Repainter ROM integration

This service provides first-class custom ROM integration for my Repainter app, which offers customizable dynamic theming for Android 12.

Benefits

• Convenient for users (no prompts necessary)
• Faster and more reliable than root and Shizuku backends
• Full functionality with all customization (no limitations), even on the January security patch
• ROM-specific configuration: dynamic boot animation colors, etc.

Features

• Versioned API
• Security: permission guarded by client signature
• Supports Direct Boot
• Automatically clean up themes on uninstall
• Link to app website in Settings -> App details -> Repainter Integration Service for users to see what the service is for (no launcher icon)

Adding to a ROM

1. Add this repository

Clone this repository to packages/apps/RepainterServicePriv.

2. Configure the service

This step is optional, but highly encouraged for better integration.

The easiest way to configure the Repainter service is by forking the repository and editing res/values/config.xml. The config is documented with examples and comments, so configuration should be trivial.

You can also make a copy of config.xml and add it to an overlay package in PRODUCT_PACKAGE_OVERLAYS, such as vendor/proton/overlay/packages/apps/RepainterServicePriv/res/values/config.xml, and edit the overlay copy instead.

Example commit

3. Build the service

Add RepainterServicePriv to PRODUCT_PACKAGES somewhere in order to build the service:

# Repainter integration
PRODUCT_PACKAGES += \
    RepainterServicePriv \
