Themer after updating to lollipop - Themer General Discussion

I've been using themer with 4.4 with usual bugs nothing big but since I've updated to lollipop I'm having couple of issues, I'm looking for solutions but couldn't find anything. Maybe it's just me.
1. Notification access - every time I reboot my phone I have to give themer notification access. It resets itself after reboot.
2. Gesture controls for notification panel. I'm using themer on note 4. It's big so I always use the swipe down feature to expand notification. It just doesn't work in lollipop. I tried expanding notification with double tab. Didn't work. Although other settings with gesture control works like themer menu.
Any solution?
Thanks.
Regards

Themer seems to be pretty buggy especially for Lollipop. I don't have any themes etc. which is sad. I might switching to Nova Launcher again.

I updated my verizon lg g3 to lollipop this last weekend, specifically the Jasmine 7. 0 build. Haven't had a single problem with themer or any of these situations on mine.

[Q] All widgets disappear after every phone reboot

Hi All,
I am a new user of Themer and I am really blown away by the level of customisation that this app offers.
However I noticed a problem on my Nexus 5. I applied a new theme and added some customised widgets (twitter feed etc) and locked my widgets, my widgets will all disappear (both the ones the were default from the theme and the ones I added on). Only shortcuts or icons will remain. I also notice that they will prompt for me to give all access for themer to access widgets information despite it was already given multiple times.
The problem will not appear if I did not add any other widgets and only apply the theme direct. Was wondering if anyone else is bugged by the same problem?
I have the exact same problem on my nexus 4 since one the last themer update.
Same here.

We are aware of this issue and it's currently being addressed. We apologize for the inconvenience.

my best guess would be something to do with the cache and/or dalvik...
It's not with dalvik/cache. On previous threads they said it's a Themer problem. Just save your theme and after the restart apply it again.
yes it happens here too i hope it will be fixed soon.

Was about to try this app out now i'm hesitant, lol. I see one of the devs posted here already, though, so that is promising....subscribing^^

Yep, very beta. Over a year later the problem still exists. I know the workaround with saving the theme but as soon as I change a little bit on the home screen and I forget saving the theme again, all the widgets are gone by the next restart (every now and then they just forget their configuration)
I love the app, but this is the only problem I cant solve.
Hi,
I have this exact problem after updating my XtreStoLite 2.4 ROM to Marshmallow. Have the latest Themer version. how to resolve?

If you're ever like me, and simply can't decide between touchwiz and aosp roms for the last 2 years.. and it's been driving you crazy to the point that you don't know what ROM to run..so crazy that you want to either throw your phone against a wall or punt it like a football....I may have the solution for you. I'm no Dr. Phil but TrentsKKRom™ CAN satisfy & fix that. Your thirst for both TW & AOSP has finally arrived..
TrentsKKRom™ is a TRUE AOSP Experience on Touchwiz so If you are a fan of AOSP but want to retain touchwiz functions, this is for you.
If you are living and can read this, this is for you.

1st - If you do not get WiFi & haven't flashed the Mj9 parameters yet, Install The 4.3 MJ9 Firmware File via Odin If You Have Not Done So Already.
2nd - HIGHLY suggest wiping System, Data, Cache, Dalvik-Cache, & Internal Memory.
3rd - If you are having SD Card writing issues, Download FolderMount from playstore. It will fix all those issues due to the new KitKat.
4th - HIGHLY recommend Agni Kernel as well.

