Themes Store

I'm coming from a Huawei P9 Lite, and I loved about it the many themes there were available for donwloading, but now, in my Honor 8, when I enter to THEMES, it only shows Local Themes, there's not any option to download ...
Is there a problem with my phone, Huawei does not has this option for Honor? Or what?
Thanks already to those who can provide me information or solutions.

You have to have your Huawey account set on the phone (maybe the HiCare as well but I don't remeber).
Than you can download themes from the app called "Themes"

Thanks. I'll try that. But What I noticed is my phone doesn't have Huawei ID pre-installed nor Hicloud and Hicare... Will see if it's possible to install it or not...
Are you able to download themes?

You can apply themes from developers here though. Like MaterialVUI.

Yes I am able to download them:
From the settings you should be able to sign into your Huawei account (there is a menu optoin for that).

That's exactly how it was on my Huawei p9 lite, but can't manage to do it in my Honor 8, last question, what themes app version (or build) do you have? Thanks again.

Can you guys upload the apk. Needed to have this working... Thank you

I have L09 with B120 and the app version is 7.3.20

Have you updated to the latest firmware?
Have you backup, factory reset and restore?

Did you set your phone number? The only difference what I see right now from the screenshots that you have your email adress and I have my phone number (and secondarily my email) paired to my account.

I used my email address, so I don't think it could be that. Maybe if you try and force close the theme app, clear all the data etc.
Go to settings > apps > and select the themes app

I'm having the same problem and i recently discovered that themes store is not available in US versions:

Ok,good news here @danymart94
I finally found a solution
Get this app from play store
It's called EMUI tweaker:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teammt.gmanrainy.emuitweaker
Now, from the list hit Disable online theme, by default it's turned on
Just switch it off by hitting the toggle then head to the Themes app,
Launch it then your themes app will show a disclaimer now hit ok...
Tada ... online themes are just between your hands.

Installing Huawei beta app fails, conflicting with existing package name. B381 FW

Found through the HiCare app that you can sign up for beta by downloading an beta app from huawei website (http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/se/fut/index.html).
APK name fut_2.1.15.apk
Installing it fails with:
"The package conflicts with an existing package by the same name"
The package name is com.huawei.betaclub
Been looking through Settings > Apps but can't find any app with that name.
Any help is appreciated.

Tried it, got the same error on FRD-09

FRD-L19 on B380 (i know outdated, but i am too stupid to upgrade without losing my data)
Does not work!
So which App do I have to uninstall and what does this BETA-App do?

I've already contacted Huawei (Finland) on this matter, and they confirmed that the package seems to be broken/incompatible somehow. They said they'd report this problem to appropriate place.

Reply from huawei support:
"Hello After testing the app out on our phones we have the same result. The app does not work on android 7 as it was made for android 6 to get the beta of android 7. Best regards Huawei support"

I tried it and it installed, but when I try to click agree and login, it says login failed (after having downloaded and logged into the verification app).

Open links from messages in other browsers?

So, anytime someone send me a text with a link, the link opens up in a preview version of Samsung Internet (I force closed apps to figure out what it was). Then if I want to open it in a full browser, I click the three dot menu but im only able to choose Samsung internet. Iv checked webview settings and they are all unchangable. Iv set all defaults I can to chrome. It wont let me change app link settings. I dont know what to do. Iv included pictures to help.

Settings/apps/3 dot menu/ default apps/ Browsers/ Chrome
Edit: just realized my idea didn't work either. It works using Android Messages but not Samsung Messages ?

same thing sprint s8
just got the latest oreo update and the mandatory use of samsung internet in messaging has been applied to my settings too. a few days ago it said chrome was my option to open links, now it's not. can't disable samsung internet or delete it either. would love to know if there's a fix! thanks
edit: i'm glad to know i'm not crazy and this just changed itself on me!

If you install the latest Samsung messages apk. (S9 version) you can set the default browser as I explained above and it will work like a charm ?

Good question! I guess you could drop in on you computer and run a virus scan on the apk. I have been using it for a week. I haven't noticed anything odd. But that don't mean anything. ?

If you have a previous version of the app installed and are trying to install your "latest version" over it, you will need to un-install the previous version first. That "latest version" you are trying to install may be signed to another user if you didn't get it from the Google PlayStore and the app is looking at the previous version as being in conflict with your latest version. Uninstalling the previous version and then installing your latest version should be successful.

