Inverted = Everything is Black instead of White.
Allows any DPI setting so you will not get the "Your phone or tablet isn’t a supported device"
i.e. My DPI is set to 241 so this allows me to not get the supported error as well as a nice dark theme to the play store.

[APPS] Inverted Google Apps [LINK]

This site was just updated with the complete suite of Inverted Google Apps for GB (2.3.5), GB(2.3.6), and ICS (4.0.5). With Google constantly updating their apps, it's difficult to find developers who keep the Inverted apps current... well, here you go! Developer appears to be EVO focused; however, I personally tested both the Inverted Gmail 2.3.6 and Google Market 3.5.16v2 (PlayStore) on my Skyrocket running MHX-SUPERLITE 3.1 (GB 2.3.6).... and they work flawlessly! These versions are much better than previous inverted versions as the contrast makes it much easier to view/read emails and peruse Google Market. I also was able to use the Search function (couldn't on the other 3.5.16 inverted versions I tried) and also was able to purchase apps (which I couldn't on other versions). Website very organized (Home, Themes, Projects, Downloads)... go to Downloads where you can select the specific Google app and Version (235, 236, ICS). Both flashable zips and apks. Enjoy.

Bumping... for those who enjoy the Google Apps inverted look. Check out the link as it supports GB (2.3.5/2.3.6) as well as ICS (although it references 4.0.5) Inverted Google Apps. I've been running GooglePlay (Market) and Gmail for past 5 days and still working flawlessly on my SR (MHX SUPERLITE 3.1 GB rom).
Google Play [Market] just auto-updated from v3.5.16 to v3.5.19. If you're running or wish to run the inverted (dark theme) Market, this site just posted the the inverted v3.5.19

Thanks in advance.

are these only for the Skyrocket? or would they work on a Galaxy Note?
Inverted (Dark theme) Google Play 3.7.13
Google Play (Market) self-updated on my SR today (as it stealthly does) to 3.7.13. For those of you who were running an Inverted dark-theme Market (i.e., 3.5.19), Google will load their new 3.7.13 in /data/app folder. I checked the Inverted Google App Suite link (below), and they have already created an Inverted (aka, dark themed) Google Play Market 3.7.13. I downloaded/installed.. works great.

[APP] Play Store v3.9.16

I am not sure if any body wants this but I snatched this from the new gapps 10/11/12.
Changes from what I noticed:
-It let's you remove apps you uninstalled and are in the ALL section.
-Now when searching apps and you click an app then back out it remembers your location in the list instead of resetting to the top.
-When you install an app the icon of the app is in the notification drawer
Enjoy

Just wanted to add that this version of play store is also in the new gapps package

F.A.Q.​
0.1 Before replacing/modifying/deleting/uninstalling anything, I strongly advise that you make a backup of the original should anything go wrong. You have been warned!
0.2 This is not a Recovery Zip, it's meant for you to get only what you need. All you need is ROOT.
1. Something is not working / It keeps telling me that I have to update Google Play Services:
This means that you haven't installed PrebuiltGmsCore.apk that's included in this package. It's a newer version of Google Play Services that's required for several of the apps to work. I highly recommend installing it before installing anything else.​
2. Google Search / Google Now keeps crashing:
You must copy the following file from the included /system/lib folder to /system/lib in your device:
Code:
libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.so
.
Make sure that permissions are set to 644.
You'll need a file explorer app with root features. I personally use File Explorer with the Root Addon as it makes it extra easy to move things around since it has a dual panel feature and also allows you to change permissions.
Also, for the launcher to work properly, you need at least the following installed, in this order:
Code:
Google Play Services - PrebuiltGmsCore.apk
Google Search - Velvet.apk
Google Home - GoogleHome.apk
3. Ok Google Feature doesn't seem to work:
First, make sure you've done all the above steps to ensure that everything else for the Launcher/Google now is working.
Then, from the homescreen:
Menu > Settings > Voice > Offline Speech Recognition > Update if possible or Uninstall and Re-install the English (US) file.​
4. Photosphere is not working in the camera app:
You must copy the following files from the included /system/lib folder to /system/lib in your device:
Code:
libjni_filtershow_filters.so
libjni_mosaic.so
liblightcycle.so
Make sure that permissions are set to 644 on all those files.
You'll need a file explorer app with root features. I personally use File Explorer with the Root Addon as it makes it extra easy to move things around since it has a dual panel feature and also allows you to change permissions.​
5.Google Hangouts force closes when video calling:
You must copy the following file from the included /system/lib folder to /system/lib in your device:
Code:
libvideochat_jni.so
Make sure that permissions are set to 644 on all that file.
You'll need a file explorer app with root features. I personally use File Explorer with the Root Addon as it makes it extra easy to move things around since it has a dual panel feature and also allows you to change permissions.​
6. I cannot install Maps.apk:
You'll have to uninstall your current Maps in order to be able to install the new one. I'm not sure why it is that this is the only app that cannot be updated, but that seems to be the case. I suggest backing up the original APK first with an app such as Titanium Backup and then uninstall Maps, also using Titanium Backup. Once uninstalled, proceed to uninstall the new APK and all should be fine. You may have to restart the device after uninstalling the old Maps, though I personally didn't have to.​
7. How do I make the launcher icons smaller?
In order to make them smaller you have to use Xposed Framework + Xposed App Settings to lower the DPI on the launcher.
You can get the latest Xposed Framework HERE. If you don't know what Xposed Framework is, please take a look at this post HERE.
Follow the instructions in the link above to get Xposed Framework installed. Once everything is done, open Xposed Framework go to Downloads and install App Settings.
After done installing, go back to Xposed Framework > Modules, and enable App Settings.
Reboot your Device.
Once Done rebooting, open App Settings and select Google Seach (the blue icon) Thanks to bakercj for clarifying this one.
Turn it on and change the DPI
400 DPI = 6 icons in the dock and App Drawer Grid 5x6
320 DPI = 7 icons in the dock and App Drawer Grid 6x7
Make sure to tell it to save, and then go back to the home screen. If it didn't take effect, reboot your device.​
8. How do I add more home screens?
Home screens are added automatically when you try to add a widget/shortcut and slide your finger to the right of the screen while holding the new content.​
9. Google Now does not show up when I swipe left on the launcher:
Press menu in the launcher's homescreen > Go to Settings > Enable Google Now.
Look at the screenshots for more guidance.​
10. Google Chrome doesn't work properly:
You must copy the following file from the included /system/lib folder to /system/lib in your device:
Code:
libchromeview.so
Make sure that permissions are set to 644 on all that file.
You'll need a file explorer app with root features. I personally use File Explorer with the Root Addon as it makes it extra easy to move things around since it has a dual panel feature and also allows you to change permissions.​

