I'm not very good at writing introductions so I'll just skip to the point. I have produced a mod for NitrogenOS 7.1.1 that will theme your Nexus 6 UI to resemble that of the Pixel. This is done in several ways: changing the navigation bar buttons to be filled in, implementing round icons to use with the Pixel launcher, and replacing the teal accent color we all know and love with that sleek new blue. However, do keep in mind that we haven't found a way to port the new home button animation yet.

Compatibility status: Currently compatible with the 24.12.2016 build. This version of the modification is untested on previous and future builds so don't expect it to work.
I'm unaware of any further issues with this mod, so tread carefully. But it should be pretty solid. Without further ado, on to the packages.

NOTE: If you're not using these on a fresh install, clear the app data for the Pixel launcher to apply the round icons.



Thanks for downloading, and enjoy.

Update: looks like I've fixed the home button issue. I packaged the two APKs into a flashable zip if anyone wants to give this a shot. It'll take care of extracting and setting the permissions. Please, remember to back up just in case this fails horribly.

On a related note, I was reading into it and it seems that it's not currently possible to port the animation. Pretty sure it has something to do with the Smartbar/Fling system. I don't really know. Anyway, this is the best we can do for now.

Does this work on other phones like Nexus 4 or Nexus 5 ?
I'm not sure actually. Might be worth a shot if you backup...

Hi,

which problem u have for adding "new home button animation"..?
After following the porting guide to a tee, it simply doesn't work. I suspect it's because of the Smartbar/Fling system but nobody has figured out how to correctly port it yet.
