So I am running the MIUI Rom and loving it but I have a question that hopefully one of you can answer. I tend to gravitate towards red themes and found a theme that I love called NeonRT. Problem is, there is a language issue in a specific app, and unfortunately it is Gmail. The body of the messages are in some rubbish. Now I realize there may be nothing one can do but does anyone know how to fix this at a programming level. I am decent with PCs but know squat about programming. Any help or advice is appreciated, Thanks!
And if anyone knows of another red theme out there, feel free to throw it up. I did find a theme called Red Crystal but prefer the icons and general layout of the NeonRT theme much better. Again, thanks and take care.
i have ran the neonBT GT and RT and finally stuck with the bleu one, but Gmail works great on all of them.
Your right they are nice looking...the crystal one is just to plain for my liking.
Bit I'm sure you could find different icons in a icon pack and use a different launcher. Like I'm on infused and running adw launcher ex and have the zoo York red icon pack but then have a theme foe the rom and can change just the icon instead of the whole theme but I don't know anything about miui at all so i don't know how it all works with it.

Hey everyone! It's been awhile since I posted in this forum! I have been using my HTC Hero again to refresh on my android theming. It's been awhile since I had any custom themes on it. Right now it's rooted and it's stock. I am just wondering what are the most current of themes that I can put on it now and where do I get them?
I know how to install them but I have ran into a few issues a few months ago trying this process because the themes I found we're not compatible. I was wanting to have vanilla unlock again. I also really want a really awesome black and neon green theme. If anyone could point me in the right direction to get started back in all of this again, I would gladly appreciate it! Thanks in advance for everyone who responds!

I had good luck running Cyanogen Mod 7, although it got slower as time went on (6 months). As for themes, if I remember correctly, the Go Launcher, etc., had some themes that were black and green (for accessibility). I also tried Zeam launcher and I liked that.
Check links below
So I was poking around the Note 8 forum and came across a few mods that are working on our devices without root. THESE ARE NOT MY APPS/MODS AND I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR THE DEVELOPERS HARD WORK THAT WENT INTO THESE APPS. I just wanted to share. In the first link below we have the Substratum Theme Engine (Link below).This will let you theme things like drop down, Google Apps such as Google Now, Chrome, Instagram, Pandora, YouTube Google Play Store and more. Some themes work better then others at this time but hopefully in the future these themes will be fully working. The themed apps im using is from someone you may or may not know but has been here on xda for a number of years and has done some amazing work here and goes by the name of @cerj and the link to his theme: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cerj.bigblu
If you find yourself over there give him a thumbs up or something for his hard work.
The next mod/app is called Muviz (Link below). This is a customizable visual navbar equalizer and will work with Pandora YouTube and a bunch of different apps.
Another useful apps I've started using is BK Disabler. I've noticed that Package Disabler wasn't working for this device on launch day so found this alternative to help with getting rid of bloatware or unwanted carrier installed apps that maybe taking up useful space or eating your battery. (Link below)
Next up is one you may or may not know about. It's a app called Doze (Link below) We all know that data is one of the biggest power drain. If you keep your data on all the day, apps can run out of full battery even without using your phone. When screen is off, Doze prevents your apps from sending or receiving data without disabling your Wi-Fi or 2G/3G/4G data. In this way it adds more hours to standby time and makes significant difference to battery life.
So im not sure if Samsung did away with the notification pop up on our devices or it just doesn't work with Nova Launcher or maybe I'm missing something but my notification pop up is gone so I found a app called Heads up SMS Notifications (Link below). It does just that. Could be a better app out there and if so comment below and let everyone know.
........OCT 21, 2017....... UPDATE!
I found this over at the N8 thread and figured I'd bring it on over here. It's a app that allows you to add buttons to your navbar which I thought was pretty cool. Originally found here https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-8/themes/app-custom-navigation-bar-add-t3671528 so give that guy a thumbs-up. You will need a computer to perform adb comments and you can find the download here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 and thank that fella. Custom Navigation Bar (Link Below)
Hope you enjoy as much as I do. If anyone has any cool apps and links to apps please leave in comments below if you like so that others may enjoy them as well.

