I believe this doesn't let you change the global background, only the one for your app.

Different Colours
Hi,
I tookthe original files posted, and i have applied some different effects to them using Adobe CS3 Masters Suite.
I have enployed an infrared effect over one set, and the other has has a greyscale filter applied to it but i have played with the saturation levels of the colors.
These look better for use with Dark themes, like HTC_Touch Grey and Black Themes
enjoy
sweetboy, that 8 looks as if it is upside down ... maybe got struck by the lightning one too many times?

changing backround image -> too bright?

Hi there...
I just got mine and first thing I wanted to change was the background image.
1) disabled TouchFlo3D in settings->home>elements
2) tried to set background image
my problem: The background image appears very bright almost white, so i cant really see it and because it is so white i almost cant read any words...
Any suggestions?
Thanks
AO
any idea ? no one?
bump it up, baby
use the pic and video viewer and select the picture (you know hold your finger or stylus so it does the lil circle thing) then pick the set as today background option and it will let you set the transparency level it will only work with the standard WM screen (thats what i call the screen from the wing anyway) and not touch flo

Hey, you posted this same question on another thread in the Themes section. It's already been answered. Don't start multiple threads going forward please. It just makes a mess and it seems you can't even track all of them when they've been responded to.
ok... sry ..
And thanks for the answer: worked well!

lol No, I'm talking about the shadow at the bottom not the icons. I guess the screenshot isn't showing my issue off very well.
To see the shadowing one must turn the brightness to the max. I don't know how to get rid of it. I know I don't have it but I am in Nougat. And not so many icons can be presented at once.

Screenshot does show it quite well, I see what you mean. I guess it may look different on different screens ... and eyes [emoji14]
That said, I don't know how to fix it. Maybe try looking at some Xposed modules (you are running Marshmallow, right?)

use transparent pulldown menu, might look better than.

Annoying start animation

Hi,
Very satisfied with my new phone, but ...
Each time I open an app it starts with very hard color taken from the icon of the app. Since the color is very hard, it is annoying. I disabled the animations, but stilll, the color is there. I have changed the icons of the apps to a less bright color, but this is not the right solution, I think. Any suggestions? Thanks, Natasa
Are you talking about these icons which show when we start an app?

to be fair it's only on for a split second, you could just use dark mode if it's to bright.

Only samsung does it
You can push on the screen upwards and it will vanish.

Help with Custom Font , Status Bar icon resize in Android 10 ONEUI 2.0

Hi,
First, if this is not the right forum to post this, excuse me.
Now the question, I just received my new S20 + and so far I love everything about the phone, you know it comes from an S7 until it gives up. The problem I have is that, on my previous phone (S7), I was able to changed the font size of my clok, Wi-Fi, LTG antenna symbol and the battery charge percentage indicator, in my new s20 + I can't find where to do this is no option, I spend a whole day, searching on Google looking for a answer that can help resize my icon's in the top bar to make them larger, the actual size is so small that I have to put glasses to see it. Do you guys have any solution to this or help?
Thanks in advance.

Oh OK lol. Only option then is screen space zoom in display settings or dpi setting in dev options
It won't change that much but you can play around and see.

I have called "Samsung care", and they told me that, they do not have any solution as right now. They did recognized and mentioned to me that, the preview version had the option to resize font, but for some reason, it was removed from the new version..... go and figure that one out smh..
yeah.. samsung tends to remove features they "think" people do not use.
For me, i still miss the good old samsung camera on the S7 and my note 8 before the oreo update.. where u can zoom in or zoom out by pressing and holding the shutter button (the white circle), and drag it upwards (to zoom in) and drag in downwards to zoom out.
i have no idea why they removed it.. i loved it as i can zoom in or out using only one hand.. new camera app i need to use one hand to hold, another hand to pinch the screen to zoom in..
not to mention some old samsung apps that is very useful, like the snapbizcard.. snap a business card and everything is saved into your contacts, automatically. it was super useful. i tried to transfer the apk from my samsung note 8 to the s20, but the app crashed everytime i want to take a photo of a namecard.

What do you mean "android 10" ? all galaxy s20 are android 10 ! it is the same as screen zoom , higher value give you smaller status bar . i can get 480 but it dose not make any different .
That's weird....i have screen zoom set to lowest and text size to second to lowest and icons are not small at all....check my screenshot
I am trying to make regular icons smaller....they are still to big even with 5x6
