Dark Mode also for Third Party Apps? - Huawei Mate 20 X Themes, Apps, and Mods

Is there a way (or an app) that can enable Dark Mode also for 3rd Party Apps.
I have just upgraded from a Xiaomi Mi Max 3 (Stock MUI12.0.1 Android 10) and its Dark Mode has this feature so you can select the apps that you also want to exhibit Dark Mode. This works excellently. I've attached pictures showing it working for PayPal though you can select which apps you want it to work with or not.
Is there any way to replicate this on EMUI 10?

There isn't an app, but for me, all apps that support dark mode automatically switch to it. There was a couple of exceptions but those I switched to dark mode from their respectable settings.

Thanks for the response. From reading in other Huawei forums I saw that this feature to force apps that do not necessarily have an in-built dark mode was actually in the beta version of EMUI10 but then they removed it in the final version.
This is the feature I was referring to.
EMUI 10 dark mode apply everywhere
Hello Guys, i found this video where someone is showing the new dark mode on EMUI 10. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1enMV-ebGo&feature=youtu.be There is a "Apply everywhere" option in the settings right under the dark mode, but it's not there...

I've started to use DarQ which does a few apps but many don't get adjusted to a dark mode, whereas with the option/feature in MUI12 it does pretty much all very well.

I have to wait and see if they put this back in the soon to be available (here) of EMUI11

MIUI 11 9.9.24 Beta Install Feedback

Yesterday I installed MIUI 11 9.9.24 Beta ROM on my India K20 Pro phone. Below are my observations and feedback.
I was on MIUI 10 10.3.5 India ROM.
Installed Beta MIUI 11 by wiping Data, System, Cache. It is smooth overall and I find display better(it may be due to new font, don't know)
Observations:
1. Fonts are really good.
2. System Launcher is bit off. Swiping up opens up their own Media Center thing. (May be due to one of the launcher layout I selected while initial setup). Installed Poco Launcher, but it blacks out sometimes when going Home from an app. However it fixes once you perform recent app gesture and then back.
3. Downloaded 0.5 MB Google related chinese file from GetApps which install Google Services. Installed, but later while installing other Google stuff from inside that downloaded app, Google Framework failed to install.
4. Downloaded Google Play Store from GetApps. The installed all the apps.
5. Main issue was with Google Contact sync which was fixed by first installing Contact Sync 10 and then contacts. Opened app properties and given all the permissions. Restarted, it started working. May not work initially, but started working somehow.
6. Speaker sound is now better. It was very loud and uncomfortable earlier, but now it is much better.
7. Lockscreen notifications can now be expanded to read the content(which was not possible earlier)
8. System Wide Dark mode doesn't work all the times for non System apps.
9. Ambient Display has so many new options.
10. Samsung Routine like Tasks where you can schedule different system settings. Like lower down brightness to 0% between a time frame, etc.
11. Double tap to sleep doesn't work. Although double tap to wake works.
Overall it can be used as daily driver and I am loving it...
Great Explanation. Seems like a good build for a beta.
Can you do 1 thing for me?
I always wondered what are the new options for NEW Notifications when screen locked. Does it lit only the notification content like in pure andoird, or some other useless animations?
Can you post some screenshots of those options and feedback?
Thanks!
You can disable there media search when swiping up in the settings , I had the same issues as you with not all the Google frame work service not installing mainly contact sync , but overall miui 11 not to bad.
Hello, I'm on xiaomi.eu 10.4.6 and when i try to install the 9.9.24 miui 11 get an error zip treble could not fetch or install. I've whipped everything and tried 3 times but with the same result. I have rafael. Any advice?

Hope below may help, not sure though
Unzip the file, delete Compatibility zip(not sure whether I am spelling the name correct), then rezip and flash.

Actually I am using Ambient display, there it just put a small icon below clock with notification sound. Once I click on the icon, it go back to lock screen where I can expand that notification to read the content. You can also have different fancy screen glow animations when notification comes with Ambient Display
Will update you about your query in a while
Did u manage to get the ambient display notification working (the fancy glowing animation)? Coz i didn't even after enabling it.
Another thing issue is with app like WhatsApp being killed in background even after setting it as no restriction on battery saving and autostart app. U end up not getting any notification at all unless u open the app itself.

While on Ambient Display, icon appears below the clock with notification sound.(not sure if you are expecting more than this).
Whatsapp notifications are ok for me...Battery Saver set to MIUI Battery Saver...May be I am not using much apps or the apps which are consuming more battery in the background. That way Battery Saver doesn't come into picture I guess.
Seems like Working great.But ther was a problem with Gcam and Other applications like viper4andriod were not working properly in 10.4.8 which is based on Q . Can you do me a favour can u check whether those apps are working properly and give me a reply
The icon appear as usual for the ambient display. MIUI 11 suppose to add animation feature for ambient display upon new incoming notifications to rectify the issue of K20 Pro design having hidden led notification on the top of the phone. This is the one that im referring to as not working
Ive attached pic of the animation which i meant
thanks man for review and testing....one question, how about 75hz screen refresh rate mod? thanks bro
can I use it as a daily driver?

Instagram not reading system wide dark mode

Dark mode is active on my oneplus one phone running android 9.0 aosp, which has system wide dark mode active.
On my Mate20 Pro running 9.1 (320 update), Instagram app isn't reading the system wide dark mode. No matter what I do, it's still white!
One thing different on the huawei is the Dark mode is under Battery settings whereas on aosp it is under Display settings ??
Anyone had any luck getting the dark mode running on the third party apps on this device?
I do have the same problem reallt need a solution on the matter

How?? Tried the steps suggested by huawei India but doesn't seem to work either.
I managed to get the system-wide dark mode running an almost all Google apps.
First of all my play store version was not 16.9.10 so I uninstalled play store updates, then clicked on play store version to push it to update itself and then it was 16.9.10
Second I enabled dark mode via ADB:
adb shell settings put secure ui_night_mode 2
Third: reboot.
After reboot I got dark play store, google photos, google pay, google drive, etc..
I've got instagram in dark mode, nothing changed on the phone... phone itself isn't set to use dark mode
no way to return it to normal
well, i have the mate 20 pro and i got the dark mode of the instagram, but the problem is i cannot turn off the dark mode.....btw I like the original.

