[GUIDE]How to theme your 5x using RRO- NO LONGER RELEVANT - Nexus 5X Themes and Apps

Layers Manager now supports the 5x making this thread redundant. You can find the beta here:
https://plus.google.com/117376207394302665227/posts/P5Z41eL57bz
Still exercise caution when applying Layers.
Here is a small guide on theming your device using the built in "theme engine" a.k.a. "RRO" until it's properly supported with Layers Manager.
Do not attempt this unless your are prepared to do a factory reset or reflash a boot.img in a worst case scenario.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
Requirements.
Root: LINK
BusyBox: LINK (Optional but recommended for future use).
Root file explorer.
Layers themes: LINK
Layers showcase: LINK
To filter themes:
Select hamburger menu in the upper left.
Choose free/paid layers.
Click menu in upper right.
Select "Android Version" and pick "M".
PLEASE NOTE.
THE THEMES MUST BE COMPATIBLE WITH MARSHMALLOW TO RESTRICT PROBLEMS.

Steps.
Gain root.
Install BusyBox open the app and click "Install" (see screenshot below).
{
"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"
}
Use a root file explorer (I use root explorer) to create a folder named "overlay" in "system/vendor" and set its permissions to 775 (see screenshot below).
Download theme/s. TIP do this through your browser to view the package name in the address bar as it will make things easier on the next step.
example:
Code:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=[B][SIZE="4"]com.dully79.graphite[/SIZE][/B]&hl=en
Using the file explorer navigate to "data/app" and locate the theme you installed.
Inside the folder you will find an apk named "base.apk", copy the apk to your sdcard.
Click the apk and select "view"
Navigate to "assets>Files" and extract the zip/s.
Extract the apks from the extracted zip and copy the desired overlays to the overlay folder we created earlier.
Reboot.
PLEASE NOTE. THE FRAMEWORK LAYER IN GRAPHITE IS UNSUPPORTED AT THIS TIME. DO NOT USE IT.
Problems?.
Until we can view the vendor folder from recovery, here is how to fix a troublesome layer.
Navigate to the overlay folder and delete the layer/s that is causing the issue.
As a last resort, If you cannot gain access to the overlay folder we need to do a factory reset or reflash the boot.img.

Yay! Thank you sir.

Whoa so this is actually the first time I've ever heard of layers or RRO. This is a gamechanger. So a theme like this(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=bitsykolayers.vividcolorwhite&hl=en) would work? Can you combine themes? One that changes navigation bar and one that changes colors in the system?

Yes, depending on the priority of the layers we are able to stack them. If you have layer (A) that changes the status bar with priority 60, and another layer (B) that changes the same resources with a higher priority, layer B will override A.
But do your self a favour and dont apply anything that isnt officially marshmallow supported.
If you get yourself into problems you may have to factory reset, ive had to do 3 times today testing my theme.
Once we can get into the overlay folder from recovery, troublesome layers wont be a problem.:good:

Thanks for the response! Have you found any themes that support 6.0 yet?
I downloaded the layers manager app and it says it supports marshmellow already.

Layers manager does support 6.0 on most devices, just not this hence the steps to extract.
We need to wait for an update.
If you download the Layers showcase app you can filter themes that are compatible with 6.0:

Ehh having trouble getting any theme to work. I'll wait a bit until the app is updated

So I downloaded and installed busybox. I then used three different themes that were compatible with 6.0. I used root browser to create a folder in system/vendor called "overlay" The downloaded themes I downloaded from Google Play are in Data/app. I took the apk and clicked it and hit view. Then I went into assets and took the zip folder and extracted it. I took all the apks and put them into the overlay folder. Then I rebooted and nothing happened. I tried timberwolf, skywolf, and inversion UI.

It is possible to use Layers Manager to install/uninstall Layers/RRO themes. Here's how you do it:
1. Install a Terminal emulator/use adb shell
2. Remount the vendor partition as rw (read/write)
Code:
$ su
# mount -o remount,rw /vendor
3. Open Layers Manager and install/uninstall your chosen Layers/RRO theme
4. Reboot and enjoy!
Also, a factory reset will not clear any themes installed in /vendor/overlay. You can just flash the vendor image from the factory image to remove all installed themes (no need to wipe)
Code:
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img

do we need to run this command every time we want to install or remove a layer, if we dont want to copy paste into /overlay?

For the moment, yes!

I tried the above method and it did not work for me

Thanks for post

@craigacgomez Getting the theme on to the device isn't really the problem, it's removing them.
Until we are able to view the vendor partition from recovery were playing with fire.
And I never said a factory reset will remove any themes, it will put a stop to persistent fcs like SystemUI. I had to do this 3 times yesterday and twice the day before.
Edit: I forgot to say, the reason I say factory reset is because it can be done without the need for a cable and pc to fastboot flash an image.

It's not necessarily true that a factory reset will get rid of SystemUI FCs if you use a theme that is not M-compatible. But, yes, it could fix many other reasons for FCs.

X10 Theme and System Utility v1.5 (adb fix posted)

I posted directions on how to fix adb on page 4 of this thread if you are getting
adb errors.
Release Notes: Xperia X10 Utility V 1.5
*Update Read Me*
1.5 Posted See Change Log two post down
*End of Update*
I noticed that a lot people are having a hard time flashing themes to their phones.
With that in mind I decided that we need a simpler way to get themes on to our phones and have backups of the original files in case we need to go back to stock for any reason.
Some of the options in this Utility do require that you have root!
While my plan was to make a theme flashing utility I decided to add in a few extra options, as of right now you can …
1. Backup your framework
2. Restore the original theme files (Pre-installed in a folder for this app)
3. Flash a new theme to your phone
4. Backup all your installed apps to your SD Card.
5. Restore your backed up apps from the SD Card to your phone.
6. Install Market Fix
7. Pre-Install Themes Quick Install
Right now this Utility Supports installing Theme files that have Framework-res.apk, Phone.apk, and Phonebook.apk
Next update will add support for themes that edit Time scape and Media scape.
Future Updates will add support to …
1. Backup Apps to PC
2. Restore Apps from PC
3. Root (X10 and X10 Mini / Mini Pro)
4. Backup & Restore SMS messages
5. Download Themes
6. Pre-Installed Themes Quick Install Avail in 1.5
7. Change Startup Animation
8. Uninstall Apps (System and normal)
9. Support for 2.xx
10. Much Much More ….
Directions –
1. Make sure USB Drivers are installed and device is connected
2. Unzip Files
3. Run x10.bat
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Inside the unzipped folder you will find 4 folders that are called theme 1 - 4 they are empty right now.
Download the them you want to use and extract its files to the top level of any one of the 4 folders then select
Option 1 Flash Theme and then select Theme folder you want to flash and it will do it for you.
Credits and Thank You :
Thanks You Golfben / Che123 it was his G1 Utility that gave me the idea to make this for the X10 and he has allowed me to re-write his scripts and update them for the X10 so we can have a utility to make updating files easier.
Also Thank you to Bin4ry & Jerpelea who’s hard work on rooting and root method inspired me to create this app…
Thank you to all the Theme Makers who work so hard on the themes that we all want to download and use to change or improve the look of our x10.
I am looking to add in some quick install themes, so theme makers if you don't mind me making your theme a quick install theme just let me know and I will add it to next update.
Download Link : X10 Theme & System Utility
Original G1 PC Suite Che123, Thanks again for all the hard work and making it possible for me to make something just as nice for the X10.
Here is a quick guide on how to use the basic flash theme option in X10 Utility.
First Extract the downloaded file...
Then Extract your downloaded theme into 1 of the 4 theme folders
Inside your folder your theme files should be like this
Next Select X10.bat
It will open to Main Menu
Next Select Option 1
Next Select your theme folder
It will have you press any key to start
It will install the theme for you and reboot your phone (If framework was updated)
When it is done just hit any key and it will take you back to the Main Menu.
Now installing a theme is quick and easy.

