Quick Reboot: easy, fast, simple. All-in-one reboot manager!
*** This app requires root access to work ***
If you do not have a rooted device can't be used. If you are new to the world of Android™ modification and rooting, head over here for further info.
Introduction
Your buttons are wearing out or broken?
Advanced reboot options are not available in your ROM?
Bored from being forced to use ADB or terminal to enter advanced modes?
Forget everything! This application gives you access to all the advanced reboot options in one single place, you don't need to type commands in terminal neither do anything else and your buttons are safe.
Quick Reboot provides a powerful shortcut system and an all-in-one widget for your home screen too! Reboot has never been faster.
Starting from the 1.4 update, shortcuts are available! Head over your launcher's actions/shortcuts menu.
Main features
Restart
Enter safe mode
Fast reboot (user interface and apps)
Reboot to recovery (TWRP in FIsH too!)
Power off
Restart user interface (SystemUI)
Screen lock
Reboot to bootloader (fastboot mode for supported devices, download mode for Samsung)
Additional features
Configurable shortcuts to run specific reboot actions
Widget for LG Smart Bulletin (G3, G4, G5, G6, G7 (except G7 One), G8, V10, V20, V30, V35, V40, G Flex 2)
Configurable icons for the app and the all-in-one widget
Two themes to choose for the app interface and widget: light and dark
Show and hide reboot actions individually
Download
The app is free, supported by non-blocking silly ADs to provide the best user experience! . You can install it from the Google Play Store or from XDA Labs.
Info
Fastboot mode (reboot to bootloader): its behavior cannot be handled by this app who only provides a way to enter it.
The device may not allow the user to exit it without ADB, for example in case of non-removable battery or unavailable reset by long pressing the power/lock key.
In case you are stuck in fastboot mode, please follow the steps below:
Install ADB and fastboot from https://goo.gl/abtKRv
Make sure you have installed the proper USB drivers for your device and connect it to the computer
In a terminal window, type fastboot reboot and press enter
Alternately, let the battery discharge until auto power off.
Safe mode: Android will temporarily disable all the user apps including Quick Reboot. To exit it, reboot or power off your device with the built-in power menu accessible by long pressing the power/lock key.
Beta versions
Do you feel brave and want to test pre-release Quick Reboot versions with new changes and features in preview, all in an (spoiler! :silly unstable environment? I want you! Feel free to join the beta program here.
Translations
If you can help me to translate this app in more languages, please contact me via PM or via e-mail at [email protected].
Reporting issues
Found issues? Please do not report them in this thread, rather contact me via PM, via e-mail at [email protected] or use "Support" menu inside the app. Thank you! :highfive:

This application gives you access to all the advanced reboot options in one single place, you don't need to type commands in terminal or do anything else, all it requires is root. Do you have it? Great, a single tap is the way!
Available options:
- Normal reboot
- Enter safe mode
- Fast reboot (UI/apps)
- Reboot to recovery
- Reboot to bootloader*
- Power off
*fastboot mode for supported devices, download mode for Samsung
For normal reboot and power off you can choose between the instant action or PowerManager call, if the latter is enabled these two options will act like if you pressed the options in Android's power menu, usually opened by long pressing the power off button. Other options will use "instant action" way. A widget for your home screen is included.
Download
Play Store
A Pro version is also available:
No ADs (in free version a banner is showed only in main app, not in the widget)
Ability to show or hide the reboot ways individually (changes are applied in both main app and widget)
Light and dark UI for app and widget (choose it in Settings)
More coming soon
To celebrate its release 250 promo codes to download Quick Reboot Pro for free are available, updates included, request yours at http://goo.gl/forms/1jZpz0p8ca. All the codes will be sent to the winners once all 250 have been assigned.

Nice app. I've been using a similar one, but somehow that stopped working. Is there any chance you will make separate widgets for each function - reboot, power off, recovery etc.? That way I can set my Nova Launcher gestures to incorporate one of these, instead of the whole app. So I can, for example, reboot my device by just double tapping the screen. Thanks!
P.S. - I tried to use the Request feature but I consistently got an error message:
great app

Hmm... That looks weird, I have just tested right now and there are zero issues in both client and server side. Most probably that was a temporary server issue because I received some reports today, therefore seems to work fine now. Thank you for the report!

Of course, shortcuts are available starting from the 1.4 update published one hour ago. The free version includes the one to reboot as demo, however I don't know if Tasker supports Android shortcuts out of the box as I never used it.
Time for an update! Version 1.4 changelog:
Shortcuts! You can now add a shortcut to run a specific action.
Android 7.1 Nougat support
Added Ukranian language
Improved compatibility and performance, code rewritten from scratch
Minor text updates
Widget: fixed confirm dialog's window color, minor user interface updates

Thank you so much for your newest version 1.43 with ... TWRP-in-FisH recovery reboot ability. You have done all of us with locked bootloaders who have finally been able finally to install a custom recovery on our LG G4's with TWRP-in-Fish a big turn by incorporating the ability to reboot into it from your app's menu. It works like a charm and is an awesome addition.
Great work - screenshots attached.

Hi, I have a rooted stock S4 I can't get into recovery for anything.
Download mode no problem but power+ for recovery never works, I get the blue text in top left but it just boots normally.
Thought this might save me but the same, blue text followed by normal boot.
Any ideas why my S4 is such a pain?
Some time ago, Quick Reboot Pro became free. Today I have published it on XDA Labs too, in place of the previous "Quick Reboot". This thread has been updated as well.

Love your app and appreciate all you've done.
One thing I would like to see incorporated, if possible, would be to have the same action settings reflected in the smart bulletin as are set in the app. I only have and use the Reboot, Fast Reboot, Recovery and Power off actions in the app itself, but the smart bulletin reflects all the available actions rather than the one's I have selected to show in the app itself and when rushing have sometimes clicked onein smart bulletin that I don't use or simply doesn't work, e.g., Fastboot with a locked bootloader on the LG G4 H812.
Thanks again,
S

Also, the full version allows the user to define up to 120 menu-shortcuts.
Requirements: Only for devices that have longpress search functionality (for example not for the Galaxy S)
Droid x/Droid 2 users: first install "HomeSmack" to use the long-press search functionality for this app
Instructions: When pressing-and-holding the search key button for the first time after installing the app one will see a menu like this:
Check "use by default for this action" and choose LaunchKey to complete the action.
To do: implement more system functions, assign a customizable menu to the longpress search key (done).
Open for requests.

Thanks. I like to know if adding some system functions (as described in the first post) will add anything substantial to this app. I myself don't have any need for it, but maybe other users?
For me, a great function to add would be MEDIA_NEXT to skip to the next track without having to turn on the screen

Actually, that's a great idea (for devices that can turn on the device with the search button). On the Desire HD with its capacitive buttons this isn't possible, unfortunately . Can you turn on your device with the search button... ? And when you hold it, will it launch one of the assigned apps?
doesn't seem to work on my droid x. long pressing the search key doesn't seem to do anything. a short press brings up search though.

Have you assigned the app to the long press search action? It's standard Android, tested it on several virtual machines on the emulator.
Would be weird if the droid X doesn't support that. That would be inconsistent indeed.
I have come across some interesting behaviour.
I have an HTC Wildfire, stock 2.1 but rooted, with LauncherPro as my homie.
I installed Launchkey, configured the app I want to start by long-pressing (namely, Camera), hit back, then long-pressed search. It started Camera, as it should. No problems there.
But while I was inside the Camera app, I long-pressed it again, to see if it opens another camera on top of Camera so I can shoot in 3D. Alas, it did not! Instead, it opened the HTC Sense UI (which has been off for about a month, since I use LauncherPro).
What gives?

It looks like that some apps can override the long press key binding if they get focus. In some apps search is triggered also when long press the search button (for example in Root Explorer) .. It seems in your camera app they decided to launch Sense. In my camera app the press-and-hold button is disabled (Desire HD)

yea i set an app. set a few different ones, but no luck with any.
Not working on Galaxy S
I have rooted 2.2 JPM and it doesn't work. It installs and lets me choose an app to start but wherever i try i brings up the search rather then the app i chose. I've tried with several apps and still not working, re-booted several times to no avail.

No, the search button doesn't wake the device . I have an HTC Hero CDMA so I have the hardware buttons.
I think it wont work with the Galaxy S unfortunately because it doesnt have a dedicated Search Button. The search is activated by long pressing the Menu Button...