But' there is black Instagram modded app online and it's probably better then official app because you can download pics and videos, zoom profile photos etc...if you can't find that mod I'll find it for you.

[EMUI 10] New features brought by the Android 10 Update

Hi guys!
Because the update to EMUI 10 for our phones started to roll out also in the Europe, I suggest leaving the thread for the update status free of talks about new features that came with the update.
^update starts earlier if you check from Support app or Hicare app and not the USUAL ~stupid management Huawei~ system update from the setting menu.
So lets start then!
- Desktop mode
- Kind of no more HDR but still HDR ‽
....
Morandi color system
What about Morandi color system? On Honor devices doesnt provide? :crying:
Another cool new feature is that the app switcher cannot be changed to old one and the new one is slow and awful. Double tapping switcher button to go to previous app rarely works, it's more reliable to do two separate taps. But sometimes the switcher lags so much it doesn't even switch to previous app but back to current one.

Question MIU 13 lots of problems?

Hey , so I just update to android 12 Miu 13 however I have a lot of problems with the update
First
Excessive ram usage I have the 6gb version an i only have 1.5 free at best (i know and no I don't have many apps I actually deleted most of them for a test ) with more apps installed on the previous versions I usually had 2.5 to 2.9 available
Second
A lot like a LOT of lag on camera , I can't record at 4k is unusable at this point
There's anyway I can restore to the previous version ?
Please I need help.
Weekly is working flawlessly for me.
I'd try a clean install.

Including Dark mode?
When you enable Dark mode, all apps work properly and for those that do not, you can exclude them from Dark mode?
I'm asking because Xiaomi.eu forum is full of complaints about, from the beginning of MIUI 13 weeklies (various phones they cover)

Dark mode is always enabled and I haven't noticed any issues in apps. I'm not using that many different apps, so I might be a bad example in that regard. I think Xiaomi removed the dark mode settings for individual apps.

Yeah, that's the problem. Some apps do not work well in Dark mode (but people say those apps may still work fine in Dark mode and A12 but not on MIUI), and you can no more exclude those apps from Dark mode
Hence you must either not use Dark mode at all or you might have troubles (gray letters on dark background and so) with some of your apps
Hi

General Android 12 Update

The tablet received a major update the day before yesterday. It was 4.0 GB in size, bumped Android version from 11 to 12. Otherwise there were almost no good changes.
Changes I noticed:
Android Version 11 > 12
like on the phones no dark mode settings for individual apps
Material You support (but also like on phones no settings)
Security patch to October 2022
Launcher:
appicons change their positions during the update
grid is no longer adjustable & changes automatically (!) after display rotation (4x6, 6x4), therefore the icons also move
there is a large margin to the left and to the right, both orientations
many app names must be abbreviated with "..."
the new widgets are finally here, BUT this restricts all other widgets in size & position (There may be gaps that are large enough but can only be filled with apps)
Notifications and Control Center:
background Blur for notifications and quick settings: "simple-blur" > "real-glass-blur"
the notifications are displayed in a smaller space in landscape (like phone in portrait)
thus also more abbreviations than before
the control center has been updated and now looks more like (a fake of) iOS
One thing is striking: some things that were previously adapted to the display size are now more optimized for phones. This can be seen from the fact that, for example, the notifications are only in the middle of the screen and look more like a "portrait on landscape". As a result, the content no longer fits in completely and is abbreviated to "..." for most notifications. Something similar can also be observed in the launcher: The icons always have a large distance to the edge, they are so close together that the app names have to be abbreviated with "...".
Would it be possible that the base of the ROM was changed to that of the phones? I don't know how to check that, but I think in this case it would be possible to release the xiaomi.eu ROM for the tablet.
So don't update yet right? My Pro wifi version still stuck on 13.0.10.
I would ditch MIUI altogether if you're on the Elish (WiFi only) model.
I'm using Arrow OS (A12) and this is just 100x more smooth than the stock MIUI ROMs.
It BAFFLES me that this is the case.... team that makes the device should be able to optimise it as much as possible, yet some random built ROM from source is far superior. Sheer incompetence....
There's a Telegram group if anyone is interested.

I would say it's a matter of getting used to it. After a few weeks I no longer noticed the disadvantages. On the contrary, I'm happy about (the reintroduced) real glass blur and Material You support (especially Gboard).
The fact that the app icons in the launcher always switch between 6x4 and 4x6 (screenshot attached) is also the case with the new 12.5 tablet. If you want a pen/keyboard and up-to-date security patches, there is no way around it.
Unfortunately, I discovered something else (Does not have to be related to the update): if you leave Firefox, just to answer a message, for example, everything is reloaded. Means when I read an article I end up at the beginning, when I pause at a film I'm back at the beginning, if I want to add a photo to this post I need 5+ tries because the page will refresh in the time of choosing... Unfortunately, adding a lock to the app in the app overview does not change anything.

Hi friend,
I'm just wondering if you're able to use desktop mode or anything similar with Arrow OS. A big feature I'm looking to use with the wifi tablet is desktop mode (connect keyboard and mouse)

Regular tablet mode, but I would expect that means your hardware should work as you expect. End of the day, you could easily flash back to stock.
