Stock framework

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673791459329062379
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
So the stock is 80? I decompiled the apk and changed to 30 and added to your zip, it changed but it wouldnt let me do anything else. tried 38 and still didnt get bigger.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Stock navbar size is 48 dip (96dip carmode)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
Thought so I just seen the name of the zip you sent me. Question tho would substratum cause this? I have it set for 38 dip right now.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
I've seen it on 8.1 but not on 8.0 (as far as tiny navbar icons). On 8.1, any deviation caused the navbar icons to shrink.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
Hmm wonder why mine did. But putting the apk from stuck worked great thanks
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] jrbxx7:
Flashing the nov zip in twrp caused bootloop. Flashing the restore zip fixed it. Thanks
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
There isn't a working rom to get binaries from but I have an aroma for someone to try if they are adventurous. It works with the pixel but mods are for pixel 2 XL. Fllash the base at the very bottom first

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673791459329062613
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
I'll give her a try later lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
We're you stock November update?

Sir, could you try the adb method to see if twrp is the problem?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] jrbxx7:
Stock with flash kernel. However i do have themes applied to the nav bar. Maybe thats the problem. I can test with adb when i get home.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Those themes might do it. With a navigation bar dimensions of 0.0 dip navigation bar must be invisible.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
Sorry if I missed it, but is there a 0.0 dip November version with a center clock? I'm finally getting around to upgrading to the November patch and would like to flash the November NavBar gone right away.

Also, since I'm on the September patch, how can I revert back to stock nav bar (no mods) so I can flash the November update without ending up in a bootloop?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
Dirty flash Sept first then dirty flash OTA should be good to go. Also check out [MENTION=5346465]Tulsadiver[/MENTION] for that mod. I think that's his name. On phone and didn't look. Lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
:laugh: This is Tulsadiver's thread. That's why I posted here. You're cracking me up tonight. You're also successfully making me think I've been taking crazy pills.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
So many threads and so little time. I'm lost. It's up a few pages then lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] galaxys:
If you were on November, we wouldn't be having this conversation!:p:o:eek:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
Your name looks familiar. You ever have a s4 or gnex?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
I had a gnex but not an S4 (that I can remember). My phone progression is in my signature (though, you probably can't see it on the phone). I listed it below.

I'm sure I've seen you around these forums somewhere previously.

Galaxy S8 // Pixel XL // OnePlus 3 // Nexus 6P // Nexus 5X // Nexus 6 // Nexus 5 // Nexus 4 // Galaxy Nexus // Nexus One
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
Yeah I thought so lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
Hey guys, does flashing this mod trip Safety Net? Seems like there were a lot of tweaks that needed to be made to the system partition...

Also, is there a Substratum theme that can get rid of the navbar, like set it to 0 pixels..? It seems that's been alluded to...
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
No, this should not trip safety net
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Center clock was special order but I can make you one if you like.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
Actually, I think I'm going to jump straight tot he 8.1 beta. A 0.0 dp version of the 8.1 version with a center clock would be greatly appreciated! :highfive:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] smartymcfly:
I sort of seen there was an option in o e of your mods for pxl to have option for 4 qs tiles per row... Is that something you can do on p2xl? For November 8.0
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Try this. If you don't have TWRP you will need to use the adb method.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
Thanks! I'm fairly certain TWRP Beta 2 is working with 8.1 now. Going to give it all a try right now.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
I'm trying to get a package of mods going and that one is included.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
Crap, the 8.1 factory image won't work. It keeps prompting me for my pin due to factory reset even though I didn't use a pin previously. Apparently this is a known issue with the 8.1 beta. So I'm flashing the November 8.0 version instead.

Sorry to bug you about it but would you mind throwing together a0.0 dp center clock version for the November patch?

