just noticed the incall dialer still has white background but ill get that sorted soon
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] trickster2369:
Haven't made a call yet to see the in call screen, but the rest send to work well. However, if you choose contacts from the app drawer, the names are rendered in black text, which is kind of hard to read. White text would look better IMO. Thanks for putting in the time to put this together.

I know somebody who is known for blacking out UI's. He's done it for many devices. His name is [MENTION=2249686]hello00[/MENTION] You should ask him
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
Looks good i hope you still are working on it.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Zenoran:
General UI stuff was weird on the theme made for n5 because the text is black. He had a mod to change all text to red but that didn't work well in all situations and kinda funky having red text. Blacking out lollipop is a little more complex.

Having a black wallpaper really helps things though. I highly recommend the Nexus Live wallpaper blacked out. It's simple and looks AMAZING in AMOLED.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] clothednblack:
Definitely harder to get things blacked out in 5.0, but it is possible and coming along, one app at a time. Hopefully soon, we can have them all blacked out.

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] WhiTeRhiNo:
I am still the framework-res.apk is kicking my ass. I cannot get it to recompile because it says invalid value cause of the folder called value-master i believe or something like that cant remember exact name. If i delete folder it will compile but wont boot of course. And when its compiled that folder isnt visible so i cant recompile without folder then put it in from original. So im working on it just need time or help lol
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
Windows? What apktool you using?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] WhiTeRhiNo:
Yea windows 8.1 and im pretty sure its apktool 2.0 rc3 all other apks have been fine dialer,contacts,settings,messenger just that damn frameworks lol
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] chris6278:
You blacked out the settings? Would love to try that out. I hate all the white
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
No kidding, I hate going into Settings especially at night when I'm reading, kills me.

When will Google just accept the fact that they need to implement their own version of TRDS ?! [emoji15]
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] wally3614:
Settings background should all use framework background ... Getting my nexus tomorrow.and will start theming this weekend. Nice change from note 3/4 :)
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] WhiTeRhiNo:
yes but right now it still has black text

Nice to have you coming to the nexus. Your themes on the note 3 were really nice. I blacked out the settings and a few others but with settings and contacts i believe the text color is controlled in framework-res. So until i can figure out how to get framework to recompile im at a stand still with black on black text. When you get your nexus and figure it out ( i know you will lol) if you could help me out a little that would be great
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
From what ive read apktool isnt working with lollipop framework-res.apk yet
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] WhiTeRhiNo:
Yea im using the same apktool they used for the themes on the n5 but apparently it just dont like the n6 framework lol
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
Are you guys using this one??

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/apktool-android-lollipop/

I don't theme myself but just wanted to chip in here to help in any way I can. Can't stand all this white!

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] hello00:
if i had the n6 i would black out the ui...aosp is so easy to theme
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
Do you think its possible to black it out without the phone? I liked your themes in my G3.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] hello00:
of course..i would need some testers
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
Count me in as a tester.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
I'm all in too. Just came from the G3 and remember your themes, would love those on Nexus.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] themoneyman:
I'm a fearless tested also. Would love to help. I have a hereditary eye condition that makes me extremely light sensitive and the white kills me.

Found this rom. Googled validus rom for nexus 6 an it took me to the creators google+ page an the link is there.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] remag6383:

You'll have to look up Ground Zero Roms on g+ and join

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] chris6278:
I just installed the rom an while i really like all the dark everything is smaller like icons, widgets ect. Anyway to make it go back to its normal size?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Tiffany84:
Is there any way someone could please upload the build.prop from the Nexus 6 for me?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] cky2000:
Thanks for the info. :D
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] chris6278:
Had to change the lcd density from 460 back to 560 on Validus rom now i really like it
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] remag6383:
:good: sorry, meant to tell you that earlier. I usually have mine set around 493
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] chris6278:
Its cool man i figured it out. Everything was way too small the way it was. Im probably gonna head back to Pure rom until this rom gets some of the ui bugs fixed but definitely like where its going
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] cky2000:
This is from the factory image 5.0 (LRX21O).

