substratum - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

Does anyone know how to apply themes properly? No theme seems to be really functioning correctly, overlays don't install correctly.

Yeah.. it's bit complicated.
1. Select theme to install
2. Press build and update
3. Once done, it will ask for reboot. Reboot the phone.
4. Once booted, open substratum again
5. Go to manager tab. Select all overlays.
6. Select change overlay state option from bottom right circle icon.
This will apply theme for you.
Hope this helps.

Substratum themes still do not work properly because of some poor written Oneplus OS.
On my nexus6 with AOSP substratum theme works better and apply theme properly and without need to reboot.
but still not perfect, I assume substratum and its themes are written pretty poor as well.

In order to install a theme (a .cab theme) do i need to do anything else besides installing it on the phone and clicking it? any special firmware or something?
no usually not.
if it's a theme, the best bet is to usually restart the phone and the theme should appear when u go select your theme.

If the system ui is deleted it should boot black background but it should boot... in anycase you made a nandroid backup before editing system files right?

That's surely the right way!
If you change directly SystemUi.apk with a root explorer, your device becomes instantly unusable, you can't even change permissions.
At least, it's my experience with other devices.

Yup. Usually modifying critical files on the /system partition is best in the twrp recovery file manager to avoid crashes and malfunctions and all that other craZy stuff.

[How-To][G935F] Injustice theme at the new update PER (It is UP)

Hello to everyone
I just downloaded the XFA PER for my G935F and I used the "stock" csc which it was over 150mb. I said ok will flash it just to see what it is inside. The installation and booting took a while and when I finished with the setup wizard I saw the batman theme installation. I was shocked. The theme is beatiful and it has many great features. (New AOD style added)
Photos are given.
Take a look and let me know what do you think.
When I find new features I will let you know
I was asked to upload a guide on how you can install the PER firmware with the Injustice theme. You should backup everything since this is going to wipe all of your data. If this is your first time flashing with Odin or you are a newbie, please stay away....... This may be risky for you......
Here is the guide
1. Backup everything since this is going to delete all of your files
2. Download this rom
3. Download Odin 3.11.1
4. Open odin and select the AP to the AP and CP to the CP etc......
4b. Go to the pit section and select the given PIT, because the CSC.tar is very big
4c. Make sure that you have the re-partition button checked
5. Make sure that your device is charged more than 40%
6. Reboot to download mode
7. Flash it
8. When it comes up, force the phone to boot to the recovery and wipe data (this step is essential if you want the special CSC to be applied
9. Reboot
10. Enjoy
Don't forget to press the Thanks button
wow!so cool .Can you share the batman theme.
Anyone able to extract this theme yet?
in 10 min I will upload it.
I unpacked the theme from the sec_csc.zip
I don't think so that it will be able to be installed as a normal app but you may need root to put it to the /system/app/ folder
Here the link​
So you can install the theme regularly but it says trial and it ends after a few minutes

I have installed the apk and it works fine if you want to keep the theme active for more then five minutes use package disabler from the playstore to disable the theme store. Here's a link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ospolice.packagedisablerpro
This will allow you to keep the theme active.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9e0-e27EVVKcml6X0hWSzI5cFE/view?usp=drivesdk
Then activate the theme again. Once you have activated the theme go into package disabler and import the xml the one you just downloaded. The theme should now be activated and will stay on until you reactivate theme store.

Hi you could try visiting this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/themes/marvel-themes-s7-t3340869
Basically you need to disable both Theme store and Theme Center.
Theme store can be disabled easily. As for theme center, you have to select manual disabler in package disabler pro and type com.samsung.android.themecenter to disable it. I have tried and it worked on my non rooted s7 edge.
people first of all its working great you just have to know how to cancell the trial version.
sec ill explain you but if you likes theme you have the bigest theme stuff that ok with our phone here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/themes-apps/theme-park-super-hero-t3386909 best place .
FOR ROOTED DEVICE
•Download and install a simply apk. Installation may take a 3-4 minutes as the're many sub-apk. Wait until you see in homescreen message "Installation complete"
•Move the file json from data/overlays/jsonfiles/triljson into userjson. It's always good to test theme while it is on trial version to see any problem with installation
•For MM delete preferences folder in data/overlays(after reboot your device (don'the worry the folder preferences it will be created after reboot)
•Apply theme
FOR NO ROOT DEVICE
•Download and install the theme a simply apk .installation may take 4/5 minutes . Once you see install complete in homescreen your good to go .
•First option app best you use on play store •EZRA PACKAGE DISABLER PRO $1.95
•After you go in (package disabled pro)for the custom themes on here locate it in Theme Center from your phone hit trial,then with PDP look for Theme store and them disable both that's it now it will stick,picture down.

That's what I have been telling you to do since my first post. You have to disable both of the theme store applications using package disabler to get the theme to stay activated.

