Accent color in developer options - Google Pixel 3a XL Questions & Answers

I am on the latest Android 10 October security patch and I have to change the accent color back to the one I like after each reboot. Is there a way to make this stick?

Yea, you can use this magisk module. It'll install ThemePicker (Pixel Themes) and the wallpapers from the pixel 3 and 4, you should be able to open wallpapers and go into pixel themes and set up a custom theme which will make the accents persist on reboot. (Don't scroll on the preview before setting a theme or it'll crash because it tries to preview clockfaces but they were removed)

Pixel XL dark theme

After seeing that pixel 2 launcher changes color theme according to the wallpapers color i was wondering what if i install the pixel 2 launcher to my pixel XL, after all this future was implemented to android oreo and why not working for original pixels too? but after i tried i realized it didnt work. is there any way to enable this future?
You can try the Android 8.1 Oreo Developer Preview.
Added WallpaperColors API
Android 8.1 Developer Preview (API level 27) adds support for managing wallpaper colors. This feature lets you create a WallpaperColors object from a bitmap, a drawable, or by using the first three most visually representative colors. You can also retrieve details of the first three noticeable colors of a wallpaper.
Edit: I can confirm that it works with the preview.

Pixel launcher dark theme at night and light during the day?

Has anyone else noticed on their pixel or pixel xl that at night, their ui is in dark theme and then during the day is in light theme? I've noticed this on 2 pixel xl devices that at night, my folder, notifications and settings ui is all dark.
I can't find anything on this online though i know dark theme was possible with some tweaks before but this would have come directly with a pixel launcher update.
I'm running stock Android 8.1.0 with the latest security updates.
pixel launcher 8.1.0 4429924
It's dependant on the wallpaper

I finally got the same answer from someone at the Google helpdesk and realized what it was. I wish they would enable a toggle for the dark theme that followed the sunrise sunset adaptive brightness.

You could give Pixel 2 ROM a try. I don't have any experience with it, but it looks up to date now.

Hi there,
how about Andromeda and Substratum? (If you dont want custom roms)
[PC/MAC/LINUX] The official, full Andromeda thread for Substratum [Android 8.0.0+]
You can then install Pixel Theme from Playstore -
[Substratum] Pixel Theme
then just activate these settings Android System - Accent color - Blue
and
System UI for Pixel navbar (if you want).
I don't know about Night mode tho. You can either download some dark theme for Substratum. I can reccomend Swift Dark Substratum Theme +Oreo & Samsung theme (i'm not affiliated or something, I just tried many free dark themess and this one is excellent, even if you have to pay).

Ask in Support Group

Change the One UI blue accent colour?

Is this possible?
If not, can anyone recommend a theme in which the ONLY thing changed is the accent colour?
Hopefully Samsung adds this option in future updates.

Download hex installer from google play. You can configure high contrast theme to your preferences.
Download goodlock app from galaxy store. You can use the "quickstar" settings to customize the color of the quick settings.

You made my Day!:laugh:
I gave a try to Samsung Good Lock app and it's pretty good, but changes only the accent colour of quickstart menu (phone, messages and other components were still in blue).
I solved using #Hex Installer - Themes for OneUI (as suggested by Poedra13). I have created my custom theme with desired accent colour then I switched to dark mode from the #Hex app and everithing works like a charm. Now the whole UI and also the others apps have my custom accent colour.
