I have an issue that is bugging me like crazy. I apply a theme and everything stays that way until I reboot, where it reverts back to a previous theme that I deleted a long time ago! It even does this if I choose the default theme.
I tried re-installing the offending theme and then deleting it, as I thought maybe there was something left behind in a cache. But no luck.
Does anyone know exactly where the theme files are stored on the device? Or has anyone else had this issue? It's a real pain re-applying the theme every time I reboot.
.
My S6 edge does the same but it reverts to the default theme.

Hi,
I made a mistake while doing the TouchWizmod and deleted the original TouchWiz data..
Now i have a blackscreen with the notification bar..
I fixed it with installing LauncherPro via Adb.
Now i can see something but when i go to Homescreen swichter it says not determined yet..
I already made a factory reset.
I'm thinking about flashing my SGS via Kies with reghack but I'm not sure..
Can anyone help me restoring the TouchWizdata?
Thanks.
Deleting the TWlauncher's data will only cause TWlauncher to recreate that data, it's not big problem.
You're actually describing a correct behaviour in the second part of your post - having installed launcher pro the phone now needs to know which app (TW launcher or launcher pro) to use as default; that's why it's asking you after reboot.
To fix TW launcher, pick that as the default app and leave it to recreate it's data - it should only take about 30 seconds or so to revert to the default TW layout; plus then maybe another 30 seconds or so to rebuild your app list when you click on applications.
Twlauncher is not in the list,so I cant pick it.
And it still says not determined yet.
Even after picking Launcher Pro..
Any Suggestions?
After i downloaded adb launcher i can pick Launcher Pro as default.
But i still need TW.
Pls help
In System/app do you have a file called TouchWiz30Launcher.apk?
No,I already said it.
I deleted this file =/.
To be sure i searched for this file.
I just got TouchWiz30Launcher.odex
Find TouchWiz30Launcher.apk here on the forums. There's a nice patched one with some good improvements you might want to try.
Also, this is not Development. Thread reported.

No, you said you deleted the data but what you deleted is the launcher itself.
So i can take the moded one,and put it in system/app and everything is fine?
Or do i have to follow an instruction
Pls help x.x

Hi,
i got my Optimux 2x speed yesterday.
While playing suddenly my browser is not starting up. it crashes as soon as i press the icon.
see youtube movie for similar problem:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-jCHPJpTiE
I tried a factory reset, cleared the cache. but still is crashing.
anybody an idea how to fix it?
Maybe the original LG Rom wasnt flashed properly.
If even with factory reset it's still there, its supporting this theory.
The only solution I see is replacing for new one or wait for Gingerbread/Custom ROMs here on XDA.

(sorry for my poor english)
I tried the LauncherPro, and also here it is crashing. same message like before.
Is there no option to completely overwrite the firmware? just like a HTC telephone?
Try to clear data and cache for the browser via settings > applications and see if that helps.

Read here about apk. You have to copy apk file to /system/app with rootexplorer
I downloaded the browser.apk. just renamed the zip file to apk.
with super manager and root I copied the browser.apk file into the system/app folder.
and everything is working like a charm!
now quickly make a backup before it is not working again.
thanks!!!
edit:
found a small problem.
The icon of the browser is now located at the downloaded apps in the programs menu. and has the blue (N) in the icon. how can i remove the blue (N) from the (N)ew program.
Not really sure,
But when you use titanium backup you can freeze and defreeze a program after that he'll put it back in the orginal folder (system tools). That worked for me at least
it fixed the problem with the browser icon!
now only the superuser icon has a blue N. but this one is not in the titanium backup list.
hi,
i can't remove the original Browser Bookmarks, vodafone, chat .... I don't know , please help me!
Well, I was using system theme on my device, CM10/10.1 and never had no problem. Then one day I was searching for themes and I've found a TouchWiz 5 theme. Applied it (shows confirmation for "missing assets") and all worked fine. Was using it for weeks.
Now I want to go back to the system theme, but everytime I go to the mainscreen (I'm using Trebuchet Launcher, 1.0), Trebuchet stops working. I've already tried reflashing ROM, rebooting but nothing. Only happens when using system theme, and all started after applying the TouchWiz theme.
IS there a way to fix it? Or maybe someone make a .apk for the System Theme so I can use it?
Actually any other theme except for TouchWiz 5 will make Trebuchet crash
Try clear data in trebuchet

Didn't work. Had to make a backup of Trebuchet in my tablet and restore it on my phone.

did you reboot after changing the theme?
also reboot if you change back to system theme.
Same applies in my case. I followed the steps after installing the theme, set default theme, reboot, set thouchwiz 5 theme, reboot, clean data in Trebuchet. But Trebuchet keeps crashing and graphics portions of the theme flash/flicker. The phone is close to unusable. Barely got into menu and set the default theme back.
I'm baffled by how many people on Google Play say this theme works well on their phones. I'm wondering what they do differently...
So I've installed Android Revolution HD 3.2 GE and I see where the messaging app doesn't have popups and such like the CM Mms.apk does. I deleted the Mms.apk from system and replaced with the CM one and after reboot it replaces it back with the factory apk. Last night I was able to get it to stick (had to factory reset for another reason) and I'm doing the same thing now so I'm not sure what the issue is.
While getting ready to post this, I was attempting again and this time after reboot the Mms.apk is in the system folder (not sure which one) but the app is missing from the app drawer. So I just factory reset.
I'm pretty bent on getting this popup version to work. I downloaded an app called Popup which was nice, but it was consuming way too much battery.
Thank you for any help.

I'm assuming the ROM has r/w protection disabled (Where anything done is reverted)? If so, have you deleted the MMS.apk from system/app, put the CM mms.apk in system/app, set the correct permissions at rw-r--r-- and rebooted?

I remember once before it prompted me to change to rw-r-r-- and it hasn't been doing that now. I set it myself just now after copying the apk and it still replaced it after reboot.
Edit: to clarify, yes I did as you specify. Not sure if it matters, but in the rom tweaks during install there is an option for "Improe EXT4 Performance: Enable data_writeback for all paritions". Would this being checked/unchecked make a difference?
Edit 2: I installed with and without it checked and it didn't make a difference.
Followed instructions in this thread, just to try some things and it still resets back to the factory mms.apk. Just updating on what I've tried.

lulz I'm about to flash a different rom. The app you showed me doesn't keep the changes. It reboots and everything is switched back to off and no changes are kept. I blame the rom/system, not the app itself because others in the thread all seem to be fine.
Edit: I think i'm editing every post.... I tried doing the AOSP Browser install with the app, and even that didn't stick. Said "android is upgrading" upon restart but nope...
Installed Insert Coin and it works now. Thanks for the assistance!
I am running 11-20140803-Nightly-hummingbird & wallpaper disappears after going from Portrait to landscape mode & the only way to setup the wallpaper I have to reboot.
Every once in awhile I will get a System UI stopped message too.
After the wallpaper disappears system seems to really lag.
I figured maybe my system was getting all junked up due to so many updates I have done since 10.1 days, so I did a system reset with CWM & figured I would start over.
After installing the nightly mentioned above & gapps rebooted & noticed all the folders were still there from before, do these not get wiped when doing a system reset?
Any suggestions on what to do with the issue I am having & how do you completely wipe the system to start over?
This is getting a bit frustrating.
Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated
Thank you
You don't really want to completely wipe everything - do not wipe emmc internal storage. Only data, dalvic, cache is necessary.
Don't know what folders your referring to. Folders on internal storage will stay. Any other folders in the rom sections that were wiped will be repopulated upon flashing a rom.
The wallpaper issue sounds like a bug in cm. Try the m9 build. I use m9 and have not seen that problem, not with m9 and not with m8.
I have no idea what you install on it, but it could also be an app your installing that is breaking things.
Anytime you want to start fresh do a full recovery backup in the recovery so you can go right back to exactly how you had it if a new rom install doesn't fix your problem instead of wasting time.
Problem solved
It appears it was due to newest beta of Apex Pro that I was using. I installed one of my backups of Apex through Titanium Pro just to see if that was the issue & by golly I think it was.
Seemed like every time I would rotate my screen the wallpaper went Poof!
Solution for wallpaper issue
Especially this problem is found in cm11 snapshot M9 M10etc. But M11 has no issues. I am using m11 since its realse and absulotely no wallpaper issue has been encountered. If you are using 3 party launcher to set wallpaper the it is my request to use default system wallpaper tool to change wallpaper. And thats it.