Good Lock 24.0.16, modified for Android N-ify (v2)

If you've used Android N-ify with Good Lock, you will have known that there's an annoying bug, that the Good Lock settings icon overlaps the alarm section when the Quick Settings is expanded.
This will fix that, and fix up a few things in Good Lock to match AOSP/Google Pixel visuals
Screenshots in attachments.
Should be supported on any Samsung device on a Touchwiz-based 6.0/6.0.1 Marshmallow ROM (7.0 Nougat or newer is unsupported, you can use this Substratum theme instead which makes your SystemUI more AOSP-like!)
Will update this modified Good Lock accordingly as Good Lock itself recieves updates as well.
Changelog
v2
IMPORTANT: you must go and follow this, even if you already installed the previous version, just this one time. Added proper install instructions in the OP, shouldn't have any issues with installing now (read below)
Removed charging/wireless charging water splash animations
Changed default lockscreen wallpaper to stock Google Pixel wallpaper
v1
Removed Good Lock settings icon in quick settings header, to not overlap alarm icon in Android N-ify's quick settings header (still clickable where it was to access Good Lock settings)
Changed auto brightness icon in quick settings header to AOSP style
Changed screenshot notification icon to AOSP style
Changed Good Lock app icon to AOSP Nougat's SystemUI icon
Install instructions
If you are using stock Good Lock, or if you are on the first release of the modified Good Lock, follow the instructions ahead. If you haven't installed any Good Lock, skip to Step 4. Otherwise, if you're on v2 or later of modified Good Lock, and are just updating, skip to Step 6
Disable Android N-ify and GravityBox in Xposed Installer, and reboot
Uninstall Good Lock normally from the app (optional: backup Good Lock data)
Go to /data/app/ in your favourite root file manager, and delete any "com.android.systemui-#" folders (# is substituted with a number)
Install stock Good Lock again
Flash the modified Good Lock zip in TWRP
Enable Android N-ify and GravityBox
Enjoy (optional: restore Good Lock data)
Download
Realy great, works a lot better. Thank you mate. :good:
Great work bro
It doesn't seem to get installed when I flash it, I tried with and without Good Lock installed but it had the same effect. S7 Flat on Superman Rom 1.19

Yes, the ZIP does not work if you try to flash it before installing GoodLock and N-ify. It is recommended that you wipe and reflash the system partition after uninstalling N-ify and GoodLock, and then install GoodLock and N-ify -> reboot once -> flash the ZIP through recovery.
New update!

Yes it is.
In Good Lock routines editor, on the section where you pick theme colours, you can try and pick the blue-greyish colour for the first hexagon to the left, then your QS panel background colour will be set accordingly.

Thanks, I haven't installed your modified Good Lock yet on my father's phone (I don't use TouchWiz, however I was unable for some reason to boot CM12.1 on his phone (when there will be enough time, I will try CM13, or whatever will exist then)) since I thought that the colors will be too jarring for him.
When I'll have time, I'll install your modified Good Lock on his phone.
Is there a way to get a gap between the notifications?

Hello,
First of all, thanks for the mod! Developpers like you are great, and add something to the community! Thanks.
Getting to the question. I know it may sound stupid, but this is supposed to make Good Lock work with Android N-ify. But I don't know when I should instal android n-ify. Should I install Good Lock (fresh install), flash your GoodLock v2 zip, and then install Android N-ify module through Xposed? Or do I not need to install the Android N-ify module?
Thanks in advance for the clarification. Cheers!

Well thanks for the answer.
I followed the procedure, installed Good Lock, then flashed your zip, then installed Android N-ify 0.2 and Gravity Box, but the navigation panel still looks like the original Good Lock panel (I don't see neither Android N-ify effect, nor your Good Lock).
Don't know what I did wrong, but too bad for me.
Thanks for the help anyway !

N-ify 0.2 on the xposed repo is really old, you want the latest build from https://ci.paphonb.xyz/jenkins/job/AndroidN-ify/
Also if installing my good lock made no difference, manually copy out the base.apk from the zip into /data/app/com.android.systemui-1, give -rw-r-r permissions and reboot

Scratch that. Think it's a bug with the version of N-ify I'm using nevermind!

The same thing happens to me when I use the latest version of N-ify from jenkins. However it doesn't do the same with version 0.20 from xposed, but It doesn't look as good as the screenshots in the OP.

How to make multiple non-store themes stick after reboot.

