Screen loading after open apps - Themer General Discussion

I conducted a brief search with no results, so here goes, whenever I open an app, whether it be weatherbug or gplus, or any app. When I return to the home screen I get the loading wheel. Sometimes it takes up to thirty seconds to load. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi there, we are aware of this issue and the developers are working hard to resolve it.

laing eareudi
My phone use to be stuck loading after I'd press the home key to go back as well. That was a gNex though, not sure about other phones

Yep, exactly same issue on the Gnex

I hope this can be resolved. I think the issue occurs when you've had another app open for a while and return to the home screen (themer). I don't recall encountering this issue with other launchers, so fingers crossed it is an easy fix.
It is getting pretty frustrating, and I'm going to go back to use another launcher for the moment, but eager to use Themer so will be keeping an eye on this.
Keep up the good work!

The @ThemerSupport team are working very hard to try and fix all the bugs and crashes.
But this takes time and above all feedback as the themer support team can't fix any bug that's not reported to http://support.themerapp.com or just a post here at xda giving as much info as possible.
And as well as themer support there is a couple of users here who are trying there best to help and support themer.

[Q] Scroll Homescreens

Loving the app, just a thought one of my favorite feature in the past was having the home screens on "infinite scroll", where once you hit screen #4, next swipe takes you to screen 1 again. Any possibilities of getting that added?
this has been mentioned before and is a feature that in my opinion is badly needed

Any update on this feature yet
I just got Themer and would love this to be added. One thing you can do (at least on my LG Optimus G Pro) is press the home button to return to screen one.

Haven't used this app. Does it mean you can scroll your homescreen from top to down?

A feature I'd like to see on home screens

There are a few themes now on themer that do a lot of clicking to go screen to screen but scrolling is still possible to go to the screens, so I would like to see an option now to disable scrolling for the home screens to make this more effective.
Unless it is already on the app then can someone show me how to do it?

Sent an email to the developers again to see how easy it will be to implement. Features like this sound easy to implement, but in reality it might take a week straight to get right, and in that time the developers could be fixing a ton of bugs and adding in performance improvements. We'll keep you informed though!

Hi Mo,
We want to try and nail this problem, so we need your help as well as @alldroid.
We want to replicate the problem, so could you please give us:
1. When the crashes occurred
2. What Android version are you running (as well as ROM, software such as Xposed etc)
3. What device are you running
4. Anything else we should be aware of
Thanks it will be much appreciated!
Running jb 4.2.1 on galaxy s2, standard samsung non modified rom ,happens randomly here mainly when I try to add any widget to a theme that is a themer widget.I have had random reboots and lately random locks when I try to apply themes for which I get a report screen,these I forward on to yourselves.

@ThemerSupport
I'm still on v117 as if I update past that I just get a black screen when returning to home from a app if I push my home button. But if I exit a app using the back button sometimes I could still see the theme but 75% of the time I'm left with a black. So I rolled back to v117 where the only bug I get is every 3rd export I do crashes themer an I have to reboot my phone.
I have a Motorola RAZR I (xt890) running stock 4.1.2 with no mods not even rooted.
I dont get a report box with my crash after export all I see is a box that pops up saying themer has crashed then after 2-3 second it disappears just leaving a gray box that say loading which just stay there till I reboot and all it shows of the theme that was exported is the wallpaper but no widget's. And as I say its EVERY 3rd export not even random.
If there is any more I can do to help just let me know
EDIT: sorry forgot to say my RAZR I is powered by the Intel atom 2ghz cpu . do you have full Intel support is it done in the same way as most apps where its optimized for arm CPU but will run on Intel via the aid of arm to Intel emulation.
Just thought I'd ask is this might be a issue your not aware of this as I know the RAZR I is the European version of the RAZR m which you have in the U.S just with a different CPU IE intle.
All the best

Hi bro I've now saved the 1.17 apk.
So now I will do the latest version update and see what I find.
At least that way if things are to bad I can roll back.
As I cant remember on which version it was but on one I had a black bar at the top of my screen with the .APK I'd in big white font. So i rolled back 1 version and did the update again but still had the same issue. So I uninstalled themer all together and then reinstalled as a fresh install and all was fine. I did make a post about this but it seamed I was the only person that had it.
But when I've tested the newest version I will feedback what I find in way of bugs and crashes

My device is a low class android made in China, evercoss A7s mtk6572, 512MB ram, 4,5", Mali-400MP, touchwiz xprime rom
but i don't think its not the themer problem that its redraw, since i get back to default home touchwiz launcher yet still its redrawed...maybe the rom is the cause?

That might be the case, Themer is designed to work with stock ROMs (as that what we test it on). Lower RAM also doesn't really help, as we're still trying to optimize Themer's performance for low-end devices. Sorry about that.

Hi Themer team. I am having problem with your Themer app. I have a Nexus 4, which is still powerful with 2GB ram, but the launcher keeps redrawing. It's REALLY ANNOYING..so because It's redrawing when I scroll in home screen it's really laggy. But after maybe 10 seconds, everything settles, and becomes smooth again. After using an app for a while and go to Themer, it happens again. PLEASE fix it for us.. I really love themer, and recently installed it for someone who didn't know about it, but I'm pretty sure she's getting mad too with this bug..
Thank you.

Hi.
Please try this method, as it should help fix the issue:
1. Uninstall Themer.
2. Delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder (removing the Exported folder within it if you saved any themes).
3. Reinstall Themer.

Just tried, but doesn't help unfortunately. BTW even unlocking my phone redraws Themer. It's so annoying, I think I'm gonna switch to another launcher until you guys fix it. Hopefully soon, cause I want to use Themer.

Lag on the htc m8

i have used themer for a week on my m8, but no matter what theme i set, there seems to be considerable lag when i am swithing between the menu and home screen. Also is the case if i close any app and go back to the menu, the launcher takes at least 3-4 secs to load... this is very annoying. I have also noticed that themer stays in the background and when i close it from the recent apps, it lags and reloads... i have switched back to sense since this is very annoying... Such beautiful themes out there, and i simply cant get em to work with fluidity...
BTW i have enough ram and i have rebooted my device as well, but nothing has worked. If devs can sort this out, it will be a brilliant launcher...

Hi kartoonz,
Sorry for the delay, we understand that there is some lag, so here is a quick fix:
1. Uninstall Themer.
2. Delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder.
3. Reinstall Themer.
Also take note that a large update is coming this week which should also fix any lag issues.

Marco,
I actually tried themer on my m7, and every time I hit the home button it would blank the screen and sit on a loading wheel for a second or two, then go to the home screen. I do a lot of multi-tasking and bouncing around, so this led me to uninstall the app within the first day. I was rather bothered too because Themer is really awesome, and there are so many great looking "instant themes" that someone who's as fickle as me about how my phone looks really needs to have that kind of thing.
Can you speak to the lag/delay I got and if it was/will be fixed?

As Themer is still in beta, issues like lag are the hardest to fix. The way that Themer is designed, which is completely different to say Nova or Apex, means that our team often faces hurdles that no other launcher faces. Every update comes with new fixes, however we still need a few more weeks to iron out the lag.
That method I mentioned earlier is the best known fix to help with the lag, but hopefully soon there will be many more speed improvements. Sorry about that.

Followed the steps and now I can say that there's a 1 second delay when I press home sometimes.. I'd say so far about 10 percent of the time, which is monumentally better than it was. This means to me it's usable enough to enjoy your themes, so good work. I"m eager to see you make it even better. I wouldn't say you're finished the lag improvements but they're VERY significantly improved and I'll keep using themer while I watch to see what happens next
