Sweet

I really like your Google search widget bud!

Im going to make a really big ASSUMPTION here and say that more than 80% of PiXL2 owners here either have the the unlocked Google store or Fi variant. I was gifted a Verizon one and couldn't get the dev friendly one. So Substratum is my new friend lol.

Navigate Theme works.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Zorachus:
I always go back to Swift Dark, I just love that color, it's not pitch shiny black, and not white, it's just right to me, nice and dark.

Anyways, how do I theme the GBoard Google Keyboard the same Dark color, to match Swift Dark ? The stock available colors, there's like 3 or 4 in the Google Keyboard themes option, and none of them match. There's one that's pitch black = too dark, and the other 2 or 3 three are just different darker shades either lighter or different, but not matching Swift Dark.

So wondering how do I specifically get the keyboard color to match the each shade for Swift Dark ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] madscribblerz:
Dunno about theming the gboard keyboard, but SwiftKey is better (IMHO) and has themes galore.

I have had 2 themes completely Bork my phone. One was spectrum and the other I can't remember. Both themes after a reboot caused the phone to immediately crash the system UI and render the phone useless. The themes that I used that work are swift dark/black, dark material, GRVY, pitch black, the destiny black theme, and Flux. I know someone reported an issue with Flux but I've not seen anything serious. The most that I usually see is that as apps get updated they tend to start crashing. It would be nice to start compiling a list in the OP of working themes

You also have to make sure you download the materialized version of the newest version. Once installed reboot. Go to the app, enable developer mode, and disable selinux. This has worked really well for me. I take no credit in the process, as I found it in a search.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jeremiah_1988:
Quick question, looking to install pitch black theme, I'm on 8.1 stock rooted, do I choose the 8.1 legacy option or just the oreo legacy? I just want to make sure I pick the right one.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Badger50:
8.1. If you have problems compiling the overlays, then try the other. Build 3-4 overlays at a time by selecting "build and uodate' then go to the overlay manager and enable them once you've compiled them all ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] madscribblerz:
Disabling selinux puts viper in compatibility mode, which reduces audio quality and disables some features.

I recommend you use the magisk permissive module instead.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] madscribblerz:
Part of the material design spec is to change the nav button color with the color of the app, so it's dark and light as necessary.

If you still want to change it, install the xposed framework sdk 27 module for magisk (in magisk downloads) and the accompanying apk (must get for magisk specifically, the general one won't recognize magisk systemless version of xposed) then install the gravitybox module for Oreo (beta but solid, search XDA for it).

Once you've done all this you can use gravityboxes navigation bar settings to set your buttons to what you want and add a custom button, as well as adjust height and whatnot.

This is my nav bar -

Just started using Substratum a few days ago. Using Swift Dark, my always on lock screen does not show now. I have looked down through the overlays to see if any of them would be effecting this and causing it not to show. Just updated to Feb Security patch last night on my P2XL, but was doing this before the update as well.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Badger50:
Does it work without the theme?? I'm running the same theme on Feb update. AOD is working as intended for me. Any other theme installed as well??
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] AwkwardUberHero:
No other themes installed, and without the theme enabled, it works fine for me. I have disabled all overlays and am currently not using Substratum at the moment until I can figure out what is going on.

Do you happen to know which overlay would cause the AoD not to display? I thought it was the notifications one, so I set that to white, but it still did not show.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Badger50:
Could be an app issue. I'd clear all cache and data from substratum, uninstall it, reboot, install again, grant root, and see what happens. Themes shouldn't affect AOD. Never has on my device.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] AwkwardUberHero:
I think that I figured it out. I had disabled all overlays, but did not think to clear the installed overlays as well. Just did that, and seems to be working ok for now.

Is anybody else having issues with Substratum on latest March security update on Google Pixel 2 XL? Rooted with Latest Magisk 16 and granted root to Substatum, themes say they apply ok, but it's not actually applied. I've tried resetting Substatum and multiple themes, rebooting in between, with the same outcome. :confused:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Badger50:
I'm right there with ya brother!! Tried clearing substratum app data/cache, uninstalled, reinstalled, and still get the same thing!! I have to reboot after I compile the overlays so I can see them so I can then enable them. They still work, but, yeah, the March update evidently has borked something with substratum! ??
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] madscribblerz:
I'm using l speed to clear the cache and davlik before and after and it's working when built and with a reboot (and substratum has always required a reboot for pitch black else stuff renders orange).

Note there are a ton of updates between the March updates and play store updates so it's possible the theme isn't building because it lacks all the updated resource versions yet.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Badger50:
True, but it's happening with no matter what overlays I'm using. Oh well, as long as I can still get it to work, I'm good :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Felosis:
Interesting, I'm using PitchBlack too, which was actually updated yesterday. The only thing I've not tried yet is clearing cache before and after, otherwise I've done/tried everything you both listed with reboot in between to be sure. I'll mess around with it again if I get time at work today. :)

Pitch Black updated again this morning (including the new calendar update) and it applied first try without clearing caches for me.

FWIW.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] simpsonr:
Yes. For Sure. However, I have a pretty workable err... workaround for it. I build and enable overlays... sometimes some build and enable, sometimes some build and are disabled and sometimes some don't build at all. To get everything working... I build and enable... and go to manager... if there is stuff in there and enabled... then those are good. If I go in there and there is stuff but disabled... I reboot. Then after reboot, go into manager, select the disabled ones and "enable"... that seems to do the trick most of the time. Then I go back to my theme (swift dark in my case) go in and build/enable again on the ones that didn't work. Rinse repeat the process. After a few rounds of this and reboots, everything eventually builds and enables...

But, yeah, major pain in the ass.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Themes, Apps, and Mods] Felosis:
Huh, that is a pain. Thanks for the info. Hopefully some updates between Substratum and the themes work this out soon. I'll mess with it more later when I have time. :good:

You can 'stay stock' and root, in that you don't have to run a custom kernel. Magisk allows for systemless root that isn't detectable.
