Great work as usual Mark. Couple requests if possible. The white line at the bottom of the notification shade, didn't know if it was possible to black it out with the rest? Also the quick toggle icons, make then aosp/pixel style?

looking forward to more themes converted to the G7.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Thanks a lot. So that line you speak of is doable but when I removed it, it seemed to take away from the look especially when you have notifications. Keeping gave a bit if seperation between the qs panel and notifications.

As for theming the actual qs icons, well I haven't figured out how to go about that yet. Lg did not make that one easy and frankly idk if I can sort out that mess it not
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] wodurrah:
Annoying to setup. Maybe issue is my ADB but it doesnt really matter. I have to go through two pay walls totaling almost $5 before I even know if I like the theme. Then by the time I have figured out all the steps and set up with the theme then im outside the 15 min refund window, for both Andromeda and for the theme, if isnt to my liking.

If this process was streamlined somehow I would def pay the money.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
The window is 2 hours. How much did your G7 cost you?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikestony:
HA! :victory:
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
You see what I did there ??????
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Oh hey guys...

Alpha is updated btw!

Lots of new updates, fixes, improvements and other goodies. See in app changelog for full details
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikestony:
Would the best way to go about applying the update, be to disable all overlays, update the PlayStore apps, go back and "Build and update", then apply the new overlays? If your updated app explains it all in substratum, I'm at work now and cannot access substratum without andromeda on my work computer. :(
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Only disable and rebuild apps that were listed in the change log and also android and system UI. If you haven't rebooted lately you don't necessarily have to wait. You only need Andromeda after you reboot.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] caanda45:
Is root needed for this theme? If not a good video on how to install? Old man here not as fast as you young kids.....lol any help would be appreciated!!!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikestony:
No root needed, and the video is in the first post of the thread. Also, a good read is the description in the PlayStore for the app along with more links. :) It took me some time to get used to the install process and all the options available. In fact, I'm still getting used to it :)
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Oh I wish I was a young lad still!

Thanks for the hand dude!

[MENTION=5098295]markbencze[/MENTION],

I really like the theme it is very well done and plays well with the UI. I have had issues with some themes not working properly. I do have a question as I am not well versed in Substrantum. How and what option do I use to get all of the notification Sade to be themed? Or is this a WIP.

I am running the GUY by the way if this helps.

Thanks for your contribution to the community.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikestony:
Have you rebooted?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
Ahh, I have not. Oversight, thanks
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] caanda45:
Ok guys starting to play around here, can`t find Alpha...lol found it...once I bought it......dumb....loading it now!!!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] NibZib:
Wow this looks nice. The video is a V30 phone. Any plans on a G7 version? Just got this great beast a few days ago.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
The theme does support our G7 just fine. Simply select G7 as your OS at the top and you should be all set. I made the video before the G7 came out.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Idk why this option was disabled for most of us (TMO users had it enabled) but I've got it enabled for us all now!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Issemann:
Excellent! [emoji16] How do I enable it?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
Settings>Home Screen>Layout
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Well if your carrier didn't disable it you can. If not people will need to wait for the next update of Alpha
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Hey guys, Alpha update is live now! Enjoy the Google feed home integration if you didn't have it before!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
I am using the latest updated version, have removed pervious over lays, rebooted, went through the process to install, rebooted, and no matter what color I choose for the accent it comes out green in the settings and the text is teal in the notification shade. Not sure what I'm missing.

LG G7 is selected for the device.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] WaxysDargle:
watch the instructional video and follow it precisely
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
There is another update coming in the next couple hours. The issue you're experiencing may be from a typo I made with 2.9.

3.0 coming soon and 3.1 shortly afterwards. I got a bunch of Google app updates last night so I'm gonna fix those tonight too
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
Tanks for the answer, I thought I was following directions properly.

