Time to Pixel My Ride!
Hi All,
Just sharing my latest flash zip for Nexus 6P running the latest dev preview 7.1.1 NPF10C. Zip includes;
Initial release
* Nexus Wallpaper Stub Prebuild (From Pixel XL system Dump 11OCT16)
* WallpapersUsTwo (From Pixel XL system Dump 11OCT16)
* Google Wallpapers (v1.0.0.135171601 20OCT16)
* Google Dialer (From Pixel XL system Dump 11OCT16)
* Pixel Launcher (v7.1.1-3359438 (31) 20OCT16)
* Media Folder from Pixel System Dump (all sounds).
Update 2 - 24OCT16
* Added Pixel XL Boot Screen Animation.
Update 3 - 29OCT16
* My Latest work - Added my new BLACK bootanimation 1440p as a seperate flash zip to my google drive.
Can also refer to my seperate post at http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/themes-apps/flash-zip-pixel-xl-1440p-boot-animation-t3489683
Plus I have attached tweakprop flash zip with a tweak.prop file to auto edit build.prop to change product to a Pixel XL to get new google voice assistant. Plus I added the option for miracast support (note: I haven't actually tested miracast functionality in 7.1 yet). Just place tweak.prop anywhere in sdcard and then flash the tweakprop-0.5.9.zip in TWRP. NOTE: tweakprop will make a backup of original build.prop to /sdcard/build.prop.backup.
Note: All credits to the original developer(s) for tweakprop. You are legends!
Can download the files from my GDrive. Just copy all to sdcard then reboot in recovery and flash the two zip files.

Note: I take no responsibility if your device breaks/fails/blowsup!
Always do a nandriod backup in TWRP or what ever your custom recovery is.

Do the Google now cards work with this Pixel launcher? I know prior pixel apks disabled cards
Not sure what I did wrong but those zips didn't work. I couldn't load the tweak and the pixel launcher did something to keep my phone from booting. Luckily I did a backup beforehand.

Same, I got an error 1 in the other zip and it's now stuck in boot. Flashing the factory image and I'll peek through the zip to see what I did wrong.
I also downloaded on the phone so maybe it's looking in /sdcard and not /sdcard/download
?
I dunno

Cards? Like in Google Now?
I dunno it just worked for me. I just swiped over and it prompted me. Didn't seem any different.
It came up google now on tap and then I deleted app data for Google search and assistant popped right up.

Actually you might need to clear the cache for the "Google App". This was a requirement for google assistant to work after editing the build.prop to Pixel XL. So those instructions if I remember correctly were;
1) Apply build.prop tweaks - in this case flash tweakprop zip.
2) reboot phone
3) Goto settings -> apps -> Google App -> storage -> manage space -> CLEAR ALL DATA
(yes will have to setup home screen shortcuts and everything else. sux but a must.
4) reboot phone again
After reboot holding home button will bring up google assistant. might also fix now cards if you think about
Dose it have pixel nav bar animated can u include that also plan??

Not sure.... strange. Works fine on my device. Maybe its to do with customisation differences between all our devices. I am running TWRP 3.0.2-1. TWRP 3.0.2-2 seems buggy for with with other things. Also in TWRP I said yes to allow editing of system partition (make it read/write access) since we are flashing these things to system partition.
As for the Pixel Launcher script the script isn't really doing anything other than mounting system partition, copying the apps across, applying correct permissions, then unmounting.

Not sure what yo mean... do you mean where the app/dock bar kind of bounces? I simply added the latest pixel launcher apk to the flash zip. Its the latest version so should have all the features google wants you to have except maybe things specific to the pixel devices. Although editing the build prop to be a Pixel XL you'd hope some of those things would apply.
Also if anyone knows how to activate the navbar tuner let me know. I'd like to add that.
Ok tnx and I will look into it

Ive gotten the error twice now and stuck on boot. I put zip in root of sdcard and download folder. Same error, you found a fix?
Yeah the pixel launcher script worked but for the assistant I just copied few lines to my build prop manually.
Everything is working as should.

