[Discussion] Rootless Substratum [Andromeda] for Android Oreo - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

All right, I flashed the latest Open Beta on my OnePlus 5 and even successfully rooted it.
When the Andromeda Project was initially announced, I was very excited to try it out. Now that we finally have Oreo on our beloved OnePlus 3, I thought to try it out.
I followed all the instructions:
Installed Substratum > Installed Andromeda > Installed the Desktop Client and followed the guide completely.
Still, NO LUCK
Any of you guys got any workaround to make this thing work on our OP3? This thread is open to discussing all the possibilities! :highfive:

Yes I got a workaround.
I rooted it.

Even I have rooted bro I am talking about full theming support.. Not just partial support

It works no root

When I installed substratum, it prompted me for root access and I granted it. Guess I shouldn't have. Could you please some screenshots of the themed dialer/settings/quick settings?

Mine not working ?

[Q] Layers Support on Stock Rooted Oxygen

Hello fellow OP3 owners;
I recently rooted my OP3 and am a noob when it comes to Layers. I've only ever used CM theme engine. I'd like to stay on Oxygen until the binaries for dash charging are released.
My question is, does Oxygen support Layers? Now that I am rooted is there anything special I might need to do to get it working?
Anybody with expertise to discuss is appreciated. Hope everyone is enjoying their new device as I am
Cheers!
Just installed layers manager and layers showcase from the play store and it worked. Sweet. It also doesn't trigger the safetynet check so if you are using systemless root, Android pay should still work. The downside though is that many layers on the play store don't list compatibility with the OP3 so many of them are harder to get from the showcase app.
Edit: Should mention I'm on OOS 3.1.2 with systemless SuperSU.

Every theme *should* work but I've noticed most ones that theme the "Framework" have issues such as not booting or rebooting when you get power menu style popups.

xposed now working on tab s3

A modified xposed installer and framework for nougat is now available thanks to the Purify os team and rovo
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-android-nougat-sdk-25-arm64-t3639221
Follow the link above.
1. Make backups, twrp/titanium
2. Install the modified xposed installer first, must be done first!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=13191#downloads
Use the top one on the list it may get updated
3. Next download the modified xposed framework from Purify here
http://fastkit.org/xposed/
Follow the links.... SDK24 for nougat 7.0..... Then download the xposed version 87 model... Flash from twrp
Again make sure you fully back up, it all went fine for me, but sometimes these things don't go right.
Plenty of posts in the linked forum but a bit of a jumble as usual, all with varied results, but the above will work for us.
Not sure how many modules are usable yet, I have one working so I know it does work.
Which are you using, and what would you like to use?

Status bar sleep.. Working
Status bar download progress.... Working (mostly)
Status bar cpu temp.. Not working
Status bar cpu frequency.. Not working
Any of the status bar theming such as wanams xtouchwiz would be good
Also xinternalsd was useful but not working
Can you change aspect ratio yet?

Not something I would normally do, is there a particular module you use for that?
It's been such a long time since I came across this, being able to adjust screen ratio and dpi on a per app basis. No real reason to now but with the 4:3 ratio on this tab, it'll be nice.
Also, been a while since I've used xbosed
does not work for me.. i get a recovery-boot loop and it does not start the system

I have been using it without problem for a while, but the versions used are crucial to success, I couldn't get the magisk systemless to work. Try going back to the beginning and make sure each download is correct, the method in the first post will work.
hmm.. but i need magisk :-/

Get it work with super su but installed OBBonSD does not work (with GTA, KotoR,...). Do you have any idea?
EDIT: Found a solution with http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.pyler.xinternalsd
I have followed the directions exactly and I tried twice to install xposed on my t825 rooted with magisk 14. No luck unfortunately. Has anybody been successful in installing it ??
If yes, could he share the methodology ?

had the same problem.. remove magisk and install superSU.. xposed do not work with magisk -.-' on this tablet..
Question, how do I remove xposed again?
Can I do it with the installer app, or do I need a special skript? Never used Xposed on Samsung before and I know everything works differently.
Hello,
Your experience : Do you have a "" Tab S3 SM-T825, Nougat 7.0, Root SuperSU "" on which you have installed Xposed.
1- Does Xposed work normally with different modules?
(No Bootloop or tablet block?)
2 - Which version xposed * .zip ?
3 - Which Version XposedInstaller _ *. Apk ?
Thank you
Cordially

Fairly old thread this, I have a T820, however I've made roms for both variants, the t825 thread is here,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s3/development/rom-sm-t825-tweaked-t3769742
the earlier versions are nougat the latest 3.0 on are oreo both work fine, you'll find instructions in the thread, if changing to oreo you need to flash the oreo bootloader, through odin, if returning to nougat you need to flash the older nougat bootloader as they're not cross compatible.
Xposed works fine on both, xposed installer included after booting, start the xposed installer app and select install it picks the correct version.
Root is by magisk.

Hello Rorymc
Thanks for the answer and for the link SM-T825 TWEAKED, but I'm already Root with SuperSU + Dm-Verity with Rom ARA2 Nougat 7.0 and I just have to flash Xposed with TWRP.
So, I think I have to take Xposed.zip and Xposedinstaller APK from rovo89 in pure version without add and unmodified ?
I hope I'm not mistaken .....

Yes that's correct, just make sure you get the correct versions, if anything goes wrong just restore your backup.

don't see any problem as i just flashed it on my mi 5 anodroid 7.0 (until my mix 2 arrives from gearbest)
see here for more info.
it should work, at least most of the modules.
Tried flashing all different types of xposed with no luck. This phone needs SDK 25.

I even tried with xposed for miui9 with sdk25, got stuck on booting. So no joy yet.
I was able to boot with the purify SDK 25. It was recognized in Xposed but it was not active.
I tried the official nougat release (88.1), it still says "xposed is installed but not active"

The same on Epic Rom.
I use mokee ROM. Xposed is built in! Amazing rom
Hi Guys,
Tried to install the official SDK 88 to MIUI Epic ROM. Result was : phone booted but XPosed reported that "it is not active".
I then tried to install SolarWarez's version 25 of SDK 87. Result was : bootloop
I even tried to install several other version, like Magisk. No luck.
I really would like to see SolarWarez patching sdk88, but he seems to have vanished.
I think I found a post time ago where SolarWarez explained what he changed to the original patch and it seems it was not a lot.
But I really hope he will show up one day and patch sdk88...

Bluetooth Audio and many more bugs!
I need it for my car.
There are not too many bugs. Just a few like all custom ROMs. I have gravitybox installed and many of those mods work nicely
Hi guys,
After some research, here's what I found out.
It is not possible to use XPosed with MIUI 9 from version 7.9.21 and up.
But Xposed works quite nice with the 7.9.14 version.
You will need to get the specific Xposed for MIUI version offered by PsyMan.
It wil then run and most modules, except the ones requiring a slightly modded GUI will work I think...
Regards.

Ok, so, I gave this a try, but with 7.9.8 (linked in my previous post).
After flashing supersu (or magisk) and the xposed I found here (I'm assuming this is the one you used?)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-miui-9-t3688486
The phone wouldn't boot.
Any suggestions? Did you do anything different?
Any one have a working version of xposed for miui 9?
Can't seem to get a version that boots with 7.10.19.
I' ve a Mi mix 2 with Resurrection Remix 5.8.5, is there a working version of xposed?

substratum doesnt work on oreo

For me substratum themes doesnt work on latest stock. Has anibody same problem?
I think if you google you might be able to find Pixel Oreo wallpaper/launchers that could help you customize it a bit. I just use Pixel wallpapers of Lagos or somewhere that I found a half year ago. I no longer use their customization as I found it lagged things a tad. But that experience was on a past Pixel experience ROM (7.x, I believe) when I then adapter to other custom ROMs.

Substratum not working!

Hey everyone
I just installed the December security patch.
Now that I have installed substratum, I can't find the installed overlays in the Overlay Manager. Tried themes like Swift dark and other themes. It still doesn't work.
Also I've updated the magisk manager to version 18.0 today.
Anyone facing the same issue with their device?
I'm using Pixel 2 XL
SOLVED: New substratum update available on play store.

Substratum is not compatible with the new Magisk 18. As far as I know, a new version is worked on right now. You either have to wait or use Magisk 17.3.

I just can't stand the white pages everywhere; it drives me both blind and crazy, so I'll stick to 17.3 for the time being.
Yeah I can confirm latest Magisk 18 breaks Substratum, so either stay on 17.3 or deal with being blinded by white backgrounds. Tbh I'm really surprised Google hasn't managed to figure out a way to actually turn all white backgrounds either grey or black, Samsung a has actually done it before them with the new OneUI lol
Shame on you Google.

This explains the difficulties I was having getting some overlays to work. Thank you
Try flashing Magisk 18 in the Magisk manager app itself instead of in twrp, I was having problems gaining root until I did that. I'm currently on ver 18 with Substratum working.
There is a new update available for substratum on the Google play. I hope this resolves the issue.
Edit: It's working fine now.

Thats how I installed mine and Substratum still broke.
Anyways that's a moot point now, new Substratum release on Play Store fixes the problem.

Even with Substratum taken out of the equation, I was having problems getting root with Magisk 18 until I flashed within Magisk app and chose recommended install option.
I'm on December update, have latest substratum after fresh install of latest update from Google. Magisk 17.1
I can compile a theme and they all show. When I restart and then try and change overlay state, it tells me to compile first ??!! Any idea
