Yeah thanks, i was talking about the dark theme actually. I was curious if the theme engine is in Lineage 14.1

I already use F. Lux so no probs there
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] lafester:
Hopefully people will continue to use this thread for general discussion now that the dev thread is active again.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jawz101:
https://review.lineageos.org/#/q/topic:cm14-themes

This is as much as I can see people doing on porting the theme engine. If you click on some of the commits you can see developers talking about the commits some to get an idea of what the chatter is. It's like a service, framework, apps, sdk... all sorts of crap.

If commits were status of merged it would mean they are doing stuff but it looks like it's still a bunch of work in progress stuff someone is thinking about.

I don't even know if it was in cyanogenmod 14.1 before they moved to LineageOS. I'm guessing not since it's a big thing and ui elements changed in Nougat and all that. But one thing I've noticed with the theme engine is when they start working on it we start getting system ui crashes.

That's the hope. It's nice to offload a little of that stuff over here. We had 2 threads on the Nexus 5 ROM for CyanogenMod and I just subscribed to both. Keeps some of the random stuff out of the main thread.

Unjust just announced FP is fixed!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] MacLaughlin:
Does someone know if substratum is working on los?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jawz101:
Since they haven't yet moved in the CyanogenMod theme engine, I imagine there's a better chance of it working right now than if they had.

You could probably search in any phone's LineageOS thread and see if someone has it working or just make a backup in TWRP and try it. Then restore if the ui is borked.

Edit

https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-3/development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-1-oneplus-3-t3496850/page284

Take a look there. It looks like the theme has to work with N but it's hit and miss. You'll probably get at least system ui crashes or soft reboots trying to find a theme ready for the Nougat menu changes.

I understand that the fingerprint scanner is not yet working but there's no mention either way about Daydream - is Lineage fully working with Daydream headsets?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] xtermmin:
Not sure about "fully", but people have reported in the release topic that they were able to use Daydream after setting the VR settings to "Reduce Flicker" instead of "Reduce Blur".
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Kleva94:
After you set it to "reduce flicker" it works fantastic. Only problem is, it can get really hot after long usage.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jawz101:
Looks like that's a known issue according to unjustified dev. I don't know if you saw that pastebin issue list he posted. Says thermal throttling problems in VR mode or something like that.

Question: what is the difference between a offical LOS rom or an unofficial build?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] lafester:
Only difference I know of is once official they will start the nightly builds. Of course that was cm, not lineage but should be the same.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] spacemanvt:
Still confused, who is developing these nightly builds for axon 7? Unjustified Dev or some team at LOS?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] iNaruX:
https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/159773/3/CONTRIBUTORS.mkdn
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] lafester:
Just a build bot adds in the upstream changes. Ud and the team will still work on device specific fixes like now. I don't usually flash nightlies unless the maintainer mentions a specific reason to.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] spacemanvt:
Ah gotcha, thats good news then. I guess once the Axon 7 ROM goes official then should be easier to get updates,etc. in the future! Looks like i am flashing real soon. :good::good::good:
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] lafester:
It's almost perfect now. So much better then stock except slight speaker crackle at loud volume. Ud seems to be on a roll so I bet that is fixed soon as well.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] spacemanvt:
Is the audio decent enough now to listen to podcasts and music on the speakers?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Controllerboy:
Yes. Just let it sit around 80% or so, max volume shows distortion (even that is way less than CM13 ROM). If you want to fix it, you can follow the guide posted here.

The sound via speakers is lower quality and less loud than in stock OS, but other than that, things are fine.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] nupi:
FWIW, lineage will have weekly builds.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] hanswurst61901:
The new build gives me a force close every time I try to register a fingerprint.

Unjustified Dev mentioned that, but only on the first try?

I am on A 2017, if it matters.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] borijess:
Did you clean flash or dirty flash. He did mention do not clean flash.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] HansWursT619:
I only wiped cache and dalvik.

Edit :

It worked...

I had to use the fingerprint sensor to start instead of taping "next".
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] nupi:
Does anyone else see occasional brief pop ups of an empty Google Drive screen?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] HansWursT619:
Something else I just noticed. Searching for "mono audio" gives you the option to combine both channels. For now this could be useful as we are missing out on the right channel otherwise.

