Unlocked S10+ received Android 10 update on Dec 25th and almost a week later, no dark mode available in gmail app.
All other google apps have dark mode, s10 set to dark theme.
Have rebooted, force stopped, cleared cache and data, cleared device cache in recovery, enabled force dark mode in developer options, loaded apkmirror latest version, uninstalled update. Nothing adding the theme selection option general settings.
Anyone else have this issue? According to Google all Android 10 devices should have gmail dark mode now.
As a temporary solution you can enable "force Dark Mode" in the Developer settings.

Tried that, doesn't do anything for gmail.
Hm, strange. Try to wipe the cache in the recovery.

Yup, also tried that, no change.
Try the newest version from apkmirror:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...644823-release-android-apk-download/download/
The PlayStore is sometimes strange, because it doesn't offer the latest version.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Tried that as well, I'm running that version, Dec 4th release.
Dec 4th? The latest is Nov 21st.
Do you have this setting in the Options?

Yes, same version. Build date is 11.21, but play store shows dec 4th date.
I do not have that option, no theme option.
It is a bit strange, but when I install the Version from APKmirror, it works. I'm showing it in the Video:

Do you have an other Theme installed, because you have 5 bars in the network-strengh. Default is 4.

No other theme that I know of. Never installed anything, entirely stock.
I did everything in the video you did, still nothing. Did multiple times. So strange.
My Gmail works in dark mode

My last solution would be to uninstall the Gmail-App via ADB and then reinstall the Version from APKmirror.
But I'm not sure if this is possible, because ADB deletes the App for the current user but it keeps the file in the /system-app folder.
In the worst case, you have to factory reset the phone to use gmail again.
There is also a tutorial on XDA: https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
Try Clear cache and clear data from the app. This worked for me.

I may wait a few weeks. I'm wondering if this is a google server side issue not recognizing my phone is recently upgraded to android 10. Factory resetting for dark gmail is a tall order.

I've tried that already. But may try again.
Disable system wide dark mode and then check your Gmail app you should see the setting. It worked for me
Thanks. I deleted some gmail accounts (had several in my gmail app), cleared cache, force stopped, trigger dark mode systemwide off and on, and now it is working.

Hi all, i've searched far and wide to resolve this but nothing seems to work that i've tried. I cannot sign in to add my google calendar to my phone. I'm able to do everything else: get email, get to playstore, etc. As far as I know i do not have 2 step verification setup. I'm on 4.4.2, rooted. When i try to add my existing google account to the calendar i get "couldn't sign in. There was a problem communicating with the Google servers. Try again later."
I dont want to have to do a factory reset if possible.
Thanks all!

Clear cache and dalvik cache, and delete data from the calendar app. If that doesn't work, uninstall the app, repeat the clearing procedure, then reinstall. It should work:fingers-crossed:
@ldeveraux thanks for the reply. I tried what I think is the process above but still no luck. Maybe I'm not following what you suggested correctly. I went into the data/dalvik cache directory and wiped it out, cleared the calendar data. But not quite sure what you mean by "clear cache" in the very first part of what you wrote. Can you maybe give me a step by step with a little more info? Thanks again.

You're rooted and have safestrap installed?
1) Go to App info on the calendar app and Clear Data
2) reboot to safastrap.
3) go to wipe menu, advanced wipe, then check ONLY Cache and Dalvik Cache
4) wipe these 2 ONLY, then reboot.
If that doesn't work, uninstall the calendar app, reboot, reinstall the app from the play store.
I have no clue if this will work, but it's worth a shot

Hi, Im rooted but dont have Safestrap installed. I guess I can add it back if it'll fix this problem. Do I absolutely need it?

Hello again, I added back Safestrap and followed the above and still the same results. I appreciate the effort. Any other ideas out there?? Also I can't uninstall the calendar app. I guess its the stock one that came with the phone. I can freeze or uninstall it with TB but i don't see it available on the play store.

I'm getting the feeling you didn't do this as I explained. You shouldn't delete the files or folders in a file explorer app. It should be done like I explained in SS.
And you can uninstall google Calendar with any uninstaller app or TB, either way. the new app to download is here, so yes it exists:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.calendar&hl=en

I did follow your instructions once i re-installed Safestrap. But unfortunately still having the issue.
Its possible to clear the cache and davlik cache on stock using stock recovery and without root i thought id note..

You need to tell us more about your setup. What software version, stock? Bootloader version? If you are running OTA OG5, then first try to remove your google account, then clear data for Google play services and Google play store. Reboot, add Google account back and see. If not working then factory reset.
It ended up being an xposed module causing the issue.
Twice in the 48 hours since I installed 7.0 (via the beta programme), I've been typing something using the stock on-screen keyboard (last time was in Chrome) when I've hit horrible lag - like 10 seconds of freezing, then it does something, then more freezing and repeat.
Anyone else?

The BEST advice if you're suffering from lags and strange issues after a major update, you should back up your data and perform a hard reset (Factory Data Reset) preferably through recovery. That will remove any remaining leftover files from the updates like backup files and the like.

hmm then try and wipe your cache and dalvik in recovery and also in the app itself. If clearing everything out maybe Fastbooting factory images when they are uploaded will reset whatever maybe corrupt.

In the recovery I have do it already. So I have entered in the stock recovery and have selected Factory reset. Factory reset will wipe everything (cache and dalvik cache too)
very smooth for me.
Maybe you need reset your device,bro
As the title says, my phone wont download any files nor download/install apps through the play store. I tried clearing cache and data from downloads and play store, and from recovery, nothing helps.. Did anyone else have this issue? (works fine on wi-fi, also clean install-flashed the latest image from google, also had this on the last beta preview NRD80M).

I had the same problem. My problem was causes by the app "Block This! 2.1". This is an advertisement-blokker.
After closing this app all went fine.
Do you have an ad-blokker, may-be?

After reading your reply, even though i know i don't have any suspicious apps, i rebooted my phone into safe mode, the issue still persists.. I think it has something to do with me not selecting "Set up as new device" when i first booted my phone after the flash, maybe something from my old backup corrupted the download process, i guess i have to do another factory reset and set it up as a new device... :'(
Hi guys, i Just bought the Nexus 6p, so Nexus Noob here, I downloaded and installed all the security updates month by month and all went well until I got the 7.1.1 update
The phone download 1.2 GB then when I tapped restart and install, the countdown for install started and when it finished it just said your phone is up to date, then when I tapped check it again said there's a 1.2 GB update for Nougat and started to download it from scratch
I did this three times and even wiped cache partition in between but it was just the same
I appreciate any help
Thank you
Update: I did a factory reset and now it just says my phone is up to date, It won't even show the 7.1.1 update to install anymore.
Download the 7.1.1 OTA image from Google, then sideload it using adb from recovery.

That's great to hear. I wonder if it pulled the downloaded OTA during the reset somehow and flashed it... Either way, glad it worked!
I got a question? I am rooted, running dirty unicorns and have received the 7.1.1 update notification. Obviously I don't want to update as it'll probably brick or take root from away. How does one get rid of the ota notification?

You can disable notifications by holding the it
Update: After the last factory reset and checking for the update a few times it finally showed the update again, downloaded it and installed it just fine
Finally on 7.1.1 yay, only problem is Data doesn't work anymore
did 6.01 ota popped out on your end? just got a new nexus 6p and from oct 2015 version it showed ota directly to 7.1.1... no 6.01?

Did you try clearing the system cache? That's generally a good idea after a major OTA.
---------- Post added at 01:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:57 AM ----------
You can also try clearing the app data for your browser and see if that helps but I would clear system cache first.

Oh dam it doesn't do it automatically for me lucky
Update: I finally solved the problem, the issue was that the automatic settings had one mistake, some random proxy was set when it should haven been empty and I somehow manage to missed it when checking, I just removed the proxy and the browsers and Gmail app started to work, Thank you guys
