have new update and please try again:victory:

Now is working but closing sometimes after some period of time.
Suggestions and one bug:
1) app crashes when click calculator (maybe because my device don't have one in standard and Im using 3rd apps for gallery, music, video and calculator)
2) add option to change web browser (Im using opera as main app and chrome for some cases)
3) add option to change SMS app (notification options) because Im using Textra, not stock standard app
4) add more themes (it would be great if we can change colors by some pallete or hex codes)
5) add polish language xD (I can help with this)
Thats all for now, nice job

Thanks a lot for your suggestions.
We will keep improving this little widget thing.

Very nice and impressive works! Big thanks to the developer!
However, the app significantly causes reboot to my phone (note 5 with Android 6.0).
I really like this app...but I decided to uninstall it since it makes my phone reboot too often...
Hope the developer can fix this bug in the future...I hope it is a rare case for me only...
Thanks!

~INTRO~​
Music has and important place in our lives and we know it! In a party... Yeah Baby! Rock On! , In a sad state? Why not listen to some sad tunes? Music is everywhere... And since the introduction of android our boomboxes have evolutuionized into mobiles and we carry our music everywhere. That's why there are wonderful mods here at XDA to Improve your device's speaker capabilities. Let me Introduce to you the Viper4Android by @zhuhang and Audio FX By CyanogenMod(Now LineageOS).
~Features~​
-VIPER4ANDROID-
*Tune your speakers to your hearts content
*Interface layouts for different types of users
*Ability to modify you bluetooth speakers and dock output
*Specialised drivers for audio
*NEON Support
*Universal Support
----
-AudioFX-
*Easy to use and clean UI
*Easy to learn
*Different tuning abilities
~Review~​
-Viper4Android-
Open up the app and it welcomes you with a list of options. On the left top corner we have the hamburger menu, which allows you to check the state of the processor and much more! Opening the app for the first time, It asks for root privileges and BusyBox installation. Then it installs the driver after which you'll have to Re-Boot your device. After Re-Booting, you can alter the output of you audio. The UI Is clean and and neat, there are no crashes at all! And whats more... It Supports Android N!
Oh! And the Viper Bass Is excellent!
-The Neat UI, Which helps you alter the audio output
The are 3 ways of viewing the APP.
1. Beginner
-Only some of the options are shown, which is easy to learn and use
2.Intermediate
-Some more options are shown
3.Advanced
-All of the options are shown, this recommended for the masters of audio tuning.
-This shows if viper4android is working like it should be
-The Hamburger menu expanded
-The excellent viper bass!
Well nothing is perfect, So is this APP. There are some problems that do crop up during usage...
-On some samsung devices, the driver fails to process the audio on the stock player.
-The driver wont process if your SELinux state is enforcing, Use SELinux Mode Changer to fix this problem.
-You have to use either V4A or AudioFX.
OVERALL - 4.6/5.0:angel:
----------
-AudioFX-
This app is built-into the CyanogenMod ROMS. It is exclusive to CyanogenMod. This app isnt as feature rich as Viper4Android but it definitely does beat many of the other apps in modifying the audio output. You can't make the Speaker Gain its output nor Change the spectrum to improve the audio quality of certain files, What it does is... Offer you a eq to modify the output... You can also choose from one of the given Reverb Options. The UI is so good that Lighning-McQueen himself will fall in love with it! It is so easy to use and very functional. The hamburger lets you choose from tuning the speaker, headset etc. The App is really useful for beginners.
There is also an option for bass boosting and Virtual Surround.
OVERALL - 4.5/5.0
~I did not encouter and kind of bugs with AudioFX, except when the driver of V4A Conflicts with it.
-The UI That Lightning will love
-------------------
~VERDICT~​
Now that there is an app for everyone, I would go with Viper4Android cause it allows for more precise and raw tuning. AudioFX Is also a very good app but it doesn't allow for precise tuning like Viper4android. But, Get this- V4A Is Superb For Headsets and Bluetooth speakers whereas AudioFX Is Superb for phone's speakers! Whatever it is, it is a matter of personal taste.

[APP][10.0+] Automatic Dark Theme for Android 10

Hi!
I just published an application that solves a problem with Android 10: making the switch between the light and dark theme automatic.
It is already possible to make this switch using Tasker or an ADB command, but this application has some significant advantages:
- The theme switch only appears when the user locks his phone, so the current activity will not be killed;
- It is possible to choose the time slots for each theme;
- It keeps working even after a phone restart;
- The interface is user-friendly and the configuration simple.
I have already planned to add in a next update the possibility to change the theme according to the sunrise and sunset, and an option to hide the application in the app drawer. In the meantime, feel free to share with me your feedback and ideas for new features to add!
Auto Dark Theme is free, ad-free and without in-app purchase, and you can download it on the Google Play Store at the following link : play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cannic.apps.automaticdarktheme
I apologize for not being able to post a direct link but the XDA prevents me from doing so since my account is new. You can always find the application by searching for com.cannic.apps.automaticdarktheme on the Play Store.
Sorry for the link but thank you for reading!
Note: It is necessary to grant WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS permission via ADB with the following command:
adb shell pm grant com.cannic.apps.automaticdarktheme android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

Quick question, what happens if we manually change to dark mode, will the app keep working?

