This is a new issue for me on my T-Mobile S7 Edge. Every theme does it. The font and icons stick, but everything else is back to default after a reboot. Anyone else experiencing this?
 
Yes, I have had this issue. To me, it's not a big deal. Just re-apply the theme. However, in my case, it does not happen after each reboot. I believe it happens when I have chosen to use a different background than what came with the theme.

Again, it's not a big deal to me. Most of the time, I don't like the default wallpaper for the theme.

Strange.. I did change the wallpaper, but I always have. It's probably something a factory reset would fix, but I'd rather not. Looks like I'll just stick with the default theme. I use Nova launcher with custom icons and a 3rd party keyboard, so I only choose themes for the notification tray and dialer anyways.

I thought you were talking about the Samsung themes. For Nova, I just buy icon packs, not themes.
 
I don't use themes (have yet to find one I like - I hate the icons the most), but the wallpaper that I use (downloaded from Google Play) often disappears (background is all black) after I reset the phone and it won't come back until I set a different wallpaper (my phone shows the one I like as being set and trying to reselect it doesn't work) and then set the one I like again. Weird.

Just wanted to follow up. I gave in and did a factory reset, and it did indeed fix the issue. With already receiving a few software updates, I figured it would probably be beneficial to do one anyway.

It's interested, I did the same. Was sitting at home watching baseball game on TV and said..wth, might as well.

I haven't noticed whether it helped, I will take your word for it, since you tested.

I have just setup my base apps and added the baseball theme. Haven't switched paper yet.

Thanks, good info.
