This morning I updated to Android 13. I've had no problem whatsoever besides that the dark notifications color palette turned from bluish to sepia.
This affects notifications, google apps and basically every dark mode app.
I have a custom theme, OXYGEN 11 from WSTEAMS in the google playstore. I changed the theme to the default and the color palette turned to blue again.
I know this is then a custom theme related issue, but there being so few themes available for LG. I wish to know if there's a simple way to tweak this setting in this custom theme. Instead of keeping to the default theme that I don't really like much.
Any ideas would be appreciated
EDIT: I've found the issue. Notifications take the color accent from the background, red stuff in the background gets sepia tones for dark mode.

I love the Holo Light with Dark Actionbar theme. I have been working to make a vrtheme for it, but being amateur in themeing its taking me considerable more time and effort to make it work having to use the hit-and-trial method for everything and its becoming kind-of frustrating. So, even though I'll continue working on my own version of it, I'd like to put the idea out there so that maybe someone with experience can make it for us if he likes the idea as well.
What I'm thinking of is an even Holo Light theme throughout the ROM :
White background & black text for most apps(Phone, Messaging and the likes) and Settings. (I guess you could call it "inverted" but with holo colors thrown in.)
Dark grey & slightly beveled status bar. (Or White status bar with dark grey icons, but would mess up most app notifications since they are in white.)
White background in expanded notifications statusbar with Dark Gray toggles and Dark Grey and Holo blue for notifications.
Minimalistic Black/Grey Icons (like the ones provided for notifications by default in the Android resources) for Phone, Messaging, etc.
For cues and inspiration on the colors and feel, the Light theme on Falcon Pro and GMail's default Light/High Contrast Theme are good to try to take ideas from.
Meanwhile I'll continue working on my own version and I'll post it here as soon as I make a decent beta version.
I'm pretty sure its not been asked for or done here. But if I didn't search properly please point me in the right direction.
IMHO dark notifications and the whole possibility of darkening multiple GUI elements was definitely one of the main advantages of MIUI in the view of an average user. Few days ago, under Android 7/MIUI 9 - it was easily possible to have dark notifications (I mean: light-colored text on dark background) with the help of various (MIUI) themes. But after the newest update things have changed badly: now it seems there is no theme which could darken notifications . Or maybe I can't find the right one yet?
I wonder is it possible to have dark notification again - without root, without Substratum? I've tried Material Notification Shade app but I'd like to play with various dark themes as before - that simple way, no hassle for average users. Is it still possible?
I have enabled the dark theme on my phone however is there any way to change the white background of notifications? I would like those darker as well.
I'm pretty sure you need an app called Power Shade - I'm just installing it myself to have a play with...

Thanks for the find! How is it working so far?
Use the Deep Black Theme from the themes topic. Really nice.
Google shows in Android 10 the nightmode, but it's only enabled via a switch.
Is someone able to make an app, that will change it automatically?
So that there is Light theme after sunrise and dark theme after sunset?
I think, this would be great and good looking.
Hi everyone.. I'm at a loss and don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Let's start saying I'm a super noob with this so all I do is just by trial and error.
Anyway, I have a theme I made with some custom image from my phone. I really like it, but no matter what I try, the color behind the notifications (not the quick menu, that one is fine with the shade of blue I picked) always remains white and so does the main settings background. (the settings background in the dialer app instead, for instance, changes fine, with the same file...??)
I don't understand what or where this white is located cause I've pretty much tried to replace everything white that isn't font or button colors... Yet no luck. Maybe it's hidden somewhere I can't see it?
Basically in the latest theme manager, I go to Home screen, settings, and under background I put a .9.png file. But this image is never reflected in the theme when I apply it. I don't know if this is what affects the notification color either, but I have no other clue what could be since it's the only 2 things that remain white in the theme!
I know it's possible to definitely change notification BG color in emui 10 themes because I have downloaded some who have green or red/blue notifications and those changed fine.... So I copied them from phone to pc and selected import in the theme studio cause I wanted to check where the difference was... But when I import them they revert to default. Maybe they're protected (rightfully so!) or something?
If anyone who makes themes could kindly help or tell me where the exact setting for the notification colors is, it would be a great help, or if anyone knows why that image doesn't get applied to the theme!
Thanks!
