DarQ Reborn v2.4 - Xposed Force Dark, Navigation Scroll & Monet Dialog Update
Summary:
This release implements out-of-the-box Force Dark in Xposed mode, preserves settings list scroll and toolbar states on back navigation, introduces modern Monet-styled bottom sheet dialogs, adds a custom socials connections icon, and fixes background blur handling during bottom sheet interactions.
🛠️ Bug Fixes & Stability
- Xposed Force Dark Hook: Intercepts
debug.hwui.force_darkSystemProperties queries locally inside whitelisted application processes, tricking the Android rendering framework into enabling force-dark natively without requiring global system property write permissions. - Update Dialog UI Layout Fix: Fixed the "Update Available" bottom panel shifting/jumping to the top of the screen on launch, and prevented the bottom action buttons from being cut off during a partial swipe down.
🚀 UI & Performance Enhancements
- Scroll & State Preservation: Restores RecyclerView scroll state and toolbar expanded state on back navigation, preventing the settings list from jumping to the top.
- Monet-Styled Bottom Sheets: New dedicated donation and socials bottom sheet screens with Monet-colored card layouts matching your wallpaper's dynamic colors.
- Custom Socials Icon: Replaced the generic icon for the socials button with a custom vector profile-network connections icon.
- Transparent App Bar: Sets a transparent background on the main AppBarLayout to eliminate the solid band visible under window blur.
- Settings Chip Contrast: Explicit backgrounds applied to settings screen chips so they stand out from the page background.
📚 Documentation & Branding
- About Screen & FAQ Updates: Updated About screen developer credits and FAQ entries, and fixed a localized text spacing issue that caused words to render without spaces between them.
