Another Dark Theme with new ColorOS 2.1 Icons Download HERE

Hi,
The best Dark Theme I found for my Find 5: LINK
In this version you can see what you type on pop-up screens, still the pop-up text message isn't that great, if we can change it to green for high contrast, like the rest of theme is, would be great!

Thanks for Your work

Is there a dark theme for ColorOS 3.2? I tried old themes but they are still white in settings

Substratum working?

The app indicates it supports Android 7.0 but i for the life of me can't get it to work. It looks like it compiles and prompts a reboot...but never see any changes or options for enabling after compile. Thoughts?
EDIT: Trying different themes i do see some of the apps being affected...though can't get navbar changes to stick...

Also the icon colors in the status bar font change. They all depend on the original v20 theme

Yep, good point. Guess i just have to wait for Xposed for my Navbar changes.

Layers/Substratum and/or theme creation help

Hi,
I have the XT1625 (G4) rooted and running stock. All the action appears to be in the G4 Plus forums, so I'm posting here. Anyway, I'm not a fan of the MM theme (white bg with the putrid green accent/settings icons). I would love to change to a dark theme/background and change the accent color to something aesthetically pleasing. I've tried using both Layers and Substratum, but have only had varying degrees of success. Using Deity in both Layers & Substratum is a fail. I select red for my accent and/or primary colors but still get a blue theme. Inversion works for the most part but notifications are not readable due to black on black...plus it retains the purtrid green accents. I believe both themes also have problems in Contacts with black on black. I'm currently using Pigment in Layers. It kind of does what I want but not totally.
I have decompiled apps for other phones and been able to change some themes/colors, but am not sure which xml/value(s) to modify for the G4. My priorities are to change the green accent, and then, if possible, invert the white to black. I've looked into creating a Substratum theme but feel over-whelmed by the process atm. If I can do this simply by modding system apps that would be great!
Thanks,

I have learned the putrid green color I do not like is actually "Teal"...silly me.
I attempted to create a Substratum theme following this guide, but it is too complex (for me, at least). However, I have decompiled my framework, settings, and SystemUI and attempted to theme them according to this guide. I have successfully changed the putrid "teal" to a nicer red. Unfortunately, my background is still white although I have edited the apps to have a dark background. For some reason the change is not taking effect. Also, my expanded header color is not changing either.
Any suggestions?

U need to run a ROM compatible for substratum as stock currently is not. Thus the reason why you are not getting what u want

Thanks for the (late) replies everyone. Since I originally posted in December I have already learned the limitations of stock ROMs and Substratum.
I have also moved on to Lineage OMS 14.1 and am able to theme to my heart's content...I'm good to go!

icons not changing after the android 8.0 update

i updated to android 8.0 today and the first thing i noticed after reboot is that some of my icons have white boxes around them. so i thought i would just change the icons to fix it. that did not work some of the icons did change but the white boxes remain. i then thought it was time for a theme change so i went and found a springy like puppy theme to use. that went badly also. None of the icons on the screen are from the new theme. in the screenie provided the green arrow shows the white box and the one icon that changed. the red arrow is the original themes icon set. the blue icon is the original theme icon with the white box around it. i have tried changing wallpapers and icons and themes but the icons do not change anymore.

Try to apply the theme again
And in settings there is an option to turn off icon backgrounds.

that did not work
only the home screen being affected made me thing.i had forgotten that i had installed the pixel 2 launcher in android 7. i went and turned it off and went back to defaults it all is working. so i uninstalled it and re downloaded it and reinstalled and it is working so it looks like the app did not like the upgrade.

looks like the theme hasn't been updated to make it compatible with Oreo.

it isn't the theme that has the issue as i tried 5-6 themes all having the same issue. it was the pixel launcher did not like being installed in android 7 then upgraded to 8. once i uninstalled the launcher and then reinstalled it all is working as expected.

i thought only i had that problem i use apex launcher on note 8 and after i apply theme or icon pack it is not changing

I just use the "vanilla" Samsung launcher, and I have this issue, even with a setting reset. I really don't want to do a factory.

I am having same issue but I have no launcher installed. Just using it theme. What I found is that the setting under
Settings - - > display - - > frame icons
is on and grayed out. Can't figure out how to ungray it

Are you using an other launcher then the original one ? That could be the problem.

It looks like Oreo has brought new feature called Adaptive Icons.
Apparently until developers would have enabled their stuff to support it you still be watching white area surrounding the legacy icons.
This is why I've switched to Nova, but unfortunately loosing numeric notification badges

You need to install TeslaUnread for Nova Launcher

Quick tiles on January 2021 update

Did OP change the way active quick titles look on the Jan update? This looks like garbage and i could of sworn they weren't white before.

I looked through my screenshot since before the January patch and they are black, appear white for me now but I have a dark accent
Setting it to default theme changes it back to black but any custom accent immediately white no matter how bright

If you want to try these, you are more than welcome. These Magisk modules were made to get rid of the pale colors and replace them with more basic colors. And you can pick to either leave the icon colors stock or pick white or black (regardless of light-dark theme). I don't have this phone but these work on my Pixel.
