Very nice app (Feedback)

I really like this app, I'm very pleased with it!

It works great in most of the apps I tried it with, just in some apps it looks kinda odd. That's why I disabled the global "Force Dark Theme" option. And when I finally found out that you have to enable the dark mode on the Google app and on the launcher you're using as well, I finally have the Google app in dark as well.

I'm running it on a OnePlus 7T Pro and never had any issues with the dark mode loading too slowly.
[Android Apps and Games] smeejaytee:
I managed to get this to work but when I force dark mode Facebook is iffy and messenger really goes mad I have tried to not force it and enable manually but that doesn't seem to turn dark mode on in any apps.

I really like the concept I hope I can work this out as it's frustrating it does exactly what I want it to do but it has since minor discrepancies

"DarQ also provides an option to apply the system dark theme (as well as selectable force dark) only after sunset and before sunrise, protecting your eyes when it's most needed. "

Does Gboard also gets dark after sunset?
[Android Apps and Games] Ch3vr0n:
Gboard already has a native dark mode.

Does anyone know how to make it work in one ui 2.0? I did all the steps for the non-root alternative and still not work the per app option...just the the system dark theme and forcing all the apps

Hoping someone can help me out here; I have a OnePlus 5t running DerpFest Android 10, rooted with Magisk, and can't get this app to work at all. Granted it root just fine, accessibility service enabled just fine, but not a single one of my apps is changed whether I force it globally or choose it from the list.

It has a dark theme, but doesn't switch according to the system theme.

Force Dark Theme Issue:

Device: Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005, Havoc OS Q 3.1, Magisk Root. The force dark theme always resets after a reboot and I have to manually turn it on again. I do an automatic nandroid on daily basis via Tasker so my device reboots everyday and have to manually turn on Force Dark Theme on daily basis which is really annoying.

I've got this error when trying to launch the script in Ubuntu:

rundarq-linux-mac.sh: 3: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

EDIT: Ok, the tutorial in the app mentioned I have to use 'sh' to run the script, while the correct one is 'bash'.

Problem solved.
[Android Apps and Games] Rakesh Mahto:
It supports Android 9 ??
[Android Apps and Games] naszrudd:
Any chance to port this to Android Pie?
[Android Apps and Games] Maryan40k:
Works on Huawei?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Try it if it's Android 10.

How to install?
[Android Apps and Games] Nhyphk:
Sorry to bother, but there'd nothing that can be done? I mean, If global force dark mode can recognize an app opening fast why can't the app list?
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Global force dark isn't recognising anything, it's just always on.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Download the app from XDA labs in the first post, as the first post says. Run the script from a computer if you're not rooted, as the first post says.
[Android Apps and Games] Paranorman:
Doesn't work for me on my Oneplus 7T.

I enabled it using the non-root method, it says that the service is enabled, but the app still asks to enable the service, done this multiple times now, no luck :(
[Android Apps and Games] otakukj:
Not working with wechat

This doesn't work with wechat! I have tried so many solutions but nothing seems to work. Not force dark mode native to Android, nor DarQ, nor hex, nor synergy... =( I really hope there will be a good solution soon!
[Android Apps and Games] Anyeong:
Ty:)
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Reboot the phone and try again, it works on my 7T Pro so there's no reason it wouldn't work on the 7T.
[Android Apps and Games] Paranorman:
I tried everything,rebooted phone, reinstalled app, downloaded the batch file again, still the same result, hence i posted that
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Ok, run the script in verbose mode (-v) and see if it prints an error.

[MENTION=3563640]Quinny899[/MENTION]: Thanks for this awesome app! It makes Facebook finally the color it deserves / desperately needs. [emoji56]

I have a problem with the app though... Rooted and obviously on Android 10 (One UI 2, Galaxy S10) with granted / enabled accessibility service.

It runs when I start DarQ and the service is running. If I'm rebooting though, it tells me that the accessibility service is running, but the app can't connect to the root service and I should reboot. Obviously this doesn't fix it - instead when I then close the app and re-open it, everything runs as expected.

I also tried to give the app storage access and disabled the optimized battery usage with the same result though. Any way I can provide any useful logs or so to help you fixing this?

EDIT: There is something even more fishy than I thought... Now, after half an hour, Facebook was white again. Than I thought... Damn, DarQ is not been running... Opened it, than it asks me again to enable the accessibility service..... Uhm... Enabled it, but I then realized that if I force close the app, the accessibility service for DarQ is also automatically turned off.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
That's normal behaviour, force stopping an app disables its accessibility service. Nothing that can be done there.
[Android Apps and Games] Darkat70:
Still not excluding apps even though i uncheck them. And having to run ADB every reboot is very frustrating. Especially if you are not near acomputer.
[Android Apps and Games] dr4go:
I had no clue that this is normal behavior. Thanks for pointing that out... Then it really might be that it's related to some app closing in the background on OneUI. I will try to find out what's causing it to stop... Thanks again.
[Android Apps and Games] Seagold:
Working well for me.

I'm rooted.

[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Having all apps checked and then unchecking some to disable them is not the intended use of that feature, what you are seeing is exactly why I'm not adding a blacklist feature.

And the need to run an ADB script will never be changed. It's that, you root your phone or you can't use DarQ. Simple as that.
[Android Apps and Games] Darkat70:
Im checking the ones i want from scratch not unchecking what i don't want, and if thats not the intended use then per - app is an incorrect advertisement. Its obviously all or nothing.

And if its only intended for root, then it should state that not mentioning non root use is possible.
[Android Apps and Games] sic4672:
"It's that, you root your phone or you can't use DarQ. Simple as that."

I'm reading that as 3 options, but that's just me I guess...
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
It's intended for you to check the ones you want, you said you were unchecking. It's not all or nothing at all, as almost every other user has found.

It works without root, but only if you run the script. This is mentioned multiple times in the first post, and is explained fully in its own FAQ document. It's not exactly hidden.
[Android Apps and Games] ujjalbiswas137:
In my Linux it shows:

sh: 0: Can't open startdarq-linux-mac.sh

[Android Apps and Games] Seagold:
I have to run this app Everytime I reboot...

I'm rooted
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
It should start on boot with root, make sure you're not running anything that might block it from running
[Android Apps and Games] Unknowx:
Thx for the mod

is there a way to activate dark mode by excluding apps? example Telegram x is displayed in this way.

and you could totally clear the standard tone of the oxygen os "black gray" with a "Total black?
[Android Apps and Games] Darkat70:
I excluded them meaning i didnt have them checked

What happens is Facebook, messenger and fluid navigation gestures theming does not like dark mode. So heres what i do

1 . Reboot Phone

2 . I do not activate force dark mode in development settings

3 . Run adb for the DarQ

4 . Allow DarQ permissions and services required

5 . Check apps required only for Dark Mode

6 . Activate DarQ Dark Mode

Apps are now Dark, including Facebook, Messenger and FNG.

What is happening is every single app that does not have a dark option but can be forced is dark even if its not checked.

So i only get the same effects as i do when i select force dark mode in development settings.

So like i said in this instance all i get is either All or Nothing.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
If you have FNG set to dark, turn it off. It's an overlay, it's always "open" and will cause the service to get confused.
[Android Apps and Games] Rufusss:
This is my favourite thing ever! Thank you! I can happily use Duolingo while going to sleep without having to invert the screen. It works really well with DarQ and looks really polished. Only oddity is it flashes back to normal un-dark mode when the next page loads; maybe this is something that can be solved though :)
[Android Apps and Games] Darkat70:
FNG is set to light, but what happens when I use dark mode is the gesture bubbles colour seems to invert lighter.

Facebook and Mesenger, General newsfeed background is ok but settings and everything else is white background on white text. Same happening with messenger all the chat list background is white and so is text, but the individual message background is dark, sent message bubbles are normal but receive message bubbles are a kind of off white with white text makes it impossible to read.

See screenshots.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Often animations and scrims don't get inverted which may be causing this, nothing I can do unfortunately
[Android Apps and Games] Rufusss:
Oh well, that's a shame but still massively beats having my eyes scolded every time I pull down the navbar while making a faux nightmode by inverting!
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Hold on I think I'm entirely missing what you're complaining about - are you saying Facebook and Messenger don't play well with force dark? If so, that's entirely known and has been the case since day 1. It's even specifically noted in the FAQ that they don't work.
[Android Apps and Games] Darkat70:
Im not complaining about them not working, i said that even when i selected which apps DarQ will attempt to Force Dark, which i did not select Facebook, Messenger or FNG. DarQ still forces those apps dark.

So for my purpose i wanted to use a dark mode for apps like a banking app, some google apps like opinion rewards which work with dark mode, but i dont want Facebook and Mesenger to be dark. Which is what DarQ suggests per app based. But what DarQ is doing is still focing ALL apps dark.
[Android Apps and Games] Darkat70:
I completely uninstalled, reinstalled, enabled service, ran script. Did not activate Force Dark Mode in either developer settings or in DarQ.

Only selected 2 enabled apps Google Opinion Rewards & Bank. Those apps were not running, ran both apps and Dark Mode, including Facebook, Messenger, FNG and every other app.

So even though only 2 apps were on the enable list, everything is still applied dark mode
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Yeah something is definitely not working as intended there, what device is this on?
[Android Apps and Games] Darkat70:
Samsung S10+

Facebook seems to be a system app, Messenger isn't. I have System Dark Mode enabled. FB is not Dark though unless i force Dark Mode in Dev.
[Android Apps and Games] SCVii:
Time for the play store

Hi so I've just downloaded, darq and then booted it up and I couldn't even get to use the thing because it wanted accessibility. I do a lot of confidential work on my phone so it's pretty off putting for someone none tech to read "this app can interact on your behalf".

