System UI Colors/Accent

Does anyone have any idea his to change the System UI color or accent because the Teal is very ugly. I hope there is a method without root because I'm not trying to lose OTA's.
I used Substratum X Andromeda via ADB enabled and now since it isn't allowed with Android Pie I can't edit anything without root.
Any ideas anyone? :crying: :highfive:

Interested

In Oreo it is possible by installing the apk of the color you want. When done that, it enables "Themes" in "Screen" in "Settings"
Google it, I found them in Mi A1 sub

Can you elaborate a little more? I googled android oreo color apk - all I found was this thread...closed for ripping/distributuing substratum themes.

Works here on Oreo

This magisk module is working on A2 lite pie

Pix3lify from magisk also works like a charm, it even makes everything rounder just like it is on Pixel devices and roms.

Does that allow color change? Or just pixel theme?

Hey everyone! I have found something you will be interested in. If you have root you can buy and install "Swift Installer - Themes & Color Engine" you use magisk and root to apply overlays and you can choose your notification tool area transparency, your full device accent, and better yet it supports apps like Snapchat, GApps (Google Apps), Instagram, Spotify and more I will put the list of apps below!
List of apps your theme will get applied to: https://goo.gl/gS84kK
Google Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brit.swiftinstaller
I have been using this ever since it released its like their own Substratum Engine but awesome and for Pie users

Well it is working on my note 8 but it need more modifications as the dialer, settings and gallery are not themed well in addition the sounds are not set on my phone but it is very good as a start keep it up

It's working nice but I am a note 10 plus user and I really liked the s pen sound effects so can you update it?

@Boody Bryant I tested it on Note 8 and it's working fine. Follow the steps as mentioned above.
Cheers !

@BrinierFlame What exactly do you want to update ? It's by default in the original apk.
This is a non-modified version of the theme.
Cheers

I just noticed this is the first post of both of you on XDA. Feel free to tinker around @Boody Bryant and @BrinierFlame.
Cheers !

if you use custom one ui installer it won't install properly I guess.

What about an 8.0 device
I have a samsung j7 max running 8.0 so will it work on it??

• Don't use Custom One UI installer and hex installer, the theme won't apply properly. Only specific themes are designed to work on them.
• I don't want Samsung moderators to pull off this thread as the Star wars edition is just out.
• You can always use apps like package disabler pro to keep using Theme permanently. There are hundreds of tutorials on package disabler pro on YouTube.
Please have a look.
Cheers !

I cant get the theme to install on my phone amd I have a note 10+

• The theme was designed to work only on One UI devices.
• You can always download it and give a try, it's free. I currently don't have any Samsung Oreo device to test on.
• Anyways, I feel Batman Injustice theme from S7 edge was waay cooler, you should try that.

Did you followed the steps properly ?
My note 10+ has successfully applied the theme.
1) EXTRACT the B]Darkside RC.apk from the .ZIP file.
2) Download the APK installer app mentioned above.
3) OPEN APK installer app and Install the Darkside RC.apk
4) Open Samsung theme store and apply the theme.
Other users have already applied theme on their devices.
Fell free to DM me on XDA, if you were unable to apply the theme. I'll be happy to guide you again.
Cheers !

Working fine on factory unlocked Note 10+ with Android 10 beta for 10 minutes. Having an issue killing the 10 minute time out rule. Tried package disabler and no luck either.

Question Themes app for rooted mi pad 5?

After I have root on my pad, is there any module or any method to show themes app and install miui themes on my tablet?

I checked the telegram group but didn't see anything related to this.... so far I don't see any possible way

I've done it without rooting. It kinda works, main widget (weather + clock) is either too small or too big, also doesnt work on landscape mode, you will have problems in lockscreen etc.
I used miui theme kit apk to install theme and another app from play store that reveals hidden system apps shortcuts. App is there, it's just hidden, you can do some thing like get back to default theme.
That's a dissapointment because main reason i bought this pad is theme customisation. Most of MIUI features doesn't work here.

Check this out once https://t.me/redmipadofficial/1942 after u got root just flash this zip file which enables you to import and flash custom themes/fonts/wallpaper of your choice
You can get custom themes files from other Xiaomi device or from Google search miui themes then download the Mtz theme file and then
U have two ways to open this app,after u flash this magisk module u will not see any difference and can't see themes app in app drawer
1. Go to setting then in wallpaper and here u go with moded themes app
2. In steps -
long press on home screen ..choose wallpaper
top right ..choose themes icon
my account
themes .. import .. choose mtz files
apply and reboot once.
[Yeah, this mod themes app is taken from China miui Android phone rom hence it doesn't support landscape mode, bellow is the screen shot... Personaly I didn't found any good theme so I didn't flash any now but still good to have option in case u want to...]

I've tried this before and it would t work. I've seen the themes app is hidden but it will not open I receive the message it's not supported in your region. Changing the region doesn't help.

Will also suggest to try coustomiuizer 13 and Monet miui, allows you lot of customisation but one warnings don't mess up with charging animation... I messed once with lspossed wave apk from then on I am not able to find single method to get back to orginal charging animation... So now have to use that lsposed wave charging animation to hide stock crupted charging animation...
Otherwise everything works better than what miui gives...

Question Oxygen OS 13 Custom Launchers

Hello everyone,
As you should already know Oneplus released the stable update of A13 for Oneplus 9/9 Pro, as some of you i installed on my 9 Pro and everything works ok.
But i wanted to install custom launcher so i can have more customizations, i was able to but all Google Apps including Play Store stoped working, does anyone have a clue why is that?
Also i would like a launcher with recents support, i also tried quickswitch but for now lawnchair is not compatible with a13.
Thank you for all your answers.
By the way i installed Systemless Pixel Launcher from Team Files, i will leave the link bellow if someone is interested:
Systemless Pixel Launcher Original - Modified
Systemless Pixel Launcher Original & Modified For Android 13.Original Features:• Well, It's original unmodified one for those roms that doesn't come with pixel launcher by defaultModified...

Yes that does work but i wanted something with recents support.

I'm looking for the same thing, it's agonizing not being able to choose the apps grid from the drawer, and I also don't understand why Lawnchair didn't add support even if it's experimental to android 13

without quickswitch the launcher is poorly integrated into the system, it is preferable to use the stock launcher than a launcher that is blinking because it is conflicting

How to install an iOS theme? [FIXED]

I want to install an iOs Theme because I feel it more fluid, but i noticed they all got removed from the Theme store, searching iOS you can't find anything related, not even icons, or how used to be, my iOS themes i had saved are gone, 've tried to install .mtz third party themes through different apps and they work but after a while they disable by themselves and my phone back to default theme and that's super annoying. My phone is rooted so I ask, there is a way to install an iOs Theme with magisk root or something like that. It seems the mtz themes (apply me ones) through themes store app are not fully working or working right. Or it detects them and disable them

How about substratum or hex?

The solution of this is using MIUI Theme Patcher by Kashi, a module for magisk https://github.com/Mods-Center/Miui_Theme_Mod
Thanks to the ones that tried to help me.
