Hi, is anyone else having a problem with the updater app? I've been trying to download the black inbox that was posted on 11/24 I keep getting a message saying download unsuccessful. 11/24 appears to be the last time anything was uploaded. Any help greatly appreciated. I'm on version 6.21

I just downloaded all three black versions to test for you. Both LP-MM-N versions worked fine, but the regular black version didn't work for me either.

However, it works from the TBO resources page on their website. The link is the first link in the OP, but here it is for convenience. Hopefully this will assist others who have difficulties with the updater to get their updates straight from the source.

http://teamblackedout.com/BlackedOut/

You can download it there. But there is an issue trying to download from the TBO Updater app, so heads up to the wonderful devs.

Edit: I couldn't find the latest black version easily without sorting, so I snagged you a link. Cheers!

I'm systemless root. No need for gapps. Looks like headache to me, IMA pass.
[Android Themes] marcdw:
Wait, so there are no gapps (Google Apps) on your ROM right now? No Play Store? No Google account? No Nada? So you're running a gappless setup and you get your apps from other sources such as F-Droid or apkmirror?

Heh heh, and uh, why do you think systemless root has anything to do with gapps. No connection whatsoever.

I don't see how the simple act of flashing any of these apps can be considered a headache. Then again, thinking/assuming you don't need gapps because you have systemless root...

Nevermind.

Nope, I hadn't need to install gapps. I installed 24.201.3.clark.retus.end.US retus.

MPHS24.49-18-3 then flashed superuser then another superuser version... I never needed to install gapps unless its preinstalled on stock ROM...
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
If you have playstore and Google play services you have gapps included with the Rom. The Rom dev can get in trouble with including them in his Rom thus the gapps are needed. TouchWiz roms are embedded and closed sources so are included. Aosp roms cannot add them.
[Android Themes] Hitti2:
Ionno. All I know is I never had/needed to add gapps.

[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
Yeah even OP says it's including Google apps. You should be fine using ours. If you use the apk's no problem just uninstall if you don't like. Zips you'll need flashify which works with seemless root...removing those you just install the stock version right over it. Apkmirror has stock versions.

Flashing in recovery of Calendar 5.6.6 N did not work on my Nexus 6 with Nougat.

Got it working as follows:

Installed white Google Calendar.

Settings - Apps - disable Calendar.

Reboot TWRP-recovery.

Mount system.

Flash tbo-zip Clear-calendar 5.6.6 N

Reboot.

Settings - Apps - enable Calendar.

(Clear tbo-calendar working fine)

At last Play store - Google Calendar - 3dots right above - unchecked Auto update.

Hope this will help other tbo-fans.

Will the PixelLauncher7.1.1.zip work on a Google Pixel/Pixel XL running 7.1.1?

Found it the other day but haven't been able to find much info about it. Any info would be greatly appreciated :)

TIA
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
Backup, flash it and see. Not sure you'll have any issues but should be fine.
[Android Themes] unhappybirthday:
TBO's PixelLauncher works just fine with my Pixel on 7.1.1. The zips don't flash to the right location, though, so you may be better off extracting the APK and manually moving it to /system-root/system/priv-app/NexusLauncherPrebuilt with a root file manager. I renamed the existing apk first in case of problems. You will need to set permissions on the new apk.

I recommend having a second launcher installed in case things go south. I'm hearing mixed results with restores from TWRP.

You don't need the wallpaper app.
[Android Themes] mrZoSo:
Hmm, don't see the lib folder in the zip anywhere.

This is the one I got from TBO website:

But no - All of the TBO apps that I've been using are available in the Launcher (Nova) on the 7.1.1 CM Based Rom that I'm running on this device and a couple of others.

The only app I have to build differently than my lp-mm version is calendar. Which app(s) are giving you problems?
[Android Themes] Phone_Guru:
Gmail, play store, maps, YouTube. I was able to flash TBO gmail and then add my changes to the apk and flash that but the same approach doesn't work with play store.

---------- Post added at 10:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 AM ----------

What did you do differently with calendar?

---------- Post added at 10:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 AM ----------

When I flashed play store now I got a notification that I have updates, it still appeared in the launcher but wouldn't start. In settings it said that the file was 412kb.
[Android Themes] Train88:
If you change anything in gmails's values (styles, colors, etc), it will not work. Thus why we do theme ready. I thought maps has been broken forever too, but idk. I don't do anything special to YouTube, but I'm working on the newest update so we'll see.

Just to get Calendar to rebuild, I have to delete android:roundIcon from AndroidManifest, and delete android:shortcutId, android:shortcutShortLabel, and android:shortcutLongLabel from res/xml-v22/launcher_shortcuts.xml. Those deletions don't matter, bc I pull only my edits (minus the launcher_shortcuts.xml) into a stock apk with 7zip.

