Thank you.
As Substratum is based off Sony's Overlay Manager Service and Resource Runtime Overlay, it should work on our Sony Stock Devices(in legacy mode). :p

Even I use Google Dialer + Google Messaging App + Sony Stock Contacts. Added to my TODO list.!
I don't use Xperia Keyboard. I'll look into. Thanks for reporting!
Yes the substratum themes will work, but only that supports legacy rom theming. Also if you apply custom themes from Theme Manager, it will override the assets that it contains. Did you apply my theme? by the look on your screenshot of Notifications it doesn't look like. If you did and it shows like that please reapply the theme, it should be pitch black or blue grey.

TODO :
Google Dialer, Sony Contacts, Google Messaging, Sony / Google Calendar, Sony Assist, Google Play Store.

Roms like our Stock that doesn't uses OMS which you can find in Custom Roms like Lineage or RR or Carbon, etc comes under Legacy Mode. You can read more about it here.

Yes it will overwrite ONLY that parts which the theme supports or contains assets of it, not completely. So yes it will partially overwrite my theme.:silly:

Hi, good evening. I would just like to ask if Substratum or Substratum themes can be used on non-rooted device. Sorry, I really have no idea about this. I am currently using Sony Xperia™ XZ, Android Oreo with April security patch.

hi bro thanks for your work
Is it possible for you that uses normal dark(dark gray) color instead of pure black?
If not possible at least use both colors with the ability to change the display settings of the device(as XZ2 Style xperia mod n Chinese rom)
Because the pure black color is a bit tedious and uniform Also, the white color fonts is easier to display in the background with this color(dark gray)
The picture below is a color sample that I mentioned
The same color is used in xperia mod n Chinese rom beforev2.4

    DOWNLOAD
    IN ATTACHMENT

    How To Use / Install? :
    • First Install Substratum from here and Do Not Update in future from Play Store/Apk Mirror/Mirrors. This ensures that theme can be applied / updated without rebooting your device as the lastest version restricts to legacy mode and you've to reboot to apply overlays.
    • Then Install my theme, Graphi.
    • Then open substratum and allow root and read/write permissions.
    • Click on Graphi - For Sony and then click on Select to toggle all overlays.
    • You can customize the theme by selecting options from drop down box like System accent, background color etc.
    • Finally click on FAB ( pink floating action button ) and select Build and Enable.
    • Wait for it to install overlays. Voila your phone is themed.

    For Updating To New Versions:
    Please Clean Installed Overlays for properly updating to newer versions. Then just reapply the theme.


    NOTE:
    If you haven't used Substratum before, for having pitch black as background (like one in screenshots) select pitch black from Background Color dropdown menu.
    Whenever you install a new app, just reboot your phone to properly show notifications.
    Select the dark theme in Music(Walkman) application.
    Select Night Mode in Twitter
    Select Dark / Night Mode in Substratum ( newer versions )
    Sony Clock and Sony Contacts won't be themed. Please use Google Clock.
    Select Dark Theme in Xperia Keyboard Skins

    Tested On : Xperia Z5 (Stock Rooted)

    I hate to say this but seriously guys! last version 180+ downloads and newer version 40+ ( till now ) and still only 16 people said thanks. You can at least appreciate developers works by just pressing thanks !. It just not with me, but I've seen many threads facing the same thing. I'll still continue to Update this theme but you should at least thank the developer(s) for making/developing things for your device. I mean no offence to anyone, but just saying what needs to be said. It's not easy to make this things, but rather taking out time from our personal life and devoting to community. Please give something back to developers too.

    Thank you for rating this thread 5stars! :highfive:

    Some of your bugs could be fixed by searching in my O_sense assets, I give you the permission for this.
    Quick Tip: Any app theme could be usually found in the main Android-Mainfest.xml beside the app icon and name codes

    EX: Ampere app (because it is the only APK available in my apktool at the moment :p) :
    in AndroidManifest.xml check this line:
    Code: 
    <application android:allowBackup="false" android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher" android:label="@string/app_name" android:name="com.gombosdev.ampere.MyApplication" android:resizeableActivity="true" android:theme="@style/AppTheme_light">
    Check the last part called android:theme this is the main theme for the app so you will basically go to res/values/styles.xml and search for that style and modify it as you want! So I go there and then I find this:
    Code: 
    <style name="AppTheme_light" parent="@style/AppTheme_base_light" />
    This means that the default Style that we want to edit is being modified by other Style called AppTheme_base_light so you can do one of the following things:
    1 - Navigate to that style and modify it manually.
    2- Change it to the dark style which you already have in your framework-ress but don't forget to write "@android:style/ first"

    Happy Theming :D

    Worked using pitch black option and default sony theme.
    Looks it's still using dark gray but that's fine by me ;)
    Any chance we could theme notification quick settings icons?

    It does sometime to me too, did you used build and enable option? If didn't work, do clean installed overlays and build and enable again.

    TO ALL
    Yes the quick tiles can be themed. But right now I'm finishing play store, substratum, google dialer,magisk, custom toast message( you're gonna love this one), custom settings icons with/without accent colors and some bug fixes. Unfortunately I'm unable to get some apps to work after applying my theme. The apps that have mentioned background colors in layout files, they're force stoping. If someone knows to get them working please PM me. Thank you. Many apps can be themed, but not all. Due to to very less time and stock theming problems, it takes time to properly theme and get apps to work. Please be patient for the update, I'll release it soon with the above mentioned apps themed. :highfive:
