I don't understand why 99% of the notifications in the status bar work with night mode, but 1% doesn't.
This is not an issue on the lockscreen, because you can customize those notifications, however we can't customize the "normal" status bar notifications.
In this case the app causing a problem is pretty old, BUT, I use another app that's even older, it was even removed from the play store by now, and that one works fine.
Anyway, example for those that haven't seen it themselves:

Is there a way to fix this? I already tried systemui tuner but it's not in there.
PS Simply setting a black theme has the exact same effect.
I have the same issue and it's annoying.
Goodlock is the way to go!
>>quickstar settings. It allows you to change the background color of the notifications, notification drawer and also font color. I've set mine to deep black which I prefer better than dark gray in default night mode.
Goodlock app can be found in Galaxy store in selected countries. If you're in a country whwre goodlock is not available, there is a similar app in XDA which you can use.

Hey,
Im looking for an option to change one or several of the following options:
- change quick settings font color in notification panel
- change font color of app notifications
- set background color for app notifications only, not quick settings background
take a look at this screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/KnWq2s1.png
I want to keep the blurred style with 100% transparency for the quick settings background. But the black text from app notifications is hard to read sometimes, so I would like to change that to white. If that's not possible, make quick settings font black as well. If that's not possible, add a white background to app notifications only.
I can't find anything how to do that. Hope somebody can help me out.
edit: SOLVED
wow, after searching for hours with no result, I found something shortly after I made this thread. I used this to achieve this
so you used this to change the background of the notifications from white to match your selected notification background? I have been trying to figure out how to make the notification background not white...

Well, yeah, I changed the notification background color with LPThemer, but that's not what this post was about and I did it because of another reason. I was just looking for something that allows me to change text color of notifications, because the default black looks ****ty with transparency. It's default black because the default background is white. I used Blurred System UI to make the background transparent as well as add the blurred effect. Then I used LPThemer to change notification text color to white. Then I noticed notifications background was still white (not transparent) in Lock Screen, but the text color remained white. It's hard to read white on white so I used LPThemer to change the background to a half-transparent black. This background is only displayed in lock screen though.

Sweet I think I'm going to do almost the exact thing you did because I can't stand the white background on notifications blinding me at night... Plus it just looks bad. Good to know I can change the font to color to something legible. Good job
Help me

Did you enable it in developer options?
From what I have seen it is not available in all regions.
Touchwiz doesn't have SystemUI Tuner. The gear will not spin with the original SystemUI.apk and using Samsung Good Lock the gear will spin but It will not open anything since there's no code in Settings app.

It does make sense that it would not work on Samsung. Not sure what I was thinking.

True, but almost every feature from System UI Tuner is already available in Touchwiz:
Editable notification drawer toggles: Edit button in statusbar header.
Battery Percentage: Settings > Battery > Show Battery Percentage.
Dark UI theme: Well, you have hundreds of dark themes in Theme Store including Material Dark.
Only Demo Mode is absent.
Well I just need to make the notification bar nontransparent, I don't want to change anything else in the UI. I have a lock wallpaper that has a white area at the top which makes the notification icons basically invisible.

Sadly that's not something you can do with SysUI tuner either in Stock Android. You can edit the image to add a 48p height bar to cover the statusbar and set it as a new lockscreen wallpaper. Also, if you're rooted, use GravityBox or Perfect Statusbar. By the way by default in Marshmallow when you set a white wallpaper the statusbar icons turn to the opposite so you can see them. You may want to tune your image brightness with an Image editor in order to trigger the inverted statusbar.
On Android 7 and below, a couple screen dimmer apps, like Darker, were able to dim the nav bar and status bar. Seems Android 8 kills that. Any workarounds or apps updated to d the nav bar?
Was wondering about that as well.
My main problem is the notification drawer, which burns my retinas at night.
Currently using Twilight.

I also use Twilight (have done for years) and have the same issue. It's disappointing that Sony removed the standard Night Mode from Oreo, because I've seen it on a mate's Pixel and it works very well - like Twilight did on previous versions.
I use the xBlack - Red Theme where the buttons are just grey dots and it's ok for my eyes. So maybe that's a solution.

There are ways to mod the looks of your phone without having to root Andromeda can be set up with a couple of ADB commands, this then gives you access to Substratum.
The modules that I use most are SX DarkRes, Swift Black and Spectrum.
Spectrum is probably the best place to start for custom dark nav bar.
Hello,
I just bought A8+.
I want to change the background color of the navigation bar to black.
There is a setting to change the background color but it does not have black as an option.
I googled this and found an app called "NavBar Apps" which lets you set the background color to black.
But the problem with this app is that whenever the navigation bar appears, for one second the default background color is displayed and then it is changed to black. This is quite irritating.
Any idea how I can get the stable black background (preferably without third-party apps)?
Thanks

Try these cmds (make sure you got a pc with your phone plugged, and make sure you installed adb and Samsung USB Drivers):
Code:
adb shell settings put global navigationbar_color -0016777216
adb shell settings put global navigationbar_current_color -0016777216
Hi maybe someone can help me.
I'm using the phone on OxygenOS13. Theme is standard due to the fact that the theme store isn't working probably.
My problem is, after adding the gmail widget on my home screen it gets a light red background. My Gmail settings are dark mode and if I open Gmail it is darkgrey. But at my homescreen the widgets background color is an ugly light red and I have to clue how this can be changed or what causes this?
Does someone also have the same problem?
Greetings!

The widget seems to follow system colors maybe wallpaper based or the default ones that depends on what was your selection
Thank you for your reply. I tried changing the accent color. But this doesn't help. The background is the standard one. But I'll try changing it. Ist there a setting to toogle if it depends on the background or not?
I am having the same issue. When I change my background to solid black, it always adds a green tint to some apps and the keyboard. I have tried about every setting to stop it in the wallpaper and home screen options, but it won't. Not sure what to do.
**EDIT... I found the answer by some stroke of luck. It would seem it's a google thing. My accent color looks exactly like the full screen pic included in the post below. There is no way to turn it off. **
