Substratum Automation for Oreo unrooted - prjkt.io

I have a note 9 phone Oreo unrooted and use substratum themes on it. Wondering if it would be possible to automate the process of clicking on the "install" and "done" buttons when installing themes and likewise clicking on the "OK" button when uninstalling themes. This would make it a lot easier when installing or removing a ton of overlays. I have created an amature tasker module for this but it does not always work properly and would love to see this ability built into substratum rootless oreo. Thanks!

Anybody out there? Sorry just wondering if automation is possible as a feature?

xposed modules ?

Hello!
Sorry if I'm in the wrong place, if so please redirect me. I'm wondering if there are any xposed modules specific to samsung tablets? I already have xuimod (basically just for animations) and wanam. I know about gravity box obviously too but wondering if there's anything else that could benefit my experience with this tab?
Also as a side note , is there a way to change settings to list view? The way they have these tabs set up drives me nuts! I'd like to keep stock from but if I can't change this through xposed than just might have to flash..
Thanks

there are many modules related to Samsung
just install the closed module installer
and see download section
you will find a lot of Samsung specific modules
Modules don't have to be specific to these devices to work. Key to installing is to read through the support threads of the module to see if any touchwiz based devices have issues. If a slew of them do its a safe bet that the module isn't compatible with the Note pro. If other note tablets are confirmed to work then it's likely but not guaranteed to work. As always, keep a backup just in case you have to wipe and restore.

[Q] What can the average power user actually do with the s6 once it is rooted?

The subject may have seemed weird, but I've been really pondering this. When I had my S5 I rooted it, installed Xposed, and there was all kinds of cool tweaks I could do to fix all the flaws of the S5.
I rooted the S6 edge when I got it, and found out that Xposed is not compatible (32 bit only?) and there's no telling when the dev will actually care to make it work. So I have a rooted S6 Edge, and couldn't figure out a reason why. The S6 Edge actually doesn't have a lot of the flaws that I needed to fix on the S5, so I'm at a loss.
So please tell me, what do I do with a rooted S6 Edge that makes it better than stock? Is there something like Xposed that I don't know about that actually makes it useful for the average power user?
TIA
Installing Custom Roms.
Currently for the S6 you have the option of installing a Deodex or Odex version of a Rom. XtreSto Lite gives you the choice in how you want your phone to run. Also the ability to have a custom recovery like TWRP. You can literally take an entire backup of your entire phone, apps, data and keep it for when your phone starts to slow down, play up or derps itself from an install.
Tweaks
Installing things like 3Minit Framework or Alliance Framework which is out allows you to add more features. Longpress Volume keys, Extended Power Menus, Custom Lockscreen Carrier stuff, different statusbar icons to name a few. While Xposed provides you with runtime modifications, these frameworks are the only real mods which we can use until Xposed is eventually supported for S6 variants.
Some apps need root access too. BetterBatterStats, ES File explorer has a root mode. Depends on what apps you use.
Overall "just rooting" provides your average power user with more options than stock. You can also have newer firmwares sooner so you can try out features that have been hyped quicker. (and then roll back easy with the custom recovery if you dont like).
I came from an S3 with Xposed to an S6 without and its been difficult. You might consider to drop a donation to arter97, who plans to extend support for his Xposed workaround to arm64 devices, namely S6 and beyond.

Hope this helps.
Edit: If you havent had the opportunity to use Xposed it provides the abilitiy to really easily modify to your phone. Youtube adAway, SnapPrefs (for snapchat) are just some modules that you download and install from the Xposed repository, instead of having to wait for features to be implemented, you can apply them yourself, really really easily.

I found out about Xposed and it was the whole reason I rooted my S5. Loved it, and used the modules that would disable the 'volume warning' and 'usb cover warning'. When I rooted my S6, I tried to install Xposed only to find out it was useless, and thus the reason for the thread.
The fact that you said this...

... at least lets me know that you're sharing my frustration. I'll look into 3Minit and Alliance, thanks. I didn't know about these other frameworks.
If you are running a S6 Edge try look at edgarf's XtraStoLite Roms. Its got Alliance included as an optional addon. (Alliance has been around for a few months and 3Minit currently looks like its just starting up).
My main reasons always: File managers with advanced permissions, titanium backup, processor throttlers. I'm not into custom ROMs, unless they provide some truly unique functions.

Substratum says no overlays are installed?.....try this!

Ok, so I spent the better part of today trying to figure out why Substratum would successfully compile themes, but after rebooting it would say no overlays are installed, therefore I couldn't enable them.
Info:
Resurrection Remix 7.1.2
Galaxy Note 4
Latest version of Nougat-compatible Substratum, from APKMirror
Substratum theme interfacer installed as system app
Latest stable version of Magisk
Latest Play Store/Play Services
Substratum theme mode: RRO legacy (ROM dev says there is limited OMS support, but Substratum doesn't detect it)
Latest Flux (black), Swift Black, Pitch Black, bought from Play Store
I tried upgrading/downgrading Substratum as well, made no difference. It successfully compiled and installed themes, but after reboot, no overlays present. I can see all the installed overlays in /data/app, though they don't show up in Settings' installed apps list.
I went looking for an alternative to Substratum, and found an app called Bucket, on F-Droid website. The app is old, your theme will probably have a lock icon on it, and the message "Theme is using unsupported template version". Just ignore this. Tap on the 3 dots menu in upper right corner of app, then "Installed". You should see a list of installed overlays, check off the ones you want enabled, then click the + button in bottom right, then "Enable selected". You might need to reboot too.
This fixed the issue for me, now Flux, Swift Black, and Pitch Black all work fine.
So, in simple steps:
Install Substratum
Install Bucket
Install your theme
In Substratum, compile the theme
Reboot
In Bucket, enable the overlays
Reboot
Profit!
I'm thinking maybe this info might help others that are experiencing this issue. Of course, you don't need Bucket if Substratum detects your overlays.
Edit: I just discovered that, once enabled, the overlays will appear in Substratum, despite it saying no overlays installed before. So you would only need to use Bucket to initially enable overlays, afterwards you can manage them from Substratum.

Question Is there something similar to Hide apps function on OOS, on other custom roms or is there a way to imitate that?

I'm trying to hide some apps and access it with a pin code like I used to do when I had OOS. I have Nameless OS on my Oneplus 9 but there seems to be no way to hide apps like how I used to do. There are some apps that seems to be able to do that, but the apps are a bit quirky and doesn't work properly.
I use PSOL launcher off the playstore. It has a great hide app functionality.

Question Any tweak tools/oxygen os toolkits or anything for OOS 13? And is there a way to enable userdebug mode?

Im trying to find tools that can enable more customization and tweaks than what comes with stock OOS. I have a global converted tmobile LE2117. If anyone knows of any APKs or magisk/lsposed modules that are similar to gravitybox or firefds kit but for oneplus/OOS 13 any links/help would be appreciated. i tried the AOSP toolkit to no avail. I also have tried the Oxygen OS tweaks app on the play store but even its lacking a bunch of features and tweaks that i miss from Samsung galaxy note 9. Then there is LuckyTool for OOS but it also is missing features. Things like power button long press for torch and volume keys change media and stuff like that. Im also tryin to look into possibly changing the build mode to userdebug or change ro.debuggable from 0 to 1. I want to be able to change my boot animations. And the last thing would be customizing the fingerprint icon and other lockscreen stuff. Thank you.
Oxygen is byfare most costumizeable rom so , not sure what's your looking for with magisk you can change the fonts and emotie.
Butt that's about it I think ...

then you havent used OneUI 1-5 + GoodLock. Samsung absolutely killed it with customizations and features. Even stock OneUI has a bunch of creature comforts OOS just didnt add or they overlooked them.
My only Samsung phone is unfortunately dead it was the Galaxy Note 3 and Samsung make quality phone butt I moved on to affordable brand sinds then i own 2 time 1+6
En this phone one+9 !
And your probably right butt Samsung is not really the right leak as 1plus !

But then you root, and lose the ability to use goodlock... so you need to use lsposed and gravitybox to get the tweaks back.
OP lsposed AOSPmods and Xposed edge pro you will find almost endless features between the two
*AOSPmods more for customizing, Xposed Edge for adding features like volume button launching (use double press to launch and tasker script)
PS: AOSPmods https://github.com/siavash79/AOSPMods
Xposed Edge is on play store (most useful module ever imo, so many features its insane and its 100 percent stable)

goodlock isnt disable if you root? i used stock android 10 rom on my note 9 rooted and goodlock still worked. and even then, most samsung phones have OneUI/android 10-13 ports from newer devices. and those usually all come with either optional goodlock install or goodlock support. as far as i understand, goodlock isnt root specific i believe, more just it being only country specific.
as far as AOSPmods go, i tried them on OOS13 to no avail. but i just reinstalled the TMO global conversion stock android 11 rom so i will try it again on there
Xposed Edge ive never heard of and i will check that out thank you.
My last phone A32 5G locked out all Samsung apps if root.

I traded it in to get this phone.
It was probably knox... the phone hardly had a scene, I had to pay to get it rooted, and I was never able to update. These were conditions of the root.
Regardless I was able to do everything goodlock did with xposed, so in the end it doesn't really matter. Plus no samsung bloat.

its a shame AOSP Mods doesnt support android 11. I havent had much luck with finding tweak/customization apps, modules, or twrp zip. I really miss my OneUI phone, easily hands down the best skin/variant of android made.
Why not use Android 13 and custom rom?
Why not use custom launcher like nova that trivializes OneUI or OOS? Exponentially more feature rich.

i prefer Lawnchair over any other 3rd party launcher
And i have tried android 13 custom roms but i really hate stock android. Maybe if there was a modded/custom OOS 13 rom i would be more inclined to try one. Until then i stay away from stock/AOSP roms.
