Hi! Guys Today I will share a guide on How to achieve Pixel features and look on almost any android device running android Nougat.
What you need?:- A rooted Nougat device, Root file manager(I recommened ES), Brain
Lets start:-
Go into root of your device using your fav. file manager and search for build.prop. Usually it lies in system folder but if not found search it. Open it with any text editor and add this two lines at it's end.
ro.product.model=Pixel XL
ro.opa.eligible_device=true
Now reboot your device.
After your device turns on Clear Google App data.(Clear whole data and not cache only).
Now long press on your device to launch Google assistant:laugh::laugh: .
Now another step.
Open playstore and install pixel launcher and wallpapers by google.
Now you need Link2SD.(Install if not already Installed)
Now open Link2SD find & convert Pixel launcher and wallpapers into system apps and reboot again. (This step enables Google Now on swipe).
Now Download the boot animation app by Jrummy from playstore and install the boot animation zip i provided or manually push it into your system where your boot animation is stored.(Normally it's stored in system>media)
Copy audio files and replace it with your default files in system>media>audio.
Now if you want more follow:- (Not recommened for CM users but i hadn't encountered any problem on my CM though )
Download substratum from Playstore and Pixel Ui which is similar theme for this app and apply it via the substratum. Reboot
Cm users can skip many steps and use any pixel theme and icon pack from Playstore and apply it via Themes app natively installed.:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
It's Done. Now enjoy all features and look of Pixel on your device.
While i encountered that google assistant doesn't recognize your voice I can't do anything for it now. I will keep looking to make it work but it will take time.Sorry.
You can also just download the launcher and wallpaper and install it. It still works that way. Also you can manually push them into system if required. But i suggest you to use bootanimation via substratum only as i pulled the zip file from PixelUi.
Here is a thread on Pixel experince you may want to take a look here too if you want to avoid so much work and go for flashing zips:-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...xel-experience-launcher-dialer-t3478907/page1
Tips:- Signup for google beta tester on playstore and update your google app to latest beta version for seamless google assistant work.
You may add those two build.prop at the end and don't change your default model number. It will still work.
Boot animation have a huge chances to work normally as the just conatin minimal animations and cover center of screen. So try it out and tell me.
This is my first guide. Please PM me or quote if you have any doubts before rating my guide bad.
Thank me if you liked my guide and my assistance.:laugh:

i couldn't install the google dialer apk on my honor 8 phone (FRD-L04). Tried sideloading various versions of it downloaded from apk mirror, nothing get installed.
Could somebody help out if you have managed to install the same
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.dialer
Google store says my phone isn't compatible.
Are you rooted?
Is your phone rooted? It's the only way this will work.
Take this apk, use a root file explorer (I like solid explorer) and copy it to root/system/priv-app. Then edit the read/write permissions ( I usually enable everything).
You can also use link2sd to make the apk a system app.
Then just reboot your phone and you should be good to go.
You'll have to go to apps, settings, pick defaults, and choose it as the dialer.
Also, if you are rooted, you can then delete the stock dialer, but be careful, you might delete the wrong thing and then no phone for you. (I had that issue, but a kind forum member was able to get me the missing apk)
If somehow it DOES get messed up, you'll have to reflash via dload, or get the correct apks and place them on priv-app (again, if you're rooted)
thanks for the reply.. i don't want to root my phone though..

yeah same here...
Not sure how the compatibility check works..
Google has published these contacts and Phone / dialer app in play store. but its not installable in all phones..
i followed another thread..
and installed google contacts sync apk, (gave it all permissions) then contacts apk and then dialer apk, this way i am able to get the dialer app installed (but its version 3.x only, other versions i couldn't get install),
Now i got the Dialer icon (blue) one it opens the regular dialer interface. but when i make call the interface goes to Honor 8 dialer app interface.. not sure how this works..

I know this is a few months old...
I was looking for a higher version number of Google Dialer that could be compatible with the Honor 8.
To the best of my knowledge, this is the only version compatible: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...71529-nonnexus-android-apk-download/download/
I've used this very same version on my Moto X Pure.

This is best compatible with AOSP ROMs.
Wasn't the first question about installing Google Dialer on an Honor 8? It was even stated that they tried to sideload multiple different versions as well... from APK Mirror... the same place I shared the link from. I merely wanted to state that the version I linked to is the last version that I know personally works on phones that aren't Nexus/Pixel. All you can do is try it or not. It works. Just download, install normally, set it to default app.
The dialer installs just fine on the honor 8. I'm running it right now. There's a few threads about how to do it correctly here on XDA. First rule, search before asking.

This isn't a new thread - it's months old. Someone just resurrected it by adding a new comment. And yes, the app can be side loaded onto the Honor 8, but it will only be the dialer and contact list UI. The in call UI will remain stock and caller id will not work.
Results with rooted devices may vary though.

I have not tested it on a OP3T since i dont have a 3T but it should work as well

dustintinsley (for the idea and the base from his OP5 module)
if it didn't touch anything from kernel etc. then should its work on op3T too
also Its only for Hydrogen OS/Oxygen OS?
anyone tried it on other roms (AOSPA oreo/Nitrogen OS)?
is the module for LOS - Based roms or for AOSP and what android version ????

When I try and install via magisk it fails, when I install via TWRP it installs fine - think you have the above the wrong way round
The phone pops up an error each time I open it, says the phone is not compatible and may not work - quite annoying to see it each time. Anyone else have this issue?
When can you give support for twrp?i have super su not magisk

Id love a TWRP flashable zip too (better than Magisk imo)
I'm working on a TWRP flashable I'm just running into the issue with the method I used to remove the pop-up in dialer isn't working in TWRP only Magisk I'll release the TWRP once I figure that out
I tried it on RR and I can't make and receive calls. Almost at all. How can I uninstall it? Is there another way apart from flashing my rom again ?

If you installed it via Magisk just uninstall by removing it in the Magisk installer.. I'll create uninstallers for both Oos and AOSP today to restore the removed apps.

I flashed the zip to install it and then I removed the module from Magisk. Still phone app crashes though.
Edit: I gave manually the permissions to phone app and it seems to work now.
Hi ! I use it on ExperienceOs based on OxygenOs 5.0.1 and work fine but this custom use busybox and don't know if are on permissive SeLinux ? But they had an App to choose it.
After clean Flash and use FreedomOs 3.2.1 based on OxygenOS 5.0 I had always the message in Google Dialer "The Dialer may malfunction on your version..." I had test it again after use Magisk mod "Google Framework" but always the mistake with Google Dialer ??? I don't know why ? Rrrr. I had just remove it in Magisk and use Oneplus App but I don't understand work fine with ExperienceOs and not with FreedomOS perhaps just OxygenOs ? work on 5.0.1 and not on 5.0 ? I stay the update of FreedomOs for see.
Another I had test in my computer to remove Google clock after extract it and compress in zip but won't work with magisk ? It's not a magisk mod.
How can remove exemple Google clock because Oneplus Ckock is better with the calendar option for alarm
But thank you a lot for your work it's the only one work on OOS Oréo
Hi, if I flash it via magisk and I remove it after it will restore stock deleted applications ?

If you remove it after you just loose Clock And Calculator App ! But you can install it with Apk mirror for have Oneplus Clock and Calculator.
For Dialer just choose Oneplus Dialer again and work fine for me same for Oneplus Contact don't uninstall it.
I do to reinstall Google messager too because I use it and when I remove the mod Google messenger are delete too.
The mod had work fine with the custom rom ExperienceOS R32 Stable OOS 5.0.1 no message when use Google dialer all work fine and can apply substratum theme
But I had change and return to FreedomOS 3.2.1 OOS 5.0 and always message in Google Dialer
I stay a TWRP zip or update
So quick update... I'm still working on this I've hit a few more roadblocks I want to fix before releasing anything else
Mms on messages sends but can't use the mms part of messages weird also I'm still having issues with twrp with the dialer message trying to fix that still I hope I'll have something to release this weekend but not 100% sure..

Thanks for the info/update, and for bringing this to us. I love this mod, and prefer using Google's Dialer and Messages over OnePlus.
When you say "Mms on messages sends but can't use the mms part of messages", what do you mean? I thought I was able to send/receive MMS through Google Messages just fine. Are you talking about group messages, pics, etc...
I'm not currently on an OOS ROM, but will probably be moving back soon (today, probably) and can try to verify that for you if you want.
Thanks again!
Hi ! Thanks for your mod. I had rollback to ExperienceOs R32 and flash with Magisk your mod and work fine.
But I had a question if I want Oneplus clock and uninstall google clock how I do ? Please.
I had install the apk of Oneplus clock but isn't System App and google clock are System App and can't uninstall it.
Thanks
I could only find an older version that installed ok.....

The beta doesnt work (FC when I want to launch the number pad or search through my contacts) but the stable version 18. Works totally fine
I just installed it from the Play store, along with Google contacts, and set them both to the default. Works fine.

Interesting. You downloaded the Google phone app from the play store? Did you flash the Google framework via TWRP? Because without that it doesn't work
Edit: Or am I missing something here?

Probably worth mentioning that I'm running Leedroid, so maybe that has something to do with it?
What i did was download the Google dialer and contacts for OP5/5T from the magisk app. After you download it get a file manager and extract the whole folder. Go to the system->priv-app and delete the OPInCallUi folder. Than rezip the whole folder and rename it so you know which is which. Go to magisk manager app->modules than click the plus sign on the bottom find your modded zip and flash. I have had this mod since Feb 28 and it has updated from playstore with no issues and works like it should.
Edit: on Leedroid rom current stable relaease.

Hi dear, did you find a way?
The link posted above version v23.0.208561757 works fine for me to get it installed you'll need to uninstall any other version of google phone you have installed
you will need to set it as default, as well as in the app info screen you'll need to give it write over and modify system settings permissions
I've been running it on Stock non rooted 8.0 on my US unlocked U11 since the version came out.
Has anyone tried this (link) magisk module from the OP5 on the 6?
I've tried this patched apk (link) but it had some bugs (actions in notifications don't work, no nearby places, etc) which made it unusable.
Yes, magisk version works perfectly

I know its a no ob question, but how can I get magisk on my One plus 6. What's the benefits of using the google dialer over standard Oneplus 6
Visual Voicemail is broken on the Google dialer, at least on T-Mobile. Both magisk and non-magisk version for me.
Have to use default OnePlus dialer for now. At least it has an option for swipe up to answer now.

I have a thing at the top of the T-Mobile VVM app that says "29 days remaining for trial" or something to that effect, so I assumed it requires a plan add-on.

Voicemail is the only thing not working for me. New voicemails don't even show in the tab within the dialer for some reason.
When I tried the magisk module I had no dialer screen, I mean no interface when calling or receiving a call. Any ideas?
Does anyone know why exactly the Google Dialer won't just install normally on our device? Originally I thought it was because the existing dialer was the same package name but that actually doesn't seem to be the case. I'd be interested to know what the actual reason is.

Mostly the reason behind this is our phone is not having Android one and it doesn't belong to Google.
any google phone does not work properly on my oneplus6 with oos5.1.8,
substratum cannot apply black theme !!
but the same substratum theme can easily applied on my nexus6 with AOSP 8.1.
I miss features of the Google Dialer but the default theme for it is so very opposite to the system theme that is just... It was so easy to set the system profile to a certain colour palette, the clash in style just makes the Google Dialer unusable for me!

Actually I did this and ever since, apps are not showing up in the installed apps list. They are installed, but I have to find them manually. If they have an update, it won't show in the update tab in play store, but they can be update, and they will show in the installed apps after the update.
Guys I found this working method, now I can update google dialer via play store and no bugs yet.
