Hi everyone, I have a p20 lite ane-lx3. Since October security patch update, when I want to apply one theme, the theme doesn't apply properly because the status bar and navigation bar doesn't change :'(
I don't know if I have problems with my phone or huawei quit that feature.. Have you been experiencing this?
Thank you.
PS: I have done two factory reset on the phone.
Did you restart your phone after applying the theme?

Yes, I did but nothing changed. Also I did two factory reset but didn't work :'(
Hmm don't know Bro. Restart after applying theme worked for me. Then the themes loaded correctly.
you should send your phone to repair
I am experiencing the same problem. It seems like the last couple of updates changed some things and that has broken the theming engine. I guess we will just have to wait till the next update where it might get fixed.
even I too want to confirm that there is nothing wrong with the phone. People are not checking their phones properly and are under the impression that their themes are working properly. To know if a theme is working fully, after applying a theme and reboot, check if icons under settings applet have changed or not, check whether status bar icons are changing or not, if having VoLTE connection, check whether its changing to HD instead of VoLTE(applicable for some themes), battery icons and even some apps interface (usually the Calculator).
Currently the only thing that is working is changing of app icons, wallpapers and a few colors like message/sms colors, and nothing else unless you use Xposed to tweak your visuals or some substratum theme engine. Even Huawei too confirmed that their theme engine is broken and they are working on a fix with Android 9 update, but they are clueless about when it will be released for beta testing, but they confirmed that development of emui for p20 lite is on the works and broken themes wont be fixed until l Android 9.
However some noobs are happy that their app icons got changed and are celebrating the fact that theme engine is working properly.
@fbh59
Thnx for the tip. Feeling like a big noob right now.
Never realised that only the dialer, icons and colours changed whilst changing themes.

yes!!! let me attach a theme, kindly test and post your screenshots. I shall show you the difference between your smartphone visuals and that of mine. I can showcase as I am still with September patch. But I am not sure whether I can show the difference as you seem to use P10
Thanks, tested it and only things that don't change are settings menu icons and status bar.
Nice theme, no fan of apple so I'm not going to use it but nice work!!
Huawei Theme Engine Broken
While these are the screen visuals of my screen with an older security patch. I didn't use any substratum theme engine or Xposed tweaks to change the colour within apps like Play Store, VLC. Even Outlook interface was changed to Red instead of usual blue, but couldn't post it due to all confidential items inside it.
P.S: I don't know whats so "apple" in it? I used this theme just for a neat status bar. Used a different theme for app icons. The only thing I had to bear is under software version it shows ios 11 instead of emui 8(but who visits that screen). Lockscreen too can be changed. I might use an app like Theme Editor for EMUI to change status bar icons, but certain things are not changed like displaying HD instead of VoLTE. Copy pasting of this theme's status bar into other themes and building a new theme too does no help.
Hence the problem
Sh*t. I have the same problem with December patch for p20 lite.
App icons are changing but icons on settings are stock icon

Just received EMUI 9.1 (9.1.0.132) and the themes are still broken also did a reset + cleared cache. Is there any other solution?
Huawei themes does not work!
When I enter the app no themes apply
I may have found it, read this:
''We appreciate the feedback and would like to share some background information and clarifications.
The Overlay Manager Service (OMS) is intended for device manufacturer's use. OMS, in its current form, is not designed to be a generic theming feature -- more design considerations will need to be put into it in order to uphold Android platform's security and product standards for users. Accordingly, OMS has never been advocated as a public developer feature.
Earlier this year a security patch (CVE-2017-13263) was released to OEMs for Android Oreo devices. The patch restricts the installation of overlays to pre-installed or system-signed apps, in response to a legitimate security issue raised in Android Oreo. Android Pie also includes this critical security patch, so it restricts overlays in the same way as does Android Oreo.
We understand that custom theming is an important capability for some users. We will take your feedback into consideration with any future work in this area.''

Don't report this to Huawei, they can't do much about it and only Google can, but they have to find a way to get rid of the security issue before making it work again.

Well i have one theme working on thr G6 right now and I have a thread open in the themes and apps section for support and feedback.
Now this is slightly tricky because there are some obstacles I am facing with porting some of these over. I cannot port over them all due to some extreme ui differences in a few apps. The main issue (but not the only one ) is because with the G6 there are a few apps where the text is hard coded white and thr same apps the trxt is hard coded black. So in short one device will get screwed with either dark text on a dark background or white text on a light background which creates readability issues. I most certainly cannot have that happen. And also the G6 has a lot of different elements that can be themed. So if i were to add those to an exisiting v20 theme it will cause the v20 to no longer work because it's telling the theme engine to theme xxx icon or xxx color which isn't supported. Thus the theme doesn't function. So that's an issue.
So what the plan is, is to port over a few themes that I can get it to function properly on both devices and the ones that can't will have to be a new theme.
Off the top of my head the ones that can expect to work on all devices are: Dark Nougat (already updated and live), Flow, Indigo flow and crush.
Remix, Vector, Dark Material, Dark AOSP, Pixel Ui are not going to work and will have to be new themes that will only work with the G6.
I'm not sure about Dark Ui theme yet. It may or may not work.

I tested this theme for the Dev and it definitely had white on white text in the sms app. The dialer had black text (ABC) on a dark grey background as well but I don't know if either are hard coded.

Interesting you say that, because I have some issues with some of the LG free themes from their smartworld store. Mainly with the notification panel. When there is a notification, the text is white same as the background. I am surprised on how they can mess up big time like that!

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.

Force Dark Mode for Android Oreo (8.1)
Google introduced Android's new WallpaperColors API for Android 8.1 in December 2017.
This module is for bypassing the API by returning always black color values to force system wide dark mode and to save your eyes of the light theme UI. Dark theme is automatically enabled when using dark wallpapers, but the problem is usually live wallpapers which must implement the API as they are dedicated applications and in control of the wallpaper rendering, otherwise system defaults to using light theme.
The module is really simple at first (version 1.0) as there's no options or user interface, but I accept feedback and help for future development when it's needed and/or wanted.
Requirements
Android 8.1 (API 27) or newer
Xposed Framework version 90 or newer
Usage
Download and enable module
Reboot.
Embrace the darkness.
Links
Download APK
Xposed repository
Github repository
Does this enable dark theme in settings too? Or just notification panel?

This module enables global dark mode by fakeing wallpaper color. Every app that observes WallpaperColor API for theming (like System UI) are effected.
Settings app doesn't implement color theming, so it stays white.
I guess this won't work on Oreo 8.0, will it?
If so, do you have any other idea how to get rid of the sunglasses if using my phone in a dark room? Think it's kind of annoying that they switched from dark grey to nearly white
Is it possible to implement the exact opposite? (Option to force light mode when a dark wallpaper is on)?

No, dark theme was implemented on Android 8.1 by original Android developers. I'm not responsible for the actual theme and this module is for force enabling it.
Read the first post.
Edit: You could check if Android Oify has this feature.

Substratum seems to give me problems
Hi'yall
First of all thanks for the mod it would be great.
It truly enables the dark mode even on the app drawer. Which is being missed by the next dark theme forcer app. But this makes fb messenger, the full version (orca) crash as soon as i try to open a chat thread. Remove the mod and it is fine... Not enough to disable it...
Have u guys felt this or is it only for me?
Btw i am on:
Xiaomi redmi note 4 mido
Los 15 straight from lineage.
Magisk latest
Xposed sdk 27
I install it and enable it in xposed but my n960f seems nothing happened.
Updates Incoming (some day)
Because of a number of the feature requests in this thread, I'm planning to do a big upgrade and add compability for modern (eg. Android 10) versions in the future. The plan is to add support for users that aren't using Xposed and fix bugs that has risen from Android updates. That would include stock Android users and Magisk users or other mod framework users, if and where possible.
Feature Requests
Don't expect for the upgrade to come too soon, but I promise that I'll continue working on this project when I can. I have really to tight schedule so just hang a bit and submit bug reports and / or feature requests.
For proper tickets visit the GitHub repository's issues page and add the features you want there.

Well. The module is made for Android Oreo 8.1, so I don't see why it wouldn't work. I haven't tested it with other than stock Nexus 5x, but the changes are made for AOSP.
Report back if you can't get it to work. I'm happy to help if you got any issues. I will not guarantee that I will make any updates since this is kind of forgotten and "left as is" project of mine.

