Today I got a system update of around 120mb and after that the themes are not working properly.
The theme icon are not showing up on the home screen or in the menus. I am using a material theme and the changed icon is showing only on the lock screen.
I've tried different themes, restarting the handset and I even did a hard reset.

Anybody else facing this problem?

I think Samsung screwed it up badly. I don't have the new update, but when I submit themes to the store they tell me it has all these problems that are out of my control. Random icons moved, or not showing, certain colours not changing etc. One of my themes is literally one that is in the store now only with different colours, so it definitely would have any mistakes in it.

Same here

Even after a second update I still only have standard icons no matter what theme is chosen. The lock screen is the only place correct icons are shown. This is six days after last update that started the problem. Any suggestions?

Try flashing a ROM of a nearbuy country.
Mmmm have never tried this. Pc tech savvy but not android... complicated? Is there a how to somewhere. Imagine it means backing up phone contents. Will it definately work or just a maybe? I'm using nova launcher at the moment to get close to the theme I like.
