You'll need Root if you on 7.1.2, but when Oreo update arrive, we can use Substratum Rootless+Andromeda

You have to be rooted.
Install substratum apk.
Install some theme apk and try to apply it in substratum, be careful it's possible to get bootloop.

it says substratum legacy.. i just installed it on google play store.. i cant get any theme to work. and i have stock rom with rooted magisk..

it says RRO2 (legacy)

Should work. Do you use any Magisk modules for substratum? Like for example there is a module called Substratum Systemless and I don't think that will work

Well I had an Xperia phone and substratum was working on that, and unlike A1 that was a custom Android ROM made by Sony. Be sure you install Legacy versions of themes and you don't use any substratum related magisk modules ( look again and make sure that module is disabled)

Compatibility with Layers or Substratum themes

Does anyone know if the stock ROM is compatible with the "Layer or Substratum" theme app from the Play store?
yup. Substratum works quite fine. However, I tried using transparent/dark themes and had issues with Settings because the font remained black. Maybe someone can help?

It really works?? No bootloop or bugs? Can you try Pixel UI theme app for substratum and then say if it works? I have a zenfone 3 deluxe with android nougat. It should work anyway, but maybe only with marshmallow

Sorry I don't have the phone anymore. But I remember I didn't get any bootloop. However the themes i tried (mostly dark themes) are not working properly because the font will remain dark.

If you have rooted your phone, then you'll be able to use Substratum theme engine.
Wait for the Android O, the Android O support the Substratum with no root need

I have used Substratum, but the themes available in it are not that great. many of the themes are for sale & not free.
Can anyone confirm after applying substratum themes phone won't be in bootloop or bricked.

thanks, mate,
i m now rooting my phone and update you
for substratum on nougat you need root, but on Oreo there are an option for work without root (systemless) but you'll need Andromeda for Substratum for that
also not sure if you apply system UI modification it wont ended up bootloop

Dark theme for Dialer? ICS style?

Is there any way to dark theme the stock Nougat dialer. It's very harsh on the eyes. I have seen standalone dialers and flashable ones....any other choices?
Thanks!

If you are rooted, you can use substratum theme.
But theming Google apps is a nightmare.

With the Andromeda add-on you don't need root to work with substratum. Just run an ADB command to grant permissions

He mentioned Nougat Dialer.
AFAIK, Andromeda works only on Oreo..
I may be wrong though...

Works fine on my essential phone running oreo. Do you get an error of any sort
OK...no more Nougat. Now I'm on 8.1 so Hoe the hell do I get rid of the nasty bright blue dialer without resorting to an entire them or adding substratum?

Might just be the theme you're using then. Sometimes some components fail on some themes. You usually have to reboot after compiling the theme and then run Andromeda again and enable the themes after the reboot

I use the sdk 27 90.0-beta1 i suppose beta 3 will work too but idk why i haven't updated it ?
You should disable resource hook before flashing the zip and use the compatible apk it was called xposed magisk apk easy to find

Actually both le pro 3 and le max 2 are working. But if you want to install viper and dolby together, you will need to install old version of VIPER.

You can use arise so you can both have dolby and viper (yes the latest 2.5.0.5 one) plus the magisk compatibility module with the mod. Just configure install options in arise_customize.prop file then flash the zip. And you can try, add/delete other mods (included in arise) by creating other arise_customize.prop files and reflash the same zip to do it too.

Swift Installer/substratrum

Just verifying that Swift or Substratum work on the 8 pro? Since we don't have a working TWRP i wouldnt want to be stuck where i cant disable a mod because of force closes. Anyone installed swift or substratum and applied themes successfully?

Yes.
Yes Swift installer is working perfectly, but for the record, I tried installing Aether substratum theme w/ substratum lite to center clock & once I checked the option, I couldn't boot successfully. I didn't try again with reg substratum but just wanted to add the input if anyone wanted to know. Thx
