Heya! Version 1.5 is live!

Due to some changes to the package, you

could

face some installation issues. If so, it means that the older version of Android Auto Backgrounds has to be uninstalled, sorry for the inconvenience

Here's what's changed:

The app now has a welcome dialog upon launching. It explains how to apply the backgrounds and has a dedicated donate button in case you want to buy me a coffee :)

Added 5 casual wallpapers

Added 5 gradients wallpapers

Fixed a typo in the Ford ST background in order to follow alphabetical order

Heya! Version 1.6 - Art Update is live!

Here's what's changed:

Added 11 famous art paintings. Along with Van Gogh's starry night (one of the firts backgrounds I've actually made for the theme) you can now expose an art painting behind Android Auto's icons

Fixed some errors occurring on the welcome dialog on small resolutions

Dimmed some backgrounds with car logo to make them less shiny (Toyota, Opel and Honda this time around. If you have any issues with other car logos let me know!)

About synergy support: I've tried myself with a friend phone, and I see Synergy builds the theme just fine but the background doesn't change at all. Unfortunately it requires me more time to find a fix for synergy support. I'm trying so hard to run some tests on Samsung Remote Labs devices in order to adress more specifically the root of the problem but I'm either encountering some devices with pre-setup and logged-off Samsung Accounts with no way to download the high contrast theme or devices on very slow servers that make testing impossible. I'll try my best to have ideal working conditions and find a fix as soon as possible, sorry!

substratum aa background
[Android Themes] rapdes:
Anybody have this working on Android 10 with the latest Android auto?

The overlays install and enables without errors but nothing changes in Android auto
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
Uhm... Working fine here on Android 10... What device do you have?
[Android Themes] rapdes:
I have the oneplus 7pro
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
Hm... Have you got Substratum 1022 installed?
[Android Themes] rapdes:
Yup the latest substratum beta 1022, Android Q 10.01 and AA 4.8.59, magisk 20.2

Everything installs OK with no errors but it doesn't apply the overlay
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
Is the overlay indeed enabled in the manager section of Substratum?
[Android Themes] rapdes:
Yes I believe it is, I enable it after rebooting and it turns green which I assume means it's enabled.

I've also tried rebooting again after that as well.
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
Weird... Do you have other themes enabled and do they build and apply fine?
[Android Themes] rapdes:
I didn't have any other themes enabled, but to test it out I installed swift black theme and it worked like it should, and still nothing with android auto unfortunately
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
Just to clarify... Are you using Android Auto on car's screen or phone screen? Cause this theme applies to car only
[Android Themes] rapdes:
This is on the car screen, in my chevy truck, there actually is no phone interface anymore, since Android auto is built directly into Android Q, I have no app icon for Android auto anymore.
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
Uhm... Sounds very weird to me... But there's something you can try. On Magisk Manager, go to Modules and erase Substratum with the trash bin icon (be careful that this will wipe any overlay installed, if you care about re-setting every overlay, make a backup). Reboot. Open Substratum, it should build the module again. Reboot and then follow the standard procedure to apply the overlay, so build it, reboot, and enable it.

It happens sometimes that the Magisk Module gets buggy. It could be the case. If it's not, I should investigate even deeper, but that's worth a try.
[Android Themes] rapdes:
I tried your steps exactly, the magisk module rebuilt the overlays compiled and installed without errors, after rebooting they enabled fine. But still no change.

I appreciate all the help you've given me so far.
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
I could have found the culript by seeing the logs on my OnePlus. It could be that Android Auto has changed some resource. Stay tuned.
[Android Themes] rapdes:
Thanks for looking into this for me, let me know if I can help somehow

Based on Substratum help thread, it seems like Substratum 1022 added Android Q compatibility but broke Oreo. Rollback one version (you can find it here https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/proje...tum-theme-engine-one-thousand-twenty-release/ ) and try again. Make sure you disable automatic updates of Substratum on Play Store too.

These are blacklisted apps. You can't use Substratum and/or Andromeda with these installed. Also, if you applied any patch with Luck Patcher, I advise you to kill them, because they will break Andromeda.

Heya! Version 2.0 - is live!

Starting with version 2.0, the theme will appear as an icon in the launcher. If Substratum is not installed, a friendly reminder will show up telling to install Substratum. There are many user downloading my theme not knowing how to apply it and this is a way to get people less confuesd. You can hide the icon just fine if you have Substratum installed, cause it will just take you to Substratum/Substratum Lite itself.

Here's what changed:

The theme reached 364 backgrounds

Added 11 backgrounds of astrophotography

Dialog screens are now translated in Polish (thanks to [MENTION=6492969]alderon666[/MENTION])

[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
Let's start by saying this is totally out of my theme's scope.

Nevertheless, it's up to your car manufacturer to adjust the aspect ratio of Android Auto, and not Android Auto's fault. You should seek help on a site/forum related to your car, or ask to customer care. Maybe with a software update they'll bring widescreen support.

Hi

I installed the latest version of the AA backgrounds and substratum and it doesnt work on samsung s9 plus with stock firmware rooted with magisk. After installing the background and restarting, it doesnt appear in the substratum manager to be activated.

With the substratum lite, I can install, reboot and view it in the manager, but when activating the background, the car's AA background screen get solid black. I tried with the latest AA version and the old ones. I tried to clean the magisk modules and reinstalled several times.

Any help?

Thanks
[Android Themes] farmerjohn:
I have the same problem as [MENTION=6247710]spacekratos[/MENTION]

Tried with 3 different phones:

1) Mi 9 with MIUI 11, Android 10

2) OP3 with Android 9

3) OPO with Lineage OS, Android 9

All phones rooted with Magisk 20.3

All behave in the same way. Substratum doesn't work at all, Substratum Lite seems to install and enable (green "Android Auto" in the manager tab), but when I connect to my car, the background shows pure black (original background is not showing).
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
[MENTION=6247710]spacekratos[/MENTION] [MENTION=2697655]farmerjohn[/MENTION] could you please tell me what Substratum/Substratum Lite version you are using on your devices?
[Android Themes] farmerjohn:
Substratum 1022

Substratum Lite 0.3.47
[Android Themes] spacekratos:
Same versions here.
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
For your Android 9 devices, could you please try Substratum 1021 and see if it helps? Do a clean install of the magisk module.

As for Substratum Lite, try to go into settings and activate "Force use new compiler".

Then if you happen to have Android Auto on Magisk Hide/XPrivacyLua/Sudohide or any other app that hides root, please remove it because it would break Substratum.
[Android Themes] farmerjohn:
Could you be so kind to provide a link to 1021? I was only able to find 1020.

Thanks for your help, will try when I'm at Home.
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
You can go ahead with 1020 :)
[Android Themes] spacekratos:
Hi

Tried your tip with lite but still no success. Cant find 1021 apk but with 1020 doesnt work. Same errors.
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
So is there any error on compiling or just the fact that you can't activate?
[Android Themes] spacekratos:
No errors. Substratum overlays doesnt apper in the manager after installation and reboot. Lite shows overlay in manager after install and reboot but enabling it get solid black background in AA.

Tried with an old rooted moto G5 Android 8, not working same s9 plus problems.
[Android Themes] farmerjohn:
Tried everything you said, but no success :(

[MENTION=6247710]spacekratos[/MENTION]: What Magisk version are you on?

What I found out is the following (hope you understand what I mean):

Using substratum, after "build and install" everything seems fine (no error message), but nothing happens in the manager tab. I reboot, still nothing in the manager tab. BUT: If I click on AA Backgrounds in the themes tab again and select the exact same wallpaper as before, it shows me a red "Android Auto" and green "....2.0.5" so something seem to have happened. I ticked this and selected activate, but still no success. After the next reboot, substratum says "you have to compile first" again.
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
Oh I think I've found the culript [MENTION=2697655]farmerjohn[/MENTION] [MENTION=6247710]spacekratos[/MENTION] . It has nothing to do with Substratum or Magisk so don't play around to fix it. As soon as I can go back to my PC I think I'll gonna release a new version.
[Android Themes] spacekratos:
ok thank you for your support.
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
[MENTION=2697655]farmerjohn[/MENTION] [MENTION=6247710]spacekratos[/MENTION] new build is up. Should be all good now
[Android Themes] farmerjohn:
Substratum still fails, but with Substratum Lite everything works like it should now. Thank you!
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
If you are still on 1020 and Android 10 it's expected to fail, you should go back to 1022 now
[Android Themes] spacekratos:
Its working with lite! Thank you !

Any chance to change old AA versions homescreen background? I prefer the old interface.
[Android Themes] shmykelsa:
Android Auto can't be reverted anymore on old interface. Anyways, only the gradient could be changed. No custom wallpapers.
