Substratum support for Lenovo P2 on stock rom

[Sushant515]

Have anybody tried the substratum on stock ROM because I am facing some problem as I am unable to revert to original theme even after uninstalling the theme as well as substratum app and also power menu doesn't work any more phone restart directly on pressing power menu
Does anyone has the same problem?

substratum doesn't supported by lenovo p2 stock rom.

So use it at your own risks.!!

Reflash stock rom if you facing problems this is only way to get rid of installed theme.

Yes ! themes are working but use at your own risk.. It can brick your device. Bcz stock roms doesn't support OMS. And will modify system stock files. And if anything goes wrong your device might brick/stuck at boot logo.

Sorry for bad English.:good:

The best thing to do is to keep a twrp dackup. If anything goes wrong, install stock deodexed ROM and restore back up.

I did had a few issues at first. But the phone will definately not get hard bricked.

If you know to use substratum properly, then you'll find 2 flashable zips inside the substratum folder. One of which can be used to restore the theme to factory settings

Only apps that will work is Playstore, Android Message App if you want a dark messaging background, Whatsapp, and Youtube. Everything else, no cause it is not Stock Android Apps; including settings. I used Swift Black Theme. Any other app can possibly work if it's on the list to theme it over.. If it doesn't, it' will say so or if the app fc.. Just go to the Overlay List and erase the App that is not working properly. Once your done, reboot and it will take effect.

True, usually that is used if you are doing OTA and the System UI crashes. It does help to get out of that situation when flashing the Substratum Recovery.

Loneelutes most substrate overlays will work. But notification text may get blacked out some time. Pitch black theme would do better in all aspects. All of its overlays worked for me.

I too had pretty bad experiences on stock ROM with substratum..


I use swift black (paid) in custom roms ..but on stock ROM ,I can't even update theme ..

Once if theme gets applied ,we can't change ..

System refuses to change .. and gives me bootloops..


So ..I just apply themes only to Apps but not system files ..


Even though some apps FC when they are updated from playstore , they can be troubleshooted easily ..


Warning : don't change system ui , pixel launcher ..


Things I change :

1) WhatsApp
2) navbar


I don't open others much ..so I don't care about them to be themed ..

Havent had issues with Swift Black..... So just test them, if it doesn't work.. Just go to the overlay list, erase and reboot. It's all about trial and error. Subtratum theme works on whatever app is listed for each theme.. When updating, you have to apply and reboot.. If that doesn't work.. Erase the apps that is themed in the overlay list and then reboot.. Apply the theme as if you are dling it for the first time and reboot again.

It's a bit tedious but that's Lenovo Stock for you. You can try Youtube and Google Playstore too.. And if you want messaging to have a black theme too.. Try Android Messaging app, Swift Black works on that app.

What's Android version should I pick when I apply the theme??

 

[sam00561]

depends iff you are on a custom rom then its oms and iff on stock rom then experimental although the themeing isnt as good as oms it is still acceptable and does theme most apps.
