My customized Nexus 7

I just wanted to share what I've done with my Nexus.
The video was made using SCR: https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Iwo Banas&hl=en
I've modified the Google Play edition S4/One's bootanimation (logo and .zip available at the bottom)
I'm using Light Grid Pro for my wallpaper. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joko.lightgridpro&hl=en
Here's the theme share link:http://com.joko.lgt/5c0j7e7408p34cga085lq34q1k00s7gf0c8004hs2cu1a1ou6chhpvnv (import function kinda works, you might have to try a few times)
The Android blue color is #33b8e4 by the way.
I'm using Xperia Launcher 2.0.5b (2.0.6 must be the same): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2103403
It is limited to only 4 dock items but is otherwise highly customizable, rock solid and filled with features nice touches I can't find anywhere else.
I love the Xperia launcher Weather widget (it's nicely animated) and I've been using the MIUI weather app, also fully animated: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsInByby5idXJnZXJ6LndlYXRoZXIiXQ
I'm using the Xperia Album (5.2.A.0.6) and Walkman (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39451002) apps . Both work partially/crash sometimes because 4.3 Xperia is not out yet, but they do look good.
Finally, I'm using Viral for floating videos: https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Mata and GoogleEars/SoundSearch 1.17 which works in Canada even though we don't have Google Music yet (can't find where I got the apk though)
Of course it's all based on TheMrcool212's excellent PA 3.99 RC2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2446576
Don't hesitate to suggest other interesting alternatives. Of course I take no credit for all the wonderful apps/mods I'm mentioning here.
320 views and no replies. Some cool mods you got man. I guess everyone is only caring about the kitkat release threads. Been using viral for a while here too. It dont look as nice as the offical youtube but i like the floating video feature.

No offense, and I don't mean it in a bad way but I think is mostly because there's already a thread for us to show our Nexus 7 themes. That's my thought, I could be wrong.

Focused Lollilop 5.X.X Thread
[QUESTION]
Copied from here
Oh ya,.. Devs, to be more focused about this Android Lollipop 5.X.X and as the ROM and bugs are still the same source, should we have to closed 5.0.2 (CM12) thread... ??
So the development will be continued from what have CM12 left (?). Might you or other want to explain/talk about this?
Is there a free dark theme for cm 12.1? I failed to find one in play store. My current favorite is Euphoria Dark but its not entirely compatible with 12.1 . In dialer app, call with menu gets white background and text. The only thing I can't get used to in Lollipop is its too white theme ... even in settings !

I don't get it! Why fix something that isn't broken? Just to be different? Specially on smartphones, dark background is proven to be most useful and suitable. Its good for eyes, good for battery and good for display itself. Well we all knew that no matter how sweet lollipop is it always comes with a stick lol

ISO sensitivity not working in camera.
The ISO sensitivity is not (rarely) working in camera (Tested by different apps like camera fv-5, open camera, mi's ported camera etc) some calibration problem maybe?
Also idk if it's just placebo but i think camera quality was better in stock miui.
anyway i hope it's just a placebo, and the iso setting will be patched soon.
Issue
I have two SIM cards inserted in my phone.
When I try importing from SIM 2, it shows me list of contacts of SIM 1.
How can I fix this?

[REQUEST] Latest Stock Lollipop Full Black UI: it's possible?

Hi,
I'm ask here a thing: it's possible on the latest stock lollipop ROM by Sony 14.6.A.1.236 rooted to have the full black UI for System UI (Settings, call, message...)
Because I'm true annoied by the white of lollipop, and since the "night" mode isn't available on 5.1.1 , there is a way to obtain something similar?
I've inverted some screenshots from my phone for example (attached below) in my opinion true black it's wonderful for settings, phone UI and so on...
tell me which are yours opinions...and if there is a way to obtain this.
Long ago i flashed a zip you have to look for yourself.

Dark res by Xperienced - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2642634
Be aware: 1) options in thread for stock nav bar or 4 button, 2) white borders around dialog boxes, (I didn't like, so I replaced with apktool), 3) some instances where you get light-on-white text, (you can fix if you know what files to change).

Nothing wrong with giving someone a push. It's not lazy to ask for help, but when you get it, use it... It's good to give that benefit of the doubt at first.