Just installed the new 2.9-3.0 update, installing theme now.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
3.1 is live now too lol! See in app change log for full details. Lots of app updates
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
Looking forward to tying out the update tonight when I get home [emoji3]
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
You don't have to wait until less you e rebooted or lost connection with Andromeda. You only need to use Andromeda if you reboot or mysteriously lose connection with it which can happen. If you didn't lose connection you can update and apply without being by a computer. To check just open the Andromeda app and if you get the green box you're golden
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
The problem is Andromeda. It does not like to connect. I have to run the .bat script many times to get it to connect. It's annoying, but worth it.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
That seems odd. I'd love to see a video of this. Idk if I've heard of this with anyone before with any device.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
well I guess I am an anomaly. I just ran it about 25 times or so before it works. Next time I have to reconnect it, I will video it for you
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Is it an adb issue? Like when you press any key does it error on you or what exactly is going on?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikestony:
Is your usb cable that you are using the o.e. cable? Perhaps your connection is a bit wonky?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
It's the oe cable. I'll try a different one just for fun.

Tried a different cable, still had issues. So I deleted Andromeda and then downloaded it again. It works better, I only had to run it 4 times for it to work.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikestony:
You deleted/downloaded the Andromeda app or desktop client or both?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
Just the PC client.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikestony:
Just for ****s-n-giggles, clear the cache/data from the Andromeda app, uninstall, then reinstall?

I recall only having that issue once, and it was on my work computer. My laptop at home connects on the first try. Hmmm, try a different computer? Just throwing out some other ideas.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
Here is a video not connecting to Andromeda. Although I only had to try about six time before it connected. I did reinstall the PC client as well as the app on the device. I am also using the OE cable. ADB is working properly as I am able to reboot and see the device list etc. Any advice would be great.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1kjq1SAHA8
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Seems like an issue with adb. Did you install the 15 second system wide adb?

Also in the folder where you have Andromeda, hold shift and then right click and select open CMD (PowerShell) window here and type "adb devices"

Do that a few times and let me know if each time it recognizes your device. If it doesn't then it's probably an adb issue or maybe one of your usb ports is acting up

Seems very odd. Hopefully it's just a simple adb fix
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
I installed adb when I got the PC in 2015. So it's been there for a while. When I use Power Shell, it does not recognize the device but when I click search then CMD, open window run it and it detects device no problem. I moved Andromeda to the folder where adb lives and it worked no problem.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] sickkside13:
Had the same issue at first I had to re-connect to pc client several times but now I haven't had any issue at all.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
What do you guys think of this?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] co.ag.2005:
I like it! I was kind of hoping for a non-black theme for the G7. Just something to clean up the dull stock theme
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
That's nice, sometimes I don't want dark, the color makes it fun
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikestony:
While it may suit some folks, I'm all about dark. Dark this, dark that, so I'm sticking with Alpha! :)
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Completely understandable. There are some light fans so I gotta give em something!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] WhiteHartMart:
Had this had an OLED panel I'd be all over the dark theme. As it is, bring on the Light ??
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
We're getting closer!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Hey guys I see that there are some roms coming out for the G7 now. Personally I'm done with rooting and flashing crap constantly and for me it's not needed anymore.

Anyway just a heads up that I do not and will not support any roms stock based or not. If you at any point flash a rom and have issues you're on your own.

I cannot control what people modify from a stock system and due to this I cannot offer support as said modifications can and usually will comprise the integrity of the system.

I ran into this in the past with the G5 and G6 users using a certain LG stock based rom and asked the guy who makes it to mention in his op that some of his changes could affect theme integration. Unfortunately due to his tremendous ego he declined and blamed me even though it was obvious that a theme that worked on stock just fine only gave his users issues.

So just keep this in mind if you use a rootable device!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
I'm with you, rooting has become a thing of the past for me as well. I no longer miss the days of flashing multiple times a day and all of that. It was fun, but anymore I find it unnecessary. Most of the things I was rooting for I can now do without root and while gaining the benefit of all features and functions working properly and without long drawn out workarounds. I applaud your stance and agree wholeheartedly.

