Samsung’s custom skin OneUI features various new improvements and enhancements over its predecessor – TouchWiz. The new custom skin is light, more productive and offers better customisation features. However, despite the compatibility of custom themes, Samsung has blocked the custom overlays for OneUI. As like last time, the Projekt team has found a workaround to run custom skins on OneUI 2.0 using Synergy.

The team Projekt announced took to Twitter to announce the compatibility of Synergy v0.6.3 with One UI 2 devices. It is more refined and stable rather than the Custom Theme Installer for OneUI. The Custom Theme Installer is quite a useful app but gives a miss on core features that make a theme more stable. On the other hand, Synergy lets user import themes directly from Substratum Lite repository. Both the apps – Synergy and Custom Theme Installer offer OneUI customisation but follows a different way to make it work.

Synergy v0.6.3 syncs perfectly with most of the themes, but few of them are having some issues. To install the custom Substratum themes on OneUI 2.0 devices, follow the process below carefully.

Steps to install Substratum on OneUI 2.0

  • Download Synergy and Substratum Lite from the Play Store.
  • Download the desired theme that is compatible.
  • Now, open Synergy app and then click on “Add Overlays”.
  • Select Substratum Lite
  • Now, select the theme of your choice from the list.
  • Before clicking install in the bottom right corner, select each app about the theme.
  • Tap build at the bottom of Synergy.
    (Note: Synergy will ask you to install a theme from Samsung Theme Store to replace OneUI theme files.)
  • Now, go to Synergy and uninstall and install apps as required.
  • Reboot the smartphone, and then goto Settings > Wallpapers and Themes > Themes and click the Synergy icon and apply themes.
  • Once again reboot the device.
  • Open Synergy app and tap three lines in the bottom left corner and select Night Mode settings.
