I downloaded the CM14 For My Galaxy Grand Prime SM-G530H, But Found a Missing Feature

Hi , I downloaded the CM 14 Android Nougat From the other Thread for My SAMSUNG GALAXY GRAND PRIME SM-G530H. It's running perfectly for me till date.
But I found a feature to be missing. It is the Theme Engine that comes prebundled in the previous versions of CyanogenMod. But in this Build , I found it to be missing. I'm a big of fan of theming the device , But in this version , I can't just do it. I tried Theme Engines of Older versions like CM 12 & CM13 But they didn't work because of the Compatibility.
I have been searching the internet for long to find the version for nougat , but didn't find a thing. I'm sure the feature is included and the developer just forgot to include it while cooking the ROM .
So Can anyone Upload the Extracted Theme engine for Nougat or add the Link which it can be download ?.....Any Help would be appreciated ??

Yes Indeed , Substratum really causes system instability , But I have not experienced any instability till now , But No Promises that I won't experience any Instability . Well , It's the best alternative for Theme Engine , And If you know any better alternatives , Please add it.

Mod icons with CSCAppResource.apk under /sytem/CSC folder?

Hello,
Under MM, it was possible to mod icons with CSCAppResource.apk, see [GUIDE] [Advanced] How to make an IconPack for Samsung Touchwiz [JellyBean].
Since Nougat, I do not find the way to make that it works.
Any idea please?
Thanks
PS : rooted phone of course.
Yep, struggling here too with nougat ...
I guess it has to do with what Samsung made with touchwiz with nougat as they re-branded the launcher as Samsung Experience. Something happened where the new version of the launcher does not pick up the apk/xml we use.
Hello
Thanks ahmed_ais for your feedback.
Hope someone could find the tip to make it back, maybe modded Touchwiz Launcher.
Does someone know if it is possible to add 3rd apps in Samsung Theme?
It seems that it only works with Samsung app ones.
It could be a solution
Found a solution !!
Hey, I just wanted to update you guys about a solution I have found: Substratum
It's a very big and deep theme engine worth checking out. I was able to theme apps icons throughout the whole system (including Touchwiz Experience launcher) without touching any apk so it's as clean as CSCAppResource approach.
Substratum can do a hell lot more of course, thanks to everyone contributed to this project. I have attached some screenshots from my setup using an icon pack found online (take a look at 3rd party apps icons)
Hello,
Can U provide us please more details how to proceed?
Thx

Yea sure ...
First of all one would need to download the substratum theme template from here. We need to pay attention to step 3 from the description of that template as this is what we will be doing. Knowing that any app should have an icon either in one or more of /res/drawable folders or one or more of /res/mipmap folders, we need to put our themed icon in that location in assets folder within the substratum them.
Let's take an example of Facebook app. The launcher icon for that app is located at: com.facebook.katana/res/mipmap-xxxhdpi-v4/icon_katana.png (and perhaps other mipmap folders as well, I didn't check). Therefore, I should include the same hierarchy in my substratum theme like this: MySubstratumTheme/app/src/main/assets/overlays/com.facebook.katana/res/mipmap-xxxhdpi-v4 and there I put the new icon with the same name icon_katana.png (the name is defined in the app's manifest file so it should be exactly the same).
Once done, we build the theme and we push and install it to the phone then proceed with Substratum app.

S8 Oreo Updated Blackframework.apk + BlacknotifactionsOnly.apk download

After upgrading to Oreo/Samsung Experience 9.0 can no longer use those 2 files to forcefully scheme the notifications and other windows black.
Has Android Oreo removed the ability in general to force themes by use of APK? Heard that was a security 'feature' but any developers have a new workaround? Please, as I can never get used to ugly white panels. Please let there be a workaround. Thanks, and comments appreciated.
Bump. Please I need an updated apk that will work with unlocked s8 regular not plus on oreo. It seems there are updated apk for the s8 plus on oreo but it won't work with regular s8.

J510H (j5x3g) screen flickering

Most ROMs here are made for J510FN, but on my J510H I get screen flickering on all of them. Is there any way to fix it?
The only custom ROM I have found that works for my model is back from 2017, but it has its own issues: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/j5xnlte-j5x3g-lineage-os-14-1.3661936/
Maybe there is a way I could modify something for the ROM to work with my device, as I wouldn't expect everyone to make it also work for this device as it is not so popular, being a Ukraine model...
A link or something to a tutorial that is somewhat similar to what I have to do would be very helpful.
Thank you in advance.
