A couple of questions guys.

I have an s7 edge stock, non-rooted. I install both the sustratum app as well as the substratum samsung addon.

1) Are there any substratum themes dedicated to s7 edge? (I am mostly after black themes). When I install a theme, in the list of available samsung devices I only see for s8.

2) Do I have to install each layer separately? And then uninstall each layer separately? Is there any way to install/uninstall all selected layers/apps at once? I press compile, it compiles all apps, and then I have to install each apk separately. And then to uninstall them, I have to go to system > apps and find them one by one and uninstall them. Is that normal?

Thanks.

Go to the Manager in Substratum to uninstall overlays and yes, they must be installed and uninstalled separately
[prjkt.io] msoldano27:
Ok so a bit of a problem I could use some help with. I had substratum installed and running and I attempted to do a software update. I realized after doing it I did something wrong when my phone restarted it came up with "system ui has stopped" the only option I had is to hold down the power button the up volume button and the Bixby button and get into setup mode. From there I did a factory wipe and rebooted the phone. After this it restarted like normal and I had to resetup my phone from scratch. I did however use a previous setup used that day to restore. Ok so after that everything was good until my battery went dead and I had to charge it up and when it started again I got the same thing. Now I know substratum wasn't running this time because it wasn't even installed. So I used the same process to wipe reboot and this time I didn't use a previous restore. However I did notice that in my list of apps I had quite a few of the overlays still I stalled for some reason. Com.android.....those ones. I ha e since deleted them but now I'm not sure if I dare turn my phone off again or restart for fear of this happening again. Any suggestions? Maybe try the software update again now that the overlays are for sure gone? Sorry so long I wanted to be sure I got the whole story.

I have a note 8, 7.1.1 and I've tried installing even just one overlay for ebay and it doesnt work. Ive force stopped and rebooted with no change.

[prjkt.io] Orphee:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EZ_RjWlcu6Iqiwsk4Ur6CKdRtifma0P8_hDphXNLDVo/pub?embedded=true

OBS!! Facebook Messenger, from version 147 and on, can't be themed. If you want to keep it dark or black, don't update from version 146.

Facebook and Facebook Messenger overlays: the two apps seem to have implemented some code obfuscation, and now apktool can’t decompile them properly. This led to the Facebook overlay to be removed (it wasn’t a full overlay by any means anyways, and caused many and many complaints about it) and to the Facebook Messenger overlay to be kept on the older working versions (v145 and v146). There’s no solution yet since we can’t look inside of the apps to fix the overlay errors in the newer versions; also many text colors inside of Facebook Messenger were becoming hardcoded in java.

The absolute best way to keep the theme working over time: Every time you update an app to a new version from Play Store, there’s a risk that it don’t match the version we based the theme overlay on. This might cause issues for you. The best way to keep all overlays working over time is to disable automatic updates in Play Store, and update your apps when we update the theme. We update every 4-5 days, so you won’t have to wait long to update everything. Remember to also remove overlays based on older versions of the apps that require a manual selection, and to perform clean installations of the overlays when indicated in the theme changelogs.

[MENTION=5608953]kcheek[/MENTION], are you rooted? I have the snapdragon N8 and this theme installed fine. Issue I am seeing is I get white letters/numbers for the keyboard, phone dialer, etc...

The navigation soft buttons background is white as well.

And lastly the QA (quick action tiles) has a black background but when turning on a QAT it lightes up blue.

The reason I say it's an issue is because I set:

OMS only system accent to RED (default is blue)

OMS only notification accent to black notifications w/o sender name fix (default is white)

Android default I set to system accent (default is app specific colors.

I have rebooted, and tried some other things. Still no red accents. You?
[prjkt.io] kcheek:
No root, running TM BQLA which is 7.1.1. I take the OMS only options to mean only work on OMS? Neither of those work for me.
[prjkt.io] CCJ22:
So, to confirm, the default blue highlights is what us note 8 owners must live with I'm guessing? Cause I tried another color besides red and still my Quick tiles "on" remain blue, phone dialer pad, and keyboard remain white. So that's a bummer.

No you do not need to be Rooted - Stock Unrooted Samsung Nougat will Theme almost everything - Including YouTube - Sometimes you need to Apply the Theme a second time and / or Reboot for the Theme to take effect - Try Swift Black or Swift Minimal ?

---------- Post added at 06:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:10 AM ----------

"Target mismatch... etc" Normally means that you tried to Theme an app version that isn't installed - ie: you have Google version 7.17 installed but you selected Google version 7.18 to Theme - But Substratum can't Theme a version that isn't installed - Check what version of apps you have installed - Not all applications will require you to select the correct version when applying Themes - Just remember that Substratum can't Theme apps that aren't there ?

Hi shaggyskunk,

I tried swift black and swift minimal. But theyre not all that. Could you recommend others great themes that are compatible with youtube, etc and are free?

Also i've seen themes that say they require root to work. What do you say about that since you said i dont need to be rooted?
[prjkt.io] shaggyskunk:
I'm not sure what you're looking for in a Substratum Theme? I use Swift Minimal or Swift Black - Status Bar Icons + Extras - Black Panel - aospUI Black & Vivid Quick Settings and Nav Bar.

I generally don't use any Free Themes if there's a Paid version available - I'm more than happy to support the awesome Development of Substratum Themes.

If you have a Stock Unrooted Samsung device you ABSOLUTELY don't need to be Rooted! In fact some Themes work better without Root or Systemless Root - Any Themes that you see that require Root are NOT designed for Samsung devices ?

Hi shaggyskunk,

I previously used a dark youtube app from Team Blackout. Recently I updated youtube and of course Team Blackou's dark youtube app doesnt apply anymore. Substratum as you know fails to darken youtube for me. Do you think the reason is that it has to do with the dark app from Team Blackout that I used before? Do you think I should factory reset my phone and start all over again?
[prjkt.io] shaggyskunk:
I don't think you have to Factory Reset your phone - I'd start by uninstalling the TBO YouTube app (yes that's the likely reason YouTube isn't Themed properly with Substratum because YouTube is outdated and Themed by TBO) Install the latest version of YouTube from the Play Store and Apply the Swift Black or Swift Minimal Theme - Reboot ?
