Layers Themes For Xperia 5.0+

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

Yupp, tried the Art theme. Doesn't work.
Get white text on white background with no icons visible.
In short, nothing visible.

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.

Today's Setup Looking Awesome

You should join layers beta here

and layers google group
https://plus.google.com/communities...9/stream/850e4326-9f12-470d-8af8-5859eb3219ce
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.

How do I use Layers Managers

Hi guys
I've decided to give layers a go but for the life of me I can't get it to work. When I apply my overlays I am promoted to reboot. After I reboot nothing... No theme, no overlays nothing.
Does this work on the stock ROM 6.01?
Are there specific themes that will work?
Am I doing this wrong?

I am using Milos UI, it looks great. When prompting for reboot inside layers manager app, don't reboot from there, just manually reboot. It worked for me..

I'm using layers on my moto G with Krexus ROM. Can someone confirm that layers is compatible with the stock 6.01 rom.
The link posted above had people talking about custom ROMs so I'm still in doubt

Yes its compatible but it is missing some commits and due to that some themes likes magpie, coalesce, etc won't be able to change colors.

I'm having the same issue...What kernel are you guys using? Is permissive required?

You need to delete vendor/overlay if you previously tried installing Layers. This is what fixed it for me.

Hey man, I saw you had Coalesce and Figlio. I was actually trying to decide which one of those to buy and try for Nougat. If you don't mind, which one do you prefer? Or think works better with N?

Guys N just dropped some most Substratum themes are not working perfectly on N. They can be used but everything won't work perfectly. Also since we are on stock rom we are using Substratum Legacy you need a custom ROM with the oms commits in order to get Masquerade and since N just dropped there aren't any at the moment

Came here to say this. Non of the themes are really compatible with N yet. I tried about a dozen different ones. Ran into issues with apps force closing after applying themes. I had a few crash Documents, a few that would crash settings when you go to change certain settings. Give it a little bit for the themes to update. Might have to wait for the factory images to go live for the 6P. All in all, substratum does work in legacy mode so you need to reboot after changes are applied. Just note that you may run into errors and FC's.

Deity theme works in legacy mode with no issues, using theme ready gapps though

[MOD][MAGISK] GPE Dialer and Contacts Magisk Mod for HTC 10.

Pixel GPE Dialer and Contacts​
This mod now works with Android N.
Updated to Google Pixel version of the Dialer and Contacts
I have taken the GPE Dialer and Contacts found here [url]http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68096911&postcount=95[/URL] and made it a Magisk Module. This allows the Dialer to act as though it is installed directly with in the system without actually modifying the system
For information on what Majisk is and how to install it, please read here: [url]http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/mod-magisk-v1-universal-systemless-t3432382[/URL]
This mod was tested on the HTC 10 using Magisk v7.
Only thing you can't do is change your Wi-Fi calling preference. If you are on WiFi preferred, you can't change it unless you disable the MOD and reboot. Make your change then re-rnable the MOD and reboot again. That is the only problem I have. It is the same if you flash the original zip that writes directly to system.
This zip file requires Magisk to be installed. It will not work without Magisk.
Changes sync'd and now available to download in Magisk Manager. Thanks for those testing...
v3.0.0
Update to new Magisk template to work with Magisk v12+
Update Dialer to v8.0.148481159
Update Contacts to v1.7.6
Or download from here: Magisk-GPEDialer_HTC10.v3.0.0
Download Here:
Magisk v7 version
This can be installed through the Magisk Manager 2.0 or flashed in recovery.
Note: All updates will only be available through the Magisk Manager going forward.
10/16/16 - New update with Google Contacts 1.5.16 downloadable through the Magisk Manager...
GPEDialer Pixel Version 2.0.0
GPEDialer_v5.1.13(Magisk v7)
GPEDialer Marshmallow Version 1.0.0
GPEDialer_v4.0.12(Magisk v7)
Magisk v6 version
Flash the zip file in recovery.
GPEDialer_v4.0.12(Magisk v6)

Thanks for posting, I personally prefer the Google Dialer UI over the Stock HTC. Is there any functionality issues? such as wifi calling compatibility, or speakerphone, receiving calls etc?

Use a root file explorer to go to /magisk/GPEDialer folder. Create a new empty file and name it disable then reboot
To re-enable, just delete the file and reboot.

That worked thanks!

Just a quick observation I noticed after using this mod for the past few days,
The ice view case works on receiving/rejecting calls with the GPE Dialer, but the caller always shows as "unknown". I'm assuming it's due to the HTC Contacts app integration into Ice View, but just figured I'd mention it. The fact that everything else works flawlessly, is totally awesome.

As far as I know, heads up notifications have to be supported by the rom you are using. I am using Viper 3.1 and it works for me.

I'm sorry, there is really nothing I can do. All I did was package the dialer to work as a Magisk Module. I don't use xposed but maybe there is an xposed module to do what you want. I just have no idea. Maybe someone else can suggest something.

What's your root method? This happened to me once before also. I was rooted with Magisk so I installed the add GA module. Quick and easy and it was back. If you are rooted with SuperSU then I would recommend uninstalling it with the uninstaller zip found in the SU thread. Alternatively you can install Magisk over the top of it but all the features like Magisk hide may not work. Another option would be to flash a different Rom. Nitrogen and Cortex are both good options and GA should work by default.

Rom Toolbox may be running into a conflict with the Pixel Launcher you flashed. I have a similar root and pixel launcher setup minus fonts and other customizations and my shortcut to RT widgets is broken as it will not create the shortcut on the home screen. I haven't had the time to investigate, but it isn't a high priority for me.
Have you tried a clean flash of the October rom?
- Wipe data/dalvik/cache
- flash your various stock rom images (bootloader, radio, boot, system, vendor)
- flash your root method
- flash pixel launcher and reboot into system.
- Setup phone, G Assist, etc.
- Install Rom Toolbox and desired mods
Lengthy process, but it may be worthwhile to contact JRummy, the author of the Pixel launcher, and sending various logs for analysis and help...

hello did you try to clear cache and data from the google app and reboot? that helped me.

What's your root method? This happened to me once before also. I was rooted with Magisk so I installed the add GA module. Quick and easy and it was back. If you are rooted with SuperSU then I would recommend uninstalling it with the uninstaller zip found in the SU thread. Alternatively you can install Magisk over the top of it but all the features like Magisk hide may not work. Another option would be to flash a different Rom. Nitrogen and Cortex are both good options and GA should work by default.

I use Chainfire's systemless root method. I've had GA with this root method before... I'll research Magisk (I've read a little about it, but not enough to be comfortable to jump into it yet) if I'm not able to find another solution. Thank you for your suggestion.

Rom Toolbox may be running into a conflict with the Pixel Launcher you flashed. I have a similar root and pixel launcher setup minus fonts and other customizations and my shortcut to RT widgets is broken as it will not create the shortcut on the home screen. I haven't had the time to investigate, but it isn't a high priority for me.
Have you tried a clean flash of the October rom?
- Wipe data/dalvik/cache
- flash your various stock rom images (bootloader, radio, boot, system, vendor)
- flash your root method
- flash pixel launcher and reboot into system.
- Setup phone, G Assist, etc.
- Install Rom Toolbox and desired mods

I didn't flash any Pixel launchers... I use Action launcher. I was hoping to avoid wiping all my data, but will do it if I can't get anything else working. Thanks!

Yeah, tried that a few days ago and just tried it again, no dice.
