When trying to log in to the Theme app, I'm unable to login (screenshot below). I am logged in to the Huawei ID successfully on the device, but the Themes app doesn't seem to see that?

Same happened to me,
I downloaded a Huawei app gallery, which as I installed auto adds Huawei mobile service. Then register your device region to Ireland in the app when prompted, let everything update, restart. Open Huawei themes app and it will switch it to Ireland (it will prompt)... Now sign in and you will see themes, paid and free to download. Just type FREE in search to find free ones. I am on the Huawei Mate SE Emui 8 if that helps.

This may be covered in another thread, but i just received this from google support regarding my continued ***** about not being able to delete unused, uninstalled, non working apps listed on the play store granted.. they still show up on the web but now its not on my GSIII any longer.. Thank god... it took google too long to address this issue: :good:
Thank you for contacting Google. At this time, there is no way to delete records of old apps from the Google Play website (play.google.com).
However, if you're running the latest version (3.9+) of the Google Play Store app on your device (to find out the version you're running, launch Google Play, then tap Settings > Build version), you have the ability to remove apps from your My Apps list. At this time, the latest version of the Google Play Store app is slowly being released to devices around the world.
To do so, open the Google Play Store app > My Apps > All, tap the gray circle on the app you want to remove, then tap OK to confirm. You can select multiple apps to remove from the list by long-pressing an app, then tapping more apps in the list.
Note that you will only see the gray circle for apps that are not installed on that device. Removing an app from your My Apps list will uninstall the app from any other devices associated with your account. To get an app back that you've removed from your My Apps list, you must re-download the item from Google Play. If you remove a purchased app, there's no need to re-purchase that app - simply visit the app's details page on Google Play and re-install it.
If you're still running a version of the Google Play Store app below 3.9, you will not be able to remove apps from your My Apps list.
Regards,
Danielle
The Google Play Support Team.
I wish every time you deleted an app the list didn't refresh all the way to the top.. Also after rom installs do they come back and show again?

No they do not. They are also removed from the PC version when you log on from there. It makes it so much easier to try and an app and then delete it for good out of your list.
Nice to be able to finally batch delete...now if only we could batch install...

Well..you can now...the downside? Batch remove isn't available anymore.
The list doesnt refresh anymore thank god. It was so irritating when each time you erase the app from the list you have to scroll again to the point where you stopped before removing the app from the list. And I just got to know that you can actually select multiple apps from that list and install them at once instead of going to each app and pressing intall. COOL!!!
Have some queries on multiple apps & would appreciate your inputs guys (M Dual) :
1) The pre-installed application 'appXtra shows 'This service is not available for your location' (For India) - don't understand why it would be preinstalled in Indian model if service is unavailable for India.
2) Bigflix - I needed to know before registering, is there any specific offer from Sony (like how Nokia offers for their handsets as a bundle) if we register from within the phone app.
3) Haven't yet activated McAfee Security - Is this Antivirus & Security as there seems to be no standalone McAfee Security app on Play. Also is this trial version or full featured premium version offered to Xperia buyers?
4) Sony Music (powered by Infibeam), have not yet registered and once again same question for this as well, is there any specific offer from Sony (like how Nokia offers for their handsets as a bundle) if we register from within the phone app.
5) Xperia Link when opened says 'Start the Xperia Link application on your PC', where do we download this from as searched everywhere & did not find it
6) The app 'Bump' simply force closes at each and every instance when trying to run it - anyone else facing this issue?

Appreciate your help but what you are mentioning is for Myxperia which I am aware of but my question is for Xperia Link app as found in the app drawer. Looking forward to some inputs on the other points from anyone who can chime in.
¡¡IMPORTANT!! -I'm not the developer of this app, or affiliated with the devs. Just want to share my experience
Hi everyone,
One of my biggest problem with the fire tv stick was to find the apks of the android tv version of an app, which usually isn't the same apk that you have installed on your phone (and are impossible to find ). I found this app called YalpStore that basically lets you download apps from the play store as an android tv device and doesn't require Google play services.
How to use:
-Download the app from xda labs and sideload it on your fire tv
-Open the app, click on the menu button on your remote and select "search"
-if asked, select "log in without google account"(experimental)
-to navigate inside the app, you may need the "mouse toggle" app to emulate a mouse pointer (or a Bluetooth mouse)
Install the apps and enjoy
Link from xda labs:
https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.github.yeriomin.yalpstore
Hope it is useful
I just found this app too. Using my google account I was able to download apps that I have paid for and directly load the and install the app. There is a tutorial https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidGaming/comments/7il7qx/tutorial_how_to_download_any_android_tv_game/ You can download the Yalp app https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.github.yeriomin.yalpstorehttp://
I don't believe you need to be rooted to use this Yalp.
Within Yalp are some options to blacklist andn whitelest apps but I have not experimented to see if that has any validity on my Firstick 1, x5.2.6.0, rooted.
nice
Search bug in android kitkat
Hi, thanks for this so useful app,
But the search return always nothing,
Although the apps appears in the categories menu, but the search doesn't work at all...
Perhaps only on kitkat ? I have a Samung S4 android kitkat
Hope you will fix it soon :good:

Seems like developer just abandoned this project. And based on commit history He's missing himself since October 2018.
I'd recommend Yalp's fork - AuroraStore. Though didn't use it myself, it's at least have active commits...

Received my M5 8.4 yesterday and am loving the hardware. Not keen on the default EMUI theme, so popped into the "Themes" app to change it. All I see are the half dozen or so "local" themes. A quick Google shows that the phone version of the "Themes" app includes a marketplace, that seems to be missing from my M5 tablet version.
True of others with the M5? Is it an app thing, or a regional thing, or the fact that they've yet to create any tablet specific themes for download?
Local themes here too.

You can load any themes from other emui based devices, just copy the .hwt file to the Huawei/Themes directory, and it shows up in the themes app as the local themes do.
Plenty of themes in the Mate 9/Mate 10 forums, as well as the Huawei themes website.
https://emui.huawei.com/en/hwtheme
I modified a theme to suit my own needs... (Black settings, Calendar etc)
You can also load fonts the same way.
I will share any themes I end up making, when they are completed.

Yes it disappeared when Emui 9 was launched, quite stunned they could just remove it and not give a link or info as to where they can be found now, If anyone finds out let us know.

If you open the most up to date version of the themes app, under settings somewhere you can change locale to other countries - when you do that the themes start appearing in vast quantities depending on the setting. Both paid and free themes and wallpapers. Seems the UK locale has nothing associated with it though.

What version of the app are you using?
I cannot see any 'settings' option in the themes app, my version is 8.0.0.353
I've got 9.0.4.302. At the bottom of the app, you have a "me" button, then scroll down to get the location option.
App was updated from within itself, possibly after a firmware update.
Can someone please create a Black Theme?
If i use a Black Theme for phone on the Tablet there will be a ugly white beezel in the settings
It might depend on where you live. I'm in the US and on my last 3 Huawei phones including this one there was no marketplace in the theme app and no option to change the region within the theme app or any other Huawei stock app. Huawei Cloud and Huawei's app store also haven't worked on any of these phones and there is no way to change the region for either of them either.

I was able to access the location setting in the theme app using QuickShortcut Maker which I was using for something else--somebody suggested that turning off WiFi Calling which was enabled but with the setting hidden might fix the problem some of us on T-Mobile in the US are having not receiving calls or texts.
I remember seeing this setting before in the theme app, possibly on my P20 Pro but it doesn't actually let me change the region to anything other than United States. I think the region locks during phone set-up for people in the USA because I haven't been able to change the region in any Huawei system apps on my last 3 Huawei phones. Doing that might work in Europe because of rules in the European Union.
hi guys
I got my phone yesterday from giztop.com
apparently its the Chinese version
when I download the GMS core app from various links on google , during the initial run it tells me some google services need to be uninstalled specifically GOOGLE PLAY SERVICE UPDATER but it cannot be uninstalled no matter how many times the pop up tries to uninstall it
even from apps manager from setting I can stop it from running but am unable to uninstall it
can any one who has faced this issue help me out ?
thanks
Google play store was not visible on my AL00 at first. I went to app gallery and it had an option to update it.(not recommended ) it said. After I updated it showed up on the phone.
Just update it on the app gallery all Google stuff are built in you only have to download google calendar sync

I had faced the same problem
I had the same problem in my Huawei Mate 20 Chinese Phone. Solved it by changing the language to Chinese through App Gallery and thereafter searching for and installing Google Play. It really worked fine.

How were you able to do the search in the App Gallery if the language was Chinese?
mate 20x 8gb, 256gb evr-l00
I have the evr-l00...
followed this instruction, changed the app gallery to china (region), even if the whole thing is in chinese, type in "Google Play" in the search box on the top of the page, hit enter, and there came Google Play Store.
Installed it... removed most of the chinese apps, installed all useful google apps, and that's it, viola!
still working perfectly up to now.
my only gripe with the chinese version (when used elsewhere, except china)... is that u will not be able to fully configure the mobile data limits as the 'region' and 'network providers' are all in chinese, for China-based networks.