i've been running frankened from Syko Pompos site https://plus.google.com/u/0/+SykoPompos/posts it's been flawless on my end. but i had to try the other. I'm actually back on frankened anyways.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] brizey:
Llol, I was just coming in here to talk about the dpi on Validus. I think that is the source of some of the UI bugs. The scrolling in the settings is UNREAL. My kids have iPad mini retinas...this scrolls more smoothly.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] evolving:
Hope to see you do a little something over here.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Tiffany84:
I would love to if I could get my hands on the device someday. I ended up getting the Note 4 due to the fiasco of trying to get the Nexus 6. Thinking about trying to sell the Note 4 to get it as I cannot afford both of them. Running an alpha build of cm-12 right now just to get a taste of stock lollipop but still not like owning a Nexus.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] dubbactrumpetmsu:
So nice. Thanks for pointing this one out to me - he's keeping the betas off of XDA for now, but I appreciate the tip - I'm really enjoying this rom....can't wait for some big updates.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
Hmmm.... Don't let the other Note 4 owners know your opinion on that, you'll get flamed and belittled [emoji6]
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
The rom is pretty good so far but the only thing thats dark is the settings..Everything else is white though
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
Hop over to Team Blackout thread and get some more blacked out goodness.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2283828

DJ has a beta Play Store in there a few pages back that works and looks great on Lollipop.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
How is the ROM compared to others? I'm running Rastapop currently, but I might flash Validus tonight.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
I was on rasta before this one. l would say they are pretty close to being the same actually.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
I'll give it a try then, is the black theming well done?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
the only thing i really see themed is the settings

however it does have some nice mods added to it. nothing major and seems very snappy
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
Anything different from Rastapop?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] dubbactrumpetmsu:
Yep, that's about it. But I really like the settings theming - I really hope all of them do that after a while. Much prefer the dark theme, and he does it in the color matching the QS pulldown too, instead of black, which I like.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
it has a performace tab under settings to control cpu

it has center clock mod and double tap staus bar to turn off screen and maybe a couple things here and there.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
You had me at double tap status bar lol, I miss that from my G3. I use my G3 sometimes as a wifi tablet at home and when I pick up my Nexus I miss that feature.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
I think we will get some themes here soon i would imagine.

what i cant figure out is Google Dialer and Google contacts should be the same for all devices like Gmail etc but I've tried using themed googler dialer that are from Nexus 5 with no luck.

---------- Post added at 10:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 AM ----------

yeah im liking that simple mod also...it doesnt have tap to wake but thats okay cause it always seemed to interfere with my ambient display
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] dubbactrumpetmsu:
It's not built in but I just installed the APK that enables it and it works fine. What issues were you having with Ambient Display?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
I just flashed the ROM, and its by far my favorite ROM so far.

Edit does google camera crash for you when you try HDR+?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] skw5115:
HDR+ crashes the camera for me also. Did anyone else try to restore from a backup and find that mobile data doesn't work any more. Only rom it's working in for me now is Validus. APNs are correct and everything. Weird
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
You might need to flash back to stock and start over. I have a reoccurring problem where I lose my soft keys no matter what after flashing ROMs. I haven't found out what causes this yet but the only way I have found to fix it is to wipe everything and restore my phone using the factory images and then reflash twrp and my ROM.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
Open build. prop with rootexplorer and search for

ro.product.manufacturer=Moto

Change to

ro.product.manufacturer=motorola

Save and reboot..this will fix HDR

You can also change DPI back to 560 in there also.

As far as data not working always make sure to flash the SuperSU zip for root after each ROM. Im pretty sure this ROM is the only one with working built in root app.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
I changed my DPI already, I'm going to try that fix and report back.

