Here is the method to install Layers Theme on your Xperia Smartphone :
Don't Blame Me If Anything Goes Wrong
I Have Tested It On My Phone And It Works Pretty Well
Under Any Circumstances Whatsoever I Am Not Responsible For Any Loss Of Data,
Dead SD cards , Thermonuclear War , etc.( most of the other developers say this )
Read All The Instructions Before Heading Ahead. Have Fun Theming
Prerequisite :
#Recovery Installed
#Rooted Xperia
#Running 5.0+
#Latest Version Of BusyBox Installed
#A Nandroid Backup (Just For Precaution)
Flash this file and install busybox if you don't want to go through these steps : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_Ko5aGRXGsEa3ZyMTl5U3J0QXc/view?usp=docslist_api
1) Goto Playstore and install Layers Manager App
2) Goto Playstore and search for layers theme and choose any theme you like
3)Open Layers Manager App and give #Root permission
4)Goto Settings and check on unnecessary overlays(optional)
5)Goto main home of app and choose the theme
6)Apply your favorite overlays and Reboot
NOTE:
1} Before applying any new overlays first uninstall the previous ones
2}You have to be on stock Xperia lollipop themes for navbar buttons to change according to Layers theme since the Xperia theme engine also uses the same technology of RR Overlay which layers use.Hence if you will apply any other Xperia theme other than stock, it will create another overlay upon it and you won't be able to see the nav bar buttons from LAYERS THEME
3} It doesnt have full support for xperia apps . hence some of the elements will have buggy appearance
4} For Best Experience install GOOGLE APPS coz its what the layers themes have been made for
6} FC's or bootloops occuring after applying overlays may be due to bad overlays.So always take a nandroid backup before messing up with your phone
7} FC's occuring after uninstalling overlays can be easily solved by a reboot
8} For those who are stuck after pressing reboot , Please remove your battery and reinsert it (if its removable) or Press the force reset or shutdown button. (Generally Xperia phones have them on the back of their phones under the panel) On boot up first uninstall That bad layers framework or system Ui Overlay . If you want then you can remove them form recovery only
9} For bad overlays here is the fix :
Go to recovery (twrp) and navigate to mount and check on System and Then open file manager. Navigate to system /vendor /overlay and delete the apk and Reboot
10} Mostly the bootloops are caused by bad or incompatible framework overlays ... So use with care Install Layers Showcase for more themes and to find that it supports your device or not
For more themes and tweaks join the community

Commute UI works if you also add the overlay that removes titles. This overlay turned to work quite well. Beware though, don't install framework or system ui apks. Can result in a boot loop. If that happens, you need to remove them through recovery.

and if you get bootloop and anything is messed up, delete systemui and framework overlays from /system/vendor/overlays, better to just empty that folder before you start or when anythings messed up
delete framework and systemui from recovery only, because once running if you delete them, the system wil become irresponsive
Guys, i think i messed up. I'm getting bootloop after installing the grey theme. Now the thing is, i don't have any recovery installed to delete those overlays. And i cant install XZDualRecovery, because of the bootloops. So now, do you have any solution to recover other than a clean install.?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

2.it may not work if u r using a theme it will only work on stock ui theme
3.this is mod is as per build 02/08 so using m9 is highly recommended
4.DO NOT FLASH THIS FRAMEWORK IF IT IS YOUR FIRST BOOT IN ROM OR DONT WIPE DATA WHEN THIS FRAMEWORK IS ALREADY INSTALLED IT WILL GO IN BOOTLOOP
UPDATE:IT DOESNT WORK ON LATEST CM11 BUILDS
3.U MAY FIND SCREEN SHOTS OF FRAMEWORK IN THE LOWER POSTS SCREENSHOTS OF APPS WILL BE UPLOADED SOON
4.I REQUEST ANYONE TO PLEASE UPLOAD THE SCREEN SHOTS AFTER TESTING OF THE APPS
5.THE MOD JUST CHANGES THE FRAMEWORK-RES.APK SO IF ANY ONE WANTS TO REVERT BACK JUST REPLACE THE FRAMEWORK-RES.APK OF MOD WITH OF YOUR RESPECTIVE ROM,a backup is still recommended

yeah, but it's not like a full rom of xperia with all the features, design, apps, etc.
like this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo.../port-nexsense-sense-6-0-wifi-fix-m8-t2703397
which is actually a port of the original M8 system.
the system is still cm11 only with the design of xperia.
@dors1234 Yeah you are correct but you are comparing two totally different things i am trying to make the rom look almost like xperia and i m still working on it, the things which u r talking about is way too difficult even for a highly qualified developer, both the concepts r port only,and its not so easy to do this task too it took me 4 days you cant really comparing it to a theme and the port you are comparing to is still in alpha state

thanks anyway for your work.
It would seem that the RRO layers themes do work on the Marshmallow stock ROM. After hearing about Marshmallow supporting it by default, i decided to see if it actually works on the Stock Marshmallow ROM. As far as I can tell, the only thing that doesn't work for me is the soft reboot after selecting the desired layer and applying it. :victory:
Update - If after uninstalling certain layers, the theme doesn't change back to normal, then using a file explorer, go to system/vendor/overlays and delete all the contents in the folder.
Will this work in moto g turbo too running marshmallow?
I read a post in x play page that using two themes same time results in bootloop

I do not know.. It should work.. But you might want to make a backup of your rom and data in recovery before applying a layers theme.

