Pixel System UI? - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The SettingsGoogle and SystemUIGoogle apps from the leaked dumps require Android 7.1 (API 25).
I changed my build.prop to 25 (on Nougat 7.0 really) and attempted to install them- the packages were valid but they had the same package as the existing versions.
If I replaced the system versions with these, could it work? Or does there need to be more work (decompiling/changing the required version to 24/recompiling like was done with the Live earth wallpapers APK) before these will run?
EDIT: Since I changed the build.prop Pixel Launcher (installed as system along with PixelLauncherIcons.apk) crashes on launch, along with Google Keyboard and Clock in certain situations. Reverting the build.prop is not fixing this, and uninstalling PixelLauncherIcons did not affect it either. This might be a problem.

In order to fix the Pixel Launcher issue you will need to reflash the rom.
As for the first issue those system ui apps will most likely have to be decompiled and recompiled like the live earth wallpapers because we are probably missing libs.

I'm running stock Nougat 7.0. What's the issue that requires a reflash?

I don't know exactly what the issue is with it. I was in the same situation as you with the Pixel Launcher where I changed the build.prop and I tried to change the SDK version back to 24 but it kept force closing, so I just reflashed the whole system image and reinstalled the Pixel Launcher through TWRP and it worked again.

Do you think the Pixel systemui.apk could work on a Nexus running 7.1 beta?

I was just going to ask if it would be a good idea to test replacing the system one with it on the 7.1 beta or not

[Q] Calling the Theming experts - Help us, SOS!

This is a cry for help, from me and the other NOOBs out here, new to the theming world with no idea where to begin.
I started out with a problem. I hate the UI on my Note Edge Lollipop, as compared to the stock Lollipop ASOP UI. I started about trying to change the entire UI (icons, menus, fonts, notification drawer, app drawer etc) to stock AOSP Lollipop UI. I am not rooted.
I AM LOST. No idea which guide to follow. Don't want to change my launcher. I would prefer not to root, would prefer not to void my warranty, would just prefer to screw around as less as possible while getting as close to stock Lollipop as possible.
And I know there are others around me. So here I am, on behalf of the noobs, requesting all experts to provide a starting point from where to begin changing the UI - completely, with as little messing around as possible. Not just to AOSP but to any other UI that someone else might prefer. Please explain this to us like we are 3 year olds.
1) Options for those who are Not Rooted.
2) Options for those who are Rooted.
Ps. This will not work if only the experts contribute. Everyone here who has something to contribute please do!
Ps. Mods I looked and searched for days. I know there are guides out there but I wanted something Note Edge and Lollipop specific.
As my contribution. I love the work that this Dev has done for the Note 4. But don't know if this will work on our devices. Also Im not rooted yet.

The new TouchWiz on the S6 has themes. Pray that they port it over to us and any other features it has like they used to do before with those Experience updates during the S3 and Note 2 periods...
Mate, there isn't actually a lot you can do for theming without rooting your device. Most themes replace icons in the system files which is impossible to access without root or without being officially supported by Samsung...
The only real way to theme your un-rooted Note Edge is to change the launcher and theme that...
My wishes seem to have been answered within a week. The new Samsung themes app is all we need. Let's hope we get it fast.

Lollipop Touchwiz Theme
Here is themes app for Lollipop touchwiz http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/themes-apps/touchwiz-theme-lollipop-note-4-t3037891. I tryed and it worked. Just don`t flash the zip (that makes your touchwiz home to FC). Just extract the zip and copy all content of zip`s system folder in your devices system folder as it is in zip, except Toucwiz home. Reboot and all done. Now you can change touchwiz themes as you like

So, does your edge notifications still work?
I tried to get a few things changed but after messing with my system folders I lost all edge notifications...
I also opened the system file, did you realise you're installing Apex launcher onto your Note Edge? I already own the pro version of this. In the System>App folder it actually says Apex Pro meaning this could be considered as Warez, if it actually is the pro version...

Yes, notifications works just fine. And i noticed that Apex launcher too. I deleted it so i doesn`t have any clue is it pro or not. I`m not the developer of this, I just pointed you out how you can use themes

Sense Companion (HTC AI)

All,
The Sense Companion AI and an accompanying APK for an AI Live wallpaper are available on APK Mirror and I've installed them.
The problem is I can't seem to use them. They are installed but there is no options or icons to use them and the live wallpaper isn't selectable. I've tried installing them with package installer, copied to system/app and priv-app...I've matched their permissions as well but I can't seem to use them.
Does it only work with the U Ultra device maybe by particular device name or maybe a different version of Sense Home? Could anyone give their thoughts or perhaps results from trying it out?
Note: I am on Sprint Bad Boyz 3.0 N ROM and have enabled the Google assistant but it's supposed to integrate with the assistant. I'm at a loss.

[Fixed-icon size][Port] Pixel launcher

This is the Port of Pixel launcher for Marshmallow and Lollipop running devices.*
Work's Best on Android One
There are some other Ported versions of Pixel launcher on internet.But this is Different it gives you the feature of adding 5 apps in Dock. [ Which is not available in other Ported​ version]. And the size of icons also resized to give better look.*
FORGET THOSE GIGANTIC TRUCK SIZED ICONS

BTW
I signed the APK with different key, you need to remove all previous versions to be able to install it. Placing it as a system app also enables you Google Now in the left panel.

The first time you try to open the app it will forcefully exits. Give it one minute and try to open it, then it should be working.

Uninstall the pixel launcher with system app remover and install this app.
because the signature is different in this app that's why its conflicting.

A70 UI downgrade

Hello.
A70 android 9.0
UI 1.1
- great fight icons hi.
After the last system update, the Samsung boot screen was updated to version 10.0.35.14
I previously had 10.0.10.46
At 10.46 you could freely modify the screen (even through dpi or grid in the screen settings)
I uninstalled the applications in the Play store, turned off the phone base.
I downloaded the older version I'm interested in and when I try to install, "application not installed" pops up
I want the power to freely modify the screen, appearance and icons. I know that the solution to my problem is this particular application. (Rather its last update)
1. Will anyone tell me how to install an older version of the system application?
2. I don't have root, I didn't mean anything on this phone.
The phone is relatively fresh so it will probably receive updates. It would be nice to keep the updates possible. Is it possible to upload an older version of the system? Does it mean that I won't be able to update later?
Is it enough to do root to install the older UI 10.0.10.46 and install?
Best regards.
You mean the One UI launcher, right?
Just replace it with a better one like Nova Launcher. It'll. Do everything you want

Unless something has changed in my absence. this is not possible since you're lacking required framework.
Simply installing an APK isnt going to work.

You are wrong. Htc sense home working fine on all s10 series. Just download all required apk from https://sourceforge.net/projects/xioami/files/RedmiNote5/
If you face dpi issue then just download latest nodpi version from apkmirror. It should work

I have installed to nova launcher htcWeather and HtcWearherClockWidget apk and workings fine for having htc clock widget and weather working. You need both.
The others i didn't wanted. I tried music widget and some others, didn't working very well.
I think it is better to use nova and htc icons to have a nice result than installing htc launcher.
