FAQ ๐Ÿค“

How does ColorBlendr work without root access?
  • ColorBlendr utilizes adb commands to change Material You colors, allowing users to modify these colors without needing root access.
How does ColorBlendr work with root access?
  • ColorBlendr leverages the FabricatedOverlay API to dynamically change Material You colors at runtime without creating any permanent files.
Why doesn't ColorBlendr work properly on OneUI?
  • OneUI uses its own color palette for system apps, not Material You colors. As a result, ColorBlendr's modifications only affect Google apps and other apps that support Material You, but not OneUI system apps.
Why are some features grayed out or cannot be enabled?
  • These features either require a specific Android version or higher, or you need root access to unlock all features.
How do I properly uninstall ColorBlendr?
  • First, disable the ColorBlendr Service from app settings. Then, uninstall the app and reboot your device.
Is any personal data collected when I share a theme?
  • No. Community creations are fully anonymous โ€” no account or personal data is attached. Only the palette itself, along with the name and description you provide, is submitted.
Why can't I apply a community creation?
  • Applying a community creation modifies system colors, which requires root. You can still browse, search, and upvote in Shizuku and Wireless ADB modes.

Can I automate theme changes with Tasker?
  • Yes. Enable Tasker integration in the app's advanced settings, then send a broadcast from Tasker (or MacroDroid / Automate) with:

    • Action: com.drdisagree.colorblendr.action.APPLY_CONFIG
    • Package: com.drdisagree.colorblendr (required โ€” broadcasts without it are dropped by Android)
    • Target: Broadcast Receiver
  • Supported extras โ€” include any combination; only the ones you send are changed:

    ExtraTypeValuesWhat it does
    seedColorString#RRGGBB, e.g. #3F51B5Sets a custom seed color and generates the palette from it
    randomColorBooleantruePicks a random vivid seed color
    wallpaperColorsBooleantrueSwitches back to wallpaper-based colors
    monetStyleStringTONAL_SPOT, VIBRANT, EXPRESSIVE, RAINBOW, FRUIT_SALAD, SPRITZ, MONOCHROMATIC, FIDELITY, CONTENT, CMFSets the Monet style preset
    accentSaturationInteger0โ€“200 (100 = default)Accent saturation slider
    backgroundSaturationInteger0โ€“200 (100 = default)Background saturation slider
    backgroundLightnessInteger0โ€“200 (100 = default)Background lightness slider
    pitchBlackBooleantrue / falseToggles the pitch black dark theme
    accurateShadesBooleantrue / falseToggles accurate shades
    configStringJSON with any of the keys above, e.g. {"seedColor":"#3F51B5","pitchBlack":true}Sends everything in one extra โ€” useful since Tasker's UI has limited extra fields
  • Values outside their allowed range or malformed colors are ignored. Extras sent both individually and inside config โ€” the individual one wins.

  • Sending any of the three slider extras turns off Mode specific themes, since the automated value replaces the separate light/dark slider setup.

  • If Update colors when screen off is enabled, automated changes are held back and applied once the screen actually turns off.

  • Example: a Tasker time profile repeating every hour + Send Intent with extra randomColor:true gives you a fresh random theme every hour.