This has always been an issue with RRO, if you apply some things that overlap what they do. Not exclusive to Moto X or any device, in the right combination it will bootloop, but you should be able to boot into safe mode, or via the TWRP file manager, and remove the offending APK's from /system/vendor/overlay, and reboot and the phone will be happy again.
Of course you can always backup and restore a nandroid, but layers was designed so this shouldn't ever be necessary.
Make a tutorial mate.

I'm not new to the rooting community. I'm only new to RRO. I've tried it on my old phone and i ended up crashing everything on my phone.. (Not moto) it was an asus zenfone. Since then i haven't tried layers. Given the fact that mm is supporting rro layers natively has piqued my interest for it, so was inquisitive abt it. Thanks mate.

I have busybox installed. I think the problem is that can't reboot correctly. When I reboot it seems it always does a softboot. The notifications remain, the recent apps too. Also some tweaks I made on gravity box (MM) that require reboot aren't applied.
By the way, sorry for my English, I'm Italian.

i also had the same problem because i installed busybox in "system/bin" but after installing busybox in "system/xbin" layers are working perfectly. I'm also using xposed & gravitybox.
It worked! Thank you! I didn't read correctly the first time (missed that "x"). The Gravity Box problem is still there (as expected) but i don't think this is the right place in the forums to talk about that. I hope to find a solution soon
Tested working on MI5-Gemini running on CM14 LineageOS, Other CM-Based ROMs still to be tested.
NOTE: Admin kindly delete this thread or close it if it has already been discussed.
WARNING: Your device may end up in bootloop if you are not careful! Follow at your own risk! BACKUP EVERYTHING BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE...
Now, unto the best part!
Tired of the whites? Try going dark! We all know CM Theme engine has been missing on the latest CM 14.1 builds. And we all know that substratum causes bootloops in cm 14.1 based ROMs. I have found a workaround for this problem through a substratum theme provided at the playstore (hurray to the developers!)
How to make it work (Root Access Required)
1. Download substratum app at the playstore
2. Install this paid theme (also at the play store)
(Swift Black Substratum Theme *compatible with Nougat 7.1.1)
3. Open substratum and select Swift Black Substratum Theme
4. Allow root access
5. Choose android version 7_1_1or 7_1_1_OMS
Patch everything Except Android system!
(Device may end up in bootloop if you do so... I havent tested compatibility with this yet so if you are not sure, un-check it! (Refer to attached pic in post)
EDIT: if you choose 7_1_OMS setting it will work fine without bootloops even after patching Android System provided, that the thene supports this option. (thank you @etoy)
6. Restart device.... Enjoy!
Credits to all the developers of Substratum and theme makers!
and to Cyanogen/LineageOS
*This is my first XDA thread ever so please forgive me if i cant post some links and pics ATM(due to post requirements) but im very much obliged to answer your questions)
Confirmed working settings for LineageOS in substratum
*Android 7_1
*Patch everything except android System
*Theme is lost after every LineageOS OTA update or Version update.
*If this happens just re-patch substratum all over again...
*Haven't tested Non 7.1.1 compatible themes, only this one... If other themes worked for you, then let me know so i can check out too...
UPDATE:
Using an alternate rooting technique for the latest LineageOS Build, I got it up and running again!
*Works with 7_1_OMS setting
etoy said:
i'm using swift black theme on 0116 lineage and i can confirm it works 100%

Other working themes (Free on Playstore)
PixelUI(fully compatible with 7.1.1 LineageOS)
Galaxy Evolution (fully compatible with 7.1.1 LineageOS)
SIX Theme(Works but dont patch "Android System")
Lemme know if any other themes worked for you so we can add it on the list!
The only substratum stuff I want for LineageOS is the font changer!
I also tested some others Substratum themes ... will add functional later.
I do hope they will be fully compatible with LineageOS soon as CM Theme manager seems to be dead on CM14.1 due to a different RR implementation.