Q: How is your folder structure when you unzipped did it put x10.bat and adb.exe in the same folder?
Ok I'm Checking into this now, if anyone else is having this problem please let me know.
EDIT: I wrote this before I saw your recent post, I have got both adb.exe and x10.bat in the same folder
ok i tried doing it manually and it still didnt work so i tried copying the adb.exe file to the theme one folder and i got this error 4 times http://grab.by/5H45
ok i tried it again with adbwinapi.dll copied to the theme 1 directory and it seemed to work apart from the first line which stated file path not specified however it seemed to copy all the files in the theme folder. I might just copy bother the adb and adbwinapi.dll files just incase. I found the adbwinapi.dll file in the /android-sdk-windows/tools folder.
*Edit* I just saw your post, that file should be auto detected in the tools folder, I will include it in next patch update.
Also can you tell me what error it gave you this time
That file it says is missing should be in your sdk/tools folder
What Sdk do you have installed
I have attached the adb files that go in sdk/tools
try unzipping the files into that folder then re-run the x10.bin and let me know what happens.
Did it install the theme for you.

yep it installed theme, it seems like everythings there except for the reskinned mediascape.apk and timescape.apk's but I think you omitted them from your original .bat file.
Yeah I'm working on V1.2 right now it will be posted in about an hour with support for time scape and media scape files.
ah ok, I'll download it in the morning, its about 2:30am over here! I tried adding
@adb push Timescape.apk /sdcard/Timescape.apk
and
@adb shell dd if=/sdcard/Timescape.apk of=/system/framework/Timescape.apk
to the .bat file but it doesnt seem to update Timescape or Mediascape
Yeah Please dont edit, script as it may cause errors, I will be posting an update soon,

If it throws an error try "remount System" button
4.Integrated ADB shell: Just with a single click of a button,the Output console becomes ADB shell.
5.Reboot menu: Reboot straight to recovery mode or Fastboot (bootloader mode) or reboot normally with a single click.
5.1 Remount System to r/w with a single click

13.Screenshot:now possible to take screenshots from PC (testing)-only for WVGA devices
While Flashing,there is no need to rename image files or copy pasting them here and there,Just browse to the desired file and flash it right away.Just that the path should'nt have spaces in its name.!:highfive:
Usage:
Connect your device in Fastboot mode (for fastboot flasher) or in Debugging mode (for ADB flasher and Boot animation changer) and start the program.
the features are pretty much self explanatory.
If you get stucked or error comes in,you should rectify the problem and restart the application to ensure optimal performance.
Prerequisites:
Fastboot and ADB drivers must be installed and properly working before using this program.
Other upcoming features are:
1.Build.prop editor -added in v1.00
2.Kernel flasher
3.Recovery tools
4.Zipalign
5.Odex/deodex
6.Suggest more...
7.God knows what more...
Any suggestions are Welcome and much Appreciated.:good:
This is an alpha application and may contains bugs like it won't show errors,you have to determine them by looking at shell output,but if you have connected device properly and have drivers installed,you won't run into problems!:angel:
This might not work on Windows Xp,You might need to install NET framework 4.0 or higher to make it work.
Latest Version 1.40 beta
Note:for ffmpeg converter to work,you must download ffmpeg from here and extract it in tools folder of flasher:
http://www.multiupload.nl/ZY3UKJ8BZO
Mirrors for ffmpeg:
http://www.4shared.com/archive/0wKm1az1/ffmpeg.html

For those who are unable to get their devices connected:Try copying "adb","AdbWinApi",and"AdbWinUsbApi" files from your android-sdk(or wherever you have adb) to flasher's /tools folder (replacing original ones),then try running Flasher again.

Well built programme indeed! Congrats!
Tried it out in fastboot mode and flashed cwm recovery image and it went perfectly well!
Tried it on adb interface in live mode got an error, please see the attachment.
Can I suggest an option to add reboot to recovery or simple reboot on the programme interface?:good:

More suggestions are whole heartedly welcomed....

Well built programme indeed! Congrats!
Tried it out in fastboot mode and flashed cwm recovery image and it went perfectly well!
Tried it on adb interface in live mode got an error, please see the attachment.

Android AIO Flasher
Updated to to.91
I was tired of typing commands for flashing my android,So i made a GUI Application that does all the hassle of flashing etc. easily.
It will work with most Android phones [Rooted] out there.
Right now it has following features:
1.Complete Fastboot Flasher: It can Flash Boot,Recovery,System,Userdata and even Splash Images.
It can also Help in Restoring Nandroid backups(not tested)
2.ADB Flasher: It can Flash Boot images,Recovery Image and Splash Image on a Live Running Android Device without rebooting phone
3.Boot Animation Changer: yes it can also change boot animation of Android,
Just choose any zip file of any name and it will flash it.
If it throws an error try "remount System" button
4.Integrated ADB shell: Just with a single click of a button,the Output console becomes ADB shell.
5.Reboot menu: Reboot straight to recovery mode or Fastboot (bootloader mode) or reboot normally with a single click.
5.1 Remount System to r/w with a single click
While Flashing,there is no need to rename image files or copy pasting them here and there,Just browse to the desired file and flash it right away.Just that the path should'nt have spaces in its name.!:highfive:
Usage:
Connect your device in Fastboot mode (for fastboot flasher) or in Debugging mode (for ADB flasher and Boot animation changer) and start the program.
the features are pretty much self explanatory.
If you get stucked or error comes in,you should rectify the problem and restart the application to ensure optimal performance.
Prerequisites:
Fastboot and ADB drivers must be installed and properly working before using this program.
Other upcoming features are:
1.Build.prop editor
2.APK Installer
3.Kernel flasher
4.God knows what more...
Any suggestions are Welcome and much Appreciated.:good:
This is an alpha application and may contains bugs like it won't show errors,you have to determine them by looking at shell output,but if you have connected device properly and have drivers installed,you won't run into problems!:angel:
This might not work on Windows Xp,You might need to install NET framework 4.0 or higher to make it work.
Latest Version 0.91
If You liked my work,You can hit Thanks Button,It encourages me.:victory:

I think it would be more appropriate if you could hyperlink/incorporate the links of respective recovery/boot/system images of phones in the programme.
Or even better idea is to select a phone, version, type of image required say recovery or any other and then programme leads the user to a particular webpage to download the required file and start using the programme. This option can excellent with a dedicated server to provide link in the programme itself, but manual option isn't a bad idea either.
This can be extended to bootanimations etc. too.
---------- Post added at 07:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------
Add to it the option of backing up files before writing anything on phone, (no I know you can't backup system.img ).

Actually there are just too many android models out there,so it's virtually impossible link the webpages for respective phones.
This is made to make the flashing like process more easier and user friendly.
BootAnimation changer is provided,but every phone has a different type of boot animations,so users have to search it themselves.
ADB flasher problem solved or not?
And yes,I am working on APK installer and system backup feature,and yes,system can be backed up.
@fonehacker
tried this amazing tool to flash cwm recovery for micromax funbook but it gave me permission error. I tried it in adb method, same was the case with varun's tool too.

'dev'
'block'
and 'nandg' file
I tried to change permission but was unable to change permission of nandg file.
watt to do pleas help!!

[MOD] UnBloatMi - Xiaomi MIUI Bloatware Remover

UnBloatMi - Xiaomi MIUI Bloatware Remover
I have been searching for a script to remove Bloatware from my Xiaomi Mi5s, and found a couple of different ones that do part of the job.
None were exactly what I was looking for, so I wrote a script of my own.
Although I tested the script on my MI5s only, it should be very usable for any Xiaomi device running MIUI 7 or 8.
In UnBloatMi I have combined multiple lists of MIUI 7 and 8 apps that should be safe to remove.
It also contains a couple that are less safe to remove, but the script will ask for confirmation before removing those.
Which is a big difference from other scripts; you get to choose what to remove and what to restore!
Backup location:
If you edit the script, you can change the backup location to use (by default "/sdcard/UnBloatMi")
You can of course also add more apps to remove to the list in the script. (instructions are in the comments)
It's not needed to remove files from the list, as it will not process files that are not on your device, and you can choose not to remove any app.
To Customize the Script:
Unzip the zip and edit the file under: META-INF\com\google\android\update-binary
This script is written in shell language (sh), so editing is somewhat different from "normal" EDIFY scripts that use the "updater-script" file.
I used part of the excellent template by osm0sis to create UnBloatMi
Install Custom Apps/Files:
You can also have the script install Custom files to /system folder. (So you can add another HomeLauncher, for example)
To have the script install Custom files, just add them to the Zip in "/system/app/" folder:
/system/app/YourCustomApp1/YourCustomApp1.apk
/system/app/YourCustomApp2/YourCustomApp2.apk
The script will automatically install them for you.
To use the Script:
You need to have TWRP Recovery installed.
BACKUP YOUR DEVICE BEFORE RUNNING THIS SCRIPT!!! (I recommend using TWRP Backup)
(even though the script allows you to restore your changes, something can always go wrong - press wrong button for example)
- Move the ZIP file to your SDCard, and install using TWRP Recovery
Basically, you can just follow the instructions on the screen, by pressing Volume buttons.
- The first run, you'll be asked what apps to remove. Backups are automatically made.
You can confirm each app, or choose to only confirm the more risky apps.
- If you run the script again (after testing your installation), it will detect the backups from the previous run.
You can then choose to restore the backup files, or delete them from your device.
- You can now also create a default UnBloat list, that can be used to UnBloat after flashing a (new) ROM.
It is created by checking for installed apps. If an app is not found on the device, it's added to the list.
{
"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"
}
Feel free to edit and change the script.
If you make any improvements, please let me know so I can add them to the script.
This includes reporting what apps caused problems when removed, or comments about apps.
You can find the script in: /META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary (or on GitHub by clicking the "Source Code" link below)
Instructions can be found in the comments of that file.
--UPDATE--
Added Step by Step Restore: You can now choose which apps to restore, so it is easier to troubleshoot your installation.
--UPDATE v0.2--
Added warning to SecurityCenter App (so it has to be confirmed). It caused bootloop on my device when removed.
--UPDATE v0.3--
Bugfixes, Added Apps, changed and added some app comments. Changed download link (GitHub download creates a folder too many)
--UPDATE v0.4--
Changed/Added menu's - Allows you to do more actions at once
Added apps and comments.
Added ability to save a default UnBloat list. This can be used to UnBloat after flashing a ROM.

Thanks for your bug-report and logfile!
It says it couldn't find the script, and after investigating I found the download link to GitHub creates a folder too many inside the zip.
I was hoping to have the available download automatically give the latest version...
I guess I'll have to create a release after every update, and update the link accordingly...
I adjusted the download link in the original post.
this is great! i made my own debloater script, but your is so much more elegant! i hope things dont change much when we update to 8.2....

I have just released version 0.4, which allows us to create a default UnBloat list.
This can be used to UnBloat again after flashing a new ROM.
(I'm hoping to use this in combination with OTA updates. I'll write a howto if I manage to get this all to work)
Thanks, i try it...
EDIT: i have removed many apps on my rn3se (kate), wipe davilcache but i've a bootloop :?
Good restore option
Hey @Zappo, did you already get the update to 8.2? Will you be updating the script for the new miui?

If you have found the app causing your bootloop, please let me know. I'll add it to the risky apps list.

Hi.
Big thanks for your hard work. At this moment i have personalized your list but i think that velvet.apk is a possible problem
This "# The file number doesn't have to be in order, but should be unique." is no true otherwise the script does not work well (es.: items 0-1-3-4)

You are both correct and wrong; they don't have to be in order, but do have to be ascending without interruptions (can't have missing numbers)
Ex: items 0-1-3-5-4-2 is OK.
I didn't think it would be a problem, as items don't have to be removed...
I will review your list, and add a comment to velvet.apk when I have the time. (however it didn't cause any problem on my Mi5s)
Ok, thanks.
Do you know where can i find mi apps description?

Yes, it should work for all MIUI 7&8 devices.
If software in the script is not found on your device, it will be automatically skipped.
samurri said:

I agree this kind of got lost in the code...
New software is only installed when removing bloatware the first time (or when no backups are found).
It should be automatically installed when choosing "Remove/Restore bloatware" from the first menu.
However when a backup is present on the device (folder "UnBloatMi" by default), this is skipped...
I did this, presuming new software is installed after the first run, and if a backup is already created it doesn't have to be installed again.
Hey @Zappo , found this project for redmi note 2, and it's so heavily debloated, i haven't seen anything like it. Maybe you can look over it and add a few more things to debloat? I tried to recreate it but I don't know which qualcomm apps are essential to our phone, i had only bootloops... Anyway here's the link https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-2/development/best-sot-t3434915
Edit: i can provide you with a list of all the contents of the rom, i extracted the system partition.

[MOD] NavBar Gone

I've had several requests from the Pixel 2 XL for a mod that gets rid of the navbar completely. I posted one there and if someone here is interested and will upload the framework-res.apk and SystemUIGoogle.apk, I will make one for the Pixel 2. Immersive is okay but doesn't totally get rid of the navbar. I was unable to completely extract the system.img for either of the Pixel 2's.
Here is a TWRP flashable zip for Pixel 2 8.1 once TWRP is fixed. I'd be happy to make a 8.0 zip if someone will upload the files.
Thanks, @magimog for the 8.0 files. Here is Navbar Gone for 8.0
Installation instructions for those of you that have root, but do not have TWRP. Busybox must be installed first.
1. Download the enclosed vrthemeADBversion zip and readme.txt for copying and pasting purposes.
2. Unzip the vrthemeADBversion zip to your sdcard. Rename folder to vrtheme
3. Put the readme.txt on your PC where you use adb.
4. Download appropriate NavBar Gone zip. Unzip and copy the system folder that is inside the vrtheme folder to the root of your sdcard.
{
"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_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
5. On the root folder of your phone, find the data folder and create a folder inside it named tmp
6. Copy the vrtheme folder you earlier extracted to your sdcard to newly created data/tmp folder (/data/tmp/vrtheme) these four files should be in it.
7. On PC, with your phone connected and in file transfer mode, open CMD prompt and type "adb devices" without quotes. If your serial number comes up you can proceed.
8. Copy and paste the command lines from the readme.txt (include quotes)
adb shell su -c "mount -o rw,remount /system"
Hit enter
First time you will be promoted by SuperSU to give adb permission.
Copy and paste the second line in readme.txt
adb shell su -c sh /data/tmp/vrtheme/installtheme.sh
Wait until everything runs, after a pause of a few seconds your phone will reboot and your NavBar should be gone.
Please do! I am unable to get Swipe Navigation to work otherwise. Thank you!

1. How would I reverse it and get it back? Use magimog?
2. Does edge squeeze for Google assistant still work if the screen is off?

Flashing this mod should create a restore zip on your sdcard in a folder called ozop. Save that zip.
Here is what @THEbigSWEEN mentioned on the Pixel 2 XL thread:
"So just wanted to throw this out there, if anyone was like me using immersive mode until we had this mod you might have noticed Active Edge wouldn't work unless the navigation buttons were showing, and some reported occasional issues with the screen not coming back on right away when trying to unlock the phone. Well after installing this mod the immersive mode settings persist, so even though I don't use Active Edge much, I was trying to play around with it earlier and noticed the squeezes weren't registering. Then I remembered the issue with immersive mode, so if you want to be able to use Active Edge again you will need to enter in a command prompt: adb shell settings put global policy_control null* "

Thank you! I'll have to look through that thread and find out what is the reversal of that adb shell settings if I restored back to normal (if another adb shell command is required).
edit: And if this only affects screen off or helps the screen on issue also. From what I'm reading, it sounds like it fixes the screen on if navbar is gone to use active edge.

