Theme on Stock Dialer

[skylerwolfe]

As a preface, I want to use the stock dialer as I sometimes need call recording.
When I use a third party app (Tasker) to automatically swap dark and light themes at daybreak and sunset, the dialer app and contacts within the dialer app don't change themes properly (see pics). I have to manually toggle the dark and light theme via the notification shade, then it looks correct. It's not a huge deal. Since I just turn it light in the AM and dark in the PM it is easy enough for me to do it manually and turn off the auto switching, but it does seem to be a "bug".

Two questions for you and jis.
1) What firmware version are you currently running?
2) Are we talking about this Tasker app from the Play Store? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.dinglisch.android.taskerm
And noted on the other issues you raised.

This problem is affecting all Asus proprietary system apps like File manager, Clock, etc.

I have this problem in all firmware versions from 110 till 137.
I didn't tested in 63, 68, 73, but it is probably issue in Asus A10 from the beginning.

I've been talking with him via PM. I did screen recording showing how to set up a simple theme toggle via Tasker and also recorded logs while doing so so they could follow along.

Fixed with 144 👍. Have made them aware that third party apps toggling theme does not work properly in a few stock apps still (gallery, file manager, calculator, clock).
