[ZIP][Flashable] OPP3 Pixel Mod - NEED TESTERS

[krisyarno]

This is a continuation of my other Pixel Mod post. This is a pixel mod for OPP3.

What's included:
-Pixel Accent Color
-Round Icons
-Luthepa1's Black Boot Animation
-Pixel Audio
-Pixel Launcher
-All Rotations (0, 90, 180, 270 degrees) Because I like it
-Night Mode

What's missing:
-DT2W - I enabled this and it was causing problem so it's a WIP
-Nav Bar - Almost done


If anyone could test this out and let me if it's all working for them, that would be awesome. For some reason, Substratum was needed to (somehow magically) enable Device Theme in settings. That was key to some of the pixel mod. But I tested later and was able to work without it. For some reason, this seems to bring night mode too. But I wanted to release this to see if the accent color and Icons were working for everybody else. :good:

If you want to manually set the Pixel Accent Color (Find my comment below - It's extensive) that should work. However, if you want a workaround that's simple, flash this workaround https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298969440
That'll have the Accent Color just like V2 had

All good here. I've not got substratum. So, I don't have Pixel Accent Colours (I think). Navigation bar as you said isn't on yet. Round icons working good.

Installed it, got a fail message in twrp when flashing but i got round icons (for icons that could already be changed in pixel launcher), night light and boot animation but no blue accent color or device theme option

Great job btw !

Edit : Substratum installed, before flashing your mod i had the dt2w option under display settings but now it's gone

Thank you. The Accent color worked for me, but suspected it was because of me getting Device Theme to work previously and enabled the pixel theme. So once I uninstalled and reflashed this mod, it accepted the Pixel Mod by default.

Was there an error message for you in TWRP?

I believe that error message comes from trying to flash something into the vendor. The blue accent color actually comes from a theme similar to what you'd see in Substratum. It's interesting. Google placed the apk for the Pixel Theme in the vendor.img. For some reason, when trying to flash there I get an error message sometimes and sometimes not.

Thanks for the feedback. I turned off DT2W for this mod. I had the switch enabled but it was causing some issues when I was attempting to make it work. Thanks for the feedback

Flashed but got an error 7. Night light and round icons working fine. Nothing else is active.

The issue with the Pixel Accent is this:
Originally the Pixel Accent was a modification in the Framework-res.apk. Now that's changed. It's actually a theme apk (similar to substratum) in the vendor partition. TWRP doesn't support modifying this partition which is what causes the error. I accidentally found a workaround to this I'm trying to isolate what it was

No errors

Hmm, that's interesting that some people get it and some don't

Works, except the google voice assistance.

All works fine ... exept an error on TWRP. But i can not set the weather. The widget shows only the date. I Cleared Google app, and Pixel launcher, but still have an date widget on screen ((rolleyes:
And i dont have Rounded Icons..... (On me Nexus 6p Android 8 DP3) --- screenshot --->

I am having the same problem with the Error 7 in TWRP. But flashing V2 yields the accent colors but V3 removes the accent colors but enables round icons

I solved it in the weather customization of the google app.

V2 and V3 go about changing the accent color differently. As a workaround in V2, i modified framework-res.apk. Normally this had the accent color, but instead it was now a reference code that just pointed to all the different shades of teal. I changed these to the pixel colors (there's multiple). This gave the accent but actually changed some things from teal that weren't supposed to.

I now have figured out how the Pixel gets its accent color, and it's not through framework-res.apk. It's actually an app placed in the Vendor, that works like an overlay/theme.

I've tried implemented this, but TWRP doesn't flash to the vendor partition. I need to find a way to enable the device theme setting that used to be in OPP1 AND 2 also so it can be selected.

If you want to use the Pixel Accent, extract the zip, go into the vendor folder and follow it until you find the PixelThemeOverlay.apk. You'll have to manually place it into your vendor folder, and you'll need to make that file structure. Folders need to be made with permission 755 and the APK needs to be 644.

After that install Substratum and apply a compatible theme such as Of Accents found in this forum. Reboot and possibly wipe cache. Go into Display settings and at the bottom there will be a setting called "Device Theme". Tap it and then choose Pixel instead of your Substratum theme. You can then disable your Substratum theme or even uninstall it. But if you uninstall the overlay, your setting will be gone. You'll still have the Pixel Accent Color

There's NO easy way in getting this I guess. Will give it a shot tonight.
