Hey Guys,
I am yet to receive my HTC U11 but I just wanna check on a few things regarding notifications :
1) Do you get unread badge counters for emails, sms, missed calls, Whatsapp messages and Facebook? It is supposed to be like a red counter if I am not mistaken. Just want to know if apps like Facebook and Whatsapp get this too.
2) The Notification LED light is only RG instead of RGB yes? Would like to confirm on this.
Thanks in Advance Guys!

Hello,
my 2 cents: if you use Android Messages instead of HTC Messages, you do get a red badge counter for unread sms.
As for the notification LED, I think I've read somewhere thats it's RGB, but having received my U11 only yesterday late afternoon, I can't confirm...

Thanks man. I am more interested to know if Facebook or Whatsapp has unread message counters on the icons.
I get badge notifications for stock email, Twitter, and Next handcent SMS widget. None for Gmail, Facebook or instagram. Of course the last three is the App's fault, not the phone's fault.

That would be a first. HTC LEDs are always RG.

Confirmed RG only. Even the Red seems more Orange to me.
Has anyone found a way to display Badge count on the Facebook App?
Most of my other main Apps works fine. Only Facebook does not display any Badge Count.
Thanks!

Don't confuse the fact that HTC uses only two notification LED colors (green and amber) with the number of actual LED color components (RG or RGB).

Did you manage to find out how to turn on badge count for the facebook icon? Like yourself, only my facebook is playing up. Very annoying.
I can't say for sure that it will work with the Facebook app, but the current version of Nova Launcher replicates the notification badge functionality that Android "O" is going to have. So, if you're okay with switching to a different launcher, you might give Nova a try and see if it works there. (I'm running Nova on my U11, but I neither use Facebook, nor the notification badge feature, so I can't speak personally as to how well it works. Sorry).
There also the Tesla Unread companion app to Nova launcher

Thanks guys, I'll look into Nova (it's got some good reviews).
I just find it frustrating how existing functionality (coming from a Samsung Note 4) isn't supported by a new Android device. Petty but annoying.

What functionalities are you referring to?
I can't get Nova to display any unread notifications using any of the three options (dynamic, numeric or dots). Very frustrating. This works on the LG G6 but I suspect it's because it is only on 7 not 7.1. Has anyone gotten this to work with the U11?
Again, check out Tesla Unread app

I am using Tesla Unread. Doesn't work.
Hmmm . . . it's working for me. Maybe a permissions issue under Settings?
Hi all - I just got a HTC U11+ and having the same issue - no notification badges for Whatsapp or Facebook, Gmail etc. Why is this? It was there on my HTC 10. Does Nova Launcher mean you can't use the stock background and layout of the phone? Or is it possible to override Nova Laucher and use just Tesla Unread?

I got mine working with Nova and Tesla but wasnt using the standard background. To be honest, even though it "worked" the notification badges were rather sporadic and frustrated me.
So much that in the end I sold the phone and bought myself a Samsung Note 8. Guess what? Everything worked straight out of the box! HTC please take note (pardon the pun).
My recent experience will make me think twice before ever choosing another HTC product again.

Really?? That's so frustrating that they'd remove this feature - it worked fine on my HTC 10. Don't understand the thought process. I love everything else about the phone and personally am a big fan of the HTC/Google Android and less keen on Samsung. I feel dubious about using a third party app to completely replace the home screen, just for the notification feature (especially if it only works sporadically...)
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.

It is server side. It's a waiting game for them to push it to you. Some have it already and the rest of us wait.
There's a setting in developer options to override and enable dark mode system wide. That setting enabled dark mode in all apps for me. It's called override force dark. Try it out. Some apps don't play nice with it but most do.

You have to be on the new stable version of Android 10, and have developer settings enabled. Within developer settings near the bottom of the list you should see overide dark mode.
If you use Textra, turning this setting on will screw up your chosen colors...so off it goes.

Oh well. I've had Android 10 (official / stable) on my Pixel 2 XL for a while now, Already have Dark Theme turned on in Settings / Display. Override Force-Dark in Settings / Developer Options turned on. Rebooted (several times). Still no dice with Gmail (and I'm also on the latest APK - 2019.09.01.268168002). I don't even see the Dark theme in Gmail settings - evidence of it at all in Gmail so far.
Sure seems like I'm still waiting for server-side update lottery to pick my number.
Force Dark Mode does not always give me nice results.
For example Facebook replies are in a white box with light gray text "you can not read the facebook replies"
Turned Force Dark mode off.

hi i can't find this option in dev settings. Is there any option to run it?

If you are rooted and have the latest gmail installed and you are rooted then try the following.
Go to data/data/com.google.android.gm/shared_prefs/Flagprefs.xml and change the line that says name="DarkThemeSupport_dark_theme_support" value="false" to "true" and save it.
So it should now read name="DarkThemeSupport_dark_theme_support" value="true"
Force kill gmail and you should have the option in your gmail general settings then.

Hello everyone,
Once again, I'm presenting to you an all-new Always On Display app for all android devices running Android 6.0 and up. This app is the remake of my old App which was only for Samsung. Now it works on any android device. If you don't know what actually Always On Display is, It is a feature that shows important information such as Time, Date, Battery, Notifications, etc on your screen when it is not being used. This feature works best with devices that have an AMOLED screen, as the pixel goes off so the power consumption is very less.
This app has many improvements from its older version such as more battery efficiency, better performance, new features, and many more.
Key features are:
Android 6.0+ Supported
Screen oritentation option
Paged clock with new watchfaces
Edge clock with music controls
Rearrangable Widgets (Music controls, Weather, Next Alarm, Today's schedule)
Multiple Display modes such as wave to show and Lift to show etc
Screen timeout to save battery
Whole new color palette with custom color support and gradient support
Many new Wallpapers
New Font option added.
Battery optimization tweaks
Multistyle colored notifications with unread count.
Enhanced Burn-in protection, Movement of clock and home key both
Memo text
and much more
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Spoiler: Upcoming Features
New Signature clock
GIF support for Image clock
Detailed notification view
Remaining are kept as a surprise

Have you set a lockscreen in settings?
It can be a bug. I'm not sure. But first confirm you have already set a lockscreen and instant lock with power button is on.
A beta update with a fingerprint option is available on the play store. Install it and let me know whether it is working properly or not.

This issue has been resolved in the latest beta version 1.3.7. Update the app from the play store.
Dear dev, this is the best AOD app i've tried (and i have tried maaaaany app).. I'll test for battery drain (Samsung a20e), but for now, well done!
A whole new look with new clock faces is coming soon...
Great APP, can you add more timeout options ? the best will be custom timeout
I've been trying out a few different aod apps, but for whatever reason this one won't work at all. I'm using One Plus nord n10 5g phone, I disabled battery optimization, have everything set up, but when I turn off the screen there is nothing . All black. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Same concern!

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.
