So I just upgraded to 7.1.1 and am running twrp rc1 and rooted with sr5.
Has anyone had success installing blackout apps? I've tried flashing calender, duo, and YouTube, but none of them work. I made sure updates were uninstalled or the app was deleted before flashing through twrp and it still doesn't work.
I am doing that very same thing and like Micmars told me,,,,most of these apps you have to extract from the zip and place in their respective folders, set permissions and reboot,,,,only ones I am having a problem with is calendar and inbox,,,everything else works.

I tried installing these and they would just make apps fc. Then I applied Substratum theme and bricked. Had to restore to factory image..

Far as I know swift black is the only one that works
I'm running Swift Black Substratum on 7.1.1. The theme engine is easy to use and works off stock apps. No need to install theme ready gapps.

Thanks for the info. It's funny because I tried using Substratum a few weeks ago and it wasn't ready for the Pixel so I got stuck in a bootloop and had reflash my phone at 2am. So glad it works now. Thanks again!

if you got twrp installed and get bootloop go to twrp mount vender then go to advanced and file explorer and delete sub from there and your phone will boot just fine

Make sure you pick 7.1.1 Pixel in Substratum when applying the theme and the theme has to support 7.1.1.

Going to try it, thanks. I knew it was just a matter of time.
I have to get updated to 7.1.1 first but that's no big deal.
Yeah I was able to get it installed....works well. Had some random FC of system UI.....but other than that.....running pretty smooth. Black and Dark are both 7.1.1 compatible

Did you select Pixel 7_1 for the "android theme" before applying?

Should look like this just before selecting "installing selected" and reboot occurs.

Not in this order. Rebooted and still didn't stick.

It looks like the official Xposed has been released for 7.1.x. It doesn't look like people have gotten it to work with Pixel (XL) though. Has anyone tried?
I'm using Pure Nexus 7.1.2 with Magisk 14.2 and I am unable to get the new Xposed to work. Has anyone tried it with a stock rom?
Yea , i tried and it didnt work . I am not on stock , i am using PN.
i read in the xposed thread that many people tried it on the pixel xl and not working.
when i tried to flash the framework it gave me an error about mounting system.
check this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74089419&postcount=375
Edit : i installed it using the app and it worked !
I'm using PN latest , and managed to get it working using Flashfire.
Use Flashfire to install the ARM64 (v88) zip. Just make sure you select Auto-Mount in Flashfire when you have selected that zip.
When you've rebooted, install the Xposed 3.1.2 app.
I've only tried Youtube adaway, and that is working fine. I know a lot of modules need to be updated for Nougat.
I'm using SuperSu 2.82 SR5, I'm not sure this installation method will work using Magisk.
Works fine from the App just click the install button and select install when it's finished reboot

Multiple accent colours and backgrounds including transparent. (I'm using Silver accent).

I was having trouble with it so I installed the systemless Magisk one from here (you need their version of the Xposed installer for it to work)

Isn't that unofficial xposed? I tried that a couple weeks ago before the official version came out and it wouldn't work for me. Ended up getting rid of magisk and getting supersu and then using the xposed installer to install xposed.
Hi,
I just sideloaded 8.1 (coming from 8.0). Things went smoothly and in the recovery mode, my phone is now listed as 8.1.
My problem is that whenever I try to go on settings now, it always crashes. I did attempt to redownload the OTA and sideload it again, but that still didn't help. I'm not sure what I did wrong...
Solved: Never mind I was an idiot. Forgot that I had substranum theme on, and it didn't play well with 8.1

Hey thanks for trying to help but I figured it out. I forgot that I had substratum theme installed. That didn't like 8.1 apparently. I uninstalled it and it's working fine now

I believe you need to reboot and then enable the overlays again from what read somewhere on these threads.

Wolfeyes30 is correct. On stock rooted, it's best to compile(build and update) 3-4 overlays at a time. You likely won't see them in the manager menu until after you reboot. Then go back to the substratum manager and enable them :good:

Hi folks,
I have some apps that I am using that are not compatible with Pie yet and I do not want to update.
How can i make sure I don't update until i'm ready?
Thanks.
well, beyond simply not installing the update, go to developer options and turn off 'Automatic system updates'.

You can if your fully bootloader unlocked, and do a clean fastboot installation of 8.1. And yes, your phone will need to be wiped :good:
