question: are navbar themes considered a "system" theme and need to be avoided? so far, i've tested several themes on the 5-7 apps i prefer to have dark themes (hangouts, google dialer & contacts, google now and youTube) and they appear to be working without issue so far. [MENTION=3605033]nicholaschum[/MENTION] and team, very grateful for your work, efforts and willingness to bring the tool/app to Samsung devices.

Nav bars definitely work. But when you click on them, there's a momentary frame of the stock home button due to themers not theming samsung resources.

You can always start theming too!
[prjkt.io] twinsfan14:
Got it running on my at&t S8+, working great! Swift Dark is a great theme. As long as you follow the directions in the first post, it should work perfectly! No crashes/FCs to report here! Fantastic work to everybody who put the time into this.
[prjkt.io] Danhack000:
I've tried a few navbar themes and this one it's just sleek. Substratum works pretty well, although some themes can't be installed. Props to Dev for such accomplishment ??
[prjkt.io] nicholaschum:
Definitely can start theming on your own too! It's a really fun project :)

Are there any certain steps to make when updating the app ?

As it is in development and will be constantly updated, what's the right way ?

Should I disable or uninstall overlays? Or the app itself before updating ?
[prjkt.io] drew_grant:
Everything seems to work great. However, I installed a different nav bar, but I wanted to revert back to stock buttons. Can anyone tell me how to do that? Thanks.

ow to recover if the above doesn't work? (Credits to Evozi)

You will have to boot up in Safe Mode (comes default on every device)

Turn on screen and press power button. It will show "Shutdown", "Restart", "Emergency Mode"

Turn on "Emergency Mode", keep spam the checkbox so you can tick the checkbox to proceed the agreement. (phone is super lagging)

While you are in emergency mode, you have very limited access.

Open any system app and go to recent task list.

Long press the app task, press the info icon and app detail page will appear

.

Hit the back button and it will show your whole app list.

Find your overlay and remove all its storage and phone permissions.

Deactivate Emergency Mode and now you are back to TouchWiz.

Uninstall the overlay app.

please explain me how do i do the 2 steps , recent tasks list (2 squares left button s7 edge right?) doesnt get me anything ofther than the open apps, the back button likewise doesnt do anything) so the info option doesnt come up.

installed substratum set theme including system overlay , so system ui keeps crashing , had the whole black screen ,managed to get to emergency mode but need to figure this, please guide

[prjkt.io] Venom0642:
Yes they work on S8, S8 Plus i have tried them out, but i only like Swift Black!
[prjkt.io] presidential10:
So I have the official $2 Samsung enabled add-on from the Play Store. In settings, there's a tickbox that when ticked allows for unsupported or 'dangerous' elements to be themed at risk of a bootloop. I've never ticked that just to be on the safe side.

Today when I opened Substratum however, those 'dangerous' elements show up as themeable despite not having ticked the box. Things like System UI, Accents, etc.

Can I theme those over now with something like BlackStock or SwiftBlack officially? Or will I still bootloop?
[prjkt.io] Shawn_007:
Maybe there was a update.
[prjkt.io] dynospectrum:
BlackStock dev has started supporting Samsung Substratum. So with BlackStock, feel free to experiment. Its a little buggy at the time of writing but dev says fixes coming soon.

In SwiftBlack, you can only see those options if Allow Dangerous Overlays in checked.
[prjkt.io] Bobthahog:
If someone installs the black stock theme and then themes the system UI would you please post some screenshots to let us see what it looks like?

Swift Black Update, Major Changes!

Venom0642:

Major Changes:

• Marshmallow users: Marshmallow support is dropped to keep up with substratum and template updates. We apologize about this and hope you had a good ride with the theme!

• Samsung users: There's a Samsung S8 variant to be selected now if you use that device, for every other Samsung user: you can try to apply some resources but the only one on which the variant is expected to work for now is rigorously only the S8. Other devices are NOT tested so make sure you know how to recover from any issue you encounter. It is YOUR responsibility if you go down the route of trying!

More on this matter - since we have enabled Samsung support, you should now see System overlays available, so please unselect Android System, SystemUI, Settings and any other system app that errors if you're using the 7.0 variant on a Samsung device, or you may have issues!