Could you guys not find a work around for that and maybe add it to Google play. I imagine it'd be very popular - might even be able to make money some how - not with ads though, dear god not with pop up ads.

Problem parsing the package.

I have a Redmi note 5 pro.
[Android Apps and Games] yochananmarqos:
You'll see that warning for any app that uses an Accessibility Service. This app needs it to detect what app you're using to apply dark mode on the fly.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
What Android version?
[Android Apps and Games] Godecki:
For some reason, DarQ broke one off my apps. It broke text in Frost for Facebook. I am using black background and now the text is only black, it won't change to any other colour.

What I've tried:

- clearing Frost's data and starting fresh

- reinstalling Frost

- rebooting the device

- disabling/re-enabling every possible settings in DarQ

- deinstalling/re-installing DarkQ

- combining the above actions

I am using OnePlus 7 Pro with 10.0.3 build. I can't get text to be displayed correctly. I am sure this issue is caused by DarQ as just before enabling it it was fine.
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Are other apps broken too? Possible force dark may be stuck on.
[Android Apps and Games] Godecki:
Never mind, it isn't DarQ's fault after all - just a coincidence, a bug in Frost occured at the same time.
[Android Apps and Games] v.konvict:
I think its a bug on facebook. I also use friendly for facebook and it was behaving the same way. Still is by the way. So removed the the dark theme on the app and applied a Darq dark theme
[Android Apps and Games] Gruber008:
Unbelievable work!

Even though I'm using Swift Installer, there are a couple of apps that can't be themed and your app really made them dark mode.

Even though Facebook and Revolut app are not fully "functional" it's still much better - yes, I know you can't do anything about it, just saying.

Thanks for this app, really appreciate your work.

hi [MENTION=3563640]Quinny899[/MENTION]

Sorry again if this issue has been pointed out before.

I faced an issue where those force-dark enabled apps are not take effect at the "cold start", but not "hot start". Force-dark only take effect when enter second or inner UI /Activity/Dialog. Which means that i have partial dark/white theme together on my apps (e.g: main UI page showed with white theme but inner page/dialog with dark theme).

[Android Apps and Games] GreySquare:
Really cool app, but yeah, unfortunately most enabled apps that looks good with forced dark mode, most of the time just can't load force dark mode fast enough and apps remains light (Using Root, Accessibility enabled).

Hope there's maybe some workaround will be found in the future

P.S. When using auto dark mode option from this app, GBoard seem to change themes just fine (Tried some other scheduling (sunset/sunrise) apps in the past and GBoard always remained light)
[Android Apps and Games] parkerlreed:
So a blacklist/"white"list is out of the question? I would love to keep dark mode on for most things but exclude some applications and make them white.
[Android Apps and Games] hightension:
On Facebook light breaks top icons . If possible make a blacklist option so if there are problems that app will be excluded
[Android Apps and Games] blaaaazedup:
Yes, this. If there was a possibly a way to implement a white list....maybe....
[Android Apps and Games] skivnit:
Any comment on this?the script runs fine and apps get themed but as soon as I unplug my phone all apps go back to white and launching darq gives me the service not running error
[Android Apps and Games] Quinny899:
Sounds like something is killing the service. Not a lot I can do without the device.
[Android Apps and Games] MrPhilo:
Is this not possible?
[Android Apps and Games] skivnit:
Yep I just can't figure out what it is and it's killing another service using adb (brevent )
[Android Apps and Games] EstherTakumi:
Thank you for this awesome app!

At first it doesn't work, it only showing partial black for the app that im select.

Now everything working fine, i got fully functional dark mode for the app that I use.

DarQ issues on Huawei P30 (ELE-L29)

Thank you for the DarQ app!

I just want to note that on my Huawei P30 (ELE-L29) freshly upgraded to EMUI 10 (based on Android 10), I needed to restart the phone after installation of the DarQ app (and enabling all the required permissions) and before running the script on the computer. When I ran the script before restarting the phone, I had an permission-denied error.

After that I could run the DarQ app without issues. However, it does nothing.

Specifically I have checked Enable Dark Theme only (other toggle are unchecked) and to the list of Enabled Apps I have added Google Docs and Google Sheets only. Then, I forced stop both Google apps and run them. Both are light.

This issue, however, might be due to the fact that in the Developer options, I have not found the Override force-dark option.

Update: I have just found out that in the getprop, there are the following two properties containing the work dark:

$ getprop | grep dark
[persist.sys.hw.forcedark_policy]: [0]
[persist.sys.hw_forcedark_0]: [false]

However, I could not change their value without root. The

debug.hwui.force_dark

was added by the DarQ script; it is not here after restart before running the script.
