It seems like such a simple thing...it can be done system-wide by editing the framework file, but it seems like using the CM Theme Engine would be much nicer.
Is there any such theme, which is just Holo Light (or Holo Light with Dark Action Bar)?
I second that request. I have a feeling Key Lime Pie will put a huge emphasis on Holo Light and I want to be a part of that.

i've looked and looked, i don't think it's been done.
I think the closest you will get is a miui theme :/
I haven't tried it, but https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cm.theme.HoloWhite looks nice in the screenshots.
I see https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEwMiwiY29tLnRpbGxhei50aGVtZS5Ib2xvTGlnaHQiXQ.. is a little older, and also looks nice.
Anyone tried either?

How do you do this on a system wide level by editing the framework file? I tested a couple of CM holo light themes but they dont work to well on the S4 due to the screen resolution I think but I would really like to enable it...

There's a thread on XDA about it (I think in this forum, or in the SW Development forum), but the answer is effectively changing "theme=holo" to "theme=holo.light" in one of the framework XML files. Since Holo, Holo Light, and Holo Light with Dark Action Bar are in-built Android themes, this change lets all OS rendered screens (preferences, etc.) change theme. It doesn't affect applications (since that's an application preference setting for Holo based applications), but it's a pretty elegant solution nonetheless.

I tried the first one, but the notifications and the tiles in the quick settings panel are dark and it looks very inconsistent.
The theme engine will. Other be able to make a complete light theme as it is limited in what it can do.

In case you hated the settings menu, and wanted it black! Well here you go. This method will require root access as well as xposed framework.
Steps
1. Search in xposed for holo themer and install it and enable it.
2. Open the holo themer app and scroll all the way down to settings.
3. Tap settings and chose holo dark and hit save.
4. Open settings menu and it should be black now!
Note:
1. This may as work with any app you choose.
2. May require paid version of app in play store.
3. I am not responsible for breaking your device as this is an xposed module.

Hope this helps anyone!

Only issue I've encountered is the "Adapt display" popup menu which bugs out.

Just got an update to Pie and now several screens (Messenger, Settings, etc) have a white background and blue letters I can't change. Makes it hard to see. Any ideas on how to change background and font in Pie? App Settings don't have an option. Thanks, smart folks!
Did you have a theme installed before the pie update? Try changing the theme.

Did that. Didn't work. Apparently there is no way to change the background color in the Messenger app and it doesn't emulate a theme.
Turn on night mode, that'll at least make the background black. I know that doesn't totally solve your problem but it might hold you over.

Hi,
Is this the same as the High Contrast theme in Oreo?
Or is it the colour inversion that turns colours into ugly hues?
Would you pls also let me know if it is a system wide one? Meaning dark notifications as well?
Thanks.

Sorry, but can you pls reconfirm if it is system wide black theme including notification as well? If you don't mind me telling, your answer is a bit ambiguous.
Installing and updating substratum themes are a chore which I would rather not indulge in.
Thanks for your reply.

Hi,
The question was whether stock ROM has system wide black theme with black notifications , not for the substratum theme.
Thanks for your time anyway.

It's not substratum theme. The stock rom has no black theme with black notifications, just black theme like the G8 theme from play store, with white notifications or the high contrast theme, also with white notifications. Substratum does not work for me, it's pain in the a** on pie.
im using mark benzce pixel experience dark theme on v30 oreo. i didnt do anything just installed app
and it has dark notifications also
same theme has different version for g8
and it has also dark notifications

Judging by the package name of the theme, I'd guess you are the Dev behind them. I have two questions for you
1. Is the Dual-Sim switcher themed too in black notification variant?
2. Is there an accent-color switcher somewhere ? If not, are there any color variants possible (I'd take anything non-blue for QS switcher - red, grey, orange )?

If you want a black theme for V30 on pie, this one works good, it does all notification in Black and blacks out everything. I used a few others, but are not compatible for pie so i went looing for one that did and found this one.. This one when you download, you press on the app and gives you the option pie or oreo (screenshot) then it asks for permissions based on each firmware and does its thing. It works, even on lockscreen and notifications everythign is black. Ill attach pics

Hey All !
I'd like to know if anybody knows if there's an option not to hide the notch in the system, i can't find that in the settings, even in Notifications & Control Center/Status Bar.
That's kinda annoying because i have a black bar on some full screen apps.
(Btw i'm running MIUI 12.5.7 China Stable)
Kind regards,
P.N

If the issue is with the notch, you want to take a look at developer options, but if the issue is with full screen apps is in the settings from the app to allow or not displaying them in this mode.
Thanks for your reply !
I already looked for these 2 settings,it doesn't remove that black bar on my status bar. I didnnt have that on my mi 9t, that's why it bothers me

Mm, I guess it solves if you hide the notch but moving the status bar, maybe an update? I remember some versions didn't include some features. In the meantime, you should read that https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/non-root-ota-hide-notch-fit-status-bar-with-notch.3838642/

Thank you very much for showing me this thread, I will wait to flash the xiaomi.eu rom then try it if the problem persists. If it's still there i'm definitely going to try this method !
I'll keep you informed here once I have changed my rom
Any updates bro? @playnote

I'll flash the Xiaomi.eu tuesday, i'll tell you more about that issue with that rom
Hey Guys !
So I flashed the xiaomi.eu ROM and there is the same issue, i tried SubwayChamp's method without success because i can't install the apk found in the guide
I don't know what to do, it's really dumb to have such a bar with the mix 4 screen...
Crazy isnt it, buy a phone with an under display camera and still get screen missing, i think the only phone i had that worked perfect was the Oneplus 7 pro.
Probably you can try by "moving" the screen (or simulating to do that) by reducing the screen tall.
If this method is still available in the current android version, you can try it https://nerdschalk.com/change-screen-resolution-adb-android/
For example, the resolution in MM4 is 2400x1080 if my source is not wrong, so you can do by trial-and-error 2370x1080, if not then 2350x1080 till get a comfortable view.
In MIUI-12.5 there is no option of moving screen smaller by reducing screen tall. They removed this option. This is causing problem, some notification icons get hidden under the front cam notch. Irritable thing.
Once you have Magisk installed, use this module
Tried with Xiaomi.eu, works perfectly
Without Root, any solution?
@Uometydev Nice, it's better than nothing, it would be perfect to find something that doesn't require ROOT.

Please share screen shot.
Hello guys, I am considering to buy Mi Mix 4 and it is really difficult to find info on this other than youtube reviews all saying same stuff.
My question is, if I use the stock ROM and no root, will I get this black bar or notch sometimes? I thought the camera was always hidden?
Second question is, how invisible is the camera really? On some video reviews, when the screen is off or on a white background, I can see the circle for the camera, but someone said it is just the cutout on the screen protector. So the screen protector has a hole for camera? Anyone tried removing the screen protector? Is the cutout or the camera completely invisible then?

Hey !
I had that black bar when i received the device on an official ROM, it may be fixed later tho (or have been fixed on official).
As i'm using xiaomi.eu Rom atm i can't tell but i still got that issue on some apps with EU rom, to me, that's the only drawback the phone has atm.
The camera is really hard to see, you can see it when you're screen brightness is low mostly on dark grey colors. When you're using it with full or 75% brightness it is slightly visible on dark colors (except black where it invisible because of the OLED) but it is really good and million times better than a hole punch.
Imo it is not an issue : I never bought a phone with a notch because i can't stand this and believe me, the UPC on the MIX 4 is amazing.