• OxygenOS users: you now have to pick your system from the SystemUI overlay to tint the Quick Tiles background. This gives an way bigger chance that you can apply the overlay without that part if you're on a new beta and not boot into a black screen if the new beta is not supported by the theme yet! It is still highly advised to remove all overlays in between of OOS updates due to that reason as well as many others. Think of this as a safety measure together with a way to know which OOS version is surely supported by the theme at a given time.
[prjkt.io] robbiekhan:
The S8 variant, does the warning about unselecting system UI etc apply to S8 users as well or is that just for other Samsung users?
[prjkt.io] rey_1178:
I've tried everything suggested and don't know if I should give up. This is a tab s3 on 7.0

The themes known to be ok all give me the same question and error for each overlay.

View attachment 4203756View attachment 4203757
[prjkt.io] CStadler:
Remove the previous theme you installed (main reason for that error)
[prjkt.io] rey_1178:
Tried this too and still have the same issue. I have experience with substratum on other devices but this is road block I can't get over. At least I've contributed some money to the devs. Wish I could enjoy it.
[prjkt.io] eazykiell:

[prjkt.io] dagod80:
I have the same question. Is it ok to select system ui etc on the s8+?
[prjkt.io] robbiekhan:
I selected it anyway and rebooted, doesn't seem to make any difference.

I am using the Material_Black system theme though, so everything is already blacker when combined with Swift Black Substratum theme. My phone's UX now looks so so good.
[prjkt.io] dagod80:
So you selected everything and no problems?
[prjkt.io] robbiekhan:
Yes although it won't let you apply the overlay for Android System because it says it already exists. I guess it's because the Samsung Theme Store theme I am using replaces that which is why.

So in effect, I can only apply SystemUI, Settings is not applied because the system theme already makes it black.

You shouldn't be installing substatum overlays for notifications or systemui, yet.

Hi,

I have been theming a lot of stuff on stock oxygen os using substratum (checkout ozone for op3 and op5 on XDA). Since I don't own an S8, it would be really nice if someone could upload the systemui.apk. I'd like to do some small mods for it via substratum.

I found an easy solution to deactivate substratum themes on touchwiz, just install any themes from samsung theme store and your themed apps will back to default theme. ?
[prjkt.io] Teloah:
I don't know if I should tell you this, but I got it working. I didn't realize I needed to install the overlay in Substratum... As you can understand I feel like an idiot :silly: I installed a navbar earlier and then I just needed to install the APK to get it working.

Sorry for taking up your time. And thanks for amazing work.

Hi, i'm using substratum with my s8 since 2 weeks now,

i have a question : what i have to do when an app is getting an update ? did i need to go to substratum again in order to apply again the theme to all of apps or can i just go to substratum and apply the theme only for the apps updated ?
[prjkt.io] bx10r:
When you open sub itll say which app needs an update...apply and reboot or forcestop
[prjkt.io] KillerWays:
I was talking about the apps that getting an update from play store...

And why facebook and messenger are working just one time with the theme ? Everytime i have to go to substratum app and apply theme before using app or the theme disappear...

[prjkt.io] poompk:
Hi everyone. I am only hoping to change my navbar background color to black. Currently using Navbar Apps to make it black but it flickers back to the default Samsung white color a lot (the June update removed black as an option in stock Samsung UX) and I'm hoping this can make it black more persistently? Is there a safe way of doing this yet? I know navbar is part systemUI and that is not yet fully supported.

Also, would using Substratum and its themes interfere with normal OTA updates? Do I need to do anything such as disabling themes before installing an OTA update or is it completely seamless?

Thank you very much in advance.

Is there any difference in compatibility with S8 and S7? I can see either "S8" or "Nougat 7.0+" as requirements everywhere, but there's no clear statement. I'm on stock unrooted S7 edge G935FXXS1DQF2.

I am using DarkStock theme and it seems to work (including SystemUI), but I am not sure if I can try anything else. I've had to factory reset due to applying SystemUI from 'ModernUI Theme' which caused force closures of entire UI and no way to uninstall (and I had my laptop unauthorised for ADB...).
