Really should just give TouchPal a go... I find that better than any hardware or virtual keyboard you can get...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] akkad:
actually am using TouchPal and it is my best keyboard and i believe that if windows mobile devices has a very sensitive touch screen just like the iPhone then i can say that TouchPal will be the best all the time, but with my htc touch i still have a problem with touchpal when i want to enter such words like password/email (without predicate) specially when sliding left/right, any way it was an idea ....

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Bxrghes:
After the last update, the October patch, my Galaxy S8 went on to drain a lot of battery, about 10% every 30 minutes. The loading speed is still the same. This is something that never happened, because my phone usually spent 10% at 1 hours of use, and I'm a somewhat intense user. When using an app like Spotify the battery comes to be consumed almost completely in just a few hours. Is this problem only happening to me or is it recurring to other users? Is there any chance that in a new update this will improve or is it going to be like this from now on?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] VMCR:
YES! Same is happening to me, horrible battery life!
[Acer Iconia A500] chris1379:
I got this from work and I'm not sure it's worth fixing but here is where I am with it. Recovery mode just shows the dead Android. I can get into APX mode but that's it. I have the SBK number and Blackthund3r APX Flash tool and I believe the recovery is what I need to flash. It seems all of the links to APX recovery files are broken. Please help me with the files I need to unbrick this thing. I believe if I can get into recovery, I'll be OK. Let me know if I need anything else.

Thanks,

Chris

I made a thread with some links to roms and some files to unlock the bootloader without blackthunders tool. Hopefully it helps I think you may need to be rooted to get it to work. https://xdaforums.com/iconia-a500/general/2018-a500-upgrade-threaddownloads-to-t3832293

Pixel Experience

​

This is the Pixel Experience. For those who want to enjoy a lighter theme with minimal, subtle changes that want to be able to set it and forget it without having to worry about constant Google app updates and be able to enjoy the Pixel look. This is for you and you're gonna love it! Enjoy the clean and refreshing look and experience the Pixel!!! #WhiteUiMustLive

Now you probably didn't bother to read that crap above so let's just post some screenshots shall we?

G Theme 3​

Click me for Video Promo​

t's back!!! This is G Theme 3. Why G Theme you ask? Well I think you can figure that out when you use it what it's all about. This theme is a premium quality theme like no other Home theme+. What you see is what you get and that is quality and attention to details! G Theme 3 is a dark theme with beautiful colors and designs throughout it. The Dark Notifications compliment the ui and battery life! This theme supports adaptive icons and I recommended choosing circle which is unlocked as a feature and can be accessed from going into the settings application and then going into display, home and choose the icon shape. Due to this the music app does have a light overlay at the bottom which is a bug that LG should address!!! For real LG fix that will ya.

Now this is the important part. This theme is only for LG devices running UX 8, Android 9.0 pie. If you are running a different LG UX or android version this will not work and if you upgrade from the above this theme may not work properly. It is presented on an "as is basis". I do my best to try and update to allow for the theme to function on all devices as best I can and as soon as I can. However due to LG's interesting update cycle sometimes one device may update prior to others.

To apply the theme simply go into settings/display and select themes. From there select Twilight, and push apply! then reboot and then reapply the theme again. It's a bit more in depth than other themes but given the complexity of this premium theme it is required for all elements to be themed properly.

That's it! Simple, easy and quick.

If you're using the V40 or any other UX8 device that doesn't have the seamless wallpapers here's a link to one which will change to the one shown in the theme upon applying the theme! For those that do already have seamless wallpapers you will see this new option now available in your list of delectable seamless wallpapers instead of the silly pink one that was previously there.

Seamless Wallpaper right Here!!!​

Please note that refunds will not be given for installations on non LG G8 or LG V40, LG 50 UX 8 (running Pie) Devices. As the title of the theme clearly indicates which device this is for and this app description does specify which OS version is supported..

This theme is also meant to run at the highest resolution, with the lowest stock setting for the actual display size. Larger sizes may cause some elements to look slightly off. If this happens please lower the display sizes of the iconography.

If you run into any issues please send me an email directly instead of leaving a poor rating. Often I am very quick to reply and great to solve any issues. The review system is not meant to be a support channel!

Thank you so much for your support and I hope you enjoy this theme. I've worked extremely hard on this and by far it was the most challenging and time consuming project I've ever made!

Rain​

​

This is Rain, an LG Home+ theme for your LG G8, LG V40, LG V50 running Android 9. This theme is a premium quality theme like no other Home theme+. What you see is what you get and that is quality and attention to details! Rain is a dark theme with some bright gradient accents throughout. The Dark Notifications compliment the ui and battery life! The app icons have a slight gradient to them, with some more noticeable than others. This theme does not support adaptive icons as some of the key features of this theme are blocked by enabling the adaptive icons. If you'd prefer adaptive you will need to use a third party launcher like Hyperion or Nova.

No need to run a third party theme system any more, just use the system theme chooser and you can enjoy all the benefits of an advanced theme system.

To apply the theme simply go into settings/display and select themes. From there select Rain, and push apply! then reboot and then reapply the theme again. It's a bit more in depth than other themes but given the complexity of this premium theme it is required for all elements to be themed properly. Also it is not recommended to "Hide the second screen/notch"'. This may cause some system apps to look odd.

That's it! Simple, easy and quick.

This theme is also meant to run at the highest resolution, with the lowest stock setting for the actual display size. Larger sizes may cause some elements to look slightly off. If this happens please lower the display sizes of the iconography. Also do not hide the notch. That may cause some things to look weird! No fix for that if you do!

If you wish to utilize the seamless wallpapers please install these two apps. Then reapply the theme and you will be able to select them

Sorry folks the whole page is mine!
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Swizzle82:
Bro!! Gonna go try it out in a few.. Love the dark notifications... Can't wait to see you do some more dark themes..
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
You bet man! Version 1 should be pretty solid. I'll probably find (or you guys will) a fee things I either forgot to fix it didn't know about but I haven't found anything major yet!

I wanted to get this out though so people would stop trying the GUY version and crashing their system UI! Then my next dark project can get going.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
Looove your dark themes with plenty colors :)

Was a sad moment when I couldn't use your v20 themes (paid for) on this phone, but hay, who said life would be easy ;)

Is it possible to implement the choice to put mixed colors also on the notification/quick menu icons, like in settings?

Keep up the good work :)
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Unfortunately the LG theme system does not have the ability to add something like a users choice of accents. It's an all or nothing thing
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] lilhaiti:
Overall, excellent theme, your themes are still my favorite. Found a couple of things. In the stock messaging app, the accents are gold instead of blue. And the navbar is dark on dark in Gmail and chrome. Over than that, it's awesome.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Regarding the navbar did you reboot after you applied the theme and did you manually change it to dark in settings (that needs to happen). I was definitely having that issue as well but fixed it. Hopefully I didn't mess up and upload the wrong app to Google play. Let me know and if I did I can fix that after work

And if you can please email me pics of the msg app. I don't have it on my phone so idk what I can do about it if anything at all
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] lilhaiti:
Yes I rebooted and reset the navbar buttons to dark (I had to change it to something else and back). I have rebooted several times since. It seems to be only some Google apps that are effected. I am sending you screen shots now.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Ok I must have mixed things up. I'll take a look at everything tonight when I get home home. Which variant do you have? Not many have the LG msg app
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] lilhaiti:
No worries, I have the AT&T variant. I am probably 1 of 5 people that use the stock messaging app...I usually use a third party, but I have been using this one so far, it's not bad (I guess...lol).
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Wow I'm actually surprised they included it. I thought only European ones included it. Nonetheless I'll see what I can do
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Hey guys,

So after what seems like an eternity my new project is complete. I cannot begin to explain how draining this one was on me. I pushed myself pretty hard on this one and did things I've never done and it was such a huge amount of work to take on. I'm absolutely thrilled with how it turned out and I just love it. I sure hope you all do as well. Check out post 2 to see it and read about it. There is some good information in it as well.

Here's a video for it too! https://youtu.be/DxQel1Vx-xU
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
Amazing!

Beautiful :)

Well done, well done!

I love it!

Just a question...

Are the notifications meant to be white?
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Swizzle82:
Love the new theme. The quick settings tiles are gonna keep me from using it though. I have almost all quick tiles from 3rd parties.

I also saw the pixel style wifi icon in the pics but it's not that way on my screen.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Swizzle82:
Airplane, flashlight(not pictured), nfc, and quad dac are white as well. Not sure if any othets though.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
Not active = white

Active = colored
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Swizzle82:
Noticed that, but feel like the ones that aren't active all of the time should be colored and then go to white when active. Doesn't look very uniform that way when you have your flashlight as a quick tile and it only turns color when you briefly use it. Just my opinion. You're not gonna have NFC on all of the time due to battery drain so it's always pretty much white. Maybe it just looks weird to me cause I use mostly 3rd party tiles and theyre all transparent. Maybe if I had them all able to be shown it would look fine.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Yes they are. Too many people complain about dark notifications so i went with light by default to avoid it. In the future i may make a dark patch for those who won't complain about whatsapp notifications being hard to read lol! I personally don't use whatsapp lol. I hate whatsapp tbh! Telegram ftw! Lol
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Ya i remember you mentioning that you use a lot of third party apps. I knew it wouldn't be for you because of that. Hey you tried it thoufh right!
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Not a bad idea. I could change the inactive ones to have a different type of gradient color. So that you always have some type of effect when they're not active. Something to consider and play around with.

Thanks for the idea.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Swizzle82:
I actually love the theme with the exception of that.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Thanks man. This was so hard to make let me tell ya. So i do appreciate that.

I have a few patch add-ons i want to make. I actually made a couple others to give people like yourself who heavily use 3rd party qs icons an option with like a universal gradient bg for all the quick settings. I was going to make one in each color. They look pretty good. I made one but because i felt this was already taking too long i didn't manage to get them all done when i released this but then again thats what updates are for. So maybe in a week i can crank them out. I gotta take a few days off and let my brain relax.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Swizzle82:
No doubt bro. The more I use this I find all of the polishing you've done. You are truly the best theme maker for these Lg phones.. Looking forward to a patch for the tiles. Alsom might be due to variant issues, but are the Wi-Fi and signal meter supposed to be individual bars or fully shaded? Mine on Tmo is showing individual bars.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
They're supposed to be individual. I realize i posted in the preview pics, older screenshots of just before i changed them from the pixel style. I'll have to update the previews at some point to avoid confusion
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
I don't use Whatsapp! Don't really think too many people use it anyway? I just never understood why white always been the base of everything? Google have ignored dark theming forever and pretends it's like some big half impossible project that's gonna take years?
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
I think whatsapp is the most useless msg app ever but it is for some reason very popular and i get a ton of emails complaining about the notifications from it. And basically if I'm going to be making themes for people that they're buying i have to do my best to keep them as happy as possible and make sure usability is as best i can. I didn't think it would be such a big deal because people have been dying for dark notifications forever and then when they got them a lot asked for a revert. So to avoid those daily emails and 1 star reviews i went with the light ones. Know what i mean?
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
[MENTION=5619709]Swizzle82[/MENTION]

Here's a test with the off toggles being dimmed yet still retaining the gradient colors. Think it works better?
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
No worries!

What do you think about something grayish in between color? Should that still be a problem for WA?
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
I tried it and it just looks off. Needs to be either black or off black. Or it just looks odd
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
Well,

That's perfectly fine with me! Looks better than before :)
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Swizzle82:
Yes please ?
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Yeah me too. Gonna push the update shortly
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Twilight is updated. Lots of subtle things in framework, redid the off state for quick settings. And i added 5 patches required for dark notifications. Links for those in app description.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
Thanks!

Great! Just wondering what's the difference between all the dark notification patches? I tried the nr 5. Just made less rounded corners.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
So the notifications affect different apps. For examole one is framework, one is systemui, one is music app (affects the notifications control colors. Stock has black music controls and text so i had to invert theme for dark notifications to ensure readability, etc). So yeah it takes 5 patches to make it happen. Make sure to keep the apks handy because you will need to reapply the patches after every update.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
Aha!

Thanks!
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
Notifications!

Installed all the 5 patches, changed theme to lg, restarted and changed back to yours! Dunno if I did something wrong, but there's a white notification behind(?) the black one. When I pull half way down I can see it's from the same app. Strange?
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
You have to reboot again
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
Always rebooted!

But I was executing it all in late night zombie hours :)

Must have missed something? It's all working now and I really like it all! You fixed the smiley section of the keyboard as well, nice :)
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Lol @ zombie hours. I've been doing the same. I'm so tired from this one. I'm hoping i can take the night off and not have to fix anything but we'll see. I have a few more emails to go through and check! Glad everyone seems mostly happy so far!
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Done tinkering for the night. But i think i need to take a peak at the power menu and see what i can do with it. Subtle things like that are always nice.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Swizzle82:
So a little workaround I'm using to keep my quick setting shortcuts is to use an app called shortcutter and put them at the hidden side bar. You'll have to use the paid features, but it is a free app. It is highly customizable and should be a decent temp solution. The tiles still have functionality with this theme but are not visible(as we know). This is just a way you can still have your shortcuts with icons and access them quickly, just not as a quick tile.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
I use the floating bar for those apps!

Speaking of the floating bar! Is it possible to include it in your theme color Mark?
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Swizzle82:
Lg floating bar doesn't use 3rd party shortcuts.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
That's kinda cool. I may have to download it and see if i can theme it.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
I probably could. I havent used it forever and forgit i even had it. I'll play around and see what i can do
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
I think i should add xda as well. I know it has dark mode too but i kinda liked having it more blacked out. Like how google messages for twilight is now blacked out and not just dark
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
That's right...

Just gave up the shortcuts that doesn't work in qs! I take the "long" way through those apps right now...
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
I was able to add blokada quick settings tile after i modified the apk slightly. It doesn't change colors when activated vs deactivated but it does show up for me if anyone wants to use it. I could never really get blokada to work well for me but i did manage to tweak it as best i could. You'll have to uninstall your current version because mine is signed with a different key than the official one

Hi there,

I am using the new twilight theme. In chrome the home bar is white. Can I make this dark like rest of the theme? It starts out at drak and them changes to white.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] fclifton:
I too am using the twilight theme. It is super cool! I found something on my phone in the Sound Volume menu - there is no icon for Touch feedback & system. I have a TMO V40 stock 8.1.0 using Action Launcher. Pictures attached. Light is a stock LG theme, dark is Twilight.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Hmm that's odd. Mine shows it. Wonder why yours doesn't. I guess i will have to check on that one. Not sure why it doesn't.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Couple things to try. First does it do that on the of keyboard too? If so go into settings and make sure you've selected the dark navbar color. You sometimes have to pick white and then go back to dark and then reapply the theme.

I think I read somewhere that gboard in some apps makes the navbar dynamic but I may be wrong
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Oh man I'm looking at the wrong place lol! I was thinking you meant the popup volume menu. Omg no wonder. Ok i should be able to fix that.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] tinkoo81:
I reapplied the stock theme and slecetd white color. Restart and applied the twilight agian. Seems to be working now. Thanks for the answer.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] fclifton:
LOL! I'm glad you found the right place, because even though I am special :cool: I hate it when only my phone does something weird! I didn't even think about the popup sound menu, but I checked and yes that one is fine. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Ok guys I've fixed a couple things like the volume panel in settings and I've improved the other volume panel (accessed by touching vokume buttons) and even added a pretty snazy charging animation gradient that you will sre when plugging in via usb or wirelessly. It's subtle but i think its a nice touch

White "leftovers" in the notifications/qs

Not very important, just a minor possible bug!

Hard to capture on a screen shot, but it's when you're half way pulling down the notifications/qs - the bottom notification blinks in white? Might be app related?

Attached pics step by step pulling down notifications!
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Thats something in dark notifications. I was never able to fix it with my other themes. Somewhat of a known issue. Idk if it even can be fixed or if I'm just looking in the wrong places
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
I guessed!

Maybe it's the Russians :)

Hehe!

[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nyttliv7:
Poweramp and System

I believe the Poweramp Notification is slightly too big (and white)? And the "Change Keyboard" is white, but this might be part of the problem you just described?
[LG V40 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Not sure to be honest. I can't do much with third party notifications at all. Good thing its white because if it wasn't you wouldn't be able to read the text on it because i can't really touch most text from those notifications. Things like what you're experiencing are major factors on why i did not do dark notifications by default. Too many issues that it just isn't worth it
