Setting themes.

[GrammaHash59]

👋 I have not been successful in installing themes from the Galaxy Store to include all their features on my S24 Ultra. Altho it shows them to include changing the look of mostly everything, mine will only change the home and lock screens. Am I missing something here? Any help is much appreciated.

Most Samsung's themes, change very little. They are pretty basic, and don't theme any 3rd party apps. 

HEX Installer from the Play Store, is miles better, but while it currently Themes System, Samsung & many 3rd party apps, developers have said that they have discontinued development, and One UI V6.1 is the final One UI version that will be Themed.

Thank you very much for your help. Disappointed as I was able to change everything with my previous Samsung A71. Now my keyboard and message background will always be grey and black. 😮‍💨

Try turning off dark mode and then re-apply the theme.

I had tried before to mess with themes and I had noticed that my phone wouldn't fully apply a theme when in dark mode for some reason.

Samsung's themes, generally su*ck, aren't updated very often, and usually only theme a minimal amount of your phone.

Yeah i know lol. But some do theme a bit more than others and if OP wants to use that and turning off dark mode can help, it's worth a try.

Hi GrammaHash59,

Along with the suggestions provided by our Samsung community members, you can also try the below steps.

Please check Theme settings. Some themes comes with additional settings or options that need to be adjusted. Check the theme's settings in the Galaxy Store or in the Settings > Wallpaper and style section.

If the issue persists, you might try resetting the theme settings. Go to settings > Wallpaper and style and select Reset to the default theme, then try applying your desired theme again. 

After applying theme please restart your device, sometimes a simple restart can resolve issues with theme application.

Thank you.
