Hi all,
First of all, sorry if this is the wrong forum, I didn't know where else to put it. I recently got MIUI v3 on my Galaxy GT-I9505, and have been using the theme editor to change the icons for some applications. When I transform the icons, I click the 'complete apply' option which pushes it to my phone and the icons are changed. However, after about 10 minutes or so, the icons revert back to how they were, along with the wallpaper for some reason. I also tried saving it as .mtz, but when I tried applying it, it stated that I need authorization and to only download from the official market.
I am unsure on what to do, I've looked up on many guides/forums and havent been able to find a solution. If anyone could help that'd be great
Maybe the problem is with the theme changer.. Download any launcher and use themes on launcher best way.

Hi every one I've been trying to find themes for my G fit that don't need a launcher app, but I couldn't find any, so I was wondering do I have to install a launcher app to install themes?? I also want to design my own themes.
PS: my phone isn't rooted, nor have I changed anything in it since I bought it in 2012, I have tried rooting it, but I failed.
Is there any possible way to install touchwiz launcher on Moto E2 without root or installing custom rom.
Any working flashable zip is available ?
Also provide instructions for installation of the same.

It would be best if it is without root. But if its there with root it will also work.
I tried S Launcher and some launchers from the play store but it does not give me tge same samsung interface.
Also provide method to install as well as uninstall the same.
Thanks in advance.

If your going for root and have a custom ROM installed them you can just download a theme from play store that will help you
But if you wanna so it on stock then there's no other option to do it without launcher
Also I would prefer root because theme will give you a better interface everywhere not only in app drawer but also in settings,notification drawer etc !!

Ok no problem. Provide me the instructions for installation with root.
Can it be done just by rooting the device without installing a custom rom. It would be delightful if that is possible.
Just like we flash a zip file for some apps to be installed.

To root your device you can refer to another thread on XDA
Custom ROM is necessary for theme effect !!

I don't really understand what you mean by that. Firstly be sure whether you wanna root you device or not . It's a risky job indeed to root the device . make sure you refer to the thread properly and have all the requirements. If you don't want all this stuff to be done then enjoy the launcher effects.

1. I want to root the device (Only if it is required).
2. I want to install the custom rom (Only if it is required).
3. I want the complete galaxy transformation pack (My phone should look completely like samsung).
4. I want the instructions to install all this.
5. I also want instructions to uninstall all this in case if I want to bring back the stock default system.

Thank you for your reply. This is similar to what I want.
I want to use whole samsung interface on my moto E2
(Samsung default messaging app, phone dialer etc etc , everything samsung)
The launcher which you have given works good and also provides the look which I want but I also want all the apps from samsung devices.

I've tried this as on my moto e but not with a Samsung interface, i tried this with the HTC sense 7 interface, by Xpirit here on XDA, but this made my moto e slow and laggy.
I also tried a windows phone interface with windows apps, I didn't like it.
Samsung's touchwiz is renowned for being laggy and slow on Samsung devices, why you want need this on a moto E is beyond me, but that's your choice!
What a full touchwiz port would run like on a moto e 2015 I can't say, because I don't know!
Just a small word of caution.........
I find that unless you flash a "themed" custom ROM, you won't get the "full" other manufacturer effect you desire, some element will still be stock android or "basic"
I haven't found any good themed custom ROMs for the moto e 2015, I'm not saying there isn't any, I just haven't found them.
But what I have found is placing different launchers, themes, overlays and xposed mods slow my moto e down to a crawl, performance is drastically affected.
Please consider this before you go ahead (you don't have to take my advise, any modification you choose to make is up to you)
Good luck

I have an idea but not sure about its success. You could go to any Samsung galaxy 4, 5 or 6 XDA and download its Deodexed Stock ROM
After doing that, try extracting the system.img and from the system image, you will get an app folder which will have the system apps. Choose what you like and copy those to your phone. As I said, I'm not sure whether this works.:laugh::laugh:
P.S : And yeah, just like @ivan39 said, y do you need a touchwiz background!! I mean, I owned a Samsung. It was a nightmare. I didn't even keep it for 6 months. Exchanged it for a moto e2. Just y?

I had several Samsung's, last one I had was an s9000i or s1 someone gave to me, it was the easiest to root/flash ROMs/make mods for, but it was the slowest and had the most pathetic performance of any any smartphone I've owned.
I'll personally never have another Samsung, I now only buy phones that are stock or pure android, I find them much better without all that bloat!
I did notice a lot of those horrible cheap Chinese handsets available have a touch wiz like interface, maybe you could find a port of that?
Edit
A discussion/disagreement at work today regarding theming ect......
Someone happened to notice my own moto e homescreen looks like the nexus 5x.
I only use the "beach drone" nexus 5x wallpaper, and I use Nova launcher with its standard marshmallow icons, but that's where the similarities with the Nexus ends.
I use the CLock weather/clock widget with google now weather icons that the nexus doesn't, and I also use a different google search widget on my home screen to the nexus.
The gentleman who took me to task over "copying" the nexus home screen could not grasp the fact android is so customisable, and as he had his own moto e 2015 with the standard launcher, the yellow disk wallpaper, he didn't see the point to change it.
His argument was I have a ford focus C max as my car, but its not badged as a Bugatti or a Porsche.....
So if a Motorola looks like something else, it is something else and I'm messing around with stuff I "know nothing about"
I explained about theming/launchers/XDA/mycolourscreen/themer and icon packs but I'm afraid it fell on deaf ears and this man was quite upset I had changed my handset so Much from standard.
Point I want to make is we all make our devices what we want, that's the beauty of android.
If you want a Samsung theme, good. If I want to try out HTC sence 7 (that I love but its laggy on my moto e) then that's great.
Its all about individuality and we mustn't let others tell us different!
If you want samsung why not just buy it?

Hi guys, I got Android 10 update waiting for install. One thing I'd like to ask from you that have stable Android 10 installed is;
Can you apply Substratum themes for this phone running Q?
I got custom themes through Synergy at the moment (Android 9), but will it still work after update is or themeing this way impossible with new update?
Thank you
Have hade Android 10 on my phone for a while. I'm not sure if Substratum themes can be applied any way or not, but some kind themeing is possible with Hex Installer.
