Dark theme. Notification drop down and settings dark instead of white. Possible ?

[THS1989]

White display on amoled kills battery faster.

Is it possible to change it to grey / black ?

Kind of like stock android on nexus.

 

[anuartahir]

Yeah. Im also thinking the same thing. Tried looking at the theme store but im already on Nova Launcher.

Would look dope if the notifications shade color is in nexus shade.

Download the black theme from the theme store. It's free and makes all the white black. Drop down, messages, etc. Your nova icons and everything else stys the same.

 

[mshagg]

Yeah there's a bunch of themes that will change the notification area, SMS app etc to dark colours. Just remember to re-apply your icon pack afterwards if you dont like the one that the theme includes.

can you share "the black theme name"? there are many in the theme store. I'm using Samsung's Good Lock app, which gives System UI similar to stock android. one drawback is that AOD email, text msg icons, etc., will not appear on the AOD screen.

I tried this now and its awesome. Thanks for sharing.

Ahhhh... Those themes do not change the colors of the notifications... I prefer all dark background so I use GoodLock.

You are rooted, why don't you just go with Substratum?

I use the Balance icon theme with whichever other theme I use. You just have to apply it afterward. Balance matches stock Android and fits more with 3rd party apps icons.

It works for me.

thanks... in my case, i've been using Black Edition for several months on my Note5, S7Edge and now the Note7.

Sorry but that is false.

You can NOT argue with physics. Black screens save power because that is inherent to AMOLED design.

There is no backlight therefore the pixels themselves consume power to emit light.

Now your S7 Edge has 100mAh more than my Note 7 and lacks features like S Pen, Iris Scanner etc therefore it will get a bit longer battery life.

Goodlock is a great choice as well. You need to download the apk from APK Mirror but you have the option of setting all of you notifications dark or light. Plus it gives your entire statusbar a vanilla android look.

So far, I'm using Material Black which is free and created by Samsung. Works perfect.
