Substratum on Galaxy A8+ - Samsung Galaxy A8+ (2018) Themes, Apps, and Mods

Substratum on Galaxy A8+​Since Substratum can run on Nougat powered Samsung devices , I thought of writing a guide inspired from a previous port on this by Substratum Development Leader , Feel free to check the original one.
ATTENTION: You can't run Substratum without the addon, Galaxy A8+ (2018) requires Sungstratum addon, so you must get the addon app!
How to apply Substratum themes :
1.First, Download a theme that doesn't rely on Android System or theme ready Google Apps (i.e Swift Dark etc.,)
2.Once you install the theme, Substratum will throw a notification saying that a new theme has been installed.
3.Open the theme in Substratum and click on the app (one at a time for now only) and click the button on the bottom right.
4.Click Install and let it compile. It will ask to install several APKs to your device. Install all of them.
5. Reboot the device.
Warning : It is HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended NOT to apply Android System and SystemUI elements as of yet UNLESS your theme supports it and shows "dangerous overlays" by default. For themers, all you have to do is set @bool/ThemeSupportSamsung to true.
Current Issues :
-Samsung Keyboard doesn't go well with Swift Themes
-Do not update Substratum after you install the add-on ( As it somehow makes Substratum not detect Sungstratum addon)
How to recover if something mess up?
1.You will have to boot up in Safe Mode (comes default on every device)
2.Reboot your device and hold down the Volume Down key while booting up
3.You are now in Safe Mode. Go into Settings -> Apps, then find the overlay you think is messing up and uninstall!
How to recover if the above doesn't work? (Credits to Evozi)
1.You will have to boot up in Safe Mode (comes default on every device)
2.Turn on screen and press power button. It will show "Shutdown", "Restart", "Emergency Mode"Turn on "Emergency Mode", keep spam the checkbox so you can tick the checkbox to proceed the agreement.
3.While you are in emergency mode, you have very limited access. Open any system app and go to recent task list.
4.Long press the app task, press the info icon and app detail page will appear.Hit the back button and it will show your whole app list.
5.Find your overlay and remove all its storage and phone permissions.
6.Deactivate Emergency Mode and now you are back to TouchWiz.Uninstall the overlay app.
Tested Themes as of now in Galaxy A8+ (2018) :
1.Swift Dark
2.Swift for Samsung

Oreo Users have to buy Andromeda plugin.

How can we download andromeda for free? Because Substratum isn't working without Andromeda.

Layers Theme For Xperia 5.0+

Here is the method to install Layers Theme on your Xperia Smartphone :
Don't Blame Me If Anything Goes Wrong
I Have Tested It On My Phone And It Works Pretty Well
Under Any Circumstances Whatsoever I Am Not Responsible For Any Loss Of Data,
Dead SD cards , Thermonuclear War , etc.( most of the other developers say this )
Prerequisite :
#Rooted Xperia
#Running 5.0+
#Latest Version Of BusyBox Installed
#A Nandroid Backup (Just For Precaution)
1) Goto Playstore and install Layers Manager App
2) Goto Playstore and search for layers theme and choose any theme you like
3)Open Layers Manager App and give #Root permission
4)Goto Settings and check on unnecessary overlays(optional)
5)Goto main home of app and choose the theme
6)Apply your favorite overlays and Reboot
NOTE####:
1} Before applying any new overlays first uninstall the previous ones
2}You have to be on stock Xperia lollipop themes for navbar buttons to change according to Layers theme since the Xperia theme engine also uses the same technology of RR Overlay which layers use.Hence if you will apply any other Xperia theme other than stock, it will create another overlay upon it and you won't be able to see the nav bar buttons from LAYERS THEME
3} It doesnt have full support for xperia apps . hence some of the elements will have buggy appearance
4} For Best Experience install GOOGLE APPS coz its what the layers themes have been made for
6} FC's or bootloops occuring after applying overlays may be due to bad overlays.So always take a nandroid backup before messing up with your phone
7} FC's occuring after uninstalling overlays can be easily solved by a reboot
8} For those who are stuck after pressing reboot , Please remove your battery and reinsert it (if its removable) or Press the force reset or shutdown button. (Generally Xperia phones have them on the back of their phones under the panel)

Stock Android notification icons on Sprint S7/S7 Edge

THIS NOW WORKS ON EVERY MODEL! (G935U/A/T/V)
What You Need:
Substratum
Samsung Add-on for Substratum (NOT FREE)
PLAY STORE LINK: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ohayoubaka.statusbarsamsung&hl=en
Made by: ohayoubaka (telegram user)
(I found this Icon from sungstratum telegram group. Here's the link if you want more information:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum....tum/7-0-substratum-sex-tw-beta-t3620796/amp/*)
STEPS:
** Install Substratum and Samsung Substratum Add-on from Playstore.
Download and Install the APK above.
Open up substratum and go to theme packs.
You should see "Status Bar for Samsung"
Select it and and check System UI Status Bar Icons. I'd recommend AOSP Stock Colors (NON S8).
Click the pink button on the bottom and Install selected.
Install it and reboot!
Profit.
If you have problems after rebooting. Try to shut the phone down and reboot to safe mode by holding the volume down key. Then uninstall the overlay via Application Management
posted this on /r/galaxys7 since some users asked me how I did it. I'd like to share it here too.

tested by me on One Plus Nord - Working like charm!
It's working only the clock style is not change I have word now but when I select default it stays at word??
Any idea if i can get it working on non-rooted Nord? :?
There is no way to make it working un-rooted. This modify your system app system UI and there is no way without root permission. Why just not unlock bootloader and flash new boot image ..?? ?
