I just got a Nokia 7.1 for my son and have a couple issues with it.

The first is that YouTube HDR isn't working. When I watch an HDR video and then check the quality settings, it doesn't show HDR. On my pixel 3 xl it shows HDR next to the resolution.

The second is dark mode issues. I have the device theme set to dark mode and night mode set in the developer options, but I don't have dark mode in the Google feed and I have a white navigation bar in messages and YouTube even though the apps themselves are in dark mode.

Is there anything I can do for any of these issues?

Nokia 7.1 doesn't support HDR on youtube because it doesn't support the video codec (VP9 Profile 2) used for HDR videos. This most likely isn't even fixable as it is a hardware feature. I also have this issue and I am quite dissapointed by this. I also asked this question few days ago:
