HTC 10 dark (black) dailer after Nougat update?

[bernard.cvek]

My HTC 10 received Nougat OTA update a few days ago and everything is great, no problems at all, it feels even faster and smoother. Some users reported problems with wifi, my connection is now much, much better and faster, on my home network AND at work.

There's just one really small detail that drives me crazy. I have dark theme installed and everything IS dark as it was on MM, except phone dailer. Even dailer itself is dark but when calling it goes white and that wasn't the case in MM, that screen was dark too. Any idea?

I reinstalled the theme, tried other themes and it's all the same.

European (Croatia) unlocked, as it is, not rooted.

Dialler uses a different apk now when in a call (InCallUI.apk), so I guess HTC have to update their theme engine you theme this as well.

Of course, if you're running a custom ROM, then you can use a themed InCallUI.

Thank you for your answer. So, I'll have to wait and deal with it.
I mean, I will not root my phone for just that one reason.

Yes, I have the HTC Bolt, which came with 7.0 Nougat outta the box, and changing dialer color doesn't quite work how its supposed to, so I think HTC haven't quite updated it yet as not many of their devices have nougat yet...

If you happen to use the online theme maker of HTC, then you would know the caller background was default as dark.
It could be the nougat update changed the default setting.
What you can do is to go the online theme maker, build a dark one for yourself to see if it works. It could be that the designer just left the setting as default, which is white (bright).
I love bright ones so all the themes I made are forced into bright caller background.

That change came with nougat and, yes, I did make new theme in theme maker and it's all the same - everything is dark as it should be and as it was in MM except that one (InDail) screen. It looks like change have to be made in Theme maker itself...

I have the same problem. Having created a personal theme in Maker Pro, the In Call screen remains as the default, and hasn't changed with my theme. When previewing the theme on the website, the In Call screen shows correctly with my theme, but it doesn't show on the phone (HTC M9 and HTC 10). If anyone has any updates on this, it would be appreciated.

Thank you OP and others-this too was driving me crazy this weekend along with Google Play services not working. I'm a black dialer person and am surprised HTC doesn't have this as an option out of the box. If I find a solution I will share. I joined xda just to post this-hope I did it right ?

Yeah I'm having the same problem and I use a custom theme I made myself.

To fix Google Play just turn your phone off for 2 to 5mins turn back on and it should work.