Some have mentioned the weather setting in Google settings has an effect. Mine was already up when I booted but it can't hurt to try.
When I install tweakprop I get error and when I install pixel launcher it get installed but my mobile is not booting it stuck at Google screen itself

I take no credit for this amazing equalizer. All credits go to @zhuhang and the people from his thread for the convolvers.
If you don't know what V4A is check here for more details.
But basically it's an audiophiles dream that can cause serious hearing loss and such audio enjoyment at the same time!
The Zip has all the files included to enable "neon" support for convolvers, which are also included.
The feedback I've received so far is 100% success.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1) DOWNLOAD THE ZIP
2) FLASH IN RECOVERY (no need to uninstall if you already have viper installed)
3) open the app and you will be prompted to install the drivers. (I always choose the top one, although it does consume more batter, we'll worth it)
The EQ can be either super simple with just the basic adjustments or can get really technical in "expert" mode.
To activate the convolvers hit the 3 dots in the top right and click click the "ui settings" and change it to expert
Current version Download and discussion starts here
UPDATE VERSION 2.4.0.1 Neon Enabled + Convolvers
If using my previous zip version a simple flash of the new zip will update your V4A.
If you are running any version other than the one in my previous zip you will need to follow the steps below to ensure a smooth update to 2.4.0.1.
1) uninstall current driver from Viper by selecting the option is the app or use file manager and delete "libv4a_fx_ics.so" from system/lib/soundfx.
2) wipe data app with application manager or TiBackup
3) uninstall your current V4A
4) Flash to new zip
5) boot up and enjoy
6) hit the thanks button.
old version
Viper4Android neon enabled including convolvers
Enjoy!
I am on AT&T Galaxy S6 so I cannot have a custom recovery. Can you flash the neon zip using Flashfire? It should work, correct?

It did not work. I ended up having to uninstall the drivers then reinstalling them. So any other way to get NEON working?

You flashed using flashfire? You could push the files from the Zip with a file explorer with root access and set permissions to the folders (rwxr-xr-x, 755) and files (rw-r--r--, 644).
You should have it like this
system/priv-app/ViPER4Android_FX_A4.x/lib/arm/libV4AJniUtils.so
system/priv-app/ViPER4Android_FX_A4.x/VIPER4Android_FX_A4.x.apk
system/etc/audio_effects.conf (rw-r--r--, 644)
Also if you a folder located in the system/priv-app/SoundAlive_30, delete or freeze it
I posted this same Zip in my rom thread and have confirmation from AT&T edge and S6 users.
I am having a strange issue on my G920F,
I had a previous version of Viper4Android installed which reported the driver status as normal, I then deleted that version completely because it was installed in the wrong priv-app folder.
I then installed this version via recovery and when I installed the driver it reports the drivers status as abnormal and doesn't even report the sampling rate (reports it as 0), even when installed manually.

So, two things -
1) This zip contains a BUNCH of needless folders for what looks like other programs. while they are empty as far as i can tell, they make everything more cluttered (doubly so since they get copied over the the phone...).
2) If you stick with just the 3 files you list there, V4A works but still without NEON support. There is a fourth file however, that one brought over, is the culprit for breaking V4A; under /system/lib/ there is the libV4A_FX_ICS.so. If i replace this file with the one included in your ZIP, then sure enough, like the other powers, V4A goes into abnormal state and is broken until the old file is returned. I suspect you are missing something (or this file is wrong), given the hapazard nature of the entire zip itself....
I love you
For anyone else I had to flash this with flashfire.
If i used twrp I'd get the starting apps splash on loop.
Everything is running great here @stangdriver44!!!! Neon is working and status is normal and my ear drums are now blown out lol. Thanks for everything stang!!!

Hummm, it flashed fine for me with twrp. But thanks a lot for confirming it will flash with flash fire though.
I have tried this option and various other options mentioned in other threads and getting no where. The most I can get with installing the app as userapp is drivers working without Neon and Convuler. I have no luck with this option and always get unsupported. Tried installing via flashfire, twrp and also manually copying files without luck. Also frozen sound_alive and Adapt sound.
Can anyone think of any other issues that I may have overlooked.

Did you already have V4A installed or fresh install?