Thanks so much!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
You can't put the pin in?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
I tried the only pin I would have used and it jsut says it's invalid. I tried a couple others too. No dice. I started reading up on it and apparently this is a known issue for some...

https://androidcommunity.com/factor...android-8-1-dev-preview-shows-a-bug-20171106/

https://wccftech.com/google-android-8-1-factory-reset/

So I just flashed the November image and it fixed it. I'll just stick with 8.0 for now.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
Maybe before updating to 8.1 use the factory reset in Android. Also did you format userdata?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
I just used the flash.all script to handle the job. But that's a good idea. I'll try doing a factory reset on the November patch and then flash 8.1 to see what happens.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
It could be that new encryption chip, the nap,? I think that's it lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
:laugh: Indeed! Just set a new 4 digit pin then performed a factory reset (requiring that same pin). Now I'll flash 8.1 and see what happens.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
Shoot nxp lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
That did it. I'm in!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
Hey I was right lol. Good to know hahaha
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
You were! You deserve to drink exactly 3 beers tonight. No more, no less. :highfive:

Also, just wanted to mention that I successfully got Magisk installed by sideloading the 14.4.3.zip with TWRP. I also got the 8.1 nav bar gone mod installed and everything is working perfectly.

the only issue I noticed is that it didn't center the clock. It's still on the right. But that's a very minimal issue, in my opinion.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] bryantjopplin:
Haha crazy just popped the first one open lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Minimal, that was the whole point, lol! I modded the wrong statusbar.xml. Had too many open, going too fast. Try this one.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
Hm, just flashed it and now I have 2 clocks. One in the center and one on the right. Any ideas?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
You didn't want two clocks? Oh, didn't mean you wanted an additional clock, just a center clock....

Sorry, just kidding. it's been a long day. Last call, for alcohol.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
:laugh: This is fun. Just drinking beer, flashing away...

---------- Post added at 06:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:00 PM ----------

Hm... still 2 clocks. Also, now when I'm on the lock screen there is a second status bar overlapping the original status bar. So there are 2 of everything in the status bar.

Do you have a "return to stock" zip that I could flash to start from scratch or flash when I want to take an OTA update?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
I don't know about receiving updates, I always flash mine. I can get a stock flash for you.

I started from scratch if you want to try another one.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
Giving this a try now. But yeah, a "back to stock" zip file would be great, if you can do that. Then I can flash it before any OTA and not have to worry about it.

Thanks again!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Here is stock, full APK flash. Modded apks are different but it should be fine to flash stock ones.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673791459329063069
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
Thanks! How does it work? Do I just install the APK like any other APK while booted into the OS?

Or do I just sideload the zip file like I do the Nav Bar gone mod?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Just like the navbar gone mod.

Edit: Is there something wrong with the TWRP install button to where you have to sideload zips instead?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
Thanks! Download links are being SUUUUPER slow right now. So I'm going to call it a night on the flash-a-thon. I'll get the most recent 8.1 nav bar gone center clock mod installed in the morning.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
No two ways about it, you are going to need one on the left too...
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] hatdrc:
Could any of this be accomplished with Substratum?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
I posted some mods on the op for Nov 8.0. I believe all you would need to do is flash the base (Pixel2navbargoneLight). It comes with a 4 column QS. None of these have been tested yet.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] smartymcfly:
Is the navbar still enabled in the one you mentioned?

I was looking in zip, where would I put 5column from mod zip into navbargonelight zip?

I am going to look if you already posted an answer to the second question, so of you did, don't worry about typing it out again.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Flash the base you mentioned, then in the zip of mods I posted, in SystemUIbase folder there will be a 5column folder, inside that there will be a zip. Flash that.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] smartymcfly:
I flashed the base and then 5 column. Rebooted, but the phone rebooted to recovery, then I tried rebooting again and this time it said something about factory data reset, so I **** phone down and rebooted to twrp and flashed ozop uninstall or revert zip and then reflashed system image, kernel, trwp, and magisk. Back to where I started but did not lose any data.

Are there any logs that I can send you?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
How are you flashing it? TWRP,install, find zip and flash?

Edit:. I'm going to take it down for now...
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] joeyddr:
Did it work for you?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
It eliminated the 2nd clock but it's still being weird in that it shows a second status bar over the original when you pull the notification drawer down. So you have 2 battery indicators, 2 network indicators, and notifications hovering over each other. Looks strange.