Sorry, what I meant was, did you choose LaunchKey to complete the press-and-hold search button action and set it to default?
After installing LauchKey you should get a window like this when you longpress the search button:
If not, uninstall the app and install it again. Android should give you this dialog (Standard Android behavior that I can't influence)

MIUI for Beginners
Source: http://en.miui.com/a-10.html
Already flashed MIUI ROM? OK, pick up your phone now, let’s start our happy journey of MIUI ROM.
The first step: selecting apps
Various apps will greatly enrich your cell phone, so firstly let’s select the apps to your taste. Use the Android Market and download what you would like. If you are using a backup app and restoring apps from a previous ROM, only restore the apps and not the data. Otherwise that will create a lot of force close issues.
Tip: How to copy files from the computer to the phone? First connect your phone to your computer via data cable, pull down the notification panel from the top of the phone, click “USB connected”, and then click "Turn on USB storage”.
After copying, do not forget to select the option of “Turn off USB storage”, otherwise "File Manager” in the phone will not be able to find the sd card, as it is being occupied by the computer.
Now I have a lot of apps, how to put them in order?
All apps successfully installed are listed on the desktop, however, they may not be in the order you want, how to put them in order?
Long press an app icon and then you may move it freely. When it is moved to the screen border, the screen will automatically switch to the next screen.
How to add a screen? Use two fingers to pinch on the desktop to enter screen thumbnail mode. Then you may add or delete screens.
How to delete an app? Long press the app icon you want to delete, drag it on top of the trash box and click OK to delete it.
The second step: let's make your phone different.
A phone without style is nothing remarkable, so let’s make your phone different!
Changing wallpaper: Click Menu button on the desktop, select “Change Wallpaper” to replace the wallpaper. In addition to the existing wallpaper in the phone, thousands of pieces of wallpaper are also available online.
Changing theme: Themes make great changes to your interface style. Click “Theme Manager” on the desktop to select the theme you like. Also, more online themes are available online.
Scott's Newest Theme: http://goo.gl/MnqMZ
Selecting ringtones and more: click “Settings” on the desktop to set call and notification ringtones. In “Personalization” under “Personal” tab, you may find more options.
The third step: it’s time for some advanced techniques!
Well, you are no longer a beginner now, so let’s learn some advanced techniques.
Adding widgets on the desktop: press the Menu button on the desktop, select "Edit Mode", and then click the icon on the upper right corner to access the interface of “Add Widgets”. Choose your favorite widget on the top, and then drag it to the screen below.
Using folders to manage desktop apps: in the interface of “Add Widgets”, drag [Folder] to the desktop. You may drag multiple apps into folders to classify them. After opening the folder, you may click the edit icon in the upper left corner to rename the folder.
Using toggles panel to improve efficiency: drag the notification panel down from the top, click "Toggles" to go to the toggles panel (It goes to the toggles panel in default of notice.) On the panel are listed the most commonly used toggles, you may click to quickly enable or disable a toggle. Long press on the icon will launch the settings for that icon.
Guest mode: enable the “Guest Mode” toggle in the panel, and your calls and text messages logs will be hidden, and all installed applications cannot be removed. You may have a try when you need to show your phone to guests or children.
Importing contacts or binding accounts: you may use some apps to import a batch of contacts, or bind Google account directly in "Settings"> "Personal"> "Accounts & Sync Settings" to sync contacts at any time.
How to print screens? Press "Menu" key and "Volume Down" key at the same time to print a screen. The printed image is saved in the directory of MIUI in the SD card.
How to copy files from the computer without using the data cable? In case of a Wi-Fi connection, enter “File Manager” on the desktop, select the tab of "Remote Administration" to start the service, and then you will get an address. Enter the given address on the computer, then you may copy files without using a data cable!
After seeing the port to the Nook Color using CM7, I was expecting this, not this fast, but expecting it. Can't wait to check it out
amazing, cant wait to flash
Done! Looks great! Highly customizable. But I'm not familiar with miui, looks like I'll have to get used to no app drawer?? I don't want to install Adw or anything else like that until after I get a good feel for the battery life.
Edit: Forum title changed. This comment and next are for 1.7.22

Video
It wont play videos on the sd card or on the internet(4 example youtube wont play, flash support doesnt play video) or record any video.
But everything else works.
Needs some tweaks, but awesome nonetheless!
First, just wanted to say thanks to the devs for being boss and showing some love to the D2 (lord knows it needs it). It's much appreciated.
Second, here are some of the bugs I have encountered with this version of MIUI:
1) Camera/camcorder don't work at all.
2) Auto rotate doesn't work in some places like the launcher or dialer (Not sure if this is really a bug).
3) Holding home from the lock-screen doesn't launch the torch. The screen shows up but there is no light.
4) Holding menu and volume down doesn't take screen-shots.
5) Vibrate on key press for the virtual keyboard (this applies to third party ones too like Swiftkey) doesn't work.
6) YouTube videos won't play in the YouTube app or in browser.
7) Boot animations wont change in the theme manager.
8) Some apps won't install at all (i.e. Tweetdeck) and wont show up in the market.
9) Can't boot into recovery using power button + vol down. Have to use bootstrapper.
Any suggestions on how to fix these would be appreciated. Of course, if I have to wait until Friday for the next release, then so be it.
TBH, none of these are that major (except for maybe #8), so no rush.
edit: Found one more bug.

Go to apps in settings and wipe cache on the Market and reboot...the fix does work.
I take it there is no way to use widgets with this ROM?

Long hold the screen you want widgets on.
Any way to get rid of the Verizon Wireless in the notification bar?
Anyone get screen shots to work?

I'm back to CM7. Seeing all the apps spread over the screen panels, as well as the nonworking bluetooth connection make this a virtually unusable ROM for me. I now know that I would never switch from Android to IOS.

Hi everyone!
If you happen to be a fan of split-window mode in Android Nougat, there is a good chance that may find this nifty tools App that I have been working on - Parallel Windows for Nougat (Android 7.0 Nougat exclusive)
What it does? 3 things as of now:
#1 Provide an onscreen shortcut to toggle split-screen
#2 Quickly launch any new App in split-screen mode through a floating mini App drawer.
#3 Mirror an App!
YES! You can run two Windows of an App, two windows of almost any App on a phone but MANY windows of an App on tablet, as seen on the screenshots above.
The set of tools can be accessed by swiping from right edge of the screen, couple of screenshots of the App:
Here is a video demo (please note that it's on an emulator, expect some lags here and there.) In case you're only interested in checking out how the mirroring of App works, jump to 03:14 in the video. And if anybody can shoot a quality video, please do and upload to this thread.
Please subscribe, share the link of this thread with your Nexus friends (running Android Nougat.)
Thank you for going through my post.
DOWNLOAD OPTIONS:
Download from Google Play Store (Receive updates automatically)
If you like the App, please leave a rating on Google Play Store.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION AND SOME IMPORTANT NOTES ON THE APP IS LEFT ON THE THIRD POST.
What's changed/new in v2.1_Alpha:
* The white background of "RECENT ACTIVITY" panel is now toned down.
* Recent activity removes Apps which are uninstalled.
* Added/changed UI texts wherever needed.
What's changed/new in v2.0_Alpha:
* Significant improvement in the UI controls, you should feel everything super snappy now.
* App drawer now supports fast scrolling.
* You can now adjust the placement of the hotspot to trigger Parallel Windows side bar - length, width, location (up/down/left/right.)
* A new panel is now available, 'RECENT ACTIVITY' - whichever App you launch/mirror using Parallel Windows, goes here. This panel will have more additions in future - shortcut to launch multiple Apps, widgets etc.
What's changed/new in v1.2_Alpha:
* The App is now battery ready - uses CPU for only the few seconds when you interact with it.
What's changed/new in v1.1_Alpha:
* The floating App drawer should be super responsive now.
* After swiping in left the tools menu, you can tap anywhere on the screen to exit (earlier you had to swipe back to the right.)
* Added quick sharing option.
If you have an interesting use case for the 'mirror' feature on a particular App, please post a screenshot of your phone/tablet. I will include them here to showcase.
Installation instruction and important notes on the app
THE SET-UP:
Download the .apk and proceed with standard installation.
Launch the App, read through the notes, check off boxes, hit 'continue'.
In the main Settings page, hit the first switch 'Permit to draw over other Apps', it will take you to a new page, enable the permission and hit back.
Again, in the main Settings page, click the second switch 'Enable Accessibility Service', you will be take to the Accessibility Services menu, choose "Parallel Windows for Nougat" from the list, and enable it.
[OPTIONAL] Go back to the Settings page, adjust the width and height of the hotspot (the hotspot region will be highlighted with every change.)
HOW TO USE:
Once everything is set-up, you can swipe from the middle of right edge of your screen to open the menu.
The menu has 3 buttons, starting from top they are: App Drawer, Split Screen Toggle and Mirror respectively.
Clicking the middle button (Split Screen Toggle) will, well, toggle the split-screen mode of your device.
The top most button (App Drawer,) will let you open a App drawer right on your screen. Clicking any App here will launch it side-by-side to your existing App. If your device is already in split-screen mode, then there is no gurantee on which side of the screen will the App launch. Also, one important thing to keep in mind is, this App drawer is exclusive to launch Apps side by side, it will NOT open any App in normal full screen.
The third button is called 'Mirror'. 'Parallel Windows' for Nougat is totally inspired by the magical functionality of this button. More about it in the next section.
THE MIRROR:
CASE 1: You're not in split-screen mode. Now, if you swipe from right, hit the Mirror button, it will ask you to "Select an App to mirror". You can tap anywhere on the background App that is visible through the transcluent black area. Clicking it will mirror the App, give it a few seconds to complete the process.
CASE 2: You're already in split-screen mode and you want to mirror one of the two windows (or many incase of tablets.) Again, swipe from right, hit the mirror button, tap on the App which you want to mirror, visible through the translucent black window.
There is small probability that the Mirroring didn't do its job well. In that case, you can just try again. If it doesn't work the second time either, and you really need to mirror the particular App, all you have to do is, close all other Apps, and try mirroring on the App again (it should work almost certainly.)
Do note that, not all the Apps are mirrorable. Parallel Windows will indeed let you know if it can not mirror a particular App. In most of the cases, if you think an App has a use for mirroring then most likely it will be available for mirroing.
Looks awesome
This is how I've been saying Samsungs multi window should be toggled for years! Looks great!
What I always wanted was split window in LANDSCAPE that showed 2 or 3 windows scaled as if it's 3 full screens. Like 3 devices. Smaller keyboard, smaller phone app, but clear enough on these super high res screens we have.

You can expect that to happen in future version of Parallel Windows, you can define how you would like to use the screen space.

Hi! The minimum and maximum for the App is Android 7.0 Nougat. As it is completely based of the split-screen functionality in Nougat.

Can not install apk on Cm13 ,6.0.1

Gesendet von meinem SM-G900F mit Tapatalk
Hello everyone!
The App is finally up! I spent countless hours, continuously day and night for so many days now to arrive at this Alpha version. Hope it works as good as it does on my emulator. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
Fun fact: The development of this App was entirely based on an Android emulator. Because I don't have a Nexus. So, if you downloaded the App first and installed on an Android Nougat device, you're probably the first person every to try this App on a real device. Are you the one? Let me know

Well i don't have a Nexus, but i guess i am the first one to download it on my AOSP 7.0.
The app works exactly as you described. Didn't find any bug yet but hey i'm using it since last 5 mins. I don't usually do reviews but i left you one on Google Play Store (actually my first one). I hope you get a real device to develop.
Kudos! Keep up the amazing work.
EDIT: The Sidebar closing animations are a bit laggy. I have some suggestions:
1. Clicking on the empty space to close the sidebar rather than dragging it back.
2. Change sidebar hotspot positions to user defined places on either right or left edge of the screen.
I know this app is still in alpha but just my two cents. I'll go back to lurking now.

Wow! Didn't expect the first review from India as it would be 3+ AM when you tried the App. Thank you! I acknowledged your review on Google Play Store as well.
Also, your suggestions are much appreciated. The sidebar opening may 'feel' laggy, as it waits for the user's swipe to complete from hotspot towards left. But closing should absolutely be smooth, can you clarify that? Or if it's really a visible lag, a small 3 seconds screencast would help me clarify a lot.
And as the development progresses, the hotspot will be super customizable. I have intentionally kept it super minimal to get some quick feedback on the core features.
I have quite a bunch of real exciting features planned for future versions, now if only I can slow down time.

I just tried it again. It could be due to OmniSwitch. I have OmniSwitch assigned on the same place too with double swipe. I'll try again tomorrow and send you a screencast if it happens. I've to go to sleep now. Like you said its 03:30 am here and i got a job to do tomorrow.

