So I was looking at some videos of the Oreo features on the Galaxy S8 and S8+, and I notice the stock Samsung Keyboard had a GIF button and a Sticker button in the messages app. After installing Oreo on my Note 8 I went to look for those but they are not there, I only have the emoji, drawing and handwriting buttons instead, I don't see an option to add them. Any help?
this is what I'm talking about

No way to add it. It's been removed. Fingers crossed it will actually be in the official release. As a substitute use GBoard if you really desire the use.
it would be possible to get it from the S8 and install on the Note8?
Same problem here. The GIF addon to the Samsung Keyboard on the last Nougat builds were my favorite feature. I flashed all of the unofficial Oreo builds on my ATT Note 8 and the GIF was removed and its absolutely a game-changer for me. Back to GBOARD.
Have any of you been able to install one of the 5.xx Samsung Messages apps from apkmirror?

For people on oreo trying to install messages and new keyboard (with stickers and gif), have you tried installing the apks after a factory reset? I've read that it's possible to do that to manually update apps in system without root...

I have not moved on to Oreo yet. I have tried installing after a fresh reset on 7.1.1 without success. I can install the messaging app through adb using -l -r but I cannot install the latest neural keyboard.
Edit: on my Note5 I got swipe and predictive text to work by first installing one of the older neural keyboards then installing a 5.xx version
What error if any does it give?
Where is the apk from?

For the keyboard when trying to side load the app I get a simple app not installed error. In ADB I get a container error.

Well i tried what you stated in your post but didn't work....so then i took an older version of neural and noticed a folder in it that wasn't in newer versions that had some language data....so i 7zipped that folder into the newer apk and tried that......system didn't like that at all, but then i put un-modified new version in place and after a reboot predictive text is working!!!! Wow....sweet...kept me from using it (without predictive).....only thing now is swipe doesn't work...crashes keyboard...but i can live without that, so all win for me. Thanks for getting the juices flowing! Sorry sideloading it isn't working for you. You are using the path system/app correct?

Glad you got at least part of it working. I sure like to swipe. I have just been using the adb install -l -r then the app name without specifying the install location. That's how I got the messages app installed. I would like the updated keyboard too so I may give your suggestion a try.

I don't mind at all.
I downloaded the latest from apk mirror and copied it to my adb folder.
Renamed it com.samsung.android.messaging.apk because adb didn't like the apk mirror's name.
Ran my cmd from that folder.
adb start-server
adb devices
adb install -l -r com.samsung.android.messaging.apk
adb kill-server
exit
The app installs fine and it works well until you restart the phone then you have to repeat the process because it does not "stick".
I don't think it would help me to give the path in cmd since I am not rooted but I could be wrong.
Hope it helps

Hey guys,
There are a lot of posts up on XDA with the Pixel's feature port for the Nexus 5X. But it gets convenient when everything's under one hood. Also not all are technically sound and well versed with flashing ZIPs, wiping the caches and so on. We need it simple! The common language that we all understand is that of apps.
I've come up with a Nexus 5X-exclusive app that puts everything together and makes it convenient for everyone to get all the features of Google Pixel with just a button click.
CREDITS:
theLazyGeek for his flashable ZIP and his efforts that helped extend this project over to the Nexus 5X - a Nexus 6P initiative primarily. Please view his original thread here.
PREREQUISITES:
1. Google Nexus 5X
2. Root Access with SuperSu installed
3. Android 7.1.1
4. Build N4F26I only (make note, otherwise your device will brick)
5. TWRP installed
NOTES:
1. This app doesn't have a roll-back-to-stock feature, though I'm working on it. In the meanwhile if you want to roll back, simply flash the stock 7.1.1. OTA ZIP which you can fetch from here.
2. There are a few features missed out in the package from Pixel XL though I'm working on porting them too. Read below to know more.
3. The in-app download as of now is about 158 MB so make sure you have enough data / internet before proceeding.
BUGS:
1. A weird one in Google Camera app that the HDR icon randomly disappears. (P.S. same camera version from stock) It requires a workaround which will be updated soon. Though, it isn't a bug with the camera. Just that the HDR icon inside the camera app doesn't show up!
2. In case your wallpaper app crashes, just follow,
i. Open any File Manager (preferably get Root Explorer from Play Store)_
ii. Grant it SuperSu access
iii. Head over to /system/app/Wallpapers-wallpaper/
iv. Just tap the Wallpapers-wallpaper.apk and install it
v. Now try setting a wallpaper to set it.
WHAT'S THERE:
1. Pixel Navigation Bar icons + animation
2. Pixel Live Data Wallpapers + Pixel Live Earth Wallpapers
3. Pixel Launcher
4. Blue Theme
5. Google Assistant
6. Pixel Round Icons
7. Fingerprint Notification Gestures
8. Cherry Picks Store that makes it convenient to select custom MODs and install them!
WHAT'S NOT THERE:
1. Night Mode
2. A full roll-back to stock.
DOWNLOADS:
Though the APK has been attached along, kindly take the efforts to download it from the Play Store (links given ahead) and also comment up there; that would be a great motivation for me.

