[THEME][SUBSTRATUM][AA] WALLPAPERS FOR AA - Change the look of Android Auto launcher

[shmykelsa]

Ever thought the new Android Auto background wallpaper is very ugly? You hate anything that is stock and commonly adopted? Ever asked why Android Auto developers won't let the user choose between different backgrounds and just put an horrendous wallpaper?



If yes is the answer to any of the questions above, you are in the right place!



Introducing my first Substratum Theme, and it's all about Android Auto!




Pre-Requisite:

In order to use Wallpapers For AA you'll need to have Substratum installed on your phone.



Don't know what the heck is substratum? Here's the official starting guide

Lost? Here are some video tutorials

English

Italian

Spanish

Here's a preview of the themes available:

Batman

Van Gogh

Google Now - Mountains by night

Simple grey background

Windows 10 wallpaper

Google Now - London By Night

Windows XP

Windows 10 - Stars

Vehicles manufacturers - Samples

All the other backgrounds preview are available on Flickr

IMPORTANT

Starting from Wallpapers For AA version 3.0, the theme will rely ONLY on the new implementation of Wallpapers bundled inside Android Auto. This will mean that Wallpapers For AA will stay on top of the new feature of Android Auto 5.8+ that will allow every user to swap wallpaper with some included ones.
This feature is not active yet (as of 2020/01/25) and it needs further setup.
Please, read the release notes to learn more.

Wallpapers For Android Auto is available in 3 different versions:

Wallpapers For Android Auto - Vehicles
Includes all the wallpapers regarding vehicles (badges, logos, Vags patterns, etc.)
Previews link

Wallpapers For Android Auto - Sport
Includes all the wallpapers regarding Sport (NFL,NBA,Soccer,F1 etc.)
Previews link

Wallpapers For Android Auto - General
Everything that does not fall in the other categories
Previews Link

All the downloads are hosted on GitHub



Wallpapers For AA + Extras For AA = ❤

Heya! Version 1.6 - Art Update is live!

Here's what's changed:

• Added 11 famous art paintings. Along with Van Gogh's starry night (one of the firts backgrounds I've actually made for the theme) you can now expose an art painting behind Android Auto's icons
• Fixed some errors occurring on the welcome dialog on small resolutions
• Dimmed some backgrounds with car logo to make them less shiny (Toyota, Opel and Honda this time around. If you have any issues with other car logos let me know!)

About synergy support: I've tried myself with a friend phone, and I see Synergy builds the theme just fine but the background doesn't change at all. Unfortunately it requires me more time to find a fix for synergy support. I'm trying so hard to run some tests on Samsung Remote Labs devices in order to adress more specifically the root of the problem but I'm either encountering some devices with pre-setup and logged-off Samsung Accounts with no way to download the high contrast theme or devices on very slow servers that make testing impossible. I'll try my best to have ideal working conditions and find a fix as soon as possible, sorry!

Here's what's changed:

• 17 new backgrounds with famous Football/Soccer clubs from around the world
