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

Does Substratum work on the offical version of nougat? I just tried using it for the first time and i cant get the themes to apply. I can get Layers to work tho on nougat but i know its not supported anymore so been trying substratum but cant get it to work.

It works on DP5 and It works on latest 7 . But it works as legacy for now. Check the Google plus substratum page to find answers about legacy.
But yes, it works, i use it myself

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
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?

So Bullhead lives on. Google has released 8.1 Dev Preview with final release planned for December...
https://www.xda-developers.com/android-8-1-oreo-developer-preview-1/
http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/1...loper-preview-final-release-planned-december/
Changelog below.
https://www.droid-life.com/2017/10/25/android-8-1-developer-preview-changelog/
Most interesting part for our 2 GB RAM device.
Improved Targeting for Low-RAM Devices
Android 8.1 (API level 27) adds two new hardware-feature constants, FEATURE_RAM_LOW and FEATURE_RAM_NORMAL, to Package Manager. These constants allow you target the distribution of your apps and APK splits to normal- or low-RAM devices.
These constants enable the Play store to promote a better user experience by highlighting apps especially well-suited to the capabilities of a given device.
has anyone tried it already? root works? magisk? thanks!
I'm running it now and I can verify that magisk 14.3 works to root 8.1
How's performance so far for those running it?

Good to hear. Might give it a whirl soon, but I'm waiting to see if there are any reports of sluggishness/lag, etc. Hopefully the battery is just as good. I actually get more battery on Oreo than Nougat, which is wild

I have also got more battery on Oreo. That's how it's supposed to be as per Google.
Did anyone get an OTA ? I'm still enrolled in the Android O beta program but got nothing so far.
So I'm on 8.0.0, do I just need to flash the dev preview via twrp or adb? I don't want to loose root and all my data.
Tell me in Dev. Prev. on nexus 5x is there pixel launcher, or is still the nexus?

Did you reboot after you applied the theme? Pie took away OMS support so Substratum doesn't theme on-the-fly anymore so you probably have to reboot for the changes to take effect.

when i tried to apply substratum with djdarknjghts Sprite, i rebooted to apply the theme. when i rebooted, i was forced to wipe the phone to get it to boot. i had another member say you have to set the boot slot etc, but if you dont mind, can you tell me precisely what your steps to apply were?
i miss my theme, but if i can avoid another full wipe for nothing, that is ideal. lol.

4) install Sprite
5) Build and apply theme.

Then i ended up having to wipe the device and could not boot.

The theme you are installing is not oos compatible, try themes like Swift Dark/Black/White, PitchBlack, Flux themes etc which are OOS compatible :good: Other themes may require full OMS support which is not present on OOS so you would end up bootloop.

yeah, that was my experience. i checked in the devs telegram and its not compatible with OOS as he doesn't own a OP device. if i were wealthy, id straight buy him one bc his themes are that amazing and thorough. i havent seen another one that themes status bar icons which is awesome.
i bought PitchBlack a while back, so i guess i will just live without statusbar icon colors for now.....
i actually like stock OOS more than i ever thought i would have. i wish they would make a status bar background and icon color picker just like the theme color picker, but with a simple RGB color picker like old school android apps had, but its probably just a pipe dream. lol. that and long press button functions are all im missing to complete my android experience on One Plus.

Hey all, currently using rooted OOS 11.0.1.1.IN11AA on OP8P and I've downloaded the Flux substratum theme that I used to use on OOS 10 without any problems. The Dev has mentioned that it is OOS 11 compatible. I have no issues with the system apps, but I get FCs on themed third party apps like Instagram, Youtube, Gmail, etc. Do you guys know of any work-around for this? I just thought it was strange that the system apps worked fine but not the third party ones. I tried applying overlays for those specific apps from another substratum theme that's meant for Android Q but they still FC'ed. This occurred in both light and dark modes.
Any help appreciated thanks!
Can you eliminate those said apps from theming?
I've been looking at substratum theming but was concerned about bootloops or a broken launcher/settings situation.

My understanding is that he is slowly adding better support for apps under 11. I'm using his Liv Dark theme and had the same issues as you for a while. Slowly but surely it's getting better with the 3rd party apps.
I would just turn it off for the apps that are force closing for now. Make sure you are using subs lite as well.