AOSP themed SystemUI (Touchwiz Toggles....Breaks some of TrentsSettings Customization)
http://d-h.st/r7G
Touchwiz Dialer & Contacts (Not themed but feel free to theme for all of us to use)
http://d-h.st/30B
Inverted Apps (To be updated more later)
http://d-h.st/DaA
Touchwiz Lockscreen
http://d-h.st/XWw
Q: What is the best recovery to use to flash this?
A: I didn't have much luck using the latest TWRP before 2.8.0.0. Phils has worked great, but TWRP 2.8.0.0 may work just as well.
Q: I can't get MMS to send? Any solution?
A: Input your phone number into the messaging app to send MMS that way. You may have to use one of the known MMS fix methods (apn-conf) if you use another SMS app to send MMS. I honestly do not have a fix for that as it is possible something removed or merged could have messed that up. I noticed under about device, your phone number can say "Unknown". Have no idea why that is.
Q: There isn't a CSC.apk in the rom? Isn't that needed?
A: Yes and no. The missing apk is HERE. Feel free to add it under /system/priv-app. You will get a "com.android.phone has stopped" message TWICE after every reboot and then the problem will never come back until the next reboot. I could not get down to this issue so hopefully someone more skilled than me at reading a logcat and providing a fix can help out. I removed it and it doesn't seem to hurt or break anything else about the ROM.
From past research, it is needed to boot the rom & for APN editing but it doesn't seem to really be affected by not including it so far.
Q: How can I remove the "0" from the time?
A: Again, I will keep figuring that out. If it is that annoying, I guess you could try the Xposed Module "XuiMod".
Q: How can I get Inverted Contacts? Or vice versa?
A: There is an extra contacts app under /system/priv-app called "Contacts1.apk". Rename Contacts.apk to Contacts.apk1 or whatever and rename "Contacts1.apk" to Contacts.apk and Hot reboot. You will have 2 apps under the system.
Q: How can I hide one of the dialers?
A: Go into application manager and either "turn off" the dialer or google dialer. Simple as that.
Q: How can I change lockscreen wallpaper?
A: I haven't gotten around to finding a way except for using GravityBox. Works great for lockscreen and quick tiles.
Q: Why do I get a Link Bubble has been illegally modified and thus will not work reliably message?
A: This app was never modified. It was simply just added to system. Just uninstall using Titanium or root explorer and re-download.
I know this ROM isn't PERFECT, it will come with it's share of bugs. But I narrowed it down as much as I could to at least provide it as a daily driver and I think it is worthy of being a daily driver.
Also, GravityBox can be wonky! Stay cautious.
TrentsROM is based off 4.3 MJ9.
Stable, Simple, Sexy.
You add in the mods you want. It is pretty barebones with a real JellyBean/KitKat/Lollipop look & UI feel and not just a theme. If you are one to not care about so much about customization and mods built in, this is for you.
TrentsRom is a TRUE AOSP Experience on Touchwiz so If you are a fan of AOSP but want to retain touchwiz functions, this is for you. If you are living and can read this, this is for you.
Install The 4.3 MJ9 Firmware File via Odin If You Have Not Done So Already.
If you enjoy my work, ANY donation is appreciated as well as your Thanks. A ton of work and time has been put into these roms with a busy work schedule. Thank you.

Yeah after i let it sit for a while and google was done syncing everything back, it was just a tad bit snappier. Over the long run tho, you should see the difference compared to deodex. but either one was running fine. TBH, im barely testing odex right now. Been running my deodexed for a week.
Edit: After running it this morning, Odex so far is definitely snappy. Good news for me because I got scared for a moment.

Thank you guys. I was going for the EclipseROM type of look and feel, which if he hadn't stopped developing for the Note 2, that would be my default rom everyday and i wouldn't be making roms. But with Beans going in with Alliance Customization now, I felt a pure aosp rom was needed now for people like me. Im currently looking at ways to make this faster so any input is appreciated.
Will definitely give this a go tonight. Been wanting to try aosp and this is the best of both worlds
Downloading now. I was a fan of the eclipse roms as well. Really looking forward to this!

For the album art, what music player are you using?
For the battery bar, designers tend to rather use Zooper as it's a lot more capable of editing battery bars.
yeah I understand re bar but why have the option to rotate it,that doesn't make sense,I have used the default music player,music player pro and dfx music player,still can't get it to recognise proper cover,and to be truthful it's the only problem with this build I have found
exactly the same with google music player,reboot does not sort the problem

Hi mate this is why I have gone away from themer for the time being.
As I found you can make a phone look just as nice using zooper pro and kk launcher and I have not had one crash.
My main reason for this is a lot of advanced string codes that work fine in zooper pro just don't work in themer zooper.

cheers Joe I was looking at the kk launcher the other day,may have a play around later on and finally get round to using zooper maybe

Would you mind letting us know what some of these advanced string codes are? I have been a hardcore user of Zooper pro since its inception and I can think of a sing sting that does not work with Zooper Themer. Have of the advanced stings in use today in most widgets, come from myself and a handful of other hardcore Zooper Pro users in the G+ community.
The only things that do not work are custom built Tasker stings, as this would be impossible with Themer based themes distributed via the app.
If you are talking about MU support not being in there, well, there has been a vote entry for this addition for about a month now. Its been sitting at the top of the feature request list since I created it. http://support.themerapp.com/forums/224109-feature-requests

If you are not getting album art, please check the following setting in your device settings.
Settings > Security > Notification Access > Make sure Themer IS checked.
You should get a popup whenever you hit "choose source", prompting you to check this if it is not. We have had a few users state this does not happen. We are tracking the bug to try and resolve it.
yeah already checked that,I am getting album just not the right cover for the album playing

My bet, is that the players you are using are not fully supported by the version of MU in use in Themer.
There was an option in the stand alone version of MU for "alternate metadata collection", which would enable scaping of the data, including coverart, from players that do not conform to the standard Android method.
We can not add this method into the Themer version of MU right now, because it would/could cause issues. Basically it would require our users to switch between modes of collection based on each of the players in use.
I have been hoping to get the devs here to look into adding support for this, and turning it on/off based on the currently selected player.
This is really just a matter of finding the time to do all of the testing.
In the mean time, can you confirm that this is the problem. Try using GooglePlay Music for your player and see if the coverart displays correctly.
Also I just started this thread at our site to help with this if you would like to contribute.