I had V4A installed previously. I have tried installing this over existing V4A. Also tried uninstallin/deleting all files and then clean installing this. No luck.
Also, I am on stock kernel rooted with pingpong. I think SElinux is enforcing. I tried the SELinux changer but not sure if that works on samsung phones with knox.

Did some more reading - the secret sauce for people is needing to run this script:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61242973&postcount=18854
Once done, the .so file i thought was bad works just fine....
Can confirm that above script is what was needed to get everything working fine. Now Neon enabled . Thanks all.
What is ""neon support for convolvers" ?! Thanks!
Schweet! Thanks for this @stangdriver44
this worked like a charm, I had a previous version that neon wasn't enabled on, I flashed this on top and lost Viper4A from my app drawer. I had to go in and delete the old version completely, then fight my way through fc's to reboot at which point I was good to then flash this version, happy to say neon is enabled! thanks for this

I flashed this zip and worked right out of the box. Thank you for finally enabling us to use the convolver

Wiki with more information about this ROM: http://www.urgero.org/AdvancedStock626
CRICKET USERS:
This ROM works for Cricket Variant phones now.
APN's for Cricket are not enabled in this ROM yet, so follow these instructions to setup the APN's for data & MMS.
Play Store might crash some times, or on first boot, clear the play stores and google service cache in settings
This ROM does not, and will not have Crickets carrier apks.
Take caution using this ROM, I do not have cricket, I have MetroPCS so I cannot test this ROM on Cricket devices.
This ROM for ALL cricket users will require the boot.img linked in the downloads below to get WiFi working properly until further notice.
Instructions for install are the same for MetroPCS AND Cricket users.
Enjoy!
****Version 5 now has some CM12 applications, please enjoy them, I also made slight changes to the libs folder, su.d folder, and added new libs to prep for the CM12 Hybrid rom
Download Links:
THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP, YOU MUST RESTORE IT FROM TWRP RECOVERY!!!!
Debloated and Rooted System Image(TWRP)(Ver. 5):http://www.mediafire.com/download/k7zfvdf6efr74ni/AdvancedStock626_V5.zip****IF UPDATING FROM A PREVIOUS VERSION YOU MUST CLEAR CACHE/DALVIK CACHE!!!!***
My Kernel backed up from TWRP: https://www.mediafire.com/?z1697u7dtpfwow1(ONLY DOWNLOAD IF YOU HAVE WIFI ISSUES AND MADE A PROPER BACKUP BEFORE HAND!!!!!!!)
Also: you will need 7-zip to unpack this file: http://www.7-zip.org/
For those who have been asking for this: MetroPCS Device Unlock App (Took it off a display model for ya guys )(NOTE: Might need to be installed as a system app! Read the bottom of this post for more info!) (NOTE2: It might need some libs files to install properly, I am working on getting those too.)
****WARNINGS****
If you upgraded your phone past 1.06.1550.7 this firmware will BREAK WiFi!!!!
You always run the risk of bricking a device when using non-oem firmware.
Although I have tested this extensively (And currently using it as my Daily Driver) expect bugs since some important HTC have been removed.
Your kernel version MUST be at 3.10.49-perf-g1363ba7 (Only kernel that has been reported to work properly on this device with THIS firmware so far.)
The RUU in case something goes wrong: http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_A32E_UL_L51_DESIRE_SENSE70_MetroPCS_US_1.23.1550.3.exe
THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP, YOU MUST RESTORE IT FROM TWRP RECOVERY!!!!
How to Restore The New System Image:
If upgrading from a previous version, please be sure to Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache before rebooting to make sure new system apps, and tweaks are properly used.
Download the system image from the link above
Extract the zip file to your external SD Card: (Example: Phone:\Ext_sd\TWRP\backups\)
Reboot into download mode (Vol Down + Pwr)
Select "Reboot into bootloader"
Select "Reboot into Recovery"
Make sure System Read only is not enabled in Mount settings.
Select "Restore" -> Select the Folder you just put on your external SD Card
Wait for a few minutes.
After that is done, go back to the recovery home
Then select "Wipe"
Select "Data", "Cache", and "Dalvick Cache", and "Internal Storage" ONLY (
IF UPDATING FROM A PREVIOUS VERSION YOU MUST CLEAR CACHE/DALVIK CACHE!!!!)
Slide to wipe.
Then reboot.
Follow android setup as normal
Profit.
Some notes about this Custom Stock ROM:
I could not remove everything because the device itself is using HTC's Framework so some apps had to stay
HTC Launcher is removed, giving up 100MB+ of space.
Some HTC Apps have been removed
New Launcher put in (CM Launcher)(NOT TREBUCHET FROM CM12)
Lots of google apps removed
HTC Keyboard stayed because it was the only keyboard I found that will be active natively out of the box on this ROM (Dont know why)
AdBlocker added
Rooted with SuperSU from Chainfire
about 3.6GB of free space BEFORE system does app updates, and about 2.7GB free AFTER the updates. so still pretty good amount of space left on the phone after.
Super smooth bootup time (About 30 sec or less for me.)
THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP, YOU MUST RESTORE IT FROM TWRP RECOVERY!!!!
Solving misc issues with the ROM:
You can attempt to flash the boot.img I have linked above to resolve the wifi BUT MAKE A FRICKING BACKUP FIRST BEFORE YOU DO THAT!!!!
APN Fix (MMS/LTE/TETHER): https://www.mediafire.com/?5b9q589337n8gaq This file needs to be restored with APN Backup&Restore. To do this you need to convert APN Backup & Restore into a system app then restore the XML file you downloaded.
Installing the Device Unlock app: Copy the apk to /system/priv-app/DeviceUnlock. If that folder does not exist, feel free to make it and put the APK there.
Enjoy my work? Please donate to me please. Every dollar helps out a bunch. Thank you!
Freakin sweet bro !!
I hope this may work with the T-Mobile 626s to right?.. Same chitt..

