Dark Mode available? - Sony Xperia 10 Questions & Answers

According to the rumors Android Pie do have this dark mode feature.
Is the dark mode available for this device? If yes how to enable it?
If no will do they implement that later?

I couldn't find it in the standard settings. Activated "Night Mode" under the developer options, but most of the screens are still bright and not dark. I hope it will be implemented very soon and also root and twrp.

Android N Developer Preivew 3 and Lightflow

Hi,
I had installed Android N Developer Preview and Lightflow. I am rooted, everything else is stock and before it was working fine. LED was properly lighting up for different notifications.
Yesterday I installed DP3 and rooted it. However, now, Lightflow can't seem to control led anymore. When I enable direct mode in lightflow, all colors on notifications are disabled and only black color is available. Also, after selecting mixer and direct app control option, I don't see the screen which should show me all the options to change color.

And the logcat is where?
Dont be surprised if many things that worked all the way up to p2 no longer work. They will have to be updated.
Hi, I am a noob. Can you please tell me how do I capture logcat for lightflow? I can enable logcat through adb it seems, however, do I need to add some filters or something?

Is there a way to activate sRGB or any similar mode and desaturate the screen?

There's an option in developer options as far as I know, but it doesn't work. Are there any other ways (unofficial ones included) to desaturate the screen a bit?
Thanks

Dark mode?

Is there a way to activate dark mode on the MI A2 via configurations or would I be forced to install a launcher, app, rom?

Enable in settings under display then u may also enable in messages app which also enable dark mode in the phone app. Settings is always white, unfortunately...
The u may also enable dark mode individually on apps that support that feature (XDA, reddit, twitter, etc).
Its the best you can do on stock rom.

Dark Theme keeps switching off

I keep having Dark Theme switching off when I connect to Android Auto in My 2020 Kia Soul. It happens about 50% of the time. I notice when it brings up Google Maps and it is in Light Theme. Is anyone else seeing this issue? Or have suggestions on how to correct this?
Stock, unlocked from Google Store & running on T-Mobile
Dark theme is heavily tied to the messages app, and when Android auto accesses messages it overrides the system theme with the current Android auto theme. There's no know did as I'm aware of, besides using a substrantum theme.

Try override force dark on developer options
This is nothing new. Every time I connect to android auto, dark theme is turned off.... It did this on all my pixels
Enable developer options in android auto, and then select it to be always dark.
There is also a setting to make it respect the phone, instead of the car, should you wish to do it that way,

What he's saying is the theme on the phone changes from dark to light when Android auto is connected. He's not talking about the display on the infotainment system. I just started using an Android 10 rom on my 5t, and today I experienced the same thing he's talking about. Not really a big deal as I don't use my phone while I'm driving. The display on the vehicle will coincide with the panel dimmer switch on the vehicle. Keep it maxed out it will never go into night mode, back it down 1 click and the Android auto display will automatically toggle between white and dark background as necessary

I know exactly what he is talking about, and if they force Android Auto to dark mode, the phone will stay in dark mode when connected to the vehicle.
As it is now, Android Auto is what controls the light/dark mode on the phone. If you override it on Android Auto developer settings, the phone will respect it how he wants.
You can also alternatively set it so that as opposed to the vehicle controlling it, the phone will determine it instead.

Yes, I could always tell when Android Auto would flip the Dark Theme off because Google Maps on the car display would flip to light mode. Once turning on developer mode in Android Auto and forcing the dark option, I have not had one instance of rebellion.
Thank you all for the troubleshooting and conversating!!

Twitter doesn't support systemwide dark mode?

I know how to enable dark mode on twitter but it doesn't follow system settings for android 10. I even turned on override force dark on developer settings. Anyone know how to enable this?

That's an issue with Twitter not supporting the system settings. Maybe if there's enough demand for it they'll make it an option.
