Hello! This is a bunch of tweaks I created to make Samsung devices better by modding the interface to really polish it. Enjoy!

Installation
Installing is simple. Navigate to the play store and download the required packages.
Substratum
Substratum Required Addon For Samsung
Samsung System Mods via Playstore (RECOMMENDED)
Samsung System Mods Direct APK (BACKUP)

Tips
- A reboot is usually required to apply the tweak.
- Some tweaks are incompatible on some devices.
- Oreo is in beta (until I get it)
- The nav bar heights are broken on the note and oreo. I can't fix it. Sorry.
- I can do requests. All I ask is you consider donating.
- You can hide status bar icons. You must use another APK: SystemUI Tuner (from the play store)

More mods are coming! Please leave suggestions for more mods you want so I can try and make them. I've been getting lots of positive feedback. Also, Tigerhoods, Pimpmaneaton, Venom, and Crayonyes have been helping me a bit, so big thanks to them :).

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra
These are some more RRO mods I made. Some of them are more useful in everyday life than others, and some are primarily experimental for theming. They are all safe and have not caused a SystemUI crash.

Always On Display Tweaks
Hide battery (icon and percent): https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8DTpyUdT0UAcE1aNEhKdTVxU1k
Hide notification icons: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8DTpyUdT0UAV3BiODBjWWpmR00

UI Tweaks
Carrier Hider: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8DTpyUdT0UAeDF5a1E2OE5XVkU
Disable Nav Bar: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8DTpyUdT0UAaHBCTHpfY1FsNWs
Disable Status Bar: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8DTpyUdT0UAdkMtN2M5UjI2UjA
Remove Unlock Text: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8DTpyUdT0UARlpRRHJISnN1VW8

Misc
Precise Animation Scales: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8DTpyUdT0UAZlpxOVA3WU95c1E
Once installed, it modifies your window animation scales in Developer Settings. It only supports English and a few others. Still working on it. If you get a dev menu FC, just delete the apk, set your animation scales to off, and reinstall it. It won't have all the options but it'll still work (IE: 0x, 0.1x, 0.2x, etc..) even though the corresponding text is wrong.


More are coming! Please leave suggestions for more mods you want so I can try and make them. I've been getting lots of positive feedback.
Also, Tigerhoods, Pimpmaneaton, Venom, and Crayonyes have been helping me a bit, so big thanks to them :).
Can we also Uninstall them all?

Nice work!

I hope someday you will find a mod to disable the gradient in the area of the status bar and a bit under it when we set a wallpaper as home screen or lock screen. Somewhere in the lines of the code of the system ui, Samsung gives the command to put this gradient. On the other hand if the user sets a live wallpaper , Samsung doesn't give this command. More about this matter here :

Great mods especially no root, love them. What I miss the most is the gradient notification screen and also the long press volume to skip track

Can you make one that removes the battery percentage but leaves the battery icon for the status bar? Thanks and good work!
There is a toggle for this under device maintenance>battery> three dots in the top corner

By the way i have all of the tweaks in my phone except for AOD tweaks.

Thanks!

    Added some pretty neat stuff here!

    - Added Reduce Interval Scanning.
    - Added Enable Hardware Acceleration.
    - Added Device Maintenance In Advanced Features.

    An explanation:
    - Reduce Interval Scanning scans radios 1/4 as often which saves battery.
    - Enable Hardware Acceleration enables for acceleration in scrolling, view flinging, etc.
    - Last one moves Battery, Memory, and Storage to the Advanced Features setting category (so you can disable device maintenance).

    ALSO I made this Comotose app. I'll be releasing it on the play store soon, but for now ill send the APK. I was able to lose just 4% idle for 7 hours idle. PS: it sometimes disables itself after a reboot or unplugging charger. Keep an eye in it, and keep re enabling it.
    PPS: It needs to be granted perms via ADB so keep it handy. One time command.

    Comatose App: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.draco.comatose

    Oreo hide nav bar added

    - Added OREO Recents Close All Top Right.
    - Added Remove Nav Bar Immersive (OREO supported) (requires navigation immersion).

    To get remove nav bar to work, install my Immersive app. It'll need ADB permissions once, and then it'll work.
    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.draco.immersive
    Now set it to either Nav bar, or Full. Then the Remove Nav Bar will work! It isn't perfect but it works! Hard press works... sometimes... so enjoy!

    Thanks for everyone's help on reporting bugs and leaving suggestions.

    I really really really appreciate donations! To be honest it seriously motivates me to keep going and making these tweaks free and adding your suggestions.
    As I'm just a student with no money, your donations go towards either textbooks or coffee.
    Also, if you end up donating (even if its just a dollar), I'll add you to the first page as a donator!
    Thank you guys so much and enjoy!

    Big discovery!

    Edit: released this post too early again sorry! please wait an hour or so for the update to come out.
    BIG DISCOVERY WITH NAV BAR LAYOUTS! Enjoy!!! ;):good:

    - Added Wide Nav.
    - Added Narrow Nav.
    - Added Home Left Nav (back and recents reversible by changing order in settings).
    - Added Right Nav.
    - Added Left Nav.
    - Added Assistant Nav (left button; summons assistant).
    - Added Volume Nav (left down; right up).
    - Added Sleep Nav (left button; sleeps device).
    - Added Search Nav (left button; searches on current app).
    - Added Plain Nav (No Hide Dot / Keyboard Icon / Game Launcher Icon).
    - Improved Pixel Nav Bar Quality.

    New App!
    I created an app to handle immersive mode for our phones better! It does it through secure settings to it wont slow down the phone using accessibility. It works a lot better and without any persistent notifications too! Only thing is it can't hide status bar and nav bar at the same time due to limitations. But if you use status bar immersion with the auto hide nav bar (recommended), its full immersion! It even persists after reboots!
    It, too, is free and without ads. Thats because you all donated and I feel I should give back! So enjoy this app as well as my System Mods!