If you are not getting album art, please check the following setting in your device settings.
Settings > Security > Notification Access > Make sure Themer IS checked.
You should get a popup whenever you hit "choose source", prompting you to check this if it is not. We have had a few users state this does not happen. We are tracking the bug to try and resolve it.

Its this like
When I use a progress bar for music as a track time bar.
Works for a bit but then stops and won't start again till a reboot.
When using string to show/hide a image.
Image will only show not hide.
Album art just shows one album art image for all albums.
And some time when using track time it seam's to be a double speed ie will so 10 seconds in just 5 seconds
Here are the codes I use
#TMU_TRACK_PERC#
[bo] $#TMU_ISPLAYING#=1?1$ [/bo]
[bo] $#TMU_ISPLAYING#=0?0$ [/bo]
#TMU_COVERART#
[bo] $#TMU_ISPLAYING#=0?0$ [/bo]
#TMU_PLAYTIME#
But they all work fine in zooper pro but not in themer zooper.
But it might be my phone as I have one of the few devices that has a x86 Intel atom CPU.
But at the same time if it is my phone why is zooper pro working fine.

Everything you have listed here is for Media Utilities based variables. So this is nothing to do with Zooper Themer itself.
When you have two version of Media Utilities installed on a device things get odd with Themer.
You have to remember that Themer itself has its own baked in version of MU, then you are adding a stand alone version (not sure which one) on top of it.
Dont ask me why, but Zooper Themer does NOT work with Themer MU. The variables just do not work at all, because the Themer version of MU does not broadcast anything for Zooper to pickup via variables. I have argued for this feature to be added since before I began work here. There is a thread at the support site asking for this to be added. Its been at the top of the list for some time now, but one more vote never hurts.
http://support.themerapp.com/forums...5218-media-utilities-support-in-themer-zooper
Once this support is added, it will work just fine.
BTW about 90% of what you want to do with Zooper and MU is getting ready to be possible in Everything Widget. Since I have yet to get them to budge on the Zooper MU thing, I have slowly had them add in a good deal of this stuff to EW. You should see it in the next update. Im sure you are in the same boat as me, and would rather do it in Zooper, but it is what it is. As a small bonus, due to the way EW renders layers, the reaction time for changes shown on screen with this stuff is much faster. Its not quite instant on touch, but its much faster than Zooper.
There will be no rotation in EW though, nor should you ever really use it. This is due to the way both EW and Zooper render widgets. First off you cant get faster than 1fps, which looks like ass. I introduced the spinning record idea to the Zooper Pro community, and worked with a few other guys to see how well it could be optimized. In the end, we decided it didnt look good enough to warrant the battery drain it causes.
You have to always keep in mind that Zooper renders the widget you see on your desktop as a flat PNG image. Every layer in your widget is compiled into this one png. So this means that if you have something that is changing in the widget on a per-second basis, it is asking Zooper to re-render a new PNG every second. This will MURDER a battery. The best you can do is set the rotation to only occur when music is playing, and to be static when paused.
FYI, Everything Widget does the same flattening to PNG that Zooper does. The difference is that each layer in the widget is flattened into its own PNG. This is the reason why EW will be faster to change an image (play button to pause button for example) because it does not need to think or take into account all of the other layers when it re-renders. It only changes the layer that needs to update.

Hmmmm... There have been a few users recently that needed to completely un-install > delete MCS folder > reinstall.
I would suggest you take this route to see if it fixes your issue.
Since you are flashing a new rom on your device, I would suggest a fresh install from the market, and not a reinstall of a backup.
Let me know how it goes.

Thanks I'll give it a try with my new theme.
I made this theme using just zooper pro but it will save the widget template to sd then redo in themer zooper and see if that works.
Here is my new theme
I tried to use themer zooper for my new theme.
But the track time bar don't work, and no track or album info, and wrong album art

funnily enough the new firmware flash sorted it out,or seems to have done so far only tried it with google player but is now displaying the correct album art,as is the default music player,player pro doesn't display anything,will try out a few more later on

Great info, everyone! If we're not to expect custom ROMs then it would seem Xposed is the best we can do?
Any known conflicts would be appreciated to share.
Am I correct in assuming that just because an Xposed module works on the stock Z3 doesn't necessarily mean it'll work with our variants?
Using 20mp SuperiorAuto, GravityBox KK, & GEM Xperia Xposed. Only issue I have seen so far is that it says "Preparing SD Card" sometimes. Not sure if one is disconnecting it or if it is something else yet. Not in Xposed I have changed font with Toolbox Pro by JRummy, Sound Mod v3.3 with all features from Z3 development, & blocked ads with AdAway.

