Substratum on Pixel 3? - Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers

Hello everyone,
I live in Gurgaon, India and got my phone on Nov 1 via the Flipkart plus delivery system.
I used it for good 8 days and updated to november security update.
Then I unlocked my bootloader and rooted via Magisk, I did not install TWRP as a custom recovery.
I checked root and the phone is rooted properly and passes the CTS profile and SafetyNet checks, Magisk hide works perfectly for BHIM UPI, Google Pay and PhonePe apps.
I used trial version of Pluvius and that works too.
The only thing that bothered me alot is Substratum is not applying the color on several elements, for example, the notifications in the notification pull down and the settings app are two main places it should apply to the least.
I am specifically longing for making them dark, I tried using Flux dark and Pie dark themes.
I tried switching the in-built light and dark modes within the settings too but to no avail.
Is there anything I am not doing right ?

Have you Rebooted and reenabled?

Could be the themes. I've tried Valerie, Spectrum, and Mono Art and they all work fine.

Favorite Xposed Plug-ins

Hi All,
I am very new to Xposed and I just finished installing V85. Thanks for the TuT!
If you could, would you list your favorite Plug-ins and why you like them? I would like very much to have a review'ish type list to measure a particular plug-in's popularity.
I figure if someone posts their favorite and we get a lot of likes or re-posts of the same plug-in then I can make a more informed decision on what I would like to use.
Thanks in advance!
-NJ
I use Boot Manager, Gravity Box, G4 Tweaksbox and GEL Settings. Be careful for conflicting tweaks, enable one at a time between reboots.
My go-to Xposed plugins are:
G4 Tweaksbox - so I can skip tracks by long-pressing the volume keys; also various theme tweaks, disabling low battery warnings, etc.
NotifyClean - originally so I could hide the WiFi Calling persistent notification (IPService), but now I no longer use it.
Secure Settings - I rely on Tasker for a lot of things, and this is required for special functions (like waking the screen).
Youtube AdAway - what ads?
Youtube Background Playback - I disable auto-update of the Youtube app so it stays in sync with this plugin
App Settings is nice if you like changing the DPI for certain apps. Amplify + Greenify is a nice battery saving combo that feature xposed modules.
App settings, One Tap YouTube module, YouTube background playback, YouTube adAway
Youtube AdAway and Youtube Background seems popular
Could anyone give me a link to the most recent xposed framework?

did you stop using NotifyClean because you no longer needed it or because it was causing issues? for me, I need this module, but it seems to be causing SystemUI crashes on MM and Xposed 85... contacted author in thread, but no response =(
Can anyone please recommend an xposed module for immersive mode on V10?

G4 tweaksbox will work to get rid of nav bar but will not help with status bar. Don't use gravity box, it won't work for immersive.

Thank you for your suggestion. I tried a few other things also and discovered that "immerse me" works fine on my phone. It was a surprise for me because the description says the module is for kitkat. Others can try it if they are looking for immersive mode (all apps) for marshmallow on V10.

I stopped using wifi calling, so I stopped needing NotifyClean. However, it appears I still have it installed while running MM and it hasn't caused any issues. I just re-enabled wifi calling and it hid the notification immediately without causing any problems. I'm running Xposed framework version 83 and one of the earlier versions of Eliminater74's MM rom.

I was thinking of checking that module out as well, but I paid for NotifyClean and hopefully it's still being developed on by @defim... unfortunately I have not heard anything as of yet.

thanks for the info! do you have fingerprint unlock enabled by any chance? that's my issue with NotifyClean... it keeps restarting SystemUI and I'd be alright with it if it didn't break fingerprint unlock.

I just set up a fingerprint, enabled a PIN lockscreen, and was able to unlock the screen with my fingerprint. Confirmed that it worked after a reboot. (Though the first time unlocking after rebooting gives me "Unable to use fingerprint," but is fine after that.)

if you're able to keep an eye on things and report back to let me know, that would be appreciated. for me NotifyClean and fingerprint unlock do work, however after some time without any reboots or anything out of the ordinary that I'm aware of my device locks the screen and won't accept fingerprint unlock. I know the phone hasn't rebooted on its own to cause this because I've literally put the phone down for less than 2 minutes only to have to enter the password to unlock. my phone is set to lock after 10 minutes... I've checked the Xposed logs to find nothing in there and only after I disable this module does this issue not happen again.

[APP] Oxygen Slider

Hi,
This Xposed module allows you to customize the alert slider's behavior in OxygenOS.
A while back, OnePlus decided to merge the framework of OxygenOS with HydrogenOS which rendered my similar application (Notification Slider) useless, at least in my opinion. The drastic internal changes made it impossible to reach the same level of customizability as before, and since the source code wasn't updated properly to reflect those changes, I sadly gave up on OxygenOS support.
Now, almost a year later I've returned to OnePlus and decided to give it another shot.
After a month of fun, but challenging work, this is the result.
Feel free to send me feature requests, or bug reports, via the Contact feature in the Info section of the app.

Haven't tested it on Oreo yet, will do so as soon as the stable OOS update arrives on the 5T. Anyway, have you made sure that the Xposed status is active, and that the module has been properly activated (and rebooted once)?
Not working on OP5T OOS 4.7.6 stock android 7.1.1. Module has been successfully loaded, but moving the slider doesn't do anything. Absolutely nothing happens, not even the original actions work.

The same thing happens here too. Nothing happens when I move the slider after installing the Module and rebooting. I'm using a OP3 and the latest Open Beta still based on Nougat. I know Open Betas are not supported but I thought I'd try anyway.
Haven't tried this yet on Oreo Beta 2 but will certainly be keeping an eye on this, thank you!
Hello sevelith,
Really appreciate the effort your taking.
I have installed the app and activated the module in xposed but unfortunately nothing happens even after rebooting to apply changes.Even the default slider actions don't work.

And thank you for your work have been waiting for this a long time.

As for your request, I guess I could implement an option that allows you to select which profiles that should automatically be disabled on slider changes.
You could either use the donation button next to my avatar, or use the built-in Donation menu option. Thank you very much!

Can you please tell me the steps of how you got this too work? I can't seem to find Xposed for 5t and the fix apk won't install :crying:
I am on Beta 2, rooted with Magiks.
When I get my 5T shall be coming back to this thread
Works on rooted OP5T with Oreo open beta 2.
Thank you very much. A long awaited feature
Worked on my 3T running Open Beta 15, but caused instability. I couldn't open Xposed or use Nova Launcher, so I had to delete the app.
I'm planning on updating to Oreo soon, so maybe that'll solve my stability issue. Also, I second an option to disable flashlight after changing slider position. The off screen gesture is still faster, but only if you draw it accurately. That's why I wanted to use the slider. If it doesn't turn off when you change positions, then you have to use the gesture or tap the quick setting anyway which defeats the purpose.
Other than that, it's great. This is one thing I've needed most on my 3T and not had.
Hey @Seveilith
So tried you app on OnePlus 5 running Open Beta 4 android 8.0.
App was working fine but there was this one problem:
1. On Silent(vibrate), the phone was completely on silent. Tried calling from other phone no vibration.
2. On Silent, the phone vibrated when a call came.
Have not tested this for notifications, but this happens during a call.
Thanks a lot @Seveilith for the come back of this once beloved app!
I'd like to know if there is a profile where sound can be customized (using tasker or another automation app or even the volume buttons) from vibrate to ring. Or is the OOS limitation on sound (forced on or off dependig on the chosen profile) can't be overcome?

I've noticed the issue on OxygenOS v4.7.6 as well, at least when transitioning from Silent to Silent (Vibrate). I'm currently working on a fix, and hopefully it will work on the Oreo builds as well (haven't taken a look at the Oreo source code yet).

Unfortunately, this is the result of the volume restrictions of OxygenOS. I havent decided yet, but I plan on implementing a new feature, or a standalone Xposed module, that unlocks these restrictions (e.g. by making it possible to change the ringer mode using the volume buttons).

Secret code to change Network code and Sales code aka CSC code *#243203855# is functional.

@Dyuntt For Secret code to change CSC code finding.
Thank you all for great support to this thread. As the pole suggested to include new features on each builds as well for that I will need some help to compile list.

