Happened to me too, I think it's just some bug of gboard. Go on apkmirror and download the lastest beta version of gboard, install it, then try enable/disable dark theme and see if it works.
It fixed it for me

thx for the advise.
It's so annoying that google can't even work out such little things for their own products. Faceunlock still doesn't work for me with this patch, at least they send a replacement device pretty quickly.

The face unlock bug can be fixed by resetting the device from the settings menu, there's no need to replace the phone as it's just a software bug.
Just make sure to backup what you need because it wipes eveything you have on your phone.

Hi sorry i didn't quite follow. How do you set gboard for auto function for dark mode?

Nothing to set, it does that automatically.
When you first flash the march update, the gboard version probably has a bug that keeps it on light theme even with dark mode active.
Once you install a newer version, for example from apkmirror, it should fix this and follow the system theme again, no need to set it manually.

I have version 9.1.6.29, I think there is no way to select two specific themes, it automatically switches between the "Google blue light" and "Google blue dark", the ones with the classic Pixel blue color in the preview

You can try the dark mode fix:
https://mobilesyrup.com/2020/01/04/force-gboard-follow-android-system-dark-mode-toggle-2/
Basically, create a keyboard theme then delete it so you're back on the default. Toggling dark mode off and on to test if it works.
If it doesn't, remember that Gboard during the day time default theme, does match the accent color set in the OS theme.

Night Light mod enabler ( only Nexus 6p ) 17 MB

I wanted to say thank you to this awesome community,
Nothing better than just contributing ... ^^
Wanted just ( Night light ) back on my Nexus 6p
Without those heavy mods with all those wallpapers and stuff.
So I just removed all those stuff, and only kept what must for night light to work.
Never tried on Nexus 5x, .... Just 6p
Again .... Thank you all

Don't know if intended, but this also installs the pixel launcher.

I've kicked it in favor for ruthless launcher. Still works.
Does it work non rooted?
Great :laugh:
Does it really work for you? Because on my 6P, Ok it enables the Nightlight configuration screen, but the screen tint stays the same no matter
Works great. For some reason my 6P does not play well with being rooted, and I was missing flux. This took care of that for me. Only thing I wish is that I still had the hollow navigation bar icons instead of the filled in ones. Small price to pay though to have night light working.
Flashed this on RR and now it keeps rebooting...what have i done wrong ?
Thanks
Flashed onto Lineage OS 15.1 and I am am boot looping. Wish this worked
This doesn't work properly after the newest security update. It installs and turns on fine, but I can't access the settings from the tile anymore and can't change schedule settings. When I tap on schedule, the pop-up menu appears then instantly disappears. So it's stuck on my old setting of "sunset to sunrise", which is fine but for those that might want to change it...
Not working on Pixel Experiance, bootlooping
Which Android version is required?

Dark mode Google discover?

I am using Nova prime with the companion to get Google discover with a right swipe. Unfortunately, discover does not use the dark theme. Anything I can do to change this?

i'm pretty sure u have an option in nova settings to enable dark mode on that

I already set Nova to dark mode, didn't help. In LineageOS 16 with dark mode turned on it works, must be a miui thing...

Dark Mode?

Let's discuss about dark mode. For me both light and dark has its pro's and cons. Let's hear yours.

Found out that the dark mode really just "inverts" colors...for example: All my facebook notifications, the profile picture for the person that made the notification shows like the colors have been inverted. Pretty lazy way to implement dark mode imo...not sure if it's on FB to fix it or Google/OnePlus lol. Looks very tacky though.
Seems to me as though if an app doesn't have a dark mode to switch to the statusbar icons go black on the dark background making them impossible to see when dev settings force dark mode is on. Maybe there's a setting I'm missing. Kinda like it either way, though, so dealing with the minor inconvenience.

Yes, i can confirm the same behavior.
Also if anyone is using 3rd party launcher like Lawnchair then the google search widget on the launcher shows white/light text. Mind you this is not the standard google search widget rather it is part of the dock.
There are other few issues with dark mode as well, will post it when i remember.
The fact that I can change at will is good enough for me. I typically change to dark for a few days until I get tired. Often when outside in bright daylight dark doesn't work well for my taste. I spend about 25% on dark.
For me the play store has gone black today. Looks nice.
I can not live with the force dark mode flag.
Comments in facebook are white with light grey text "not readable"
The Google apps that have native dark mode look fine to me, inside or outside.
Still waiting for the server side release of Dark mode for Gmail, it will look great.

Yes..I feel the same. Poor implementation of dark mode. Just inverting colors make some things look weird, glitchy and somethings unreadable. I have returned back to light mode.
Dark mode is not working correctly because app developers have yet to implement it properly. The OnePlus setting is not a true dark mode. I believe iOS 11 had a similar feature that was never fully implemented by app developers until iOS 13. Android 10 is playing catch-up in this area.
The Google apps, however, are being rolled out properly. I have proper dark mode on all of those with the exception of Gmail and Google Assistant. This could take some time to fully implement.

Nokia 7 Plus Dark Mode - Instagram

I got dark mode for Instagram on my Nokia 7 Plus. Anybody else who has received dark mode for Instagram? I'm quite surprised that I have received this while OnePlus hasn't received the Dark mode for Instagram yet.

Try Signing up for Instagram Beta testing by searching on google for "Instagram Beta Tester".
After that, enable the Dark mode in settings under theme. Should work.
Hey, I've the dark mode too.
But I don't like it.
How can I change it back to normal?
I checked the normal Settings / Display and the App itself.
Google Photos and the searchbar at the homescreen is also black.
Does anybody have a hint for me?
Thank you.

You have to go on system> advanced> developer options> night mode: Always off. Then you will have Instagram, Play store e Google Photos back in white theme
Hey, I have the same on my Nokia 6 2017.
The play store and Instagram are set on dark mode. That litterally came out of nowhere... Haha.
Thanks for your lightings

So you suggest to wait instead of download the beta?
After the Update the Device is slow, I have to reduce the animation to 0.5x to make it snappy.
The battery is worse now only a day worth now as compared to at least 2 days.
There are no AOD Faces.
The notifications shade is a long list and that 1 notification always stays there to remind you are in beta.
Dark Mode Everywhere makes everything dark even the images in the Apps so I keep it off.
