Dear all,
I was wondering if it was possible to have the notification area in dark too?
Everything is turned dark perfectly when using this mode, everything but the notification area which remains white for some reasons I fail to understand.
Anyone would know if there is a way (not requiring going through Xposed modules) to get the notifications in dark mode too.
Thanks.

Thank you very much for your reply.
However that's not really helpful because what I want is to be able to do dark notification on LOS16, and I am looking for ways I may be able to do so.
I might have my reasons for wanting to stick at LOS16 (A9) atm
Anyone can help?

Not trying to beat a dead horse here, but was having trouble navigating threads to find actual solutions. I know the Burn in problem is common... and I am receiving my phone soon. Even though it's covered under Warranty, I'd like to avoid the hassle of sending it in for repair.
What are current known ways to avoid burn-ins?
Is updating to 8.1 preview good enough? Is there a way other than updating to 8.1 preview?
Substratum/Andromeda and load up N Navbar Pro. Switch to the dark gray Navbar. Nice and dim and should help.
Supposedly Google is going to be fading out the Navbar in 8.1 which is nice too.

Thanks! Ill try the Substratum/Andromeda method.
Yeah I heard the 8.1 Preview was a "fix" however I hate going beta and back on my main device
If youre familiar with SDK and/or are comfortable running cmd commands, you can put the whole device into immersive mode (hiding of nav and status bar) without having to root it. (the thread says the regular pixel, but its the same for our phones as well)

That's the first thing I'm going to do when I receive my device tomorrow :good:

You could also use System UI from the App Store. Has an option for this and works great.
Also custom navigation bar from the play store thats what im using had to swap back and recents

Install:

And make the static color as bright as you can handle.

One of the more pleasant surprises I got when I bought this phone was how dark the screen could get for night tile viewing. With Night Mode and the lowest brightness, I could browse my phone first thing in the morning without dying.
Now, on Nougat, Night Mode just adds a yellowish tint - probably reducing blue light or whatever - and brightness doesn't seem to go as low now. Kinda blinded this morning...
Is there some way of fixing this?
1.
2.
3.
And many more..
I probably should've specified I wasn't looking for a separate app for this purpose. I know that much!
Just wondering if I can get the built in function to be sensible again.

Surely.
No you can't.
Well,
Currently looking into downgrading to Marshmallow then. Newer doesn't always equal better, sigh~

No idea what I said, but okay.
I'm planning to buy this phone. But bugs keep me from buying it. I shouldnt spend $700 with stupid issues it shouldnt have. Hope you guys know of a fix....
1. Can I turn off auto brightness without rebooting? Why no toggle for it in status bar?
2. No dark notifications... why aren't notifications dark?
3. Why does the EMUI look so outdated?
4. Some features not working with 3rd party launchers like Nova. Is there a fix?
Dont mean to sound like an ass. But I shouldnt have to invest almost a grand for a phone with issues other phones dont have. Its ridiculous. If you guys have solutions to these issues please let me know. Hope to join the huawei family without them.
.
The fact thet you're here in XDA tells me that you play more with your phone than keeping it bone stock.
1 - Nope, auto brightness isnalways ON which I find stupid.
2 - There is Dark mode that turn the system UI black including Notification panel but not Notification Banner.
3 - I hate EMUI
4 - You can't change launcher on most recent update and there no fix to that. You can on older version like 9.1.0.120 but you need an unlocked bootloader and root.
So do your self a favor and stay away from any Huawei Device and go with Oneplus or Xiaomi
Have bought this phone (UK version) but yet to recieve it.
Not being able to change launcher, is that an issue just for the china version or the international version too on the latest update? That would be a biggie.
Also are there any issues with notifications not getting through all the time (an affliction a lot of Huawei phones suffer from). I had the Honor note 8 (Chinese) and this issue made it infuriating to use. A phone without notifications working properly is a dumb rather than a smart phone in my book.
Lastly one of the best bits about the Honor Note 8 was the ability to clear the notifications by double tapping on the finger print sensor. Do you have that on the Mate 20 X?

