I tried installing a black theme to get rid of the "white" bar at the bottom in some apps in order to help stop the screen burn at the bottom of the device. Now i have lost the nice changing images on the unlock screen and i cant find a way to go back to the default or remove the theme i installed. can anyone point me in the right direction please? i have not used emui before and i am a little stuck.

The changing lockscreen images is called magazine unlock, try searching for that in the settings menu, I'm on emui 8 on my p20 pro so not sure where it would be on emui 9.

When I updated my phone to Marshmallow, the home screen background got darkened, as if some kind of black overlay got placed over it. This has something to do with the phone, as it stays darkened when I change the wallpaper and in stock, Apex and Nova Launchers. How do I disable this and keep the wallpapers bright?

Seems your phone is broken, No one here has ever mentioned anything like what you describe
Flash back to Lollipop and see if it's fixed

I have not unlocked the booter, rooted my phone, or anything like that, and I don't have a Lollipop backup either. Is it still possible for me to roll back, or will I have to root my phone to fix this??

i have alos tbis problem, the applied wallpaper gets a little bit dark on the homescreen, no problem on the lockscreen though!!
That is indeed true... It gets dark on the homescreen... But that is an effect because of all the icons etc i think...

Anyone found a way to make it black or transparent or anything but white after the latest firmware update? I really hate the change and can't seem to find a solution. Hope someone can help. Thanks.

I have not gotten the latest update just yet, but I've heard about it, have you tried something like Navbar Apps?: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.damianpiwowarski.navbarapps
Yep it worked wonders before the update, but not on the home screen anymore. It still works in apps, but you need to set it to just before black. If it's black, it fails for some reason.

So am I understanding this correctly, it is no longer transparent on the homescreen?
Sadly no. It's white'ish . ?
Hmm, is the only apps you have installed being able to modify the navbar, navbar apps?
I read about the update, and to my understanding, the only big thing the changed was not letting users pick black, and immesive mode.
But thats shouldn't change the transparency of the navbar.. Actually you can't even change the transparency in the settings..

This has a fix if you're not opposed to a theme.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/themes/theme-dark-default-t3597615
I have the german version, there is a point in settings:
- dock, dockhintergrund, Transparenz
which works fine.
should be - dock, background, transparency - in your version?
I just got my Mate 10 pro 2 Days back and I upgraded from Samsung Note 4.
1 Feature of Note was that the Playlist was available even when phone was locked. I fail to find similar Option in Mate 10 Pro with default Music App.
Am I Missing something or it isn't available ?
Please Guide with alternatives and I wouldn't want to root my phone.
And If root is necessary Please guide as well. I am not a tech Retard so I wont take much time. Just first Huawei phone.

There is a Magazine Unlock Option in Settings.
That has further three options:
1. Subscriptions
2. Auto Update over Wifi (Enabled)
3. Auto Delete Images older than 3.
In themes I dont see anything Magazine related.

The Player is there, I can change songs. But I am changing songs 1 song at a time.
In Note 4, I had the option of going through the entire playlist that was running.

Don't think it's possible with emui.
You have to change launcher imo.

You can have magazine unlock without changing pictures everytime.
You have just to erase pictures from magazine unlock in Settings security lockscreen magazine unlock souscription ?
Talk about bumping threads, i simply came across this and can't help but wonder, what planet is my mate 10 pro since i lack those options, although i have magazine, just for the wallpapers, id say
The music that is running .. can be changed 1 by 1 >.>
On my Note 4, I could access the play-list while phone was locked.
How do I add my own images to Magazine Unlock?
Settings - Screen lock & passwords - Magazine unlock - Subscriptions - Added by me - Add, choose image.
Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I'm not seeing the option on my Mate 10 Pro. Any ideas? Did the setting change when an update was pushed out?

It's not on mine either. I tried searching for Magazine Unlock, nothing came up.
You can also drop them in the folder...
If you set a theme with slide to unlock, magazine unlock will disappear from settings, try setting one of the default themes then magazine unlock will appear in settings

Super weird. Im on 9.0.0.211 and couldn't find this magazine unlock feature...
Is it possible to pick a new color other than the default orange? I probably want a blue or something, but I don't really want to mess with framework apks. Is this yet possible? I did check the asus theme app but I did not see an option for that.
Yeah. Use the themes app, go to my themes, and then find the create button. If you can't find it I'll reply with more info
Put a blue picture as background and make the theme, change your wallpaper back after.

thanks I found the create button under my creations. I can now change the colour settings and icon shape, wallpaper, etc. I'm just playing around with it now. I think I can get it the way I like from here on my own. thanks again man!
EDIT: Actually, it looks better now, but it kicked me out of dark mode in settings and such. I actually prefer it this way, but its also interesting. I wonder if any of the mods I tried initially may not have worked because of the default theme's dark mode. hmmm...
I wanted to make my status bar always black with white icons. used to work on my old phone, but it was old. so yea doesn't work