1. You don't need to install that paid theme. I'm using Pixel UI Substratum theme just fine. Those instructions are misleading. One might think he need to put money in that theme developer's pocket as a necessary step to use Substratum.
2. Dark theme is cool and less painful for your eyes. And that's about it. Less battery drain? Only on AMOLED display. Our MI5 is LCD so the leds will produce light. On black, on gray or on white. No difference. And even on AMOLED displays, a dark theme will save battery only on true black (#000000). Anything else means led "on" and therefore power consumption.

not on lineage. some other roms have full support to OMS/substratum/masquerade/rro/layers or how the hell they call it now. those roms have full compatibility with subs themes, including android system, fonts, bootanimations, etc and usually don't require a reboot

can anyone confirm that it's working on the LG V20?
I've just come from Dirty Unicorns and Pure Nexus on a 6P, and I've loved substratum for theming my phone. But... OOS would be legacy, I understand. Has anyone tried Subs on OP5, any recommendations? I've also seen a Magisk module for making legacy systemless. Anyone tried it? I don't feel like boot looping my new phone!
Also if I'm just rooted, can I install themes like swift black?
Don't use Substratum on OOS, rooted or not, I tried it and ended up having to restore the backup I'd made after it caused all sorts of complications, my advice? Wait for the custom roms to start appearing.

Thank you for saving me all sorts of trouble.
I tried "Navigate" to configure the navbar. Works without issues. But i wouldn't apply system wide themes. Like @djsubterrain said.
With root you can apply themes system wide that support OOS (I think only swift dark and black right now)
I did and it's working fine, full black apps and system.
If you're paranoid then you can just theme apps and use built in themer to make system black or white.
Does anyone tried ozone substratum?
im rooted and with sustratum working fine, im using swift black and inversion themes.

If you're paranoid then you can just theme apps and use built in themer to make system black or white.

Yeah... I was always able to theme via substratum on all of my rooted devices, including oneplus 3 on stock.
The thing is, you generally, (lie 99% of the time) should not theme system ui or android system as that almost always results in a bootloop.
This is with the exclusion of themes specifically designed for oxygen os like k clock and swift dark
Sent from my Moto Z Play using XDA Labs
So I just need to be on stock rooted OP 5 with Subtranium installed to use Swift Dark on system ui?

Yes, that will do, I'm running that too. There is an option to enable OxygenOS 4 compatibility right under the logo. That will make sure that you have a compatible (a.k.a. none) SystemUI overlay

Great thanks. My OP 5 is being delivered today so I'm doing some research on I'm going to load on it. I saw that FreedomOS has Substratum Legacy support but I'd like to try the stock rom first.

I'm running it right now, but i'm using it just for centered clock and to change the "4G" to "LTE" in the status bar.
No issues on my side so far.
Currently running OOS 4.5.1 with magisk v13 beta (96f8efc)

I use it for centered clock, QS Tiles 4 icons and Clear All (tasks) button on the left.
No problem so far.
I'm using Valerie as the main theme, and Big Blu to fill in things that Valerie doesn't do.
Also, Ozone for center clock and QS 5.
Fontio works with a .ttf file (or choose one of the provided fonts) if you use the flashable zip option - in the settings there's a place to create a restore zip, so do that first in case. Both files will be put on your internal memory in a Fontio folder.
edit: I forgot that the power menu doesn't work with this setup, so I made my own with Tasker/GMD.

I can't even see any difference when you theme the system lol so I don't even think it's necessary

Stock has the same substratum support as freedom Os... It's the legacy layers theming, so if you root stock, it will work the same way. Just install the substratum app from the store and try out. ?
fully working here, rooted with magisk and substratum is ok with theming everything, but yeah, like above, power menu doesn't work and if pressed it soft reboot phone... resolved installing material power menu

Don't use Substratum on OOS, rooted or not, I tried it and ended up having to restore the backup I'd made after it caused all sorts of complications, my advice? Wait for the custom roms to start appearing.

As substratum cannot theme the framework in nougat, I have done it for all of you buddies. This will work best with Black themes.
This thread is for those who are using Black themes(specially Substratum Themes) in their Stock ROMs.
I have modified the framework-res.apk and systemUI.apk to make the notification pannel completely black.
Hope you will like it.
Please don't share direct download links or use the apps in any other ways without my permission.
Installation Procedure:
Backup your /system/framework/framework-res.apk and /system/priv-app/SystemUI/SystemUI.apk.
Reboot to recovery(TWRP recommended) by pressing Volume Up+Power+Home button.
Install the downloaded zip one at a time (order doesn't matter).
Reboot to system.
Wait until it reboots.

SystemUI keeps crashing. On stock rom with March security patch and magisk root
This is kind of useless... If you apply High Contrast or High contrast 2 from Samsung themes the whole UI is black except notifications. For black notifications as well (and an ever sleeker notification bar look) you can install bodhisattva through apk and apply through samsung themes, then use the app called theme killer to permanently apply it and reboot. Literally 0 modding needed!
