Hello, i came across a problem, when applying a theme to the P8 a problem occurs.
The time on the desktop en statusbar only refreshes when screen is on and unlocked.
When screen is locked and the time is f.e. 10:50, when you unlock it the time on desktop and statusbar isnt the same as lockscreen. Say that you last checked your phone at 10:25, the clocks will show that time for a second and then changes to the correct time. Very annoying!!
Tried different themes and they all do the same. No problem with default theme.
Hope someone recognises it and maybe someone has a solution.

What launcher and widget are you using?

Hi i'm from venezuela and i just bought an international SGS3
i put all my google data and all but the Weather widget in the main screen shows the wrong time
although the time on the top is right, this one its set 5 hours ahead and the city
of the weather is right to, this is really bugging me
because it looks beautifull this widget but the time its so wrong :crying:
any ideas on how to fix? this because i even try clearing the data on the weather app.
Guys I've purchased a New S3, and what I've noticed is that the stock default clock widget doesnt refresh automatically on unlock. So there is always a difference in the notification bar time and the widget time. Only when I click on the widget it updates after opening alarm. What the hell is wrong with my phone?:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Are you using a task killer? If so, ignore it in the task killer.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
i have the same problem , no task killer
stock rom , siyah kernel
It used to work i don't know what happened i didn't change anything
Same. Didnt change anything. also no taskkiller installed...persistant issue.
Same issue here and I've tried Go Launcher/Apex with Beautiful Widget/Fancy Widget/Beweather Pro.
An unbelievable phone (knocks spots off of anything I've ever had) yet it can't tell the bloody time properly - really annoying!!!!
A quick fix is put it in landscape to redraw/refresh the screen to update the clock when I've brought the phone out of sleep. Not ideal, but at least the clock is updated. Maybe the JB update will fix this issue? Who knows!
The only widget I can get to work properly is the native weather clock. I don't want such a big widget so I've tried several different other clock widgets and they won't keep the correct time. I wish someone would find out what the problem is. I like the clocks in Beautiful Widgets, but they won't update.
This has happened twice to me. My screen is all set up the way I like it and then all of a sudden all my widgets disappear. Then a pop up comes asking me to allow widgets and I do. This is very irritating because I dont want to keep making new widgets everytime.

It's a terrible bug that we're trying to sort out. It should be sorted out soon, but for now it's best to export your theme (Themer Setting - Advanced - Export, then you can find it in the Export tab in My Themes) as this will backup your current screen. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Good to know you're on top of it. It usually only happens to me after a reboot. I usually remember to export before rebooting, but it just happened to me as I woke my device.. of course this was after spending an hour or so working on a new layout :/

Don't worry this bug is on our top priority list, we'll do our best to get the bug removed as soon as possible.
Apps and Widgets Still Disappearing
Hi - I see this is an old thread but I found it through Google, and I am a little surprised to see this has been an issue for so long. I am experiencing this very issue. Sometimes app icons and widgets will disappear even without me rebooting anything - just swiping through different homescreens. I have a Galaxy Note 4. Please let me know if there's possibly anything I can do to keep this from happening - I can't count the number of times I've re-created a widget.
Also, I was wondering - does Themer affect the default homescreen (TouchWiz in this case)? I had my TouchWiz homescreen set up the way I like with apps categorized into folders, but when I switched back to it, I see that apps and widgets have disappeared or moved around on TouchWiz as well. My suspicion is somehow Themer affected it.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Same problem here. I use the Samsung Music widget, resized to show a bit of the playlist and it regularly disappears from my screen. very annoying!
Will this be fixed in 2015?
Also there is a regular hick-up in painting the home screen, like it's not loaded from memory. This really reduces the overall experience with this great launcher!

Hi,
It's a very complex bug to overcome, and we've eliminated it from almost every device. Soon this bug should be fixed on all devices. For now you can always use this quick fix:
1. Uninstall Themer.
2. Delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder (Remove the Exported folder if you have saved any themes).
3. Reinstall Themer.
If the problem still occurs we recommend selecting the Save Theme option when you long press on the homescreen, as this will temporarily save that theme. Hope this helps!

