How to See If Your Oreo Phone Supports Treble

In this video, I’ll be showing you how to see if your phone supports Project Treble. NOTE: This only applies if your phone has been updated to Android 8.0 Oreo or higher.
Phones that shipped with Oreo pre-installed are required to support Project Treble — but that isn’t the case if your phone gets updated to Oreo. Some OEMs are adding Treble support, others aren’t. But you can see if your phone got it by running a single command in the Termux app.
Treble will help speed up Android updates in the future by separating the OS from the vendor-specific aspects of your firmware. In other words, OEMs whose phones support Treble only need to update the Android OS, not blobs or binaries or any of that stuff. Treble is also proving to be a HUGE help with AOSP custom ROM support, so cross your fingers and hope your phone returns that “true” value as shown with the PH-1 in the video.

NOTE: Custom recovery and a Nexus device running Android 7.0 are required.
In this video, Ill be showing you how to enable a hidden menu in Android Nougat that lets you customize the entire navigation bar on your Nexus device.
Youll need a custom recovery to try this one out, because youll need to flash a ZIP to enable the menu. Aside from that, though, you can reorder, remove, and add on-screen navigation buttons using this menu, so its a useful hack.

Full Tutorial: http://bit.ly/NexusLauncher

In this video, Ill be showing you two methods for installing a leaked copy of Googles brand new Nexus Launcher (now called Pixel Launcher). The first method works without root, and the second method uses a custom recovery.
This launcher is rumored to be released with the upcoming Nexus devices, but even though its supposed to be a Nexus-exclusive home screen app when its released, you can install it right now on many other devices.
You wont be able to get the integrated Google Now page on your home screen if you use the non-root method, but almost everything else works. With the flashable ZIP method, however, youll be able to choose from a bunch of new wallpapers in addition to the functional Google Now page.