The spirit of a forum, first of all, is to give support.
In any case, when a person answers someone, it's because he thinks he can help that user... and the same is when one guy asks a question here.
Even though trivial, even if stupid, if one wants answers, helps a person that have dubt.
For years I have joined this forum, it's the perfect place to start from scratch and can always find someone who responds and helps you.
When I can, I do the same. If I know something, I answer and share. Because knowledge need to be shared.
Regarding this question about dark mod in particular, I was allowed to open a thread because I wanted to do a bit of clarity on this: there are several open threads, but with regard to the various problems or encounter glich graphics, are scattered in various discussions, and for me dispersive.
About your MOD, I saw that you updated the OP, and therefore the fact that it is compatible with the latest system update. So, thank you very much for this.
On KK, I use a xperia theme that do the magic by <i>Emperor.dk</i> (according with SuperUser MOD) that work very well.
For Lollipop, the situation it's more complex...for this I wonder if at present, it was possible to do the same with Lollipop.

Exactly
In any case, Thank you as always for all the availability and responsiveness. Thanks so much.
It would be nice if we could bring to Lollipop 5.1.1 the possibility of the "night mode" ... for me it would be wonderful.:fingers-crossed:
thank you all for the effort you put, the effort and the work to achieve all the MODs who are happy to use.:good:

Has anyone tried Substratum w/Andromeda plugin after Oreo update?

Well, that's the question. I'm gathering some credits trough Google Rewards and i'm pretty interested in buying the Substratum extension made for Android Oreo. But first i want to know if someone has tried the app in this phone to avoid some useless purchase. Something that i miss from my old Moto X Style is the customization. I could root this thing to do it without any plugin but so far i'm not interested in rooting and all that.

I didn't find any replacements..
I think if You dont wanna root Your phone You should buy Andromeda rootless backend - support devs, because it works.
I'm currenly using the Andromeda... It does work but with some errors n doesn't work well with all themes...
I've got something to show..
Thanks guys. I'll buy it anytime soon then.
I have been using it on 0.8 Verizon edition with no probs, sais oreo theme is a pretty good dark theme.
I am using it. Everything was working until the most recent security update for oreo. Although it may have been me updating my theme, which i did after the security update.
I can't stand all the ads on this phone. Ugh.
I use it with stock Oreo 8.0.0. No issues.
Black theme (forgot the name but it is the most popular one) is nice for the notification bar and settings menu.
Which theme is that?

Its working fine, I'm experiencing no lags.
Black looks beautiful and being AMOLED saves battery also.
Notification issue
The Default Dark Theme works except for some notifications that keep having dark text on dark background (see first notification on the attached image). Is there any way to fix that? My device is not rooted.

I am currently using a pitch black theme that is called Sai's Oreo Theme: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=baka.sai.oreo&hl=en
I`ve been using Default Dark from F-Droid. Basically switches the Phones/Contacts/Settings/QSettings etc to dark.
The app has one annoyance to it cause you got to connect the phone to the pc if you want to use substratum.
The good stuff is that applied theme survives reboot, so it`s not so bad in the end.

Question Any root way for amoled black?

Hello geeks,
I'm sick and tired of this so called "dark", ugly Grey color. Is there any way to go black? I mean the real amoled black we been used to in a decade.
I'm rooted and tried Flux, swift, and many other substratum themes but they don't work on this android 13 thing.

Flux has Android 13 support so not sure why it's not working for you. So do Liv Dark, Iris and Iris Monet, amongst others. Also, you should be using Substratum Lite rather than Substratum, if you aren't.
Man, you're a real dog. You saved my time. The lite thing just worked. Thank you so much
Could someone please point me in the direction of the substratum lite for my stock, rooted, P6P A13.
A search on XDA produced hundreds of pages, but I am unable to tell which apply to me, and the Substratum hub is all about Oreo and older.
This would be my first venture into themes and I would like to learn more.
Thanks

Here is the Substratum Lite app.
There are several themes you can use on A13, as mentioned above. Search Play Store for themes such as Liv Dark, Flux, Iris, Iris Monet, etc.. For others you will have to search on Telegram.
You can use AOSP mod. This is the way !
aosp mod.project themer .
Does it work on stuck Tom thou?
i am on stock.so yes.
Project themer work perfect on A13 (playstore)
Maybe not what you're looking for but here's for black wallpaper: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.mangino.android.No_Wallpaper
