Here is a video showing some of the LG G6 UI. Images attached of stock system apps!
Let me know if you'd like to see something specific.
In this video I played with:
Stock Launcher, and you'll see Nova Launcher
Some Display Settings Display Scaling, theme switch, and extended screen capture.

Thanks! Does G6 have full month calendar widget? If yes please post screenshot of it with some example event added.
On new event page there is: cancel, pocket and save. What is "pocket" for?
and the last thing: incoming call and during call screen please

Is there much bloat apps?

Also interested in testing if needed. I've purchased several and would love for them to work on the G6.

Well i have one theme working on thr G6 right now and I have a thread open in the themes and apps section for support and feedback.
Now this is slightly tricky because there are some obstacles I am facing with porting some of these over. I cannot port over them all due to some extreme ui differences in a few apps. The main issue (but not the only one ) is because with the G6 there are a few apps where the text is hard coded white and thr same apps the trxt is hard coded black. So in short one device will get screwed with either dark text on a dark background or white text on a light background which creates readability issues. I most certainly cannot have that happen. And also the G6 has a lot of different elements that can be themed. So if i were to add those to an exisiting v20 theme it will cause the v20 to no longer work because it's telling the theme engine to theme xxx icon or xxx color which isn't supported. Thus the theme doesn't function. So that's an issue.
So what the plan is, is to port over a few themes that I can get it to function properly on both devices and the ones that can't will have to be a new theme.
Off the top of my head the ones that can expect to work on all devices are: Dark Nougat (already updated and live), Flow, Indigo flow and crush.
Remix, Vector, Dark Material, Dark AOSP, Pixel Ui are not going to work and will have to be new themes that will only work with the G6.
I'm not sure about Dark Ui theme yet. It may or may not work.

I tested this theme for the Dev and it definitely had white on white text in the sms app. The dialer had black text (ABC) on a dark grey background as well but I don't know if either are hard coded.

Interesting you say that, because I have some issues with some of the LG free themes from their smartworld store. Mainly with the notification panel. When there is a notification, the text is white same as the background. I am surprised on how they can mess up big time like that!

Good theme, though the Black Notification Panel is pretty much the same as the Default Notification Panel, Blue on Black. I'd imagine this is good for a dark settings screen, also a Twitter Dark Blue WhatsApp and some system tweaks here and there. Frankly I'd love to see a black Playstore and black WhatsApp theme!
If maybe a bit more theming, would be great.

Btw, I tried doing themes for other apps, but it seems like that it is impossible to do that without Xposed + root (or Andromeda, the no-root solution for Oreo devices).
I'll try to make that work, but for now the theme is suspended because Oreo is rolling out on many devices (mine included), so I could end up having difficulties in developing an EMUI 5 theme on EMUI 8.

Download the file and move it in 'Internal Memory > HWThemes'.
Then check the Themes app and apply it from there.

There are many themes in the i Theme app, but most of the themes you must buy. So here is a way to install custom themes. The Vivo theme file is .itz
You must use ES file explorer to see hidden files. The dir to themes is long: .dwd, c, o, m, b, b, k, t, h, e, m, e, T (that the map where you copy the .itz file)
I was also looking for a dark system theme, but many themes doesn't work, because the Vivo Nex use a newer Funtouch OS version. I found one dark theme that kinda works, but it not a really a nice theme.
https://app.box.com/s/m1n4w35xnx3cuz7hkbfjivp2kdnbwyym
You can also mix different themes in the i Theme app.

The best dark theme that works is this Miui 9 Dark:

costom skin
Thanks for the info!
This way I can make my all custom skin! Great!
Rename the .itz to .zip and open the file as such. You will find a bunch of folders:
> icons
> launcher
> preview
> wallpaper
Edit the contents to your liking, but make sure you keep original filenames and resolutions!
Where it gets interesting are the files in the ROOT directory of the .zip folder.
Those have no common filename extension and I cannot figure out how to open and edit them properly: Basically I have no idea what they do, but I think they are responsible for skinning the settings UI, making the lockscreen widgets work, etc.
If anyone has found a way to properly view and or edit those files please share with me!
Best regards!

Where did you get the theme files? When I download them with iThemes, they disappear from the folder right after finishing downloading.

Hoping substratum themes(even some few not the dozens that works briliant with Oxygen) work well with Funtouch OS.
I'm already using and bought 5-6 wonderfull themes by the way compatible with Oxygen hope some of them work with Vivo OS:fingers-crossed:

https://www43.zippyshare.com/v/pwnb4K44/file.html
I am looking into the .itz files at the moment and will post a version of the Miui 9 Dark theme with more black in it (settings, dialer, maybe control center etc.) because it looks amazing on Amoled screens and saves a bit of battery.
Feel free if you have suggestions.

One Suggestion would be to make the text of the apps in the control panel white, because now you can't actually read the black text on the grey background.
Thanks for making a custom theme and sharing it. I'm looking forward to it.

I'm not sure if that can be changed by themes, don't see that changing when using different themes But I will try!
Ok guys, I've got something!
Basically the MiUI theme, but with a lot of black instead of dark grey (settings, dialer, messages, file explorer, etc .) and a transparent control center!
Sadly I could not find out how to change the text color for the recent apps in the control center. But maybe in the future.
Please restart your device after applying the theme, otherwhise some things won't be applied.

Hi,
I just installed V21w-JAN-21-2019 and suddenly my AOD was reset, when I tried to switch it on again my original default theme was gone.
Anyone else notice? Now the Numbers in the digital clock are in a bolder font.... I really liked the old style better
Also the quick access (media/flashlight, etc) is now below the time.... it used to be on top
it used to be like this

The AOD is now the same as on the G7. The theme has now no influence on the AOD digital hour colour, but you can choose different AOD layouts by swiping and you can select colours in the menu.

No, it's not Pie. You can tell by the file name. Nougat was 1x, Oreo is 2x, Pie will be 3x. This is 25W.

Hello everyone
I have a rooted V30+ (US998) with Android 9.0 (stock)
I wanna know if changing the accent colors for the default theme(s) it's possible, in my case (attached image) i want to change that flashy orange to a more Pixel-esque color, light blue smth like that...
FYI - i'm using the preloaded High Contrast theme.
Thank you

You are NOT using the default theme.
Your problem is you are using the High Contrast orange theme.
Stop using that and you won't have orange.
There are other themes from developers you can download. Some are free, some cost money. Make sure you download the ones compatible with V30 Pie.

I was just differentiating between "default" theme and the selection of "stock" themes on the phone, as well as besides offering a solution (download 3rd party V30 Pie compatible theme, customized how you like).
I'm glad you found an acceptable theme. You probably found it before I even posted.
I agree I would want to change accents to this theme too like for e.g to red or blue etc etc

Stock High Contrast theme accents can't be changed. You need to find custom theme on Google Play you like.

Not that I know of.
Go look for custom themes in Google Play.
If you have stock Oreo, look for LG UX 7 themes.
If you have stock Pie, look for LG UX 8 themes.