For the LP-MM and older Calendar build, I also have to delete a meta-data line in AndroidManifest, along with the string and public id that's associated with that line. When I pull my edits into a stock apk for the builds that are non-Nougat, I include my edited launcher_shortcuts.xml.
[Android Themes] Phone_Guru:
Gmail worked fine for me until nougat. If worked for me in nougat too by adding my resources and xmls to the theme ready version. Play store didn't work the same for me. Maps also worked fine for me until nougat. YouTube too. I used to flash the entire recompiled apk into the data folder. Gmail needed the edited manifest to work, the other programs worked with the original.
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
Are you deodexed N or AOSP and are you doing this on your phone live or something? I flashed CM14 and all our apps worked fine. No special anything. If your editing and dropping resources live to get it working then you'll have issues eventually. Flashing to data isn't the best idea either.
[Android Themes] Phone_Guru:
I'm on AOSP for the Galaxy s4. Not sure what you mean by live. As I said, I flash all my themed apps and never had any issues before Nougat including Gmail which nobody else was able to do. I've also been able to flash TBO theme ready gmail and black play store. As I said before I was able to add my changes to the theme ready gmail apk directly and flash it but the same method didn't work for play store.

By the way, what makes an app theme ready? What do you change from the stock apk?
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
No clue then, I can only edit smali and layouts in Gmail or it will not work at all. I don't use signature disable and that's why you could before. tw roms disable it AOSP doesn't. That's most likey your issue.
[Android Themes] Phone_Guru:
Actually, in TW ROMS I had to disable it myself when I had issues with the contacts app. Any idea how to disable signatures in Nougat? I don't know anything about smali coding but following a tutorial from before I found the compare signatures smali and the code from before to change it to. Just want to make sure I don't mess anything up. Could I send you the code so you can tell me if it's ok to change?
[Android Themes] djdarkknight96:
I don't use tw or have ever done the edit

Edit, I know they added v2 signatures so that might be your issue.

WhatsApp 2.16.396 (Play Store version)

NOTICE:

Although I have the app running myself,I am not responsible for any harm done to your device.

If you can't get this inverted app to work, this is very inconvenient, however you will have to use the official Play Store version.

What download do I need to choose???

You can try the signed install of your choice first. Keep in mind that you cannot create online backups with the signed installers. Verifying number also doesn't work.

If the signed install doesn't work, and you have root access, keep on reading. If you don't have root and the signed install doesn't work, I can't help you.

Installation instructions

Signed install

Install original Whatsapp

Verify number

Uninstall Whatsapp

Install BlackedOut version

Open Whatsapp and check if it's still verified

Flashable zip

I would advise users with root access to download the flashable zipfile they want/need. In order to determine which zipfile you need do the following:

Install original Whatsapp

Verify number through app

Install/Open a root explorer

Browse to /data/app

Scroll down to /data/app/com.whatsapp-?

Take notice of the number in the whatsapp folder name

Download the flashable zipfile with the same number as you saw in the Whatsapp folder name on your device

Reboot to recovery and flash the zipfile

Explanation:

Reason for flashing to data partition is simple. I couldn't get whatsapp to work on /system partition anymore. Since I do want the ability to use cloud backup, I tried flashing the apk (with original signature) to /data partition, overwriting the old apk. This worked for me. Just make sure you disable auto-update for Whatsapp, since you won't be able to revert by uninstalling updates.

Found a better way to flash these to system and not data..It will delete the Playstore one replacing with stock keeping data. A little easier since only one zip needed.

I have the exact same issue you did - how did you get it to work?

Edit, ah **** me I think I figure out what's wrong - hope this helps others. I wasn't able to get BlackYoutube11.47.72-LP-MM-N to flash/install/run on my stock 6.0 MM ROM with the Gapps preinstalled (aka system apps). I would flash the blacked-out zip, it would boot, I would get the "Optimizing App" popup indicating it was compiling the file, but then when I tired to open the App it would give me the blackoutedout splash screen then FC. After a LOT of trial and error and reading I figured out the problem.

[MENTION=2126467]djdarkknight96[/MENTION] and other TBO Bros.

Here's your install script from the zip:

ui_print("*************YouTube************");
ui_print("**************ARM***************");
ui_print("*****Themed by TeamBlackOut*****");

ui_print("Applying arm64 removal for arm placement");

[B]delete_recursive("/system/app/YouTube");[/B]

show_progress(0.500000, 0);
[B]run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");[/B]

ui_print("Applying to System");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
unmount("/system");

ui_print("Done Enjoy!");
show_progress(0.100000, 0);

I highlighted the problem. How do you delete a directory in a partition you haven't mounted yet? hehe XD

My Recovery doesn't automount System unless I ask it to, so the install script never deleted the Youtube directory. The script needs to be updated, but in the meantime, anyone else who is having trouble can just mount system manually before flashing the zip.

Cheers.