---------- Post added at 09:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:24 PM ----------

Is it case sensitive because it didn't work.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
Yes make sure exactly like mine
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
Yeah it was case sensitive, I suspected it might be. It works now
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] skw5115:
Thanks, that worked for HDR+ however mobile data still doesn't work for me on t-mobile. Not sure what the issue is. Only works on this ROM now.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
Did you try a factory reset? Also have you checked the service menu for the LTE settings?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] skw5115:
Yeah I checked the lte settings and everything looks fine. Thinking I'm going to start completely from scratch, and flash factory images
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
I've unfortunately had to do that a few times now. Im on ATT and I haven't tried s restore yet, but if I do I'll let you know if my LTE works.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] skw5115:
Yeah same I've done it about 5 times. That's what happens when you're an early adopter on the development scene lol. But definitely let me know. Hopefully it works for you so you don't have to go through this
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
I hope so, but I don't mind that's why I bought a Nexus. Have your soft keys and nav bar even disappeared even after a restore in twrp?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] skw5115:
Yeah that's normally when I try restoring the system and not wiping the data. Usually when one ROM is AOSP and the other is based off of Google image
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
That makes sense, even after I wipe cache it doesn't come back. The only tried and true way is to flash factory images. I'm glad its so easy to flash everything on a Nexus.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] skw5115:
Yep when all else fails it always bails me out. It's just annoying when you have to restore your SD card lol
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
Yeah I know, is there a good way to back up only the internal storage and flash it back with fastboot?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] skw5115:
Not that I know of. I normally just move all data to my laptop then move it back. I actually got away without having to do that this time. Just flashed each of the stock images separately except for the userdata one. Solved my data issues. If you just wipe your data in TWRP (not the internal storage) then you'll be OK if you flash another ROM. You could even just restore the data from a previous backup.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
I'll give that a try next time thanks site the help!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] skw5115:
Sure no problem!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
Anyone else in here running Validus try using App Ops yet?

Mine looks like this for Chrome and others..

Prettttttyyy Trippppy Mmmannnn..
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Krunk83:
Looks normal.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
Mine looks the same
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] wally3614:
I'll start theming this afternoon, see what's involved and get a vrtheme flashable set up
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] suzook:
That would be awesome...what the n6 is missing is a dark theme...this white blows!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
Delete
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] wally3614:
Been waiting on apktool haven't tried to install it to work on L yet so hopefully it works
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
There will be an update for the Validus ROM today or tomorrow.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] remag6383:
yep

back on Validus. I like this rom best of all. been smooth on my end
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] crashercarlton:
if only everyone else had the same answer ;P
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
Same here, it's smooth with a bug or two but better than other ROMs so far.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
The updated Validus ROM is up on his google + page. It has some tweaks and a new kernel, but overall worth the install for dark themes
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
Latest Validus is sick huh??

In running it with Sensei Kernel and it's so smooth, SaberMod ROM and Kernel is the way to go.

By the way keep your eye on Sensei Kernel.. There are some new Governors that should be in the next release if testing goes well.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
Sensei and Saber were giving me issues with frequencies not sticking so I switched back to lean kernel for now.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
Hmmm with everything turned off except Intelliplug I have no issues with frequencies sticking, sorry to hear that though.

There's been some who have random issues and some of us who have next to none. I'm sure it'll get ironed out with time. Either way... How about Validus?! Great ROM
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
I like the ROM a lot, it works great with no issues so far. SaberMod kernel was fine but it kept setting my min freq to 1.7ghz no matter what I did. I didn't touch anything and it would sit at 1.7ghz so I tried yo turn it down to 300mhz but it would switch right back and then reboot.

Overall I'm very happy with Validus ROM and lean kernel everything works great right now.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
Good deal man happy to hear that. What app were you using for the kernel tweaks? I use Trickster and had that happen to me as well. I had to toggle Intelliplug a couple times and it corrected itself. I turn everything else off like MPDecision and FSync etc. Either way...
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] clothednblack:
Several apps have been updated for LP, go get some dark apps. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2490100

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
I use trickster as well. Im not sure what was causing the issue but I'm happy as long as one of the kernels works. Lean is the only one so far that doesn't reboot when you change governor's besides elemental.