Dunno, brightness never bothered me
2. No dark notifications... why aren't notifications dark?
who said that ? THEMES !! it comes will all sort of colors, just download huawei theme manager from playstore, it also including fonts as well
there is also a theme editor from the playstore where you mix and match and come up with your favorite theme all from your phone.
3. Why does the EMUI look so outdated?
because it is ! next month they are releasing a new version where they copied alot from OneUI, which is a good thing and they focused on smoothness and cleaner UI
4. Some features not working with 3rd party launchers like Nova. Is there a fix?
i am using nova, i think this is a chinese version issue not global

i have it for almost 4 months, and i got the note10+ with my renewal and trust me, i sold it without even opening the box. nothing comes close to Mate 20x as a complete package these days, its really fast, battery lasts forever, great screen, amazing camera, amazing charging speeds and one of a kind speakers.

What do you mean?? The notifications drop down is dark. But the notifications banner color is white! Is there any way to get this to turn dark? Does the Power Shade app work as a solution?

Are you sure about that? Auto brightness is disabled until after a reboot.

What I was saying is that one can turn auto bright off but it resets to auto of reboot, that's what I think.

Auto brightness turns on after every reboot but you can toggle it off. It stays off until you reboot the phone again.

PS: yeah, pretty sure not being able to change Launcher is only a Chinese problem. Cause I'm able to change it on my Mate 20 X in USA. I used to use Rootless launcher for quite a bit. But switched back because of the ? animations.
(Quite jealous of the OnePlus animations and gestures control. I miss them from my OP 5T)

Is there a way through a tweak or custom rom to toggle it without rebooting?

You can toggle it ON/OFF whenever. It does not require a reboot. Adaptive brightness turns ON anytime the device is rebooted. It is not such a big deal do not worry about it if you are going to buy the device.
Hi, does anyone experiencing same as mine? Mate 20 shouldn't have dark mode unless theme but i dont know why some of the setting become dark.
Same behaviour on my phone.
Also some Apps like Google Pay "think" that dark mode is activated.

If you refer to my picture, it isn't 3rd party apps. Its in huawei setting..
you can try this theme https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=themes.huawei.os13dark&hl=vi to active full dark mode on mate 20.
note: please reboot after active this theme.
Hello,
would you please tell me if there's any app that can edit the horizon light animation and/or add a loop, so the animation continues till the notification has been read or cleared?
Thanks in advance
Would be a nice feature to have since the notification LED is gone
On Color OS 12 Stable works fine & is awesome.
I really wish we had Renovate ICE for OP9P. I used that to customize the horizon light on my previous phone.

I 1000% feel the same way. I find myself wanting to go back to my 7pro just to have RICE again. It was so easy to install/use and had every customization option I wanted. I just got my 9pro within the past month and at least once a day I debate returning it and using my 7Pro still just for Renovate.
:I can't decide if I should try a custom ROM like evolution or try to hold out for a rom to flash in Magisk similar to how RICE was. Not sure how many of those will exist anymore considering Magisk is slowly going away

If mwilky and the rest of the Dev team managed to get a OP10, would you upgrade to the 10?

If the hardware turns out to be a better upgrade than the 9 series was and it receives a generally positive response from the dev community, I'll probably upgrade. RICE would definitely be a bonus, but overall this phone just hasn't lived up to my expectations.

I didn't realize how much I depended on notification light until it was gone. The ambient display serves my needs as a replacement.

Yeah, it's natively available in Oxygen OS. See Settings > Display > Ambient Display. I set it to show during my daily active hours.
Other places that affect this include:
notification detail settings and customization (to change the clock style & other visual elements).
Enjoy!

Im not entirely sure how well this works, but I have messed around with this app previous. I used an app on the playstore called AOA by newGen Mobile, its not quite an ambient display but it is an Always on Display app that enables you to customize your horizon lights as you see fit(color, duration, pattern and such). There is a free version of it if you want to at least try it out.
