Question Themes don't work on Z Fold 3 - Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3

I am having an issue where if I go to the Samsung store I cannot click on any of the themes and install them. Is anyone else having this issue? There is an app called hex which allows you to customize Samsung themes and it doesn't work and I believe this is the reason why.

No issue.All purchased themes from galaxy playstore can be easily installed.

I cannot click on any of these themes or wallpapers. It does nothing

For 10 minutes and then it went away lol

Looks like you installed a trial theme so you need to buy it to keep using it.

looks like we're just going to have to wait til Hex_ update their app.

My themes work.

Hex is definitely Fd on the fold3. Hopefully they update it.

i hope they get Hex_ fixed! for now, i'm using Samsung's Theme Park App to get me close to what i had in #Hex_.

Thanks for the info. I'm not finding Samsung Theme Park in the playstore. Where did you find it?
NVM found it in the Samsung store

Reading this thread, permit ask a question regarding a possible related issue.
I have tried to install various Live Wallpapers from the Playstore. On the Fold 3, after reboot, I loose the Live Wallpapers, and I have to re-enable it every reboot. On the Fold 2, it survived reboot.
I am wondering if Galaxy themes is causing it. Can I idsable Galaxy Themes? In Settings ==> Apps the Disable button is grayed out. Is there a way to disable Galaxy themes?
Thank you!

With my live wallpaper app i put it under never sleep mode in battery advanced settings and it worked well

The theme reverts back to the stock theme after 10 minutes. Gah. Hopefully they fix it soon. Can't stand OneUI's default theme and statusbar.

Transparent MMS

Here is a transparent MMS working for the Nexus! Delete the original MMS and install this in its place through something like drop box as you would any other apk. This is the original work of Dhacker so the main credit goes to him, I just themed it a little more. Let me know if you would like it themed with a personal touch of your own? Enjoy!
No one seems to like this App?

Mine shows only phone numbers, no names. FC's when I open settings.
Yes, download the apk tool and decompile it then change any setting you want,,,just be careful some changes to .png's or xml's do not go so well so it may take a few tries to get everything to work.

Substratum support for Android 8.0 Oreo, in the form of the newly released Andromeda

Yeah but Andromeda is an add-on to make substratum work. I have to stay plugged into my comp for it to work though. Once I set theme I'm good to go though.

Well I guess having to plug in to set the theme isnt so bad...
I ran into this problem yesterday and all I did was just ran the Andromeda script two times in a row and waited about 10 seconds and it was fine. Both Substratum and Andromeda have been updated since then so it may have just been a bug. The substratum app works great although there are some themes that apparently still require root to use (status bar changes like moving the clock to center). Over all im very happy with the results. Using Sai's Oreo black/teal theme and love it. Big thanks to those who made this possible
Yeah, it's still on the XDA Portal front page.
Is this just for unrooted? Substratum works fine rooted

yeah, this is for unrooted devices.
Yeah been using it since release, works like a dream for me. Don't have to stay plugged in myself either, only a reboot requires a re-run of the andromeda desktop client.
I started using it today but having the same issue with it only working while plugged to the PC. I tried it at least 5-6 times and ran it back to back, still goes to not authorized once I unplugged. But I like the theme so far and everything seems ok for now after I rebooted.

I've been trying it out.
Which black theme hasn't the fewest unintended UI issues? Black themes are nice, but it bugs me when I get white on white text, or my Keep note colors are messed up. I haven't yet tried Swift Black as everyone seems to love it, but I want one that just works. I don't have a ton of time for experimentation.
I'm also not interested in changing the look too much outside of coloring, like Substratum DAN does with all it's fonts and ugly (imo) color themes.
Swift black is the best black theme I found so far. Pitch black seems to be actively worked on but Google now home had black on black issue. Only issue with Swift black was inbox shows a white background once opening an email but it might not be the app's fault.

That's themed using Compound theme in the Play Store from Daniel Schott.
Do they have it working for Chromebooks? Where I can plug my Pixel XL to my Chromebook?

I went ahead and bit the bullet on Swift Black, and it's fantastic. Worth every penny. Really well thought out and few text coloration bugs

How to disable trial on Samsung Theme Store

When you edit a samsung theme from Theme Store, and want to apply it, Samsung detects it as a paid theme. So Even if you edit a free theme, you still have this “trial” button. So to disable the trial,
Go to /data/overlays/jsonfiles/trialjson and all the files move to /data/overlays/jsonfiles/userjson
Thanks man. Im gonna try this right now if it really do trick

Remove Battery Icon

Wondering if anyone knows how to remove the battery icon? I'd like to just have the percentage show up. Thanks in advance for any advice on this!
Try Good Lock from the Samsung App Store. It includes lots of status bar tweaks.

I have it set to show the percentage but it isn't there. When I toggle the battery icon in Good Lock, they both disappear.
Just use Systemui Tuner.

I think you are doing something wrong
I got it to work, I guess I needed to toggle battery percentage off then on. Working perfectly now. Thanks for the suggestion on this!
i just downloaded this app but i don't see the options to do what you guys have done. can you give more explicit instructions? I see a list of apps you can install from the app store (lock star, quick star, multi star, etc...)

Launch Quick-panel star---> visibility of indicator icons--->toggle battery icon. Haha, hopefully you got it.
The app is called Good Lock. The PapaWangsta's instructions should get you taken care of once you download it.

thanks for the intel on this app. but where in settings does one turn on the percentage? im on an unlocked note plus if that matters...
I'm on a note 8 until later today. The attached print screen shows where it's at on the note 8. You should be able to search "hide battery percentage" to find it.
Wow, what an idiot I am ! damn I’m sorry to have wasted internet bandwidth on such a daft question. I cant believe how I missed that in settings.....

I doggedly go through settings to find buried stuff like this. Goodlock apps are superb; even got rid of that nasty AT&T logo.
Just black across the top of my stock Note 10 homescreen like I want it.

All of them, they work only for first animation cycle (for about 20seconds) then the animation stops.

I tested it on galaxy A50 with lawnchair V2 launcher just now.
It's working perfectly fine.
The wallpaper is supposed animate every time you unlock your phone & then remain static.
Just like LG and Samsung flagship devices.
This preserves battery and doesn't impact performance.
Budget devices can't handle animations after every touch, it slows them down.
And above that, OnePlus has their own wallpaper engine to run the animations smoothly.
So there you go, Cheers !
