Good day everybody.
I do use Vivo Nex S, which I like a lot.
I have only one issue with it - when I enable dark theme, some applications are non functional.
Two ones, which causes me problems - outlook and google photo.
In outlook I get black text on dark background, which is not readable.
In google photos, when I select single photo, all other became gray.
Is it possible to do something about it? Is it possible to fix dark theme?
Nobody have such problem? Seriously?

Not yet unfortunately.
I had a similar problem with Google photos. I used the VIVO photo app for a few weeks until Google Photos auto-updated. That fixed my problem.

Thanks for the reply, I've actually used this app before I didn't really like it. I was wondering if maybe there was a setting in the note 4 to change it? When I had a balckberry bold ages ago my favorite part was the light because you could change it to whatever you wanted. Thanks anyway though!

LightFlow used to be a great deal for me without root. If you are rooted, a better battery-friend option is Gravitybox (Xposed Module). Its paid version supports setting custom notifications for every app (LED only or vibration and ringer too).
Light Manager is my personal favorite with some in depth options
Credit goes to @xpirt for his idea!
Here is a video showing some of the LG G6 UI. Images attached of stock system apps!
Let me know if you'd like to see something specific.

Stock Launcher, and you'll see Nova Launcher
Some Display Settings Display Scaling, theme switch, and extended screen capture.

Thanks! Does G6 have full month calendar widget? If yes please post screenshot of it with some example event added.
On new event page there is: cancel, pocket and save. What is "pocket" for?
and the last thing: incoming call and during call screen please

Well i have one theme working on thr G6 right now and I have a thread open in the themes and apps section for support and feedback.
Now this is slightly tricky because there are some obstacles I am facing with porting some of these over. I cannot port over them all due to some extreme ui differences in a few apps. The main issue (but not the only one ) is because with the G6 there are a few apps where the text is hard coded white and thr same apps the trxt is hard coded black. So in short one device will get screwed with either dark text on a dark background or white text on a light background which creates readability issues. I most certainly cannot have that happen. And also the G6 has a lot of different elements that can be themed. So if i were to add those to an exisiting v20 theme it will cause the v20 to no longer work because it's telling the theme engine to theme xxx icon or xxx color which isn't supported. Thus the theme doesn't function. So that's an issue.
So what the plan is, is to port over a few themes that I can get it to function properly on both devices and the ones that can't will have to be a new theme.
Off the top of my head the ones that can expect to work on all devices are: Dark Nougat (already updated and live), Flow, Indigo flow and crush.
Remix, Vector, Dark Material, Dark AOSP, Pixel Ui are not going to work and will have to be new themes that will only work with the G6.
I'm not sure about Dark Ui theme yet. It may or may not work.

I tested this theme for the Dev and it definitely had white on white text in the sms app. The dialer had black text (ABC) on a dark grey background as well but I don't know if either are hard coded.

Correct. There are some issues. Some are fixable amd some are not.
Oh btw you're not allowed to link to play store themes that are paid. You may get in trouble for that. I purposely didn't quote that part of your post should you wish to edit that out!

Interesting you say that, because I have some issues with some of the LG free themes from their smartworld store. Mainly with the notification panel. When there is a notification, the text is white same as the background. I am surprised on how they can mess up big time like that!

You mean change the icons? There are pixel/aosp themes just Google them... Also dark themes available... Emui8 themes work just fine with emui9. Also you can edit those icons with the EMUI theme editor from the play store

I've got 30 or 40 lg themes on Google Play so I'm looking forward to adding Huawei to it and see what kind of things I can do

Looking forward to your themes, mark. The LG themes, especially the G7 ones, were amazing.
Basically the whole phone go "dark" after we enabled dark mode in battery settings.
And yes, including the toggles.
However, for messaging app. You will need to switch it to dark mode manually in the top right setting icon.
Don't think we will need a dark theme for this one.
Tried the dark mode. However, anyone still getting a white 'light' navigation bar even when using dark mode? Especially when using apps, etc.
Yup, just waiting for a decent dark theme like everyone else.
I wake in the early hours, so need a theme that doesn't burn my retinas.

Yes its quite annoying. However there is a free app called Navbar Apps that can fix that although not ideal.

Tried Navbar Apps. However, I'm guessing the task manager keeps killing the app.
Did realise for some apps, after an update, the task bar stays dark. So it might be individual apps having to update.

Is anyone currently using a theme besides the in house dark mode right now? Specifically not one that just does icons. Before I start tinkering I wouldn't mind trying something out to tide me over. And I guess I want to get confirmation that themes even work and that Huawei didn't block them or something ridiculous.
Themes do work and Theme Editor for EMUI works, too, kind off, doesn't support EMUI 9 yet, you have to make do with 8.
I'm just using Theme Editor for Icons and Fonts and KLWP to get my Homescreen to look like I want it.

Hmmm I hadn't been able to get any full themes to work at all. But I'm thinking maybe it's because I had a crappy themes app installed by default. Once I installed app gallery it updated the themes app and it has way more options now. That might be why. But the ones I tried last night from Google Play prior to this only changed the icons. They were for emui8 which I understand likely won't work in everything but none of them did anything. May have to try again with new themes app
Ok so for fun I did try a couple emui 8 themes and it looks we can theme everything. Mind you none of them worked well. So I'm hoping to start making something. But first I gotta figure out why I can't decompile any system apps. Everything errors out so that's a bit of an issue
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!

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?