Hello friends!
I developed an App called Fingerprint Scanner Actions, because I never understood why I could use my fingerprint scanner only for unlocking my device or other security reasons.
I mean, this is an additional button... it should be used like one.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Fingerprint Scanner Tools is an Android App that makes it possible to execute certain actions when you touch your fingerprint scanner and your device is unlocked.
This App is available from Android 6.0 (Marshmallow)
Famous actions that can be executed:
Open app-shortcut
Execute a Tasker task
Toggle the quick settings/notification panel
Launch the default camera app
Start the flashlight
Launch a certain app
Turn off the screen (3 different methods)
Take a screenshot
Swipe actions:
Same as above
Learn how to create custom fingerprint actions with tasker - you will be able to do ANYTHING possible in our big and wide android world.
My friend Mat from NotEnoughTech created an awesome tutorial how to do that. Have fun!

YouTube Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7kFgwIdU5k
Q&A:
Q: Why is my notification bar expanding so slow?
A: This is a bug in Android 6.0. Please try this workaround:
Enable developer options
In Developer Options go to "Animator duration scale" and set it to 0.2x (you can set it also to 0, then it is going down super fast)
Lock and unlock your device for it to take effect
Q: Why am I unable to unlock my device with my fingerprint after locking it with the action "Screen off" and "DeviceAdmin"?
A: Please use another screen off method, you can choose it in the app. Android prevents us to unlock the device with the fingerprint when it has been locked with the so called DevicePolicyManager. They said that they don't want this feature to be misused.

If you are able to add some special features it would be awesome. On my Honor 5x there is this feature with stock Rom, as I am running CM 13 now, I really miss it:
Show notification panel - Slide down on the fingerprint sensor to display the notification panel, double-touch to clear the panel, and slide up to close the panel.
Is this somehow doable?

Hi,
showing the notification panel is already added (but not online yet).
I'm searching very hard for a solution to receive the swipe gestures of the sensor but until now I didn't find one.
If anyone can help... please contact me.

Yes, just choose "launch camera" as the action.
@Flextrick
The App works good, thx.
I have two suggestions:
1. Probably most of the users - like me also - , just want to see the notification Panel to check for Messages received.
Currently there is only the Option in your app to expand it completely to open the quick Settings menu. Maybe you can add in your next Version just the option to open the notification Panel?
2. The Speed of the downmoving notification Panel / quick Settings menu when use it with Fingerprint and your app, is very slow compared to when used it with regular downsliding on the Display front.
Is there a way to fix this also?

Hi,

2. Can't image why this should happen, I only send the request to Android, so there must be something wrong in CM13. I have Stock Android 7.0 and it works like a charm.

Amazing Support! Thank you very much! Looking Forward to the new Version.
I know now why it is so slow, I researched a bit about it.
It is a bug in the Android 6.0 System Framework.
For all having the Problem with the slow downmoving statusbar, here is a solution to fix it:
1. Enable developer options
2. In Developer Options go to "Animator duration scale" and set it to 0.2x (you can set it also to 0, then it is going down super fast)
3. Lock and unlock your device for it to take effect
For me, this solution worked.

List of available themes ready for Samsung thanks to @pimpmaneaton: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/help/collection-substratum-themes-compatible-t3635673
ATTENTION: You can still run Substratum Legacy (shows in the toolbar) without the addon, but it may not work with Samsung devices, so you must get the addon app!
How to apply Substratum themes
First, you will need to install the apps listed above
Download a theme that doesn't rely on Android System or theme ready Google Apps...so find themes like Swift Black or Swift Dark on Play Store.
Once you install the theme, Substratum will throw a notification saying that a new theme has been installed
Open the theme in Substratum and click on the app (one at a time for now only) and click the button on the bottom right.
Click Install and let it compile. It will ask to install an APK to your device. Install it.
You can switch to that application and see if it is themed. If it isn't, manually force close the app in Settings or reboot your device.
(ATTENTION) It is HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended NOT to apply Android System and SystemUI elements as of yet UNLESS your theme supports it and shows "dangerous overlays" by default. For themers, all you have to do is set @bool/ThemeSupportSamsung to true.
Current Bugs
- none
How to recover?
You will have to boot up in Safe Mode (comes default on every device)
Reboot your device
Hold down the Volume Down key while booting up
You are now in Safe Mode
Go into Settings -> Apps, then find the overlay you think is messing up and uninstall!
How to recover if the above doesn't work? (Credits to Evozi)
You will have to boot up in Safe Mode (comes default on every device)
Turn on screen and press power button. It will show "Shutdown", "Restart", "Emergency Mode"
Turn on "Emergency Mode", keep spam the checkbox so you can tick the checkbox to proceed the agreement. (phone is super lagging)
While you are in emergency mode, you have very limited access. Open any system app and go to recent task list.
Long press the app task, press the info icon and app detail page will appear.
Hit the back button and it will show your whole app list.
Find your overlay and remove all its storage and phone permissions.
Deactivate Emergency Mode and now you are back to TouchWiz.
Uninstall the overlay app.
Instructional video, thanks @DaKoin!
Beware this is beta testing. So please be patient and read the instructions properly.
Glad to see this.... Thanks for the hard work.
Any free themes that somewat give the same experience like swift black or drk