Same. Life. Rebuilding a 86 Chevy k10. Did the whole N7 thing then S7 edge trade in now here. Had cerj helping me with learning how to theme for a bit with gimp/Android Studio but life came up and kinda fell away from it. I did get a icon themed lol. He was really cool about helping me but he was so busy. Been playing around with KLWP a bit. Might start a thread just to get this place more active. But glad to see a talented familiar face with us here with the new device.

Its the same theming app i posted hehe
Thanks for the post. I'm giving the app a go, and so far, it works well. I have a question regarding app elements, and I was wondering if anyone has any tips. I'm going with a black theme, and when I apply it, there are a few elements in a couple of apps that are turning out all black. One is calculator. The numbers are fine, but the symbol keys are all blacked out, making them invisible. The second is dialer. Everything looks alright, except for the FAB for the number pad. It's all black.
For primary color, I used #000000, and for accent, I used #ffffff. Am I doing this right?
Thanks for any help.
EDIT: Figured it out. I had to change the primary color from black to something else.
Thanks for the post. I have been looking at a way to theme it more than just Samsung Themes let's you and I have been trying to get fonts and this does it all! J know substraum could to but I always had bad luck with it. We will see how stable this is but I feel like it is going to be just fine. I even decided to do the donate version to support the developers. Thanks again

Because many of you are acting like theming outside if Samsung themes is some new things, and that this mediocre app is somehow amazing?

Substratum SUCKS. When I used it on Nougat it drained the **** outta my battery. Now that it's on Oreo, they made a new app "Andromeda" and wanna charge people $$$ again just for an update. RIDICULOUS TRASH!

In trying to use Substranium on Oreo and isn't working very well. Disappointed for sure. Hopefully the $2 I spent will fix the bugs
Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk
The only reason I chose to go with this app as opposed to Substratum is because the bar for entry with this app is really low, comparatively. I have an S8 Active which is not rooted (nor am I planning to root). This means I have to download Andromeda ($2) and the desktop script in order to get Substratum to work. And I have no guarantee that it will work well. I have to pay $2 to find out, and then request a refund if it doesn't. With this app, I download one app, no additional app(s) to install, and no desktop script to run after every reboot. Plus, I don't have to deal with paying, only to request a refund later if things don't work out.
It may not be as pretty, but it's functional for my needs.
After oreo substratum and andromeda aren't working on my note 8 so I tried this app again after months of not using it. Its come a long way. I freaking love being able to do ANY color notifications I want with ANY color text! I don't think people realize what this app can do now. I see people that basically just want black notifications with white text so it can be easily read. In my opinion it blows substratum out of the water even when I did have it working on nougat. This may be my favorite app ever.
So this is just a Trial app and you have to pay to unlock all features? And I think its not fully compatible with OREO yet.

Oreo compatible. Is not a trial, it has features that require a donation but it's functional without those couple of options. Also it s a trail breaker built in. So themes will stick without messing with disabling anything.

Whats the problem? Why dont you use substratum and pay for something thats not even supported in the future? Just saying let us have fun with it
Substratum can't do notifications like this that I know of. That's the main reason this app gets me. Notifications anyway you want them. Not just black or white.

