Huawei P9 Plus - cannot download new themes - Huawei P9 Questions & Answers

Hi Guys,
Cannot find an answer anywhere else so seeing if someone here has any tips.
I've downloaded some new themes in the themes app before, I can change between the themes no problem.
but when I find new themes in the 'themes' app and click on download it shows 'downloading' for about 1/2 second and back to 'download' for you to click again... this happens on all themes, cannot download any new ones at all.
I have stock launcher, never had any other launchers installed. I went into 'apps' in settings and cleared data/cache for the 'themes' app but this didn't help. I also made sure I have space on device, which I have plenty of.
Any tips would be appreciated.
I use the phone for work thus don't really want to wipe it clean as would have to set up work items again... no other problems with device at all.
Thanks in advance!

[Q] Market doesn't see installed all my apps, only a few ones.

Hi,
I'm using Amon Recovery and I flashed LeoFroyo.
Everything was working fine, but I had the bad idea to wipe dalvik-cache under recovery when I installed another kernel (I had dalvik on my SD).
When I rebooted, looks like dalvik was back on internal and Google restored my apps again.
Only problem is now I only Gmaps, Google Earth and Urban Spoon (go figure) under downloads in the Market.
I tried Market Doctor under Titanium, fix permissions both in spare parts and under RA and tried to clear cache/data of the Market app itself.
Any ideas ?
Thank you in advance for the help!
What about trying a version tracker such as aTrackDog and see if it will detect whats there? I know this will only add them back to your downloads as new versions become available but its a start... hell, you could go through the list and reinstall each app, then it will show up in the market downloads again.
If that doesn't work and you didn't do a nandroid you might just have to reinstall them all again by hand.
Hopefully someone with a little more experience can chime in.
I've been doing quite a lot of farking around today with a new rom, and me completely not understanding what it is I'm really supposed to do vs not supposed to do, I've wiped a few times.
This last time I found the Market only saw my paid apps, no others, but it seemed like as soon as I launched AppBrain, the market showed all of my apps again! Play around, see if you can verify that helps.
It just appeared *suddenly*.
I have no explanation but I guess I'm good now!
Thanks guys anyway

fascinate clock app

Can anyone post up the clock API that comes on fascinate...like the alarm app.
com.sec.android.app.clockpackage.ClockPackage would be the answer you're looking for. This is the stock clock app, and upon opening it defaults to the alarm page. Heh, you making your own clock too?
yessir, ty
App not installed messege!
Thanks a lot! I've been looking for this app for a while. I accidentaly deleted this app after I rooted my new phone for the first time in my life (big mistake). I was able to re-install other pre-installed apps that i deleted accidentaly. However, for some reason, I can NOT install the clock apk and the Info Alarm apk. Im getting a "Application not Installed" messege when i try to install them!!
I've search the web for 3 hours and I found nothing! what's wrong with my phone? some people said that I might have those apps already installed on the phone. But I looked for them, and they are not installed on the phone. Dont know what else to do.
I need some help!
Just grab it out of ROM manager. SonofSkywalker's
blackhole ROM has it as a standalone option that you can simply flash onto any deodexed rom. Also, learn to use google modifiers.

[Q] P970 with Marvel v11 ROM becomes slow

AS the title says, phone has become really slow. Previously had no problems.
I did change the CPU settings in ROM management toolbox which seems to me to be the culprit, i changed it back but the phone is still really slow at loading app icons on homescreen and in app drawer.
I have reset permissions, scanned for viruses, cleared cache, etc. But still slow.
Anyone an idea what to do besides boot into recovery and resinstall Marvel? or is that really the best way????
Cheers in advance.

Did you want to try the Marvel 12 Beta?

Install, do a factory reset, set the governor, and see if it does the trick.
I recommend installing the Xperia Launcher 2.05b. Hopefully Tantrums will be including this in v12 Final:

Your issue may also be related to a specific app you've installed. I ran into issues with a particular app after an automatic upgrade, and it took me a while to figure out the culprit. I contacted the developer and he was quick to fix the issue, but this stuff does happen. Many times you can figure out what's going on by reading the "1-star" reviews for your installed apps on the Play Store. I would message the developer if you find something.
Cheers.
I was thinking of installing v12, but thought id wait until it was officially released.
I guess i will uninstall all apps, to see if it makes a difference, then if not i guess i will reinstall v11 for now.
Actually, thats just too slow, i will ust reinstall v11 ROM.
Thanks.

If you are on Marvel11 and want to reinstall Marvel11 cause you want to change anything in the settings or just cause there did anything go wrong just reboot to recovery and start the Aroma install package of Marvel11 without any whippe at all, that's all, should fix everything.

Yea thats what i did. All was ok.
but then i started to clean up files on my phone. I think i deleted some files i should not have and now i have a phone that i cant enter into recovery mode. It just boots up and shows the coloured X from the X-peria bootloader (for some reason cos i didnt install it) asks for SIM unlock, which i do, but it only shows a handful of apps, standard ones i imagine, but no fast rebbot, or ROM toolbox, or CWM app. So then how do i now enter recovery??????
AHHHHHHHH!!!!! LOL
Ah i found a possible way out of this conundrum i found myself in i think
i had access to play store, so as i couldnt see ROM toolbox in apps, i redownloaded it so i could enter recovery mode.
So that i have done, now i just need to see what i have when the phone has rebooted, but i think that will have worked.
I think i must have deleted the data files or something when cleaning up the phone :/
Yea. looks like i have to reinstall all apps. No biggy then. Phew!!
Just a little reminder: If you use Windows 'adb reboot recovery' will do the trick too.

Yea, im on mac, so ncd.
OK so now my process.com android.mms keeps closing on me, effectively i have no MMS.
Anyone a solution?
I have reset Darvik Cache and normal cache. Fixed permissions. Uninstalled the app through ROM toolbox, then reinstalled the ROM. Still no joy,MMS just will not run.
Ideas?
Or should i just install Marvel v12?

A fresh install with v12 Beta will take less time than you've already spent. Just have your additional apps (outside the Play Store) in a folder on the SD card.

Should i preform a factory reset as well? I ask because i am on Mac, so performing any procedures where i need to hook up the phone to a computer, although not impossible, is a bit of a task. Will installing Marvel v12 actually fix the issue in itself?????
I have actually installed Go SMS Pro and Handcent, which work in terms of being able to retrieve MMS, but it hasnt done anything to fix the stock/Optimus G MMS app.
Hehe, I should install Marvel 12 i know, I am just holding back a bit.

I do a full factory reset after any ROM install.
I use Go SMS too. I liked Pansi soooo much, but the last update continually crashes on my Marvel ICS.
Remind me please, if the full factory reset means i will need a PC to fix anything, or if i can perform a full factory reset and install either Marvel v11 or v12 without needing a computer?

You install the ROM, then you do the factory reset.
The factory reset returns things to a raw ROM state, getting rid of anything you've added since installing the ROM. So yes, it will wipe anything you download from the Play Store. I do it immediately after installing the ROM.
Put Marvel 12 Beta on the SD card (root directory), and any non-Play Store items you'd like to install in a folder on the card.

Apps and rebooting

Alright I just rooted my HTC Desire 510 32-bit yesterday and ever since I did the phone randomly reboots and installs system apps I don't want back onto my phone. I followed the guide closely I found on here step by step I'd like to know what could be causing this issue? Also how can I get it too where the TWRP Theme Manager can do it's thing on my SDCard and where can I find good theme roms and kernels for my phone?

I don't know anything about TWRP Theme Manager.
You can find ROMs and Kernels here, to the right of the Forums tab.
You need to use one of the write protect removed kernels so system apps will not come back. I suggest you leave the system apps alone. I have had force closes when I tried to delete most of them. There are some you can delete with no issues, such as the lockscreen, if you prefer the AOSP one. I also had problems when I tried to integrate updates into /system, especially with the Play Store, Google Play Services, and the Gallery.
You should use Link2SD to free up tons of space. This thread should be very helpful.
I highly suggest for you to read through all of the threads on our phone. You will find some very useful information.

Thank you. I know what system apps that are safe to remove and which aren't I'm a jailbreak freak when it comes to iOS.
I put raptor rom v2 on my virgin phone and I was able to set and save the gsm bands using *#*#info#*#*, but I can't find a proper sized SIM card to test! Phone seems to think it is a gsm phone and keeps wanting to download an international update, that I can't figure out how to install.

Downloading themes. What apps to unfreeze.

I've frozen some apps with Titanium but now I can't seem to be download themes. Can anyone tell me what apps I should unfreeze? Can I even download themes from Samsung if I rooted with PingPongRoot?
Much thanks!
Bad news is that you probably froze Samsung account manager. The only fix is to factory reset your phone, if you did. Check with Google search first, to ensure that a fix hasn't yet been found.