Not entirely certain. I bought it when it was on sale years ago & haven't looked back. Best app I've ever had for freezing apps, changing font, & a few other things. Won't do a couple things with some phones like changing icons, themes, & boot screens but what it does do it does well. Even the processor tweaks & ad blocker seem to work good enough.

I've found that it works for some apps. I didn't configure it in any special way, though. Gmail did work with the settings I configured through Xposed LED, but Google Messenger did not seem to work with the settings I created, so I honestly don't know what was going on.
I really wanted to decrease the amount of time in between LED pulses, so I didn't have to stare at my phone for 4 seconds (terrible, I know) before finding out if I have a notification or not. Coming from a Droid RAZR HD running CM11, I was really pleased to see that the Z3v had a similar LED bar, I just wish it was able to be configured with the Xperia ROM like I could with CM11 on the RAZR.

Hi GigaSPX,
I am having trouble with both the Xperia Xposed options out there. Seems that every time I load them it disconnects my memory card & I have to reset all my ringtones, Google Music doesn't pick up where I left off & my email ringtones won't allow it to change at all. I just keep getting a stopped working error. Have you seen any issues with it?
Also I'm getting a little bit of overheat issues but I've hoping the restore I did will take care of that & I haven't loaded everything back just yet.
Lastly do you know what settings on Amplify are best or do you just leave it at the standard settings it pulls up?
Thanks for any input you might have.

Right now my phone isn't handling too well with Xposed either. I don't know how amplify works and I didn't even know I could set my own settings. What I've been advised to do though is uninstall Xposed and reinstall since my phone has been overheating and force crashing. I am just going to use 20MP Superior Auto only first. I didn't quite take a good look at Xperia Xposed features since I'm kinda fine with the stock setup myself.
Hope this helps.

[Oreo] Substratum Theme Compatability

Has anyone had any luck applying Substratum/other overlays on Oreo (specifically CRA1)?
I have Andromeda, Sungstratum, all that stuff installed.
Yes but it took a while to find out how it worked. I'm rooted BTW so I don't need Andromeda.
Compile & activate the theme.
Reboot.
Go to substratum - manager
Activate all overlays again
Reboot
That's how it works for me.

How do you root CRA1?
Just recently got the manual Oreo CRA1 update coming from Nougat on T-Mobile S8+. It is incredibly quicker and much more fluid.
On Substratum I'm on Swift Black Complete Edition, along with Material Black from Samsung Themes. On Nougat that worked buy using the "Sungstratum" add on from the Play Store. When I upgrade to Oreo 8.0, I was no longer able to see Sungstratum in the Play Store. Instead, Substratum asked for another plug-in to allow it to run fully, Andromeda. So of course, had to buy that too.
But anyway, it's working nice. Visually that is. After finally being able to set it up to where I need it. Although, I am only still trying to figure out how to get a dark overlay for the notification card. Haven't figured that out yet.
You will have installation issues of overlays if you upgrade to Oreo CRA1 because of the new different plug-in used to activate Substratum. In my case, here is what I had to do when I installed a new overlay from a new theme. The symptom is, I install an overlay, but it doesn't show in under the "Manager" tab. Only under the theme and in the orange color, so it's saying that it's disabled. No matter however many times I select the overlay and choose options and re-enable overlay OR change overlay status, nothing happens.
What I had to do was simply restart the phone, run the Andromeda client from my computer and then go back to the overlay in Substratum and enable it, only then does it enable and turn green. The overlay actually installls this time.
I hate that part. Sucks for when trying and messing with new overlays just to try them out, makes the whole process just a freaking hassle.
Now, to the real question. You know how to get dark notification cards? Maybe dark notification tiles for the lock screen ?? that would be awesome.

Yep. Search Coffee in the forums and install it. It will then be in your Samsung themes to apply. It will black out your settings, phone, contacts and notifications. The QS Tile color comes from the coffee theme. The actual icons are from a Substratum theme.

I've had no problems. I would disable your overlays before you apply coffee. Apply coffee and see if the notifications are blacked out. If they are Grey change the resolution on your display back and forth and see of that fixes it. If that doesn't rebooting should fix it. The only minor drawback to this theme is that Samsung wants to kill it after it's been applied for 10 minutes. To stop that from happening once you get the theme working properly go in to developer options and stop the themes app. Then go in to settings-Apps-Enable system apps and clear cache and data for the Samsung themes app and the themes app. It seems like a lot of work but once you've done it a few times it only takes a minute or 2. Any time you reboot your phone you will have to redo that process. Hope it works out for you. Reach out with any other questions.
