Noob question, but after playing around with some iOS8 themes it seems only a couple of icons change, most of them remain the same. I read somewhere that the icon names changed, but I've specifically tried themes that said they were iOS8 compatible, anyone know what I'm doing wrong.

Also how do I go back to stock? I only see an option to actually choose one of my installed themes, but no option to go back to stock. It's kind of odd because when I choose a theme the checkmark appears next to it for half a second then disappears so I'm not even sure which theme is loaded up or how to unload it.
 
Most themes don't theme every icon. Especially the free ones. You just uncheck all of your selected winter board items and press respring to go back to stock. If you are having issues, I would suggest re-installing winter board.

Dude, you switch from the Note 4? Welcome back. lol. I still got my Note 3, but enjoying my jail broken 6 plus.

Nothing is checked, that's my issue. I'll try to reinstall winterboard, thanks.

Yeah, lol. I kinda got tired of the sluggishness and android itself. Give me a couple of months and I'll get sick of iOS and switch to something else, maybe windows phone or something.

I gotta say though that I haven't jailbroken a phone since probably the ip4 and I'm quite impressed with how many cool things are in Cydia. Many of the things I find deficient in iOS are corrected with jailbroken apps.