In theory it should, but to my understanding the TMO variant and the MetroPCS variant run different kernels, but if you have a working backup then trying can't hurt!
If you can give me the hardware specs and a copy of your system partition then I can see if they would be compatible.
Awesome, if you need any help or even a tester, I'd be glad to help out
if you need a tester let me know.
I think I will need a couple testers, I am planning on releasing a beta system.img (For fastboot: fastboot flash system system.img)
Should be easy, this system.img will just overwrite your current system image. You will need to have an unlocked bootloader for fastboot flash to work properly and you will need to know any tweaks that have been made will be overwritten. I will work on getting a flashable zip ASAP.
Would be happy to test and provide results
my bootloader is unlocked and it would be s-off but when i purchased the key from sunshine the program wasn't working with the metropcs firmware even tho it said it was compatible. just let me know when u get the flash-able files.
Can't wait to try or test I'm game
I am almost done compiling a list of files that can be removed,then I will be removing the files from a base system.img file. After that I will be *hopefully* resizing the default partition table on the phone to give us the maximum amount of space possible for this device.

I am a little behind schedule because of work so the ROM release will be mid next week.
I can certainly attempt, but if someone with experience could not do it, chances are I will not be able to do it.
Plus Xposed is still very buggy for Lollipop ROMS (Ours is 5.1)
Fwiw, xposed ran totally fine on my old s2 on all of the lollipop roms (5.0 and 5.1) that I installed. Don't let potential bugs discourage you. Thanks for all of your efforts. Best of luck!
Hey Guys I have finally fixed the fingerprint bug found in all the official S7 marshmallow,To use the fingerprint you must install C locker free version from the playstore...The rom takes about 10-15 minutes to optimize,do a clean flash...if your phone does not boot even after that,remove the battery and restart your device,when the bootanimation appears press and hold down the volume - button to try putting it into safe mode and you device will boot up just fine....
https://mega.nz/#!X81khIyQ!puPOTaW0eaiH9l0nxnk87dAtjF_awFKoxY1BAYfiROs
Edit:-
Hi everyone,So I have uploaded the files on Mega to manually fix the Fingerprint
https://mega.nz/#!rtMT3C7a!hJVcWlgNJjTIlTinOjgHcdjvhOyhTcq9seERa8Wo3z4
The Video Tutorial is on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMWe5T5DSgU
The Files Rar file contains two sub folders,
App and Priv-app
Place the folders in the folder App in System/App of your phone
Place the folders in the folder Priv-app in System/Priv-app
Also Set the Permission Octals for the Folders to 0755
and the octal to Apk or other files inside the Folders to 0644
These are the files I have replaced inside the Rom,If anyone is willing to make a flashable zip for these files,your welcome,But I don't think it will work if you are using your rom right now,It will cause the settings app to crash upon opening it....So A flashable zip and a Clean flash is Neccessay.....as for the lockscreen app,Use the C locker app attached below,It the pro version with license provoke disabled....
Cab you write the steps please? It would be far better, so anyone who see the steps can figure out something wrong in order to fix fingerprint