Not as far as I know, once you change the DPI for the Google Search it will change for everything in the entire launcher, and since the launcher itself doesn't have an option for changing it I don't think it's possible without hacking the app, which is beyond my knowledge.

You must've done something wrong. It's the first time I heard of anything like this happening.
I fixed it by reinstalling my ROM, then installing the Google Framework, then search, then Google Home. After copying the files to system/lib, I changed the permissions to 644.
I changed DPI to 420 and now its perfect, 5 icons in dock,5 icons in drawer

How to STOP Google Play Auto Updating Itself??

I flashed the TBO black play store zip but unfortunately Play Store keeps updating and making it go white again! I have tried using a system wide black theme but none of the themes I tried (Pitch Black, Domination, etc) themed the new version of Play Store properly. So my question is, how do I disable google play auto updates? I'm on a rooted OP3 on Paranoid Android 6.0.1, I have tried the "com.android.vending-1" trick but it doesn't work because play store just creates a com.android.vending-2 folder and so forth! Any suggestions?

[PX5] Is there a way to install Google Assistant?

Is there a way to install google assistant and use it instead of google now.
I hate how google now works. Anything you say it just searches it. And for navigation/calls it takes like 5 secs to initiate the command.
I tried updating to the latest Google Play services, Google using APKMirror. I also tried installing Google Assistant Enabler from xposed. But when I say (Ok, Google) it opens Google Now and not Google Assistant.
Thanks.
Using a Dasita HA PX5 unit.
I'm also interested in this. I'm on Nougat, but when I try to run Google Assistant, it say it doesn't meet the requirements. I have the latest version of the Google App and Google Play Services, but I think the issue is the resolution. It has a min requirement of 720p, and the device is 1024x768. Does anyone know if changing the DPI setting will get around that? Or if there's any other way to make it think it meets that requirement?
Were you able to have it work when you ran it manually? Did you have to use the Xposed module to get it to work?
I attempted to uninstall the Google App via uninstall in TitaniumBackup with the hopes to install the APK from the app store since some forums I found they said reinstalling it after removing it got it working (I was thinking that before I realized the resolution wasn't high enough), but apparently that caused a boot loop. Now every time it boots up, it says updating apps, and takes ages to go 1-54 some apps, then it reboots again and starts over. So I guess I'll have to flash it again
So I figured it out. If you have the latest Google App, then you have Assistant installed. The Assistant app in the store is just a shortcut to pull up the assistant via a icon, it also tells you if your device can support it if not. If you say "ok google" and the Assistant doesn't load, it's because Assistant doesn't meet the requirements.
I installed Easy DPI Changer and set the resolution to 1280x720. Then I had to reboot, not for the resolution to take affect, that happens just fine right away, but Google App isn't aware of the change till you reboot. After reboot I said "ok google" and up popped the assistant instead!
Everything on the screen got a tiny bit smaller with the resolution change, but only issue now is the status bar icons and height are too small. This makes it difficult to tap the back button (no other hw button for that) and hard to swipe down for the menu properly. I tried playing with the DPI settings. I was able to find a DPI setting that made everything else the same size it was before the resolution change, but it seems that the status bar isn't effected by the DPI change at all. So it doesn't matter how big I make everything, I still have a tiny status bar. I'm running the Malaysk rom.
I looked all over the app store, can't find anything that will increase the status bar height. I think there's a way that involves decompiling the SystmUI.apk, but an app that would do that would allow changing of the resolution and/or DPI on the fly much more easily.
I've tried to change screen resolution to 1280x720 too and reboot, but I'm still getting Google Now and not Assistant (Assistant was released a week ago here in Italy, and is working fine on my smartphone).

