Facebook Dark Mode now out in the wild - Android General

My brother has it already and he didn't do anything, it just enabled on his app and there is no settings for it and I think this is account specific, like other features on Facebook not everyone will get the new thing all at once

His phone is Vivo V9, an update just released weeks ago to Android 9. Also, I don't think that Android version is one of the factors to get the dark mode. And I also forgot, his phone is in dark mode (system-wide) maybe that will be one of the factors to get the dark mode

I am sorry but why would you need to do that on Phoenix ROM when the ROM itself includes Always on by default ?
Does it work on Nougat 7.1.1(Oxygen 4.7.6]also or not?
I’m really missing the much better quality and customizable AOD on Samsung device.
Current implementation with ambient display from OnePlus is totally crap.
No proximity sensor any more no interaction with notifications on screen.
Very very poor version from OnePlus.

Ok, as you mentioned "Tested on Phoenix Rom based on 8.1.0" it was kind of confusing.
Doesn't work for me. Op5t beta 2. "There was a problem parsing this package".

I use Glance Plus wit the optional paid Always On feature. Works great. Only thing is it doesn't honor the Quiet times I set, used to work in 4.7.6, but does honor the Silent switch, but unless something triggers it to awake/sleep again, it won't go to sleep still automatically at night when I don't want it to work.
Also have tried Always On from the play store, it works good as well. Just not a fan of the sizing/font options on the free version, but it works well also.
Be nice if OnePlus can replicate the Samsung version...that thing is nice.

Unfortunately those app consume more battery than stock implementation from OEM.
I’ve tried in the recent past and battery drain was 3-4% per hour.
Considering that AOD at Samsung only loose 1% per hour that’s a significant increase in battery drain with third party app.

Good lord, instead of all the mumbo jumbo just install Omni ROM. Has AOD built-in and works perfectly. No muss no fuss
Does it work on oreo 8.0.0 ( oxygen op 2 ) ??? Tks u

Samsung's version also does some hardware tricks like dropping the refresh rate and pixel clock and number of colors. The display hardware literally has a special mode to reduce power use that isn't supported by most hardware, or.if it is, it's not implemented by Android
Has anybody gotten this to work?

It wouldn't work for me at first, but I got it working now. All you need to do is make sure ambient display is already turned on before you build/enable the Substratum overlay. Then follow the instructions in the OP.

However it seems buggy and doesn't seem to work properly. At least on RR Oreo.
Does it move around to prevent screen burn-in ?

Old OnePlus 6 black and the new OnePlus 7 Pro white

In settings
OnePlus 6 black background
OnePlus 7 Pro white background
Can you tell me how to make the settings screen black with the OnePlus 7 Pro ?
Found it never mind
If you're talking about the theme, it's in the settings under display.
Apparently the latest version of the software will try to force a dark theme on other apps also, like Instagram, etc.

Apparently I must have missed the memo, my Instagram is still white background, lol
me too, lol. but he might mean in the Android Q beta. I believe since Q is going to have dark theme now, one of the features is that it also tries to force certain apps into dark theme as well.

Android 10 dark theme apps

So I've upgraded to Android 10 and I'm sure not all Google apps that support the dark theme are working, or is it just me. For instance I thought the boot screen was now dark too? Mine is just the same as before. Google Chrome and Now are still? white also. Is the assistant meant to be white? I've got dark mode turned on, did the update OTA.

Did you enable system darkmode? Or global darkmode? System darkmode is just theming. Global darkmode sets the default.
Tried that, still the same!
New pixel 2 user sorry for my ignorance but wear is global dark mode I've enabled dark mode in display settings but as previous mentioned it's just app drawer dark no Google apps like Gmail or Google now are dark , currently stock latest Android 10 October 6 security ..[emoji848]

I had to enable the "Nuanced Dark" theme in customization AND also also enable "Override force-dark" in the developer options. I am having problems with text not showing in the messenger app this way but so far that is my only issue I have came across.
Hope this helps

Thank you! That helped me find the app darQ which allows per app forcing, but it's not ready for black out yet sadly.. use this and it won't mess with messenger tho?

Problems with dark mode.

Hey!
I am using Hex but I am not able to have all of my applications on dark mode. Some of the applications not having dark mode are TikTok and Snapchat.
I remember couple of years ago I didn't have this problem. I used to theme all the applications well without any exception. The problem is, I don't know what application I used (could be Substratum but it didn't work when I tried).
What I am asking is whether there is some way to turn applications which don't have dark mode to dark mode? I have tried with Substratum, Hex installer and various themes. They don't turn all applications to dark mode.
Forcing dark mode doesn't have either.
I don't know whether the problem is device, system or application related.
I am using S20FE Snap One UI 4.1
Thank you for reading!

You mean the force dark mode setting in Developper options?
That's the best you can do. If that doesn't apply dark mode in your applications i'm afraid there's not much else you do except wait for official dark mode in those apps.

Forcing dark mode is turned on in Developer Options. It doesn't help.
If that didn't do the trick I guess the only solution is to wait. Snapchat added Dark Mode on iOS, i'm sure it's just a matter of time before they make it to Android as well.

I hope so. It's still very hard for me to belive that there's no application able to theme. It's a simple white to black inversion.
I'm not judging. I don't know how I would do that but I find it strange.
Dark mode has become increasingly popular in the last few years and it blows my mind that popular apps such as Snapchat or TikTok like you've mentionned still don't have it in their settings.

I agree. We will see.
I think I used Substratum back in past to theme applications which weren't compatible but not even that is available now.
You could try some modded apps with black themed skins. I remember this was the way back in 2015., before dark mode and substratum.
