[Q] CM Theme on Stock ROM?

Hi Forum, i don't know if this is the right section to ask, but i would like to know if there's a way to apply a custom CM Theme to a stock ROM.
I already know about HK Theme Manager Xposed module, but it only finds themes with the old CM Engine, not the newer ones.
I would like to have the Android L theme over my stock ROM, because in this moment there isn't a custom rom that satisfys me.
Thanks in advance for the answers

A ROM with editable navbar (4 buttons+long press) exist ?

Hello all
I am on OPO since first days, i love them on 4.4.4 Heizenberg
but I want to update to 5.0.x
My only problem with this is that I only find Vanir Exodus as ROM with editable navbar, but venir have some annoying bugs on my OPO
enybody knows other roms with editable navbar please ?
I tryed some roms, but very long time waisting to backup, wipe, test rom for navbar, restore.....
Thanks a lot !
PS : why 99% of 5.0 OPO roms are on CM12 ? the custom rom who want to go far avay of google and earn $$$$$ with future own app shop ? and was the Only dev team who never want to implement navbar LongPress actions( never explained why...) where was no AOKP, AOSP etc ROMS ?

Just a stock deodexed rom?

I've been searching through the S6 forums and haven't come across what I'm looking for and I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
I am currently using a Sprint Galaxy S6 and running an outdated custom rom ("Ramified OH1" and UniKernel v8), however this was the only option at the time to get a deodexed rom to run Xposed. What I'd like to do at this point is revert my phone to a stock rom based on the latest official release and have it deodexed so Xposed will still work. (I'd also like to try my hand at theming eventually)
My trouble is, all I can find is a handful of custom roms with mods I don't care for (I don't see why anyone would want a centered clock or this 3minit mod...I don't find either appealing) and a few semi-stock roms that don't match my current firmware version, so I don't even know what's safe to flash at this point.
In some ways, I'd also be satisfied if there was an AOSP or similar rom that would work on the S6, although I'd rather not lose the quicksettings bar that is part of TouchWiz roms. (At this point, the quicksettings bar is the only TouchWiz feature I care about, so I'd be happy with raw Android so that more Xposed mods could work)
I'd appreciate any suggestions or help that the community can offer on this issue.
At the very least, if anyone is familiar with theming an S6 nearly-stock rom, I'd appreciate the help to make some changes to some elements of my current rom to get a style I might like better.

RN5 Global Vanilla Camera App

Hi Guys,
Let me just say beforehand that I did try and read threads with this topics this but I admit I'm a bit lost. I see that most camera apps for RN5 Global are for unofficial roms, but I'm still on vanilla version.
Is there any working camera app that work better than stock camera app? Even if it's not 100%. I know Arnova's for instance are great and I understand it doesn't work great.
For the kind soul that takes the time to reply, many thanks!

first of all, shouldn't this post be on discussion section?
now, what do you mean by vanilla? miui? its not vanilla. it's xiaomi's own custom made rom. they modified vanilla aosp same as other custom roms you see. here you should say you're on stock rom or miui rom.
and unofficial rom means? all other custom roms? like PE, AOSiP, AEX etc.? they are officially supported by their respective devs. and here you should say you're not on aosp based rom or custom roms.
and now for the camera part. stock miui camera is considered well enough and some say works better than gcam.
if you want gcam you can try different versions and see which works for you. as for now, arnova gcam is partially working and a dev is working on a fix magisk zip. that means you need root by magisk to apply that. that'll fix front cam issue that we're facing now.
and if you don't know, you need camera2api enabled for gcam to work. to enable this you need root. you can unroot after enabling this if you please so. and you'll be vanilla again :laugh:
there's also nokia camera port

Notch issue in Custom ROMs

Hi eveybody,
I recently bought a Redmi note 6 Pro and since the begining i wanted to use a custom ROM.
I unlocked bootloader and tried few custom ROMs yesterday (Havoc, crdroid, resurrection remix, ..) I decided to stay with RR but it's not the point.
In all ROMs everything is working well as expected. But I have a small problem that i would like to discuss about.
How is the notched status bar handled in all customs ROMs ? In all the ones i tried status bar work like if there was not a notch on the phone, is there a way to solve this problem ? Or is there another ROM (non-MIUI) that handle it ?
In stock or Xiami.eu it works well and there is even a mod for MIUI ROMs.
Did anyone tried this mod for other ROMs ? And does it work ?
Thank you in advance for your answer
Remy