Once I changed the resolution the ''Google Assistant" app stopped saying it wasn't compatible and just said I had to update google to the latest version and linked me to the app store.
I'm currently running Malaysk rom, I don't think that should make a difference. Get the Google Assistant app and see what error it gives you. All it basically does is let you know if it's supported, or launches assistant if it's already installed and supported. Beyond that I don't know what to suggest, it was a clean install of Malaysk followed by Easy DPI Changer, reboot, update of google. Then it just worked.

Thanks. I can'y find any "Google Assistant" app on Google Play, anyway I have the latest Google app installed...
I've been able to use Google Assistant in this way:
1) I changed the resolution using the "Resolution Changer Pro" app (https://apkpure.com/resolution-changer-pro/com.nexter.miniscaler). I set the 1280x800 resolution, with DPI 280.
3) I restarted the system
2) I installed the Google Assistant apk (https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...assistant-0-1-174051423-android-apk-download/)
Once you have done these simple steps you will have the Assistant icon. With this icon you can start Google Assistant.
Once you have set the voice command, you will be able to call Google Assistant saying "Ok Google".
I hope I was helpful.
Bye !!
Thank you apollo1976, it works !
But, is there parameters that we could set to preserve aspect ratio of the MTCD ? I tried 1280 * 750 but google assistant is replaced by google now.
Does it require a 1280/800 ratio ?
Thank you anyway for your solution !

Hello,
I'm glad to know that Google Assistant also works for you.
Sincerely, I only tried the 1280 x 800 resolution, but theoretically the Google Assistant should work with every resolution above 1280 x 720.
The strange thing is that the only way to recall Google Assistant is through the Assistant icon or using the voice with OK Google.
If you try to click on the microphone in Google's main app, Google Now is launched and not Google Assistant.
However, the difference between 1280 x 800 and 1280 x 750 is really minimal and is not visible on the screen.
Okay I got google assistant working with 1365x800 resolution, which is fullscreen (no black margins). Interface is a smaller than 1024x600 but still completely useable.

Perfect, other useful information for anyone who wants to use Google Assistant
Ok, so installing Google Assistant apk and changing screen resolution, it's working.
I'm using 1228x720 resolution. It's working, same aspect ratio than default and not too small.
I've also set screen dpi to 260, icons size a little bigger than default (my launcher let me change that) and also system font size bigger (110/120%) using a specific app. I'm quite happy with the result!
The only problem, as already reported, is that the only way to recall G Assistant is through the Assistant icon or using the voice with OK Google. If I press the steering wheel button associated to the "mic" function, it still starts the old Google Now. Haven't find a workaround for that...

I got it to work by using mtcdtools : first i set my voice control button to something that doesnt launch voice control (like, set it to be AMS or something like that) and then use MTCDtools to bind that to launch the assistant app.

Thank you! I never used that app (never needed), but it works. :good:
Not perfectly ( if the assistant screen is already opened and I press the button, it closes and then it opens again empty, when it should remain opened and just wait for another command), but better than nothing...
I think maybe instead of launching the app we need to bind a specific intent to it. That way we can continue conversations
I thought that too, I'll do some testing when I'll have time...

Is there a fix for the non rooted to get this feature?
Update 2018!! ROOT NEEDED
Hi everyone!,
I'm new to XDA but I'm really tech minded and always willing to learn. I found the perfect setup for people who wants google assitant with original resolution and dpi and with the modified SOFIA-SERVER.apk I've made, you'll be able to open google assistant straight from your steering wheel button ready to talk! It'll replace the src function and get google assistant working instead.
1) So first you will need to install my modified SOFIA-SERVER.apk https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ySGT5_QkA_usu7Rsxl7BZKLxGnckiipn
2) Install a file manager with root access ( es file explorer, root browser etc...)
3) Open the downloaded file manager, copy the modified apk, go to root>system>app>Sofia-1-C9-Server-V1.0 folder and paste it (overwrite or rename the old one if you want it back to default)
4) Restart head unit
5) Install Google assistant from here (DON'T OPEN AFTER INSTALL) (https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...-apk-download/)
6) Change the resolution using the "Resolution Changer Pro" app (https://apkpure.com/resolution-chang...ter.miniscaler). Set resolution to 1280x800 and change DPI to 280 then click enable.
7) Reboot
8) Open google assistant and it should be working (via the app not the steering wheel button !)
9) Once confirmed it's working, open Resolution changer pro and on the top right corner click on the 3 dots and click reset.
10) The DPI should still look weird as but personally, to put it back to normal I used joying extra tools.apk to reset dpi to 160 but you can try changing it in resolution changer pro as well.
11) Reboot and.... Done! You should now have Google assistant working with normal resolution and dpi but also be able to use your steering wheel button to open it.
ENJOY!