[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] WaxysDargle:
i'm having issues with QS icons being solid color (no picture inside). anyone else?

EDIT: figured it out. certain color combinations between Android System and LG Resources do not play nicely together
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikestony:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but with all these google apps that have not updated:

I need to wait until the Alpha theme is updated to ensure that these Google apps are themed correct?

Or, can I disable all overlays, update the apps, then build/update, then enable them again?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Hey everyone,

Hope everyone's doing well. I've been pretty busy as of late and I even got to take a little break and get away which was much needed! It's always good to be able to recharge the battery. Anyway I've been trying for weeks to get my new theme done but have been consumed with Alpha and constant updates. Now I know I need to update a bunch of apps and I'll do that very soon (maybe in the next few days) but I had to put it aside for a bit so I could get my next project done. It is now done (well version 1 is) and like Alpha I will update it as required and probably add more options and apps etc. It likely will not require the same amount of updates as Alpha given the style of it. But don't worry I'll make sure it's tended to properly.

It's a lot easier to manage and update a few themes than to create a new one from scratch, so that means the hard part is behind me now. So with that said I've made something the complete opposite end of the spectrum for those who want something lighter.

I hope you enjoy it!

Experience the Pixel!!! and check out post 2 for more details!!!

[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
Am I missing something here....read post 2 and your G+ page and play store and don't see the theme. Is it in Alpa?

I haven't advertised it yet on Google plus. I made an oops for the G6 and V30s users so I gotta get home and fix it before I advertise it anymore
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
Well that makes sense.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Yeah but it's fixed now in a mini update and live now! Now I can post on Google plus and then crash. I worked today and then had to bale 450 square bales for my horses and it's the worst type of work ever! I'm dying!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
You are a better man than I am. Helped out a friend on his farm and it was the hardest labor I have ever done. Have lots of respect for that kind of work.

By the way, the theme looks fantastic!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] nrage23:
What combo did you use?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] WaxysDargle:
Android System: Blacked out with Pissel Blue accent

LG System Resources: G7 Cyan with music fix

Snippy Snippy. U have whole hell of a lot of thanks on ur meter so im not gonna argue with you on the Internets. I pay $30 a month for my financed phone. And I'm sure $5 wont kill me. Point made.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Lol it took me a bit to remember what you were talking about! Hope things are well with you and you're enjoying the theme.

Also fyi to everyone else, I'll be home from my holidays this weekend and making some much needed updates to both themes.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Hey guys,

So I'm partly done an update (much needed) for Alpha and I've been doing some thinking about how I'm going to keep doing things and what I may try is doing a couple versions of some themes. Basically it comes down to being overwhelmed by emails from so many people who just will not take time to read instructions for substratum. On a daily basis I get at least 5 or 6 people asking how it works. I'll then ask them to read the instructions to which most again ask how to use it.

So it's one of those, why do I need to re-write it out for them? I just don't get it. So I may make a substratum theme that will include some 3rd party apps and then a seperate LG theme which will just touch system resources for those looking for a quick set and forget trype of approach and for those who either can't understand substratum, don't understand and those who just don't want to use it.

Thoughts?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] jascolli:
I would definitely be interested in an LG system theme. Thanks for your consideration.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] jeffwyeh:
First of all, thanks for making this! I'm running the Pixel Experience version (probably in the minority here...), and I found a minor oddity in the dialer. When wifi calling is active (I'm on Verizon, FWIW), the green dial button is being overlayed with a wifi calling icon. I've attached screenshots of both the themed and unthemed dialers. Let me know if you need anything else from me, or if this is actually an issue on my end.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Ah ok, I don't have wifi calling so I missed it. I'll add it to the next update. Thanks for reporting
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] nrage23:
It would probably be much easier on you to the LG system theme separate. There are several substratum themes for the google and third party apps that update very frequently.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Yeah i know. It's crazy. I can handle the updates but the amount of emails from confused people not reading is driving me nuts and i can't be sending every day telling people how substratum works. Its ridiculous
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikestony:
Sometimes you just have to have to ignore the ones who want to be spoon-fed, and focus on your themes.

