Is it possible to pick a new color other than the default orange? I probably want a blue or something, but I don't really want to mess with framework apks. Is this yet possible? I did check the asus theme app but I did not see an option for that.
Yeah. Use the themes app, go to my themes, and then find the create button. If you can't find it I'll reply with more info
Put a blue picture as background and make the theme, change your wallpaper back after.

thanks I found the create button under my creations. I can now change the colour settings and icon shape, wallpaper, etc. I'm just playing around with it now. I think I can get it the way I like from here on my own. thanks again man!
EDIT: Actually, it looks better now, but it kicked me out of dark mode in settings and such. I actually prefer it this way, but its also interesting. I wonder if any of the mods I tried initially may not have worked because of the default theme's dark mode. hmmm...
I wanted to make my status bar always black with white icons. used to work on my old phone, but it was old. so yea doesn't work

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

Try this

Or this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lge.jtunes.black
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lge.wsdeveloper.ux8.black
This is a great option. And the best thing is that it's free

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 )?

To test uf the notification got dark contact us
Or after applying theme pls plus your phone to pc or laptop and see if uts dark
If yes

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

Ooh? Youre the dev? I want to report that snooze option in notification (swipe right on notif and select the clock) habe dark text on dark background
So, starting to switch my V20 (996US on Alpha-Omega Oreo ROM) to dark mode.
Many apps now have a switch.
I've installed the Dark Mode app to get some more apps into dark mode.
Installed the LG G8 Black Theme in the system settings to get the system settings, default dialer, etc. into dark mode.
What other dark mode tweaks am I missing?
For example, how do we get dark mode gmail in Oreo?
How do we get the notifications darker?
You should use a theme that has built in dark notifications. Most mark bencze themes that are dark mode have that option.

I haven't heard of any free ones that do. Out of the paid ones, here are some specific ones mentioned by someone on the Subreddit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/lgv20/comments/arfj5n/anybody_know_any_other_lg_dark_oreo_themes_that/
Also, one member recently discussed trying to get dark notifications with Substratum themes in the past but having trouble:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/lg-v20-reveiw-modding-guide-mid-2019-t3930639/page9
It's a shame there's no easy free way to darken the notifications.
Any other tips for darkening the phones? (Like Gmail and a few other apps)?
I use muify, a worthwhile paid app, that you can color however you like, it's a sister app of Bottom Quick Settings that does the same.
Youz might be interested to know dark mode uses more power on an LCD because dark mode had to block out the white backlight behind the lcd. The opposite is the case on an OLED because it doesn't have a backlight : )

Thanks for these suggestions and for the tips about the backlight.
The only free theme with dark notifications that I could find for the LG V20 - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lge.wsdeveloper.black.mios
Mios Black
It's quite nice overall!

Is there any other place I could get this other than play store? I've tried to find it, but don't trust the sources.

Got the same unavailable message. Strange to see a free LG theme being blocked in the U.S. I don't think there are any other sources than the external sites you see when searching. FWIW, I've used several apps from the APKPure site in the past without problems. I keep one of my spare V20s in a "minimized" configuration with no Google accounts attached and all apps either sideloaded or installed through Titanium Backup.
And in case anyone missed it, someone in that review/modding guide thread mentioned the free Substratum theme Sai's Oreo Theme that also has dark notifications (and it's not geoblocked in the U.S.).

Umm.. dunno, have you checked Yalp store/Aurora store, if they allow you to access it?
I absolutely hate that wechat doesn't have a dark theme. When android 10 first was available the force dark mode used to partially work to make it black but in the recent update they found a workaround to force it back to white even when force dark mode enabled.
If anyone has/knows any possibility of making a dark theme for wechat or using other apps to add an overlay for it please let me know! Greatly appreciated in advance. I've already tried hex and synergy but they don't seem to support the theming wechat.

I've had the exact same issue as you. I bought both synergy and hex messaged the developers as well asking if there's any way they'd add a way to theme it but have had no luck. I used to use the force Dark Mode on my S10 to make it partially work but as you pointed out it no longer seems to work. I'd do anything to remove the awful bright white from WeChat.