Hey everyone, welcome to my thread. I'm hoping to see some familiar faces around here so please pop in and give a quick hello! For those who aren't familiar with me, I've been designing themes for LG for a few years now and have supported devices from the V10, V20, G4, G5, G6, G7, V30 and now I welcome the V40! So the purpose of this thread is to provide support, feedback and have an open channel to communicate with everyone regarding updates, ideas, and give support to those who need it. The only rules are to be kind and do not start or engage in negative discussions. For the most part that seldom happens because that's just not how I do things around here so we shouldn't have to worry about any of that stuff. If someone does come in and rips on one of you or me just report the user and one of our moderators will send them on their way. I encourage people to post their screenshot setups or other things that come from using any of my themes. For example you may have set a custom dpi or something and found it looks really clean. Definitely share that with people here and mention what you set it to be so others can give it a whirl. Now the important part when using any of my themes is to actually read the app description when you're looking at it on Google Play. I often post important information there that you may find useful in order to get the best experience. Also I am very active on Google plus too so be sure to follow my LG themes collection there as I post things there too. Anyway let's get started. This thread will hopefully grow over time, as will this page. I'm taking all the posts on it in the event that I need to post more information about various themes. That's just how I do things. So let's begin. Introducing.....
Pixel Experience Dark
Pixel Experience is a dark theme based on the dark mode of Android Pie. It includes such elements like dark notifications and a floating card style quick settings panel. Please note that some third party apps may not play well with the dark notifications and cause some readability issues depending on your surroundings. While with Android Oreo we cannot correct this on all apps, an installable add-on patch will be made available to give you light notifications while retaining the dark user interface.
Pixel Experience Dark is designed to be a dark but not black theme. You will notice the smooth transition on how it blends into google apps that have dark mode. This was intentionally done and I think it jives quite well with it. You can expect updates to come as required when time permits. Some third party apps will be added over time but any modifications to them will be light adjustments. Unlike Substratum if a third party app updates, you cannot simply disable that particular overlay if the update breaks functionality of the app. You would have to disable the entire theme which is not something that I'm willing to do as it would have strong implications.
This theme includes dynamic, adaptive icons. So you can go into settings, display, home and choose your icons shapes. Notice that you now have an option for circular icons!!!! LG previously does not have this option included but I have added it to the theme so you'll probably want to change your icons to round.
Another favorite thing of mine is to unlock the themes app icon shortcut. You'll notice this present in my screenshots. To enable this you'll need to use something like quick shortcut maker or nova and make an activity shortcut under wallpaper&themes and then set it as a shortcut and you'll have quick access to the themes app.
LG in UX 7/7+ has an interesting functionality where if adaptive/dynamic icons are applied that the LG music app will retain a light navbar and playing now background. It makes no sense why they coded it that way but you'll notice that even on stock theme you cannot alter the navbar background color in that app. You can however use the app navbar apps if it bothers you or you can install the add-on patch will will fix that, but it will also kill the adaptive and dynamic icons and you'll be stuck with all icons having the rounded square look like the stock theme has. This patch will be available soon. If you're using a third party launcher you will definitely want to use this patch.
Light Notification Patches.
So some users may experience issues with some third party apps having black text (which said apps hard coded) on the dark background. This is not something I can fix so if this is something that bother's you then you can install the following patches for light notifications. The entirety of the theme will remain dark except for the notifications. There are 5 apks needed in order to do this. Please follow these steps exactly how I've listed them in order for this to work properly.
Download all 5 patches from this link Here!!!!
Next change to stock theme.
Now install all 5 patches.
Then after you've installed them, apply Pixel Experience Dark (Please note on the rare occasion your SystemUI may FC. Don't panic. Just wait a few seconds and it should be ok)
Next reboot and you should be all set.
If you decided you want to uninstall the light patches and go back to dark you will have to uninstall the entire theme, then reinstall it from Playstore and re-apply it.
Twilight
See bottom of description for Quick Settings Add-on Patches!!!
This is Twilight an LG Home+ theme for your LG V40 or LG G7 running Oreo only (Pie is not yet available on my devices and therefore not yet supported!!!) This theme is a premium quality theme like no other Home theme+. What you see is what you get and that is quality and attention to details! Twilight is a dark theme with bright gradient accents throughout. The app icons have a slight gradient to them, with some more noticeable than others. This theme does not support adaptive icons as some of the key features of this theme are blocked by enabling the adaptive icons. If you'd prefer adaptive you will need to use a third party launcher like Hyperion or Nova.
No need to run a third party theme system any more, just use the system theme chooser and you can enjoy all the benefits of an advanced theme system.
