Messages problem after upgrade to Pie - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I having a strange problem after upgrading to Pie. In the message app no names appear, because the font is white and so is the background ? Also in a conversation normally if you click a message you got a menu, this is also totally white.... See pictures. Anybody have the same problem?

I have to have night mode on

You'll have to resort back to the default Samsung theme with there terrible icons for it to work properly, until they can get a theme that will work for pie, hopefully these themes will get fixed because I'm not a fan of the default icons

Mine works as it should. Night mode on or off, stock icons or Stealth icon pack. But, yeah, themes and night mode don't get along yet. AT&T CSAA.

Theme for DG's COG-b9 and up 11/02/10 CMR flashable w/UPDATED-B2.3

UPDATED for the latest cog 2.3b3-its the last attachment(marked as 23b3) make sure you download the version that you are running or it will cause problems. Changed the circle batt in this version to the normal smooth green circle instead of the one shown. i think it matches a little better
Updated to work with Cog-2.3B-make sure you download the right one. The second attachment with 23b2 at the end is (obviously) for Cognition 2.3B2
The first attachment with no version at the end of the file name is for those who havent upgraded and are still on the older cog B9.
Im using a custom boot animation that matches this theme pretty well. It is the first one in this thread-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696193
Just got done making this theme for the captivate. This is a pretty full theme, also includes evo black bar, circle batt, and a nice notification pull down.
Its compatible with any cognition with the extended power options but the most recent 9.1.3 was the framework that was modified.
This took forever to finally finish.
Just put this on your internal SD and flash with clockwork. Will not wipe anything.
*Just fixed the icons in the power menu(airplane & silent)*
credit to DG for the rom this goes to
credit to fightspit for the circle battery
credit goes to faster3200 for a lot of the original images.
Looks nice! I'd love to try it out but I'm firmly of the belief that if it ain't broke don't fix it. I won't be messing with my phone again til something serious happens.
looks good. gonna backup and test it out
Love this man, get it working for DocRambone's v7 JPO rom too if it's possible
I like the looks of this better then any other theme so far.
Nicely done just did it to try it out worked perfectly

However, the icons on my lower bar didn't change. How do I get them to look like yours? e.g. mail, browser, apps...

did you try rebooting or anything. its really just modifying the images in framework file, all the other files(even the xml's) in the framework folder are exactly the same.
the only reason i say that is because i have 2 captivates, and every once in a while its like there stuck. sometimes its when going from wifi to 3g and sometimes its just
random and cycling airplane mode will fix it if not then a reboot does.
hey guys this is my very first time posting on this forum i have a captivate rooted and running cog 9.1.3 and just tried your theme and everything started to force close on me any idea what might have went wrong, thanks

never mind reinstalled and all is well good work.
Love the theme, one little problem, I can't see the clock, it's the same black as the status bar? Any thoughts? Should I just try reflashing?

Flashed a different theme then came back to this one, everything works great now.
works with the newest v2.3b cognition. no problems so far.
On reboot after install, phone seems to be stuck on the cognition splash screen, vibrating like something is force closing every 5 seconds or so. Any ideas? I am on cog 2.3b.

Overlay Thread - Verizon s8+

For those who have not headed over to the overlay post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/themes/substratum-inversion-ui-overlay-overlays-t3604341
There are some cool things going on with themes and overlays. Some non-rooted methods are allowing us to change system icons, colors etc. Not eveything has been found yet so please be patient..
Here are a few of my additions. I do not take credit for making any of these other than changing the colors. A lot of these have been made by people in the original post and if you like their work please post up a thanks or donate to them.
When installing, pay attention to the package name if you wish to uninstall. Uninstall via app manager.

Can I ask what Samsung theme your using?
red neon in samsung store
Here is a lil easier to read notifications, make them red..
Also make sure to re apply these apks after any theme application or updates.
ars0n i LOVE the red work you've done and REALLY wanna put it on my phone...but the files you've posted...ive installed and tried to use before and once rebooted..the only thing that would show up is the tab to access the edge screen and i wasnt even able to use that..my point in this ramble...is there something im doing wrong? do you need to be on the stock (Out of the box theme) in order to use these?
try the red neon theme, you should be able to download 1 0 min trial.
Can I ask if you have any other kind of theme or oer lays installed? Navbar or status bar mods/apks?
I am on stock verizon rom that came with phone. And on the newest update and the overlays still work (had to reinstall).
I'm on stock Verizon ROM. And no other mods installed. Was just hoping to get this to work without having to factory data reset again if it doesn't...
Do one at a time for me if you can and let me know.. I am using the verizon framework for the s8+ but I am also on the newest update, so not sure if that matters or not.
I only use the newest syustemui RED ON RED with the blackred in call UI, just 2 apks plus the neon red theme. Install the theme first, then do the apks and reboot and let me know!
Ok. I am on the latest update as well. I think where I went wrong easier installed all the files you posted and also didn't have the theme installed
Is the theme which made your status bar icons red or was it one if the overlays?
the system icons and red nav apk should do it. The battery is also red now.

Alright thanks, I just needed to know because I'm gonna try and edit it to make it blue instead so it matches my theme.
Great work!
I wish my S8+ was rooted?

Red nav on home screen has to be done by enabling immersive mode.
For the red batt, try the second system APK i posted a few posts down.

Icons changed after Oreo update

I just got my update. How do i remove the while fill-in around all my icons?
Thanks.
Weirdly, i also cannot slide down the notifications/quick settings panel without the navigation bar sliding up as well.

There is an option in settings called icon frame, you should tick Icons only and your problem is resolved

Are you using the stock Samsung launcher?
I've uninstalled Nova (as I had it installed but I wasn't using it), but the option is still greyed out.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated as it's bugging me lol.
Weird.. I have the option available to me, but whether I click icons only, or select the other option, doesn't make any difference, it still shows with the ugly white border :S
Google and their insane obsession with the color white continues in Oreo. SMH.

Force the use of legacy icons in any compatible launcher. Nova has it once you enable Labs.

Same problem with me, you found a solution yet bro?
Same here after i updated to oreo the option Icons frames>Icons only it's bugged and isn't working.
Icon frame problem s7 edge oreo
I received oreo today and i am facing the same problem. Doesn't matter whether i choose with frame or without frame, the icons appear with frame. Did anyone's problem resolved or it still exists?
This is one of the reasons I hate Oreo. Mandatory adaptive icons.

Seems even many of the Samsung themes in the theme store do not fully support Pie. After finding a dark theme that I liked and that actually worked on Pie, I ended up just switching to the default theme and turning on night mode (you can't use night mode if you're using a theme). I did this because some elements were not impacted by the theme like they used to be in the past (the default email client specifically in my case).
I'm on at&t and still no update

No. Night Mode is not inverting the colors. Its a dark theme.

No, it only darkens some aspects of the UI for settings, notifications, and some of the stock apps such as the dialer, stock email app, etc. Even the content in those apps (for example a photo in the body of the email) are unaffected.

Guess I should have tried it before now, I just always assumed it would invert the photos too. Thanks for the answers! :good:

Updated to Pie just know, pretty dope!

Just got it today. Adaptive Battery is a good thing. Changing time from right to left is a stupid thing.
Recent Apps is now similar to iPhone - swipe away. Not as efficient as the old way where all the open apps were stacked, you could see them all at once, and you could quickly hit the X on each app you wanted to close.
Do they actually do any usability testing when they change things like this? Sheesh!

MIUI 12 - Super Wallpaper Glitch

Hi,
Today got MIUI 12 Update 12.0.1 but unfortunately have problems setting Super Wallpaper.
When I press wallpapers it automatically diverts to Themes/Wallpaper app
There was one exception, when I rebooted and pressed wallpapers it gave me an option of setting Super Wallpaper I managed to set it to Mars but after that same thing. I press wallpaper it goes directly to official Themes app.
Anyone experiencing this kind of glitch?
P.S. Also anyone know how I set clean factory miui theme?

You can use Super Wallpapers In the Themes App by going to your profile (Person Icon in the bottom) -> Wallpapers -> SuperWallpapers.
For me, it always fails to download. But maybe it works for you.

I'm in 12.0.1.0 (QFAEUXM). I'm located in Argentina. I confirm that I could access Super Wallpaper from my profile in the Themes application. I downoaded Earth and applied it successfully. However, only Earth and Mars are available.

This is weird. Are you saying that you see only in grey the wallpaper? I confirm that I don't have this issue. Try disabling anti-flicker mode if it's enabled and play with the colours settings. Is it the same after a reboot?