Easier said than done I'm sure, as you don't want to alienate anybody, but you're just one guy.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Wish i could but there's too many lol! For real its insane.

Its ok though im gonna keep playing and adding to my current substratum themes but I've got some cool ideas I'm gonna do and it will eliminate a lot of these emails. My wife for real is going insane because my phone goes off constantly! It didn't when i just did legacy lg themes.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] gatsu_1981:
Hi, I have an issue with your theme: white button on white background in some apps (at least in facebook reply to comments).

Is that a theme issue or a Facebook app issue? Regards.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
The buttons in the screen you speak of are outlined with a shadow, the same as stock is. That's the only way to maintain the adaptive icons. Otherwise you would be stuck with rounded square icons.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] gatsu_1981:
No, just the "point" icon on the left (the one for switching to full-screen") has a little shadow outline.

The other buttons are plain white on white, I'm using the "Android P Pissel" styled navigation bar.

I will provide you a screenshot later, I can make it happens everytime on Facebook, I don't remember other apps now but on Facebook reply I'm 100% sure.
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] WaxysDargle:
most people have no business using substratum. it's pretty complicated, as far as theming apps go.

you really shouldn't be answering any questions on how to use substratum. your time is too important to you, your wife and ME!

create yourself a "support" email address and turn notifications off on it, or set it to sync once every few hours. we don't need you getting burned out!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Alpha has been updated again folks! It's been a few weeks since I've touched it but all apps should be good to go again!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikestony:
Thanks Mark!

Question, as I foresee this coming sooner or later, when Verizon deems it necessary to update my device, will that bork anything as far as your theme is concerned? In particular, the theming of the system... e.g. contacts/settings/dialer and such.

Or is that dependent on the type of Verizon update?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
I can't be sure. They don't normally but sometimes things can break so I have to just reassess whenever that will happen
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
So I can't remember if I mentioned it here or if it was Google plus, but last week the power button somehow fell out of my G7 so I sent it on Tuesday for repair. Really sucks but it happens so hopefully I'll get it back this coming week. I'm using my V30 right now and although it's still a great phone I miss my G7 like crazy.

Anyway I'm thinking G Theme should be something to have on the G7 and that should be my next project. Are any of you guys familiar with it? It's a theme I've made for all my lg devices and has been one of my favorites with the cool animations on the toggle switches and check boxes and other stuff.

If you hadn't seen it before, here's what the V30 and G6 Nougat version looked like. I'm fairly certain I can make the G7 version even prettier!

[youtube]68b82xbUjuw[/youtube]
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Got my G7 back today! So happy. Time to tinker
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Hey guys,

So something cool I've been tinkering with here... I have figured out a way to add some third party apps to my new LG "legacy" theme. Now to error on the side of caution I cannot go crazy and add a ton of apps like substratum because as many know that use substratum, an app update can break the overlay and unlike substratum, with the LG theme system you cannot disable individual overlays and have them revert to stock. So basically if an app updates and the update breaks it, it could break the theme. So I'm probably only going to add a few third party apps that aren't known to break too many things to try and avoid that. We'll just have to see.

But this is pretty cool and I'm gonna keep tinkering here and see what I can make happen!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
Easier said than done. Unfortunately the way lg makes them is quite a daunting and complicated way. May or may not be doable.

But perhaps everyone would like some rounded notifications. I might be able to do that
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
What do you guys think of the rounded notifications and quick settings panel? I think it adds a very nice touch!
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] phillymade:
The round looks awesome

Superb. Looks so much better. Have a Pixel 2XL also and much prefer the notification look ?
[LG G7 ThinQ  Themes, Apps, and Mods] Negan:
