Samsung App Themes - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Dis

Anybody else disgusted with the lack of options in the Samsung keyboard and messages apps? Off to the theme store, I guess!

Seriously, look at these background choices! Chat bubble selections seem to have completely vanished on the Note 8! Who was this app designed for?

Look at this keyboard crap! Am I missing something?

Android keyboards are an interesting handicap for me. I have an iPhone 6 for work and NEVER have a problem typing on it. Android, not so much. I'm not sure if it is the way auto-correct works or just something about the layout but I can't seem to type a word on my Note (or the LG V20 before that) without messing up at least one letter. I keep thinking about trying different keyboards but then I get lazy and just deal with it.
Maybe I will give it another go with the 8.
FWIW

Try mood messenger for messages, lots of things to customize, try swype keyboard lots of things to customize too. Since htc hd2 days i never typed, i just swyped on my keyboard, even my 13 year old used swype since i gave her my note 2 5 years ago, now on her note 5. Its just my wife is stubborn to learn how to swype. ?

I hate them as well. Went right to the theme store and downloaded some pretty decent themes.

Sucks that Samsung hasn't figured out hour to them third party apps yet and system stuff a bit better

That's another thing, I'm having trouble finding just the right theme.
EDIT: Can you use a theme already purchase for the Note 7? I've been happy with that one, don't know Samsung's policy on that. It's showing up on the My Themes page in the 7 but not on the 8. Maybe when I do SmartSwitch.

Yes all themes purchased can buy used from the theme store. The theme does need to be updated for a few differences. You'll just get a message some stuff won't work.

I looked on my Note 7 to get the exact name and searched it. I was able to download it without paying again which is good. I just thought all this was seamless and what I bought before would show up once I signed into my Sammy account.

I went back to Sammy keyboard because of scaling issues on Swype. An update placed the symbols there by default on the Sammy keyboard. As for the theme, my gripe was that there was only that ugly 'high contrast as an option! I'm using a theme from the theme store to covet that up.

That is useless. It replaces words such as 'at' after you have typed them and pressed space with ones like 'or' or 'now' it's crazy!
This option is not in US phones has something to do with apples law suit against Samsung for autocorrect. I use swiftkey because of this, works great.

thats true, does swiftkey have auto-correct and dedicated number row?

what was the samsung thinking with no autocorrect lol
No numbers row but auto correct works well. I had heard Samsung removed it on US versions cause of Apple. Kii has a paid one with numbers row and autocorrect with swype feature but the swype freezes some

[Q] New OTA Keyboard

Soooooooo. I downloaded the new OTA for my verizon note 3. I think the verizon cloud is kind of cool considering I've accidentally deleted my camera folder twice (oops) However, one thing I don't like is the change in color in the keyboard. It isn't white/grey anymore and it depresses me. I want the old keyboard back. Is there any way to get it back?
Find one from one of the Roms out there that still have the white keyboard and install it. You may have to move to system/app which ota??? Mj7, mi9?, something new?

I would assume you could pull the apk out of the stock rooted mj7 rom. just use 7zip to pull apk out. I would download a free keyboard off the playstore as a backup in case for some reason it doesn't work, but no reason it shouldn't.

I like the new (old old) dark theme but i use Swiftkey anyway. I don't like that the Samsung Keyboard doesn't allow to modify the press and hold delay.
I love that Swiftkey allows a quick right or left drag on the period key to get exclamation or question mark without having to wait for press and hold.

Faster TouchWiz?

So is there any improvement in the latest touchwiz? Any opinion from S5 users? And maybe for those who had the chance to see a Note 4 from close ?
Im in S3 and I dont like the touchwiz laggy and problematic as hell. I have a fear to buy samsung device again. I am thinking of the note 4 just because of the feature to capture images and transform them in editable text.
But im worried about the touchwiz..
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Free mobile app
Have you considered trying a different launcher? Touchwiz is very resource-intensive, but many of the third-party launchers are very quick. I'm using Google Now launcher on my Note 2, and it still flies. It will make your S3 much faster, anyway.
You could do the same thing with the Note 4, but you'd likely lose some of the S-Pen functionality.

Fighting with myself over TouchWiz
I've been using alternate launchers for a long time. Was on Go Launcher for most time, but relatively recently I've moved to Noval Launcher, as it has caught up with Go Launcher features, and it seems that Go was a bit buggy in more recent releases.
All that being said, I am presuming at this point that I may want to actually utilize some of the features that TW offers, and won't be ther on other launchers. On the other hand, I too fear lag/performance issues, and loss of features in Nova that I am so accustomed to.
Of course, I suppose I need to get the phone in my hands first before worrying about TW.
You can replace the dialer by simply installing another one from the store. But when someone calls you, you will be faced with a lag followed by a black screen with status bar at top and then BOOM! The laggy samsung phone app (Don't worry your phone didn't blow up
---------- Post added at 01:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:00 PM ----------
About the improved TW on S5, I have a S3 phone rooted with QS ROM installed and Boeffla 6.1 beta4 linaro installed and a S5 transformation pack supported by QS.
I think finally Samsh*t thought about locking the launcher, phone app in memory. That makes TW a bit faster. Opening the phone app now is faster and the lag is gone. Also switching to contacts from the phone app is lagless. But there are still some micro lags in launching an app.
Hope that I helped you with that.

New TouchWiz UI for Marshmallow users, removes Sprint branding (no root)

Some of you may have seen this:
http://www.xda-developers.com/samsu...iz-is-a-ui-giant-leap-forward-two-steps-back/
Turns out it appears to work for the Note 4 Marshmellow users as well. I've been using it for only a little bit, one change I noticed is that it removes the Sprint branding in the upper left without requiring root. I searched for the app in Galaxy Apps, it wasn't available there, but you can download the apk attached to this post
The recent apps feature is pretty terrible, but it's something different you guys can try.
EDIT: I tried this with the fingerprint scanner, it made me not able to get past the lock screen, all I saw was a blank wallpaper. I guess it works on the Note 4 but not optimized for it. I was able to finally get past it by clicking on the notifications, messing with the settings on GoodLock, causing it to crash, and then my phone rebooted with it uninstalled.
This is interesting. I'm testing it out to see how it goes. Can you say anything about battery life compared to without it?

CAREFUL!! I just set up finger print scanner with this to see how it functions, now I can't get past the lock screen, all I see is my wallpaper, even in safe mode, I might have to do a hard reset :\
Edit: finally got past the fingerprint scanner after the app crashed and made my phone reboot, and then gave me the option to type in the password instead. It worked great prior to setting that portion up though, so mixed feelings about it so far.

it simply disables your lockscreen. I have seen it and for some time, had it, but no longer thanks to a goofed internalsd format ;(

not really imo, apart from letting you group notifications and setting alerts for them, and making the notification pull down menu look closer to stock android.
Edit: I take that back. When you take a screenshot now it comes up with 3 options, more/share/crop. If you hit more, it lets you take a scrolling screenshot without having to use the s-pen.

Alright, well, I jumped back on board to see if I could make this work for me. What I did was install the APK as usual and then used TB to delete the system UI (launcher). Since I use NOVA anyway, I also deleted TouchWiz and TouchWiz Easy crap... This setup has me running faster and with better battery life than ever before! Can't wait for a kernel for this MM situation!

Since I use NOVA anyway, I also deleted TouchWiz and TouchWiz Easy crap... This setup has me running faster and with better battery life than ever before! Can't wait for a kernel for this MM situation!

That's crazy that you deleted TouchWiz, didn't even know that was possible lol, hopefully you don't run into any issues, because I had it crash once which caused it to just uninstall itself from my phone.
Good Lock updated with some gesture controls (Which I have yet to test) and bug fixes.

Is this easy to revert back to standard UI if I don't like it?

Edit: I'll answer my own q, there is an uninstall option in the settings.
This actually seems pretty nice, I appreciate the chance from the same old Samsung noti dropdown.
I am missing the wifi calling on quick settings already, however.
Three options in the settings. Uninstall is one of them