I'm having the same problem with disappearing widgets on reboot, but only with my LG G2 D801 (not as much of a problem, but also present, on my HTC One M7). The "problem" widgets are the non-Zooper widgets such as Digical+, Poweramp, Chronus, etc.
Hope it gets sorted out, because this launcher is superb (I'll keep using it, but would prefer the problem be eliminated).
Driving me nuts!
I spend at least an hour setting up Zooper and the rest of my widgets. Then something happens forcing me to reboot my phone. Poof! All my hard work is gone. This is 6th time this has happened on my unrooted Note 4! I love this launcher and have become quite used to the theme I've set up. Nothing I've tried works, exporting, saving, nothing. Please fix this! I'm seriously thinking I'll have to find another launcher if it happens again. It's becoming to time consuming.
I have a similar issue. I accidentally drug my widget too close to the dock, which crashed nova launcher. After nova restarted, my widget won't show on the screen, but when I go directly into zooper app, it still shows the widget active in screen?!?
Hello all!
Been using Themer for some days now, and it's just great compared to other launchers out there. I tried GO launcher but hated the ads and 'chinese style'. Tried Nova too, but it was too similar to TW in my use. Themer is both original and not-pushy.
I use the HUD theme, which looks great and keeps the kids away from my phone (because it looks so weird ). One thing I don't really care about is the weather. I have a weather app I use daily to check the weekly forecast, I go out a few times a day, I have windows in my house so I can check the weather by turning my head... I really don't need Themer telling me the wrong weather anymore.
So, my request: could someone swap the weather widget to show something else, like core temp? I know I could do it myself, but it would take weeks and most of you can probably do it in a few minutes.

Hi there!
Having something like core temp is a bit tricky, as the widgets we provide don't really include that option.
Have you tried going into Themer Settings - Weather - then changing your weather provider - this might fix your temp problem.
You could always post the theme's wallpaper (found in Themer Wallpapers in your Gallery) and we could try Photoshop the "temperature" text and replace it with something else instead?
Changing the provider doesn't help. It still shows 0 all the time.
I can't think of much else to fill the empty space with. While I was quickly checking how the themes are built, I noticed that there's a line in launchersettings.xml that looked weird:
Code:
<string name="com.mycolorscreen.themer.wallpaper_transistion">slide</string>
Is it really supposed to be 'transistion' and not 'transition'?
Anyway, onto the request again. I'm starting to feel OK with the weather filling the space. I think I have figured out something though: I have all my location things off, so it mught cause a problem for the weather widget. Ideally I'd like it to work so that you have an option to lock your location (just use the one it has now and lock it or type it in) and then it just regularly sends weather data on the same location to the widget. Now it seems to try to fetch your location, then send it to the weather service and that sends the data back to widget. I don't travel much so having a locked location would be a nice thing to have in the widget. Only time the widget has chances of updating the temp is when I go geocaching
Does it even work like that?
Hi guys,
First post here so please be gentle with me.
After having a Samsung S7 Edge for quite some time, i took the dive to purchase the Mate 20 Pro (8GB/256Gb model with 256gb NM card) as a replacement which i am very happy with. I did not like the default interface Huawei has put in the phone and so installed the Smart Launcher 5... an app which i had on my Samsung.
All is well and fine up until recently when my clock widget on the home screen no longer updates.. or when it does, requires opening/closing apps and multiple screen wipes before it updates. Pictures below.

I've retried reinstalling the Launcher, rebooting the device, restoring launcher from backup, changing the clock widget to another application, removing and readding the clock widget.
Not a major problem, more of an annoyance. Is this a problem with the app itself or an issue with the patch update? Currently running EMUI 9.0.0.171 (C636E10R3P2)
Thanks

Happens to me sometimes, I think its more to do with battery saving. When the phone is running low on battery it aggressively shuts off background processes, and I believe it closes the process that updates the widget or something similar. It rarely happens to me though, I made sure the widgets are allowed to run in the background. But every now again it does re-appear, mostly like I said when the battery level is low.
I am using Nova Launcher and the Transparent clock weather widget.
