Just wanted to share a few more details on how I put my themes together. For those of you using GIMP, here is the xcf file for my latest theme. When you open this in GIMP you'll get a better picture of how I put this all together.

http://www.mediafire.com/view/kt61g88at0ry5hg/07_Oct_2017.xcf

So I start with what do I need on my home screen. I need my most used apps, my favorite app folders, my power toggle widget and finally my combined widget for the time, date and storage info. I look at the 12x12 Grid Template and decide where I'm placing all of that.

This is how it looks with the lines so you can see how I managed things:

Just going by this recent layout I'm using, once I have everything placed where I need it I can start choosing the background wallpaper and save different versions so I can swap my phone's look throughout the week at my whim. The wallpaper doesn't have to be the exact size of the middle image space but you need to re scale it to at least 1122 pixel height and you can just drag it across to frame it how you'd prefer. If you've got this opened on GIMP you'll understand what I'm saying much clearer.

Here's another Zooper Widget template for my center clock layout in case anyone wants it:

I hope these new details help. Keep sharing any questions you may have and thank you for all the kind words!

Thanks, guys! I really appreciate the kind words! Lotta work I put into these themes but they're fun to make and I enjoy helping out my community around here!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] DudeThatsErin:
So, how do you change the main wallpaper? Do you go into GIMP every time and just re-upload it Nova?

How do you get each little section clickable in nova? Do you import it to KLWP?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Deleted member 7436581:
I just save different versions of the same layout on my phone so that I can swap wallpapers depending on what I feel like.

The toggles on top is a widget

The time, date and storage info is a Zooper Widget

The folders in the middle (Tools/News/Media/Photography/Office/Games - I just drag from the the app drawer and make them transparent so the wallpaper comes through

The icon rows on the bottm launch from Zooper Widget hot spots.

So I downloaded GIMP and also have PS. How am I to use your template considering it has the clock in it and all the other stuff? Or does that not matter?

Also, if I want to create my own template, whats the picture resolution supposed to be at ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Deleted member 7436581:
You don't need to go by my recent layout example, you can just use the grid template to help make your own but you can take my screen shots and chop them up and use whatever part you want. The clock is a Zooper Widget and you can download it from the link in the first post. Let me fire up GIMP and provide a more detailed description of my current home screen layout so you can see what size is what and where. I'll update my first post when I'm done. Hang tight!

[MENTION=7436581]roaduardo[/MENTION] do you have the first post's wallpaper without any icons, but including the shadows of each layer?

Also please remind me which widget is the top toggles widget?

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Deleted member 7436581:
Here ya go! The top widget I made using Zooper Widget Pro, the template of which I've also included in the first post. Install Zooper Widget Pro if you haven't already and just use that template file I included. If you run into any issues let me know.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
Don't mind one bit, that's what this thread is for! That looks absolutely brilliant! l love the color and the background wallpaper. Very nice!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] simple23227:
Thanks. :)

I just thought of a way to make this even cooler. Once you have the layout down in gimp or photoshop or whatever the designing software you use, it's easy to change the colors and the wallpapers. So I just made a bunch of them, with different colors and wallpapers, but exact same layout. Then I use the app called "Smart Wallpaper" (from feedK on Goolge Play store) to add all those pictures that I have made from photoshop, and set to rotate them once every 24 hours. So then, every day, I wake up with a new screen :D
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] simple23227:
Ok, my final design, for now. Gotta enjoy my phone. I've been at it for the last 2 days haha. Thanks again [MENTION=7436581]roaduardo[/MENTION].

If anyone wants my layout in photoshop, let me know. I'll upload it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
Great execution!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
Spent a few hours putting together a new widget. Made only the slightest change the my previous wallpaper layout in order to accommodate the new widget design. Link for the new Zooper Widget below. Hope y'all like it!

[IMG="Cloning"]https://drakalogia.wikispaces.com/file/view/Human-Cloning.jpg/530906796/330x222/Human-Cloning.jpg[/IMG]​

Hi!

There is a hide option in our Huawei launcher that seems to be very cool ( for me )!

You can clone any app that is in your phone!!!! Hmmm?!

This doesn't duplicate the app, just create a new link and data folder, still be used one app only!

Can be deleted normally without uninstalling the full app.

For example Facebook app! One app only and 2 accounts! Great, no?!

Facebook messenger the same! Etc, etc, etc...

Just download, extract the litle software that i create to your ADB folder, execute and Read what is write in there!!!

If you like it press thanks! ⬇️​

Enjoy it!

[P8lite General] Vinnipinni:
Hey dude. Could you tell me what this programm does? The way it works? I could really use such feature, but I can't beacuse I do not use Windows and I never will. I run Ubuntu and I am sure that I will be able to clone apps if you tell me how to. I would really enjoy it, if you could maybe give me the source code. I can't use any of your useful tools, because they are all written for Windows.

Your program probably just runs some adb commands and maybe some other things, but mosly adb commands.
[P8lite General] brunolee:
On build.prop add this line:

ro.config.hw_support_clone_app=true

adb commands:

[B][U]Add 1 app:[/U][/B]
adb shell "settings put secure clone_app_list '[I]package_name_1_app[/I]'"

[B][U]Clone YouTube example:[/U][/B]
adb shell "settings put secure clone_app_list 'com.google.android.youtube'"

[B][U]Add more than 1 app:[/U][/B]
adb shell "settings put secure clone_app_list '[I]package_name_1_app[/I][B][COLOR="red"];[/COLOR][/B][I]package_name_2_app[/I][B][COLOR="red"];[/COLOR][/B][I]...[/I]'"

[B][U]Clone YouTube and Gmail example:[/U][/B]
adb shell "settings put secure clone_app_list 'com.google.android.youtube[B][COLOR="Red"];[/COLOR][/B]com.google.android.gm'"
[P8lite General] persona78:
Hi!

Sure!

It use ADB and your phone must have debug mode ON.

First line is to get the apps from your phone in to a file:

adb shell pm list packages -f > Installed.app.txt

This will create a txt file that you can open, in there you will find all installed apps and the package name is at the end of every line.

Second line is to add a package:

adb shell settings put secure clone_app_list package.name.here

And you will get in phone a second icon from that app.

If you want to add more you will need to add again all te packages you have plus that new one, for that you can check what you already have with this code:

adb shell settings get secure clone_app_list > Cloned_app_list.txt

In Cloned_app_list.txt you can check what you already have, so to be easy just add there the new one like this: package.name.here;newpackage.name.here;etc;etc

So the code will be:

adb shell settings put secure clone_app_list
package.name.here;newpackage.name.here;etc;etc

Don´t forget to put ; between the package names.

Do you understand?

Has anyone who plays a lot of games notice a smudge that just will not go away? I play injustice 2 a lot and 2 spots on screen where my thumbs are usually it looks like I have worn away a costing on the glass. I can buff with a cloth but you can still see them as you turn phone in right light. I'm not trying to be nitpicky but it's not even month old and paid slot of money. I'll try and post pics when I get home and have access to another camera
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] GallardosEggrollShop:
I play a lot of Real Racing 3 (1-2 hours a day sometimes less) I have not noticed any fingerprint smudges that would not wipe away. My recommendation would be to get Eye glass or lens cleaner and a microfiber cloth. Wipe it down and see if that helps. I use https://www.amazon.com/Absorbent-Microfiber-Cleaning-Cloths-Computer/dp/B008FPTID2/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1507123733&sr=8-13&keywords=microfiber+cloth

They have been working great so far and I use them to wipe down everything with a screen. Just remember to wash them frequently as well. I just throw mine in the laundry and then hang dry them.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] finch0812:
I use a microfiber cloth and even after wiping it as still there. After cleaning just barely noticeable but comes back badly later. it's bad enough that it looks like dead screen
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] pete4k:
Maybe you somehow wear off oleophobic coating, some chemicals will do that either when somehow deposited from your fingers or when cleaning.

