yeah, will changing the build.prop affect my device with my other apps? or in the future of downloading new apps?

Thanks a lot man :good:, another thing, will changing this have any other impact on my device? Can/should I change it back or does it just not matter?
thanks again :good:

it SHOULDNT matter guys.....but this will block OTA's from updating and stuff, so if that is important to you.
but always make a backup of the build.prop just to be sure. once FB home is available to EVERYONE, i would change it back just to be safe....but again, it shouldn't mess with anything else. most apps are available on the Note 2, so it shouldn't be a problem.

it may have a minor effect on apps that are for the Gnex or Note only in the market, but you should not see much of an issue

Worked great, but I have 1 problem...Notifications don't seem to be working... anyone else with this issue?

...did that build.prop edit and after reboot rom doesn't boot, stuck at bootlogo for about 5 mins now. good thing I made a rom backup yesterday.
Tried facebook messenger first when it was updated and chat heads don't work, anyone know why ?

So far it's been alright. Sending regular sms have been hit or miss. Sometimes they send but sometimes they don't on GNEX

Changed build prop and still says device isn't supported :/ Tried changing to a GS3 as well, not luck either.
Does it matter if parts of the build prop mentions toro/tuna? Or does the rom I'm using matter?

Uninstall and reinstall FB Home. You have to have your build.prop changed prior to the installation of the FB Home app.

I've tried twice to install and at first everything works just fine then I start getting FC on Google Now running NOS 2.0. Going to try cm10.2 and try it that way.

Have you installed the lib file into the lib directory? I have it working on NOS. I had the same problem but I changed the lib file from rw-rw-r-r to
rw-r-r-r now it works like a charm. I used root browser. Give it a shot!
EDIT: Ooops I missed your edit. Changing the language worked as a temporary fix for me for awhile, changing the lib files permissions fixed in permanently.

Everything is working except the ability to start voice search by saying OK Google. Is it working for everyone else? Works on my N7

You do have to flash the new Google Service which is in one of the 3 APK's in the above download link. If you don't flash that if will prompt you to update each time launching GN.

Just tried... If you simply extract the two apk from the zip you can install them with no issues at all... (I prefer it from flashing...)
The Contact apk is the same as you can find on Play Store, while the Telephone apk is a (lot) newer version than that available on Play Store... Thanx a lot! :highfive:
EDIT: wrong! No problem with contacts, it can be downloaded and installed from Play Store too... BUT Telephone refused to install on Z while installed fine on another MM I use... I'll investigate more on this issue...

Ok, it's possible to install single apks BUT it's needed to install jar & permissions file (& reboot before...) so, for newbies is probably better to simple flash the zip (that is ok, I've cheched...)
Main difference is that flashing after the apps can't simply be uninstalled but become part of the system since they are put in priv-apps... (ok, they can be freezer or removed by a root file manager anyway...)
I'm using it anyway... small differencies for contacts, a lot more (and interesting...!) for dialer...

There's a modded apk here, somewhere, but the problem becomes the caller id functions don't work as it needs to be signed by Google to use the correct APIs. So unless Google messes up like they did with 2.05_rc4 we'll never have an "simple apk" version.

I saw. Already installed as I said... They need the .jar and .xml of permissions ...
Anyway, the dialer is a *major* upgrade, not only a "cosmetic" one... It is a newer version than the one released with Aosp Nougat 7.1 and beneath there are some newer versions too, it is the newer one working on MM too (the others need at least v. 7.0 to work...)

Nope, it doesn't work with stock android nougat on my moto z xt1650-03, retailmx. After the restart the phone wasn't able to open, not a single app was able to recover my phone app; so I applied my TWRP backup and tried again, same result. So I decided to make it work because I didn't want to delete everything again so, this is what I did:
Make sure to flash the zip, and if you can use your phone anymore, don't panic like me...
1. Erase the app via Titanium Backup pro
2. Restart the phone
3. Go to the file explorer, find the zip of the nougatdialer and extract the dialer apk
4. install it like a normal app and voila!
5. grant permissions if needed.

I think the normal apk should work on nougat.
If not here's the nougat zip:

Fonts

Here are a few font modules if you're interested. Most came from this thread. Go there to see examples:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/themes/fonts-flashable-zips-t3219827
If you find or have any other fonts just replace the ones from one of these modules (vrtheme/system/fonts).

Thanks been waiting for something like this.

Works good except the clock on the lockscreen is kinda weird instead of it being like 1:05 it'll be 1X05

Ah gotcha

Thanks for the Google Sans, I had the same problem as @thatsupnow with that font but I used the one on the magisk repo and even contacted the dev.
The one on this thread works great on my normal 3a (sargo)

@Tulsadiver Just asked this in your accents tgread but forgot I also use this mod. Anyway to make it work without rooting. As I said in other thread this mod and the accents are the only reasons I load magisk so if i could like adb push them or something then I woudnt have to reload magisk ever month after updates and could likely even take direct ota updates.

This takes root and magisk is the only way

As stated above i have added my own font and everything is working great... Is there a way to change the middle name so it will include the funny name.
Maybe Tulsadivers Mods for Pixel (Rosemary) in my case. Not sure what file to edit to change the name or if it's not that easy.
Great work now using both mods as daily driver requirement.

How to get Theme Store and other apps that do not come with EU phone version.(Root)

I found a way to get theme store and other apps that come with other region phone versions but you need to have root.This is for EU phone, I do not know if this work on other phones versions .Also I am on Realme ui c28 version .
The apps are installed but hidden, the apps that this give are theme store, google phone, google contacts, google messages and app market. It also unlock call recording . I bet that you can add only several of them but because I can freeze or uninstall them later I did not continue to find a way to do it. I recommend to do this to this after installing stock rom or after doing factory reset as at first I think that it did not work for me, maybe because I tried to install many versions of themes apk.
Instructions
1.You need to download any file explorer that can access system folder, I used root explorer (paid app)
2.You need to go to /system/etc/oppoRegionMarkFeatures and copy com.oppo.regionmark.EUEX.xml and com.oppo.regionmark.RU.xml to internal storage in case that you want to revert this change .
3.Delete com.oppo.regionmark.EUEX.xml on /system/etc/oppoReginMarkFatures and rename com.oppo.regionmark.RU.xml to com.oppo.regionmark.EUEX.xml .
4.You need to go to /system/etc/ and copy the blacklist folder to internal storage in case that you want to revert this change.
5.You need to go to /system/etc/ and delete the folder blacklist .
6.Reboot the phone .
7.you need to go to setting and now you see on the top under search, sign in or something similar, click on it and register an account. Then you can go to setting, then click on "home screen & lock screen magazine", scroll down and you will see "Set Theme ."
8.Now you can select any theme you want and hit apply. The themes that you see is based on the region that you set the phone to, you can select India and reboot the phone and you will see other themes, most of them cost money but if you search free, you will see a free ones . You can also find a guides of how to install a paid themes for more then 5 minutes free trial .

Will the replacement of EUEX with RU create any problems?
I tried your procedure and it worked, but I reverted it waiting for your answer.
By the way, the themes will affect only stock launcher, right? Not the system interface, or am I wrong?

I do not think that it will crate any problem, I am on c28 and all work as before, nothing is removed, only added .The EUEX (Europa) has restriction that that Russia does not, It just easier to rename the files and not need to download any other files. Also can you tell me what firmware you are ? I want to confirm if it work on any other firmware other then c28 as I think that they change some files .Here is a link to download the blacklist folder - https://mega.nz/file/EM0lhLgZ#dqHsIf8LlfJmWzvbCTAxwmBAJuoIvL1EYD86p6yuoAg
The Theme can affect the system interface, notification panel but not all do it, most do not.

Hi. I'm on C.28 downloaded from European site.
And thank you for blacklist folder. Now I'll add files again. Except for app manager I'm not interested in the other apps. And of the themes I tried none was interesting.
But your method is amazing. And I can confirm the whole morning I haven't had a single problem.

I do not mind that you translate or share this guide, just do not forgot to write that it work on c28 and this is not tested on other versions. I once tried to do it on c27 and it did not work but I edit some other files before, so maybe it cause the theme store to have problems applying themes.

Hi, this does not work on RUI 2.0 F.14. Do you have another steps to perform so i can unlock the hidden apps?