Validus ROM also has its own CPU tweaker but it has some bugs.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
Yea.. Modding these phones isn't as cut and dry as people think. There was one person who just kept bootlooping and there were a few of us who had no issues at all. Makes you wonder what little differences behind the scenes could be causing so much havoc for some but not others.

At least we have a phone that has great options. Go with what works. I'm scared to soak anything else though because Validus and Sensei are running the best so far.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
I've had my fair share of boot loops in the past couple of years. Without failure we will never learn what success is.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] chris6278:
Keep getting an authentication error when i flash the dark playstore
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] clothednblack:
If you have tibu, open it, go to playstore and uninstall it, boot to recovery and flash the darkhorse version, you can do a cache wipe too, reboot and all should be good.

I'm not responsible blah blah blah. This is what I had to do to make it install and it works perfectly.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] clothednblack:
Looks awesome!
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mahapederdon:
Do you know if validus will ever make it to xda.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
Not sure really. The Dev said on Google+ that he's keeping it on there for the time being, he has a lot going on to also manage a ROM thread. For now though the Google+ page will certainly work just the same.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mahapederdon:
I looked on his page but am not familiar with the google+ layout I guess. Can you post a link. Thanks man.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
yeah me too..i gave up
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Mistertac:
I think it was also linked a few pages back but here try this..

You'll have to be following them first in order to get there I believe. In not a huge Google+ user myself, only for these types of things do I ever use it.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] chris6278:
Ive tried the validus rom and its nice but still has a few ui bugs like white txt on a white background that kind of things but when he fixes that ill definitely use it again. Still wanna get that dark playstore to work if anyone knows how to get it working
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] rignfool:
Try team blackouts... It worked fine for me...
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
ive tried them all and when i just get errors about play services error etc etc
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] micmars:
What particular TBO apps are you installing that gives you those errors?

I'm using all of them, on this device and the rom referenced in this thread. I can assist if you'd like.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] clothednblack:
After flashing the dark app, if you get that error, open system/apps/playstore and clear the cache and data, force stop the app then reopen the store again. Does that work for you or did you try that already?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] chris6278:
Ive tried everything and i cant get them to work
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] clothednblack:
That's strange, I don't know what else to suggest.

I'm running slim

Uncrypted

Unlocked

Obviously rooted

Not sure what your setup is but sounds like something in conflicting
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
I've tried everything and no go...Wiping data blah blah and still no go..

ill try a fresh install maybe later..at work right now
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
I flashed that play store and it was a bad idea. My play services crashed (no gapps would work) so I tried to restore my phone via TWRP and play services disappeared. I then tried a fresh ROM and gapps flash, still no play services even after I did a manual install of it.

I ended up flashing the factory images, I'm not using any of those dark apps for now because I still don't know why it was crashing.

Everything is fine now but it was a long day.... Has anyone else had issues with the Play Store V5.1.11?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] kenny8504:
What gapps are u guys using with validus
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] micmars:
Euroskank
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] kenny8504:
Good to see u over here from the note man
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] micmars:
No, but that's because I've had the luck of testing them.

Please know that these are all in testing and rampup mode.

Mine works fine...see below,
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] Pilz:
I don't mind having my phone crash, but I want to keep it a little more stable for bow because I have exams next week.

I enjoy testing apps, I just didn't expect play services to crash because everything else worked just fine.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] clothednblack:
Darkhorse works fine here
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] micmars:
It shouldn't, and thousands have downloaded and installed these on lollipop without issue.

Let me be clear...I didn't ask you to use them or test them, I merely stated that I've done both, as have many others, and they are having zero issues. But this is a very new operating system, and some may have problems.

I have not.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] MrDSL:
For those of you who don't have issues flashing and using the dark gapps could you link us the gapps you're using as a base?

TIA