Thank you for asking.
Yes, the application keeps working. If you manually enable the dark theme, the light theme will be enabled at the specified time. And vice versa.

Can You make same app for Android 9? It has 3 theme options: light, dark and based on the wallpaper. I currently use Changer (it.simonesessa.changer) to change wallpaper to dark at 8pm so device theme change too, but it would be nice to change it based on time without changing wallpaper

I forgot to say that Android 9 have "Night mode" option in Developer Options:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This setting is automatically set to "Always on" when Battery Saver is turned on and vice versa.
When "Always on", normal "Device theme" setting even set to "Light" is not used:
Also, "Night mode" value is used in apps that have "Set theme by Battery Saver" option selected.
(About differences: developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/look-and-feel/darktheme#changing_themes_in-app)
Maybe with those informations I provided you can make app that change "Night mode" option based on time?
Greetings

The app is interfering with the Phone App on P3XL, any fix coming?

As development stopped @cannic?

Thank you for your feedback! I've been very busy lately but a new version will come in the very next few days (this week). This version will fix the issue with the phone application.
Sorry for the time it took to fix the bug and the problems it caused.

Android 8?
Hey, im searching for a similar app runnig on Android 8.
Is it even possible for android 8 to get a systemwide dark mode?

Hi, I noticed that sunlight times do not trigger the dark mode. I sent you an email about that but I think have a discussion here is faster and better

i am on havoc 3.0 - LG G6 H870 and automatic DarkMode!

Optimize Ambient light
Seems like the Ambient light trigger for automatic dark/light theme is draining my battery especially during the night.
Is Auto Dark Theme always keeping track of Ambient light?
A solution to optimize it a bit would be to check if the value from the sensor is 0 lux for a long period of time then either slow down the cycle checking the sensor or stop it until device wake.

Android theming- Use Project Themer/Iconify without adding 100 apks to you device

If anyone here uses Project themer or Iconify, you probably know by now that each of these adds hundreds of apks to your device. Personally I only use a few specific features in these apps, so why have 100 apks added to your device when you only use 5 or 10? Each of these apps require root, and use magisk to properly theme SystemUi, etc..but there are certain add ONS that require Lsposed, however you are forced to give magisk permission to add all overlays and reboot your device before using just the Lsposed related features, for example the QS headear clock and QS header icon mods.
The stock market opens soon so I'm not going to get crazy here, so please use common sense for some of this because I won't go overly in depth. You will need two additional apps here aside from whichever of these theming mods you may be using. One of these is an amazingly useful app made by one of the kings of theming @DerTyp7214
And @RKBD The app is called Overlayer and can be found in the play store.
[Root] Overlayer - Apps on Google Play
Enable and Disable Android-Overlays
play.google.com
The other is your choice. But it needs to be a root file explorer app. I recommend Root Explorer ( the best file manager of all time IMO) or Material Files, because Android 13 has some strange changes that won't allow access to some files that should be accessible with root. Material Files by @HaiZhang is the only file manager I've found so far that can access all of them.
Well need a starting point for this, so we'll assume that you've installed one of these theming apps and picked your desired addons. That's where the Overlayer app comes in. Overlayer shows all overlays on your device and which ones are active and which are not. So I've used Project Themer and here's an example of what Overlayer looks like for me
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Notice what I've circled and that I'm only using one of these, at least under this section of overlays. Now look at Project themer where I've added my items of choice and we can clearly see the correlation
If I want to still be able to choose between a few options here, I'll need to keep the overlay.apk #124 and all of its variants AT, GE and so on. You will also find overlays under SystemUi and Android System, as well as Settings possibly in the Overlayer app. You simply want to take note of which Overlays you're using, which you may use, and the rest we can DESTROY. Using your file manager, we go to the directory Data/ADB/Modules and find either the Project Themer module or Iconify module, open it....then go to System/Product/Overlays and click on select all, and then carefully go through them and unselect the ones you need and delete the rest. Here is what I have remaining.
Maybe 10 out of 100 overlays that were originally added or more. I just wanted some subtle transparency, the QS header clock, my dual sim carrier messages that scrolled over the entire top of my header to go away, and a thinner brightness slider. I didn't need all the unused apks on my phone. Here is my device.
So That's basically it...like i said...just use common sense. This can be used for any overlay related mod. Thanks @DerTyp7214

It's joke?

Not at all, I'm not sure I'm understanding correctly...but these guys are the developers and designers of Rboard theme manager, Rboard patcher, the Mixplorer theme creator and more, and RKBD does some designing for LibreMobileOS, or LMODroid...a pretty bad ass LineageOS fork with a wireless desktop mode
