Try this:
1. Uninstall Themer.
2. Delete the /sdcard/mycolorscreen/ folder.
3. Reinstall Themer.

Hello Marco,
The issue is not with themer, its with all the launchers, for some reason EMUI 3.0 doesnt like others to hijack their home screen, there is an option in settings->manage Apps->change default apps to pick Themer as default, but after a few hours it will notify that it crushed and return to Huawei Home. even giving Themer root access is not fixing it, so in the first 3 hours it crushed about 5 times, now after another 10hours it didnt crush yet, i hope it will stay that way

Manual changes flexibility

I just started to use themer beta app since I just came back to android (N5 ) after a hard journey with windows phone
I'd like to make over my homescreen on my old S3 manually; but this app has helped me to makeover my N5 easily and it's awesome!
but, is there any way that we can change the apps launched?
For example for a particular theme, when I click sms it will go to hangout only. Could I replace it with a folder instead?
Sorry for bad english though
should be easy enough,by editing the icon and changing it's hotspot to what you want to load.

Hi @KingOmega,
Try this: Hold down on the homescreen - Themer Settings - App preferences - SMS, then change it accordingly. You can do this with the rest of your shortcuts too.
Hope this helps

[Q] T-Mobile Note 3, no theme updates clock time

Is anyone else having an issue using Themer where NONE of the themes will update the clock on any of the homescreens.
I can tap the time and it will show me the correct time on the clock applet, but if I go back to the homescreen, no updated time. Still says whatever time I restarted my device. Does anyone have a workaround for this?

Hi,
Please try this method, as it should help fix the issue:
1. Uninstall Themer.
2. Delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder (removing the Exported folder within it if you saved any themes).
3. Reinstall Themer.

[Q] Themer - loses themes.

Good Day
Since version 1.64 I have noticed an increase of times where my themes are getting corrupted and I cannot recover what I had.
I have uninstalled , reinstalled Themer a number of times but it keeps happening -
They are not complex themes (5 or so Zooper Widgets, 2-3 Screens) and wondered if anyone else might be experiencing the same type of issues -
I love Themer and all it can do and would like to keep using it
Any thoughts on what I can do to fix this issue would be great
Thanks

Hi,
We're going to need some more info from you here:
1. Which themes are they? (user submitted or from the official gallery)
2. Have you saved these themes and now attempting to reapply them?
3. Did you add any widgets to these themes? If so, were they official Themer widgets?
4. What phone are you using?
Thanks

1. they would be a theme i am creating / have saved in the past.
2. yes- i save the themes and now try to reapply - either it crashes or it looses items off the theme and i have to rebuild the entire thing
3. either a Zooper Widget or Everything widget.
4. Samsung Galaxy 5 - stock
I've lost about 4-5 personal themes now so its a bit of a PITA.
Thanks for the reply.

Have you also tried:
- Uninstalling Themer
- removing the Exported folder (within the /sdcard/MyColorScreen folder) and placing it somewhere else.
- deleting the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder
- reinstalling Themer and placing the Exported folder back into its original place.

Starting with a blank theme?

Hello,
I've been using Zooper/Nova for a while and wanted to try making some themes with Themer. The problem is, how do I even get started? I understand the functionality of it and how you can download themes others have made and tweak/customize those. But, I just want a plan, blank set of screens to start with, like when I start up Nova for the first time. I don't want to have to apply someone else's theme and then delete everything just to start working on my own.
Am I totally missing how to do this? Is there a "blank" theme I can download or config file I can use to start out with?

Hi,
If you don't select a theme in the beginning, we give you a somewhat generic theme to start with. Yes it has icons and widgets, but we recommend once you have removed everything, save/export this blank theme for future use. To do that:
1. Remove all the icons/widgets.
2. Long press on the homescreen - Advanced - More - Export Theme.
3. Your theme will now be found in the My Themes section under Exported.

Very slow font loading

Hello,
I used themer on CM11 for some months but the last month I had an 4.03 which isn't supported.
Yesterday I flashed CM12(android 5.02) and I started to use themer again. The problem is that in this latest version of themer when I try to change a font, the loadind of fonts is very slow and very often crash the app. Sometimes after 3-5 minutes I can see the list and choose a font, but this is very slow and I need to change fonts(to support my language) very often. I tried another app which loads a fonts list and it does it almost immediately, so doesn't seem to be device's or rom's problem.
Is there any faster way to change fonts of a theme? For e.g by editing an xml file or something?

Hi there,
Unfortunately Themer only works well when changing the fonts within Zooper. Everything else could lead to crashes. If you would like to change the fonts (for widgets only), placing new ones inside the /sdcard/ZooperWidget/Fonts folder. If Themer is still crashing we recommend unistalling the app, deleting the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder then resinstalling Themer.
Hope this helps!
Marco
Sorry, I've misleading you. In fact, the problem is when trying to load the font list within Zooper. This is very slow and cause themer crashes, or hot reboot sometimes.

I didn' do anything special, and this happened in all themes with zooper I tried. For e.g I just tried on "Orange Glow" theme.
-open advanced menu
-choose unlock widgets
-tap and hold on a zooper widget
-select configure
-select widget disign(or something, I haven't english UI)
-choose a text element
-select text font element
at this last step I get the "loading" popup dialog for a long time. Sometimes after more than 2 minutes the font list is displayed, but usually themer crashes before that.
This time I tried on a saved version of the above theme and the font list displayed a lot faster. So seems that this happens with fresh downloaded themes, not the saved versions of them. It happens only one time(now) though.
EDIT:
I tested it one more time and it happens again. So the problem exists and with saved version of theme.
EDIT2:
I attached the log when I'm trying to change font(this time the font list appear after 2 minutes).

Hi,
Just to check, what device are you using? Also, what app are you referring to when you say that you tried loading another fonts list.
Thanks!
My device is an old Huawei Ideos X5, but with a custom CM12 rom. The app I used was a module app for xposed with name PerAppFonts. I haven't xposed installed though and I don't use this app/module, just use it to test how quick the font list loaded.
