Samsung, it would seem, is a serious giant, specializing in smartphones lately, offers its customers the perfect devices! Oh no! If you are reading this article, then not everything is in order for you. Quite often, users of this brand face a problem when the interface starts to jerk up a bit, resulting in an error of the following format: "The TouchWiz Screen application has stopped." What to do in this case? Flash your phone? Carry to the workshop? To hand over under a guarantee, if it is still valid?

You can solve the problem yourself. It is not a fact that it appeared due to improper operation of the device. Most likely, this is a bug of the shell itself installed in your Samsung. In this article, we will discuss several ways to solve this problem.

From the article you will learn

Resetting the error by simply turning off the phone

We will proceed from simpler methods to more complex ones, so we recommend that you perform them in the same order. If you get the error for the first time, then there is a high probability of removing it by removing the battery.

Here's what we do:

1. Without turning off the device, remove the battery from it;
2. Then press the power button, press for about 30 seconds;
3. Put the battery back, close the lid, try to turn on the smartphone.

Why is this done, you ask? With this method, we completely drain the capacitors until they are completely discharged. After that, the phone memory is already rebooted without any problems or interference.

After this procedure, we need to turn on our Samsung in safe mode (this procedure is temporary). Not sure how to do this?

For Samsung devices, the operation is as follows:

1. We press the Power button so that our device starts to turn on.
2. Next, press and hold the Menu key, waiting for the device to boot into safe mode.

Did not work? Then let's try another method.

1. We press simultaneously three keys - Home, Power and Menu. We are waiting for our device to turn on in the appropriate mode. Please note that in this case, the operating system will not load third-party programs. You can easily remove unnecessary and problematic applications.

If you have done all the above steps and still a notification appears with the text "The TouchWiz Screen application has stopped", go to the next step.

Turn on disabled apps

Perhaps your smartphone has disabled standard programs and systems that are necessary for the device to work correctly. To do this, we perform the following operations:

1. Go to the "Settings" of your Samsung and go to the tab "Application Manager";
2. At the top of the screen, click on the "Disabled" item so that the system displays a list of disabled programs;
3. Now we restore each software one by one and check whether the error still appears or not.

If you still have not succeeded, move on to the next point.

Clearing cache and data

1. Go to the "Settings" of your device, select the tab "Application Manager";
2. Choose the parameter "All" there;
3. Find the item "Contacts", go in and clear the cache;
4. Then you return to the previous menu, select the phone settings there. Push the button "Clear cache and data".

Please note that after clicking this tab, all previously created settings will be deleted.

Clearing the Touchwiz cache

As a rule, any widget located on your screen can be the cause. Try to remove them all first and restart your smartphone. If it does not help, then click "Settings" and go to the application settings. Find "Details" in the general list and click on "Touchwiz Screen". All that remains is to clear your cache and restart your phone again.

If this method did not help, then you will have to do a full reset to the factory settings so that all user data is completely deleted from the phone. We also recommend checking your OS version for updates.

Samsung has been aware of this problem for a long time, and has already released fixes for most versions and skins that completely solve the problem. Just be sure to create copies, because all information from the phone will be deleted, that is, you will completely lose all contacts stored on the phone. In some cases, a full flashing of the phone may also be required, for example, if your version of Android is no longer supported by the developer.

If this error appears, and at the same time you cannot go to another menu item or the "Back" button does not work, and the phone seems to be frozen, you can use the quick menu by swiping down and selecting "Settings" in the list. Users often forget about this, although in many cases this method saves.

If we talk in general about the situation of users, then most often the problem occurs due to stopping applications, as a result of which a notification appears. And sometimes it is not the user himself who is to blame. he could not disable them, but additional programs that were installed from third-party services or various utilities to speed up the system, cleaning programs, for example, the same Clean Master.

The latest version of Samsung's TouchWiz user interface has finally received long-awaited support. The GALAXY A series smartphones (GALAXY A3, GALAXY A5 and GALAXY A7 models) are the first to have this new feature. Later, flagship devices joined, as well as the latest and. Today there is some new information about the theme changer for TouchWiz.

However, the latest version of TouchWiz does not include creating your own themes. This is definitely a temporary drawback, because in the near future, a special tool will appear in the popular Samsung interface shell for the Android operating system that will allow you to create themes yourself - to your taste and color, as they say. Users will be able to develop and share self-created themes for their smartphones.

Currently, the availability of this tool is extremely limited - it is only available in the GALAXY Note 4 phablet. But Samsung, it seems, is already working on expanding the coverage of devices. Samsung's official support team has responded to one user that the new flagship GALAXY S6 will be joining the aforementioned model soon and that availability will be expanded to include many other markets. How do you like the ability to create your own themes?

Because this is a theme for CyanogenMod ROM, it does not show the icon in the app drawer, this is not a bug or something.

NO!

How do I start it?
Flash custom recoveries for your phone (CWM, twrp or whatever - by the way, if you don't know what it is, the theme won't work), Flash CyaongenMod Rome for your phone, install this app and install the theme in Theme Manager ...

OMG I can't open the app!
Because this is not a normal application, this is a theme for the CM12 theme manager, so you cannot open it, only apply to themes.

I don't have a Themes / Theme Manager.
Because you don't need Cyan Mod 12.

Please note that I can set min Android version to 5.0, but many phones officially have earlier Android version, but they might have CM12 as custom ROMs. Therefore, please do not install the application and give 1 star if you do not know what this application is exactly.
YOU MUST HAVE AN INDIVIDUAL ROM of CyanogenMod 12 (Android 5.0 Lollipop) to run this one!
If you have any errors, some elements are in the screenshot, but not in your phone - this is not a bug theme, this is a bug with CM Theme Chooser, so please don't write, for some reason it doesn't work for you! Wipe the disc and apply the theme again.

This is a theme for CM12 in TouchWiz style from Samsung phones. Please note that it does not have all the applications and all the elements are the same as on the Samsung phone, it is only stylized. Buy, install and have fun :)
