I don't see it listed anywhere. I looked for Theme Editor and Samsung Theme editor. Is it listed as a different name? Thanks

You need to manually add it. Open windows firewall, select advanced settings, select inbound rules on the left, select new rule on the right, select program and click next, find the program in the program path selection area, select block the connection and click next, select all of the things listed for when it should apply and click next, name it something like Theme inbound and click finish.
Repeat the process for outbound rules. Hope that helps.

I want to thank you again for your help, but I still can't get the Theme Editor to run on my windows 10 pc even after blocking it in Windows firewall. Don't know what else to try.

I've currently got the theme editor running on two windows 10 computers just fine. Could you be more specific on what is failing when you try to run the program? You might want to download it again too.

I would uninstall the program completely, re-download it, and try installing the newly downloaded file. I didn't get that error with either one of my installs. The firewall fix makes sure it doesn't try to get updates. It might help to disconnect from the internet while you're installing it too just to see if it helps.

Ok. Thank you very much. I'll do that later and let you know how it goes. I really appreciate your help.
Hello all,
I am unable to use custom fonts with my KWGT/Zooper Widgets. In fact, I can't even use the built in fonts that come with both of those apps. They simply show up as the default font.
Example, attachment #1 is how it should look. Attachment #2 is how it does look after choosing.
I haven't had this issue on any other phones, figuring its a Honor/Huawei thing. I'm hoping somebody has a work around for this.
Thanks!
I figured out that it just defaults back to the default font. How do I keep it from doing this with widgets?

yes, you have to keep defaults to have zooper custom fonts
I have it on the default and it's not working.
Even apps like Over won't show the custom fonts.

I switched back to the stock Halo theme and it wouldn't fix the font issue. I had to reset my settings before custom fonts would start working again.

Which settings did u reset?
default works for me , i am pretty dissapointed that i can t use other fonts, I've used product sans till now and it's strange to go back to default
Does somebody know hot to fix this? After Oreo update, I can finally change the font on my Honor 8 even if I'm not using English as system language; but every time I change the system font, the fonts of all my widgets stop working. It's a really strange behavior for a customization app, I'm forced to choose between keeping my widgets and the custom font! How could this be possible? Using these widgets for customization prevents me from doing a 100% customization of the phone!!!

Yup that's a known issue for a very long time now. I'm sorry but there's absolutely nothing you can do about it.

Unfortunately I'm aware of this, I've had a brief conversation with the developer of the app, who had told me that this a bug caused by Huawei this is so annoying!!
