Hello! I keep having this issue, as you can see, there are no icons on screen, except for the widgets. It only happens when i choose the App Drawer option, everything is normal when i use the Standard mode.
I already tried a factory reset, and extracting the Huawei Home apk from other Mate 9, installing it but nothing happened. Can anybody please help me? I haven't even unlocked the bootloader. It Is as stock as i bought it.

Hello
I bought my wife a Note 10.1 yesterday and when we had set-up her Google account we were greeted with a home screen like the one attached, having cleaned it up a little.
The problem initially appeared to be a form of a weather widget but it is persistent across all the screens, like the Google search bar or the App Drawer icon.
I noticed that the tablet came with ICS so I updated it to JB and it did that fine with no issues. However the weather "widget" (you can't actually select or remove it) remains there stuck on the screen.
I spoke to Samsung and they remotely connected to my tablet but did not know how to resolve the issue.
I then installed Nova Launcher to test if it would then go and it did. But we would prefer, at this stage, to use the default Touchwiz launcher, minus the issue, if possible.
Whilst the Nova launcher was running I cleared the data from the Touchwiz application and then used that as the default launcher. It then placed all the default widgets back to the home screen, as it would when first used, but that weather "thing" still remains.
I can't see any weather or Accu weather type instances running so has anyone got any ideas please how to restore the Touchwiz type launcher to look as it should and not have that persistent non selectable weather thing on the desktop...?
Have you tried a factory reset?

Thanks for that
As I was not rooted. and thus could not access any system apps - in case I could have replaced the touchwiz app etc, I felt that I had little choice but to reset the tablet.
That worked...!!!!!
The good thing being is tha twe had not spent too long in building it up.!
Hi, I have recently updated my samsung galaxy s6 to android 5.1.1, since updating, my launcher, apex pro isn't showing the icons within a folder on my home screen any more, its basically a folder that contained all my game apps.
I assume the issue was apex in someway maybe not being fully compataible with 5.1.1 but im not sure?
Th odd thing is, when i open tap the game folder, even though its all blank with no icons, they do seem to be there, but just invisible, if i tap where i know apps used to be in the folder, they do actually stop open, which is odd.
I have tried deleting the folder then doing a restore in apex but the same thing happens.
Also since updating to 5.1.1 some screens have also been a little laggy and my home screen was just black at one point and just showing the notification section / time but everything else was black and wouldn't go off, i had to restart phone to get it back to normal.
Can anyone offer any help?
Thanks

same on mine. I just let it be.. and now it does not have any lag. it fixed itself.
Hmmm...maybe Apex Launcher is not yet fully compatible with Android 5.1.1.
For the past couple of weeks everytime I download an app it doesn't show up in the launcher or home screen. I've able to launch the app form the play store and by BIxby. I can also search the app launcher and it pops up, but the icon its self wont show up. Can anyone please help me. I already deleted the data in the app information on Touchwiz home and restarted my phone. Factory resetting my phone is not an option because I'm enrolled in the Samsung Insights program which grays out the option to factory reset the phone. Any help would be appreciated.
Well, without a factory reset, I'm not sure. Can you contact the Insights Team and explain it to them? Maybe they can help you or tell you how to factory reset it.
Why don't you use a 3rd-party launcher until somebody figures this out?

Which apps ? can you name those ?
Hello guys,
I just got my View 10 today and it is a great phone, I love it. But, themes I download from the themes app or hwt files from XDA and placed in Huawei>Themes will only show up in the Themes app, but won't apply. When I click apply the phone loads for a fraction of a second and then goes to the home screen, not changing anything. I can apply the wallpaper from the customize section, but that's it. No icon changed, the UI is the same. Can anyone shed a light on my mysterious problem?
Try factory reset once
Hi there always factory reset a phone so that it work well and do remeber to update the firmware and again factory reset it. Then try applying the theme. As far as i know there is no problem in 140 latest firmware... Try it and let me know.
Via ADB, I uninstalled some of the bloatware (only the recommended/safe apps) from my brand new Poco X3 NFC. Now the lock-screen wallpaper stays the same, no matter which one I choose. (I already rebooted and shut down the device a couple of times, though.)
I can change the home screen wallpaper normally (using the Wallpaper icon at the bottom left, which appears after tap&hold on home screen), but if I choose to apply the change to both home&lock screens or to lock-screen only, nothing changes.
One interesting thing is that tapping on "Wallpapers" in Settings doesn't do anything anymore.
Any idea about what could have gone wrong?
Did you solve this? the problem is definitely with removing some Xiaomie app, but which one and how can we get it back?

I had this a few year ago when I changed the launcher. MIUI wouldn't allow me to change the lock screen wallpaper when I used Nova Launcher
I guess it was Nova Launcher then, I think I was experimenting with it as well. But I don't have this phone anymore, though.
I too had the same situation until I reinstall the com.miui.miwallpaper package.
PS: The apk from the sites were not working for me so I got it via my friend who has a Redmi Note 10 Pro.