Dear friends, for those who are on Nougat we all know how frustrating it can be to have to reapply a custom theme everytime after reboot. If you only want one theme installed and ready for use, instruction set (A) - which is similar to what you can find on most theme threads - is good enough. For those want to have multiple themes installed to be switched at will and stick after reboot, Set (B) is for you.
Instructions for rooted devices only.
(A) To install a single custom theme:
1. Download and install theme1.apk
2. Download and install Solid Explorer or any file manager with root access.
3. Navigate to Root/data/overlays.
4.Open preferences folder and delete all files.
5.Open trialjson folder, cut and paste theme1.json in userjson folder.
6. Reboot device.
7.Apply theme1 in Samsung Themes.
(B) To add multiple custom themes (rinse and repeat):
8. Repeat steps 1-6
9. Open Samsung Themes.
10. Reapply theme1 (currently in use)
11. Apply new theme2
12. Reboot and confirm (optional)
In pictures,
Screenshot A - reboot after theme2 installed.
Screenshot B - theme1 reapplied.
Screenshot C - reboot after theme3 installed.
Screenshot D - theme2 reapplied.
You would have noticed by now whenever you reboot the device right after installing a new theme (from theme2 onwards), Samsung default theme is auto-selected (bug issue?).
All said and done, please try and let me know if it works for you
Tested on Helios 7.5.1 this time...The collection grows...
Just for clarification, let's say I will be installing 3 themes from @vukandric, do I have to install them 1 by 1 then do the process after each installation, or I can install them all together, then do the process? And do I have to be in the default theme to apply the non store theme?
---------- Post added at 11:22 ---------- Previous post was at 10:46 ----------
No dice at mine, mate. Installed AGold2 and won't stick. Don't know what might be the problem. Running SuperMan-Rom v2.1
@MitoTakatori, what I did was to install each theme one by one. After that, I do not have to do anything further. I just need to apply whatever theme I want w/o any worries.
Did you reapply existing theme before applying new theme? It's a 2-step after reboot.

You mean reapply the theme I was on before I installed another? If that's it, yes I did reapply. So after installing theme1.apk, doing the steps you mention, then install theme2.apk, steps again?
---------- Post added at 11:56 ---------- Previous post was at 11:52 ----------
As per checking, it seems that the default theme is being loaded after every reboot by an unknown script/command. As in userjson folder, it is the one with the latest date. It maybe due to the ROM I am using though. Gonna check it with @Tkkg1994

For theme2.apk, do exactly the same as you did for theme1.apk, which is to install, delete/move files and reboot. After reboot, reapply theme1 BEFORE applying theme2. Likewise for theme3, reapply theme 2 before applying theme3.

Default theme being loaded after every reboot happens to me on Helios rom too. Reapply current theme first, then apply new theme straight away. It appears to be a Nougat bug or changes to Theme editor, not a rom-specific one.
Edit: Gonna try the same on MM. This may not only be affecting Nougat.

I see. This makes it clearer. So in DQB7, the bug or whatever it is, is still there. Thanks for the guide mate. Gonna try again from start, I will be deleting all 3rd party themes first. :good:

It's still there, and imo whatever it is, it points to the theme editor. Whether intentional or not, anybody's guess. The best way to clear everything is to delete entire root/data/overlays folder, then check and delete all remaining theme folders inside root/data/apps. With TiBU, I simply uninstalled all theme apks and related files.

It's still there, and imo whatever it is, it points to the theme editor. Whether intentional or not, anybody's guess. The best way to clear everything is to delete entire root/overlays folder, then check and delete all remaining theme folders inside root/apps.

Samsung sucked the hump again with the themes. Anyways if some good soul manage to get the latest theme editor exe and shared it here, we will be having no problems with it.
I just uninstalled using TiBu. Thanks for the help mate! :good:

I don't know how to solve it now but, followed every step, uninstalled/reinstalled 3rd party themes, repeat everything; still no theme sticking after boot. It's really ticking me off now. I don't know what causes it! All theme from store applies well, sticks after boot, but NOT any 3rd party ones. I already reported something on SuperMan-Rom thread just to make an appeal to my good friend Luca. Any news on any other ROM having this severe issue?

I have not tested on Superman (perhaps I will). Only just did the same for my other phone - Note 5 (Nemesis Nougat S7E port v2.5.1) and it works.

I think this will be sorted on next SuperMan Rom release, as I already reported it. Luca is one hell of a great dev. So now sticking on Samsung store themes. Bummer.
You saved my days..thanks alot...the secret is that you have to apply the new theme and then reapply it once again...then reboot ....works great
Mate where are the links?

No, you dun have to download anything. Just follow the steps (for multiple themes) in OP.
its not a bug, you delete all the files inside "preferences" folder and reboot that's why your system thinks you're on the default theme, just re-apply your theme even though you think you're already using it.
Simple instruction for multiple custom themes (theory) :
-download and install all your custom themes (don't apply yet and wait for the toast notification "installation complete" on each theme)
-just apply one of any themes you install.
-before your 5min trial expires move fast and delete all files inside preferences folder and transfer (CUT & paste) ALL the .json files inside trialjson folder to userjson folder and reboot.
-re/apply any of the themes you install.