Please share the procedure, your way is unusual.
30-35min for actually doing it is less than
backing up my rom,
restoring yours and
restoring my data over it...
Besides I use philz touch recovery, not TWRP...
So you understand the silence here...
But I really hope it is working! :fingers-crossed:

No don't restore your data after restoring my backup....And well It requires a dirty flash of the insanity rom over the stock rom and the app optimization takes about 20 to 25 minutes for both the roms because first you must be on pure stock which has been factory reset,than add you're fingerprints and enable C locker or Cmlocker in services and set screen lock to none,after that dirty flash insanity rom over it,after it optimizes and boots up you will end up on your boot screen with a message stating settings,music,clock and google partner setup have stopped working,after that you have to open up root explorer and replace a couple system files with the stock rom files,these include Settingprovider,Secsettings,health service and clock package in the System/Priv-app directory and set the correct permissions and also renaming these files as the orignal ones,after that you have to place the settingsmaps and settingssearchprovidor folder in system/app and set correct permissions for them,After that reboot and let these apps optimize....Voila your done,your settings app will start working and you will be able to add fingerprints but you can not use them on the stock lockscreen because of the bug in the System ui stated in the Post....that is why you have to use cm locker or c locker and you have to download them and enable then while you are on stock because the settings app crashes on certain toggles while it is on insanity rom....Here is the Tutorial,Happy?

well, maybe; I had once dirty flashed insanity over stock,
I could use fingerprint in apps, but could not change the fingerprints in settings (FCs) nor lockscreen, obviously.
So I am not scared of your method,
even I think it will go through the process with my data left intact,
cause I am on (almost) stock now.
I like Insanity a lot, but fingerprint is a real deal-breaker to me.
according to your steps, you could create flashable zip with those stock (original) apps.
you know, permissions, replacement of files etc.. it is easier that way..
thx

No i don't think it will work because there is a reason we start from the stock rom and add fingerprints on stock rom,If we start clean on insanity and replace the settings app with the stock one and reboot,the settings app does not work at all,I don't know the real problem here,maybe it's the cache of the stock settings app or maybe something else,the devs know better....Hope they fix it permanently....

It also contains the data which neccessary to fix the Fingerprint scanner....Extract it and place the twrp folder in the internal storage of the device and restore,Do no restore your own backup or even data after restoring this backup,the fix might not work if you do so....

