This patch uses a custom app icon patch, but afaik there is a bug with custom app icons in the recent version of X.
The bug is that it causes all icons (activity-aliases) to become enabled, resulting in app drawer getting messed up and cannot launch piko.

Won't this issue occur by dynamic color toggle also changing the app icon?

            ),
        ),
+    custom = { methodDef, _ ->
+        AccessFlags.STATIC.isSet(methodDef.accessFlags) &&


I guess you can add access flags as separate parameters which accepts a list.

The accessFlags parameter performs an exact comparison with method.accessFlags, while the target method may have additional flags. the custom predicate intentionally checks only whether STATIC is present. it is also needed to express the non-static condition for ComponentFactoryActivityFingerprint

        name = "Dynamic color",
        description = "Adds an option to replace Twitter Blue with the user's Material You palette.",
-        default = false,
+        default = true,


Set the default to false, many may not want this by default

Since this patch no longer makes permanent resource changes, it can be default
Just like many other patches those have a toggle in Piko settings

I fixed change custom icon patch in #1624
You can restore the material you icon process

But rather than linking the app icon to the dynamic color toggle, I think it would be better to add it as a new option to the existing “Change app icon” patch.

Reason:

Users may want to use custom app icons while also using the dynamic color within the app
Changing app icon is unstable on some OEM launcher
Minimize issues when the patch is excluded
- If dynamic color is enabled in settings and user repatched the app without the dynamic color patch, the activity-alias will be missing and the user cannot launch the app, even if the "Change app icon" patch is included
A single "Change app icon" patch bear a responsibility for handling the app icon change

If you adopt this approach, I think a guidance for changing app icon can be added to the summary of the toggle.
Like this: Applies the user's Material You palette to the app-wide theme. To apply dynamic colors to the app icon, go to Piko settings > Customize > Change app icon