But I suspect this option affects headphones and BT speakers as well?

https://plus.google.com/communities/102261717366580091389

I'd imagine the best place to keep informed on LineageOS support is in this Google+ community. Basically, bugs with Substratum are not device specific or LineageOS specific unless they say 7.1.1 is officially supported. Menus changed. You'll get reboots. I'd just keep up with the Substratum community to see if people make a theme that works on 7.1.1... at least according to them... and then wonder if it works on LOS. Reading this thread wouldn't be as helpful as that community at the moment, IMHO.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] `SBR`:
Thx for the heads up.. Will keep an eye on it...

So anyone has reboot, you can try this theme as well

I tested with Default Dark theme, Power button works
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] DrakenFX:
yeah, it seems 7.1.1 with Jan patches causes reboots....

[MENTION=1813256]jawz101[/MENTION] , if you don't mind adding which Themes works and using SUBSTRATUM in OP, that'll be awesome....so anyone who comes here can try them out or try other theme and report back here.:good: and to keep it clear, let report if they have done Clean or Dirty flash :D
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jawz101:
Sure thing but it's hard to follow which ones everyone has said work. If someone wants to make a Google Docs spreadsheet people can contribute to, I could add a link to that.

BTW, I cleaned flashed and I haven't ran into the stuff Unjustified mentioned but I can't recall what he said was a problem with clean flashing. I'm not using Substratum myself, though. Reboots are annoying to work through :P
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] DrakenFX:
ok, by the way, anyone using Lineage and want to Downgrade to MM using G variant , you can so.....just download whatever version you want to jump into and flash using TWRP or Stock Recovery WITHOUT MODDING THE FILE.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Takenover83:
I also have daydream working on my Axon 7. But there is a downside. You have to change "reduce blur" to"reduce flicker" in the Display VR settings. As you might guess, by doing this you will get quiet a bit of blur when moving your head around. Which does effect the experience. I am hoping this is fixed soon in the ROM. I'm sure it won't be a problem on official.

First download and install this

Then install this

You then go to the first app, and select the downloaded theme and select the apps you want the black theme on and press the pink button and select apply iverlayer

You can check here (which is a good start). But with me giving you this information let me warn you PLEASE RESEARCH AND COMB THROUGH THESE FORUMS and understand that there's a good chance you can brick your system.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jawz101:
Dolby ATMOS is patented sound processing. ZTE couldn't give it away, LineageOS couldn't distribute it. People have pulled and packaged it in that ARISE sound mod but I couldn't say if it's properly implemented.

On another note,

Can anyone explain what is going on with all the twrp issues? First time I flashed I was fine, then later on I rebooted and got ext4 error so I simply flashed twrp 3.0.4 and the problem went away. Then today I had issues flashing back from aokp to lineage... Again, no access to internal data. After rebooting recovery a few times suddenly I had access again.

Not really trying to complain, just explaining what my experience has been so far with N builds.

APNs are all in there and are appear correct from what i'm googling. Has anyone had any issues similar or a single clue as to what could be causing it. Followed steps correctly as far as I know. Flashed the boot/radio fix, wiped, flashed rom, gapps, wiped cache/dalvik, and rebooted. First boot takes a really long time, refuses to get service. Reboot, still no service. Toggle APNs, confirm settings, save, toggle airplane mode. Nada. It's rather annoying.

Did you flash the first or second build (fingerprint fix)? You should flash the first, oldest version first and then flash the second version. Also, did you install the bootstack first? You need the new bootstack in order to make Nougat work.

I'm on official nougat beta firmware and want to install lineos.

Or is there a risk to lose the edl mode ?

Thank you for your answer!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] lafester:
Why are you modifying boot stack?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] dbloms:
As far as I read, during unlock process there will be installed a modified fastboot image (with oem unlock support). Isn't fastboot a part of the bootstack ?

I want to be sure to have the possibility to flash the recovery image and the whole firmware, if something goes wrong.

Is the edl stuff part of the rom, so I can't destroy it, or will it be replaced with the modied fastboot ?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] lafester:
If you read the lineage thread someone on the N preview unlocked without using modified bootstack. Simply go into fastboot and unlock. Regardless, edl I believe is lower level and cannot be modified by us as far as I know. It should not be affected by the bootstacks posted here.
