yes, looks like a limitation of One UI, I had the same problem, but I use this app to make my own dark themes, is great and is free (you can donate as I did).
if you have any question I can help you, I've been using the app a lot.

Weird. For my is deep black. Maybe you need to adjust the options in theme galaxy. Or here is my project of theme galaxy which is pitch black. Tell me how it goes
Edit. I can't upload the project file. If you want it send me DM
The dark mode on my N950N is pitch black. Maybe it is your screen protector that needs cleaning

N950F

I have attached the apk file i created, for anyones use if interested..

Guys Almost Everyone of You Know That Our Lovely OnePlus 5 Uses AMOLED Display. But Do You Know How AMOLED Display Works? Let Me Explain :
LCDs like the ones you find on the*LG G3*or*HTC One (M8)*produces light with an LED backlight. The light shines through the pixels and into your eyeballs. In this case, a black pixel is simply one in which the pixel has turned opaque—it blocks all the light streaming in from the backlight. The backlight is still on just the same.
An AMOLED doesn't have a backlight at all. Instead, each little sub-pixel is like a tiny red, blue, or green colored light. If the screen is instructed to display black, it doesn't need to block any light, it simply doesn't light up any of the little colored sub-pixels.
So, If U See A Part of Screen That Is Showing Pure Black Colour, It Means It Isn't Showing Any Colour Resulting In The Best Black You Can Experience.
So, Now How To Save Power Using This?
First of All You Can Use The Stock Theme Option Inside Display Settings To Set The Theme To Dark. It'll Save Power During Stock Apps Screen.
In Third Party Apps, Use Substratum Theme Engine With Swift Black Theme (Most Preferred For Pure Black)
Here is Full Guide: (For Rooted Users Only)
1. Download Substratum Theme Engine (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=projekt.substratum)
2. Download Swift Black Theme (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brit.swiftblack.layers)
3. Run Substratum, Go To Swift Black Tab & Choose OOS 4 From The Top List.
4. Select Third Party Apps Only (Chrome, Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp, Gmail, Drive, etc)
WARNING : I Don't Recommend Theming System Apps Like Settings, SystemUI Because They're Already Dark Themed, But You Can Always Try On Your Own Risk, If Stuck On Bootloop, Just Flash Rescue.zip Inside Substratum Folder In Main Directory
5. Click On Install Overlays Button And Wait For It To Complete.
6. Reboot
Now Enjoy The Extra Juice Saved By AMOLED Display.

Did you know the difference between Swift black and Swift dark? Because i already own it. Is there much difference in darkness?
Grey vs Black?

I'm pretty sure Swift Dark is grey as opposed to Swift Black being true black.
Swift Black does not work properly on OnePlus 5. For example Youtube when trying to play playlist it crashes. Also some apps crash when swift black is turned on. So I just removed it.
That Sounds right. I also looked again in PlayStore.... So i think i buy also the dark one.

Doesn't that defeat the purpose because swift dark isn't actually black?
Sorry i meant the black one. The dark i already own.

Dark Is Grey/Gray & Black is True Black (The One Which Works On AMOLED).

Excellent dark theme.... Currently using on an Honor 8 and working flawlessly. Thanks for the theme..
Thanks

Thankjss

really amazing! THX!!!
Edit: ok, i tried the newest one of your themes.
Unfortunately, there is a little problem getting system notification requesters with it.
Some of them will have black font on nearly dark grey backgrounds.
BTW: Theme Editor works good for EMUI 5.
It is a problem notifications of individual applications. Some have white font, some black font. The bubble is therefore gray, both fonts can be read.
BTW, I dont create the themes in the application Theme Editor, I create them manually.

that was not the question!
But this apk is helpful to change some little things to my own wishes.
New version of theme. Bugs fixed.

ok,ok.. thx for the next build.
but for future builds, i recommend to use up counting version numbers! Like 5.01 -> v5.02 a.s.o.
Otherwise we will get different download links without possibility to see which version it is.
The theme is available at the Playstore now:

I was looking for a black emui theme, and yours is the first that i accepted on my device.
Your Total Eclipse theme (to support) was a shure buy, but i don't like it because it has no color .
Can you make a second one with same color as Pure Dark 5?
In the past i tried a black and white theme and found out that when used in sunny light i had very hard time seeing what i was doing. And because of this past experience I avoid to test another black and white/gray theme on my device. I like the green neon color of your pure dark 5.0 theme..
so i ask again : Can you do a Eclipse theme but with green neon color???
@hanniSK Just wanted to thank you for the Pure Dark 5.0 theme. Good job.

I guess the system resources has to be themed specially for EMUI.
I use the swift black theme as well, but also the theme "Alpha" theme for LG V30, which themes the system/notifications separately.
Alternatively, you can try to change the built-in dark theme for EMUI (Settings > Battery > Darken interface colors).
Thank you for the answer
I'll give a try the alpha theme
AND yes i have the dark interface in the settings
Unfortunately, several important applications don't work correctly when themed with Swift Black. Google, Chrome, Gmail, Maps and Agenda are a few. I contacted the developer, but there's not much that can be done because the don't have the P20 Pro for testing. A shame, and one of the things I miss from y Pixel 2.

They do work, but not correctly. In these applications, when you select text to copy to the clipboard, for instance, the pop-up menu text is unreadable. For me, this severely affects usability, and I gave up using Swift Black altogether.
What themes are compatible with emui because so far I haven't found any. Thanks!
Has anyone tried Swift Installer - Themes & color engine on the P20 Pro? I currently use it on my Note 8 but I'm getting the P20 Pro tomorrow and would be great to have it working.

Find black themes.
I've been trying to figure this out for a week now. Can't find a theme that supports it yet. My only disappointment with this phone is that I miss my dark apps and themes, but it's only a matter of time...
Try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=emui.en.com.gpix2dark

The only way is to wait untill will be released These compatible with EMUI 9.1. Till now no theme makes black notification or change icons on quick settings.
Install Huawei themes manager from playstore ,then download a dark theme( i have p30 pro dark theme,it has red accent). Turn on dark interface in the system and do a restart after installing the them.
You can change font and icons from themes as usual.
