Well the pixel launcher version is still the same:

Flashed this on my Oneplus One, 3 and Nexus 5. Works great. Thank-you so much @edwaine and @LlabTooFeR
Just a question, do I need to be on a Nougat rom to have the white transparent shade at the dock? Because I don't have one on stock MM.

It installed the launcher as System, but still I don't get the Google Swipe to left screen, even if activated. I didn't unistall the old version first; is that the problem?

Use Substratum themes in MIUI

I am currently on MIUI-MM on my Kenzo as I needed working VoLTE .
But MIUI only allows to theme system elements and all other elements remain unthemed. (GAPPs, Whatsapp, Browser etc).
For testing, I installed Substratum and found it working fine for most of the supported applications.
Please note to skip system applications from theming. And as Substratum is working in legacy mode in MIUI MM, phone needs to be restarted after applying theme.
Some screenshots attached from MIUI MM.
Nice find

Install "Substratum" from playstore.
You can also find themes in playstore. Search for "substarum themes"
* your phone must be rooted to use this.

Which (dark) themes work in Legacy mode?
Ah,nevermind got it after checking the screenshots. But in Play Store it shows "not compatible with your device version". I did try to obtain it elsewhere but package parsing error occurred. How do I get it?
Great find dude...!!

Im using Redmi note 4 - wanted to run substratum Themes no root
Do anyone know how to run substratum Themes on Miui theme engine without Root
--OR--
Convert substratum Themes to Miui themes (.mtz)

You need root to work, it's because many elements are located in protected or un reached places with no root privilages.
Try to root your phone, or use Magisk to hide root (or XPOSED as there is MIUI v9 version).
To OP
Thanks dude, it's a perfect find, I have RN4 too, and it's pleasure to hear that substratum themes are working fine in in-app environment.

I'm on MIUI-MM too, but when I try to download the substratum theme engine (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=projekt.substratum) Google Play shows no compatible devices. Did you sideload it, or am I looking at the wrong app?

Are you using xposed ?
Are you using xposed? And also on what version are you on? Are you trying the correct themes? (for example if you are on lollipop (EMUI 3.1) you can use every theme made for the EMUI 4.0, 4.1.x etc).
No , but now I install Xposed
Then I try to change theme
It's applying OK
But font never change,still the stock one

did you manually updated your phone? I updated mine and got the balong bug, ever since I cant change themes, same as you... but since I own nova thats not really a problem :laugh:

You need to use Eui launcher? No root you can install other launcher from Playstore easiest way to have app drawer, Flick launcher, Nova etc
If you want to use Eui launcher:
I think you need root and install one other launcher on the phone. I use app from Playstore "Root Uninstaller" by KunKunSoft to uninstall existing Eui launcher(Launcher3), reboot the phone. Then install new Launcher3 1.3.3.04 (apk file) from my link.

There is app call "Pixel drawer" by Sagar Vasnani if you want just app drawer, sometime I use it, just search by word "drawer" on Playstore
Thanks for the replies i really appreciate it
I want to stay completely on stock as my banking apps wont work otherwise, even with magisk and safetynet pass. I dont want other launhcer either
I just want the LeEco launcher to be updated, do i have to log into my leeco account as i havent created one? Do i have to set it to a specific region? as i have it set to other regions
many thanks in advance

Because its conflict with ur stock miui launcher.
thanks, but is there a solution ? If it's in conflict, no one should be able to install the Alpha or Beta.

Let me know:good:
So I'm back with some feedback, I deactivated the system launcher and attempted to install the Alpha version - "app not installed", same result with the Beta. Then I completely deinstalled the system launcher (after installing Poco launcher), and finally managed to install the Beta version from apk mirror website, but it kept crashing. I'm using Poco for now as I want an app drawer.

Install xposed if you haven't already and then CustoMIUIzer. There is a setting to downgrade apps. Just got the app drawer launcher working. Backup first if you don't have xposed installed. Just in case
Cheers
I'm gonna try that for sure, gonna come back with feedback later today.

Reverts back after a reboot.
New version released today (August 8, 2019) - ALPHA-4.12.1151-08072050 (41201151). It has no App Drawer.
Latest version witch has App Drawer is "ALPHA-4.10.6.1043-06261633 (41061043)".
Wonder if they have given up on App Drawer for good... it's sad, I really like this App Drawer...

It still have app drawer if installed on top of previous version with app drawer. There is no option to select app drawer or the classic one. Now have share button when long press an icon and "search for apps" at bottom of app drawer.

Wow! it works! I was uninstalling previous version and installing new one (witch I thought was the right procedure), and I was getting a Launcher without App Drawer.
So, we have to first install "ALPHA-4.10.6.1043-06261633 (41061043)", then we have to enable App Drawer (option in chinese in Launcher settings), to finally install "ALPHA-4.12.1151-08072050 (41201151)" and still have App Drawer (with new search option!!).
Thanks for your tip! It's really good news to see they are still working on App Drawer!
Hello,
Don't install the version ALPHA-4.16.0.1457-01131743 from January 19, 2020, its force close.
