[SOLVED]Themes

[Jellyfisher69]

Hello, I have Note 7 on PG9

I used to be able to use paid themes from theme store for unlimited amount of time by disabling 2 packages

This is no longer the case as one of the packages immediately enables itself

Is there a solution to this?

Thank you very much for what you doing here!

You could use the method released for disabling all OTA updates, it's on this site. Just edit the Disable_ADB file to "hide" the package that you're having issues with. I used their Disable_ADB file to disable OTA updates and then I added all Verizon bloatware package names to their script since it's easier to add on than make my own.

@Jellyfisher69: I have not heard of this before. Unlimited themes through the Samsung store? Which two packages were the ones you used to disable and how long ago was this when it worked for you last?

com.samsung.android.themestore
com.samsung.android.themecenter
But now whenever I disable .themecenter it enables itself back on immediately

I'm surprised you didn't know about this. It is well known. I read about it on xda

Edit:
I just found a working workaround
It is is by xda user aram95353 -
"If you are using package disabler to keep paid theme trials active, you need to do this when you activate the theme. you will have to open package disabler and make sure you click on theme store and theme centre then click clear data then disable for both. It will keep the theme active but if you reboot the theme will restore to the last one used after 5 minutes and you will have to repeat the steps"
