Dark theme not working Android Pie update - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

The device theme has a dark theme which is by default. It doesn't seem to work at all. Any suggestions

Try first setting to dark theme and then set a dark wallpaper. Once it works set any wallpaper you like.

Dark theme is only for app drawer and quick settings panel. System settings app will remain white

It's not working for quick settings

Do you have a live wallpaper enabled? If so, you need to disable it in order to use dark theme on stock android Pie. It's a known issue and there seems to be no fix for that, at least for now :/

I tried dark mode on a different device and it changed also the newsfeed and the settings. Isn't it how it is supposed to work?

Since you're rooted you can use autohide soft keys from the Play Store. It hides the Nav bar and you activate it by swiping up from the bottom. It takes ten minutes to get used to it. And while you're at it..You can hide the status bar on a per app base with the app settings module. You have to install the xposed framework first (and put the uninstaller on your sd, search it here on xds). You can then activate the status bar on swipe with smart status bar from the store.
Might take a while to set up this from scratch, but you end up with a screen without any buttons or bars as long as you don't call them. You asked for the transparent Navbar, I recommend the invisible one. See Screenshot to see what my nova settings, my browser (and every other app on my phone) look like, with bars hidden and bars called.

Its a wallpaper that comes with the G2. When you select a wallpaper, you can choose it as an option for where you want to get your wallpaper for.
I can confirm this works for me as well. Im using Action Launcher, and the status bar is transparent when i use Multi-Wallpaper.
the aicp rom for verizon phones does this. its awesome. not sure if its avail for tmo.

Did you mean "multi-photo" mode to set wallpaper? I've tried it on Apex Launcher but the navigation bar didn't become transparent [and yes I've enabled transparent bar in the display setting already]. Am I missing something here?

Quick settings suddenly maroon?

So I turned my phone on yesterday and noticed that my quick settings changed color from grey to maroon. I didn't do anything to cause this and I don't think there's an app that controls quick settings color, I also did change the color mode or simulate colorblindness. I obviously don't want it to be maroon, anyone know what I can do to fix it or why this happened?
Maybe you activated the Power Saving Mode?

Are you running xposed and gravity box? Did you change your wallpaper?
The color changes by automatically picking up a color from your wallpaper. That's the most likely cause.

But my wallpaper changes daily and it remains maroon. Right now my wall paper is like an ocean theme and its still maroon.
I assume your wallpaper changes automatically. The color of the quick settings and launcher only changes when you manually change the wallpaper via the Mifavour launcher. I think using any other launcher or the wallpaper changing automatically does not change the color. Try changing the wallpaper through the MiFavor launcher settings and you'll be able to change the color of the quick settings. I've attached some samples too.

Is it possible to get it black? Would save some battery
Sent from my ZTE A2017G using XDA Labs
No it doesn't, just gives you a gray theme if the wallpaper you select is fully black. Interesting thing I realized was that somehow the launcher measures the colors in the wallpaper and picks the one with the highest proportion, so if your wallpaper is multicolored, which will most likely be the case, the color most common will be picked and not a random one.
I use this app to get true black notification shade:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...app&pcampaignid=APPU_1_j4NPWs2SCYqUgAbZnqqICw
It also allows you to add and remove tiles.

Substratium not working

Anyone able to get substratium to work on sd note 9?
I am just trying to theme the stock messaging app so that the text box will be black. Is there a stand alone overlay apk that can do the same?
Textra is not an option since I loose some functionality of my gear s2.
Edit: I forgot to run the andromedia pc plugin to get it going. Everything is working now.
I have Subs working on my Vzw n9.
I have changed my Nav bars, fonts and a few apps so far.

interesting. I keep getting verification errors on substratium.
Systemui tuner + good lock 2018 has taken care of everything except the messages app.
Does your phone have to be unlocked to use it? I got mine from sprint I want to change the navi bar color so bad

Systemui tuner in playstore has that built in. No root required but you do need to run a couple of adb commands.
Is not working for me either. Note 9 on VZW. how did you get it to work?

I did and didn't work the first time. However I figured it out. I used smart switch to restore from my note 8 and Andromeda was working funny. Uninstall and reinstall fixed the problem.
Thank you
Only some things are working for me. The settings and phone apps aren't. It colours them if i select android 8.1 pixel or nexus but not the samsung option. Using swift black btw
And go To développer settings To enable USB debug mode.
Pitchblack Samsung is running on my note 9 using subsrtatum alone. A bit of a pain because Android permissions ask permission to install per overlay, but working 100% here without Andromeda. I have the US Xfinity Mobile Note 9.

So settings overlays using Samsung swift doesn't work. Doesn't it crash if you use another phone type?

Settings overlay just wouldn't work no matter what settings or device type I tried. I did however get the UI and some apps themed.
I didn't really see a big difference compared to the samsung theme i'm using right now + ADB navbar colour change so i stuck with that. Haven't decided on an icon pack yet.
Attached some screenshots.

Looks alright actually. So, you're using a standard Samsung theme with adb navbar mod or are you using parts of swift substratum and adb navbar mod?
I'm currently using swift dark, the bits that work on the note 9, with wings substratum to shade out slightly my black navbar icons and slightly reduce the ( grey color ) of my status bar icons. Oh, and also system ui tuner was used for my black navbar. So all in all , system ui tuner, swift and wings substratum used here.

I dropped substratum all together. I'm now using:
- Good Lock 2018 for notification drop down and notification shade
- MINU Black_Edition V2 Samsung theme for the overall black skin
- ADB Navbar Colour Change
- System UI tuner for immersive mode toggle
Still deciding on icons though..

Unfortunately not. I mostly use it to ensure it's black with my Gboard when typing since I use immersive mode. Apps like Chrome that apply a colour overlay will override ADB.
I assume substratum is the only way from small testing.. Even overlay apps like "Navbar Apps" don't keep everything black unfortuntely.

Mine stays black 90 % of the time. Although I have this issue recently using Google recently.

Navigation bar not adjusting with dark themed google apps

I'm finding my Oneplus 6T is not adapting it's navigation bar to match dark themed google apps. Specifically Google dialer dark theme from xda, but also stock Google messages app in dark theme. See image link below. I'm using nova launcher set to dark navigation bar and using oneplus built in dark theme. Bar switches to white in chrome and dark in reddit Sync app though.

Anyone else having this issue? Thoughts?
Updated link.
I've also noticed this issue. running 9.0.5
you didn't put the link in correctly but if it's what I think you're referring to (navigation bar remains white) welcome to OxygenOS. It's done the same thing on my 5T and 6.
Either install this in the play store and make it forced black: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.damianpiwowarski.navbarapps&hl=en_US
or remove the navigation bar completely.

I've found NabBar apps works quite well using the adaptive color option. Seems like its color accuracy in matching the theme of whichever app you're using has greatly improved.

Made a screenshot
I just got it today too, from the launcher update. Kind of ruined the idea of dark mode. Hopefully it will be fixed this week. But then again, devs never listen to us users. I use a much better weather app, so pre-installed weather is always removed from my phones.