Instructions:
SD card method
Download the necessary update.zip(s) for your device according to your current software version.
Step 1
Copy the update.zip file to your SD card.
Step 2
Reboot the device into Recovery mode. (Turn off the phone, then Vol Up + Bixby + Power button)
Step 3
Go to apply update from SD card.
Step 4
Install the update, and be patient.
Many people have reported, that on ZRKA, they're unable to apply new updates from SD because of SD card mounting errors.
First try formatting your card on your phone, and try again. If that fails, use adb sideloading.
Edit: The most effective way I came across for this issue is to actually use a PC (or a phone utility) to format the SD Card with FAT32, then try the update.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
ADB Sideloading
Download the necessary update.zip(s) for your device according to your current software version.
Step 1
Download the latest ADB ZIP file (Windows), then extract it to C:\adb
Step 2
Download and install adb drivers.
Step 3
Copy the update.zip file to C:\adb (or wherever your adb.exe file is)
Step 4
Put your phone in recovery mode and select Apply update from ADB, then connect it to your PC
Step 5
Wait until your PC installs the drivers, if you're doing this for the first time.
Step 6
Open command prompt, navigate to C:\adb (or wherever your adb.exe and update.zip is)
Step 7
Issue the following command: adb devices
If you can see a device in 'sideload' mode, you can proceed to step 8, otherwise you may have some troubleshooting to do.
Step 8
Issue the following command: adb sideload update.zip
Step 9
Be patient, and enjoy your update.

Click to collapse
NOTE: You can't go directly from BRJ6 to the latest update, you have to start with ZRKA and apply them one by one.
IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED TO PERFORM A FACTORY RESET IF YOU'RE UPDATING FROM BRJ6. Otherwise its not necessary, but for
the most optimal experience, it is advised.

Not live yet in US

Looks like just South Korea so far. Any outside of South Korea have any luck? I'm gonna be F5'ing all day until it goes live for USA lol

With the new Samsung+ UI I can't imagine where they'll dump the banner about the Beta to sign up, I have to check in all tabs!

2 people from Germany wrote to me that they also have silence ...

Hello,
I have a newbie question - once beta will be out for Germany will I be able to flash it without any side effects (locking to german firmware, tripping knox). I somehow expect that I will have to do factory reset of my phone.
Thanks!

No need to flash anything, once you sign up for the beta you'll receive the beta via OTA within a few minutes of sign up

I think we, outside of South Korea should stop buying Samsung devices. First of all, they are late in the Game and second why would they always prioritized their homeland :/. Please do not get me wrong I'm not trying to spread some hate but Samsung is really really bad at Software delivery and that is not just in their Mobile department, unfortunately.

Yeah, but I am not from US/German or UK.

I don't agree with you . You have to realize this is Beta. They are trying to focus on limited number of countries before global rollout. I think that their homeland is best for this because it is easier to support for them.

I have been a beta tester since the Note 3. If I remember correctly, the Beta update the last couple of times hit in the evening in the US. Granted, that doesn't I won't keep checking every couple of minutes. Anyway, currently it is 10:30 PM South Korean time. This could be a long 12 hours......

Galaxy S9/S9+ One UI beta program kicks off
You can register for the beta in the Samsung Members app (Samsung+ for folks in the US). Just open the app, tap the Notices button, and you should see an option about enrolling into the beta program. Once enrolled, you will be able to download the Android Pie beta build from the Settings » Software update menu by tapping Download updates manually. You will need a Samsung account to do this, as expected.
Don’t fret if you don’t see a notice about the program in Samsung Members just yet. It may take some time to become active for everyone, although you’d want to be as quick as possible with registering as there are going to be limited slots. It’s also a good idea to back your data up through Samsung Smart Switch before installing the beta.

Is this shi* post? Or just low effort one? Maybe you could check spellings next time , it takes less than a min.

Does anyone know if the beta program supports the U1 models or is it only for the U version??

True. Assuming you have a browser and/or add-in that supports spell checking. I don't think the XDA Labs client has spell checking on it either. Additionally, English may not be the users primary language. Point is we understood what was being communicated. No need to be rude. They were trying to convey a message.
Regardless, this is article: https://www.sammobile.com/2018/11/15/galaxy-s9-android-pie-one-ui-beta-program-live/ and it appears it was copied.