***Third party Quick Settings Icons:
Some apps allow the user to add a shortcut activity to the quick settings panel. This is not supported by this theme whatsoever. If you decided to add any icons to your quick settings panel they will not show up. They will be 100% transparent. They cannot be added. If this bothers you then in a future update I will make an add-on quick settings patch that will add usability back for them, however it will sacrifice the creativity of the current structure of both styles of available quick settings icons. It will be more minimal and all the icons will be the same color like how most themes are. Due to the complexity and advanced nature of this theme this is something that I am aware of and have embraced 100%.
To apply the theme simply go into settings/display and select themes. From there select Twilight, and push apply!
That's it! Simple, easy and quick.
Please note that refunds will not be given for installations on non LG V40 or G7 Oreo Devices. As the title of the theme clearly indicates which device this is for and this app description does specify which OS version is supported..
This theme is also meant to run at the highest resolution, with the lowest stock setting for the actual display size. Larger sizes may cause some elements to look slightly off. If this happens please lower the display sizes of the iconography.
If you run into any issues please send me an email directly instead of leaving a poor rating. Often I am very quick to reply (unless I'm sleeping and you're in a different time zone) and great to solve any issues. The review system is not meant to be a support channel!
Quick tip... Search and install the app "Quick Shortcut Maker" on google play. Install, then long press on your home screen and select the 1x1 quick shortcut maker widget and drag it on your home screen. Then in the activities tab, scroll down to"wallpaper & themes" and expand it. touch 1st option at the top of the list that doesn't have and upwards arrow. Hit Create" button at the bottom and now you have a themes app shortcut you can place on your desktop!!!
Thank you for your support and enjoy theme!!!
This theme as you can see from the screen previews shows two different styles of Quick Settings icons. This is because I designed both styles and had a tough time deciding on which ones to go with so I decided to make them both. The minimal icons are default. However if you wish to change them simply download but do not install (yet) the corresponding patch to the style that you want. After you've downloaded the patch, apply the default LG theme and then install the patch(s). Then reboot and reapply the theme. You will now see a different style. If you wish to change back the original style you can repeat the above process using the other patch. You may be required to reboot again afterwarsd if your notifications have a white background behind them or are not rounded. I've uploaded and clearly labeled both patches. They can be found here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=288986
Thank you so much for your support and I hope you enjoy this theme. I've worked extremely hard on this and by far it was the most challenging and time consuming project I've ever made!
Pixel Experience
This is the Pixel Experience. For those who want to enjoy a lighter theme with minimal, subtle changes that want to be able to set it and forget it without having to worry about constant Google app updates and be able to enjoy the Pixel look. This is for you and you're gonna love it! Enjoy the clean and refreshing look and experience the Pixel!!! #WhiteUiMustLive
Now you probably didn't bother to read that crap above so let's just post some screenshots shall we?
G Theme 3
Click me for Video Promo
t's back!!! This is G Theme 3. Why G Theme you ask? Well I think you can figure that out when you use it what it's all about. This theme is a premium quality theme like no other Home theme+. What you see is what you get and that is quality and attention to details! G Theme 3 is a dark theme with beautiful colors and designs throughout it. The Dark Notifications compliment the ui and battery life! This theme supports adaptive icons and I recommended choosing circle which is unlocked as a feature and can be accessed from going into the settings application and then going into display, home and choose the icon shape. Due to this the music app does have a light overlay at the bottom which is a bug that LG should address!!! For real LG fix that will ya.
Now this is the important part. This theme is only for LG devices running UX 8, Android 9.0 pie. If you are running a different LG UX or android version this will not work and if you upgrade from the above this theme may not work properly. It is presented on an "as is basis". I do my best to try and update to allow for the theme to function on all devices as best I can and as soon as I can. However due to LG's interesting update cycle sometimes one device may update prior to others.
To apply the theme simply go into settings/display and select themes. From there select Twilight, and push apply! then reboot and then reapply the theme again. It's a bit more in depth than other themes but given the complexity of this premium theme it is required for all elements to be themed properly.
That's it! Simple, easy and quick.
If you're using the V40 or any other UX8 device that doesn't have the seamless wallpapers here's a link to one which will change to the one shown in the theme upon applying the theme! For those that do already have seamless wallpapers you will see this new option now available in your list of delectable seamless wallpapers instead of the silly pink one that was previously there.
Seamless Wallpaper right Here!!!
Please note that refunds will not be given for installations on non LG G8 or LG V40, LG 50 UX 8 (running Pie) Devices. As the title of the theme clearly indicates which device this is for and this app description does specify which OS version is supported..
This theme is also meant to run at the highest resolution, with the lowest stock setting for the actual display size. Larger sizes may cause some elements to look slightly off. If this happens please lower the display sizes of the iconography.

Thank you so much for your support and I hope you enjoy this theme. I've worked extremely hard on this and by far it was the most challenging and time consuming project I've ever made!
Rain
This is Rain, an LG Home+ theme for your LG G8, LG V40, LG V50 running Android 9. This theme is a premium quality theme like no other Home theme+. What you see is what you get and that is quality and attention to details! Rain is a dark theme with some bright gradient accents throughout. The Dark Notifications compliment the ui and battery life! The app icons have a slight gradient to them, with some more noticeable than others. This theme does not support adaptive icons as some of the key features of this theme are blocked by enabling the adaptive icons. If you'd prefer adaptive you will need to use a third party launcher like Hyperion or Nova.

To apply the theme simply go into settings/display and select themes. From there select Rain, and push apply! then reboot and then reapply the theme again. It's a bit more in depth than other themes but given the complexity of this premium theme it is required for all elements to be themed properly. Also it is not recommended to "Hide the second screen/notch"'. This may cause some system apps to look odd.
That's it! Simple, easy and quick.
This theme is also meant to run at the highest resolution, with the lowest stock setting for the actual display size. Larger sizes may cause some elements to look slightly off. If this happens please lower the display sizes of the iconography. Also do not hide the notch. That may cause some things to look weird! No fix for that if you do!
If you wish to utilize the seamless wallpapers please install these two apps. Then reapply the theme and you will be able to select them

You bet man! Version 1 should be pretty solid. I'll probably find (or you guys will) a fee things I either forgot to fix it didn't know about but I haven't found anything major yet!
I wanted to get this out though so people would stop trying the GUY version and crashing their system UI! Then my next dark project can get going.
Looove your dark themes with plenty colors
Was a sad moment when I couldn't use your v20 themes (paid for) on this phone, but hay, who said life would be easy
Is it possible to implement the choice to put mixed colors also on the notification/quick menu icons, like in settings?
Keep up the good work

Unfortunately the LG theme system does not have the ability to add something like a users choice of accents. It's an all or nothing thing
Overall, excellent theme, your themes are still my favorite. Found a couple of things. In the stock messaging app, the accents are gold instead of blue. And the navbar is dark on dark in Gmail and chrome. Over than that, it's awesome.

Regarding the navbar did you reboot after you applied the theme and did you manually change it to dark in settings (that needs to happen). I was definitely having that issue as well but fixed it. Hopefully I didn't mess up and upload the wrong app to Google play. Let me know and if I did I can fix that after work
And if you can please email me pics of the msg app. I don't have it on my phone so idk what I can do about it if anything at all

Yes I rebooted and reset the navbar buttons to dark (I had to change it to something else and back). I have rebooted several times since. It seems to be only some Google apps that are effected. I am sending you screen shots now.

No worries, I have the AT&T variant. I am probably 1 of 5 people that use the stock messaging app...I usually use a third party, but I have been using this one so far, it's not bad (I guess...lol).

Wipe cash partition, every time when you want update...i have same problem and don want to do factory reset...
samsung pushed really an buggy update to users so that they can stop asking about pie timeframe. After updating to Pie s9 is really useless.

Factory reset seems like a huge risk now.I mean what if that doesn't fix the problem and u ll be stuck with a useless phone where u cant download any apps or do anything
Maybe you habe disabled any important System-App for installation. Try to enable all apps and install the Updates again
Put it into battery saving mode...then put it back to normal mode...that usually fixes the no update to playstore ect
so far cleared cache, removed account, still can't seem to update preloaded samsung apps from the galaxy apps store (yes, cleared the app data as well). Google Play Store working fine though...
Update: Seems it was my work wifi, worked at home. Weird
Anyone know how to change the transition effects on the s9+ after the pie update?
Driving me insane trying to find it.
All i've found is a setting to turn it on & off again in biometrics settings! I still can't change what style i want? Any help with this would be very welcomed please.
Also, i want to change the default light to dark theme setting, but it's telling me i can't change it whilst i have a theme on from the theme store! How dumb is that! Good one samsung! I can only have a dark settings theme, without using a theme from your store!! How stupid!!
Anyone got a solution/way round these settings, please comment.

This part actually makes sense. The default theme is probably built so that it can change between both light and dark. Specifically built themes would not have a need for this functionality as the theme is already built the way the themer wanted it to look.

Yes i get that, but It's the "night mode" setting that chages the notifications and settings background, from light to dark that i want to keep dark, when i have a theme from the store set.
I have only managed to find one theme in the store that lets me keep the night mode active. But i am not that keen on it. Just was hoping there was a way to keep the night mode atvive when a theme was set.
Do you know where the transition settings are on pie at all? Want to change the style, but now can't find the setting?

Just apply the default theme and dark mode switch activates. Guess it's not compatible due to Google/Samsung implementation

Thank you for your reply, yes i have noticed that i can change it to dark node ONLY when set to the default theme.
Seems a little silly really, why put that option there & give you the option of changing the theme as well, only to discover, it wont work with a chosen theme!
Like i mentioned, there is one theme i have found that works with night mode, but i'm not to keen on it.
Shame!
Ok so has anyone found the page transition settings yet?
Customisation is key to Android, as everyone knows, but when you are limited to only certain customisations, it kinda defeates the object!?