See, if you had the first clue what you were taking about, or even a general idea how any of this worked, you would realize how misinformed and silly you sound.
First of all, substratum did not "drain the **** out of" your battery. That is physically impossible, as there are no running services involved outside of the brief part where you use the app to install the theme. Nothing running means no battery drain. Computers are smart enough to change some colors and shapes on the screen without taxing a 3,000mah battery and an over 1ghz processor. Dont blame substratum because your system was screwed up and needed a factory reset.
Secondly, since you obviously have no clue how any of this works im in a good mood today so I'll explain it to you. Forgive the length, but there is a lot that appatrently needs explaining lol.
First, substratum isn't "charging people for an update." samsung oreo has a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT theme engine than samsung nougat. Why is this the case? Because with nougat samsung, in their oh so excellent wisdom completely ripped out and replaced the already existing theme engine in stock android with their own monstrosity. Why they did this is anyone's guess, but the answers definitely wont include words like "compatibility" or "logic", but it broke existing nougat theming. Given that the substratum app is basically a "theme compiler" app that builds layers used by the os, a substratum dev team figured out that they could compile substratum theme manifests into the magic proprietary samsung hybrid-engine tire fire that is the touchwiz nougat theme system. So they did, and it works. It doesn't allow native drop in of any configuration of system themes for aosp to the completely different tw versions, but it works, and works well provided someone has actually designed the theme layers with substratum in mind. At first those were few and far between and i too was frustrated at looking at countless themes on play store that wouldn't work on my phone, but now there are numerous beautiful options for the s8 and s8+. I count 21 different themes installed on my phone now, and i have a lot of them but not all.
After this substratum implemented theming for oreo, for which the entire ecosystem had finally solidified around the aosp theming engined (called OMS). They realized that with an app similar, BUT COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TO like what they had done for samsung, they could open theming up to all standard oreo devices. So they did, and it works, except for that you have to grant privileges via adb to make changes without root which dont persist across reboot (this would be googles fault), but it allows the entire ecosystem to use native theming, so Yay.
Come several months later, and oreo betas finally appear. As devs look at them to see what changes to sungstratum (the addon for samsung nougat) would be necessary, low and behold they find that samsung has apparently seen the error of their ways and left the oreo OMS theme system (almost) entirely intact! This is great news everyone thinks, because now even one off custom samsung devices can use the same thing everyone else does, and they're well be true interoperability across all of the Google ecosystem. Sounds great right? Except a handful of over opinionated under informed samsung users see this as not not upporting the substratum theme app on oreo, despite the fact that 1) absolutely zero off the code was compatible, 2) they already have an app on the play store that everyone else uses, so keeping a separate one made literally no sense, and 3) it was SAMSUNG who is responsible for all of this!
So if you want to be mad at someone, be mad at samsung. They are the ones who changed everything and screwed everyone using theming not their own.
Ot, yoy can not be angry for having to spend a whole $2 on the Andromeda app because you CHOOSE not to root (you don't need Andromeda if you have root access) and appreciate the fact that leas than a cup of coffee or less than your weekly allowance you can have a vast array of gorgeous themes to use on your $800 oreo device that you can use without theme killer hacks, or dealing with knox. Or, you can just do a little reading about the systems you have such underinformed opinions on, root your device and get this for free as well as a ton of other awrsome possibilities. When youve done a little homework and are to root, do a xda search for my nick with "rom" on the end to get started ?️.
Hello everyone guys,
i came back to Android after 2 year with an iPhone (don't judge me, everyone makes mistakes) and i recently bought a OnePlus 6, everything it's awesome but..
I see no one ported Miui Rom for OP6, i helped some developer in past and i developed something (little things) and i'd like to try porting Miui to our smartphones.
Is someone interested in the project? I don't have a lot of time due to work and studies so if someone is interested in helping write me in pvt or here.
Everyone, also first attempt in developing rom, is accepted.
Let me know if you want to partecipate and/or if you would like to see MIUI for OP6.
Have a nice day guys

Why does everyone ask for this with every oneplus device? Go get a phone that runs miui if you want it. That would just be an insult to oneplus 6. It's not even a good rom. And you want to choose firmware? This is xda just pick one and try it. There are a good amount of custom roms now and all are way better than miui. And you will definitely be sacrificing cam quality with miui.

I don't understand why you're getting irritated by this. The guy is just asking if anyone is intersted in helping him porting MIUI . If you're not, then you're not and it's okay. He does not even ask people to do it for him, he is asking for some help. You don't even have to check on this thread if you think MIUI is bad or does not interest you.

i m looking forward for miui rom on op6 as well since i like the customizations which it comes with along with its THEME capabilities.
That would really be a great rom for our device, good luck dude!
Why are people saying "Get a Mi phone". I don't get it. Everyone isn't same. People want variety. Its Simple. Some people out there are offended like how dare you ask a miui port. Likewise people ask for customization and this comes under that. The community members who are not comfortable with miui might well as respect others on the forum.
