Get full Android pie look and fell on stock android 5.0 to 8.0 [Rootless] - Huawei Y5 (2017) Themes, Apps, and Mods

I'll list here a group of apps that will help you get full android pie feel and look Root isn't needed but it help in a couple of ways in wish I'll explain later​
First: Notification Drawer.
app: power shade ------(removed from the store just after the phone permission restriction from Google as it uses it to be able to toggle the mobile data)
Update: re-added to the store after resubmission with compliant code changes
Root needed? > only to toggle mobile data, location services, etc so it opens the settings page for you. You can grant it root access though to control these settings
Function: replace the weird ugly looking quick drawer and notification by android pie one plus the ability to reply from notification and notification collection and of course editable quick styles
Recommended: disable on full screen if you Game a lot
Second : navigation.
there are two options here
first xda's navigation drawer​second fluid navigation​Root needed? > not really as both can be up and running with simple adb command if no root is available
Function: Get full-screen real estate from this 5" screen
for me I like fluid navigation more it has cool animations and actions that are not premium, but of course, it's your choice
Third : touch of beauty
app: Round corners
Root needed? > Null
Function: Round the corners of the screen, it may not look that appealing at first glance but just try it then give your opinion.
Forth volume buttons.
app: app: VolumePie
Root needed? > Null
Function: Change volume control to the side
Recommended: use the pro version as it has the ability to move the layout to the upper right (where volume buttons are) and some cool themes too
Bonus
this Bonus may need root but it's a bonus though not necessary but counted
Xposed module called flat style indicator
Function: change status bar icons, places, and colors.
at the end Don't forget to thanks, hope I helped you.

Cool! The one thing I missed from my Wimmobile days is that I can switch between apps quickly by pressing the icons on the notification bar(Taskbar?). As shown on below page. Strange that nobody had done that on android. This is the next best thing!
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-wktask-v1-1-7-3b.html
Will be even better if there is an option to adjust the width of the "windows" to make it less obtrusive.
Thanks!
Some suggestion/issue:
1. Can you make small apps to have transparent background always? After you select one of the task, the small app background stay opaque until you tap the running application.
2. Is it possible to have button to minimise the small app into floating small icons? (similar to selecting minimise from the notification windows)
3. I don't know whether this is by design, but when you open up the phone application and then touch back button, it will remove it from the small app. If you open up the task swithcer however, it will still listed phone app as the most recent one.
PS: Love your mod for Xperia Ray (I still used your system ui mod for ray) :good:

1. Well if i can override the theme of sony small app built in theme it should be possible.
2. It is possible but it will take a space if i put it just like that into the header. Unless i make it as horizontal list (which need some time to try).
3. Yes it was my intention to remove all closed app from the menu. In the stock Android setting, the Recent Apps will always store the closed application, so the next time you open it, it will not move the existing task to the front, but start a new activity for it. What i did was to remove all the closed apps, so to reduce the recent apps number there. But that's a good suggestion, i might add an option to fix that.

New Version 1.6.0 is uploaded! Changelog:
1. Added custom UI and transparency
2. New UI options
3. Added Option to view all Recent Apps just like the stock Recent App contain.
Ps: the UI in fact can be docked to the edge of your screen as i found out. Just double tap the move button and then drag it into the near edge of the screen, preferably at the right
Edit: It is recommended to turn on showing running apps. There are some undetected bugs with some Google apps of you leave it unchecked. Will inspect later. In the mean time stay with showing Running Apps only.
1.6.5 uploaded! Changelog:
1. UI tweak

@hansip87
kinda offtopic question this but how do you get those 6 icons next to eachother here?:

What features would you like to see in Lineage that CM didn't have?

Use this thread to suggest features that weren't in CyanogenMOD that you'd like to see in Lineage.
Parenthesized text in italic are my comments regarding the suggestion.
Suggested Features
Built-in system cleaner
Device: request the PIN once a day
Extra support for smart cards
Disable root icon for specific apps
Display network speed in status bar (see EDIT below)
Incremental updates (OP note: this could be handy)
Better app lock (CM had Protected Apps but you can bypass them by clicking on a notification, and you can only lock them with a pattern)
A bunch of features to include in the default launcher
Built in Package Disabler (I think you can just disable the app in the Settings?)
Battery bar
Use substratum theme engine (or at least have better support for it)
Free RAM overview in Recents
Allow any app to run in background

Stock launcher experience, with more customization options

WebDAV (CardDAV, CalDAV) sync options

Built-in support for OpenVPN
Autolock phone after call end
Adreno idler
Live Display for all phones (I don't think that's possible because of the sensors each phone has)
Reverse portrait mode
Ship ROM with no apps installed; let the user choose his apps (bit skeptical about this one, maybe we could customize what packages we'd want in our ROM before downloading it?)
WiFi band selection (was removed in Nougat)
Caffeine quick tile (http://lineageos.org/Last-Week-in-LineageOS-5/)
Change DPI settings per app (have different DPIs for different apps)
Better permission handling
Custom date format in status bar
Advanced call blocker and recorder (the latter would be neat to have)
Record voice calls with Voice Recorder app
Backup and restore LineageOS settings (maybe the user could choose where he wants to save the backup file?)
GNURoot Debian support
Gello: update to Chromium v50+ (see EDIT below)
Gello: allow users to choose their download location
Music: add Folder View option
Trebuchet: notification count badge that works like TeslaUnread
Ability to manage certificates
MAC address spoofing
Dialer: option to choose SIM while calling, and to set what SIM to use for each contact
Support for Cisco AnyConnect SSL VPN protocol
Add behaviors for double press, triple press on Home, Back and Overview buttons

CMUpdater: option to flash additional zips
Add "flip to turn off alarm" gesture

Option to set different ringtones for different SIMs in dual-SIM phones

Solid color wallpapers
Toggle ticker or heads-up notifications
Spam filter for SMS app
Support for EAP SIM protocol to use Mobile Carriers networks

EDIT2: I'm not, in any way, affiliated with LineageOS (nor am I an official developer). I'm a community member just like you are
Android in general needs a system cleaner. Like CCleaner and others. Something like that would be good.
Change logs should be listed in the system update tool.
The system update tool should show at least a week of older updates as well as the current available updates. For example if I am running cm14.1 12-12-16 and I check for updates it will not show 12-6-16, only newer updates. Some updates contain bugs that may be missed for days. I usually delete old updates because it uses up space on my device with limited space. I updated to the latest cm14.1 two days ago and my data service was broken. The website no longer listed cm updates for me to find and I could not downgrade, I'm running aicp because I couldn't downgrade BC I usually delete updates that are older.

I'll start this discussion by suggesting two things:
substratum theme engine as default (or at least full compatibility with it)
use a PIN or password to unlock Protected Apps (right now you must use a pattern)
Just suggest what would you like to see in Lineage, preferably things that weren't included in CM.

Honestly, I'd prefer if they just use the CM Theme Engine. I already invested in that.

Theme engine since cm 14.1 doesn't have one.
TWRP recovery
Scheduled full backup of LineageOS modified OS settings (Live Display, Battery meter, time settings, WiFi passwords, status bar quick access configs etc) and apps with their data to Google Drive, so the user can wipe the phone or pick up a new one and restore everything from Google Drive.
Okay, I guess I find I'm slowly turning into more and more of a scientist and so I come up with really whacky theories and really whacky ideas of things to try. I'm knowledgeable about security practices, so some things I'd like to see... (I've been on Android 5, so it is possible at least one of these was already added to 7)
Add the ability to make LineageOS demand the device password (or PIN) once per day. Fingerprint readers are handy for quick lock/unlock, but your fingerprints are readily available. If one was to end up in state custody you likely don't want them to access your private data. As such, I'd like the ability for devices to lock once per day and require the password (or PIN) to unlock.
Include some extra support for smart-cards. One neat thing about smart-cards is they're rather more difficult to tamper with than normal data on a phone. If one's phone ended up in the hands of authorities and they really wanted to unlock it, they'd be able to get at the hashes in flash-memory. If the key for encrypting the userdata area was instead stored on a smart-card, they have a great deal more difficulty getting at it.
It would also be interesting to support OpenPGP cards and using a olde phone as an extra layer of security protecting one's PGP keys.
Okay, hopefully not too whacky for you.
The ability to roll back updates, (I know you can always take backups, but those take forever.)
- The old jellybean tablet ui for tablets.
- Assuming it's going back to it's roots as an os for enthusiasts, rather than a mainstream os, I'd like to see trickstermod type settings built in again.
- If means income to support development, I wouldn't be opposed to them following through on the miui business model they flirted with of having a cutting edge theme engine and a proprietary paid theme store.
Some way to disable the root notification icon per app.
Network speed display on the status bar
Double tap to wake!!!! I don't want to use my hardware buttons more than I have to. Cut down on physical wear.

Yeah just like many did with Windows 10. ??
Desired LineageOS features that were not in CM?
1) Samsung's Smart Stay feature
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00047864/
2) Ambient Display/Moto Active Display feature
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TyhaOjME5g
3) The ability to increase the size of all icons and text e.g. like in Nova Launcher
4) Lock screen weather animation(e.g. Like in the LG G3)
5) Double tap to wake and sleep, and Knock code
6) "Doze - For Better Battery Life" functionality with a whitelist feature
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.yirgalab.dzzz&hl=en
7) A Package Disabler app feature that can disable any application
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ospolice.packagedisablerpro&hl=en
8) A reliable custom ROM installer that supports a large variety of Android devices
9) Stickers and themes for the native SMS application
10) When you downloaded a new CM ROM upgrade(e.g. a nightly), you had to reboot into TWRP and manually select the ROM file to install it.
LineageOS ROM upgrades should function like regular OTA upgrades do i.e. you download it, choose install, it reboots your phone and
it automatically applies the upgrade(i.e. no hunting down the appropriate zip file)
P.S. The appropriate version of GApps should automatically be installed too if GApps was present before the upgrade!
11) A parallax effect option for any wallpaper(e.g. in the Samsung Galaxy S6)
12) Counters/badges for unread emails, missed voicemails, calls & SMS/MMS messages
13) A native HTML email client(as opposed to plain text). I should be able to click on urls in emails. Phone numbers in emails should
launch the phone dialer
14) A calendar icon that shows the current date on the home screen calendar icon
15) A voicemail-to-text feature
16) A chatheads option for the SMS app
17) A shortcut to install gApps
A superuser more in line with SuperSu, so no apps bork because no "SuperSu" even though device is rooted.
Perhaps phh's SuperUser/ OpenSource SELinux-capable SuperUser?

Thanks for the app! I have been looking for a quick setting to turn on NFC since I upgraded my OP3 to the Pixel XL. Looks promising

Hey guys, I've been using this app for a while and following another thread for it. I can say this is an awesome app with a great dev that will, and does, support 100% if your request is possible.

Rounded Corners & Screen Filter now cover the devices navigation bar.
All number pickers changed to SeekBar dialogues.
Lots of bugs squashed
Wow, seems very cool and useful. Glad to see the guy who developped the best roms on my hold Htc develop some apps now.

Well, after some testings, must say that it looks like the best custom tiles app. More options than the others, simple and useful.
If I may suggest two things:
1. Would be cool if when we click on the location mode tiles, it switch modes. For now, when I click on it, it just opens the position app from Android and I have to change mode from there.
2. Maybe there could be a toggle to collapase some options or organize things in smaller categories. It's great to have all those options, but it's easy to get lost in them.
So that's it. I didn't test everything, my Pixel is my first phone that I don't want to root since my htc Legend...
Going to give a couple of $ in the coming days and go premium.

Really appreciate the feedback buddy!
1. If you enable Settings secure access, the location mode tile will change between the 4 location modes in the system (off, device only, battery saving & high accuracy, these can also be customised under configure tiles so you can select just 2 or 3. (No root required, just a simple adb command)
2. I am in the process of re working the UI but it's a very big rebuild, so it's going to take a little time
Thanks
Lee

I'll x2 the UI interface. Just thought I'd drop in. I haven't noticed any issues myself everything is working good with lots of features which is great but the UI in the app was a bit confusing at first but I was able to get the hang of it after reviewing. Working great so far

Cheers for the feedback bud... Trying to figure out a simpler way of doing it, not an easy task with so many possible options

Question Gripes with XIaomi's software limitations, anyone can help?

Hi guys,
I bought a Xiaomi 13 Pro recently for battery life and camera and I'm certainly happy with it! However, coming from an AOSP-ish experience I can't help but feeling very frustrated with the UI/UX of MIUI so far, setting up my new phone, especially:
1. Not being able to use full-frame gestures on third party launchers
2. The app manager cleaning my widget apps when I clean apps forcing them to close and not refresh widgets before I reload the app + reload the widget
3. Having to set up manually lockscreen notifications for every sub category of notifications within each and every app - by default, apps will not show lockscreen notifications and when the general toggle within the notification menu is switched on, I have to go into each notification subcategory to re-confirm my setting of actually having this notification show on the lockscreen in a secondary toggle - is there any way ALL can be selected to show on lockscreen = ON by default?
4. Lockscreen notifications disappearing when I unlock the screen once
5. Some apps just not working at all, like Tiktok (I'll write a different post on it)
6. Unnecessary bloatware I don't need
If you have any workarounds for any of these issues or know how to get something as close as AOSP as possible that would be very much appreciated, as much as I love the hardware of this phone, the software is difficult to manage and I don't want to end up selling the phone!
Thank you so much

***For this it's actually the app that can't connect to the internet, not the notifications. Nothing seems to be unlocking like if an invisible firewall was blocking the app.
