Samsung Galaxy S6 User Guide
Here’s everything you need to know about your Samsung Galaxy S6 including tips, tricks and hacks for beginners and advanced Android users.
Change or Customize Themes
One of the Samsung Galaxy S6's best new features is its ability to use custom themes, which change the look and feel of the interface in interesting ways. With more than a dozen themes available as free downloads from Samsung's store that's found in the phone's Control Panel, you can make your wallpaper, icons and widgets fit your personality. For example, with the Hello Kitty theme, the notification / quick settings area is red and yellow, the icons for several major apps look like the famous cat and even the phone dialer is styled like the popular cartoon. Here's how to change the theme on your Galaxy S6 or Galaxy S6 Edge.—Avram Piltch

brunovd123 My S6 model is sm-g920i, however the build id showed in CF- Root site for this model doesn't match the build number of my device. Is this a problem?Reply -
MorganaRue Great intruduction, but for some reason not all your fixes work for me. For example, I want to disable the shutter sound on the camera. When I follow your instructions (allowing for the fact that I likely have a different version) I have no option to disable it. My only workaround is to mute my system sounds. Not a convenient option. Any suggestions?Reply