https://www.phonearena.com/news/Ole...e-what-to-do-if-the-coating-wears-off_id65974

Either try Samsung service center to fix it, or try fix it yourself. I use screen protector, so never experience it myself and I don't see this being mentioned too often, so I wouldn't even begin to speculate why it happened to you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Pryor06:
cant seem to post images and links here, so please just add https:// to this "imgur.com/a/oLaeF"

i've also got one unit with "smudges" on it after having the phone for just 2 days. i had to argue yell and get mad at Samsung technician when they said it was "normal", and I wasn't covered by the 7 day replacement warranty. "smudges" aren't noticeable when screen is on, it's more visible in black screen/screen off. i had to get the screen dirty with my finger natural oil/dirt, to give emphasis on the "smudges". i also used my other phone's camera flash to make it more visible. i've also tried putting those oleophobic liquid protector but it didnt help at all. the pictures i posted were after i applied the liquid so you be the judge.

is "smudge" the right term? not sure bout calling it a stain too. coz it's more like oil... just like when you put a drop of oil on a paper towel.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] blecap:
I actually have that as well, mine is on the Volume button up area the size of "a index finger". While wiping with my microfiber cloth, everywhere is smooth except that part, when I wipe I don't wipe it hard at all since the day I got my hands on it. I believe it's a defect right out the box and I don't use any screen protector.

I just saw your image Pryor06 except mine is not noticeable both on and off screen but it can be felt when wiping. Any conclusion?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] SiNJiN76:
Have you guys tried washing it under water with soap?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Pryor06:
i actually haven't noticed any difference in the "texture"(?) of the screen. all felt smooth except with the visuals/optics of the screen when screen is off/black. i was on the bus on my way back home when I noticed the smudges under the sunlight. I had no cleaning materials that time, so for the meantime I used a little of my saliva:angel: on one part of the screen's problem. The surrounding part got clean, except the part with the issue. After I got home, I used alcohol and wiped the phone clean, thoroughly but gently, before applying the oleophobic liquid protection. "Smudges" were also around the bottom left, bottom center, bottom right of the screen but not as worse. I thought the top middle part smudge was enough evidence for me to claim warranty.

Blecap, try using white light from a phone camera to check your screen. Not sure about SG, but if you could get it replaced for warranty then go for it. Otherwise, I think all Samsung Note 8 have Concierge service, wherein our phone's screen is under warranty for free replacement of screen+labor for 6 months from date of purchase.

I had to be careful in handling the phone since day 1, because I wasn't able to get a screen protection. It's hard to prove and claim warranty here in the Philippines. All Samsung have to say is it's the fault of consumers, or normal wear and tear, and customers don't have anymore options. I've experienced it first hand, remember the screen lifting/bubble on Samsung Note 5, I was one of the victim. They blamed me for moisture getting in to the phone when I swear I haven't dropped the phone in any liquid. That's why I didn't even want to risk washing the phone in soap and water even with the IP68 of Note 8. I don't want to give Samsung an excuse to blame me again.

I actually was having double thoughts if I would surrender my phone for replacement warranty. I believe it wasn't affecting the phone's performance, so I thought I should just suck it up and live with it. But no, call me nitpicky/demanding/hard to please, but I just had the phone for barely 2 days, and with a price tag of almost $1,000, I know we should fight for our rights and demand a quality product. From my research before getting the phone, the only issue I read was the screen "bleeding" on the sides. Maybe that's why I wasn't that too observant on the smudges when I was checking the phone before they release it to me.

I usually just lurk around forums, but I decided to make my account here to warn others that such issue exist. It's a beautiful and powerful phone I have to admit it, but buyers should we aware and check carefully before spending their hard earned money.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Praks93:
Very unlikely

I do not believe you can wear off the coating so easily. Heavy gamer here. Switched to the Note 8 recently but gamed hard on the S8+ as well for months before switching. This includes games that required swiping constantly. The screen on that S8+ is still pristine.