I ended up just going back to the original 8.1 0.0 dp version Tulsadiver posted because it's perfect, but the clock is on the right. I can easily live with that.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
You can get the center clock with Substratum, but not get rid of the navbar that I'm aware of...
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
You are probably tired of my attempts but I uploaded a new navbar gone with additional mods.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
Actually, I just got around to installing TWRP and flashing today! I'm on 8.0/Nov, so using both the NavbarGone and center clock. Both as described...

The only thing I haven't done yet is look into the status bar icons showing up on the lock screen with the center clock mod. I remember someone pointing that out in the thread, but don't remember if it is something that you were able to change...

Anyway, your method of nuking the navbar is so much better than immersive mode, I couldn't be happier!

If you get enough mods, you should make an Aroma Installer [emoji41]
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
I did but I couldn't get anyone to try it. I really need a binary from a custom rom but there aren't any.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
Was it for the 8.0/Nov patch? I would love to try it...

Yeah, custom ROMs would be good, lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
I appreciate the work and have no problem being the guinea pig here. Glad to lend a hand.

My wife and I just hosted both sides of the family for Thanksgiving and now I'm too tired to think strait. But I'll give it a shot in the morning.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
Looked for the center clock mod that (hopefully) wouldn't cause the status bar icons to be displayed on the lock screen, but I think it's just for the 8.1 DP...

Also, to clarify, the icons I'm referring to are just the ones on the right side (WiFi, Bluetooth, battery etc), and they're not just on the lock screen (which I actually like), but also shown on the always-on display screen in ambient mode...

Let me know if you have a zip to try for 8.0, and thanks again!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
I thought they were always on the lockscreen....

I appreciate the input. I'm not on 8.1 or any of the pixel 2's so this might be hard to fix.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Here is an Aroma to try. If it boots up, go to the bottom and try to install the base called AndroidOstock0-2 and reboot after that to see if it will boot up. This is for 8.0 Nov.

https://mega.nz/#!kEYVyYxQ!gFpSGpRcJmXsf6tYi2EZV4WjLoR5xFhgcxb95tNgP_s
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
Ready to flash this one but can't find the link. Is it the new 8.1 link in the OP?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Yes, download the 8.1 navbar gone again but I took these clock mods down. It seems there is a problem in ambient on mode which I don't have so can't trouble shoot.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
It's still doing the weird status bar overlap thing. Screenshot:

But the original one you posted in post #103 doesn't have this issue:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Thanks for screenshot and info. I'll look into the difference between the two
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
No problem. I meant to do that earlier. Sorry it took so long.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
Downloaded the AFH version, and AndroidOstock0-2 does not appear to be on the list. SystemUIbase0-2 is, though...

Was finally able to get a Nandroid backup, so I'm feeling safe now!

Should I flash it, lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Yes
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
Made a backup and flashed the file mentioned above and it wiped my device. It then attempted to boot the system, but couldn't and reverted to recovery. Tried to restart manually from TWRP and it did the same.

Wiped everything except internal data and restored perfectly.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Try this. It will tell us if it was the binary problem or my mod. If binary, I need maybe a OTA for this phone, the one that is just an update. It might have a meta-inf in it with the binaries.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
That flashed perfectly. Don't know what it did, but phone booted fine. Maybe transition animations are different? Maybe not, lol...

Anyway, regarding the status bar icons visible during ambient mode, I don't think it's a deal breaker, maybe just requires a disclaimer. I had used a Substratum theme for center clock before getting TWRP set up, and it had the same effect...

https://imgur.com/a/Rf9L8
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
I took the system image, extracted it and made a deodexed Rom. The updater script is no good since I did not know the partition size but the update binary should be good. Try the Aroma now. Flash a base first, then any mods you might like. There is a navbar gone mod in the Aroma.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817906626617949122
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] smartymcfly:
when you say to flash a base first, fo we need to boot The phone up after flashing and then go back and flash mods? or is it just flash base 1st then mods after in same recovery session?

there is a magiak module on the fly maker in the original pixel mod forum, is that something we need to flash as the only root available for pixel 2 is using magisk? supersu is not available on pixel 2 or 2xl.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Root is root. Magisk modules are for hiding root.