This is an extension of my Android Oreo Pixel Mod thread, found here https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/themes-apps/zip-android-oreo-pixel-mod-t3661388
This thread is for the users who want the Pixel Mod but also the ability to use Substratum. Why does my original mod break substratum? It modifies the framework-res.apk. The pixel no longer gets it's features from a modified framework-res.apk. It gets it from a theme. Making a pixel mod work with Substratum now requires making the 6P do the same thing as the Pixel. However, to simplify the mod I mimiced the features by modifying the framework-res.apk. This breaks Substratum. Following this walkthrough will enable the Pixel Theme on your 6P without modifying your framework-res.apk. Exactly how Google does it with the Pixel. (Exciting right?) This will allow the use of Substratum. This is what I am using and I can verify that substratum works.
Here'es the first thing: The files that you will need.
1)My original Pixel mod (flashable) -- https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=961840155545590555
2)Stock framework (flashable) -- https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298981491
3)Pixel Theme files (NOT flashable) -- https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=889764386195925591
4)You need to be ROOTED
5)You need a file manager that has root functions and can edit file permissions. (I.E.: Amaze File Manager, EX File Explorer, MT Manager)
Here are the steps. This is as simple as I can make it at the moment. It's not too complicated, but if you are a beginner with this stuff make sure to make a back up. Even if you're not. Make a backup. You are responsible for anything that happens to your device and making a backup will save everybody.
Step 1) Download all files onto your internal storage
Step 2) Extract the contents of "NO FLASH Pixel Mod + Substratum.zip". You should have a build.prop file and a folder called "overlay"
Step 3) Move that folder in your Vendor folder. Leave behind the "build.prop" If you go to your root directory you should see the folder "Vendor". Along with folders like "sys" and "system". But you don't want those. You want "Vendor".
Step 4) Make sure the permissions are accurate. The 2 apk files that you will find inside the "overlay" folder (the framework file and the pixel.apk file you'll find in the "pixel" folder inside the "overlay" folder) are set to 644. The folders "overlay" and "pixel" ("pixel" is found within the "overlay" folder) needs to be set to 755.
Step 5) Edit the build.prop file found within your vendor to include the lines that are found in the included build.prop (See footer)
Step 6) Reboot into TWRP
Step 7) In this order flash "Android OPR6 Pixel Mod 6P.zip" and then "Stock Framework.zip"
Step 8) Reboot
Step 9) If you don't see Round Icons you may need to clear Pixel Launcher Data
If SystemUI is crashing after reboot, reboot into TWRP and mount the vendor partition. Then delete the overlay folder and that'll solve the issue
If you followed those correctly you should have now have a Pixel Theme (Accent color, Night Mode, and Round icons) with compatibility with Substratum.
*footer*
ro.opa.eligible_device=true
ro.com.google.ima.theme=5
ro.boot.vendor.overlay.theme=com.google.android.theme.pixel
Followed each step as explained. Changed permissions from 644 to 755. Blue accent gone and stock teal is back. Default round icons gone and the ever so stupid square ones back. And Substratum's still broken. Wonder where I went wrong!!!
Edit : Additional to that, there are 'n' number of folders namely ".." with today's date as modified date. Each ".." folder contains multiple ".." folders and it just keeps going on and on....
Never faced this earlier. Have I screwed up something???

That is interesting. The folder thing is weird. Did you set the files "build.prop", "framework_generated.......apk", and "Pixel.apk" to 644? The files needed to be 644 and the folders needed to be 755

Should I be reflashing Vendor image to set the folders right???
May be I can retry the whole stuff again?
I am ready to be the specimen for experiments :laugh:
Is there any change Pixel Theme alone can be enabled on Nexus using ADB overlay service commands that were explained recently on main XDA page?

Definitely. I'm redoing the steps myself and I'm running into a weird bump. I'm going to revise it a little maybe. Definitely a good idea to reflash the vendor and take another shot though!

Try setting build.prop to 600 instead of 644

I believe so. Placing the overlay folder found from Pixel's vendor to the same place on the 6P should give the 6p the ability to use all the overlay service commands

Pleasure's all mine. When we can not do something on our own, the least we could do is to assist someone who is more capable.
Coming back to the point, I am using Amaze & EX Explorer to replace the said files.
Strangely, I am getting various error messages, like "Insufficient space".
Also, everytime I try and copy a folder, it wont show up until I restart the device.
I know this is little too much for you to imagine. I'll may be post a short GIF in some time for you to get a gist of the issue.
Thanks and apologies for the story.
Worked out fine with your instructions, only had to clear data and cache of pixel launcher to get round icons. Thanks!
Tested, substratum works but no night light

Wich permission did you use for the build prop? 600 or 644?
Sent from my Nexus 6P using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Congratulations to me... I think I screwed up my phone. All of a sudden Substratum started working (may be I had done everything alright???). Applied a couple of overlays and voila!!! The phone does a factory reset by itself and get stuck at the Google animation. Interestingly, it's the new animation that came with the OPR6 mod. Don't know where I went wrong. I have currently switched my cell off. Maybe I need to reflash everything again???

I don't believe there is a need to wipe if your phone factory reset itself. There may be a chance that it didn't successfully factory reset. I would reflash stock system.img and stock vendor.img. That should undo everything and let you boot up

Not to contradict OP but I used 644 for files (.prop and apk's) and 755 for folders. Also I don't know if it helps but at first I didn't have night light and installed the "pixel" apk (inside the overlay folder), rebooted the device and voila! After that just cleared pixel launcher cache and that took care of the round icons.
This is in place until TWRP is ready. You need root and of course you need to be attached to your PC. On first installation of systemui base, a pop-up asking to give ADB shell root permission will show. Please do so.
The purpose of this installer is to generate for you a custom module that you can flash in Magisk Manager. It will have all the mods that you have selected from the installer menu.
Custom clocks (date, etc) and internet speed indicators do not change colors due to light-dark background colors like the statusbar icons do.
The developer of Active edge gave me permission to use his base so that people would not have to make a choice between his and my mods. All credit for this goes to him. You must delete the active edge sense module and use one of my active edge modules. If it doesn't say active edge then it isn't active edge sense compatible. If there is an issue with edge sense after flashing, do not contact edge sense op with issues. He does not troubleshoot modified versions of his mod (and neither do I).
I'm also including my Pixel Launcher mod. Also a ADB Installer. You can change app drawer background-text color (separately for light mode and dark mode), remove weather from Launcher. Change the number of hot seat icons on home page (and size) as well as change the number of columns in the app drawer.
ADB Installer Instructions-Root is required
1. Flash one of the SystemUI Bases First. They provide the necessary smali files and public ID's for everything to work.
2. FLASH ALL THE MODS YOU WANT. ONCE YOU DONE WITH EVERYTHING, FLASH THE "COMPLETE INSTALLATION" Option. This will create a Magisk Manager flashable zip in a folder on your sdcard called ozop. Flash that to install your selection of mods.
Root required
Instructions.
1. Unzip ADB Mods Installer Files.zip on your PC
2. Run TulsadiverModsInstaller.bat (Give ADB Root Permissions)
3. ADB debugging Enabled
4. Flash one of the SystemUI Bases First. They provide the necessary smali files and public ID's for everything to work
5. Go through the other options selecting what all mods you want. It is generally best to start at the top and work your way down.
6. Once finished with selections, run "Complete Installation" at the bottom. This will generate your mymagisk.zip module in a folder called "ozop" on your sdcard.

Great work!
But it took me 3 hours to unzip and download it... Maybe zip it a little more? Ultra ZIP?

it didnt work, i ran a complete installation, now boots, and instantly powers off to a page with
Code:
Can't load android system. Your data may be corrupt. If you continue to get this message, you may need to perform a factory data reset and erase all user data stored on this device.
This is the error in ADB:
Code:

cp: bad '/sdcard/vrthemeADBversion/busybox': No such file or directory
cp: bad '/sdcard/vrthemeADBversion/installtheme.sh': No such file or directory
sh: /data/local/installtheme.sh: No such file or directory
UPDATE: I didn't install base. Now I have another problem... It tries to boot and doesn't, it takes forever, then reboots and gets the first error again...
To uninstall mods do we just flash stock?

Posted an ADB installer for December update.
I guess I am a little confused on how this mod works and I have a hard time risking not having a nonbootable phone. I read through some of the 3 xl thread and it seems like we need our phone connected for it to make a magisk module to which we then flash via magisk? This doesn't actually flash anything, correct?
Mainly, all I need is the back/home buttons swapped, which I have now but it seems the December update breaks that according to another thread.

For just three button mode? You can try flashing this if you like. Do you have active edge installed?
Swapping the two is easy though you need a way to get it on your phone which this should do.

Alright, I'll give that a shot when I get time to do the December update. I do not have active edge installed.

Is this going to have to be updated during every monthly update? Wish Google would just make it so we could change the positions of the 3 button navigation.

Oh yeah, ok, makes sense. I was more saying that if I wanted to do this myself and not have you provide a magisk module each time, then I would use the mod installer and go through that way to create my own?