Hey mikeprius, kindly head over to Settings -) About -) Build. If it's anything other than N4F26I, it will say that your device is incompatible. Kindly update your Nexus (via an OTA) to the latest build. You can grab the OTA update zip otherwise from here.
Thanks!
Download of the zip fails.
can you tell how a different version could result in a brick? or do you mean bootloop?
I don't think that your app could mess with partitions

Hey throcker, what I meant by brick is soft brick (a subset of which is ANR on boot). And it doesn't mess with the partitions. It includes SystemUI,apk patched which if flashed on incompatible firmware will cause your SystemUI to ANR at every boot! Thanks!

What works
Everything hardware wise
What doesn't
Audio for incoming calls
All fingerprint gestures
Control center doesn't work if you have navigation bar enabled
Probably something else I can't tell
This will probably be asked
Why I can't see NFC in settings?
Well because it's disabled in Chinese builds
fixed in latest update B536.1
WHY theres no nav keys???!!!
huawei Magic Fingerprint gestures to navigate. So far swipe from left and right on our sensor works as back button. Home and recents doesn't work for now.
Why doesn't control center being displayed if we have navigation keys? This is due to lower dpi from our side it works if u set androidsystem with 640 dpi but everything else will be a totall mess. So to activate navigation keys
open settings -> system settings -> accessibility and enable navigation bar
can i remove the control center up button in navigation bar?
yes. This wasn't working on first version but works on B521.
WGW isn't any new apps displaying any notifications?
they're disabled by default for some reason.?
open settings -> notification center select the app that doesn't display any issues.
battery time is terrible why?
it hasnt settled down you just move to a new apartment . . . It takes time to settle down
Why can't I install 3rd party launchers apps from playstore or anywhere else?:
You can but you must install it as system app huawei has added some sort of block method which prevents us from installing 3rd party launchers (no root)
This is also happening with dupe phone caller and contacts.
Info is invalid apk (which is strange)

Aside from the bugs you have mentioned is it stable or does it need some work to be done? Don't forget to mention Magic UI is based on marshmallow by the way! Another question that will be asked.

It should do yes since I included all files for wifi and camera for every honor 8 (since it's included in stock) so yes it should work.

Oh yup I forgot about that [emoji14] well probably need some easier way to configure brightness etc and something is blocking launches from being installed (invalid package) this I don't know why only solution for now is to install it as a system app.
Well for daily usage it's stable but has its hard way of browsing trough lol since it seems to break some functions as we lower the density. such as notification center cannot be used if you enable navigation bar and the buttont to show it doesn't work. I haven't encountered any real issues nor haven't tried everything fully tbh but majority of features should be working

Finally got it to work. Had to reset phone and unlock it again, etc... Didn't wipe anything before flashing it nor after, but when it was booting up it started bootlooping and had to go to recovery and make a factory reset. Booting up went fine after that. Now I have to learn some mandarin!

18/04/18 UPDATE: Factory Image and Kernel Source are live!
It's being rolled out so you might not have it right away.
My own Unofficial Changelog since the one Razer provided was lacking
Added 8.1 features such as PiP, smart text, new power menu and switch off/reboot animation
Added Updated Dialer (looks more like the Pixel Dialer now)
Added "Colour" under "Display" to tune the display between "Natural" "Boosted" and "Vivid"
Fixed Crashing Issue with Netflix and Google Play Movies
Updated Dolby Atmos Application and equaliser
If you have any issues/bugs please post with a detailed description of it and if it can be replicated. Also upload any bug reports to your Google Drive and share the link here so the developers can take a look.
How to Take a Bug report.
Activate Developer Settings by going to Settings>System>about phone and tap the build number repeatedly.
Once done go back once and you should see "Developer Options"
In here press "Take Bug Report" and then "Full Report"
Wait a bit and you'll see a notification, press it and upload to Google Drive
Once in Google Drive get the link for the .zip file and make sure the sharing settings are changed to "anyone can edit" and then share the direct link to the file here.
I know this sounds like a lot but it's very easy and really helps the developers.
Downloading now. Hopefully will be a good update considering how long it took.
Already installed (on a de-branded phone, btw). It looks like the screen is about 10% brighter than it was before the update, but I may be wrong. Has anyone else noticed the same?

Someone on the Razer forums said the same thing.
If someone could test something for me I would be very greatful but you have to follow these steps exactly and let me know the outcome. The Theme isn't the cause it's just easier to see.
go to System settings>display>colours and change the colour scheme to "Vivid"
Change your theme to something vibrant like flat green or crimson from the razer theme store
Change the theme on Gboard to something bright like red/green
open Google chrome and tap the field box so the keyboard appears
now swipe the quick toggles all the way down with no notifications making sure the keyboard is still up
Now when you look at your quick toggles is the colour switching from vivid to normal by itself? been trying to find the cause of this on my unit but was a bit hard with hardly anyone on the dev preview.
It will be interesting to see if the Three variant has the update delayed. I am still struggling with debranding mine but if the update does roll out with the SIM free devices I will stop trying.

Hi,
Is there any new settings such as haptic feedback vibration settings?
God knows how long we will have to wait for factory images to be released.
As those of us who are on the DP will not receive the OTA, and cannot roll back to N neither
To those of you that don't have the update yet, just install a VPN app like protonvpn and connect to a US server, then check for updates...
Thank me later.

Damn, it worked for me, I live outside the US ans had no update available, after the vpn connection from US I was offered the update at first try. Try other servers in US maybe. They sais rollout is in wave. Maybe not all of the US is being served.

try instaling via ADB sideload .. hopefully working for me .. thanks dude :good:
*UPDATE
its working btw Thanks dude !! im so happy with this update !!
Stock recovery should be able to flash it, it's the same file your device would download.
Whats the correct way to install the OTA???
Fully fresh install DP 1 and then the OTA over it??? (I'm using the DP 1, but I rooted and messed with some files already, I want the fully fresh experience).
Best regards

In my case, I already instal DP1 .. and then roll back to nougat version via fastboot .. then relock the bootloader.
And then update via adb sideload the OTA update

All right then.
So, first install the factory image: https://developer.razer.com/razer-p...210.450019206.1523910795-820167234.1522079918
Then relock the bootloader.
And then ADB Sideload the OTA.
I heard some users had problems downgrading from the DP1 to N, you had any issue???
Best regards,
I know this is not related to mobile but thought I'd share this here with everyone.
I've been so sick of the eye burning light colored UI on WhatsApp desktop for so long and decided to come up with a dark mode myself. Here's a screenshot of the result.
{
"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"
}
It was very satisfying and thought this is worth sharing. Made a little installer script for both Windows and macOS and published it as an open-source project.
FYI, this is not a modded version of WhatsApp. It'll just modify the styling of your currently installed build of WhatsApp desktop. It's 100% safe and anybody's welcome to look through the source code and review.
Downloads and Instructions :
https://github.com/m4heshd/whatsapp-desktop-dark
Please note that this script won't work with microsoft store or app store version of WhatsApp desktop
Enjoy!!!
Can not run the file in Mac, it's a text file. Why can't people leave proper instructions?
Error Windows
Hello thank you for making this dark mode I have been searching for something like this for a while!
Unfortunately I keep receiving this error.
Any idea why?

This is awesome, thank you for making this dark mode for WhatsApp however I tried to run the script on my Mac and it keeps giving error. Is there any workaround for this?

Hi,
Thank you for trying this out. The error occurs because you have the windows store version of WhatsApp. You can find the issue on Github here.
https://github.com/m4heshd/whatsapp-desktop-dark/issues/3
As mentioned in the above issue, please try the direct download version from their web and let me know how it goes.

Hi @Liftedcorn,
You're very welcome and thanks for trying this out.
Unfortunately emojis on the emoji tab are loaded to a canvas from one big JPG with a white background. So it's not fixable at all. I've tried. Really sorry about that.

It's totally fine.... Not a big issue ?
Works like a charm. Thank You again. ?
I get this message when trying to run it: 'wmic' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I'm using official Whatsapp desktop 0.3.4375 from the download page, not app store, using the windows x86/x64 version and my windows 10 is 64bit.
Any ideas?

Oops. That seems to be a newer version. It looks like the windows version haven't received that update yet. Will release the theme update as soon as this WhatsApp update is available on both platforms. Thanks for reporting.

It seems like NodeJS is looking for that PATH for the executable which isn't set by your OS. Please try this solution and let me know.
BTW you can also try to run the script directly from the source as mentioned in the documentation.

That worked a treat, thanks! Entering the commands in cmd didn't do anything, but thankfully the more permanent solution via control panel worked right away.

Hello guys,
I've always wanted to install Samsung notes app on my non-samsung device (tested this on device with RROS with android 7.1.2).
So if anyone wants to do the same, here's the process.
TBH, this thread is pointless as syncing to samsung account doesn't work after installing. So this is only for people who want the other writing or drawing features.
1. Download zip file from link (found it on A thread on xda, thanks to @TECK )
I'm also attaching the file in case the link's broken
2. Place the contents in respective folders (com.samsung.device.jar in "/system/framework/" and com.samsung.device.xml in "/system/etc/permissions/". Leave the rest) in root folder using a root browser(like ES) manually (I did not try flashing it).
Step 2 is a must as the apk checks if your device is a Samsung one before getting installed. The file (com.samsung.device) does this trick.
3. Restart your device.
4. Install Samsung Notes apk.
5. Enjoy.
Note : just that this process worked on my device, it doesn't mean it will work on all device (but mostly, it will work). Try it at your own risk.
Hi there, this method does not work on my rooted Xiaomi device.
Imma quite sure that both 2 files are correctly placed with ur instructions
but Google Play store still warns me that the app is not available for my device
and I have tried to use ADB on my PC to force install the apk file, that works but
when I tap the icon on my phone to start the app, it crashs immediately
can u help me with that? thanks very much, I do appreciate
PS: the app Imma trying to install is samsung tv plus, and samsung note is also unavailable after checking

Did you try the latest version? I've faced this issue with older ones.
It still works on mine.
If using the same version as mine doesn't help, try getting the logcat using some logcat reader from play store.

It seems that changing versions does not work for me. So I got all the logs when launching samsung app here attached. Could u take a look of that? Really appreciated
Try enabling all permissions for the app from the settings. I never got such logcat... What's your android version?

All permissions are enabled for the app
And its android 10 sir
I think the issue is mainly about these lines.
It seems to request packages called com.samsung.android.samsungaccount and others.
Do u have apk or jar files to install samsung (account) service framework sir?
Alright first check if the files are correctly placed. Rename the apk file to its package name and place it in /system/app/ reboot, enable permissions reboot and check.
I think this problem is because AOSP package installer and xiaomi's are different.

It works on some devices.. I think it depends on the oem too because when I install it on stock android I get this error.
And if someone has the same error, this works as we place the required libraries in required places. I read somewhere even before starting this thread that it works by direct installation on some Huawei Devices too.
So from what you've said, I can conclude that it doesn't work on stock ones and some oems. Don't you think so?