Requirements:
Be a member of our Telegram group: https://t.me/SeXstratum (This group is HIGHLY moderated, please heed the rules and moderators!)
Have a Samsung device running Nougat (Android 7.0+)
Root is NOT required
How to apply Substratum themes
First, you will need to install the APK from the pinned section of the group (under the group name)
Download a theme that doesn't rely on Android System or theme ready Google Apps, so like Swift Black or Swift Dark on Play Store.
Once you install the theme, Substratum will throw a notification saying that a new theme has been installed
Open the theme in Substratum and click on the app (one at a time for now only) and click the button on the bottom right.

Reboot or force close the app in Settings to apply the theme to that app.
(ATTENTION) It is highly recommended NOT to apply Android System and SystemUI elements as of yet.
Current Bugs
- Detection method of installing apps is not done yet, so you can't uninstall from the theme, only by using the Overlay List (open the drawer and click Overlay List)
How to recover?
You will have to boot up in Safe Mode (comes default on every device)
Reboot your device
Hold down the Volume Down key while booting up
You are now in Safe Mode
Go into Settings -> Apps, then find the overlay you think is messing up and uninstall!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Found another way to recover if you install status bar stuff. Remove your sim tray
Just want to say thanks for the work....definitely make me not miss root now
First, thank you for this. Second, I'm slightly skeptical on how well this works but can't wait to be proven wrong.
Third, I tried to boot into safe mode to see if I could before I screw anything up, and when I hold volume down when booting, it hangs on my carrier's splash screen for like 5 minutes and never boots to safe mode. I'm on US Cellular (don't laugh...). I was just wondering if anyone else had this little issue with booting into safe mode?
EDIT: I have an S8+ and just realized you have to tap and hold the Power Off button (on screen) to get into Safe Mode - note that it seems to take forever to boot, just be patient with it.

You have to join their Telegram group. Then click on the 3 dots in the upper right and hit Files. Kind of a shady way to hand out an apk, but I'm not one to talk.

Our full operation runs through Telegram but soon it will be on Play Store too.
The reasoning behind this is because we have build bots to automatically compile an updated APK and send it to the chat when I push a commit, also a nice way to directly contact the devs (me).

That's understandable. Apologies if my comment came off as rude.
It probably goes without saying ... but proceed with caution with this and backup ahead of time. I threw caution to the wind and installed a system overlay that my S7 didn't like apparently and left me with a completely black/blank screen. Booting into safe mode just gave me the words "Safe mode" at the bottom but still a black screen. No ability to remove the bad stuff. No option left other than to wipe & restore.
Works great though! Installed some nifty overlays to test beforehand. Looking forward to seeing this project evolve. Thanks dev!

Just curious, how did you wipe and restore if it just gave you a blank screen in safe mode? I'm proceeding with caution on this as well.

Hmm, you applied Android System didn't you? I gave a warning already in the main post.
Yeah, don't touch those unless you're dealing with Samsung Substratum specific themes.

Sounds very nifty. However, I will wait when it's out of beta and everything is working to it's fullest.

Yeah, I did system and system overlay. I just wanted to test it. I'm not complaining. Just wanted to test and report back.
Download a theme that doesn't rely on Android System or theme ready Google Apps, so like Swift Black or Swift Dark on Play Store.

Anyone have recommendations for other quality themes that fit this category? Thanks!

Swift Dark / Black , Reverie , Grvy , PitchBlack etc... They all should work fine for 3rd party apps & Google apps. Just don't tinker with System apps.