For AOD try to clear data for Always On Display app from Settings>>Apps>>Show System Apps. That should do the trick.
Samsung Theme is not fully baked yet and is not able to apply theme throughout the system, so I suppose I can add that to the list.
Thanks for the update for DeX, I dont have a DeX with me to try it out but I can add that to the lis as well.
Can you explain more about custom sounds. I am not sure if I understood what you meant.
And what is the build number you are on, is it CRI5 or CRI6? Please let me know, because I have intended to make list based on builds

CRI6 cannot be installed on top of CRI5. Update package looks for Oreo ARG8 and hence fails on installing. To install CRI6 I flashed ARG8 through odin without resetting. I was stuck in bootloop after that but I decided to sideload CRI6 on top of bootlooping ARG8. And surprisingly it worked and i am running CRI6 as of writing this post.

Thank you

ARG8 LINK: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262903988758
Night theme toggle seems to be working. Though light theme has not been fully implemented yet.
Fingerprint sensor is not functional. It keeps saying its not responding while adding fingerprints.
I can see little difference in audio while toggling dolby atmos options. So its seems to be in the work.
Looks like Messages app has updated look. At least the Activity with list of messages. Conversation Activity still has same look. I wonder if app versions are different. Mine is version 10.0.00.19
Havent got enough time to play with other stuffs though

Look like it's not worth to change from 5 to 6 yet
Probably will wait for more stable version
Also if you will go to updates in settings it's still showing ARG8 version
Anybody receiving pictures messages and able to send them with stock messages apk on update

Yea, I dont see this upgrade as a worth it one. And on top of that fingerprint scanner stopped working.
Updates in Settings doesnt say ARG8 for me, I have attached screenshot. It just says device is upto date and security patch level is September 1

I got it too!!!!! I'm on AT&T. Woo Hoo!!!
Whoo Hoo , got it mine too !
Seems to be working great.
BTW, is there any way to swap the recent and back button?
adb shell
settings put secure sysui_nav_bar "space,recent;home;back,space"
This doesn't work any more :\
Just flashed the fastboot image, for some reason the only options under Choose screen lock are "none" and "Swipe". There's no option for PIN or pattern anymore which leaves me unable to add a fingerprint to unlock with either
How's the battery life in Android Q?
Is it the same with P or worse?
I assume now that it is official, that SafetyNet is passing ok so things such as GooglePay aren't a problem? I had avoided trying a beta because of the lack of SafetyNet failures on them from what I had read, and I tend to use GooglePay and a few games that need SafetyNet.

Can't really answer that definitively, it came out a few hours ago. I don't consider using Beta releases as proof, and the thing about battery life, is that it is so dependent on what you do with your phone, that each one of us will get different results.
I'm surprised that the update is only 16 MB if you're on the final beta, but I think I remember the update from Android 8 beta to 9 being similarly tiny. That's a pretty good indicator that barely anything changed from beta 6.

See the August Q Beta thread, he fixed by going back to Pie then OTA

cant change calendar sound, media storage crashed when try changing calendar notification sound
WIFI and Bluetooth broken after update
WIFI and bluetooth will not stay on. Factory reset doesn't help. Neither does going back to Android 9 and doing another OTA to 10. Staying on 9 until further notice!

2. Force dark mode is good, but in Facebook app highlight text/Notification text is turn to white.
3. No Face unlock
4. Media crash on calendar sound
5. can`t use gesture navigation with 3rd party launcher
Hope essential read this thread..

Same for me
(can change sound in aCalendar+ app)
Updated OTA last night. So far so good, not noticed any specific issues yet.
Kudos to essential for keeping so on top of these updates. If they do ever release another one I will buy one so long as they strengthen the phone/data signal a bit. That is pretty much my only disappointment with this one, but still it was worth every cent of the 200 bucks or so I paid for it.
Flashed ota through twrp and rooted using Magisk's canary build.
No issues thus far. I can change the stock calendar notification without media crash, but I'm only using the stock sounds. Are those experiencing issues using custom sounds?
Still can`t use gesture navigation with 3rd party launcher?

Got bubbles to work!

I've seen others struggling to get bubbles to work.
I was disappointed to find that bubbles were still not working for me after updating to the October security patch.
However!
I simply disabled developer settings, and now they're working flawlessly
I did go on the beta program for google messenger, but I it was only after turning off developer settings that the bubbles icon appeared as it should.
Curious if this works for others
I have bubbles working with dev ops on. I've had them since cleaning installing 11.

Where did you go in developer settings to change bubbles?

Disabling developer options had nothing to do with it. Joining Messages Beta was what you were missing.