Each flash is a complete install of mod. You may continue to install other mods in the same flashing session.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
Ok, made a backup, flashed SystemUIbase0-2, then a Blue Status Bar mod. Rebooted and phone got stuck at G logo for over 30 minutes.

Booted to TWRP, that back into system. Phone displayed "Factory Data Reset" like previous Aroma attempt and rebooted itself into recovery.

Restored backup and all is well.

Shame, because colored status bar icons are awesome!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
It doesn't look like I got the framework in the base. I'm uploading another one now via mega, AFH is giving me problems from my phone. You can either flash that stand alone base I gave you earlier and then go back and flash blue icons or wait until I can get this new one uploaded.

Shouldn't ever take More than a few minutes to boot.

Mega

[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Guitarfreak26:
Loving this mod with LMT launcher. Just wondering if anyone knows how to make all apps full screen? Some apps such as Spotify leave a black bar at the bottom
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
Downloaded the AFH file, but TWRP said it was corrupt. Flashed the stand-alone base, then ran the previous version of Aroma that had the non-working base and flashed the blue icons mod.

Everything flashed fine, but icons are unchanged...

It occurs to me that Android is doing something different with the coloring of the icons because the status bar changes from light to dark based on background color, and the icons change from black to white based on status bar color. Not sure if that was the case when the zip was created..?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Do you have busybox installed?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
I believe so, yes...

Edit:

https://imgur.com/a/LOHcQ
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
This one will install it correctly.

Flash in twrp

Edit: I believe mine is looking in sbin. (xbin is correct but this universal installed by osmosis is really good)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Yes, I'm on 8.0 on my Pixel, it has the same dual theme icons and mine works....
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
Wow, that does look cool. Unfortunately the BusyBox universal install didn't change my status bar icons either...

Not complaining at this point. Still happy just to have the navbar gone and center clock [emoji106]
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Juzman:
So, I downloaded pixel2XL80NovNavBarGoneCC.zip and flashed it via TWRP.

I still have navbar, but clock is centered, is this normal or do I have to flash pixel2XL80NovNavBarGone.zip afterwards?

I'm on latest November release, APD1.170816.025.

Edit: Flashed pixel2XL80NovNavBarGone.zip and navbar is gone, but no center clock.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
The sequence is supposed to be flash the NavbarGone for November first, then flash Center clock mod.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
Try the one from Mega if you are still interested. I got the same corrupt message when trying the one from AFH but the mega one flashed fine.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
Definitely [emoji106]
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
Trying to download this so I can update to 8.1 DP2 However, Android File Host can't locate any mirrors to download from. It's been like this for a couple of days now.

Would you mind uploading the file here directly?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
It was too big. I compressed it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
Thanks!

I ended up just flashing the 8.1 DP2 from scratch to avoid any issues. But after installing the nav bar gone mod for 8.1 DP1, my phone went into a bootloop. Should I hold off until a new one is made for DP2?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
Hey sn0warmy, does 8.1 have the Nov patch yet..?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
Yep. DP2 has the Nov 5th patch. It was just released today.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] slaydog:
Oh, wow. Cool [emoji106]

Thanks
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Tulsadiver:
When someone has updated I'll need them to upload the framework-res.apk and SystemUiGoogle folder for me so I can make a navbar gone mod for it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] sn0warmy:
If you can point me in the right direction to get those things, I'll be glad to provide them to you. Just not sure how. (I'm on 8.1 DP2 currently)

When you upgrade to Oreo, shouldn't Oreo alone be enough to do the power management?! I've read that Oreo has built in feature(s) to throttle background activities so I"m wondering why Huawei didn't remove their power management lines of code from EMUI v8 (which is currently present on their Mate 10 devices) and leave the task to the OS to do the thing more efficiently?!:confused:
