Any way to install / use Samsung Themes ?? - Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Questions & Answers

Hi I have just bought my new Samsung Tab S3 !
I was expecting Samsung Themes to be part of this tablet.... but.... again.... a new tablet without Samsung themes support .
Is there anyway to add "Samsung themes" to Tab S3 ???
Many Thanks !!

I hope we get this. I don't want to root just for the themes. If the Tab S2 is any indication then this may never happen for the Tab S3.

I haven't rooted my Tab S3, but I have a rooted Tab S2 on Nougat and as the OS is practically the same on both I tried to get Galaxy Themes running on it.
Progress so far is that Galaxy Themes is installed and runs, but won't download and apply the themes from the store. Next up I'd need to trawl though the logs and see if there are any clues. If anyone has some spare time and wants to help out, I've attached the needed files to this post. Put the Galaxy Themes and ThemeCenter folders in /system/priv-app (set permissions if needed) and change your devices model number to SM-G935F or another theme-supported device in build.prop then reboot. I will cross-post this to the Tab S2 forums too.
Screenshots:
1. Themes now appears in settings
2. Theme store
3. Theme downloading
4. Install failed

Themes could be really great ?.
Cannot understand why seems to put limits with the best tablet they have and their own software....
Hope to see this soon in my tablet....

Has anyone managed to successfully get substratum working on our tablets? Latest updates still don't work.

Tried it last month, couldn't get it to work.. got refund on the app.
I just want to make the pull down menu, or volume menu black so it doesn't blind me everytime I change the volume at night while watching movies lol

Why don't you just swipe up or down on the right side of the screen to change the volume?
