Hi,
How to get dark notifications like Pixel 2 devices have. Notification drop down shows notifications with black background and coloured text based on the app notifications. It looks amazing on Pixel 2 devices and I was hoping if there is something like that for OnePlus 6.
Have you tried a substratum theme?

I know that some Mms programs let you change the notification light to blue, but is there a way (maybe in framework.res) that let's you change all notifications to blue? I'm playing around with my own personal theme that matches the motorala gingerblur blue.
Try Blink. It's another app, but I'm fairly certain that it can change all notifications.
I'll check it out, thanks.
Not sure if this thread is dead or not but I have personally been using lightflow (free app in market) and I can change my status led to virtually any color and I have diff colors for diff notifications i.e. green for gmail, blue for gvoice, red for missed call, purple for normal txt etc... It's really nice to know what notification I've missed just by looking at color of status light instead of turning on screen just to see it was a gmail.

Yo can anyone fill me in on this ^ I watched loads of reviews but not one person goes into detail about it, Ino Notification lights aren't anything new so it makes sense they wouldn't mention it but what about the people who are new to Sony phones. Samsung is all I no mostly the note series.
Anyone who owns the phone up for making a quick video on the Notification LED? I'm mainly interested in what colors it can be because on my current phone (Note 3) it can only be Red, green and Blue and i think White. but apps like light flow let me mix these colors together to create new colors. However the new colors dont look very good. Years ago I had a Sony walkman phone it wasn't Android but it lit up at the sides when I got a notification and it could be all kinds of colors, real colors! It was well cool. I'm hoping the Z3 LED will be just as cool.
Hopefully that made dome sense.
Haven't got the time to make a video but I installed lightflow lite and created a custom notification setting.
Sure enough the led tries to match the settings I choose under custom color (although not 100% accurate but still).
The notification led on this phone is pretty small, especially compared to the nexus.
Hope that helps.

I haven't paid too much attention to the led but i have seen it green, blue, and i think amber also
Notification LED is a full color LED, color rendition is so lala, not too precise.
Especially white has a bluish tint.
Cheers everyone
Hi all,
I am just playing with the LED notification. First thing is, that not all LED Apps from Play Store are working. I think EMUI is the reason, but I am not sure. LightFlow is working, but not good at all.
So I tried different colors for different apps. But it seems that only four colors are working. Red, green, white and blue. I am missing yellow for example.
Has somebody from your side tested yellow color or another?
I wouldn't be too quick to blame EMUI, even the Nexus 5X has a very limited selection of colours despite also having a full RGB LED... the Nexus 5 supports infinite colour mixing tho

pink,blue,red,green,orange,violet...
with light manager i get all colors working (on my frd-09) except the in-app orange whits looks moor like red
Hm, I tried LightFlow and Light Manager. Both are not working for me. The Honor uses still its own colors if a app gets a new message.

In CM/AOSP, all possible colors can be used. EMUI is the culprit.

Is it full 24-bit colour mixing, or is it like the Nexus 5X which "rounds" colours to the next closest colour it allows?

Depends on the LED hardware. But most phones round it to the closest.
I started using Substratum recently for dark themes, trying several, but somewhere along the way my notifications began showing as white text on a light gray background, rendering them close to unreadable. I've tried to correct it by building and enabling multiple themes but the colors never change. Feels like I'm missing something obvious. Halp.
This is a Pixel XL (not 2) running 8.0.0 Nov 5 patch.

Did you remove the older themes and reboot? For notifications sometimes it's nessacary to reboot between themes I've found.

I had this problem and pinpointed it to Sonys own theme overlays taking preference, once I removed all stock themes the problem disappeared. Might be worth trying on your own device.
Hi Mi Mix 3 users,
It is reported that the Mix 3 features a notification LED somewhere in the upper part of the phone: is it true? Is it white like the other Mixes or ha anyone been able to pull out any other color, maybe with a custom ROM?
Thanks in advance!
Yes, there is an LED. It appears here: https://www.xiaomitoday.it/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/mi-mix-3-979x620.jpg
I believe it is only white. I installed the Lightflow app to test other colors or notifications but could not get it to work. I have only seen it be white.
White color only
