Substratum themes - Nokia 8 Questions & Answers

Can you use substratum and it's themes without having to modify the phone i.e. root etc.
Basically want to try them but not void the warranty or anything.

You must use ANDROMEDA from Play Store. It's paid app.

Yeah I realized I had a theme bought a while back ago. Saw that it can give an Android P style look to 8.0. now desperate lol
May as well it try it xD. Was just afraid that I'd have to root my phone cause I'd not prefer to void my warranty especially hearing about the screen retention issue.

Try Package Disabler. You have have to purchase the app and it's not 100% sure to work on rooted. The developers updated the app for Nougat and had to create a companion plugin app to get around Samsung's new policies. My phone is still on stock (unrooted) MM, so I can't verify if it'll work on rooted Nougat.

Theme Support

Hello guys i wanted to ask that has anyone tried substratum's rootless add-on for oreo to use custom theme. I can't decide on which phone to buy. I am stuck between Galaxy S8 and Nokia 8.

Yep, tried a few themes and they are working fine. And disabling a theme also works..

If the system language is set to Dutch the Play Store will not be themed, it works in English though. The dev is working on that bug atm.

Obviously safe for OTAs as it's non root, however I assume themes would need disabled first?

Samsung Stock Emoticons

How to replace Samsung Stock Emoticons with android normal ones?
I believe you have to be rooted, then just go to the play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stevenschoen.emojiswitcher&hl=en

Substratum support through Andromeda

As everyone knows that Android 8.0+ supports OMS. So, has anyone used the Andromeda and Substratum to apply a theme? Does it work flawlessly?

I'm using Substratum in Andromeda Mode on my 7+ (TA-1046) running 8.1. I've tested a few themes and tweaks.
Til now only one theme (Vacuum) caused problems (SystemUI crashes) and I had to disable it manually over ADB.
Everything else works as it should.

You can go and buy the app 'Andromeda', install the app 'Substratum' and install a supported theme for Andromeda (for example 'yoru.') from the Google Play Store. Follow the instructions in the Andromeda app.

For in-app purchases, while it's not easy to get a refund without the approval of the developer, you can try via the same process as with the 48-hour window.

Ugh, I guess you didn't read the description of the app on the Play Store. You'll have to enable Andromeda through a program on your computer (https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/substratum/andromeda-desktop-clients-release-notes-t3668682/) via USB every time you want to update or install new themes.
Here's it step-by-step:
1) Enable USB Debugging through Developer options in Settings by tapping 5 times in a row on Build number in "About phone"
2) Download and open the Windows script provided in the link I typed above.
3) A dialog will pop up on your phone asking you for giving access to your computer. Allow it
4) If it doesn't work, open the script on your PC again.

How to use Substratum with Andromeda on Pie?

Is it possible to use Substratum with Andromeda on Android Pie on this device? As I had been using a rooted OnePlus X before so now I'm used to themeing device using Substratum. Is there any possible way to use Substratum without root?
(Don't want to void the warranty by rooting.)
No, Substratum is not working on Pie, stick to Oreo if you want keep theming your device

Substratum works on Android Pie but your device must be rooted.
I tested and it works fine. :good:
