Stock S8 Screensaver on the Note 8 - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

The blue S8 and S8+ always had this screensaver applied in retail stores and promotional mateerial. I have tried the screensaver option on my Note 8, I can only find the option to have a photo frame or a cascade of colours.
Could anyone please tell me where can I find this blue stock screen saver and how to apply it on my Note 8.
Thank you

Screen Off Memo Yellow Ink vs White Ink

Hey my fellow Note9ners,
I realized that if we use the yellow ink for screen off memo and save it, inside samsung notes the white background makes the yellow memo super hard to view.
But if we use white ink for screen off memo, the memo auto invert to black color when inside samsung notes.
I think this makes yellow ink looks like a gimmick
Is there a way to make samsung notes in black background as default?
Not that I've found.
I personally don't care for the yellow anyways, would still love to trade the ugly pen for a black or silver one, but at first I tried to do like you asked and make it so Notes had a black background when saved from screen off memo. No luck. So I just use the white pen color, no biggie since this is how it worked in the past and I usually just jot my note real quick and turn the phone back off.
Think Samsung would have figured this out themselves while making the phone since they went through the trouble of having the pen color match the writing.

Um... but you can also set Notes to save Off Screen notes in black "ink" instead of yellow. So you write yellow on the screen, but it saves as black.

Where do you set that? I've looked in Notes and the S Pen settings, but can't find it.

I don't have that option. I have the T-Mo phone, and I am on the latest update.

OK, it's a Duh! If you turn off the signature color in the S Pen settings, the option to save in black disappears in the Samsung Note settings.
Settings/advanced features/s pen/screen off memo.
You can always make it blue!

This solves my question! At least I can use yellow ink during screen off, and the written notes still visible in Samsung Notes.
Thanks a lot!!
I grabbed the purple one cause I didn't like the clashing colors of the blue and yellow.
The lavender purple color is easy to read on the white memos.
However, my daughter loves the fact that my phone has a drawing utensil and we both wish Samsung just added a color picker and thickness and other brushes.

yes, looks like a limitation of One UI, I had the same problem, but I use this app to make my own dark themes, is great and is free (you can donate as I did).
if you have any question I can help you, I've been using the app a lot.

Weird. For my is deep black. Maybe you need to adjust the options in theme galaxy. Or here is my project of theme galaxy which is pitch black. Tell me how it goes
Edit. I can't upload the project file. If you want it send me DM
The dark mode on my N950N is pitch black. Maybe it is your screen protector that needs cleaning

N950F

I have attached the apk file i created, for anyones use if interested..
The project file if anyone needs it..

Share MIUI 11 Home Screen (Weather Widget)

As you can mix and match themes to get the best result. MIUI 11 themes availability are region dependent. This means changing region can unlock themes for that region. Good news is once you download a theme changing region will not remove it.
Share here Homescreen screenshot. [mention region for theme]
To apply a specific weather widget (without changing anything else)
=> Open theme app.
=> My Page
=> Select a theme
=>check "homescreen", uncheck all others
=> apply
HTC style widget
Theme "Dark RUS" by Zlyden
region Indonesia
Htc Syle Black Color with seconds animation
Theme => Dark Rhyme by man
region Indonesia, India
Totally confused and really need some help
Hi there,
So, I came across this thread because I was looking for the way to get a certain feature on my Redmi Note 8. On several models of Android phones, I have seen that people get real live weather conditions on their lock screen or home screen. So, for example, when it's raining, it shows actual rain falling down. When it's thundering and lightning out, it shows lightning flashes on the screen.
Does anyone have any idea how I can get this feature on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 8?
I would be so forever grateful if anyone could pass on what they know. Thanks so much.
I love simple homescreen.

through a live wallpaper from the play store perhaps, there isnt any built in feature for that in the Note 8.
if you search about there should be some threads on workarounds to apply the live wallpaper on the MIUI lock screen too afaik.
