Dark Stock Substratum Theme for Oreo and Andromeda - Nexus 5X Themes and Apps

Hey. I was trying out some themes on my Nexus 5x after Andromeda was released but am having trouble finding a dark stock theme that works across the system.
What I have tried:
-Piereligio's Themes - These work great on about everything but the quick tiles. I contacted the developer, but he says it's a problem with the phone.
-Sai's Oreo Black Theme - This one's quick tiles work, but notifications are white or grey.
-Swift - This one's quick tiles also don't work.
-Orange Kitten Pro - Just tried this one and it is working great so far as long as you are okay with orange accent. No problems with system icons or notifications.
I'm curious to see what others have tried and got to work.
Thanks!
-Joel

OnePlus empty status bar

Updated my OnePlus One to 5.0.2 via the ota update today and lost my status bar. I've changed every option and setting in status bar and nothing seems to bring it out of hiding. I've searched the forums and haven't found this issue, so I apologize if this has been solved elsewhere.
Are you using another theme or is it the stock theme?
If it's not the stock theme, try to change it and reboot your phone.
I got the same bug, while I activated the XPosed-Module of my theme (Dark Holo Green).

Dark Theme Android 8 Vs 8.1

Hello
When I purchased my Pixel 2 I used to have a true black theme when using dark wallpapers.
Since upgrading to 8.1 the dark theme is smoked black (a bit translucent). (E.g. I'm now in Tapatalk writing this I pull down the quick settings and I can see this text behind it).
Is this something that really changed in 8.1 or I have a bug or something?
I can't remember if the settings app was black before...but at the moment is light. Same thing with the Google Feed cards, dark wallpaper but white cards.
Sent from my Pixel 2
Not a bug, this is something Google changed in 8.1 - solid black changed to a rather meh slightly transparent black.
You can use Substratum to change it back to a solid black if you want (though a lot of black themes seem to have irritating glitches with at least some notifications, so some trial and error may be needed).
The settings app was always white. You do need to use a 3rd party tool to change that.
I don't use Google Feed, so can't answer that last one.
Thanks. This week I've tried modifying this using the Andromeda and substratum etc. But I didn't liked it because the notifications were also changing the colour etc. But mainly because of the customisation, I'll prefer to keep things as stock as possible.
Anyway thanks for confirming this was an actual change in 8.1!

How to make icons small likes your plzz tell to us ..
I've just tried your NOTE8EVO_V5_BETA_II(OREO).apk while attempting to bring dark notifications to my S7 Oreo stock and it works fine but, despite the incredible work you've done I find it too far from Material_black I was used. So would you be so kind to suggest me a simple way to get a black them with black notifications that works on S7 with stock Oreo?

[Theme] Vivid Themes Thread (previously Vivid Green)

Hi all,
I have a few themes in this thread with a few features shared. These include:
- Google Feed added to Home​- Translucent volume bar (except for Full Black variants)​- Circle and Square icons available in Icon Shapes​- WiFi Icon changed (except for Vivid Google Feed)​- Matching Icon Badges in Home Screen (except for Vivid Google Feed).​
To summarize the themes available:
- Vivid Green: Applies the Velvet Green accent (both night and dark)​- Vivid Teal: Applies a dark teal accent​- Vivid Google Feed: Doesn't change the accent (so stays Blue for most users) but adds the features from the other themes.​- Full Black varients: For both Vivid Green and Vivid Teal, there is a Full Black variant which sets OLED Black in a number of UI elements as well as YouTube.​
Vivid Teal is my personal favorite (although Vivid Green looks great with Dark mode). In addition, for those NOT using the official Velvet UI update (but have installed the Accent Color change apk's), using the Vivid Green theme allows the perfect use of the Accent Colors menu since Green becomes the default accent.
NOTE: Since these themes are not uploaded to the Play Store, you will need to install using a File Manager (or app other than the default Downloads app). Thank Google for that . Also, if switching between a theme and it's Full Black variant, make sure to uninstall first or it may not work as intended.
Let me know if anyone has any issues and enjoy!

Edit: Added "Vivid Green (Full Black)". Pay attention to install instructions as it won't work if "Vivid Green" themes are "updated" between variations.​​Edit 2: Changed Youtube background to full black (when using the Full Black variant)​​Edit 3: Inadvertently activated Velvet switcher on some devices (which is buggy). Fixed​​Edit 4: Changed Wi-Fi icons​​Edit 5: Changed Vivid Google Feed to not change volume bar (use Vivid Volume Bar if desired) and also changed notification dots to match the regular blue accent​​Edit 6: Removed pop-up modification (applied to old volume bar) from Vivid Google Feed. If desired, install the regular version of Vivid Volume Bar​​Edit 7: Added V2 variants. Provides the option for both Google Feed and Smart Bulletin in Home Settings. Have also included a V2 variant to disable Suggested Apps (bottom row of apps in the recents screen) for devices which don't have the option. ​
Thank you
After a suggestion on a new color, I've created another theme to add a darkish-teal accent. Features are the same as above (where applicable). Don't install both of the "Vivid Teal" themes at the same time but can be installed alongside the "Vivid Green" themes.
​Edit: Mixed up some files, fixed the black notifications (on "Vivid Teal" only).​​Edit 2: Added the accent to the same apps as Vivid Green (Gallery, Music, QMemo and File Manager)​​Edit 3: Added a fully black background on Youtube (when using Full Black varient)​​Edit 4: Inadvertently activated Velvet switcher on some devices (which is buggy). Fixed​​Edit 5: Changed Wi-Fi icons to a more ASOP style.​

Wow, thanks again. I really liked the first one. Will try this out too. Thanks again.
I've updated the non-black versions of my themes (Vivid Google Feed, Vivid Green and Vivid Teal) to add a transparency effect to the volume bar. See the screenshots below.
Edit: Converted this to a standalone version (apply from Icon section of theme settings). I've also included a version which disables the "Adjust by App" option and makes the volume bar much shorter.
Edit 2: For Velvet UI users, I've also created a similar theme called "Vivid Volume Bar (Velvet UI Only)". This makes the volume bar background transparent, removes the gradient color and to change color depending on night mode. For non-Velvet UI users, this will have no effect and you should use the other theme.
Edit 3: "Vivid Volume Bar (Velvet UI Only)" updated to v2, uninstall old version first. Day mode colors adjusted to be more consistent depending on the background. Also added the night mode popup windows feature initially provided on "Vivid Monet Green" (available on the Play Store). In addition, there is now a navbar hide version if desired. Non-Velvet UI version is not being updated because I cannot test it anymore (my phone has the Velvet UI update and cannot be reverted) but let me know if anyone wants to try it.
Edit 4: "Vivid Volume Bar v3 (Velvet UI Only)" updated to v3. Changed the night mode icons to be white instead of dark grey which improves visibility. Was used in Vivid Monet Green for a while so finally adding into this add-on.
That's nice. I'll be able to keep an eye on game on-screen while adjusting volume now. Thanks for the improvement
Hi there..thanks for the update..How to get thev transparency effect in volume bar? Do i have to re install?

Remove the old one and install corresponding new one. Once you press the volume key after applying new ones you can see the transparency in effect.
Vivid teal its great. Thanks.
Will you bring new colors? Dark + Orange could be great!
Bit of a small update on both Vivid Green and Vivid Teal themes:
- Changed Wi-Fi logos on both status bar and QS tile. Took a bit of work so not sure how many others I'll be changing. Let me know if there's any ideas on styles.
- Added colored app notification badges.
- Fixed the backgrounds of the icon selection in settings.
Since I've had a few recommendations on Orange themes, I'll make that my next one. In the meantime, there is the Orange accent from the updated Velvet settings apk which I think was posted on Reddit.

It's nice of you to further improve the ones you already posted. Using your green theme from the day you posted. Thank you for your time and effort.
Just applied the new ones. To me these look lot better than the old ones. Cheers
"Vivid Black Notifs" adds some of the features from my full black theme variants and is designed to be used alongside any theme. Apply from the "Icon" tab in the theming menu. There are two zip files and an app included:
- Vivid Black Notifs (No Navbar): Adds full black (or black with notification dividers) notifications and hides the light white pill on AOD.
- Vivid Black Notifs (Navbar): Same as above but also hides the navigation bar.
- Vivid Black Notifs (Navbar Only): The "Nav Hider Only" version will just hide the navbar (useful for full gesture navigation) while "Nav Shrink Only" will revert the navigation bar handle to the pre-Velvet UI update size. Won't do anything otherwise.
These are variations of the same app so make sure to uninstall it before installing another or it may not apply properly.
On a sidenote, I've also been working on an Android Studio template for UX9 themes. It's still pretty daunting for beginners but should help heaps in getting started. I'm still finetuning it but would that be something you'd be interested in? Let me know
Edit 1: I've updated the themes to also adjust YouTube's background to be OLED black (same as the Full Black varients of Vivid Green and Teal). Also added in a preview picture. These are the V3 versions.
Edit 2: The updated V4 versions now have the popup window color follow night mode. This feature was first added into my theme "Vivid Monet Green".

Been a while but here's some other theme stuff I've been working on. I've already shared this on other platforms but posting here as well.
Firstly, for anyone not on the Velvet UI update, I've ported the accents to standalone "Icon" packs. They act the same as themes but can be used alongside them so that you can use with any theme you like (like the Green accent). Apply using the "Icon" tab in the theming options, revert by re-applying any regular theme. In this zip is the colors in the accent menu available in the updated Settings (Green, Violet, Orange and Pink). You can install the Velvet Settings app to gain access to this accent menu but this is an alternative.
Similar to above, I've also ported my Full Black themes to standalone "Icon" packs (like the accents). There are two zip files and an app included:
- Vivid Black Notifs (With AOD): Adds full black (or black with notification dividers) notifications and hides the light white pill on AOD.
- Vivid Black Notifs (With AOD & Nav) V2: Same as above but also hides the navigation bar.
- Vivid Black Notifs (Hide Navbar Only): Only hides the Navbar (no change in notification color).
These are variations of the same app so make sure to uninstall it before installing another or it may not apply properly.

Hey, thanks for providing us with more options. I very much enjoyed your previous ports. I hope you are having fun making these, which will make it worthwhile. I don't know about Android Studio template, but definitely looking forward to it.

I really like the 'Hide navbar only' option. Very cool, thanks
I'm on LG G8 Android 10 update with the new volume bar, is it just me or the Vivid Black Notifs (with the hide navbar option) if I use full gesture, there will be invisible navbar that blocks some of the button at the bottom of the screen

Do you encounter that issue in certain apps? On my G7, I can't seem to replicate any touch issues in the navbar area when hiding it.