[Root] 5/5T Dynamic Change Library for GCam without Breaking OOS Cam. {DEPRECATED}

{DEPRECATED}
This project won't release a new version because I see no reason for that since modified lib v.2.3 is working fine on OP5/5T without breaking OOS functionality.
Hi guys,
After intensive try. I’ll glad to tell you that I just found the way to fix GCam Front facing camera portrait mode without using Magisk module. (which break Face Unlock functionality in OOS)
Instead, my method will dynamic change library only when needs to use GCam and you can revert to default binary, then you still can use Face Unlock.
THIS MOD WAS TESTED WITH OXYGEN OS OREO ONLY
Warning:
Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, your phone won’t boot. Use it at your own risk
Prerequisite:
1. Root with Magisk (My app/script only test with Magisk)
2. Busybox NDK (Magisk Module)
3. My file.
4. Disable all lib fix module. (prevent confliction)
5. Recommended Gcam APK: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/
How to:
Ver 3.5.1
1. Download my file here View attachment FixGCam-by-aillez-Unified-V.3.5.1.zip and don't move to another folder. (should be in Download folder or XDA folder)
2. Install this app from the archive (FixGCam-by-aillez-Unified-V.3.5.zip)
3. Allow storage permission of my app. Long Press the app and choose App info > Permission > Storage > Enable it.

4. Open the app and tab Read me/Tutorial button and read it first.
5. Tab Create required file button.
6. Wait until it shows toast about "Required file has been created"
7. Auto-Mode is Fix binary and automatic revert after screen off. (It'll ask for root permission)
8. Manual Fix and Revert is for a user who wants to trigger it by their design time. (It'll ask for root permission)
9. Pick GCam dialog will show after you fix binary (either Auto-Mode or Manual) PS. Only supported for Pixel2Mod and Pixel3Mod by Arnova8G2
10. If you think this mod helps your life better and it worth for some donation. Please help donate
Troubleshooting.
1. If you get "Archive not found" when tab Create required file >>> Download My file first.
2. If you get "You don't have a required file" >>> Tab Create required file button.
3. If you get "Busybox not found" >> Install it.
4. If Create required file doesn't say anything to you. (report by some users).
You need to create a folder name "FixGCam-by-aillez" in internal storage and extract file from archive to there. (As a workaround) Folder structure should be like this.
and you should not tab Create required file.
5. After I fix binary Gcam still don't work/Capture Pink image. What should I do?
Sometimes Gcam already running before change library and load default binary. Fc Gcam and try again will help.
Updated: Should be fixed in V.3.5.1

Can you try this link?
how do I Import project??please make a step by step video of how to install or atleast write a step by step guide please
Hey! It works amazingly well....
So, I was thinking about triggering the revert task to exiting Gcam rather than screen off. The only problem is that it detects exiting Gcam if you go view your photos from within the camera app. I can't figure out how to make it work. Anyone with more Tasker knowledge know how to make this work... I.e. tie the fix to launching the app, then get it to revert on closing the app? I know there are downsides either way really.
Working great! Thanks ?

I use Nova launcher and I've set it so that if I swipe over the Gcam icon, it launches the Tasker fix. I modified the Tasker fix to launch the app after it successfully patches. So to run Gcam I swipe. To use it again before I turn off the screen I just tap the icon.
in my case the camera app doesn't take any picture in portrait mode with the front camera
No errors when the task is execute and works well the restore for the face unlock...but I can't take the photo
OB3 + Arnova's v6_beta15
EDIT: It's necessary to enabled hdr+ front camera
Thank you very much man I really prefer face unlock over fingerprint and I often use my camera (thank God we have gcam to replace stock camera) and it was a pain to have to reboot to get either gcam or face unlock.
It's working for me on OB3 with arnova Cam and other version of gcam.
Good to see it's working for you
I'll try to write a script to run without needs of Tasker since not everyone using Tasker.
But I can't give you ETA.

How about using Tasker App Factory to create an app of your profile which can be used by everyone.
